Chapter 6.2

This is not a professional translation; you have been warned. ʘ‿ʘ


Pan Er’s mood was down and looking at Aunt Qing’s eyes also revealed a kind of sad light.

After a while, she came back to her senses and helped Aunt Qing, who was kneeling in front of her.

“I think things have gone. Aunt, get up quickly. Pan Er can’t afford for you to kneel.”

Aunt Qing is nearly 40 years old. She has fair skin, willow eyebrows and phoenix eyes. She has a slight, abundant body. It can be seen that she was not bad looking when she was young. Unfortunately, she has been in a bad situation in recent years. Her face is covered with dust and frost, and there are fine and dense wrinkles on her eyes and forehead.

She was dressed in sandalwood colored dress, with her black hair tied behind her head. She was dressed neatly. There was a special charm between her speech and behavior, which was pleasing to the eyes.

“It’s not right to say you can’t afford it, it is only right to worship. After all, the girl will be the master of the servant.”

It is estimated that Pei Yong Chang said something to Aunt Qing that’s why she would have said so.

Pan Er asked Aunt Qing to sit down on the opposite kang table. She ordered Xiang Pu to prepare tea. When she saw aunt Qing’s cheek with bruise, she couldn’t help looking at it more.

Aunt Qing bowed her head and stroked her face. “Thanks to the girl’s order to find me, the killing that was instigated by the little woman was stopped. She said that I didn’t give money to my family, so she found an excuse to call me home and shut me up at home. She had to subdue me and I had to compromise to give all the money I earned to my family before she let me out.”

It’s also a coincidence that Pei Yong Chang sent people to find the family, only to know that Aunt Qing has gone home. After that, the people found aunt Qing’s husband’s house. They happened to meet Aunt Qing who was shut up at home and beaten.

Pei Yong Chang is rich and powerful in Yangzhou. Even the people in government have to give him some face, let alone a poor scholar. With only a little money, the family took the initiative to send Aunt Qing forward. In order to show their understanding, the family also signed the deed to sell the wife.

After hearing Aunt Qing’s story, Pan Er is glad that her idea is timely again. Otherwise, Aunt Qing’s life would have been in danger.

The two talked about some previous things that had happened. Pan Er also did not held back and revealed her situation to Aunt Qing. Aunt Qing is also aware of the advantages and disadvantages of everything, and now she couldn’t allow herself to regret it. In fact, she thought that as long as she could get out of that wolf den, she would be better anywhere.

In the afternoon, Pei Yong Chang came.

It’s said that the Chen family has decided the person to be sent to the palace. In addition to Pan Er, there is also the niece of the eldest madam.

However, if the niece of the first lady is carried into the East Palace as a concubine, Pan Er should follow the princess as a servant girl.

Though Pan Er sighed, she didn’t say anything on the surface.

Her plan is more than that. Otherwise, what’s the difference between her in this life and her in the previous life? If she still wants to be the servant of the crown princess, she will be pinched in her hand. After entering the palace and she carries the identity of a servant of the crown princess, it will not be easy for her to come out of the crown princess’s hands. She can only face it head on or stay down for a lifetime.

However, she will not tell Pei Yong Chang about these things. Only by her own means can Pei Yong Chang be used wholeheartedly.

At the same time, the two maids, Xiang Pu and Qing Dai, were in despair. Pei Yong Chang also said that if Pan Er entered the palace as a servant girl, she would not be able to bring people into the palace to serve her.

The reason why Aunt Qing can go with him is that the excuse that Aunt Qing is Pan Er’s nanny. This is the only relative around her, which is really inseparable. The second madam thought that this was just the way to clamp Pan Er. She planned to send it to the crown princess for her to hold, and then she would agree.

Even for a few days, the two girls were depressed.

They were originally bought by Pei Yong Chang to serve Pan Er. If they can’t stay with the girl, they don’t know where they will go in the future. It’s not uncommon for a young girl of their age to be bought and employed as a servant girl. It’s not uncommon for a bad girl to be exiled to a lower level of a prostitute’s house.

Pan Er looked at them for a few days and she couldn’t bear it anymore. She called them to talk to them.

“As long as you serve wholeheartedly and listen to me, I will surely bring you into the palace together.”

Two girls are first a happy the immediately became uneasy “The master said, at most can only take aunt.”

Aunt Qing also likes these two little girls. These days, they are down and down, but they never show jealousy and dissatisfaction.

In her whole life, she has seen many human tragedies that ordinary people can’t see. When she was a child, she met many little girls who were sold by her family when she was a child. In order to learn rules, it’s common for them to be starved and be beaten.

Like Pan Er in those days, like Xiang Pu and Qing Dai, the more sensible children are more unbearable it is.

She couldn’t help looking at Pan Er.

These days of reunion with Pan Er, she also felt that Pan Er’s character had changed greatly. But people are still that person, there will be such a big change is definitely a big change.

Thinking of all the things Pan Er’s family did and her mother selling her daughter without hesitation, she could understand the change. Let her see that the former Pan Er is too kind and weak. For such a child, it’s better to be sheltered. What should be done if abandoned?

People like them, they all fall into the hard water nest. If they can’t plan for themselves, there will be many hard days in the future, so she is also grateful for the change of Pan Er. She didn’t know that she had to swallow enough bitter water before she learned to plan for herself, not just because of those people in Yangzhou.

“That’s why I said that you should listen to me.” Then Pan Er beckoned and asked the two girls to come near and give them some orders.

The two girls are surprised and suspicious. They are unsure if they do this, will Master Pei agree that they go with the girl?

Aunt Qing smiled and said to Pan Er, “These two little girls alone are not enough.”.

Pan Er turned and smiled. “So, the Li Rongjia sent by the second madam, no matter what she say or do, you just listen and watch. The more arrogant she is, the easier we can do next step.”

This Li Rongjia is the Mama that the second wife recently sent to teach Pan Er rules. Probably, they are afraid that this chess piece Pan Er would come out of control. The “teaching the rules” was just a pretense to show dominance. She only came for two days, and Xiang Pu and other people were crying out of grievances, which was enough to see how difficult this person was.

What does this matter have to do with Li Rongjia?

The two girls were still ignorant, but when they saw that the girl and aunt had said so, they could only listen. They went to work according to Pan Er’s instructions.


T/N: Pan Er’s going to the palace soon ~

    1. I think because she was very timid before. She does not know how to grasp the heart of the prince. After some life lessons she started to fight for favor. 🙂

  1. Thank you so much, Pan er is lovely and makes you wants to root for her. It’s so original that the character who transmigrates doesn’t have unresolved grievances in the past life.
