Chapter 1737: Chapter 1737
Gu Ya felt it didn’t matter. If the little wife wanted more, he would just tell Imperial Physician Yan beside Prince Ning. Those ointments were all prepared by Physician Yan, and he had plenty of them. Moreover, Physician Yan had just entrusted something to Gu Ya, thus owing him a favor. If Gu Ya went to ask for a few boxes of ointment, Physician Yan would certainly not refuse.
Su Yunjin wasn’t aware of the connection between Gu Ya and Imperial Physician Yan, nor did she know that the ointment came from Physician Yan beside Prince Ning. She thought Prince Ning had given it to Gu Ya directly. Not wanting to trouble Prince Ning, Su Yunjin said she didn’t need the ointment. Seeing the little wife refuse, Gu Ya merely stared at her for a while without saying anything. The matter passed just like that. Su Yunjin was indeed tired from a long day.
In the evening, the couple retired early to rest. Aunt Liang was anxious to leave, her belongings packed and ready for departure at dawn. Nᴇw ɴovel chaptᴇrs are published on 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡~𝙛𝙞𝙧𝙚~𝙣𝙚𝙩
Since Aunt Liang’s arrival, Su Yunjin had been kind to her, not treating her as a mere servant. Aunt Liang was aware of Su Yunjin’s kindness. When she expressed her wish to leave, Su Yunjin not only didn’t make things difficult for her but also arranged a carriage and travel expenses.
This gesture made Aunt Liang grateful. To show her thanks, she got up in the morning and, as usual, prepared breakfast for everyone. Aunt Liang looked tired; she had been worried all night that the assassins might return, fearing for her life until dawn. Only by leaving Su Yunjin’s family and severing ties could she feel safe.
Aunt Liang felt that nothing was more important than preserving her life. Even though Su Yunjin and Gu Ya treated her well and paid her more than others, she didn’t dare stay. Anxious to leave, she quickly finished breakfast and boarded the carriage Su Yunjin arranged for her, escaping hastily.
Originally, Aunt Liang wanted to say goodbye to Su Yunjin after she woke, but as Su Yunjin was slow to rise, Aunt Liang couldn’t wait any longer.
Without waiting for Su Yunjin, Aunt Liang packed her belongings, including the silver she had earned over the months and the gifts from Su Yunjin, taking everything with her.
As she left, Aunt Liang glanced back at the Gu Family, feeling a twinge of regret. It had been a rare opportunity to work in such a good position. The work wasn’t tiring, and the pay was generous. In Yangcheng, master’s wives were often haughty and seldom treated servants as fellow humans. However, Madam Gu and Master Gu were courteous and respectful. If not for the assassins, Aunt Liang would have wanted to work there for years, saving up even more silver. What a pity, she thought with a sigh as she departed.
Upon hearing that Aunt Liang had already left, Su Yunjin wasn’t surprised. Aunt Liang was determined to leave, and it was only a matter of time.
Aunt An and the wet nurse were indignant about Aunt Liang’s haste, wondering why she’d rush to leave despite the madam’s kindness. Even after a skirmish with a few troublemakers, Aunt Liang was too eager to roll up her bundle and flee.
No regard for the kindness shown.
Su Yunjin didn’t mind, smiling helplessly at Aunt An and the wet nurse’s anger. Aunt Bao, like Su Yunjin, merely shook her head with amusement.
