Chapter 60 The Path of a Maid

Mo Fei took a liking to me, and he put me in a carriage. After many twists and turns, we entered a large mansion deep within the misty willows.

"Have you thought it through? Do you really want to be a lowly maid who does only menial and tiring work all day?" Mo Fei led me to the courtyard, beckoned a maid to bring a chair, sat down leisurely, crossed his legs, and asked me this question with an air of nonchalance.

I secretly regretted that I was too pleasing to his eye; it was a mistake.

I took a deep breath, lowered my eyes, and remained silent. Although I didn't know Mo Fei very well, I knew that people had this wicked trait: the more you don't want something, the more they want to give it to you. In such situations, my best answer was to say nothing.

Mo Fei followed me in silence for a long time. Then he chuckled and said, "Go and fetch Granny Lin."

"Yes," the little maid serving behind him replied and ran off.

Mo Fei suddenly sighed deliberately, "I was going to give you a choice, but I didn't expect you to not cherish it. Sigh..."

I lowered my head, still silent. I treated his words as nothing more than a passing breeze.

A moment later, a slightly plump old woman came to my left, bowed to Mo Fei, and said, "Master."

Mo Fei said, "Take this maid away and teach her manners, then have her clean my courtyard."

I glanced at Granny Lin on my left and noticed that she trembled slightly, a clear sign of shock. But being an experienced woman, she didn't show anything in front of Mo Fei, only respectfully replying, "Yes."

Then Granny Lin turned to me and said gently, "Miss, come with me."

I was taken aback; Granny Lin was quite polite. My intuition told me that as a head maid, she shouldn't be so polite to a maid, but I couldn't quite put my finger on what was wrong.

I glanced at Mo Fei, bowed to him, and then followed Granny Lin out of the courtyard.

☆☆

It took half a day for Granny Lin to explain the rules here. She had me repeat them to her, then, satisfied, led me to collect my bedding and bed, before taking me to the servants' quarters.

Granny Lin pushed open a door to a room and said, "You'll be living here from now on."

I looked around the room and saw four beds. Three of them had bedding, and one was empty (the faint marks of the original bed legs on the floor indicated this empty bed had just been placed there). In the corner was a round, black wooden chamber pot. My breathing became a little unsteady. Having a chamber pot in the room was bad enough, but why wasn't there a curtain to cover it? But then I thought better of it; this was, after all, the maids' room. The maids worked during the day and only returned here at night.

"Go in," Granny Lin said to me.

"Yes." I turned and bowed to Granny Lin, then went into the room and placed the bedding and blankets I was carrying on the bed.

...

☆☆

That evening, the maids who shared a room with me returned. Seeing the extra bed, they frowned in displeasure. They didn't greet me, the three of them chatting and laughing as if I were invisible.

I smiled and lowered my head, not taking it to heart. That's only natural; the three of us were living comfortably, who would want an extra person?

The next morning, as I was still half asleep, someone nudged my shoulder. I frowned, opened my eyes, and in the dim light, saw three people standing beside my bed.

My head was spinning, and it took me a while to realize they were the three maids who were now sharing a room with me.

I quickly got out of bed and greeted them with a smile, "Good morning, three sisters." Actually, they might not be older than me, but since I didn't know their ages, calling them "sisters" was more appropriate. However, it was still early, so why were they up so early? Did they have to work while it was still pitch black?

"We've all taken turns the other day, and today it's your turn to empty the chamber pot."

I was stunned. I just arrived and they want me to empty the chamber pot? Isn't this bullying a bit too obvious?

I sneered. If they get their way today, my days won't be easy from now on.

I sat quietly on the bed, my eyes coldly fixed on them, and smiled, "Yesterday, the three of you took turns emptying the chamber pot; from today onwards, the four of us will take turns." I emphasized the words "the four of us will take turns," and then continued, "Since you've all taken your turns, there's nothing unfair about rearranging the order. ...We are maids of a wealthy family, so everything we do must be done according to rules and regulations. If I empty the chamber pot today, then who will do it tomorrow, and who will do it the day after? We need to make that clear. This will not only save us trouble later, but also prevent the other maids from gossiping that we have no manners. Sisters, don't you agree?"

My words made their faces turn ashen. I just smiled and watched them, waiting for them to speak.

In any group, there's always someone who acts as the "leader" and takes charge; in this room of three, there's also a "leader." Sure enough, the two maids standing to the side couldn't help but look at the one in the middle.

The one in the middle smiled and said, "Sister, what you said is quite right. It's just that we've been busy these days. Sister, you're new here, so there won't be too much to do. Just help us out for a while, and we'll make it up to you later."

I was dumbfounded. I'd seen shameless people before, but never anyone this shameless. Wasn't this just trying to take advantage of me? Make it up to me later? I'd be a fool to believe that.

