Chapter 192: Ugly Mother is Just Ugly Mother
Since the two teams merged.
Wen Yan, Uncle Lin and the others clearly felt that they were being monitored.
Wen Ruyue and Situ Ming don't even pretend.
It wasn't until they set up camp to rest at night that Uncle Lin had the chance to talk to Wen Yan: "Why did you suddenly change your mind and go with them?"
They have been monitoring us, and I am afraid it will be detrimental to our actions.”
Wen Yan stirred the porridge in her hand and said, "Situ Ming is vicious and suspicious. He discovered our existence last night. If he can't control it under his nose, he will probably get rid of us as soon as possible."
Uncle Lin fell silent.
He did not doubt Wen Yan's words.
But I just didn't expect that Situ Ming, who looked gentle and polite, could be so cruel.
It is true that you can know a person’s face but not his heart!
Wen Yan lowered her head and stirred the porridge in the pot.
Uncle Lin sat for a while, then stood up and left for fear of arousing other people's suspicion.
Who would have thought that Uncle Lin had just left.
Wen Ruyue's maid Qingzhu passed by Wen Yan carrying a basin.
Unexpectedly, she tripped and a basin of hot water was poured on Wen Yan's face.
"Ah..." Wen Yan felt chilled to the bone.
"Sorry, sorry, the ground is uneven and I didn't step firmly... How is it? I hope I didn't hurt you!" Qingzhu apologized while taking out a handkerchief and wiping the water off Wen Yan's face.
She is very strong.
Rubbing Wen Yan's scars vigorously.
It was not enough to wipe it with a handkerchief, she pinched, pulled and rubbed the scar with her hands.
"Ah...what are you doing! Help!" Wen Yan screamed, but could not escape Qingzhu's grip.
Uncle Lin, who had just walked a short distance, immediately turned back, grabbed Qingzhu's arm and pulled her away.
Pei'er also rushed over, hugged Wen Yan in her arms and comforted her: "It's okay, it's okay. I won't let anyone bully you as long as I'm here."
Then, she stared at Qingzhu fiercely: "Why did you hurt her!"
Qingzhu was about to make an excuse.
Wen Yan threw herself into Pei'er's arms, crying heartbreakingly: "Wuwu...Miss, don't blame her.
She threw hot water on me because I was ugly and scared her.
The scar on my face must have scared her, so she picked at my scar with her hands.
Miss, please let me go and let me fend for myself.
I don’t want to burden you anymore, wuwuwuwu…”
Wen Yan cried so hard that she fainted in an instant.
Pei'er was frightened and kept calling Wen Yan's name.
She glared at Qingzhu fiercely: "If you are angry, just come at me, why do you have to implicate innocent people!"
"I...this...I..." Qingzhu cried out in injustice, "I didn't mean to splash water on her. It was because the road was uneven and I didn't stand firmly, so the water accidentally splashed on her.
I didn't pinch her scar, I just wanted to help her wipe the water off her body..."
Qingzhu had never felt so wronged before. She felt like she couldn't explain herself even if she opened her mouth a hundred times.
"Since you don't like us so much, let's just leave."
Pei Er wiped away her tears stubbornly and told Uncle Lin and the others: "Pack up your things and leave here now. We don't deserve to be honored by our kind brother."
Qingzhu was extremely anxious.
Stand up and stop them.
Pearl regarded her as an enemy, "Why, now we don't even have the right to leave?"
It looked like they were about to quarrel.
Situ Mingcai arrived late.
He pretended to be confused and asked, "What happened? Ugly mother, what is this..."
Miss Pei'er's temper also flared up. She pouted and glared at Situ Ming with grievance: "Humph, ask your maid."
Situ Ming immediately looked at Qing Zhu with a serious expression: "Tell me, what did you do?"
Qingzhu quickly lowered his head and told the story in a roundabout way.
Pei'er said angrily: "Wipe water? Who can wipe her face like this?"
Pei'er lifted Wen Yan's bangs, revealing the red pinch marks on the twisted scar.
In some places, there are even traces of broken skin and bleeding.
It makes the already ugly scar even more terrifying.
Situ Ming just took a look and looked away.
He glared at Qingzhu angrily and scolded him, "You can't even hold a basin of water properly, how can you do your job? I'm here to apologize to you on his behalf."
"Good brother, you didn't do it, why should you apologize? Besides, I wasn't the one who got hurt!"
Situ Ming glared at Qing Zhu again: "For hurting someone like this, you deserve ten slaps in the face."
"Young Master..." Qingzhu looked at Situ Ming and shook his head.
It was just an ugly slave who splashed some water on her and pinched her face a few times.
Why should she slap herself in public?
She doesn't accept it!
Situ Ming's eyes turned cold.
Qingzhu shrank back and had to slap himself in the face.
The crisp sound of slaps rang out again and again.
Situ Ming came to comfort Pei'er again.
It simply means that their team is small and it would be dangerous to walk alone.
He also said that if anyone felt that the punishment for Qingzhu was not enough, they could raise it.
Pei Er stopped when she saw that things were going well, and said with red eyes: "I am already satisfied that good brother can make the decision for ugly mother. Good brother, you are such a good person!"
Situ Ming felt uncomfortable when Pei'er called him "good brother".
He nodded with a stiff smile, gave Wen Yan a bottle of healing medicine, and then left.
Qingzhu glared at Wen Yan and Pei'er fiercely, then followed them closely.
She remembered this grudge.
Situ Ming came to a blind spot.
Qingzhu immediately followed obediently.
"This is the best medicine. It will be good for the wound on your face." Situ Ming put away his calm expression, took out a small porcelain bottle from his sleeve and handed it to her.
Qingzhu took the porcelain bottle with both hands and held it to his chest with care: "Thank you, sir."
Situ Ming's face brightened a little, "I had no choice just now, I'm sorry for putting you in such a difficult position."
"As long as I can help you, sir, this little grievance is nothing." Qingzhu looked shy, her cheeks as red as a ripe pomegranate.
Situ Ming is the prince's military advisor.
I am the first-class maid of the Crown Prince's wife, and I am the most suitable one for her in terms of status and future.
Situ Ming lowered his eyes, hiding his true emotions, and then asked, "Is that ugly woman in disguise or is she really injured?"
"It should be real." Qingzhu said without hesitation, "Her skin feels warm and soft. And I rubbed and pinched it hard, but there was no breakage. The scar is red, swollen and broken, and there are signs of bleeding."
She pinched her cheek again. "However, her scars feel slightly different from my skin. They feel a little harder. If you don't believe me, pinch my face and compare."
Qingzhu blinked shyly and looked at him expectantly.
Situ Ming: "..." It seems that I was worrying too much.
Ugly mother is really just an ugly mother.
"I understand. Thank you very much today." After Situ Ming said this, he turned and left.
Qingzhu was stunned for a moment, then held her face shyly: "He must be shy..." and then.
The grain transport team became much more well-behaved and no more trouble occurred.
Since Jinyang Prefecture, the drought has become visibly more severe.
