Chapter 159: Ripoffs and Miserable Lives!
An Chuxue nodded her head like a pounding garlic, and then asked somewhat uncertainly, "Are you really sure?"
Living with her idol, this was something she could never have dreamed of before! You have to know, the gap between them was like heaven and earth! They weren’t even in the same world!
And moreover, if she lived here, she wouldn’t have to run around for a bit of rent or for her daily meals, right? It’s not that she’s too unsuccessful, it’s just that life in this ancient time is tough. Even if you lost your job in modern times, you could still do some unskilled work and barely make ends meet as a living person! But in this godforsaken place, it’s truly life-threatening! Always being on edge, An Chuxue summarized it as a mess! Hard times indeed!
Poor her, an unmarried young woman, not to mention a future with no security, even the most basic life wasn’t secure!
So Han Jing’s suggestion was essentially saving her from fire and water!
Han Jing smiled and said, "Of course it’s true!"
An Chuxue was so excited that she almost wanted to hug Han Jing’s leg; the goddess was truly awesome!
However, An Chuxue was also a little worried: "Um, will the rules of the Princess Mansion be very strict? If I say something wrong or do something wrong, will I be beheaded?"
Han Jing pulled her to sit down: "You don’t need to be too restrained. From now on, we are friends. You will live in my courtyard as my friend. There is a side door in my courtyard that leads directly outside the mansion, you can go out and come back anytime without anyone stopping you. You can do whatever you want, and don’t need to follow any rules. As for other people in the mansion, my mother is the kindest. As long as they’re my friend, she’ll like them. As for others, if you encounter them, no matter what they say or do, you don’t need to pay attention. I’ll have Uncle Xu find a maid skilled in martial arts for you, no one will dare to bully you!"
An Chuxue’s eyes were almost glowing: "Oh my, am I dreaming?"
Han Jing blinked and pinched her arm, which hurt An Chuxue so much that she tearfully cried out, "I’m not dreaming!"
Han Jing laughed out loud, and An Chuxue couldn’t help but laugh too. The two of them instantly laughed together, and it felt like they were old friends at first sight.
If there was still a bit of unfamiliarity before, it started to feel intimate now.
The two chatted about other things and the more they talked, the more they hit it off, feeling like they regretted meeting each other so late. Especially An Chuxue, she never dreamed that her idol, the screen goddess, all those cold and mysterious airs were all fake, and the real Han Jing was just a fun-loving girl, not so unattainably distant after all!
Unknowingly, they chatted until it was almost dark, until Mu Jin came knocking on the door, and Han Jing realized they had been talking for so long.
Because Han Jing brought a guest back, Aunt Qin specifically instructed the kitchen to prepare a few more good dishes. In Chenyu Pavilion, there was a small kitchen where you could cook whatever you liked, so a full table was set, and it was quite sumptuous.
Aunt Qin had someone set the food and utensils, and said to An Chuxue, "I don’t know what the young lady likes, so we made a few things casually. I hope you don’t mind."
An Chuxue pinched her thigh hard to resist the urge to drool.
