could finish his words, Cai Wei had already left without looking back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Master, your servant…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He turned towards the horse carriage, but before he could finish his words, the carriage had also moved away, leaving him standing alone pitifully in the middle of the long street…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since Bafu Restaurant opened earlier today, and there were ample skewers to sell, when the accounts were checked at night, the accountant gave everyone a pleasant surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Two bosses, our profit from Bafu Restaurant today is twenty-one taels of three money!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Wow—Terrific—”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The entire store cheered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The shopkeepers, chef, accountants, errand boys, even several family servants of the Mu Family couldn’t contain their excitement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was because the young lady had said that from now on, everyone’s salary would be linked to the restaurant’s income.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The higher the profit from the restaurant, the more everyone would earn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hence, despite being tired, no one was bothered by it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead, they hoped that business could boom and ideally, bring in a fortune every day!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After balancing the accounts, Cai Wei instructed Aunt Liu to prepare a pot of dumplings in the kitchen for everyone’s late-night snack while she returned to the back house.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Given the various incidents that happened today, her mother must be upset.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had to go back and comfort her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Indeed, as soon as she walked through the door, she saw her mother listlessly sitting under a lamp, indifferently sewing a half-completed horse-face skirt while Cai Fei attended to her cautiously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon seeing Cai Wei return, Cai Fei hurriedly said, “Older sister, it’s a good thing you’re back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Please persuade mother.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mother has such a narrow heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just because of a few casual comments from the main house, she’s been upset for the whole afternoon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No matter how we try to convince her, it’s no use!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With tear-rimmed eyes, Lady Du said, “It doesn’t matter what others think of me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I just don’t want your father to be laughed at outside and you girls, who are getting to the age of marrying, to be affected by these unfounded things.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If that happens, it’s my big sin.” As she spoke, tears rolled down her cheeks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Laughing, Cai Wei said, “Mother, you’re thinking too much.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the saying goes, ‘truth can’t be falsified, and falsehood can’t be proven.’ No matter how they magnify those baseless things, they can’t convince people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why do you insist on thinking about it?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wiping her tears, Lady Du said, “I understand all these principles, but they’re making me feel suffocated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There’s another thing: Will your father be annoyed with us if he finds out the matter of the main house’s family being put into prison has something to do with us?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sitting down, Cai Wei took her mother’s hand and said calmly, “The main house has compelled us into a dead-end.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If we don’t fight back, we could only sit here and wait to die.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Father is a sensible person.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he knows what the main house has done, he won’t blame us.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And if he does fault us for it, he is being foolish and not worthy to be a father or husband.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>We don’t have to care about his feelings then!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lady Du didn’t expect her daughter to say such words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was taken aback for a moment but, after thinking it over, she felt her daughter was making sense and began to calm down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cai Wei spoke again, “Mother, you don’t have to worry about me and Fei’er’s marriages.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although we have lived in this town for a long time, that doesn’t mean we have to stay here forever.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Maybe once our business expands, we can move to the picturesque Jiangnan!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, Lady Du’s worry turned into joy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She playfully said, “You, always sweet-talking mother!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cai Wei replied, “How could this be deceiving?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You’ve also seen our earnings these days.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just in this remote small town, our skewers can bring in such revenue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If we opened a shop in a major place like Jiangnan or the capital, wouldn’t we be making incredibly big money!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, mother, older sister is absolutely right!” Cai Fei echoed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After some thought, Lady Du felt Cai Wei’s words were indeed reasonable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If they moved their home to the capital or Jiangnan, they could completely disengage from the main house.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their roast skewers could be sold like hotcakes and they could make a fortune…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was lost in her daydream…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing that her mother was no longer troubled, Cai Wei excused herself, claiming that she was tired and wanted to rest early.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She went back to her room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had promised Bai Mei and Brother Parrot that she would roast skewers for them today.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These gluttons must have been looking forward to it all day, so she had to go into the space early to fulfill her promise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon entering her room, she closed the door, lifted the bed curtain, and prepared to enter the space from the bed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the moment she lifted the bed curtain, she noticed an elegantly crafted brocade box lying quietly on the couch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The box was the exact one she had seen in the hands of the square-faced boy!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ugh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How detestable!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cai Wei went nuts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This square-faced boy actually sneaked into her boudoir while her family was present.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luckily, her underwear wasn’t on the bed or her face would’ve been completely discredited.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even so, having a man sneak into her boudoir was still nauseating!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Out of anger, she picked up the box and slipped into space.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, she was curious to see what was so important it had to be given to her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The divine beasts in the space had run off somewhere to play.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She strolled into the courtyard, sat on the swing under the banyan tree and, while leisurely swinging, opened the box.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Good heavens!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon opening the box, the contents gave her a big shock!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the splendid brocade box, a brilliant and crystal-clear pearl was set in red velvet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It emitted a soft glow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The pearl, the size of a pigeon egg and in a dim green color, was round and transparent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Holding it in her hand, it felt heavy and cold, as if it were truly…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>a Night Pearl!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To validate her assumption, she shouted, “Go!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the blink of an eye, she was back in her room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She hadn’t lit the lamp in her boudoir but the moment she came back, the room instantly filled with light, as bright as daytime.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The source of light was the pearl in her hand!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wow!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It is indeed a Night Pearl!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What a generous gift from that evil being!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inhaling sharply, Cai Wei held the pearl up to her eyes and examined it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The more she looked at it, the more she felt the pearl was priceless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The more she thought about it, the more she realized she couldn’t keep it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Amazingly generous but unrequited favors are either deceitful or thieving.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That evil being was already suspicious of her identity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was not easy to draw clear boundaries with him, but now if she were to accept his precious gift, she would inevitably be entangled with him again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No, she couldn’t accept it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Absolutely not.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had to return it!\u003C\u002Fp>",1227,"2026-06-03T13:14:27.289Z","2026-06-03T13:14:31.392Z",1,"novelbin.me","9e44b396e40a0fd64fdea44c0594cff66ea7aa29c30871827329052e52bf281b","transmigration-from-farmer-to-empress-chapter-89","transmigration-from-farmer-to-empress-chapter-87",2136,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Ftransmigration-from-farmer-to-empress-cover.jpg"]
