The queen of the last days became a maid and just wanted to lie down

How could Liu Moyan pay attention to a maid's thoughts? When she was tidying up the jewelry box, she suddenly remembered that the Grand Princess' birthday banquet would be in two days.

At the banquet, she would be introduced to the princess because of her relationship with Pei Shuo. She was very happy at that time, after all, marrying the son of the Duke of Zhenguo was the dream of countless girls.

A fourth-rank official's wife like her was not qualified to be a member of the Zhenguo Mansion, but when her mother was pregnant with her, she was burning incense with the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo. The wife of the Duke of Zhenguo was pregnant at the time and accidentally fell, giving birth on the spot.

Her mother was kindhearted and helped the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo to give birth, regardless of her pregnancy. This allowed Pei Shuo to be born safely. The wife of the Duke of Zhenguo was grateful to her mother, and the two became close friends.

After she was born, Lady Zhengguo often brought her with her. She and Pei Shuo were childhood sweethearts.

In their previous life, two people loved each other, so getting married was a natural thing for them.

The Grand Princess' matchmaking was just the icing on the cake.

But now it’s no longer possible. She has changed her mind and will never marry Pei Shuo.

She even wanted to avoid the banquet at the Grand Princess's Mansion and completely sever her relationship with Pei Shuo.

Then all the things he gave should be returned.

Not only that, she also thought carefully about what she had given Pei Shuo.

After thinking about it, it seems that they are just some insignificant little gadgets, and it won’t matter if they are thrown away.

Liu Moyan breathed a sigh of relief and urged Xu Yao to hurry up.

Seeing that resistance was futile, Xu Yao obediently returned the things. Before leaving, he asked, "If the young master refuses to accept them, what should we do with these things?"

Liu Moyan thought of his character. Of course, it was impossible to take back something that he had given away. But she gritted her teeth and said firmly, "Anyway, you just have to send it back. If he doesn't want it, you can't take it back."

Xu Yao was delighted when she heard this. Based on what she had judged about the young master's character over the past few days, he would definitely not want these things.

If neither side wants it, she will take it to the pawn shop and exchange it for silver.

With this idea in mind, Xu Yao went to the Duke Zhenguo's Mansion with the box, but was told that the young master had not returned.

"Then where is your young master? I will go find him."

Anyway, she had to hear the young master say with his own mouth that he didn't want these things, otherwise how could he swallow them with a clear conscience.

The servant thought for a moment and said, "You might as well go to Shunhe Road to look for it. My young master occasionally drinks with his friends at the restaurant on that street."

It was such a long street, and she had to look for the house one by one. This boy was kind, but not much.

Xu Yao went up Shunhe Road with the treasure box in his arms. It was dinner time. Every shop on the street that served food emitted a faint aroma that tempted passers-by.

Xu Yao saw someone selling candied fruits on the roadside and immediately bought a small bag.

I was eating while walking, and after a few steps I saw someone selling buns and felt greedy, so I bought a few buns.

She walked slowly, not in a hurry at all. She was holding the treasure box and looked like a silly girl, so she was quickly noticed.

There were people coming and going on the street, and Xu Yao didn't care if anyone was following him at first, but as he walked, his keen intuition for danger in the last days emerged.

She suddenly squatted down and pretended to pick up something, and sure enough, she found someone following her.

She smiled, stood up, turned around and walked into a restaurant, going straight to the second floor with a swagger.

There were many customers in the store, and the more open she was, the less attention she received.

When she went up to the second floor, a door suddenly opened on the left and someone grabbed her and dragged her inside.

The man reeked of alcohol and was obviously drunk. He grabbed her and refused to let go. "Where did you come from, little girl? You are so cute and lovely. Come on, come on, have a drink with me, your brother."

There were several young men in the room, all dressed in silk and satin, looking like the sons of wealthy families.

They were all drunk, with red faces and sleepy eyes, and I'm afraid they couldn't recognize each other.

The man who grabbed Xu Yao wanted to pull her into his arms and forced her to drink with him. Xu Yao was just about to teach him a lesson, but the man's hand was grabbed by someone else and he let go of Xu Yao in pain.

Xu Yao was saved, but the man kicked the man who flirted with her away. "Li Muchen, you are so good, flirting with a girl in public."

Li Muchen was kicked, and the pain sobered him up. He stood up with difficulty when he saw the person coming. "Pei Shuo, why are you everywhere? What's your relationship with her? I just invited her to have a drink, what does it have to do with you?"

Pei Shuo also drank and had a strong smell of alcohol on his body, but even though he was drunk, his eyes were clear and clean, and his rebellious temperament made him stand out from the crowd.

He didn't even look at Xu Yao, he just sneered and said, "It doesn't matter who she is, I just can't stand people like you bullying girls."

As he said this, he nodded to Xu Yao, motioning her to go first.

He didn't even pay attention to who the girl who helped was.

Xu Yao obeyed and left immediately.

There was a noise coming from the room, but it seemed like someone else came to mediate and pulled the two apart.

They didn't end up making a scene. After a while, Xu Yao saw Pei Shuo coming downstairs in a bad mood, carrying a jar of wine.

What happened just now made Xu Yao think more highly of Pei Shuo. He had thought that he was an arrogant young man from a noble family, but he didn't expect that he would stand up for a strange girl.

Xu Yao followed behind him, a little confused. What happened in the previous life that made the young lady of the Liu family suddenly change her mind and refuse to marry him?

Pei Shuo was holding a glass of wine, drinking as he walked. He was in a very bad mood. It seemed that Liu Moyan had hurt him deeply.

After walking out, Xu Yao found that the person who was following her had disappeared, so she followed Pei Shuo quietly from behind.

After walking a short distance, Pei Shuo led Xu Yao into an alley, turned around and asked her: "Why are you following me?"

Xu Yao raised her head and smiled at him, and Pei Shuo then remembered who she was.

"Young Master, my wife asked me to return these things to you."

As she spoke, she opened the treasure box, revealing the jewels inside.

Pei Shuo looked at her, then at the jewelry inside, and his mood became even worse, and he directly smashed the wine jar.

He seemed very angry, but he tried to suppress his anger and not get angry at a little girl. He only questioned her: "You are her servant, tell me, what happened to your daughter? Why did she break up with me for no reason? I really don't know what happened that day. She was wronged. I couldn't do anything to the daughter of the Zhao family, but I beat her brother to vent her anger. Tell me, what does she want?"

How could she know what the young lady of the Liu family wanted? She just wanted to hear Pei Shuo say in person that she would never take back the things she gave away, and she wanted to embezzle this windfall.

But after thinking about it, Xu Yao pretended to be weak and timid and shook her head, "I only came to serve the young lady later. The two maids who served her before were sent away. If you want to know the reason, you might as well start with them."

Pei Shuo thought about it and it made sense. He turned around and was about to leave. Xu Yao quickly stopped him and said, "What about these jewelry?"

Pei Shuo looked at the jewelry and was silent for a while.

Just say you don’t want it anymore, and say that classic line: I won’t take back what I’ve given away, so if she doesn’t want it, just throw it away.

Xu Yao looked at him eagerly, but Pei Shuo said, "Please keep it for me for now and hide it from your wife. After I make peace with her, you can return it to her."

Xu Yao cursed in his heart, thinking that his expectations were in vain.
