Chapter 10 Childlike Innocence
Chapter 10 Childlike Innocence
Have to admit.
Miss Ye, having lost all sense of shame, is quite a character to watch.
at the same time.
In the courtyard outside the house.
Under a pavilion, in a place where artificial hills cluster together.
Hearing the faint sounds coming from inside the room, the Third Madam, who was sitting there, had a livid face and her knuckles were clenched so tightly they turned white.
The servants in the courtyard had already been dismissed by Liu Siying.
At this moment, apart from her daughter who was still inside the house and the little bastard who raised horses, only the Third Madam and her personal maid, Granny Qing, who had come from her maiden home, remained in the huge courtyard.
"You son of a bitch, how dare you humiliate the young lady like this! I'll go and kill him!"
Standing to the side, with her sword in her arms, Granny Qing could no longer contain the rage that was about to erupt from her heart. She gritted her teeth so hard they were almost shattered, and muttered curses under her breath. She drew her sword from its sheath with a clang, ready to rush into the house and kill the servant boy with her sword.
"Grandma!"
The third wife called out to Feng Qing, her eyes filled with weariness and helplessness.
"Don't get angry for no reason right now. The immediate priority is to think of a way to clean up the mess!"
"It's also my fault for being out of my mind. Right now, Ah Yin is at a crucial moment in the struggle for the heirship with Ye Jingxuan from the second branch of the family. I absolutely cannot afford to make a mistake in the heat of the moment!"
The third wife's words carried a hint of regret, but more than anything, they expressed remorse.
Feng Qing, who had been stopped, looked at her young mistress with a helpless expression.
Sometimes she really couldn't understand what the young lady was thinking, that she could develop feelings for a wandering doctor and even have a child with him.
The young lady should have lived a life of luxury and had a bright future. Her suitors were as numerous as fish crossing a river. Not to mention Qinzhou City, even in the entire Great Xia Dynasty, countless young masters and geniuses from wealthy families longed to win her favor, and even had the hope of taking over the vast Ye family in the future.
But now, he is at the mercy of a lowly stable boy.
A woman of divine grace, yet she had to use her incomparably pure body to fawn over and please a mere horse slave!
If this matter were to spread, who knows how many more rivals this stable boy would have in love?
But what's the point of saying all this?
It's all because Miss didn't keep herself pure in the past, which led to this terrible mistake.
"Miss, forgive my bluntness, but the most crucial thing right now isn't this servant boy. He's already received his share of the benefits, and I've seen him diligently cultivating these past two days. As long as we keep him calm, the secret can still be kept. The key is... that doctor back home!"
Feng Qing hadn't finished speaking.
The doctor she mentioned was the young lady's lover and her biological father.
Liu Siying also knew what she was going to say next.
For a moment, the atmosphere in the pavilion became somewhat somber.
Feng Qing stopped short of saying anything, her brows furrowed in silence. She knew that her mistress had been in a relationship with that quack doctor for many years, and she feared that her mistress was reluctant to let go. Therefore, her words at this moment lacked certainty.
But she clearly underestimated Ye Yin's importance in the Third Madam's heart.
Liu Siying hesitated for a moment, then made a firm decision. A resolute glint flashed in her slightly seductive, foxy eyes as she gritted her teeth and said in a deep voice, "You're right, prevention is better than cure. Grandma Qing, it's kind of you to make the trip to Xiangshui County. Don't do it yourself; let my father arrange for someone!"
"The Pei family pharmacy was originally sponsored by my Liu family. It's no big deal to take it over to my Liu family now. Let my father fabricate a pretext that Pei Zhengtong intended to seize the family's wealth and kill him. Then this matter can be buried in the dust."
"Now that you've killed him, I also need to teach this little servant a lesson. Otherwise, he'll get carried away and cause trouble sooner or later!"
A ruthless and decisive glint flashed in Liu Siying's eyes.
That's right, Ye Yin's biological father was Pei Zhengtong, the legendary physician from the martial arts world, who was the owner of the Pei family's pharmacy in Xiangshui County and whom Ye Yin had asked to invite that day by the eldest daughter-in-law of the Ye family.
She loves Pei Zhengtong.
Even after marrying into the Ye family, she often used the pretext of asking Doctor Pei to treat the clan's members to secretly have affairs with him.
But in the end, it was nothing more than romantic love between men and women.
Moreover, after so many years, there is not much affection left between the two. Pei Zhengtong has not only married and had children, but also, with the help of the Liu family, he has been promoted from a quack doctor to a famous physician. I have given him enough!
For the sake of his daughter Ye Yin's future, this little bit of love is nothing.
"I'll set off immediately!"
Seeing that her mistress had finally made a decision, Feng Qing's eyes lit up and she immediately spoke.
And just then...
A breeze wafted in from the window of the small house not far away.
