Chapter 134 Slag Father Names Another Concubine, Stepmother Changes Strategy [2]

“Okay,” Third Yiniang gladly answered. They went towards Fourth Yiniang’s courtyard. They weren’t fools. Zi You’s last sentence reminded them that they should band together against Furen.

When Zi You walked into Yiping Ju, Wang Yiping was scolding her personal maidservant. Are you trying to scald me? You can’t even make a cup of tea. What else can you do? Get out!”

With her last abuse, she threw a cup of hot tea and its tea lid at the maidservant called Yanhong’s face. Yanhong and Yenhong were confidants of Wang Yiping. When Wang Yiping got married, Yanhong was gifted to her and also prepared for Mu YingRui.

Wang Yiping’s yiniang told her, “No matter what, when you’re pregnant and cannot serve him, you cannot have your husband leave you and go to someone else’s courtyard. You must find a way to tie him down.”

But she wasn’t pregnant and this Yanhong was tangled with Mu YingRui. How could she not be angry?

When Mu YingRui was here, she didn’t dare to go overboard. Now that he wasn’t here, she didn’t want to deal with Yanhong anymore.

Zi You watched Yanhong come crying out holding her face. She deliberately looked sympathetic and quietly slipped her a handkerchief. She whispered, “Go put a cold water compress on your face. I will give you some burn ointment so it won’t leave a scar later.”

“Thank you, Xiaojie!” Yanhong gratefully took Zi You’s handkerchief and ran out.

Zi You lifted the curtain and went inside. Wang Yiping didn’t know that it was her and shouted, “Didn’t I tell you to go out?! Why did you come back?”

“What’s the matter, mother?” Zi You’s eyes held contempt and cynicism. She feigned concerned as she went to respectfully greet Wang Yiping. “Are you feeling unwell? Or did someone anger you?”

That voice like a yellow warbler leaving a valley. Other than the Mu Zi You whom she hated and hoped would disappear, it could be no one else.

The resentment in Wang Yiping’s eyes flashed quickly. She quickly smiled and pretended to lovingly hold Zi You’s hand. She used her gentlest voice to say, “Oh, You’er is here. Mother is fine. That darned maidservant Yanhong angered me. She can’t even make a cup of tea. I was almost scalded.”

“Oh……” Zi You seemed to suddenly understand. She deliberately smiled cutely. “I was thinking that mother is unhappy because Fifth Yiniang is pregnant and father named a new yiniang. It seems that mother is more broadminded than You’er thought.

“You are worthy of being a prominent family’s noble xiaojie. You’re definitely not like those vicious and malicious cheap women who can’t be seen in public. You’er is very proud to have a mother like you!”

Zi You’s tongue was like a sword. Every word was like a knife stabbing in Wang Yiping’s heart. She pulled out the knife and stabbed it in. She pulled it out and stabbed it in again. Wang Yiping’s heart was badly mutilated and her throat was stifled.

Wang Yiping couldn’t say anything. Her face changed from white to black, black to green, and finally back to dead white. Her eyes were like the tongue of a poisonous snake’s. They kept spitting out to land on Zi You’s body.

If she really was a poisonous snake, it would be unknown how many times Zi You would have died already.

How could Zi You not feel that poisonous and vicious gaze? As she was feeling secretly refreshed, her face still looked naïve and cute.

She looked at Wang Yiping’s stomach and asked dangerously, “Mother, when are you going to give birth to a small baby brother for You’er? You’er will definitely play with him every day.”

Wang Yiping was so angry that blood rushed from her heart. She felt a fishy sweetness rush right into her throat.

She forcibly swallowed and suppressed her anger. “Shut up!”

Slut! You finally broke character and can’t take it anymore? Zi You hid the ridicule in her eyes and deliberately looked at her in grievance and timidity. “Mother, what did You’er say wrong?”

She didn’t finish speaking and her eyes were like two blooming ice lotuses. They were crystal clear and earth-shatteringly beautiful.

Wang Yiping knew what her ending would be if Old General Mu found out.

Thus, her teeth were almost gnashed. She enunciated word by word, “Girls should be reserved. Don’t talk about having children. If others hear it, they will say that you don’t have a proper upbringing.”

