The Aloof Prince Chapter 37 - Throwing Eggs
Mu Yunjin`s countenance evoke so happiness, at the thought that Chu Li might renege, her footsteps beca a lot relaxed. To renege is good, hurry and renege so that she can be much more leisure and free. Zi Xiang who was walking behind saw that Mu yunjin is walking briskly so she trotted beside Mu Yunjin and astonished she asked.
“Miss, we are talking about this matter and it cannot be a good thing but why do you seem happy instead?”
“What`s the rush, the wedding date will co, naturally soone can replace to worry about this matter.”
Mu Yunjin glanced back at Zi Xiang, her voice sharp and clear. When Zi Xiang heard her words, she nodded and put Mu Yunjin`s words into heart. Master and servant, this two people wandered the big street, they pa.s.sed through a place selling rouge powders, Zi Xiang fancied and stubbornly pulled Mu Yunjin to go in and see. Now at the Rouge shop, there are lots of people, Mu Yunjin usually don`t like crowded places, but seeing Zi Xiang happy, it is not good to sweep her feelings.
“Miss, take a look at this.”
Zi Xiang picked up a small jar, gently twisted it open, and pa.s.sed it in front of Mu Yunjin. Mu Yunjin looked at the thing on Zi Xiang`s hand, it is a small pink colored rouge, her lips slightly hooked up.
“If you like it, buy it, it just so happens that we have plenty of money on hand.”
hearing Mu Yunjin say it like that, Zi Xiang no longer polite, happily chose two small boxes of rouge and let the shop owner wrap it up.
“I said that this voice sounds familiar, it is actually Yunjin i i.”
A familiar voice sounded at the side of the rouge shop. Mu Yunjin turned to look, standing there is Yan Ling Chang and herservant girl Cai Lu.
“Yan Jiejie, good.”Mu Yunjin and Yan Ling Chang greeted each other, not wanting to speak further she looked away. Yang Ling Chang saw this and with no change in her manner, she went to look at the rouge Zi Xiang is buying.
“Yunjin i i indeed is compa.s.sionate towards her servant girl, even buying these rogues, Ling Chang truly feel ashad.”“Yan Jie jie there is no need to feel ashad, isn`t this a rouge shop, your servant girl can pick a few things she likes whatever it is does not matter right?”Perhaps because this Yan Ling Chang is previously together with Mu Lingzhu that regardless of her harmless face, towards this Yan Ling Chang, Mu Yunjin does not have a good att.i.tude. When Yan Ling Chang heard her, she beca stiff, she smiled and from her sleeves she took out her purse and handed it to her servant girl.
“Cai Lu, go and choose sothing you like.”Cai Lu took the purse, a little terrified she looked towards Yan Lingchang to say her thanks before walking to the side. At this mont Zi Xiang has already picked up her choice of rouges and walked over to Mu Yunjin as if presenting a treasure, towards Mu Yunjin she showed a small case of rouge.
“Miss, this servant also chose for you, I reckon that it will look good on you.”“En, you are considerate.”Mu Yunjin smiled, as she shoot a glance at the flabbergasted Yan Lingchang. Pausing, Yan Lingchang broke in an embarra.s.sed laughter, as she opened her mouth to speak.
“Yunjin i i really has a good heart, Lingchang today has learned a lot.”“En, if there is nothing else, I will go first.”Mu Yunjin indifferently said, unwilling to have anymore conversation with Yang Lingchang, she lead Zi Xiang along to leave. After the both of them left, Yan Lingchang stood inside the rouge shop, gazing at Mu Yunjin`s departing figure with disdain, then after a short period of ti, she glared towards Cai Lu who had just selected a rouge.
“What are you still dawdling there, still not coming here, then get lost!”Hearing Yan Lingchang`s angry voice, Cai Lu got scared, trembling she imdiately ran still holding Yan Lingchang`s purse. Yan Lingchang s.n.a.t.c.hed the purse from Cai Lu, and put it back on her sleeves as she uttered with a voice full of contempt.
“For a mont you have forgotten the rules you are just a servant girl, you are here to only keep company. I heard that her and the sixth prince wedding is approaching, but until now the sixth prince have not sent his betrothal gift, what a big joke!”..........
After walking far away, Zi Xiang recalled what happened at the Rouge shop and looked inquisitively towards Mu Yunjin.
“Miss, you and that Miss Yan does not get along?”“It`s nothing ah.”Mu Yunjin replied casually.
“This servant just now seems to see you unwilling to talk to her, just now the two of you appears to not get along.”Zi Xiang said. Mu Yunjin smiled but did not speak. Along the road Mu Yunjin felt that the common people all stop and look at her, most of them held contempt and gloating on their eyes, even when she had pa.s.sed they would congregate and whisper.
Mu Yunjin imdiately beca curious and pointing a finger at herself she asked Zi Xiang.
“Zi Xiang, is my face unclean?”Zi Xiang looked at Mu Yunjin and shaked her head. Seeing it Mu Yunjin furrowed her brows, her eyes slightly narrowed, she turned to one of the stalls around.
“Aunt, how much is this?”Mu Yunjin picked up a silk handkerchief and swayed it in front of the Aunt. Aunt`s face had a huge smile, but after taking a closer look at Mu Yunjin, her smile suddenly beca odd and stiff.
“It is not expensive, just ten wen coins.”Mu Yunjin then took out the purse Su Biqing gave her and took out so silvers to give to the Aunt.
