Transmigrer dans une chair à canon - Chapitre 3

Chen Qiu Rong thoughtfully said: “If Eldest Brother is being seduced by her, then he wouldn’t have come to the tea ceremony alone.

Plutôt, I feel that the Lin Qing Ci today is a little different from the past. Précédemment, she would put on thick makeup and dress pretentiously. Her words and actions domineering, but now it’s the total opposite.

The most perplexing part is the way she looks at me is very weird, like she doesn’t know us.”

Ye Wei Jun doesn’t dare to let his guard down: “This evil woman could possibly be planning some tricks. Qiu Rong, I’m normally not in the Fu (TL: official residence), you be more careful, don’t let her trap you to deal with you.”

Chen Qiu Rong nodded.

Ye Wei Jun still had some personal affairs to handle, he warned Chen Qiu Rong a few times then left.

On the way back to the courtyard, Ah Meng indignantly said: "Manquer, we can’t possibly guard against Eldest Madam forever. As you can see today, how arrogant was her personal servant girl. Avec un tel tempérament, one wouldn’t need to think about her master’s.”

In Chen Qiu Rong’s heart, she was also unwilling: “Lin Qing Ci is powerful, we can’t help but to be fearful of. Next time if she doesn’t aggravate us, we also don’t let her seize our mistakes, preventing her from blowing up the matter and use this opportunity to create trouble for us.”

De ce côté, Lin Xiao Ci was very quickly left behind by Ye Shao Qing who had caught up with her.

Ning Xiang unhappily said: ” Miss, this Guye (TL: referring to her master’s husband) c'est trop. Shao General said his hearing is extraordinary, you were being humiliated by a servant just now and the distance wasn’t far, your servant doesn’t believe that he couldn’t hear what the disrespectful words of Second Madam’s servant.

À la fin, not only did he not help you, he lightly spoke a sentence to resolve the conflict between the Second Madam and us, obviously bias towards the Second house.

Également, you waited for him, but he didn’t wait for you. When the third day of wedding arrives, your servant will surely tell on him to Laoye (TL: Vieux maitre), make things difficult for him.” (TL: it’s a tradition to return to the bride’s residence on the third day of wedding)

Lin Xiao Ci measured Ning Xiang, this girl’s temper is not mild at all. How did she kneel for her this morning?

Was the original owner that scary?

Without minding, elle a souri: “These small matters don’t have to be reported back, it’s easy to raise conflicts. He probably has some urgent matters and therefore did not wait for me.”

“But he should at least inform.”

Lin Xiao Ci: “…” That’s also true, this guy did not consider her at all.

Self-comfortingly: “He’s probably too rushed, don’t harp on it, some things if taken too seriously will just make yourself feel suffocated, one must learn to let go, this way no one could affect your emotions.”

Ning Xiang’s eyes suddenly reddened: “wuwu… My poor Miss, if you could come round sooner, you need not have married into Ye family and suffer such humiliation.”

Lin Xiao Ci: “….” Why is this girl like an aunt?

Patting her arm in a comforting manner: “Already married, if there is any regret, do not mention it again, in case someone heard it and we suffer criticisms.”

"Oui."

Reaching her own courtyard, Lin Xiao Ci signaled the cleaning servants to withdraw, leaving only Ning Xiang.

She looked at Lin Xiao Ci, dit doucement: "Manquer, why are you acting so secretive?"

Lin Xiao Ci pretended to be mad, with a stiff face and firm tone: “How do you speak?"

Ning Xiang covered her mouth: “wu, servant knows her wrong.” She wanted to kneel again.

Lin Xiao Ci extended her leg to stop her: “I was just joking, don’t kneel so easily. It’s not like I’m some fierce beast.”

“Miss is magnanimous.”

Lin Xiao Ci glanced at the flatterer Ning Xiang and pursed her lips. This girl is truly interesting. She’s obviously very scared of her but still tried so hard to make up with her.

Lin Xiao Ci retrieved the red packets from her sleeve and took out a piece of silver note. The words on the notes were all in traditional Chinese with many red stamps, and she could only make out twenty plus words.

