I am a leisurely rich woman in the world of cultivating immortals

Chapter 43 Chance Encounter
However, in fact, the old lady did not have much embroidery work to do. Instead, she let Yue Shu live her life leisurely while eating snacks most of the time.

Or when she had free time, she would make some money-making handkerchiefs, strings, sachets, etc. for herself and ask Tinghe's mother Zhang to sell them.

So this made Yue Shu feel even more guilty towards the old lady.

She decided to make a few more cushions and pillows before the holiday so that the old lady could sit more comfortably.

After Yue Shu finished making them, she gave them to the old lady. She looked at these heartwarming things and saw that Yue Shu looked a little haggard, and her heart felt even more pity for her.

"Silly child, you must be exhausted!"

In fact, she understood that eating and drinking while working and resting in free time were not problems at all. Instead, Yue Shu felt uneasy.

Yue Shu also acted coquettishly, and said with a smile as sweet as a silver bell:
"It's nothing, old lady."

"I'm just going to take a vacation, so I'll make something so you won't forget me."

The old lady looked at the little girl's coquettish look and felt kind to her. She touched her head and asked:

"Oh? Is there anywhere to go?"

"Yes, I have a very good relationship with Tinghe. She also wanted to go home, so I followed her. Besides, my uncle and aunt were also very kind to me."

"Tinghe is?"

"Ting He is the little palace maid who came to work with me in the old lady's palace. We are like sisters!"

"That's great. Bring her to me when the time comes."

The old lady knew that Yue Shu was a person with good vision. She thought it was good and the girl would not be too bad.

Yue Shu also thought that the old lady wanted to release a few senior palace maids from the palace and promote a few more, so she said cautiously:

"Ting He's father is Zhang Wei, the steward. He has always been working beside Long Jun and is a very loyal person. Ting He is also a very smart little girl when it comes to doing things."

Yue Shu also wanted to help Ting He, but she ignored him even though she saw Shaoyao standing there helpless and furious.

Shaoyao is always running around for Zijuan, trying to climb up the social ladder. Now that Zijuan has become Yulu's second-class maid, she can introduce Tinghe to the old lady!
"Oh? So she's Zhang Wei's daughter!"

"His daughter has grown up so much."

Of course the old lady knew who Zhang Wei was, after all, he was the personal attendant of the Dragon King of the Crystal Palace.

"As far as I can remember, Zhang Wei is a fair and smart kid. His daughter shouldn't be any worse."

"I was the one who arranged his marriage. Call Xiao Tinghe over. I want to see what his daughter looks like now."

The palace maids below immediately went to look for Ting He, only to see an uneasy look on her pretty little face. She bowed before raising her head.

"She's a beautiful child. No wonder you praised her in front of me."

The old lady nodded, and then thought of something and continued:
"Was it the last time you changed the incense in your room?"

"He's quite neat."

Ting He knew that Yue Shu was praising her in front of the old lady. She was filled with gratitude and smiled as she replied to the old lady:
"Reporting to the old lady, Yueyue and I are good sisters, that's why you are praising me!"

"Besides, serving the old lady is what I'm supposed to do."

Her personality was somewhat straightforward and lively, and the old lady liked her very much.

Then he turned to Yue Shu and said,
"You two have a very good relationship."

He also admired the big bulging purse of Ting He from Shuang and said:
"Your father is a very capable person in front of the Dragon King. You should also work hard and come to my side as soon as possible."

Ting He hurriedly thanked the old lady and kowtowed several times before he and Yue Shu retreated and prepared to leave the palace.

The two little girls were carrying large and small bags of luggage while chatting.

Yue Shu brought some handkerchiefs that she had made in her spare time some time ago and was ready to sell, and also some fabrics that seemed ordinary to the people in the palace, but were very exquisite to ordinary people. She planned to give these fabrics to Zhang, as a favor, at least so that she would not be seen as rude.

Then she stuffed some fruit wine and fairy cakes that the kitchen ladies had left for her in an attempt to curry favor with her into her luggage.

Ting He was very excited when she heard that the old lady praised her in person today.

"Now I am also a person known by the old lady!"

"This is all thanks to you, my good Yueyue!"

Then he looked at Yue Shu, who had too many things in her hands, which looked very heavy, and said:

"Give me some!"

Yue Shu smiled and shook her head, saying:
"Then you have your own abilities!"

Ting He turned around and was about to reply to Yue Shu, but unexpectedly saw a tall and upright young man walking towards them.

The young man was Sheng Yanqing. He had finally changed his clothes. He was no longer wearing patched clothes, but was now wearing normal clothes that were at least suitable for ordinary people.

The current situation is much better than before.

Sheng Yanqing was also very surprised when he looked at the two little girls. He paused and said:
"Yueyue, Tinghe, let me go with you!"

Yue Shu thought it was a coincidence and asked Sheng Yanqing:

"Brother Sheng, are you nearby too?"

Sheng Yanqing was silent for a moment and said:
"I have a mission."

Yue Shu also nodded and said nothing more.

She had only met this young man a few times and was not familiar with him, so she did not want to seek help from him.

"Let me do it!"

Sheng Yanqing opened his mouth and wanted to help Yue Shu with her luggage.

"It's okay, I can do it."

Yue Shu was also embarrassed to ask this young man to help her. Seeing that this young man had been accompanying her and Ting He, she was afraid that he would delay his work, so she said:

"Brother Sheng, it's okay. If you have something to do, you can go and do it."

Sheng Yanqing shook his head, and said to Yue Shu with a pair of cold eyes:
"It's not safe. I'll take you there."

These two little girls were not dressed like ordinary girls and they were so young, so he was worried.

Even the Crystal City next to the Crystal Palace is not without danger.

Ting He seemed to be nonchalant, but was just worried that it would be difficult to talk to Yue Shu now that there was a third person.

She rolled her eyes again, put the luggage in her hand on Sheng Yanqing, and said to Sheng Yanqing with a bright smile:

"Thank you, Brother Sheng!"

Then, as if he had gotten something good, he happily pulled Yue Shu aside and talked and laughed.

Yue Shu looked at Ting He's little tricks and shook her head with a helpless smile.

At this moment, he suddenly felt the weight on his body disappear. He turned around and found that it was the young man who took all his luggage from him.

Yue Shu looked at his expressionless cold face and said nothing. She just raised her foot and continued walking forward.

Sheng Yanqing looked at the two little girls talking and laughing. While they were not paying attention, he glanced in the direction of the Crystal Palace and raised the corners of his mouth again, but in a flash, he returned to his stern look.