There really are all kinds of people in this world! But this was truly the first time I'd ever met someone like this. Using such a superficial trick to manipulate me. I wondered if they thought I was too stupid, or if they themselves were?

I shook my head, half-laughing and half-crying. Thinking about it again, I realized these three were actually quite adorable.

I laughed, "I'm new here, and there's so much to learn. I'm rather slow, not as quick to learn as you older sisters. So, although there won't be too many things, it will still be quite strenuous. Please be kind to your younger sister." Suddenly, I covered my mouth and exclaimed, "Ah! I'm so clumsy! I only entered the manor yesterday, and I'm completely unfamiliar with the place. I have no idea where to take the chamber pot, so I'll have to ask you to show me the way."

The maid standing in the middle suddenly changed her expression, "Who needs someone to accompany them to empty the chamber pot? You've already left the house..." "Son, go straight to the right, and after you exit through the side gate, you'll see a stream. Just dump your filth into it."

I sneered. "It's so dark, and I've never walked that path before. If I'm not careful and twist my ankle, spilling the filth from the chamber pot all over the place, we'll all become the laughingstock of everyone else. I don't care about my own embarrassment, but I'm afraid my three older sisters will suffer because of me! So, for the sake of your reputations, for today, tomorrow, and the day after, you sisters will empty the chamber pot. Once I'm more familiar with the layout of this mansion, I'll do it myself."

"You, you..." The three maids were so angry their faces turned ashen.

I lowered my eyes with satisfaction. They were choked up like that? These three girls are quite naive. Dealing with people like them shouldn't be too difficult.

I leaned to the side and took out three beaded flowers I wore myself from my bundle. Each of them took one, and I said with a smile, "We'll be relying on you for the chamber pots today, tomorrow, and the day after." You have to say the right thing to the right person. These three maids weren't very experienced; if I said anything too profound, it would be ridiculous.

After they took my beaded flowers, their eyes were glued to them.

A moment later, they finally looked up at me and saw me smiling at them. They blushed with embarrassment. But as the saying goes, "He who eats another's food is bound to be obliging," and they were no longer arrogant. In just a few seconds, they seemed like completely different people, their transformation so quick it amazed me.

"What's your name, little sister?" asked the maid in the middle.

I replied, "My name is Xiao Shu. And what about you three sisters?"

"My name is Qing Xue," said the maid in the middle.

"My name is Qing Hong," said the maid on the left.

“My name is Qingxia,” said the maid standing on the right.

I smiled and asked, “Why do you all have the character ‘Qing’ in your names?”

Qingxue replied, “These aren’t our original names; Lin Mama gave them to us.”

I said, “Oh, I see. Then I’ll have a new name too.”

Qingxia said, “Lin Mama changed our names when we came in. Xiaoshu’s name wasn’t changed, probably because Lin Mama was very satisfied and didn’t want to change it.”

I nodded, indicating that I understood.

Qinghong asked, “Xiaoshu, your beaded flowers are really beautiful. Did you make them yourself?”

I smiled and nodded, replying, “Yes.”

Qingxue continued, “Can you teach us how to make them in the future?”

It seemed that their attitude had completely changed because they wanted to learn a craft from me. I smiled and said, “Of course. But we’ll have to wait a while, until I’m familiar with the environment of the mansion, before I teach you. Is that alright?”

Qingxue smiled so broadly that her eyes disappeared. “Then it’s settled.”

“Okay,” I replied with a smile.

Qingxue said again, "Let me empty the chamber pot today, Qinghong tomorrow, and Qingxia the day after." Qingxue only mentioned the day after tomorrow, without saying who would be on her turn the day after that, her intention to curry favor was obvious. (Advertisement break: Still relying on your hands?

) Qingxue spoke up, and Qinghong and Qingxia quickly nodded in agreement.

"Thank you, three sisters," I said with a smile.

Chapter 061: Keeping to One's Duty .

I originally thought sweeping would be an easy job, but after a few days, I was so tired that my back ached, my legs cramped.

I let out a long sigh, gritting my teeth and restraining myself. I kept telling myself that if the other maids could endure the hardship, I could too.

"Xiao Shu, summer clothes have arrived at the front yard. Let's go see them together," Qingxue said quietly, running over and grabbing my arm.

"Made-to-order clothes?" I asked.

Qingxue nodded and said, "Yes, the manor makes made-to-order clothes every year."

Every year? My heart skipped a beat. This was crucial information. I had thought this manor was sold after the imperial court destroyed Guiyue Valley, but it turned out not.

I turned to look at her and asked with a smile, "Qingxue, how many years have you been in the manor?"

Qingxue replied, "I entered the manor when I was thirteen, so it's been five years now."

I narrowed my eyes. It seemed Yu Mu was a cunning man with multiple burrows. Besides Guiyue Valley's lair, he had other hideouts. No wonder even such a powerful imperial court couldn't completely destroy him.