“I will give you this, but you have to tell what the people are talking about....”“Third Miss Mu, this...”The Aunt`s eyes showed surprise and fear, not daring to touch the silvers on Mu Yunjin`s hands. Seeing that the Aunt is hesitating, Mu Yunjin innocently blinked towards the Aunt.
“Not enough? I will pay you extra.”Then, Mu Yunjin took out a few more silvers. The Aunt saw this and secretly cursed herself for having bad luck, she bit her lips, and did not dare to speak.
“En?”Mu Yunjin saw that the Aunt is not speaking so she slightly raised her eyebrow.
“Third Miss, I beg you to let off, I have to take care of my aging parents and my children, by selling scarfs and handkerchiefs, you must not make it difficult for ...”The Aunt cried. Mu Yunjin frowned and is about to open her mouth to speak, when around her that was originally empty is now full of people who a.s.sembled to stand around her and the stall owner.
“Everybody said that the Third Miss` temper is domineering and crafty, today we can see the truth, to actually bully a peddler, perhaps inside the Xiang Fu, there is no law?”A middle aged man, boldly pointed at Mu Yunjin.
“That Aunt is honestly selling her silk handkerchiefs for two years, today she is bullied to the point of crying out.”A Furen followed to talk.
“No wonder the sixth prince has not yet send his betrothal gift, this kind of vicious and forceful woman, how can she fit to be with the sixth prince!”“Exactly, within the Xiang Fu, they have an outstanding talent, the fourth Miss, unfortunately such a person has corrupted the reputation of the Xiang Fu, really feel sorry for Xiangye.”Mu Yunjin from beginning to end, narrowed her eyes, concentrating to look at this turn of events, a lot of people, accusing and criticizing her, every words sharp, reducing her to worthless. It seems that the issue is that Chu Li`s betrothal gift have not yet sent.
“You are all presumptuous! Third miss, how can you wait for the next person criticize? Could it be they are impatient to live?” Zi Xiang saw so much people surrounding Mu Yunjin so she imdiately stood in front of Mu Yunjin putting Mu Yunjin behind her. Surprisingly, when Zi Xiang`s words fell suddenly several eggs were thrown towards Zi Xiang, her hair and clothes were in a ss. Seeing soone suddenly launch an attack, a Furen not to be outdone raised her basket filled with vegetables, also started to throw them. Vegetables and eggs were thrown towards Mu Yunjin and Zi Xiang.
“Miss, run...”Zi Xiang who was covering her head took Mu Yunjin`s hands to run away.
Run?
Mu Yunjin raised her eyebrow, at this mont her eyes are completely dark, she pulled Zi Xiang behind her to protect her. She, Mu Yunjin, will never be forced to suffer in silence. At this mont, standing in front is a brawny man who is also digging on the woman`s food basket, taking out chicken eggs. Seeing this, Mu Yunjin quickly walked towards the brawny man and gripped his wrist and imdiately did a shoulder throw, throwing the brawny man out. Mu Yunjin threw the brawny man directly to the group of people on the opposite side, when the people on that side saw the brawny man on the ground, they imdiately dispersed.
“Ai yo..”That brawny man that fell on the ground suddenly realize that he had several broken bones, he lied down there wailing in pain. The common people was stupefied, seeing that with Mu Yunjin`s pet.i.te body can even take down a man bigger than her. Sowhat taken aback, they imdiately got scared and flee in all four directions. After watching the crowd leave, Mu Yunjin`s anger is still unabated, she looked around coldly and smiled.
“It seems that soone is again playing dirty tricks.”“Miss, what should we do?”Zi Xiang asked as she tries to clean up the residue from her body, her face wrinkled.
“Back to the house!”When Mu Yunjin set foot inside the Xiang Fu, Su Biqing and Mu Lingzhu, whether it is intentional or not is still sitting in the front hall sipping tea. After taking a glimpse of Mu Yunjin`s ssy appearance, Su Biqing cried out in alarm, hiding her glee.
“Yunjin you, what happened? Why are you returning in such a way?”“Yes ah, Jiejie did you fall or were you beaten? if so then Xiang Fu will not let it go.”Mu Lingzhu covered her smile. Hearing this mother and daughter, Mu Yunjin knows sothing is fishy, this two people must not want to live an average life.
“Many thanks to mother and i i, I will return first.”Mu Yunjin plainly said before walking towards the Ascending Flower Pavilion. After Mu Yunjin left, Su Biqing and Mu Lingzhu looked at each other with pride and delight.
“Aunt Li, you arrange it, Mu Yunjin bullied the common people and injured the innocent, report it. It would be better if it reached the Emperor`s and Empress Dowager`s ears.”Su Biqing said to Aunt Li
“Yes, this slave will do it at once.”..........
When Mu Yunjin ca back, she did not imdiately return to Ascending Flower Pavilion, but went directly to the Xiang Fu`s back door.
Hi guys~
Of course Mu Yunjin has a plan right~
By the way, my bad I was not able to include Yan Lingchang and Wen Ru Han`s nas a few tis they`ve appeared during the palace banquet with the emperor on chapter 23 and during the run in with Mu Lingzhu in the temple at chapter 29 and 30 (Their nas are in bold letters in those chapters so you could see where they were inserted). They had no dialogue so it did not effect much of the story just forgot to include their existence.. But still sorry for excluding them it was unintentional because I literally translated them as Yan Ling Chang = Yan Damask Silk and Wen Ru Han = Warm as a Lotus Blossom and since they were always with Mu Lingzhu when they appear I thought it was an exaggerated description of Lingzhu.
To refresh us, they first appeared at the palace when Imperial Concubine Qin first invited Yunjin to the Palace when Lingzhu beca the extra wheel.
