Ye Youlan's daily life of traveling through time

Chapter 120 He is dead

After Ye Youlan returned to the palace, she went straight to the embroidery room.

She asked the embroiderers to use all the leftover fabrics to make some small gadgets and put them in the store as gifts for shoppers. She also emphasized that they were only given away and not sold, and would be given away with purchases.

She asked Xiaomei to arrange someone to be responsible for this area, and give the embroiderer a penny for each one collected.

The embroiderer was very happy. She had no capital and could earn a penny for each one she made. These little gadgets were simple and easy to make, and it was easy to make seven or eight in one night.

The finished gadgets are sent to the store under the name of the palace as gifts. Some customers did not want to buy things at first, but they liked the gifts very much and could not help but buy something.

After Ye Youlan returned to her room, the Seventh Prince took out the silver hairpin in her hair and replaced it with a jade hairpin.

"This is what my eldest brother gave me. Are you jealous and won't let me take it?"

"Treasure this gift you received. If you lose it, it would be a shame to your elder brother for his kindness."

Ye Youlan smiled, feeling jealous but unwilling to admit it.

Xiaomei said outside that the bath water is ready.

Ye Youlan and the Seventh Prince smiled at each other.

The Seventh Prince whispered, "Together?"

"You go first, I want to wash my hair later."

The Seventh Prince was about to go to the bathroom with his clothes, but Li Zhi was outside with something to report, so the Seventh Prince had to go out.

Ye Youlan called out to him from behind: "Stay calm and ask more questions."

Li Zhi told the Seventh Prince that the man who pretended to be Zhao Yesong went to Li Da's house.

"Your Highness, should we go to the Shangshu Mansion to arrest someone?"

The Seventh Prince remembered Ye Youlan's instructions, and he told Li Zhi to send people to keep an eye on the Shangshu Mansion and not to take any action without his order.

The Seventh Prince entered the bathroom and saw Xiaomei helping the princess wash her hair. He motioned for Xiaomei to go out, then he picked up a ladle and scooped water to pour on her hair.

"Xiaomei, you poured too much water. My eyes are blurry. Hurry and get me a soft cloth."

The Seventh Prince picked up the soft cloth and handed it to her. Seeing her long black hair like a waterfall, he couldn't help but touch it and stroke it down.

Ye Youlan wiped her eyes, opened them, and saw the Seventh Prince looking at her with a smile: "When did you come in?"

"I'll help wash the princess' hair."

Ye Youlan lay in the bathtub and said contentedly, "Use a soft cloth to wipe my hair clean."

"Ok."

Ye Youlan complained, "Why did the ancients keep their hair so long? Summer is coming soon. It would be great if I could cut my hair short so I could wash it every day."

The Seventh Prince's hand stopped, and the short-haired girl who looked exactly like Ye Youlan appeared in his mind again. He thought that short hair actually looked pretty good, but he immediately returned to normal. What was he thinking?

Ye Youlan asked the Seventh Prince how often he washed his hair, as she seemed to have never smelled any strange odor in his hair.

“Wash it once every three to five days.”

"Who washed them for you?"

"Myself."

Ye Youlan glanced at the Seventh Prince and said, "It would be cool if you had a buzz cut."

"Short hair, buzz cut, is that the hairstyle people in your world wear?"

Ye Youlan smiled: "Isn't that the hairstyle of the woman in your dream? You forgot, you even painted a portrait of that woman! By the way, does that woman still appear in your dreams?"

"That was the only time. I never dreamed about it again."

"You wouldn't tell me even if you dreamed about it."

"Tonight we will dream together."

Li Zong and Qin Yurou were awakened by the rapid knocking on the door outside, which was especially terrifying in the middle of the night.

It was Xiao Bao's voice, crying out, "Master, Madam, Master is dead."

The two were terrified. How could such a person suddenly disappear? They quickly put on their clothes and walked towards the courtyard where the master lived. Li Zong was so panicked that he didn't even put on his shoes properly, and he was stumbling as he walked.

The door of the house where Li Da lived was open at this time. A Miao, the girl who took care of him, was sitting on the ground, her face full of tears and her whole body trembling.

Li Zong went in to take a look, then quickly retreated and told Yu Rou not to go in.

Qin Yurou cursed him in her heart for being useless. She pushed Li Zong away and went in. She saw Li Da lying on the bed. His face was ashen. He must have been dead for some time.

Qin Yurou came out and asked A Miao what was going on?

A Miao waved her hands: "It's not me, it has nothing to do with me, it's not me."

"No one said anything to you, what's going on?"

Ah Miao's voice trembled: "I serve the master at night. After he falls asleep, I go back to my room to sleep. The smell of medicine in this room is very strong and I really can't stand it. I got up just now and came here to see if the master needed some tea. Who knew that the master was gone?"

Li Da died suddenly, and the emperor was very surprised. He asked the Dali Temple to send a coroner to examine him. After confirming that he died of a heart attack, he said nothing more and handled everything according to the rules.

The Li family did not hold a grand funeral. Qin Yurou believed that Li Da had a bad reputation when he was alive, and her mother-in-law was unwilling to come back. The bigger the funeral, the more embarrassing it would be. The scandal of the Li family would spread everywhere and become the talk of the town.

Li Zong had always relied on his father for his living. Now his father had suddenly passed away and his mother was not at home. He felt as if the pillar of his family had suddenly collapsed. He could not accept it and drowned his sorrows in alcohol.

Qin Yurou finished the funeral and looked at the devastated Li Zong. She was very angry and splashed tea on Li Zong's face. Li Zong shouted, "My father is gone and my mother doesn't want me anymore. I'm sad. Can you please leave me alone?"

"Your sadness can bring your father back to life, your sadness can bring your mother back?"

Li Zong pounded his chest: "It hurts here."

"Cheer up, the Shangshu Mansion will depend on you from now on."

Li Zong laughed at himself helplessly: "Depend on me? Do you think I have that ability?"

"Even if you don't have the ability, you have to find a way to make yourself capable enough to support this family."

Qin Yurou didn't want to waste any more time talking to him, so she asked the guard to help the young master go downstairs to wash up. If he saw the young master drinking again, he would beat him with ten sticks.

Xiao Bao had a bitter face, but he dared not say anything, so he had to help the young master to take a bath.

Qin Yurou went into the room and wrote a letter to Ren Yue. She hoped that Ren Yue would say a few good words for Li Zong in front of the Queen Mother. She could not allow Li Zong to fall into depravity.

Ye Youlan and others wanted to ask Yu Rou to go out and relax, but Yu Rou kept making excuses for being busy with affairs at the mansion.

Chen Xiaoling's mother became very pampered because of severe pregnancy reactions, so Chen Xiaoling moved to her mother's house to stay for a few days and talk to her mother.

Chen Xiaoling was not at home, and Chen Su did not return home either, but followed her to her father-in-law's house. Princess Yong'an scolded her son for forgetting his mother after getting married.

Prince Yongan smiled and said, "The child is not at home, so we will try our best."

Princess Yong'an smiled and said, "Let it be, don't make a fuss."

Prince Yong'an was dissatisfied: "My in-law is two years older than me. If he can do it, why can't I? Is it because I'm using the wrong method?"

Princess Yong'an spat at her husband: "The method is wrong. Where did Chen Su come from?"

Chen Xiaoling's house was also bustling with activity. Mrs. Chen was experiencing severe pregnancy reactions and had no appetite. She even vomited as soon as something she wanted to eat was brought to her lips.