At this moment, there was a commotion in the courtyard. I looked up and saw all the maids running out, even the head maid who rarely left her room.

"Qingxue, why is everyone running out? What if Master comes back?" I asked curiously.

“Master is always so busy at this time of year, he has no time to come back to the courtyard. Xiao Shu, let’s go too.” Qingxue said, pulling my arm and leading me out of the courtyard.

“Qingxue, I’m a little dizzy today, I want to finish my work early and rest, so I won’t go. Thank you for your kindness.” It’s best to stay within my bounds; if something goes wrong, there won’t even be time to cry.

Qingxue placed her hand on my forehead to check my temperature, saying, “Luckily, you don’t have a fever. We servants can’t afford to get sick.”

I smiled, quietly lowered my head, and didn’t say anything.

“Then I’ll go see him.”

“Okay.” I nodded.

☆☆

It was almost noon, and the sun was getting hotter and hotter. I was sweating profusely and felt terribly uncomfortable.

As I was resting my knees, feeling dizzy, the door creaked open. I looked up and saw Mo Fei stride into the room.

Strange, why is Mo Fei back in the courtyard at this time? Usually, Mo Fei would be out working by this time, but today was quite unusual…

“Someone, bring tea!” I heard Mo Fei calling for tea from inside the room.

I only glanced inside before lowering my head to continue sweeping.

“Where is everyone? Bring tea!!” Mo Fei’s voice called for tea again from inside.

I looked up again and suddenly remembered that the maids inside had all gone out to check on Xia Shang.

“Bring tea! Did you hear me!” Mo Fei’s voice was angry this time.

I pursed my lips and lowered my head to continue sweeping. I told myself not to meddle in other people’s business. After all, I was just a lowly maid; the work inside wasn’t my concern. I just needed to do my own job.

“Xiao Shu!” Mo Fei came out of the room with a dark face.

“Master.” Seeing him rushing towards me angrily, I quickly gave him a curtsy.

"I called for tea from inside, making such a loud noise, and you, as a maid in my courtyard, didn't even come in to pour me some!"

"Master, you're wrong about that. One must be mindful of one's place. The inner chambers are not a place for a lowly maid like me. Serving tea and water to one's master is such a respectable and noble task, not something a lowly maid should do." Knowing Mo Fei's temperament, I treated him quite casually.

Mo Fei's eyes widened, looking as if he'd choked on his words. After a few seconds, he burst out laughing. Then he narrowed his peach blossom eyes, staring intently at my face, and said, "In your heart, serving tea and water to your master is a respectable and noble job? Hmm... I'm a good master. Since you see this job as so noble, then I'll give you some respect and promote you to a first-class maid. How about that?" His peach blossom eyes always carried a smile; needless to say, he was a man of hidden depths and a playful nature.

I smiled and said, "I thank you, Master." If I showed displeasure at this moment, that would please him.

"..." Mo Fei's eyes widened again, his narrowed eyes scrutinizing me from head to toe. "I thought you would refuse."

I chuckled. "Master is joking. A first-class maid not only has a better monthly salary than a third-class maid, but her food, lodging, and clothing are also a little better. I'd be overjoyed; how could I refuse?" It seemed Mo Fei already had a rough assessment of me.

Mo Fei narrowed his peach blossom eyes and curled the corners of his mouth, beckoning me with a finger and saying, "Then come in and pour me some tea."

"Yes." I curtsied to him.

☆☆

I poured Mo Fei a cup of tea, and he picked it up, crossed his legs, and leisurely sipped his tea.

"Where have all the maids in the courtyard gone? Why are you the only one left?" Mo Fei asked me.

I lowered my head and said, "You can ask them when they return." If I answered Mo Fei that I didn't know, then I would be lying to him. A strong man can never be lied to, so I changed my approach.

Mo Fei raised an eyebrow, "What, you don't want to betray them?"

I was taken aback; Mo Fei was really perceptive. I said, "Xiao Shu only knows how to keep to her duty."

"..."

Mo Fei remained silent for a long time afterward. I slightly raised my eyes and met Mo Fei's appraising gaze, which was both satisfied and curious. A chill ran through me, and a cold shiver ran through the soles of my feet, making me feel weak in the knees. Good heavens! What kind of look was that? I hated that look in his eyes, absolutely hated it.

☆☆

A long time later, the two head maids who had gone out returned. Seeing Mo Fei sitting in the chair, they were so frightened that they knelt on the ground, their faces pale.

"Where did you go?" Mo Fei picked up the tea I had poured for him and took a sip.

One of the maids said in a barely audible voice, "We went to see Xia Chang."

"It seems I've been too good to you all. You've forgotten what 'a maid's duty' means." After saying this, Mo Fei glanced at me. My expression remained indifferent, and I lowered my eyes, avoiding his gaze.

