Chapter 296 The Green and Yellow Doesn't Connect_1

Upon leaving the marinated food shop, Wei Ruo and Xiumei headed to the backyard of the Four Treasure House. The two establishments were close, so Wei Ruo had deliberately created a passageway at the back of both shops. This allowed her to move about more conveniently and aided the wet-nurse and Uncle Xu in looking after the places.

After changing inside their room, Wei Ruo and Xiumei set off for Caili Manor.

On the way, Xiumei asked Wei Ruo, "Miss, why are you so generous to Young Master Lu?"

Xiumei had accompanied Wei Ruo for many years and was very familiar with her mistress's attitude towards financial matters. Wei Ruo would only lavish her wealth under two circumstances: for the right people or for the right causes.

"I may not be able to avoid certain troubles. Young Master Lu is the reserve I keep for myself. I don't need anything from him now, but I can't rule out the possibility of needing him in the future," Wei Ruo replied.
