Translator: NovelMultiverse | Editor: NovelMultiverse

Yu Linglong returned to the room and sat angrily by the table. After such a fuss, her sleepiness had disappeared.

She turned over the teacup and wanted to pour some to drink. Unexpectedly, the teapot was empty.

Xuan Cao and Ling’er were squeezing in the door, peeking from the crack of the door to see if Lord Xu had left. There was no one in the room for a while.

As soon as Yu Linglong put down the teapot, she heard a crisp voice: “Miss, let me come.”

A maid walked in carrying a kettle, filled the teapot with hot water, poured tea for Yu Linglong, and steadily brought it to her: “Miss, please have some tea.”

Yu Linglong glanced at her and vaguely recognized her as one of the four maids sent by Mama Cui that day, and asked casually: “What is your name?”

The maid lowered her eyes and replied, “I’m called Xiao Qing.”

Yu Linglong nodded but didn’t pick up the tea. Xiao Qing kept holding the teacup and stood by patiently.

After a moment of effort, Xuan Cao and Ling’er had already returned to the room, and they were all startled when they saw Xiao Qing standing beside Yu Linglong with tea.

Ling’er reacted first, and immediately stepped forward to grab the teacup and scolded: “Who let you in? You didn’t look in the mirror, and you are not worthy to serve the tea to the lady!”

Mama Cui was sullen on that day, and now Ling’er vented her feelings to Xiao Qing.

Xiao Qing seemed to be taken aback. Her delicate little face was full of grievances: “The sisters are not in the room. The lady wants to drink tea, I just—”

Xuan Cao frowned: “Didn’t I teach you the rules? If the lady did not call, no one is allowed to enter the room!”

Xiao Qing pouted. She didn’t dare to speak but was still unconvinced. She glanced at Yu Linglong as if she was waiting for her to serve justice.

Yu Linglong took a sip of Ling’er’s tea and then said leisurely: “I asked you to listen to Xuan Cao’s orders, but you would not. If you refuse to listen to Xuan Cao, then you will not listen to me.”

Only then did Xiao Qing know how powerful she was, and quickly knelt down: “I came here for the first time and didn’t understand the rules. I know that this was wrong!

Turning around again she asked Xuan Cao: “Sister, I am young and ignorant, so please spare me this time!”

Yu Linglong smiled coldly. This girl saw her expression.

Do you think you can be spared by kneeling? She underestimated her!

Yu Linglong took out the saucer under the teacup and handed it to Xiao Qing: “Put it under your knees, kneel down in the yard, and get up again when the sun goes down.”

Xiao Qing bit her lip with two tears in her eyes. She didn’t dare to resist and didn’t dare try to resolve it, so she took the saucer aggrievedly: “…Yes.”

At midday, Xiao Qing was kneeling in the yard under the hot sun and sweating profusely with the saucer. Even Xuan Cao felt it was a little unbearable.

“Miss, it’s been a long time now, should I ask her to get up?”

Yu Linglong didn’t even glance outside at the courtyard, and said coldly, “Why, has your heart is softened?”[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]

Xuan Cao paused, then whispered: “I just think that Xiao Qing didn’t make a serious mistake…”

Yu Linglong sneered slightly: “Didn’t make a serious mistake? I asked you to teach them. Today, they dared to not listen to you. If I don’t punish them severely, will they serve you in the future? Not only will they not obey you, they won’t even obey me!”

Xuan Cao knew that Yu Linglong was going to use Xiao Qing to establish her prestige, so she didn’t dare to speak anymore.

Ling’er said to the side: “Xuan Cao, the lady is right. These people are sent by the lady, and they will definitely not listen to her. If we don’t take the opportunity to clean them up, they will think our lady is really foolish!”

Yu Linglong nodded: “These girls look well-behaved, none of them are easy to deal with!”

Xuan Cao and Ling’er were only there for a while, so Xiao Qing grabbed the opportunity to look attentive. Thus, in her room, there were many eyes staring at her!

This move of Mu Shi seemed to show her as good, but she was actually putting her informers in so that she had to choose her words carefully in the future!

Yu Linglong had been holding in a belly of fire for a while, and she was even angrier when she thought that Mu Shi would play with her again.

If you mess with me, I won’t let you have a good life!

Yu Linglong lowered her eyes and asked something that seemed irrelevant: “About Sorceress Bai’s injury, shouldn’t she be almost healed?”

…

Within three days, Lord Xu came again.

Compared with the brashness of the previous two visits, his arrival this time looked very elegant. The female servants in the inner courtyard of the Yu house were also used to avoiding him.

Under the flowering tree, a stream meandered, and the colorful petals disappeared with the water.

Lord Xu, dressed in a white jade silk shirt, was sitting with his slender fingers fiddling a guqin in front of him. The instrument was humming, the water was gurgling, and the occasional chirping birds in the garden were very pleasant.

Ling’er saw this scene from the crack of the door and couldn’t help sighing: “It really looks better than a painting.”

After speaking, she turned around and ran into the room, shouting as she ran, “Miss, Lord Xu is here again!

Yu Linglong had already heard the sound of the guqin outside the door, but she thought it was the young lady in the Yu house who was practicing. She didn’t expect it to be that difficult guy again.

Yu Linglong turned over on the bed and was too lazy to even go out: “What are you doing with him?”

Xuan Cao smiled and said, “If the lady doesn’t go out, I’m afraid Lord Xu will play outside for the whole day!”

Yu Linglong looked at the hot sun outside, and said fiercely: “It’s best to dry him out!

Sometimes quiet, sometimes majestic, sometimes like a mountain and running water, and sometimes like an army of thousands of horses, Yu Linglong, although only listening to the sound of the guqin, had to admit that Lord Xu’s musical skills were really superb.

The weather in early summer was like a child’s face, changing when it wanted to. The sky was still clear just now. After a while, it was overcast, and in a blink of an eye, big raindrops had spattered down.

Ling’er lay in the crack of the door and looked for a long time, and couldn’t help shouting: “Miss, it’s raining outside!”

Yu Linglong said angrily: “If it rains, why don’t you hurry in? Let’s lie here and watch!”

Ling’er ran in while flicking the raindrops and laughed happily: “The master is still sitting there and playing, and he’s not afraid of getting wet from the rain!”

Yu Linglong glared at her and said: “If you have time to care about others, it is better to look after yourself!”

All of a sudden, the rain came down heavily.

General Yu looked at the heavy rain outside, sighed, and turned around and said: “Hurry up and give the prince an umbrella!”

If Lord Xu gets gonorrhea in his inner courtyard, then he would have to suffer the consequences.

The big butler tremblingly put the umbrella over Lord Xu, who was already drenched and cautiously persuaded: “Master, it’s getting late today. I’m afraid our fourth young lady is resting. How about you come back tomorrow?”

Lord Xu shook his head with a look of disappointment. He did not wipe the rain off his face, and he stood up holding the guqin and slowly walked out of the Yu house.

The butler held the umbrella all the way, and let Lord Xu out of the door, only to breathe a sigh of relief.

Standing on the street, Lord Xu looked around blankly and said: “You won’t even see me. What use do I have keeping this guqin!?”

With a bang, he threw the guqin in his hand to the ground!

The famous guqin from ancient times suddenly shattered in the rain!