"Of everyone in the entire courtyard, I'm afraid only Xiao Shu is truly dutiful and considerate."

My heart skipped a beat, and I suddenly glared at Mo Fei. Wasn't he making an enemy of me?

Mo Fei raised an eyebrow, then turned his head away and said, "Su Xin, go and call Granny Lin."

"Yes." The maid named Su Xin quickly got up and ran out of the courtyard.

☆☆

A short while later, Granny Lin arrived. Granny Lin knelt at Mo Fei's feet.

"This old servant has not taught them well, please punish me, Master," Granny Lin said.

Mo Fei waved his hand and said, "Get up, it's not that you haven't taught them well, but that these maids in the courtyard are too hateful." Mo Fei paused, then added, "But luckily I have my thoughtful Xiao Shu, otherwise I would have had to pour my own tea today."

I gritted my teeth inwardly; Mo Fei was determined to make enemies for me.

Then Mo Fei continued, “Logically speaking, I absolutely cannot use such despicable maids anymore. However, considering that Su Xin and Su Lan have served me for so long, they will be demoted to second-class maids, and Xiao Shu will fill the position of first-class head maid. The other maids will be punished with six months' imprisonment as a warning. If they offend again, they will be sold off.”

“Yes,” Granny Lin said. “Master, what about the other first-class maid…”

Granny Lin was interrupted by Mo Fei before she could finish speaking. “Alright, you can all leave. I only need Xiao Shu.”

Hearing this, I almost choked on my own saliva. If this got out, it wouldn’t be as simple as “making enemies.”

“Yes.” After everyone in the room had left, I stood quietly, not saying a word. The atmosphere was heavy.

Mo Fei narrowed his peach blossom eyes and smiled, “Why don’t you ask me why I did this?”

I stared at Mo Fei, pursed my lips, and refused to speak.

Mo Fei smiled, "You're smart, you know you can't lie to me. But what I want isn't honesty from those around me, it's loyalty. I was just thinking, maybe only by completely isolating you can you remain wholeheartedly loyal to me."

I smiled coldly and said, "Master, you should be careful not to go too far."

Mo Fei was taken aback, then laughed and said, "Thank you for the reminder, Xiao Shu, I will know my limits."

This Mo Fei is either incredibly bored, or he already has some feelings for me. Thinking of this, I couldn't help but feel irritated. This feeling was a bit like a fly buzzing around my ear...

Chapter 062 Killing the Chicken to Scare the Monkey

Because Mo Fei was often out working, he only spent time in the courtyard in the morning and evening. So being a first-class maid in his courtyard was quite an easy job.

"Su Xin, go to the storeroom and get some incense." The incense in the room was used up and needed to be replenished.

"Okay, I'll go right away." Su Xin replied and went out.

A moment later, Suxin returned. I took the spices from her and smelled them, then looked up and asked, "Why isn't this the kind Master uses?"

"Miss Xiaoshu, you only asked me to bring some spices, not the kind Master uses," Suxin replied.

I narrowed my eyes and said, "When I asked you to get spices, it was for Master, not for you! These maids, seemingly diligent, are always making things difficult for me."

Suxin sneered, "It's clearly Miss Xiaoshu who didn't explain herself clearly, so why are you blaming me now?"

I glanced at her; at this point, I didn't even want to talk to her. I said directly, "Go and do your work."

"Suxin takes her leave," Suxin snorted and left triumphantly.

I sighed deeply, feeling a bit suffocated. Rising too quickly naturally attracts jealousy and resentment; that's human nature, and I wasn't surprised. However, if this continues, the other maids will think I'm a pushover, someone they can bully at will. Then I might not be able to get them to do anything.

After all, life goes on. What kind of situation is it if a head maid can't command her subordinates?

It seems I must find a solution quickly.

☆☆

That evening, Mo Fei returned.

Knowing he loves tea, I poured him a cup and brought it to him as soon as he came home.

Mo Fei took the cup, took a sip, and chuckled, "You're quite clever."

"Thank you for the compliment, Master," I accepted without a hint of modesty, then added with a smile, "As a reward for my cleverness, could you grant me some dignity?"

Mo Fei paused, then blinked his charming eyes and asked earnestly, "Oh, what kind of dignity do you want?"

I replied, "The power to replace the maids."

Mo Fei stared into my eyes, a slight smile playing on his lips, and said, "Your ambition is quite considerable."

I met his gaze and said, "Master, you misunderstand. It's not that I have any ambition, it's just that I can't control certain people, so I have to replace them." I spoke the truth, without embellishment or concealment.

He gave a soft "Oh," and asked casually, "You can't control them?"

Was he implying I was incompetent?

