Translator: NovelMultiverse | Editor: NovelMultiverse
Back at Pinlan Garden, Ling’er came out to greet her, still acting submissive: “Miss, the food is ready for you . ”
Yu Linglong glanced at Ling’er and entered the room .
Xuan Cao helped Yu Linglong wash her face . While Yu Linglong wiped her hands with her kerchief, she said, “Show her that thing . ”
Xuan Cao answered: “Yes . ” She took out a squarely folded piece of paper from her arms and handed it to Ling’er .
Ling’er took the paper with a confused expression, opened it, and instantly changed her face .
She raised her head abruptly, her dark eyes projecting a bright light that she hadn’t shown in a long time . She looked confused and excitedly at Yu Linglong: “Miss—”
This piece of paper was shockingly a contract for her brother Fu Yong’er!
Yu Linglong threw her veil into the copper basin, and said lightly: “I bought him, but I didn’t free him . From now on, he will be my slave . ”
The brilliance in Ling’er’s eyes faded a bit, but she was still very grateful: “I thank you for Yong’er . From now on, Yong’er and I will do our best to serve the lady . ”
Although they were also slaves, after all, the siblings didn’t need to be separated anymore, and it was much better than before .
Yu Linglong said coldly: “Don’t expect me to let him enter the Yu Mansion . It’s not easy for you to see him occasionally . ”
Ling’er’s face changed slightly and her little excitement disappeared . She hesitated and asked: “Then…then, may I ask, where is Yong’er now?”
Yu Linglong got up and walked to the dining table, and said, “I let him go to Shangwu Academy . What he can learn depends on his good fortune . ”
Tears of grat.i.tude burst into Ling’er’s eyes . Shangwu Academy was a famous martial arts hall in the capital . It has trained many people with superb martial arts skills . It was difficult for ordinary people to get into the Shangwu Academy to practice martial arts . It was conceivable that Yu Linglong must have spent a lot of silver .
This situation was a far cry from being a slave to a horse boy before!
She knelt on the ground with a plop, kowtowed to Yu Linglong, and said with tears, “Thank you, missus, thank you, missus!”
Yu Linglong picked up the chopsticks and said coldly: “Don’t be grateful to me . It’s not for you, it’s for myself . ”
She asked Ma Changgeng to go to see this Fu Yong’er first, and when she saw that the boy had a good apt.i.tude, she decided to buy him .
Ancient times were no better than modern times . If you want to cultivate your own power, you have to adapt to ancient ways .
Ling’er’s small face still had tears, but she already showed a content smile: “As long as I know that Yong’er is fine, I’m satisfied . ”
Yu Linglong was silent for a moment, and said, “Ming’er will let you take a day off . Go out and relax . ”
Ling’er was choked with grat.i.tude . She stood up in silence, wiped away tears, and stepped forward to pick up the chopsticks: “Miss, I will help you prepare the dishes . ”
She said that she was taking the day off, but she was actually allowing her to visit her brother in Shangwu Academy . The young lady was cold on the surface, but she was actually a delicate person with a cold face and a warm heart .

…
Yu Linglong antic.i.p.ated that Lord Xu might act, but she didn’t expect that guy would come so fast and so blatant .
Early that morning, Mama Cui arrived at Pinlan Garden with a humble and respectful smile on her face: “Reporting to the Fourth Lady, Lord Xu is here, and wants to invite Miss to go out for a chat . ”
Yu Linglong frowned as soon as she heard the name of Lord Xu: “Chat about what? I won’t go!”
Mama Cui choked and turned pale, but she barely held up a smile: “The Lady said, beg the fourth lady to take care of…well, take care of your surname Yu . Please help the Yu house with this!”
Mu Shi naturally knew that Yu Linglong would never go out because of her and General Yu’s reputation, but not asking her to come out was not a way, Lord Xu was not so easy to please!
Mama Cui was still pleading with Yu Linglong in the backyard, and in the living room in the front was Lord Xu, waiting impatiently .
“Every time the lord comes, the people in the Yu Mansion always make all sorts of excuses . They put on such big airs!”
Lord Xu, who could keep his smile on his face while being slapped by Yu Linglong, didn’t have such a good temper in front of others .
The butler saw that Lord Xu felt like his head was going to explode, but he still had to stand by and wait with him and serve him tea .
“Master, please wait a moment . I will go ask the host to come out . ” The senior butler wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and then walked out cautiously before turning around and disappearing .
He said he was calling the host, but he did not say he was calling Fourth Lady Yu .
After a while, he saw a st.u.r.dy figure staggering out .
Poor General Yu, who had not healed yet had to bite the bullet and come out to receive this famous and difficult Lord Xu .
Enduring the pain in his body, General Jade Yu staggered over the threshold and gave a salute to Lord Xu: “Chen Yupeng pays his respects to Lord Xu . Long live the prince . ”
After waiting for a while, he didn’t hear the voice of Lord Xu . General Yu raised his head in doubt, just to meet Lord Xu’s handsome face with a funny look .
“You…were also hit by Yu Linglong!?”
On General Yu in front of him, he could only see the injuries of his body through the difficult steps, but the sharp whip marks on his face could not be concealed .
General Yu’s dark face immediately flushed red, making the scars more obvious .
It was shameful to see, the head of his own dignified family, this important minister of the nation, was beaten into a demon by his daughter, a fourteen-year-old girl!
Lord Xu raised his head and laughed, and said jokingly: “Even you have been beaten into this kind of morality . That lord’s slap is still merciful to Linglong . ”
General Yu was speechless . He really didn’t know how he should deal with this hostile Lord Xu .
It’s just that he understood at least one point, that Lord Xu valued Yu Linglong so much, that he couldn’t move anyway from this concubine’s daughter .
Lord Xu adjusted his cuffs and looked idle: “Where is Linglong, why hasn’t she come out yet?”
General Yu replied helplessly: “The little girl…the little girl is unwell…”
The flushed face had been speaking for a while, and he couldn’t say any more . General Yu was not Mu Shi, so he just opened his mouth .
Seeing General Yu’s suffocated face turn purple, Lord Xu couldn’t help but smile: “How is she unwell? Yesterday, she slapped the lord, and today she fell ill?”
General Yu was not an eloquent person in the first place . He was so cornered by Lord Xu and he didn’t know how to deal with it . Did he want to admit that he had lied? Or should he apologize for Yu Linglong for beating Lord Xu yesterday?
Before General Yu could think about what to say, Lord Xu got up and went straight out: “If she refuses to come, I will go through!”
General Yu suddenly raised his head and looked at the figure who had gone away in surprise .
Lord Xu marched straight into the inner courtyard of his house!?
Looking at the equally stunned butler around him, General Yu gave a fierce kick: “What are you doing in a daze? Hurry up and inform the people inside, withdraw! Withdraw!”
Lord Xu didn’t take entering into the inner courtyard of others seriously, and he couldn’t just watch Lord Xu pa.s.s by an unmarried daughter . Who was being provoked here!