"Waaaah~ You scoundrel, how could you do this? I've never heard of such a shameful person before..."
In the wind, Ye Yin's crying voice seemed to be mixed with anger and shame.
The third wife had no cultivation to rely on, so she could only vaguely hear her daughter's angry rebuke, but could not make out the specific content.
However, Feng Qing was a martial artist who had already entered the Qi Sensing Realm. She had been protecting Liu Siying since she was a child, and her strength was profound, so she naturally heard everything clearly.
A murderous glint resurfaced on her face.
"Damn it, that bastard is truly hateful! Given the chance, I'll beat him to a pulp!"
As she left, Feng Qing muttered curses under her breath.
The thought of her noble and proud young lady being manipulated by that servant in some strange position filled her with rage, and she wished she could smash the whole house to pieces with one blow.
Liu Siying's expression shifted, and she lowered her head and sighed silently.
……
Much later.
Ye Yin, with her plump and long legs, sat languidly on the edge of the bed like a beautiful snake, her cheeks flushed as bright as the sunset. Her phoenix eyes held both anger and shame, lingering there.
just.
When Ye Yin, who was exhausted from the ordeal, raised her head and glanced at Ning Xiuyang, a look of surprise flashed in her eyes.
This little servant... why does he look a little different from before?
Although he was a lowly servant who spent his days with horses, upon closer inspection, he was much more handsome than those self-proclaimed noblemen from wealthy families. While not exactly handsome, he was certainly good-looking, and with a little dressing up, he wouldn't be much less attractive than those sons of wealthy families.
He may not have been eating well for a long time, as he looks too thin and his skin is dull. Given time, he will surely grow taller and more mature, becoming a gentle and refined gentleman.
More importantly, for some reason, looking at him at this moment always gave me a feeling that made my heart tremble.
Could it be because it's already with him...?
Do not!
impossible!
I am a woman determined to surpass Ye Qingxian and even pursue the Holy Empress of Daqi. How can I be trapped by such a lowly servant?
Thinking of this, Ye Yin's eyes hardened again.
After getting up, she simply draped the clothes that had fallen to the ground over herself.
Turning around, he found the little servant staring at him with a flippant look, his aggressive gaze seemingly containing a hint of admiration.
Ye Yin's heart skipped a beat. Her eyes darted away, and she turned her head away, coldly snorting, "What are you looking at? Hmph, now that you've mastered the basics of martial arts, don't bother me anymore. I'll have someone send you a powerful medicinal herb later, and we'll consider ourselves even!"
She knew her idea was unrealistic.
In particular, having just knelt before him as devoutly as a servant, any attempt to appear tough now would only be a way for her to bolster her own weakness.
Ning Xiuyang couldn't help but chuckle. "Sixth Miss is truly full of childlike innocence and has such whimsical ideas."
Ye Yin's face turned cold, and she glared at Ning Xiuyang guiltily, saying weakly, "What do you mean! You little servant, don't be so stubborn, or I will definitely fight you to the death!"
Ning Xiuyang chuckled and shook his head, saying, "Don't say such unrealistic things anymore. Do you think you can scare me?"
"Then, what exactly do you want!" Ye Yin felt wronged and was about to cry.
These past few days, whenever I've set foot in this house, this little servant has used every trick in the book to manipulate me.
As the sixth young lady of the prestigious Ye family, she has enjoyed a life of ease and success over the years, rarely encountering any obstacles on her path of cultivation. With the Ye family's abundant resources and support, she has already surpassed many of her peers at the tender age of eighteen. She has entered the fourth stage of the five realms of spiritual movement, and her cultivation level of the Qi Sensing Realm is enough to make her look down on everything.
Her suitors were as numerous as carp crossing a river, with countless talented men eager to marry her.
But now, her life is in the hands of one of her own horse-raising servants, and she is even forced to submit to this man.
Her fragrant, pure body was placed next to his body, which reeked of horse manure. Even if Da Shan told him the truth, probably no one would believe it.
How could such a stark contrast not make her feel wronged?
Ning Xiuyang smiled faintly, patted the bed beside him, and looked at Ye Yin calmly, saying, "Don't forget, in the eyes of outsiders you are the high and mighty sixth young lady of the Ye family, but in front of me, you are just a servant, nothing more!"
"Do you need me to continue teaching you how to do it?"
Ye Yin's defiance and arrogance made Ning Xiuyang realize that in the legendary stories in his dreams, and in some of the folk tales in this world, there were always stories about cowherds and fairies, servants and young ladies falling in love and pledging their lives to each other. But now it seemed that if the cowherd hadn't taken away the fairy's clothes, he would never have been able to marry her.
Just like how he, a stable boy, only had the chance to change his fate after mastering the inner demons of the noble lady Ye Yin.
Otherwise, even if one possesses the treasure mirror, it would be difficult to make any changes in this strictly hierarchical mansion.
