Chapter 127 - Cute Little Bell
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
Thinking about the five thousand Liang that had been spent, Yun Qianyu couldn’t help but feel her heart ache. Feeling angry, she glared at Bai Yao and said with a sarcastic tone, “Sure. Your master is really thoughtful.”
In her mind, she believed that the money would be better spent on the Essence Cleansing pill.
There was no need for expensive clothing; as long as the clothes were comfortable, Yun Qianyu had no use for pretty clothes.
Yun Qianyu was in a bad mood and wanted Bai Yao to leave already. However, before she opened her mouth, Bai Yao said, “There are also ten sets of matching jewelry. Please confirm your acceptance, Miss Yun.”
Bai Yao waved his hand, and two of his men quickly carried a box forward. As soon as he opened it, the inside of the box shone brilliantly. Yun Qianyu looked down and saw that the box was full of jewelry.
Yun Qianyu’s first instinct was to hope that it wouldn’t cost too much.
Hua Mei and Little Bell didn’t think like Yun Qianyu, they only thought about the aesthetics of the jewelry, “They are so beautiful!”
“That’s right, big sister Yun’s dress is best matched with the set of white jade jewelry. It will surely go well with the dress.”
Bai Yao continued explaining, “Miss Yun, these ten sets of jewelry are worth twenty thousand Liang of silver. Please take note.”
Obviously displeased, Yun Qianyu raised her head and glared at Bai Yao, “Your master must have done this on purpose.”
Ignoring her accusation, Bai Yao shrugged his shoulders and said, “The items have been delivered. This servant shall excuse himself.”
After saying that, Bai Yao turned around and left. Behind him, Yun Qianyu had an ugly expression on her face as she ground her teeth and walked back into the house.
Hua Mei and Little Bell followed her, excitedly carrying the box of jewelry in.
Hua Mei selected the set of white jade jewelry from the box and put it on Yun Qianyu. She carefully placed a jade hairpin in her hair accompanied by a magnolia decoration piece carved from white jade. The earrings were water drop shaped jade pieces. There was also a pendant and a bracelet, but Yun Qianyu did not wear them because they were too cumbersome.
In the room, Hua Mei and Little Bell assessed Yun Qianyu happily. The more they looked at her, the more they thought that the clothes and jewelry fit Yun Qianyu very well.
“Big sister Yun is really beautiful. Even with scars on her face, she is still better than other people.”
As soon as Little Bell said that, Hua Mei glared at her unhappily. ‘Why are you poking at the young miss’s wounds?’
Realizing what she had said was wrong, Little Bell carefully took a look at Yun Qianyu. Not angry with her comments, Yun Qianyu slowly turned around and looked at Little Bell, “Little Bell, how old are you?”
“Big sister Yun, I’m 14.”
Little Bell answered her question obediently.
Yun Qianyu nodded and said, “Little Bell, shouldn’t you be heading home already?”
After witnessing Little Bell’s yellow spirit energy last night and the fact that she consumed elixir pills like beans, Yun Qianyu figured that she must come from a powerful family. With her current situation, Yun Qianyu felt that it was better for her to not get entangled with another powerful family, lest her situation becomes even messier.
Hearing her words, Little Bell immediately became sad. Tears filled her big eyes as she looked at Yun Qianyu like a pitiful lost puppy.
“Big sister Yun, you want to kick me out? Let me stay please! I’ll listen to you no matter what. I’ll even help you out, I’ll be your servant girl. I can serve you, I’ll do anything.”
In order to prove herself useful, Little Bell immediately started to sweep the floor and tidy things up in the room. In fact, she looked rather diligent in her work.
However, Yun Qianyu still didn’t want to take Little Bell in.
“Little Bell, you should go home. It’s too dangerous outside. You’re a naive girl and you would surely be taken advantage of.”
Yun Qianyu recalled the fact that this little girl had almost gotten herself killed by carelessly rushing into a battle the night before.
If Little Bell weren’t as lucky the next time, she might just get herself killed. That was why Yun Qianyu believed that Little Bell was better off going home.
