328 Origins

“Don’t worry, miss. Yang Lizheng stayed to have a chat with Doctor Sun anyway. I’ll go to the kitchen later to wrap some of the rice cakes and send them over.”

Yue Jiaojiao nodded, then picked the thickest letter and opened it.

Li Xiangjun, who was sitting opposite her, was staring at the back of the letter as if she wanted to see the content.

“Zhao Zhan has safely arrived at Bei City.”

!!

Yue Jiaojiao instructed.

At the start of the letter, Zhao Zhan wrote down his location.

Yue Jiaojiao read the letter very quickly.

Other than the first sentence she said, she didn’t say anything else.

When the last letter was opened, the contents of the letter fell on the table with a thud.

“Did he buy this for you? Although this hairpin looks a little rough, its appearance is very unique.”

Yue Jiaojiao picked up the hairpin on the table.

Seeing the heart-shaped pearls on it, she smiled sweetly.

Zhao Zhan… This man’s brain seemed to have a special Yue Jiaojiao space in it, which stored all the random things she said to him.

He was always able to remember these trivial things, and then, at a certain moment, he would turn them into reality and send them to her.

“Did he say when he would be back in his letter? When he left, he said that he would be able to catch up with the busy farming season soon. It’s already April, he should be on his way, right?” “Bei City is so far away from here. If he were to set off now, he wouldn’t make it back in time.” Madam Qin nagged.

“Zhao Zhan didn’t say when he’ll be back.” Yue Jiaojiao had already finished reading the letter and put it aside again. “But I don’t think he’ll miss the appointment.”

After trying a few times, Shang realized that without Zhao Zhan, the workshop had become an even more difficult bone to chew. Recently, there have been no movements from them.

Yue Jiaojiao had asked her family’s attendants to take a look near the city gate of Wangshan. Shang’s people, who had been loitering there from time to time, had recently retreated.

Shang must be harboring some other bad ideas.

“Ah, I hope he can come back soon.”

Madam Qin was anxious.

Yue Jiaojiao had just gotten pregnant, so her body needed all the care.

In the future, if she started to feel uncomfortable and couldn’t eat or sleep well, Madam Qin would feel a little guilty if her husband wasn’t at home.

Li Xiangjun, who was sitting opposite her, felt that the wonton in her bowl was no longer fragrant. “Jiaojiao, it seems that Zhao Zhan’s journey was smooth. He reached Bei City in such a short time.”

“No, Zhao Zhan said that he and Fang Tianliu had encountered danger many times. Fortunately, Fang Tianliu was familiar with the town and has been constantly changing routes with Zhao Zhan.

“Zhao Zhan also said that Fang Tianliu rode a horse until his thighs were scraped and scabbed. It sounded tragic.”

Li Xiangjun pursed her lips and didn’t speak.

“Oh right, Madam Qin, Fang Tianliu specially wrote a letter to ask me for a favor,” Yue Jiaojiao said softly. “The day after tomorrow is Tomb Sweeping Day. Fang Tianliu is in Bei City and can’t come back. Can you go out buy some paper money and burn it for Fang Tianliu’s parents the day after?”

“That is very thoughtful of him. I’ll follow Lizheng to town tomorrow.” Madam Qin’s face was full of emotion. “It just so happens that I was planning to go too. I should pay respects to all your parents as well.”

Bei City was too far away, and that place was closely related to Fang Tianliu’s father’s death.

Fang Tianliu didn’t want to pay his respects to his parents in Bei City.

“Jiaojiao,” Li Xiangjun hesitated. “I know where his parents are buried. I’ll bring the paper money from Huai County and pay my respects to their graves the day after tomorrow.”

Li Xiangjun lowered her head.

“I can give you Fang Tianliu’s address in Bei City. Madam Qin and I will still follow Fang Tianliu’s request for the Tomb Sweeping Day Festival.” Yue Jiaojiao looked at him. “If you want to go to his parent’s graves, you can write a letter to Fang Tianliu before you go. I won’t be participating in this matter.”

Li Xiangjun was in Huai County. Whether she was going or not was not up to Yue Jiaojiao.

The reason she said that was to give Xiangjun a chance to talk to Fang Tianliu before doing anything else.

If it was something else, Yue Jiaojiao wouldn’t have minded.

However, this matter was related to Fang Tiandian’s parents. Even if Li Xiangjun wanted to reconcile with Fang Tianliu, Yue Jiaojiao didn’t want the other party to use this as a starting point.

It was a little like she was deliberately stabbing people’s hearts with a sword.

“I know it’s my fault,” Li Xiangjun laughed bitterly. “I was definitely in the wrong. Fang Tianliu and I had it going well.”

The Fang family’s parents had never treated her badly.

She could treat the other party with a heavy heart, but she couldn’t directly erase their kindness to her.

“It’s time to make a decision. I was just being a little overcautious just now,” Li Xiangjun consoled herself and then regained her spirits. “Jiaojiao, if there’s nothing else, I’ll have to be heading back now. Since it’s still early, I’ll pack up my things and go to Huai County with my parents.”

Yue Jiaojiao stood up to send her off. “Do you want Fang Tianliu’s address?”

Li Xiangjun’s body froze and she shook her head after a moment of silence. “Forget it, it’s impossible to fix the damage between the both of us.”

After Li Xiangjun left, Madam Qin, who was standing beside Yue Jiaojiao, said, “My lady, why do I feel like Miss Li is about to marry someone else?”

Yue Jiaojiao furrowed her brows. “How did you know?”

“Didn’t you notice the handkerchief Miss Li was holding?”

Madam Qin said with certainty, “Although I’m old, I’m not muddleheaded. The fabric of the handkerchief in her hand was made in Jiangnan. It’s called the auspicious colorful cloud brocade.

“This fabric is very precious, and we can only get a few pieces of it in a year. Although the color is not particularly bright, everyone will always seek it.

“As time passed, it became that if a man truly loved the other party, if he could afford it, he would definitely spend a lot of money to buy a little of this cloth.

“This thing is even more precious than a wild goose.”

Yue Jiaojiao asked, “Fang Tianliu’s family runs a bodyguard agency. Perhaps the Fang family went to Jiangnan to find this?”

“Pardon my rudeness, but I think the Fang family would not have heard of this.

...

“Those who know of this cloth are all of noble status and power. I only know of it because back then, your father had always nagged that you did not need this kind of thing from your husband’s family. He even planned to save up a piece for you every year to make a shuttlecock for you to play with.

“Besides, didn’t Miss Li just say that she wanted to move to Huai County with her family? Miss, do you think she’s going to get married from Huai County to Jiangnan?

“To be able to use this kind of cloth to make a handkerchief… It must mean that the person she is going to marry has high status.”

Yue Jiaojiao stared at the door.

Li Xiangjun would never marry such a person!