I smiled calmly, not annoyed, and spoke the truth again, "A promotion that comes too fast will naturally cause dissatisfaction. I don't need to be surprised by such things."

Mo Fei looked at me for a long time, then chuckled, narrowed his peach blossom eyes, and said, "You're so convenient. If you can't get rid of them, just replace them."

I blinked and replied, "Xiao Shu is too stupid to think of any other solution."

Mo Fei put down his teacup, crossed his legs again, tapped the table with his fingers while glancing sideways at it, and without asking me anything, simply granted my request, "I'm giving you authority. Do whatever you want."

I lowered my head and said, "Thank you, Master."

☆☆

With Mo Fei's permission, I immediately began to act.

"Qingxia, please invite Granny Lin here for me," I said.

"Yes, Sister Xiaoshu," Qingxia replied.

"Qingxue, please gather all the maids in the courtyard for me."

"Yes, Sister Xiaoshu," Qingxue replied.

I smiled helplessly. Originally, I was the one calling them "Sister," but since I was promoted to head maid, they've started calling me "Sister."

...

In a short while, Qingxue gathered the second-class and third-class maids and brought them to me. I sat upright in the chair, took the tea from Qinghong's hand, and sipped it slowly.

After a while, Qingxia led the way into the courtyard, followed by Granny Lin and several burly old women. I smiled faintly, secretly praising Qingxia for her competence.

"Little Shu," Granny Lin said, becoming increasingly polite to me.

I stood up and smiled, "Granny Lin, thank you for making this special trip. You've had a hard time."

“Miss Xiaoshu, you’re too kind. Please feel

free to ask for my help.” I said, “Granny Lin, you’re really too kind. How can I use the word ‘assign’ to you? I invited you here today because there’s something I need your help with.”

Granny Lin smiled and said, “Please speak, Miss Xiaoshu.”

I pointed to Suxin and Sulan, who were standing among the second-class maids, and said calmly, “Please ask Granny to assign Suxin and Sulan to work in another courtyard. Also, please help me select three more maids for menial tasks.” Although I knew that sending them out of this courtyard without selling them to a broker would leave me with future troubles, I was really soft-hearted. After all, they were poor children from poor families, and I couldn’t bring myself to do something that could ruin their lives (if they were sold to another household by a broker to work as maids, that would be a good outcome, but if they were sold to a brothel, their lives would be ruined).

Granny Lin said, "Alright, I'll go take care of it right away."

Su Xin and Su Lan turned pale upon hearing this. Su Lan cried out, "No, I don't want to work in another courtyard! I want to see Master! I want to see Master!"

Su Xin yelled at me, "You wretched woman! What are you! What right do you have to assign us tasks!"

I glanced at them, pursed my lips, and turned cold.

At this moment, Granny Lin timely shouted, "You two are truly troublesome. If you keep making a fuss, I'll just sell you off."

Granny Lin's words worked immediately; Su Xin and Su Lan stopped their shrill crying. Su Xin ran to Granny Lin, knelt down with a thud, and tugged at Granny Lin's sleeve, sobbing softly, "Granny Lin, you have to help us! We haven't done anything wrong, why should that woman send us to another courtyard? Master must be kept in the dark about this. Granny, you have to help us!"

Granny Lin pursed her lips and gave a wink to several burly women beside her. Four of them split into two groups, pulling her away on either side.

Granny Lin smiled at me and said, "I'll go choose two good maids and bring them to Miss Xiao Shu in a little while."

I smiled and bowed to Granny Lin, saying, "Thank you for your hard work, Granny."

Granny Lin returned my bow with a smile and turned to leave the courtyard.

☆☆

The sudden dismissal of two former head maids from Mo Fei's household shocked everyone, turning their faces pale.

I leisurely sat back down in my chair, glanced around at the silent maids, and said calmly, "Qingxue, Qinghong, and Qingxia are promoted to second-class maids from today onwards. The original second-class maids..." I paused deliberately, feigning thought.

"Please have mercy, Miss! We will definitely work harder from now on!" The four second-class maids knelt down with a thud.

I nodded in satisfaction, looked up at them, and said, "It's good that you know your mistakes and can correct them. I hope you can learn from this lesson and do the duties of third-class maids." With one sentence, I demoted the original second-class maids to third-class.

As soon as I finished speaking, the four second-class maids trembled, their faces turning pale.

I sighed softly, waved my hand, and said, "Qingxue, Qinghong, and Qingxia, stay here. The rest of you, go and do your own work."

"Yes," the maids responded and withdrew.

After the maids left, Qingxue, Qinghong, and Qingxia bowed to me in unison and said, "Thank you for your promotion, Sister Xiaoshu."

I looked at them and asked with a smile, "Qingxue, Qinghong, Qingxia, do you understand why I promoted you to second-class maids?"

Qingxue smiled and said, "Naturally, it's because Sister Xiaoshu and we have a good relationship."