She doesn’t know the value of the silver notes, but she knows it must worth quite a bit.

Ning Xiang stretched her head over, flatly said: “Laoye Furen is so biased, hearsay during Second Young Madam’s tea ceremony, they put together two hundred liang, while ours is only this little, not even enough for you to buy a hairpin.”

Furen – wife/madam

Liang – referring to money in the olden days

Cette fois, Lin Xiao Ci’s face truly turned cold: “No matter how much the elders give is still a kind of sincerity, si c'était toi, what would you think if others have taken your money and still complain?

Également, you mentioned that I won’t be able to buy a hairpin with twenty liang, I don’t lack money, why fuss? Originally I was going to gift this money to you, but since you think it’s too little, then I will spend it myself!” She kept the red packet and turned towards the Master’s residence.

Ning Xiang really wanted to bite off her own tongue, hurriedly catching up: "Manquer, your servant knows her wrong.”

"Trop tard!” she took two steps and turned back: “Go to the kitchen and bring me some food, I’m about to die of hunger.”

Ning Xiang did as she’s told.

Lin Xiao Ci stepped into the wedding residence.

Ye Shao Qing was sitting at the tea table in the living hall. In front of him was placed buns, white porridge and some exquisite side dishes.

He didn’t touch his chopsticks, probably waiting for her, but he did not give her even a glance.

Lin Xiao Ci find him being here very unexpected, she doesn’t know if he had heard her just now.

But her reputation was already so bad, even if he had heard her, she predicts he would call her pretentious.

She secretly glanced at him, and found him to be looking as cold and distant.

Par coïncidence, she did not want to bother with him too. She doesn’t know Ning Xiang’s name, so she could only run out and called out Ning Xiang who hasn’t walked far: “Go eat your breakfast, you don’t have to serve me anymore.”

Ning Xiang said: "Manquer, your servant has already eaten in the morning. Ye family and the General Residence have similar rules, servants have to wake early to eat first.”

Lin Xiao Ci: "..."

There’s this kind of rule? Thank goodness she’s a newly wedded bride, if not she would have exposed herself: “Then you may go rest.”

"Oui."

Lin Xiao Ci once again stepped into the wedding residence, Ye Shao Qing has already started eating. He treated him as non-existent and walked over to the washbasin to clean her hands. She took a seat opposite him and took a bun and picked up some vegetables with her chopsticks and put into her mouth.

The taste was average and her body got uncomfortable again. After eating a palm sized bun and drinking half a bowl of porridge, she stood up and went to the neighboring bed chamber.

The bed sheets have been changed by the servants, but were still in the auspicious red color.

She removed her shoes, casually placed her hairpin at the bedside and dig under the covers with her outer robes on.

The mattress was soft and she unconsciously let out a satisfied sound, and shut her eyes.

After sleeping for awhile, she half-consciously felt that her body was chilly. Her eyes opened in shock and collided with Ye Shao Qing’s eyes, her eyes moving down from his handsome face, stupified.

Ye Shao Qing expressionlessly took his hands back.

Lin Xiao Ci loudly shrieked, rolled and climbed to the inner part of the bed, and balled the clothes at her chest while trembling.

When she saw the marks on her body previously, she was already furious. The original owner was so beautiful that even as a female herself, she thought that she was very attractive and would want to protect.

But he actually didn’t care and on the wedding night violently forced himself on her.

Maintenant, he even use this chance as she was sound asleep tp make his move, truly a beast!

Staring at him hatefully, she didn’t dare to scold for fear of a beating but in her heart, she couldn’t wait to pierce his hand.

Ye Shao Qing put down the medicinal bottle, dit froidement: “Since you have awoken, put it on yourself, once a day.”

Lin Xiao Ci didn’t make a sound, her eyes moved to the top of the messy brocade blanket and saw a white porcelain medicinal bottle about a finger length long. Beside it was also a wooden stopper which were quite obvious on top of the red blanket.

Elle a été très surprise, was he help her apply the medicine?

Her wounds were not as painful any more.

Trying to give her candy after giving her a slap to make up so that he could be a groom again tonight?

Éhonté!
