The Daily Life of Consort Chun Winning by Lying Down: Qing Dynasty Transmigration

Transmigrated to become a maid in the household of the Fourth Prince Hongli, Su Yushan trembled. She realized that when Hongli later ascended the throne as Emperor, she was highly likely to become ...

Chapter Seven: The Shameful Book

"Didn't we agree to consummate our marriage tonight? Logically, Fourth Master should be dining here!" Chang Yue, fearing something might go wrong, was worried but also concerned for her master's displeasure, so she kindly advised:

"Perhaps Fourth Master is still busy, he will come over after dinner."

At that time, Su Yushan was busy tasting the side dishes sent from the kitchen. As long as the food was to her liking, she didn't care whether Hongli would come to dine with her.

There were few forms of entertainment in ancient times, and most people went to bed early. Su Yushan was not used to it at first, but gradually she adapted to the local customs. After finishing her dinner, she began to feel sleepy after sitting for a while.

In the past few days, she could sleep whenever she wanted, but today Changyue said that the Fourth Master would be coming, and it would not be appropriate for her to sleep first. She asked her to wait a while and go to bed together after the Fourth Master arrived.

It's just someone coming! Is it really necessary to make such a fuss over her? Covering her mouth and yawning, Su Yushan pouted unhappily, "What if he doesn't come? Am I supposed to wait for him all night?"

"Please sit for a while, Princess. If the Fourth Master doesn't come in half an hour, you can go back to sleep."

Su Yushan silently did the math: half an hour is two hours! How should she pass the time?

Bored out of her mind, she asked Chang Yue to find her a book to read. Chang Yue immediately went to do so and searched for quite a while before finding one.

Su Yushan took it and was immediately dumbfounded! Of all things, this girl had given her a fire-avoidance diagram, filled with indescribable things. How was she supposed to look at it? She coughed awkwardly and said, "..."

"Do not look at what is improper. Are there any other books?"

She had just put the book down when Chang Yue shoved it into her hands again. "Princess, you have to serve the Fourth Master tonight. Take a look at this first, so you can make some preparations, won't you?"

Knowing that she was probably too embarrassed to look, Chang Yue made an excuse to leave first, so that she could watch quietly by herself.

In truth, everyone has a bit of curiosity, and since she had nothing else to do, Su Yushan casually flipped through the pages.