I nodded and said, "It's good that you understand." After a pause, I continued, "Although I've promoted you, whether you can hold onto your second-class maid positions for long depends on your own abilities and skills... If you don't perform well, even if you are my good sisters, I will replace you. Do you understand?"

"Qingxue understands."

"Qinghong understands."

"Qingxia understands."

I nodded in satisfaction again and said, "Alright, now go find the original second-class maids and hand over your duties."

They looked hesitant after hearing my words. It was understandable; those four maids were already suffering from being demoted from second-class to third-class, and it would be too cruel for me to make Qingxue, Qinghong, and Qingxia hand over their duties as well. However, I wanted to force them to learn a lesson so I could manage them better in the future.

I raised an eyebrow and asked, "Do you have any questions?"

"No, Sister Xiaoshu, we'll go right now." Qingxue, Qinghong, and Qingxia said, turning to find the original four maids.

Seeing them leave, I stood up and lazily stretched. I leisurely turned and went into the room, sat on the couch by the window, poured myself a cup of tea, and while away the time.

I sent Su Xin and Su Lan away, partly as a warning to others, but mainly because I felt Mo Fei's gaze towards me was becoming increasingly strange. I felt very uncomfortable and wanted to do something to disrupt it.

I picked up my teacup, took a small sip, and thought the tea tasted quite good today.

Doing this today should make Mo Fei dissatisfied with me, thus reducing his goodwill towards me.

Chapter 063 Love for One Person

Plot Extra 1

☆☆

Although it was summer, a cool breeze blew under the towering trees, making it very comfortable.

Yu Mu sat in a wheelchair, his legs wide open, his robe pulled to one side, and his trousers half-down. A woman knelt between his legs, licking something on Yu Mu's genitals with a "smack, smack" sound.

"Master, Mo Fei has arrived." A person at the courtyard gate transmitted his voice with internal force.

Yu Mu looked up and saw that he had a compassionate appearance, like a Buddha or an immortal.

He curled the corners of his lips into a slight smile, his eyes shimmering with tears. "Let him in."

"Yes," the man replied.

A moment later, Mo Fei stepped inside, walked to the base of a large, shadowy tree, knelt on one knee, and said, "Greetings to my master."

Yu Mu smiled and said, "Get up."

After paying his respects, Mo Fei stood awkwardly to the side, his lips trembling several times as if he had something to say, but he couldn't bring himself to say it.

Yu Mu shook her head and said, "Mo Fei, just say what you have to say."

Mo Fei took a deep breath and said, "Master, I want to get married."

"Hmm..." The woman kneeling between Yu Mu's legs seemed to choke on something. She quickly spat out the penis she was holding in her mouth and exclaimed in surprise, "Mo Fei, what did you just say?!"

Mo Fei smiled, his peach blossom eyes narrowing. "Zhi Yuan, congratulate me, I'm getting married."

Yu Mu leaned back in her wheelchair, her dark eyes glancing casually at Mo Fei, and asked with a smile, "Why did you suddenly have this thought?"

Mo Fei smiled brightly and said, "Reporting to my master, there's no reason, I just suddenly thought of it."

Yu Mu lowered her eyes and lifted her clothes to cover his exposed penis. Without raising her eyes, she asked softly, "Who is the girl you're marrying?"

Mo Fei narrowed his peach blossom eyes and said with a smile, "She's the only head maid in my courtyard, her name is Xiao Shu."

Zhi Yuan teased, "The only head maid? Mo Fei, you say that so sweetly."

Mo Fei blushed and lowered his head.

"Ah!" Zhiyuan seemed to suddenly remember something, cried out, then widened her eyes and said, "The 'Xiao Shu' you mentioned, is that the maid who kicked both of your head maids out of the courtyard and replaced all four of your original second-class maids?!"

Mo Fei sneered, "You seem to know a lot about what's going on in my courtyard."

Zhiyuan waved her hand and said, "Mo Fei, you're wronging me. Probably no one in our manor doesn't know about this. A while ago, everyone was watching with bated breath, waiting to see how you would deal with her, but you haven't made a move. Now everyone's betting on how long it will take you to deal with this arrogant woman."

Mo Fei stroked his chin, narrowed his peach blossom eyes, and smiled, "Oh? Well, this result will surely satisfy all of you who are bored to death." "Everyone's scared to death."

Zhiyuan frowned. "This outcome will indeed scare us to death. You actually said you wanted to marry such a snobbish and scheming woman?! Is this summer going to turn into winter?"

Mo Fei's eyes turned cold. "Don't talk nonsense about her. She's a good girl." As he spoke, Mo Fei's gaze became distant, and his eyes softened. "She's really special. Even with her disfigured face, she still has a smiling face; when she talks to me, she looks quietly into my eyes; she never tells me lies... Sometimes she doesn't have to do anything or say anything. As long as she stands quietly in front of me, I'll be mesmerized..."

