Chapter 76
Translator: NovelMultiverse | Editor: NovelMultiverse
Yu Linglong was getting angry . She didn’t understand the meaning of Shi Huiru’s words for a while . Shi Huiru had already said to herself the most important things that were buried deep in her heart: “…I have never forgotten him since I saw him for the first time . I remember he was standing under a tree, and I was talking to Yunzheng, and he was listening silently, with a smile on his face . It was so beautiful . ”
Yu Linglong’s irritation gradually disappeared somehow, and the carriage was on a quiet mountain road . Only her and Shi Huiru were in the carriage, and Shi Huiru murmured to herself: “I heard that someone has his paintings . I always find all kinds of excuses to look at them; I heard that some person has his fan to sell, and I have to p.a.w.n my own jewelry to buy it back; I always talk to Yunzheng so that I can see him from time to time…”
Yu Linglong finally remembered the prince Shi Huiru was talking about . He was the elegant man who appeared with Lord Xu in Changtinghou’s Mansion that day . She just glanced at him and was not impressed .
But now, there was a young girl who was falling in love, sitting in the carriage with her, and talking about her longing .
With previous life experience, Yu Linglong did not intend to believe in love anymore, but at that moment she admired Shi Huiru’s boldness . In this era, women should always be subtle, elegant, and able to confess to the people they like . Shi Huiru’s temperament was really like that .
These unhappy things had vanished into thin air, and Yu Linglong held Shi Huiru’s hand instead, and they silently faced each other .
She was not good at comforting others . She didn’t even know where to begin . Maybe Shi Huiru didn’t need comforting . She just wanted someone to tell her own thoughts to, and Yu Linglong, who had just blocked the loitering prince from molesting her, was the best target .
The mountains and forests were quiet . The whole day, there was only a lonely carriage, carrying the girl’s thoughts forward slowly .
…
Yu Linglong knew that the Shi family symbol was on the carriage they were riding in, and it was not difficult for Feng Sihuai to find them, so she was not surprised when someone came to report that someone from the Feng family was visiting the next day .
The maid serving the second door bowed her head fearfully and whispered: “…Mrs . Feng from the home of the Official of the Ministry of War is here, and she asked to speak with the Fourth Lady . ”
Yu Linglong sneered . She wanted to speak to her? She’s probably coming to punish her!
Yu Linglong didn’t get up . She gently blew on her warm tea and said casually: “Oh? Who else is out front?”
Mrs . Feng came to the Yu Mansion in person, so she must be greeted by an honorable person, right?
The maid said respectfully: “In response to the Fourth Lady, the master accompanies the guests out front . ”
When Yu Linglong heard this, she almost spits out her tea . He was accompanying the guest? Yu Peng, an old master, was chatting with the wife of his immediate boss in the drawing-room? This scene seemed ridiculous just thinking about it .
She guessed that Yu Peng was also unable to do so . It stands to reason that Lady Feng should be greeted by Lady Mu Shi in the first place, but Mu Shi was beaten by him and could not even get out of bed . How could he come out to greet the guest? Yes, the daughters are too young to receive such an important guest . Right now, there was really no one to accompany guests in the Yu house except for General Yu .
Yu Linglong held back a smile and said, “I see, you may leave . ”
The maid didn’t dare to press Yu Linglong any further and pa.s.sed on her words . It didn’t matter to her whether the Fourth Lady went or not, so she hurriedly saluted and left .
Yu Linglong wiped the corners of her mouth and called out, “Xuan Cao, Ling’er, come here and change my clothes . ”[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse . com]
Ling’er hurriedly walked in: “Miss, are you really going to see that Lady Feng?”
Yu Linglong glanced at her faintly: “Of course I want to go . If I don’t go, she’ll think I was afraid of her . ”
Ling’er took out her dress and asked nervously: “Miss, you beat Master Feng that day . I’m afraid Lady Feng is here to find a complaint against you!”
Yu Linglong sneered: “Find a complaint against me? We’ll see what complaint she can find!”
Xuan Cao persuaded: “Lady Feng must be angry . Why should you go out and face her? Otherwise, I will go back to the master and say you are not feeling well so you don’t have to go out today . ”
Yu Linglong heard this and was both angry and amused: “I just beat someone yesterday, but today I will say I was uncomfortable? Would you believe that?”
Xuan Cao was speechless . Ling’er said: “We also don’t know how Young Master Feng’s injuries are . ”
Yu Linglong stood up, put on her clothes with Hemerocallis and Ling’er, and said: “What will it mean if they’re not serious? If they’re not serious, I will beat him again!”
Ling’er couldn’t help laughing, but Xuan Cao couldn’t laugh, and said anxiously, “Miss, you have to be careful . ”
Yu Linglong straightened the jasper hairpin on her head, and said coldly: “What are you afraid of? If she dares to provoke me, I’ll beat her until she doesn’t know where she is!”
…
General Yu was standing in the front yard of the Yu Mansion . He was so nervous that he didn’t know where to put his hands and feet .
He was a tough man, and going into battle was normal for him . But making him chat with his boss’s wife in the inner courtyard was more unbearable than being killed .
Especially since the other party was still calm and brought her son to punish them in person .
Lady Feng wore a turquoise horse-faced dress with a blue and gold hairpin on her head . She had a cold face and a cold energy from head to toe . She proudly sat in the seat of honor . Although she didn’t say a word, it was obvious she was letting others feel her anger .
On her right side, Feng Sihuai was wrapped in a thick gauze on his head, sitting on a chair with a blue nose and a swollen face . He winced in pain from time to time .
Looking at her son’s appearance, Lady Feng’s face became more and more ugly .
In any case, she was also the first-cla.s.s lady of the current dynasty, and her husband was a mastermind from the Ministry of War . But with such an ident.i.ty, her precious son was still beaten with this kind of conduct .
What was even more annoying was that the beating was not from a humble commoner’s daughter, but also a common daughter of her subordinate!
Lady Feng was furious, Lady Feng was furious .
Therefore, regardless of how General Yu racked his brains to find topics of conversation, Lady Feng and Feng Sihuai ignored them .
When Yu Linglong walked into the drawing-room, what she saw was this awkward situation .
Lady Feng heard the footsteps and looked up . She saw a young girl in a light green silk dress standing inside the door . Her eyebrows were like crescent moons, her face was like a hibiscus, her luminous eyes were moving about, and her tender cheeks were soft . Even though she looked less than fourteen or fifteen years old, she had never seen such a stunning beauty in her life .
It’s just that the girl’s pretty little face was full of a dignified indifference, which was chilling .
Lady Feng couldn’t help but be startled . She knew her son’s temperament . He was just womanizing outside and was unsuccessful in teasing her and instead got a beating . However, she did not expect that the other party was such a weak young lady .
General Yu saw that Yu Linglong, the culprit, entered the room, and he didn’t know whether to scold her or not . If he didn’t scold her, he couldn’t face the Lady Feng that came seeking punishment; if he scolded her, well, he really didn’t have the guts to .
He fully believed that if he dared to accuse Yu Linglong, this commoner’s daughter would definitely not let him come to power in public . In order not to ruin his name, General Yu decided not to embarra.s.s himself .
After clearing his throat, General Yu said, “This…this is the little girl . ”