“Whoever dares to do so, I will knock out her teeth.” Zi You took back her tears and extended her small jade-like fist. “What kind of people are You’er’s father and mother? Are you people whom they can insult?”

She didn’t give Wang Yiping another opportunity to speak. She curtsied to leave and said, “Mother, I’m taking my leave now. I’ll tell grandfather to find a good gynecologist to condition your body, so that you can give me a little brother soon.”

“There’s no need. You’er, come back. Come back……” Wang Yiping jumped up from the chaise and rushed to chase Zi You.

Cold sweat soaked through her clothes in an instant. If the gynecologist was good and knew that she couldn’t conceive because of long-term use of medicine, then it was time for her to die.

She ran in a panic to catch up to Zi You. She strongly suppressed the urge that she couldn’t directly strangle Zi You. She grabbed her and panted as she shook her head. “You’er, your grandfather is busy. Don’t bother him. When your father comes back, mother will ask him to find a doctor.”

So we can find your lover and thus, can’t find anything out, right? Zi You was black belly and stubbornly insisted on going to find her grandfather.

In fact, she did not want to find a doctor to diagnose Wang Yiping. She was doing this to let Wang Yiping tremble with and live in fear all day long.

So, when she heard Wang Yiping’s words, she immediately pretended to hesitate for a moment. She nodded and promised, “Okay. If mother needs one, you must tell You’er.”

Wang Yiping nodded frantically. After she saw Zi You leave, she wiped the cold sweat off her forehead. She dawdled and slowly returned to her courtyard.

Wang Yiping saw her confidant nanny, Wei mama, whom she had sent to Duke Yingguo fu. She pulled her into the house and whispered, “What did my mother say?”

It turned out that she sent Wei mama to ask her actress mother how to ruin Zi You’s reputation and get Zhao HongXiang to make Yu Lanxuan his main wife.

This was something that she and Zhao HongXiang’s mother Nee Chen discussed. Only Wang Yiping never thought that Nee Chen just wanted to use her to prevent Zi You from marrying into Duke Yongnan fu. She had never thought of having her son marry that lowly Shu daughter as a main wife.

Her exact words were, “If he marries a Shu woman, our fu will lose face. As for that Mu Zi You, she’s too beautiful and enchanting. That’s not a blessing.”

In fact, Nee Chen opposed Zi You for only one reason. That was because her son and husband liked her too much. She couldn’t stand the idea of the two most important men in her life looking at other women. This was jealousy. Blatant jealousy!

Wei mama smiled and sent the servants away. She whispered long-windedly into Wang Yiping’s ear for a long time. Then she put a paper packet of powder in Wang Yiping’s hand.

A sinister smile immediately appeared on Wang Yiping’s face. She viciously said, “Today, that heartless scoundrel sent me a letter to tell me that that cheap wench Shui YouLian is pregnant. He also named a Sixth Yiniang. I heard that that Sixth Yiniang is a seventh-rank Ministry of Investigation official’s Shu daughter.

“When that scoundrel went to his house to drink, he immediately hooked up with that cheap woman. I’m really angered to death! His father and brother are not lustful people. How come he is so shameless?”

Wei mama secretly smiled. She thought, ‘If Laoye was like his father Old General Mu and his brother Young General Mu, how could you hook up with him? If he could do so with you, why wouldn’t he do the same with other women?’

Of course, she could only think these words. In front of Wang Yiping, she still had to say pleasant-sounding words. Although Wang Yiping grew up on her milk, her son and daughter’s slavery deeds were in Wang Yiping’s hands. She had to be obedient to this xiaojie.

Wei mama considered for a while and said to Wang Yiping in a low voice, “You don’t have to worry about those two cheap wenches. Fifth Yiniang’s origins are low. Even if she gives birth to a son, she won’t be able to make any waves. In addition, when she returns for the Spring Festival, we will still have time to act.

“As for Sixth Yiniang, Furen doesn’t need to worry even more. Her father is only a small seventh-rank official. Can a Shu daughter of such a small official be Furen’s……”

“What’s wrong with a Shu daughter?” Wei mama did not finish speaking, but Wang Yiping was provoked and interrupted. “Do you look down on me because I’m Shu-born too? Tell me. Tell me!”