Zhiyuan curled her lips and said coldly, "I think you've gone mad!"

Yu Mu raised her eyes and asked, "Mo Fei, is the Xiao Shu you're talking about the girl who was disfigured and sent out of the courtyard by Granny Zhu?"

"That's her." Mo Fei replied.

Yu Mu lowered her eyes and thought for a moment, then said, "Mo Fei, send her to me tomorrow. If she's really a good girl, then it's your choice."

"Master..." Mo Fei's face flushed red and then turned pale.

Yu Mu glanced at him and asked with a smile, "What, you don't believe she's a good girl?"

"No..."

Mo Fei was about to say something, but Yu Mu interrupted him, "Since you believe her, then it's settled. Alright, I'm tired, you can leave."

Mo Fei pouted aggrievedly and replied, "Yes, Master."

After Mo Fei left, Zhi Yuan knelt between Yu Mu's legs again, lifted her robe, pinched the still-erect penis, kissed it, and asked softly, "Master, do you really want to personally examine the woman Mo Fei has taken a liking to?"

Yu Mu cupped her face, inserted his penis into her mouth, sighed comfortably, and closed his mouth. He opened his eyes, nodded, and said, "If it were any other woman, I wouldn't care so much. But the woman Mo Fei has taken a liking to is a bit special. She's currently the only one who was accidentally disfigured during training and became a useless pawn. After that kind of training and education, a woman's soul probably doesn't have the purity it once had. A beauty's den, a hero's grave. If she's a good person, then so be it, but otherwise... Mo Fei is my brother who's been through thick and thin with me, I can't afford to lose him." Yu Mu opened his eyes, his gaze sharp as he looked into the distance.

Chapter 064 Like a Dream

I was stunned, my body stiffening. I'd finally managed to gain a foothold here, and now I had to move?

I asked Mo Fei blankly, "Why?"

Mo Fei hurriedly waved his hands nervously and said, "Don't misunderstand! I didn't mean to abandon you. It's just..." He paused.

"I understand." I nodded, didn't exchange any more pleasantries with him, and turned to walk away woodenly.

...

Humans are strange creatures. They don't feel anything when things happen, but as time goes on, they feel increasingly lonely and insignificant.

Thinking back on the past ten-odd years since I transmigrated to this world, I first had my mother's love, then my brother's protection, and later my father's attention...

I've never felt so helpless... like a piece of merchandise, tossed around. It turns out

that without my mother, brother, and father, I'm nothing...

The more I thought about it, the more blurred my vision became, a white blur, unable to see anything clearly.

Before leaving my father and brother, I knew that being born a woman in ancient times, separated from parents and brothers, and surviving alone would be difficult. But I never imagined it would be this difficult!

Fate is like duckweed on water, its rise and fall beyond our control.

...

There are some people in this world who always like to hide their sorrow in their hearts, forcing themselves not to shed tears, not to grieve. But when the pain reaches a certain point, it's like a river bursting its banks; the consequences are beyond what my fragile heart can bear…

“Waaah…”

To avoid getting involved in Yu Mu’s inexplicable schemes, I even ruined my appearance, the most important thing for a woman.

“Waaah…”

To gain a foothold in Mo Fei’s courtyard, I did everything I would have previously disdained to do.

“Waaah…”

I thought everything would finally go smoothly, but now Mo Fei is sending me to Yu Mu’s courtyard again.

“Waaah…”

This time it’s Yu Mu’s courtyard, but what about next time? Where will I be taken next time?

“Waaah…”

My body went limp and I knelt on the ground, biting my handkerchief, sobbing softly. I don’t know why I’m crying like this, but I just can’t control myself.

Suddenly, my door was pushed open, and I turned around sharply. I saw Mo Fei standing in the center of the doorway, his body bathed in white light.

He slowly walked in and slowly knelt down in front of me.

"Why are you crying?" Mo Fei gently cupped my face with tenderness, his fingers softly wiping away the tears streaming down my cheeks.

I quickly turned my head away, avoiding his fingers.

Mo Fei's hand awkwardly froze in mid-air, not retracting for a long time. His peach blossom eyes dimmed and deepened at that moment. "Believe me, I have no choice but to send you to the master... I will bring you back in a while."

I looked at him indifferently, as if I hadn't heard what he said.

"You..." Mo Fei hesitated, then stopped. After a long silence, he clenched his fists, as if making a firm decision, and said resolutely, "If you don't want to, I won't let you go to the master. I'll go tell the master right now!" He then turned to leave.

"Wait." I stood up and called to him, stopping him from leaving.

Mo Fei immediately turned around to face me.

I stared at him intently and said, "Are you absolutely certain, Master?"

"...?" Mo Fei looked puzzled.

