Chapter 205 - 205 Why Don’t You Buy Me, Madam Liu?

205 Why Don’t You Buy Me, Madam Liu?

Lin Suisui’s suggestion was also agreed upon by Yuan Niang. Compared to Mrs. Luo and the others, Yuan Niang, who had grown up in Cloud Mountain City and lived in the prosperous northern general’s residence, understood the difficulties of women seeking medical treatment better.

Actually, it was ironic that women like Mrs. Luo, who were ordinary civilians, didn’t have so many rules.

If she was sick, it was reasonable for her family to invite a doctor to treat her.

However, in a place like the General’s Mansion, if a woman was sick, she would be very careful. Generally speaking, they wouldn’t invite unfamiliar doctors over. They had to take her pulse through a handkerchief. They even had to hang a curtain.

When the doctor asked about the patient’s condition, he had always been vague and didn’t dare to ask too clearly, since he was afraid that he would attract criticism. How could this treatment save people? It was more like harming people!

“Why do you feel unhappy?” Lin Suisui had actually realized that something was wrong with Yuan Niang since she returned, especially now. The closer she got to Cloud Mountain City, the worse her condition became.

“I heard that we’re going to the city tomorrow.” When Yuan Niang heard Lin Suisui’s concern, she hesitated for a moment but didn’t hide it from her. “I definitely can’t go to the nunnery outside to recuperate now.

“But if we return to the general’s residence now, I’m afraid…”

Actually, she wasn’t the most worried about herself now. She was more worried about An’er. Previously, no matter how ruthless they were, she could always avoid it!

But An’er was different.

An’er was so young and naive. Moreover, with her status, if Madam reached out now, it would be easy for her to snatch An’er away from her.

She didn’t want to return to the general’s residence anymore!

However, her current identity was that of a concubine in the General’s residence. If she didn’t go back, what could she do?!

“Do you really not want to return to the general’s residence?!” Lin Suisui looked at Yuan Niang and thought for a moment before asking in a low voice, “You have to think carefully. If you really take this step, there’s no way out!”

Actually, Lu Ze had mentioned a solution to Yuan Niang previously, but because Yuan Niang had never really expressed her stance, Lin Suisui didn’t say anything.

After all, what if Yuan Niang didn’t really want to leave the general’s residence?! If she told Yuan Niang that she was willing to help her escape from the general’s residence, wouldn’t she be looking for trouble?!

“You have a way?!” Yuan Niang’s originally listless and dejected eyes immediately lit up. She stared at Lin Suisui with hope, like a drowning person who had encountered driftwood. She reached out and grabbed her sleeve. “Madam Liu, I’ve already decided. I don’t intend to return to the general’s residence anymore. I don’t want An’er to go back either!

“To be honest, if An’er and I return to the general’s residence now, in less than a month, we will completely disappear from this world! It doesn’t matter if I die, but An’er… She’s a child I risked my life to give birth to. I don’t want her to leave this world so early!”

Yuan Niang looked at Lin Suisui with unprecedented determination.

“I definitely won’t change my decision. If possible, please help me!”

“You’re a concubine that the general who stabilizes the north took in on a whim. There’s no official documents, so the procedures aren’t complicated. You just need the general to give you a concubine letter and you can go home.

The difficult one to settle was An’er.

Therefore, if you want to end it, you have to end it decisively! To the outside world, just say that the young lady from the real general’s residence had already died early on and that the one staying by your side now is an orphan girl you brought from the refugee camp to comfort you!

This way, in the concubine’s book, it can be written that you were unable to protect her and caused the young lady of the general’s residence to die. That was why the general resented you and chased you out!

“But if we really arrange it like this, An’er will completely lose her status as the daughter of the General!”

Actually, this matter wasn’t complicated. It was just a matter of Pei Qian’s approval! Previously, when Pei Qian sent Yuan Niang over, he had promised that if Yuan Niang really decided to leave the general’s residence, he was willing to help fulfill her wish.

However, the real difficulty lay in Yuan Niang’s thoughts and plans.

“No, it can’t be a concubine’s letter.” The woman seemed to have thought of something and suddenly looked at Lin Suisui as she shook her head desperately. “I can’t go back. If I leave the general’s residence, I can only go home!

With my parents’ personality, they will definitely sell me, or even An’er, again!

I’ve already been sold by them once. This time…”

The woman thought about how difficult it would be for her to leave the family alone. Then, she thought about how even if she did, she would still be implicated by her parents and family. She gritted her teeth and looked up at Lin Suisui as she asked seriously, “Why don’t you buy me, Madam Liu!”

Lin Suisui was completely stunned by the woman’s request. She took a long time to come back to her senses and subconsciously objected, “How can that work?!”

After interacting with Yuan Niang for so long, she actually treated Yuan Niang as a good friend now. Now that she heard that Yuan Niang wanted her to buy her…

This was really too much for her to accept.

“Don’t you want to open a medical center?! When the time comes, you’ll definitely have to buy workers from the brokerage! Since you have to buy them, why can’t you buy me?!

I know that you’re doing this for my own good!

But now, if you really want to help me, buy me! I’m willing to sign a death contract and repay your kindness in this lifetime. I can do anything. In the past, I ran a shop with my parents. Later on, in the general’s residence, I also gained some understanding of the wealthy families in Cloud Mountain City!

I can do anything you want me to do. At least, I’m much more useful than servants that are just bought!

Only then can I have something to rely on and not be sucked dry by my parents and brothers again! I’ve already been sold by them once. Why can’t I choose a buyer this time?!

“I’ll help you work. I’ll do anything you want! This way, I can have a stable environment and raise An’er! This is the best arrangement for me now!”

Seeing that Lin Suisui didn’t agree, Yuan Niang continued to explain to her. Yuan Niang’s expectant gaze made Lin Suisui a little conflicted. Lin Suisui hesitated for a moment before saying, “I-I have to go back and discuss it with my husband.”

Don’t be so pessimistic. There might be another way to resolve your current predicament!”
