The crazy daily life of the mistress

And they did a great job.

The first thing Lu Yi thought of was their injuries. It was as if a sharp claw had scratched her heart fiercely, causing unbearable pain. "You are all injured. Go bandage your wounds first."

Xiaolan has taken out all the medicines and gauze. The white gauze, stained with blood, looks like red plum blossoms blooming in the snow, which is shocking.

Everyone helped each other apply medicine. The scene was like a group of wounded birds snuggling together in the cold winter, licking each other's wounds and seeking a little warmth.

Shopkeeper He and Xiaoqing only realized from Daqing's words that it was the Duke who wanted to kill Lu Yi.

Their faces turned pale in an instant, like the cold wind in winter, icy and bone-chilling.

Their eyes were filled with shock and anger, as if they were about to ignite a ball of fire and burn the Duke to ashes.

Xiaolan cried as she applied medicine to Lu Yi, saying, "They are so mean. The young lady has never had a good day since she married into their family!"

Xiaolan looked at the wounds on Lu Yi's body and couldn't stop crying.

Xiaolan felt sorry for Lu Yi. She knew that she was a good woman and should not be treated like this.

She wanted to protect her so much, but she was just a maid and could do nothing.

Lu Yi said: "It's okay, I'm fine, right?"

Lu Yi's tone was calm, but Xiaolan could tell that she was in pain.

She didn't want to make Xiaolan worry, so she forced herself to smile. Xiaolan knew that the young lady was a very strong girl, but even the strongest people can sometimes be overwhelmed.

She didn't know how long Lu Yi could hold on.

However, this place has been exposed, and I don’t know if Zhan Shuo will find trouble with them.

Xiaolan was very scared and she didn't know what to do.

Lu Yi said: "Don't worry, I have a way."

A hint of determination flashed in Lu Yi's eyes.

She knew that now she could only rely on herself. She couldn't let Xiaolan get hurt, nor could she let Daqing, Xiaoqing and Zhan Shixuan's secret guards suffer with her.

She said to He Qingshu, "Manager He, I'm so sorry for causing you trouble. I didn't expect you to know martial arts."

Shopkeeper He didn't know what to say, so he just smiled and said, "A little bit."

Lu Yi added, "Look, someone wants to kill me, and it's a powerful Duke. Think carefully. He will definitely cause trouble for this shop in the future. I may not be able to protect you. You should find another safe place to live tomorrow."

Her voice was full of helplessness and worry. She knew that her current situation was very dangerous and she didn't want to implicate innocent people.

He Qingshu said, "Madam, don't worry, this shop shouldn't be in trouble."

There was confidence and determination in his voice.

He knew that he had to protect Lu Yi now. This was his responsibility.

Lu Yi asked: "Why?"

Her eyes were full of doubt and confusion. She didn't know why He Qingshu was so confident.

He Qingshu said, "Yes, this shop originally belonged to the eldest son. Later, when he knew you wanted to buy the shop, he asked me to transfer it to you at a low price."

Lu Yi asked in surprise: "Are you also Zhan Shixuan's man?"

He Qingshu replied: "Yes, ma'am."

Only then did Lu Yi realize that Zhan Shixuan had done so many things for her without her knowledge.

She used to think that the Queen Mother was the first person to treat her well, but now it seems that Zhan Shixuan is the one who really treats her well.

Moreover, he treated her well without asking for anything in return. How could she let down such a person?

She decided to go to the palace at dawn and ask the Queen Mother to allow her to divorce, so that she could be free and be with Zhan Shixuan openly in the future!

The decision was so hard for her because she knew what it meant.

She would lose her position, her reputation, and the respect of her family, but she also knew that if she didn't do this, she would never be able to achieve true happiness.

Zhan Shuo's men returned to the Duke's Mansion.

Zhan Shuo looked at the wounds on their bodies and understood in his heart that Zhan Shixuan must have sent secret guards to protect Lu Yi.

He secretly sighed in his heart that his intention to kill Lu Yi would probably be known to Zhan Shixuan soon.
