Those concubines plus Wang Yiping together didn’t even amount to one of Dier’s toes!
Thinking of the glamorous, mysterious, and beautiful as Chang’e, the lady in the moon Dier, Mu YingRui restlessly pushed Wang Yiping away.
Wang Yiping was getting excited by Mu YingRui’s rubbing when she was pushed away by him. She couldn’t help but want to entangle with him some more. But the maidservant Xiaohui loudly announced, “Xiaojie is paying respects to Laoye and Furen.”
Mu YingRui fixed the clothes Wang Yiping messed up. He deliberately snorted and solemnly said, “Come in.”
Carrying a cold elegant smile on her face, Zi You curtsied respectfully, “You’er pays her respects to father and mother.”
Mu YingRui coughed and dissatisfiedly asked, “When did you come back? I heard you bought more than fifty slaves? Why did you buy so many slaves for?”
Zi You answered unhurriedly, “I returned more than half an hour ago. Grandfather reprimanded You’er for a while, for buying so many slaves. He was going to punish You’er but uncle and aunt came over to intercede. Grandfather then forgave You’er. You’er has not thought about what to do with so many slaves yet. When I was wandering around the market, I saw the slaves were pitiful so I bought them. You’er acted recklessly and have asked grandfather for forgiveness. If father is dissatisfied, You’er will accept the punishment.”
She elegantly kneeled, with head bowed, putting on an air of accepting punishment.
Only Mu YingRui was blocked; he couldn’t even say one word.
After returning, I came late to pay respects to you because grandfather was punishing me.
Grandfather was going to punish me but uncle and aunt interceded on my behalf, but you and mother didn’t even ask a word.
Grandfather already punished me. If you didn’t think it was enough, you can punish me again.
After these words were spoken, if he still punished and blamed her, then was he still human? Especially when compared to her uncle and aunt?
Not only could he not punish or blame her, but he must show concern. Otherwise, when his old man knew, he would scold him for being indifferent and cold to his deceased wife’s daughter.
Mu YingRui swallowed his anger with difficulty. He looked at Wang Yiping.
With a face full of concern, Wang Yiping stretched her arms out and helped Zi You up.
“This girl is too willful! No wonder grandfather punished you. Seeing they were pitiful and you bought so many lowly slaves? How did your grandfather punish you? Did he beat you? Does it hurt?”
As an official, Mu YingRui was used to acting. He was very earnest in his acting and didn’t seem fake at all.
And Wang Yiping was on an equivalent level. Grabbing Zi You’s hand, her tears started flowing. “Seeing they are pitiful, didn’t you only buy a few more slaves? It’s not as if we can’t afford it in the Manor. Did you take a beating? Where? Quickly let mother take a look. I’m also to blame. If I met you at the door, it would have been okay. Your father was so worried it was your first time out without adult supervision that something would happen, that he got chest pains. So I couldn’t throw him out. Otherwise, mother would have been at the door to meet you.”
You could lie without a script now? I have never heard that worrying about someone would cause chest pains. The scum male didn’t have any heart problems before. And even if he did, you didn’t go find a doctor?
Zi You had a black belly and pretending to be worried for Mu YingRui said, “Ah! Is it serious father? Do we need to get a doctor for a diagnosis? This is a symptom of a heart condition.”
