Chapter 4: Ill-Intentioned Visit
“Dai Yue, how much money remains from this month’s allowance?”
Hearing her mistress ask, Dai Yue thought that she was concerned about not having any money left, so she promptly replied, “My Lady, don’t worry, it’s only the eighth of the month. We still have more than two taels of silver. Are you worried about whether or not we’ll have money to buy medicines if you’re sick?”
Two taels of silver……truly so little that it’s pathetic!
She’s the magnificent General’s Mansion’s second daughter, and is also the future Fifth Prince consort. Surprisingly, she’s downtrodden to this degree?
If this was in the past, the former owner would’ve certainly frowned with concern, but presently, Luo Qing Luan merely thought about it for a bit before looking at Dai Yue and saying to her, “Go help me do something. Find a silversmithing shop and have them make a set of acupuncture needles for me.”
She had examined her own body just now and discovered that due to constant malnourishment, her constitution was extremely poor. If she hadn’t applied acupressure to the crucial pressure points, she’s afraid that merely falling into the water this time would’ve caused her to be seriously ill.
Nursing her own body back to health as soon as possible was the priority. Otherwise, how was she going to have the strength to get revenge?!
Dai Yue was puzzled, “My Lady, what do you need acupuncture needles for? We only have a bit over two taels of silver left……”
She knew her maid was worried about them not having money and about how they were going to survive the last half of the month. Regardless of whether they needed to buy needle and thread, or other personal items, she still needed to fish out money. However, Luo Qing Luan wasn’t worried in the slightest. “Just follow my instruction. You don’t need to think about the money. First, help me forge some silver acupuncture needles.”
After hesitating a bit, Dai Yue had no other choice, but to nod. “Yes, My Lady.”
Even though she didn’t understand what her mistress wanted to do, she still had to do what she was told, and absolutely not go against orders.
The environment at the other room was entirely different from that of Luo Qing Luan’s.
Outside the window, bluish-green bamboos swayed about. Indoors, there was the subtle fragrance of orchids. On the gorgeous and soft big bed, Luo Qing Shuang’s complexion was pale. She nearly cried enough tears to soak herself in it. “Mother, it’s all because of that damned Luo Qing Luan. If it wasn’t for her, how would I fall into the water? Cough, cough……”
Concubine Wang Xue Ru watched her own daughter with an aching heart. The silk fabric in her hand was already twisted into a crumpled mess. She responded through clenched teeth. “That rotten girl. She surprisingly dared to pull you into the water?”
“Daughter originally already planned everything. Have her see Fifth Prince together with me and she’ll no doubt have the impulse to come at me and yell at me. At that time, I will instead have good reason to be together with Fifth Prince. Who would’ve thought……”
Thinking of this, Luo Qing Shuang was exceedingly angry. She didn’t expect that her sister could be this useless. After clearly seeing Fifth Prince kiss her and even said those difficult to listen to words, she was actually so broken-hearted that she ran away?
If it was herself, it would be strange if she didn’t charge over and slash the slut’s face!
“Furthermore, she clearly fell into the pond. Chun Mei saw everything. I even deliberately waited for a period of time before I went over there.” Luo Qing Shuang’s originally graceful and dainty face was not only as white as paper, it was even brimming with resentment. “Who would’ve thought that when we rushed over there, she was surprisingly alive and already climbed up the side of the pond……”
Wang Xue Ru knit her brows, “Didn’t this rotten girl not know how to swim?”
Luo Qing Shuang replied fiercely, “God knows what happened? Truly abominable. How could she not drown this time! I even personally took action. Instead, I was actually……”
Anger bubbling forth in her heart and mind, she pulled Wang Xue Ru’s hand and acted like a spoiled child, “Mother, you need to help your daughter vent her anger! I must marry Fifth Prince. Help me kill her!”
After thinking about it, Wang Xue Ru lowered her voice and replied, “Don’t be impatient. Since your plan failed this time, we’ll need to be even more careful. After all, that girl is still your sister in name. Moreover, she’s even the main wife’s daughter in this General’s Mansion. However, I will help you and go teach her a lesson. I can still score off of her for you first.”
……
Dai Yue was quick indeed. It’s been only two days when Luo Qing Yuan received the acupuncture needles she brought back.
“My Lady, I originally gave the master craftsman the same instruction that you gave me. However, the master craftsman said that it would require too much time and skill. He would need at least fifty taels of silver. I only brought two taels, so then……”
Luo Qing Luan smiled and consoled her, “Forget it. Even though there are only five needles, they are still usable. When we have more money in the future, we’ll just make an even better set.”
This set of silver acupuncture needles inside the wooden box was made with minimal workmanship. Moreover, the material was of the poorest quality. However, she knew her own current circumstances. Without money, everything becomes difficult to manage. Yes, she needed to nurse herself back to health as quickly as possible, then she could properly think of a way to earn money.
Just as Luo Qing Luan sent Dai Yue outside and got ready to use her Ghost Hand Nine Needles technique, she heard the sound of footsteps at her door. A pretentious voice sounded, “Qing Luan, I heard that you were ill. Father’s concubine came to see you.”
Her voice had not stopped when she already came in.
Luo Qing Luan looked up and only felt that she was a moving assemblage of opulence. Concubine Wang Xue Ru wore a smile on her face. Her pearl hairpin was even making jingling sounds. She brought a servant girl with her and they entered the room together.

Thank you very very much. I totally love this novel very much.
I like it how she need to make her own needles and started from poor quality since she doesnt has money not suddenly has needle in her hands and in best quality. She started from zero without anything from her space. More realistic for the transmigrated story for me. Although transmigration it self is un realistic 😀
Thank you for this new novel <3
its like people are a deer in headlights when they dont know how to swim. even a dog knows how to doggie paddle. you dont need to know how to actually know how to do a swimming stroke though it would help immensely
Thank you! 😍😍😍😍
