Blooming Days Episode 8 Recap
> Blooming Days Recap
Luo Qinglian, upon arriving at her new residence, had new attendants and maids. However, she instructed them that if they heard people talking about her outside, they should ignore it. She didn't want them to be insulted because of her past, and she would never force them to stay. When Luo Qinglian entered her room, she was surprised to find He Lianxin already there. She realized that He Lianxin had received a significant promotion that day, which meant he was willing to overlook the death of Hui'er, as he had also allowed Fang Huairui's brother, Fang Erge, to remain unharmed. The past, no matter how painful, was behind them, and the future was what truly mattered.
He Lianxin was impressed by Luo Qinglian's intelligence, confirming that he had made the right choice in her. He ordered that she was not to leave the residence without his permission. Luo Qinglian understood his reasons and didn't question them. After the recent events, she could see that He Lianxin cared about the people and would likely be a wise ruler in the future. However, she also sensed that Mu Haiyao was cunning and malicious, and her influential family would eventually pose a threat to He Lianxin. He had confined Luo Qinglian for her safety, as she had attracted attention and made enemies in the household, particularly from the Crown Prince.
Luo Qinglian's house arrest lasted for a year, during which time she took the opportunity to learn about all the matters within the residence. She had a hunch about He Lianxin's intentions, so she asked the servants assigned to her to share any information they knew.
On a stormy night, He Lianxin was summoned to the Lord An's mansion, and Luo Qinglian woke up, sensing that something was amiss. She learned that He Lianxin had gone to the Lord An's mansion, which confirmed her suspicion that something had gone wrong there. The Lord An was furious because the treasury at his mansion had been emptied. He inquired if anyone had volunteered to recover the debts, and the Crown Prince was the first to back down. Lord An then recommended the Third Young Master, and ultimately, He Lianxin was tasked with the job. In reality, Lord An used this opportunity to clear the way for the Crown Prince. Recovering the debts would please Lord An, but it would anger other high-ranking officials. Failing to recover the debts was not an option, as it would be seen as a failure, making it a thankless task. The other young masters took delight in He Lianxin's predicament.
With a troubled expression, He Lianxin realized he was at a loss, but then he thought of Luo Qinglian and considered seeking her help to resolve the current crisis. Su Nanchun was tasked with taking Luo Qinglian to the Lord An's mansion. However, on the way, they encountered a maid of Mistress Mo who would report this to her mistress and deliver a hairpin she had found dropped by Luo Qinglian. Mistress Mo knew that Mu Haiyao bore a grudge against Luo Qinglian and intended to interfere, so she shared this information with Mu Haiyao.
Luo Qinglian, along with He Lianxin, met with the Lord An. The Lord An inquired about how He Lianxin treated Luo Qinglian, and she replied that he treated her well. The Lord An informed her that there was more to it than just being treated well; He Lianxin treated her the same way he treated everyone. He insinuated that He Lianxin was not being overly affectionate. Although He Lianxin had not yet grasped his father's intentions, he believed it wouldn't be a bad thing. Mu Haiyao had a miscarriage, and it was Mistress Mo who had orchestrated this incident, framing Luo Qinglian for it. Upon returning to the mansion, Luo Qinglian was taken to Mu Haiyao's room. She saw the stillborn baby and then Mu Haiyao produced the missing hairpin. Luo Qinglian realized she was in trouble and tried to escape, but the servants blocked the door. At that moment, the legitimate wife and Mistress Mo arrived, and Luo Qinglian came up with a plan to pretend that everything was fine and that she had not suffered any harm.
