Chapter 1 - Chapter 1

A month had passed since the soul inside Fei Xue had changed.

After her body had mostly recovered, Fei Xue decided that this was how someone should live their life; carefree and without any restraint.

But there was one problem, once she recovers completely, she will have to follow the tedious routines of these ancient Xiaojies.

She didn't want to do that. She wanted to squatter all day reading cheap romance novels and eat good food. All those rules and regulations; she followed them so strictly in her last life and look where it landed her.

And so Fei Xue spent the whole afternoon on a chair by the window in her bedroom.

A spark appeared in her eyes after seeing the Jade tablet in her bed.

"Qing An." She beckoned the girl with her left hand.

Qing An was one of the servent girls in Fei Xue's courtyard, the other one being An Bai.

Unlike An Bai, Qing An was far more efficient as she asked far few questions.

"How much allowance does this xiaojie of yours get from the house?"

Without as much as an expression change, she replied "Answering Xiaojie, twenty silver taels. "

Fei Xue calculated in her head.

"Who keeps account of the expense of this."

Qing An kept her head lowered so Fei Xue did not know what she was thinking.

"The Furen."

"That would make more sense." Fei Xue thought to herself.

"Are you able to go outside of the residence without anyone noticing? "

Still keeping her head down, she nodded.

Fei Xue pointed a finger at the jade sleeping tablet. As she had no knowledge about the current economy, She could only trust others.

Qing An's vision followed her finger.

"How much do you think this will sell for?"

"Three Silver taels." Said with a diminishing voice.

"That cheap!" Fei Xue screamed out loud.

Qing An looking at her strangely. She cleared her throat and said, "That price, is it not too low?"

Qing An retracted her vision.

"Answering Xiaojie, Three silver taels is the annual salary of a ninth-ranked public official."

Fei Xue nodded her head in understanding.

"Is that so."

In deep thought, she stroked her nonexistent beard.

"Go and pawn it."

Qing An without any objection carried the jade tablet, bowed and left.
