Ever since Qi De Seng sent over the five to six mahogany chests to Chu Jin Yao, her life could no longer be peaceful.
Everybody wanted to know what the chests were filled with. Qi De Sheng had already sent two chestfuls of satin to Chu Jin Yao that day, so why was there a need to gift another batch?

“How can this be a joke! I am really sincere in asking Young Lady be a shareholder. Even though the monthly income might not be much, it is still able to let Young Lady earn some packet money. Young Lady does not need to worry about the seed money as before I came to the Marquis Residence, I have already split your gifts into two, one part was carried to Old Furen, and the other half was converted into shares, I have brought the documentation over.” After speaking, Qi De Sheng took a stack of paper out, “Take a look Young Lady, it is all here.”
Chu Jin Yao looked at Qi De Shen faintly, she almost thought that Manager Qi had lost his mind. These merchants were very particular, and there were some that were willing to return the favour so Chu Jin Yao was able to understand when Qi De Sheng wanted to gift her a generous thank you gift. However, who would gift other a part of their living income? Much less that she was an outsider and had saved Manager Qi’s son by coincidence. One feared that even if Manager Qi’s brother were to lend a hand, he would not do such a thing.

The next day Chu Jin Yao went over to Madam Zhao’s place to report before returning to her room and did needlework by the window. Now that her hands were suddenly no longer tight, she not only had money, but also lots of silk, threads and colourful fabrics that could fill two entire chests. Previously, she had nothing on hand and thus was unable to do anything, but now that she had suddenly become wealthy, Chu Jin Yao had the mood to make the clothes she liked.
She used to fiddle with these things in the past, but unfortunately, the Su family was poor and thus the sisters’ clothes had to be sewn and mended until it could no longer be worn. Upon returning to the residence of Marquis Chang Xing, the Chu family had money, but none of it belonged to her as she relied on the common fund, so how could she have excess fabric to fiddle around with? Now, things had finally improved. She had two boxes of fabrics, so no one could criticise whatever she did.

Tang Xin Yi was kneeling on the floor when he heard those words, and there was surprise on his face. Thoughts quickly flew by his mind. Could there be a incredible person in TaiYuan? Else how could one be able to provoke such anger from the Crown Prince. However, on his trip to TaiYuan, he had not neglected anyone…
As Tang Xin Yi was unable to figure out the reason, he continued to prostrate on the floor and confessed his guilt humbly, “It is this servant’s fault. This servant is stupid and did not know what mistake was done. May Your Highness clarify.”
Just an FYI…

Upon meeting Marquis Chang Xing, he would then have to meet the provisional and prefecture officials. There were endless troubles that one did not know how long one would be delayed. Tang Xin Yi thought about the Crown Prince, whose situation was still unknown, and really did not have the mood to accompany these officials and lords to casually talk, but due to the situation, he had no choice but to endure. Tang Xin Yi resisted his impatience and accompanied Marquis Chang Xing to play a round of TaiJiGua. Marquis Chang Xing still wanted to probe about Tang Xin Yi’s purpose of arrival when suddenly there were sounds of footsteps. A young soldier-like man quickly ran in, uncaring that there were visitors present, and hurriedly spoke, “GongGong, there is a letter.”
TaiJiGua (太极卦) – 1. Refers to a type of breathing technique which is an internal martial art to resist force with force (redirecting the attacking force back to the aggressor). 2. Implied meaning, in the novel it is used to describe the act of “pushing” the topic or responsibility to others and others will resist, deflect, channel the force back or to another victim and so on. Modern terms: Passing the buck.

Xiao Lin-zi laughed in agreement. When the Crown Prince was just injured, the few of them did their best to hide it for about a month. The Army Commander-in-Chief of Great Tong gradually became suspicious. He wondered if the eunuchs were up to some tricks and insisted on seeing the Crown Prince in person. When he finally saw him in person, the dark clouds in the General’s heart became heavier.
It was over. The Crown Prince was on his territory, led troops to attack the Tartars and was seriously injured and unconscious.

Qin Yi got up and supported his head with his hand as he frowned as he endured the waves of dizziness. After the dizziness finally passed, he looked at his warm hands that could touch things and could not get used to it for a while.
He had returned just like this?
