The world is a bitter sea, and people struggle within it.
Is genuine sincerity always belittled? Are kindness and gentleness always bullied? Are ugly commoners always mocked? Is unparalleled ...
Chapter 748: The Bride-to-be vs. the Black-hearted Maid (1)
"Miss Kang, our young master fell into the water yesterday and hasn't woken up yet. You should go to the hall to rest and don't disturb him here." Cui'er, the little maid who had been punished by Kang Shiyi, said something in a gloomy way.
"I am my cousin's wife-to-be. I should have come to visit my cousin when he fell into the water. You, a maid, actually want to put me in an unkind and unjust position. What is your intention! Guo'er, slap me in the face!" Shiyi didn't even look at her. He pushed open the door with his bare hands and walked straight to Gu Sanmeng's bed. Following closely behind her was Meng Dong'er, the maid who had always served Gu Sanmeng. No one noticed that Meng Dong'er's steps were much more steady than usual.
"Cousin, are you okay?" Shiyi held the hand of the man on the bed, her almond eyes full of worry.
She came to visit the patient today, so she was dressed simply, with only a blue and jadeite gold hairpin hanging on her head. Although she is young, she has a face like a lotus, and her delicate features are made more gentle by her small nose and mouth. There is a delicate beauty in her every frown and smile
. Meng Dong'er looked over from her angle and found that Miss Kang's appearance was much better than before.
The man on the bed was thin and frail, with eyes closed on his moon-like face. His long eyelashes cast a faint shadow on his eyes. His deep nose and pale lips added a bit of romance.
"Miss Kang, you go back first. When the young master wakes up, we will send someone to inform you." Meng Dong'er walked to her side and wanted to help her up.
Shi Yi pushed her away and shouted, "When did you have to take care of the matter between my cousin and me!"
Meng Dong'er was stunned.
She didn't know where Miss Kang's malice towards her came from!
Shi Yi was even more angry when he saw her ignorant look. "My cousin always likes to be quiet, and only you are allowed to serve him. Not to mention that my cousin never likes water, how could he go to the pond alone? Just say that my cousin has not woken up since he fell into the water, but you are fine. Do you think it is reasonable? It is your dereliction of duty that you did not take good care of your cousin!"
Meng Dong'er lowered her eyes, retreated to the corner, and hid her thoughtful expression.
The question she mentioned was something he had never thought about seriously. He usually didn't like to get close to water. Yesterday, the maid Meng Dong'er said several times that the lotus in the pond was blooming very well, and he suddenly became interested and went to the pond. After waking up, he saw that his skin was replaced by Meng Dong'er's. And the body lying on the bed was not his own, but someone else's.
Shi Yi held his cousin's hand and cried for a long time before leaving.
The childhood sweetheart, the cousin who was already engaged, suddenly exchanged souls with his maid, and the two of them fought and finally became a couple. And her bride-to-be was publicly annulled and eventually died of depression. She would not allow such a thing to happen.
She had just stabbed a thorn in Gu Sanmeng's heart.
Isn't the heroine charming and lovely? With the help of God, let's see if God will always bless her to win Gu Sanmeng's heart.
Less than half an incense stick of time after Shi Yi left, Meng Dong'er woke up slowly on the bed.
She opened her eyes and saw her body looking at her, but the eyes on her body were much calmer and deeper than her own, exactly the same as the young master she had served since she was a child.
Unexpectedly, she did not scream. Little did she know that her actions, in the eyes of the real Gu Sanmeng, had another meaning: she knew about the soul swap.
"Who are you?" Meng Dong'er was not sure.
She vaguely remembered that she had made a wish to exchange identities with the young master so that the young master would understand her difficult situation. But she never thought that God would fulfill her wish so soon.
"Meng Dong'er, what are you doing!" Gu Sanmeng was a little collapsed. He had a healthy body, but a woman suddenly moved into it. This woman was the maid who had served him since childhood. And he actually parasitized in the body of the maid who had served him since childhood. If he hadn't experienced it himself, he would have thought it was nonsense.
"Master, I don't know either. You were the one I saw when I woke up." Meng Dong'er pursed her lips pitifully. Of course, she couldn't tell the master the truth. Otherwise, the master would have beaten her to death!
Gu Sanmeng couldn't help but hold his forehead when he saw that his body had made movements that only women would. What kind of suffering is he suffering now!
"You really don't know what happened?" He looked at Meng Dong'er doubtfully and confirmed with her again.
When he woke up, he was devastated to see that he was parasitic in the body of the maid. But he thought that such a weird thing must not be known by others. Besides, he was not sure if this was a conspiracy by others to deal with his Gu family. So he imitated Meng Dong'er's usual way of doing things, so that he didn't reveal the truth.
"Master, Dong'er was like this when she woke up. I really don't know what happened." Meng Dong'er bit her lips habitually. For some reason, seeing the young master's frustrated look, she felt a little satisfied.
Now, she became the "young master" and the young master became "her", so she could order the young master around openly. No, she couldn't order the young master around, she had to treat the young master well and pamper him.
In this way, even if their bodies were suddenly switched back one day, others would still treat her as the young master's favorite.
Seeing his body being ruined by her like this, Gu Sanmeng lamented in his heart, and just wanted to find someone to switch their bodies back as soon as possible. He said solemnly, "Before we switch our bodies back, you listen to me in everything."
"Okay." Meng Dong'er didn't want to make him unhappy.
"My cousin just came to see you. She doesn't know that you've woken up yet. I'm going to Kang Mansion to report the news now." Gu Sanmeng took off the long hairpin with a chain hanging on his head and placed it on the table. Although he accepted the fact that he had changed his body, he still couldn't accept himself dressed like a woman. He also couldn't figure out why Meng Dong'er always wore a hairpin with such a long chain, which was so inconvenient for her to move.
Meng Dong'er grabbed "her" hand and said with concern: "Master, your cousin has never liked the maids around you. If you go alone, she will definitely punish you."
"This is a matter between my cousin and me, you don't have to worry about it." Gu Sanmeng thought of Shi Yi who was worried about him before, and didn't give her a good face. He said coldly, "Just continue to lie here. I will report to the old lady and mother when I go out, saying that you still have a headache and need to stay in bed. If they come to talk to you, just shout and don't say anything."
"Master, I'm scared. I have no experience in dealing with the old lady and the lady." Meng Dong'er hung half of her body on "her".
"Grandson, what are you doing! Are you trying to commit adultery in broad daylight!" The old lady with a dragon-headed cane came in and saw her beloved grandson tugging at the sleeve of the maid and looking dependent, and she was furious!