Wang Yiping acted like she was crazy. She desperately shook Wei mama’s shoulder. Her eyes were blood-red.

Wei mama knelt down in fright. She slapped herself while explaining, “Furen misunderstands. How can I disrespect Furen? Although Furen is Shu-born, but your appearance and talents are exceptional. You are the most favored in Duke Yingguo fu. Even the Di daughter is not comparable to Furen!”

The fawning calmed Wang Yiping’s emotions. In fact, she knew that her nanny did not mean to despise her, but she was just ridiculed by Zi You. Plus, the word “Shu-born” was like a buried thorn in her heart. She did not allow others to touch it.

Wang Yiping quickly helped Wei mama up. She knew that she could not offend all of her servants. She needed them to do bad deeds!

Wang Yiping randomly took off a not-very-good silver-colored carved orchid hairpin and handed it to Wei mama. “Give it to your daughter. I’m in a bad mood. I was just angered by Second Yiniang, Third Yiniang, and that darned yatou. Don’t keep it in mind. Help me check on Yanhong. That yatou was sneaking around with that darned yatou and said something……”

Wang Yiping whispered in Wei mama’s ear for a long time. The two people’s sneaky expressions were like a pair of specters that hid the dark because they couldn’t come out into the light.

Actually, Wang Yiping did not see Zi You and Yanhong talking. She merely saw that Yanhong left and Zi You came in afterwards. She was suspicious and afraid that Yanhong moved over to Zi You’s side.

It was nighttime. Zi You knew that he would certainly come tonight, so she told Weishali early on, “If An Wang Shizi comes, don’t stop him. Let him come in.”

So, when Shangguan LingRan saw that no small animals stopped him that night, he was so happy that his frosty expression disappeared. He ran over to Zi You and acted spoiled. “You’er, are you waiting for me? It seems like you originally not welcoming me has turned into you hoping that I will come. This is great. When they say that sincerity splits open metal, they were talking about me.”

Zi You’s pair of deep purple eyes filled with ridicule and helplessness. She huffily looked at him. “I really doubt if you’re pretending to be Heartless Gongzi. How can such a heartless person be as childish as you?”

Shangguan LingRan did not get angry, but smiled devilishly and charmingly. “You don’t believe it? Then come with me to Emei Mountain and my Xuanyuan Sect. See if I lied to you.”

“I’m too lazy to talk to you.” Zi You coldly turned her head away. She was afraid of being immersed in that devilishly charming smile.

She feigned indifference. “Why did you come here tonight?”

“Why did De Fei summon you into the Palace?” Shangguan LingRan’s devilishly charming smile was finally replaced by a worried and concerned expression. “Don’t tell me that Shangguan Boyu is interested in you too. If so, I have to really think about how to make him remember that he cannot covet another peron’s woman!”

Shangguan LingRan did not look like a happy-go-lucky dandy when he spoke the last sentence. His body was shrouded in a layer of frost, like an overbearing thousand-year-old snow-capped mountain.

This appearance was very consistent with the Heartless Gongzi whom Jianghu depicted.

Zi You’s heart jumped. She unconsciously explained, “It’s not what you think. De Fei summoned me into the Palace because……”

“Because she wants you to cure her son’s paralysis, right?” Shangguan LingRan was not stupid. He immediately guessed De Fei’s real motive.

Zi You nodded. “Yes.”

“Did you agree?” Shangguan LingRan looked nervously at Zi You. He didn’t want the woman whom he liked to have any contact with other men.

In particular, there was inevitable skin contact with treating injuries. As soon as he thought of Zi You’s soft and small pair of hands stopping on other men’s bodies, he would go crazy. How could he tolerate Zi You treating them?

The thing he really wanted to do now was to slice off all of Zhao HongXiang’s body parts that had been touched by Zi You.

In the same line of thought, he didn’t want Zi You to touch Second Wangzi’s body.

Zi You naturally did not know what he was thinking. She answered without concealing anything. “I refused in public, but secretly agreed. However, I did not agree on a place or time of treatment. It’s up to him to avoid other people’s eyes and notice. I want to see if he is worthy for me to treat him.”
