Before Xiyu and Teng Lan left the imperial city, they went to beg Ling Yifeng to let Shang Chuchu go, claiming that she had passed away, and then expelled her from the palace.
In order to make Xiyu happy, Ling Yifeng did what she wanted. On the night when Shang Chuchu left the palace, Xiyu went to see her off. She looked at Xiyu and didn't speak for a long time.
She put the baggage in her hand and turned to leave. Shang Chuchu looked at Xiyu's back and asked, "Why do you want to help me?"
Xiyu ignored it and continued walking. Shang Chuchu trotted up to Xiyu and stopped her.
"Get out of the way, I have nothing to say to you."
"You have to explain clearly why I treat you like this and you still help me?"
"Don't you really understand? I make friends for a lifetime, and I can betray them casually."
Shang Chuchu pulled Xiyu, and Xiyu shook her hand away and said, "I know what you want to say, and I will take good care of Huan'er. After all, she is also my nominal sister."
Shang Chuchu put the baggage on the ground, kowtowed to Xiyu and said, "I have so many words to say that I don't know how to say them, but I can just say, thank you."
After Shang Chuchu left the palace, he didn't know where to go, so he could only go on the road alone to the snowy land. With the money Xiyu gave him, he bought a small house, then made some embroidery and sold it on the street.
Looking back on all the past events, I can’t help but laugh. I was young and naive back then, but I made mistakes now because of my stubbornness. But my life now is pretty good, quiet, and at least I don’t need to fight anymore.
What she didn't expect was that Xiyu would come to her door one day and ask, as if visiting an old friend: "Are you okay?"
Shang Chuchu quickly put down what she was doing, wiped the chair with her sleeves, and asked Xiyu to sit down.
"You...how did you know I was here?"
"How could I not know that your embroidery is so beautiful that any girl in the snowy land can't help but buy a few more handkerchiefs."
Shang Chuchu said with a confident smile: "Yeah, think about it, when I started this business, I didn't expect it to be what it is today. I hired a few people, and when I saved enough money, I didn't need to set up a stall outside.
How great would it be to just buy a store and sell my stuff?"
Xiyu took Shang Chuchu's hand and said, "Actually, you are good at everything, really."
Shang Chuchu smiled and changed the subject: "Huan'er, how is she?"
"Well, she is very good, and she has Aqitai by her side."
Shang Chuchu lowered his head and wrote something in his hand.
"Aqitai, Aqitai, it doesn't sound like a Han name, but it's okay, as long as he truly loves Huan'er."
Xiyu couldn't find any topic and talked to Shang Chuchu. She put down a bag of silver and wanted to leave, but was stopped by Shang Chuchu. She put the money back into her hand and said: "If I are a sister, don't take this with me."
Give me."
Xiyu said nothing and took the money back. The two of them pushed it back and forth. Finally, Xiyu put the money on the table and said, "Okay, don't give it back to me. As sisters, there is nothing I can do to help you."
, this is the only thing I can do, just accept my kindness. Open your own shop as soon as possible, and all the money you earn will be used as a dowry for Huan'er's future marriage."
Shang Chuchu walked Xiyu to the door, held her hand and said, "If you have time, come over more often so that I can have a companion to talk to."