I said again, "Are you absolutely certain that you can get your master to retract his order?" I wasn't a brainless fool. Although I didn't yet know why Yu Mu wanted me to go to his place, I knew that without a special reason, Yu Mu wouldn't ask his trusted subordinate for a lowly maid. And this 'special reason' was absolutely crucial to Yu Mu.

"I..." Mo Fei hesitated, stammering for a long time without uttering a complete sentence.

I smiled and said, "If you're not absolutely certain, please don't bother me." I paused, feeling that since things had come to this point, there was no need to hold back anymore. "Otherwise, in the end, not only will you not be able to help me, but you'll also make my life very difficult over there."

Mo Fei stood there, staring at me without moving. After a long while, he said hoarsely, "Don't worry, I'll come to see you often."

The hidden meaning in Mo Fei's words was: he wouldn't let anyone bully me.

At this moment, I was a little stunned, a little bewildered, a little astonished, and a little enlightened. This man, he really did...

I frowned inwardly, choosing to continue pretending, acting as if I knew nothing.

☆☆

Sadness can only be temporary, because life must go on. Sadness is a day, happiness is also a day, I choose to spend each day happily...

The next morning, the head maid of Yu Mu's courtyard came to pick me up personally.

Along the way, I don't know how many pavilions, towers, small bridges, and streams we passed. Everywhere I looked was breathtakingly magnificent, as if I had stepped into a royal garden once more.

Yu Mu's ambition was truly grand! To build her residence so imposingly. This... on one hand, showed that this man had considerable ambition; on the other hand, it showed that this man was extremely wealthy.

"Miss, I can only escort you this far." The head maid leading the way suddenly stopped.

I frowned. How could a newly arrived maid be allowed to see her 'master' alone without an introduction from the head maid? This was clearly a deliberate attempt to make things difficult for me.

I raised an eyebrow, glanced at the head maid, and smiled, "Xiao Shu thanks you for leading the way, Granny."

Hearing this, the head maid was taken aback, but she quickly regained her composure, greeting me with a smile, "Please, Miss."

I curtsied to her and turned to walk towards the 'palace' ahead.

Yes, standing before me was indeed a magnificent palace.

Outside the hall, the trees were lush and verdant, with red flowers and green grass, all neatly arranged as if man-made.

Passing through elegant bamboo groves, over a white jade railing, and up jade steps, I arrived at the main hall's porch. The hall's doors were about five meters high and three meters wide, with shimmering pearls hanging from them, reaching to the ground. Inside, maids, seeing me approach, quickly lifted the beaded curtains on either side, bowing to greet me with sweet smiles, "Miss Xiao Shu, please."

I was startled, my heart pounding. Why were they so polite to a new maid?!

My heart sank, then I tensed, for this was completely different from what I had expected.

I lowered my eyes, concealing my emotions, and returned the greeting with a curt smile, entering the room. Looking up, I saw golden hooks holding up the flowing silk curtains, light as white clouds in the sky. The air was fragrant and pleasant.

Seeing the man sitting in a wheelchair in the center of the main hall, I was taken aback. How could Yu Mu be sitting on…

his lap…?

But the situation didn't allow me to think too much. I lowered my eyes, walked gracefully forward, knelt down, and said, “This servant, Xiao Shu, greets Master.”

“Get up.”

The voice was soft and ethereal, as if one could see a celestial mountain and the bright moon. I was shocked. Was this Yu Mu's voice? In my memory, Yu Mu's voice was cold and indifferent, without any pause or fluctuation.

“Thank you, Master.” I responded softly and quickly got up from the ground.

The voice rose again, melodious and clear, “Raise your head and let me see you.”

“Yes.” I responded softly and slowly raised my head, my eyes looking at Yu Mu's face. He still had a compassionate look in his eyes, like a Buddha or an immortal, without the slightest change from the face I had seen years ago.

He stared intently at me, a slight smile playing on his lips, his eyes shimmering even more. "Apart from the freckles on your forehead, you are indeed quite beautiful." He paused, then added, "You were a first-class maidservant with Mo Fei, and you'll still be a first-class maidservant here, won't you?"

I curtsied and said, "This servant thanks Your Majesty for your kindness."

Yu Mu nodded, then turned to a tall, beautiful woman beside him, as ethereal as a moon goddess, and said, "Take her away and teach her the rules."

"Yes." The beautiful woman curtsied to Yu Mu, then gracefully approached me, bowing slightly, and said, "Miss Xiao Shu, please come with me."

Hearing this, I felt a chill run down my spine. Judging from her attire, she was a hundred times more refined than a proper young lady of high birth, clearly Yu Mu's head maidservant. Why would someone like her treat me, a 'lowly maidservant,' with such courtesy?

I forced a smile and quickly adopted a flattered expression, saying, "Yes."
