A superior primate.
It was a January night, and the cold wind was howling. Now it was raining, but the red lanterns hanging at the corners of the eaves gave off a warm glow.
Not long after, Luan 'er quietly came over with a blanket and a hand warmer.
"Master clearly knows that Miss is in poor health, but he still punished you to kneel for a night. Isn't he trying to kill me?!" Luan 'er cried with tears in her eyes.
"Why are you always crying?"
Ji Yunshu held the hand warmer, and her body gradually warmed up.
Luan 'er wiped her tears. "Miss, you are like this. You don't fight, and that's why you're being bullied."
"Who told you that?"
"Luan 'er isn't blind, so of course I can see. What about the First Miss pulling out your beloved cattail tree and putting it in her courtyard? So what if Fourth Miss cut all your winter clothes into pieces? Also, Second Young Master knocked over Old Master's glass lamp and blamed it on you. What do you say about that? Miss, you are kind-hearted and didn't pursue the matter, but they didn't appreciate it. You're just shooting yourself in the foot, and you're the one who's hurting. "
Luan 'er clenched her fists in anger.
"You little girl, you're always talking too much. Walls have ears, how many times have I told you?"
Ji Yunshu reprimanded her, but she knew in her heart that Luan 'er was doing it for her own good.
Luan 'er lowered her head, feeling wronged.
Ever since she took over this body, Ji Yunshu's temperament had more or less inherited the original's elegance. She was gentle, weak, and not frivolous.
She was also tired of scheming and deceit, so she wouldn't quarrel if she could endure it.
Perhaps it was because of the rebellious nature of humans, but the more she obeyed, the more the young masters in the mansion liked to cause trouble for her. A small matter every three days, and a big matter every half a month.
She was as punctual as her period!
Early in the morning.
After Ji Yunshu was punished, Luan 'er helped her up and prepared to return to her courtyard to rest. Just as she entered the west wing, she ran into Ji Muqing.
She wore a snow-white satin purple embroidered gown, and golden embroidered shoes. Her hair was adorned with gold and silver hairpins, and she wore a string of top-grade white pearls around her neck. The bracelets and silver rings on her wrists were also priceless.
Behind him were two domineering girls, Shui 'er and Luo' er.
The eldest daughter of the Ji family, Ji Muqing, had always been like this.
"What's wrong? Did you touch those filthy things again?" His tone was sarcastic, and the corners of his mouth curled into a contemptuous smile.
Ji Yunshu narrowed her eyes and decided to ignore Ji Muqing. She took a step forward, but Ji Muqing grabbed her wrist and ruthlessly squeezed it.
"Impudent! Are you mute?"
Ji Yunshu replied indifferently, "Meimei touched the corpse yesterday, and I haven't washed it yet. Don't you mind?"
"What?" Ji Muqing let go of Ji Yunshu as if he was about to explode. He used a handkerchief to wipe his hands and cursed, "What bad luck, what bad luck. It's so early in the morning and I've been stained with such bad luck."
Seeing this, Luan 'er interrupted, "First Miss, Third Miss knelt all night yesterday. Please don't make things difficult for her …"
* Pa … *
Ji Muqing raised her hand and gave Luan 'er a slap. "How can a lowly servant like you have the right to speak to this miss?" She glared at Ji Yunshu. "It's true that the dog is raised by the owner. Guards, take this lowly servant to the woodshed and teach her a lesson."
She was clearly venting her anger on Luan 'er!
Ji Yunshu was Ji Muqing's sister in name. She could scold her, but she couldn't hit her. But Luan 'er was different. Even if she were to be beaten to death, she was still a servant girl.
A few taels for one was a lot!
Shui 'er and Luo' er, who were behind Ji Muqing, received their master's order to drag Luan 'er away.
It was fine for Ji Yunshu to be angry at herself, but she couldn't take it out on Luan 'er. She intentionally shielded Luan' er behind her and raised her eyebrows to look at Ji Muqing.
That glance made Ji Muqing's whole body quiver.
"Big Sister, don't get angry so early in the morning. Don't hurt your body. How about we just let it go? Later, Little Sister will reprimand Luan 'er."
"This little girl always likes to interrupt others. If word of this gets out, people will think that all the lowly servants of my Ji family are filthy. Today, I must teach her a lesson."
In other words, he had categorized Ji Yunshu as a 'filthy' person.
