Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Ming Shu stood up and walked to the woodshed’s door. An old lock hung there, with a large gap in the middle, and she could reach out for it.
Perhaps because the butler didn’t think she would run, he didn’t lock the door. Ming Shu took the lock off easily.
Leaving the woodshed, Ming Shu stretched a little and found the kitchen according to her mory.
No one was in the kitchen and Ming Shu swaggered in. She searched everywhere but didn’t find any drumsticks, only several stead buns.
Stead buns are okay.
I don’t hold anything against stead buns.
Ming Shu left the kitchen with the stead buns and went to her room.
The Liu family was the richest in the village, and their houses were grand, no worse than those of the ministry councillors’. It was said that the Liu family’s ancestors generations ago were officials in the imperial court. Because they were tired of the court, they went back to their hotown Yunli Village.
The house was also left by the ancestor who held an official position at that ti.
“I told you not to co again...”
The low voice ca from behind the next rockery. Ming Shu slightly raised her eyebrows, the stead buns in hand, and gingerly approached the rockery.
“You haven’t seen in so many days. What do you an? Didn’t we make a deal before? You don’t co to , so I can only co to you.” The man’s voice was a little loud.
Ming Shu craned her neck and looked over. A man was standing with the woman in the yellow dress that Ming Shu had seen before.
It was Liu Xinyue.
Liu Xinyue was startled by the man’s voice and scolded him. “Keep it low. Do you want to be heard by my father?”
“Just let him know.” The man didn’t seem to care.
“You want to be killed by my father?” Liu Xinyue stared at him with displeasure.
Hearing this, the man behaved himself a little bit.
Honestly, the man... was not very good-looking. He looked ordinary, and his temperant wasn’t good, either, much like a rogue’s.
Liu Xinyue didn’t know why the forr Liu Xinyue would hang out with such a stupid guy. She was a flower of the village!
Her vision was so poor.
“Where’s the money I gave you last ti?” Liu Xinyue asked the man. “Have you spent it all?”
“It’s not enough. I’m running a business now, Xinyue, I need more.” The man ca forward, smiling, and pressed Liu Xinyue against the rockery. “When I beco rich, your father will hurry to marry you to .”
Liu Xinyue’s eyes were full of disgust, but she had to deal with the man. “Don’t get so close, soone will see us.”
“At this ti, who will co here? I’m very familiar with your Liu family.” The man began to touch Liu Xinyue all over.
Ming Shu nibbled the stead bun against the rockery. There ca Liu Xinyue’s discontented voice, followed by the man’s painful hum. It seed Liu Xinyue had run.
Ming Shu bent over to take a look, and sure enough, she only saw Liu Xinyue’s disappearing shadow. The man stood in place with a sullen face.
“Hey!” Ming Shu suddenly said.
The man was startled. But after recognizing who it was, he relaxed. “Little girl, what did you see?”
“I saw everything.”
The man was not scared. “If you dare speak it, I’ll kill you.”
“Wow, I’m so scared.” Ming Shu patted her chest exaggeratedly, eyes smiling, and didn’t show any sign of being scared. “Brother, do you want to marry Liu Xinyue?”
“You don’t stamr now?” the man suddenly asked.
“You stamr,” Ming Shu said, “I’m asking you.”
The man examined Ming Shu with suspicion. “What does it matter to you whether I want to marry her or not?”
Before this little girl lowered her head the whole ti, and she didn’t speak clearly, but today... She looked as beautiful as new peonies. If she didn’t wear poor clothes, she would have looked more beautiful than Liu Xinyue.
Her eyes were clear and bright, smiling like the sun in March.
“If you want to marry her, I can tell you a way of making that happen.” Ming Shu ignored the man’s suddenly lustful eyes. “What do you think?”
Liu Xinyue was the Liu family’s First Young Lady, the beloved daughter of Father Liu, and she would inherit the entire Liu family in the future.
The man quickly thought it through. “What idea do you have?”
“What has been done cannot be undone. As long as the rumors spread, in order to save her reputation, Liu Xinyue will have to marry you.”
The man’s eyes lit up.
Once a woman lost her reputation, who would marry her?
“Little girl, you’re smart.”
“I’m flattered.”
“If it works, rest assured, I won’t treat you badly.” The man’s lustful eyes swept over Ming Shu’s face and he was a little excited.
“Don’t count on .” Ming Shu ca out from behind the rockery. She smiled at the man. “Otherwise you’ll know the aning of ‘to live is no better than to die.’”
eting with Ming Shu’s eyes, the man felt a little chilly for no apparent reason.
–
Ming Shu left the rockery. Before she arrived at her own room, she saw Liu Xinyue and a servant girl co over in a hurry.
The Liu family had servant girls and butlers, from which you could tell they were really rich.
Liu Xinyue saw Ming Shu standing in the corridor with half a stead bun in her hand, and she was very surprised.
“Qingqing.” Liu Xinyue went up to her. “What are you doing here? Didn’t Father make you... you sneak out?”
Liu Xinyue covered her mouth and said caringly, “You’ll be dood if Father finds it out. Go back quickly, and I won’t tell him.”
“Do I need to thank you?” Ming Shu raised her eyebrows slightly.
“Qingqing?” Liu Xinyue seed doubtful and her eyes kept examining Ming Shu. “You really have no problem speaking now?”
How did this stamrer suddenly speak well?
Ming Shu upturned her lips. “Aren’t you happy that I can speak?”
“How can it be...”
“That’s right.” Ming Shu interrupted Liu Xinyue. “You’re not happy, so I’ll be happy.”
“Qingqing?” Liu Xinyue frowned. What’s wrong with this Liu Qing?
Ming Shu looked at the servant girl. There was no one else around, and she finished the stead bun quickly, then pulled at Liu Xinyue.
“Qingqing, what are you doing?”
“Ah!”
“Ah!”
Two screams. One was from the servant girl, the other from Liu Xinyue.
Ming Shu gave an overarm throw to Liu Xinyue and the latter fell to the ground. The servant girl scread, covering her mouth, eyes filled with shock.
“Hush!” Ming Shu wiggled her fingers at the servant girl with a smile. “Don’t scream, and I won’t beat you.”
The servant girl stopped screaming.
“Liu Qing, what are you doing? Let go of .” Liu Xinyue struggled around on the ground, but was pressed down tightly by Ming Shu.
“I’ll let you go in a minute.” Let beat you up first and gain so Hatred Points.
“You...”
Liu Xinyue couldn’t finish her sentence and was beaten up by Ming Shu. The servant girl shivered beside them.
After the beating, Ming Shu stood up slowly and tidied up her shabby clothes.
Liu Qing felt dizzy and pained all over her body.
“Liu... Qing...”
“I’m here.” Ming Shu responded in a brisk voice. She bent down and looked at Liu Xinyue. “Are you very angry?”
Liu Xinyue was confused. Liu Qing suddenly could speak fluently, and she suddenly beat her up... How could she not be angry.
Ming Shu stood up. “That’s right. You’ll be angrier in the future.”
Under Liu Xinyue’s shocked gaze, Ming Shu left while humming a tune.
