Apr 7, 2023

Nie Sangyu found that Ning Yuxuan was lying motionless in the bathtub, and no one came when he asked for help, so he could only help Ning Yuxuan to the bed and covered him with a quilt. Nie Sangyu thought that Ning Yuxuan had passed out, but it turned out that he was just asleep. Nie Sangyu thought that he was locked in the kitchen, so he wanted to go there to find clues, and found the lock and a hairpin used to unlock it in the ruins of the kitchen.

Wen Wan came to see Ning Yuxuan, saw that he was still awake, and took his robe away. Guibai told Ning Yuxuan that Nie Sangyu was looking for clues, and Ning Yuxuan told him to call everyone over. Alfalfa told Nie Sangyu that now everyone was spreading rumors that Nie Sangyu set fire to the kitchen to burn the gentleness next door. Nie Sangyu felt that she locked herself inside just to burn the people next door, so there was probably something wrong with her.

When Nie Sangyu saw Wen Wan in the yard, Wen Wan looked very scared, and said that Ning Yuxuan put on her clothes. Nie Sangyu knew that she had stabbed Wen Wan before, and she was afraid that she would not be surprised, so she left without saying anything. Wen Wan watched her go, and asked the servant girl to quickly put the robe back in Ning Yuxuan's room while others were not paying attention.

When Nie Sangyu arrived in the hall, the maids were very scared when they saw Nie Sangyu. Nie Sangyu said that she was the one who helped Ning Yuxuan up yesterday, but Ning Yuxuan ignored her, Nie Sangyu felt depressed, unexpectedly Ning Yuxuan didn't even say thank you.

Nie Sangyu told everyone about yesterday's situation. The fire started from outside and he was locked inside. Ning Yuxuan asked Nie Sangyu why she would go to the kitchen at night, and Nie Sangyu said that she was hungry to find something to eat, but no one could prove it for her.

Butler Liu said that the servants in the outer courtyard had a curfew, and only a few first-class maids in the inner courtyard could approach the kitchen. The first-class maids only had Clover, Pinellia, and Sandalwood. Clover was sleeping yesterday, and someone can prove that Pinellia Sandalwood hurriedly knelt down and begged for mercy, saying it wasn't them.

Nie Sangyu said that he just saw that the smell on someone's body was the same as the smell left on the hairpin. Ban Xia and Sandalwood refused to admit it. Nie Sangyu asked Butler Liu how to deal with the house rules he had set before. Butler Liu said that the same punishment should be imposed, and those who set fire would be burned to death.

Ban Xia was frightened, and admitted that she did it, because Nie Sangyu branded her shoulders with plum blossoms before, and she ruined her healthy body. Banxia felt resentful, but she didn't want to kill Nie Sangyu, she just wanted to set fire to scare her.

Nie Sangyu had heard that he had done a lot of bad things before, but only now saw it with his own eyes, and apologized to Ban Xia. Nie Sangyu said that she had done a lot of wrong things before, and she apologized to everyone, and hoped that everyone would forgive her. Although Ban Xia was wrong this time, she was the one who bullied Ban Xia first, so I will not pursue it. Ning Yuxuan didn't say anything.

Wen Wan came to please Ning Yuxuan, but Ning Yuxuan said that they were not a real couple and would send her out of the house after the turmoil passed. Nie Sangyu asked Clover to bring her savings, but found that there was only a little silver. When Nie Sangyu asked about her dowry, Clover said that she insisted on marrying Ning Yuxuan and had a falling out with the master, so she didn't have any dowry at all. Alfalfa said that Nie Sangyu had a treasure box, and Nie Sangyu took it and opened it, only to find that there were portraits of Ning Yuxuan inside, and there was no money at all.

Qian Lianxue invites Nie Sangyu out for dinner. Qian Lianxue is Ning Yuxuan's cousin, and she lives here because of her poor family. Qian Lianxue said that Nie Sangyu often came to this restaurant before, because here she could see Ning Yuxuan going to the Yamen.

Nie Sangyu learned that many aristocratic women in the capital followed Nie Sangyu's example to see Ning Yuxuan here, and thought of a way to make money by selling the paintings he had painted to these people at high prices. These people have no way to get in touch with Ning Yuxuan, and they can't see Ning Yuxuan's appearance in life, so they can only buy Nie Sangyu's paintings at a high price. Nie Sangyu made money, bought medicinal materials to make scar ointment, and wanted to give it to Banxia to help her get rid of the scars on her body.

When Ning Yuxuan found out about this, she was very angry. She didn't expect Nie Sangyu to use him to make money, and confiscated all the money Nie Sangyu made.
