His Peasant Wife : Yao Ling

"Xiu, release the old servant," Yao Ling gave an order to Xiu. Xiu quickly released the old servant without any delay. His face showed the disgust that he felt when he held that old servant.

Qin Xiu Ai quickly went to her nanny and hugged her. Without another word, she helped the nanny up and went out. She didn't want to stay any longer and just gave a curt nod to Yao Ying and Yao Ling. Her pride didn't let her bend down to another, even though she was currently suffering a defeat.

Yao Ling never cared about those fake etiquettes; it was better if she was quickly gone. After watching those annoying master and servant pair's performance, she released a heavy sigh - feeling tired all of a sudden. The event just now really drained her mind.

Yao Ling pouted to herself. She didn't even have the chance to enjoy the forbidden place that Xiao Yu had mentioned before and entertain herself there.

Yao Ling saw Yao Ying was still leisurely sitting down without a care. A silly smile was decorating his face, making her feel more and more annoyed. "What?" Yao Ling snarled at Yao Ying. She hadn't gotten her revenge for the event just now, and yet, he still dared to laugh?!

Yao Ying finally decided to move by standing up. He went to Yao Ling – still with his wolfish smile – and hugged her waist intimately.

Xiu could feel his cheek starting to become hotter. Without another word, he went out without making any sound. 'Master ah~ This servant is still a virgin ah~ If you behave intimately like that, this servant's nose will bleed!' With that thought in mind, he moved as fast as he could until he reached the first floor.

Xiao Yu was still guarding the stairs. She looked at Xiu's reddening cheeks and asked in confusion, "Why are you in such a hurry? And blushing too?"

Xiu cleared his throat in embarrassment. "No… nothing."

Xiao Yu felt that her job for guarding the stairs had finished and she needed to go back to her young mistress. She turned around, but before she could place one of her feet to the stairs, she was being held back by Xiu's words.

"What are you doing?" Xiao Yu asked in annoyance.

"Don't go up there!"

"Why? I need to go to Young Mistress – just in case she needs my help!"

"You can't! I'm pretty sure they will be angry if you bother them now!"

Xiao Yu furrowed her eyebrows. "What are they doing exactly?"

"You know… that…" Xiu stuttered.

"That… what?" Xiao Yu looked at him in confusion. Why did Xiu look so agitated? What kind of things both of their masters did that could make such a reaction from Xiu?

"That… that…" Xiu didn't know how to explain. He sighed and finally decided to whisper it to Xiao Yu, "Intimate thing!"

Xiao Yu could feel her own jaw dropped. Wha ---- what?! "Are you serious? In the middle of the day?" Xiao Yu couldn't help but blush. Her gossipy nature wanted to come out, but she reminded herself… the ones that did it was her masters ah~ She wasn't bold enough to gossip about them. She still needed to hold onto their golden thighs! [1] But… but… this was a juicy gossip ah~.

Xiu still remembered their amorous position and nodded. He couldn't help but blush, even the tip of his ears was reddening as well. Xiao Yu looked at him scrutinizingly and asked, "You already impregnated a woman. Why are you blushing like a maiden?"

Xiu looked at Xiao Yu in bewilderment. "What? What are you talking about? I never impregnated a woman!" Xiu almost shouted the last part. This kind of unbelievable gossip would cost him his name and honor! He felt like throwing up blood after hearing how she had slandered his name.

"Are you sure?" Xiao Yu squinted her eyes in disbelief. If that wasn't true, then why did he ask such questions?

"Of course I'm sure. I've never kissed a girl before and now... you expect me to impregnate someone? Are you crazy?!" Xiu felt like he wanted to knock some sense into this woman. Which part of him that made him look like a pervert?

Xiao Yu mumbled guiltily. "Who told you to ask about pregnancy?"

"I already told you! It was M-Y F-R-I-E-N-D!" Xiu even emphasized the last part in anger. "Not me!" He waved both of his hands in frustration. He couldn't believe how dense this woman was.

Xiao Yu smiled guiltily at him. "I'm sorry, then…" She pondered for a while, before attacking him with the next question, "Are you a virgin then?"

"…"

Xiu could feel her jaw dropped. He was speechless. How could this woman easily talk about his virginity? He looked at her full of resentment.

Xiao Yu cracked up, looking at Xiu's expression. She usually wasn't a brazen girl, but she somehow just loved to tease Xiu. Even though there was a pretty big scar on his face, his shy face looked so cute in her eyes. She started to believe in his innocence after looking at his angry face. His change of expressions was quite fun to look at.

Xiu finally realized that Xiao Yu was only teasing him. He shut his mouth and didn't feel like talking anymore. He wasn't a man of many words, but this Xiao Yu always made him talk too much. Maybe he should distance himself from her. After a second thought, that was impossible. They served the same couple and they bound to meet every day. Tsk! What a tough luck!

Xiao Yu noted his childishness and it made her want to laugh more, however, she held herself back. Otherwise, Xiu would probably kill her later. She wasn't sure though whether Xiu knew about all the gossip behind him. She didn't know how he would act if he found out. Maybe there would be a good show later. She was going to wait for the day Xiu threw a tantrum came.

The scene was pretty funny to look at though. Xiu was pouting like a little kid. He turned his face away from Xiao Yu while crossing both of his arms. On the other hand, Xiao Yu kept peeking at Xiu. She had already tried her hardest to hold back her amusement, but a trace of laughter still could be seen in her eyes. She didn't realize that the way she kept peeking at Xiu was too obvious and Xiu had noticed it. It made him feel more embarrassed and blushed.

Xiu couldn't help but think. He was a man, and yet, he was reduced as an amusement for this annoying girl. He blamed all of this to his young master. If there was no ridiculous order from him, he didn't have to ask around. If he didn't ask around, there would be no misunderstanding. If there was no misunderstanding, Xiao Yu wouldn't have the gut to mock him. It was all because of him!!!

However... he didn't dare to complain. He was only a pitiful servant ah~
