Chapter 19: Throwing Water on Him
"Stupid woman, don't you think this is interesting?" Mu Xingci said with a wicked smile. After he let out his anger, his mood was indeed different.
"It's a hobby, right?" Yun Wansheng raised a cunning arc at the corner of her lips, raised her hand, scooped up the water in front of her and splashed it at the man opposite.
Before the man could react, she soaked him from head to toe. The man's awkward dodging caused the woman's silver bell-like laughter to ring in the house, making the guards outside wonder what their master was having so much fun with.
Mu Xingci listened to the woman's cheerful laughter and looked at her exposed body. He never expected that this woman would be so relaxed when playing that she would not be afraid of exposing herself in order to retaliate against him.
Thinking of this, he walked into the bathtub despite being splashed with warm water. As soon as he came in, he pushed the woman to the edge of the tub, and kissed her cherry lips fiercely without hesitation, which made the woman moan softly.
He used to have no interest in kissing a woman he didn't love, and he had been very disdainful of this woman before. If it weren't for what happened that day, he would never have fallen for a greedy woman like her.
But now her change has made him no longer disgusted. On the contrary, he thinks of her from time to time. Is he really a man who values appearance very much?
But there are many women who are more beautiful than her, why don’t I fall in love with them? Instead, I always want to be with her.
He didn't want to kiss her lips at first, but seeing her rosy lips opening and closing in front of him, sometimes smiling sweetly, sometimes angry and coquettish, he had the urge to kiss her to stop her.
Today he really couldn't hold back and finally kissed her. Sure enough, the woman's lips were soft and sticky, and her breath was sweet and fragrant. He couldn't stop after one kiss.
Feeling the excitement of the woman under him, Mu Xingci's eyes were deep and penetrating. He took off each other's clothes and entangled with the woman in the water.
That night, the man enjoyed the beauty of the woman to the fullest. Whenever he heard the woman scolding him in a coquettish manner, he kissed her so that she dared not scold him.
It wasn't until the second half of the night that the two of them fell into a deep sleep. Yun Wansheng woke up at noon the next day, but the man was no longer by her side.
After washing and dressing, Yun Wansheng took a contraceptive pill and then opened the door and walked out of the room. As soon as she left the room, she saw a few more servants in the courtyard, and even a maid was waiting at the door.
"Miss Yun, are you up?" The maid greeted her smartly.
"What are you doing?"
"The four of us were sent by the Marquis. The three of them will be responsible for cleaning the courtyard, and I will be responsible for your daily life."
"Oh! What's your name?"
"My name is Ping'er. Miss Yun, please feel free to tell me if you have anything to say."
"Okay? I have to go out for something, you stay home and clean up the house." Yun Wansheng said as she was about to go out.
"Miss Yun, let me go with you! This way I can take care of you." Ping'er stepped forward and said.
"No need. I'm used to shopping alone. Having one more person around makes me feel constrained. You go and clean up the room!" Yun Wansheng walked out without waiting for her to reply.
She hired a carriage in the market and drove out of the city, directly to the gate of the dilapidated temple. She asked the driver to wait for her there before she entered the temple.
As soon as she entered the dilapidated temple, she saw Goudan sitting next to the injured man, as if he was still saying something. When he saw her come in, his little dirty face was immediately surprised.
"Miss Yun!"
When he called her "Miss Yun", the three beggars in the corner also looked at her.
"Goudan, is that man feeling better?" Yun Wansheng just glanced at them and walked towards the little beggar.
"He woke up this morning, but couldn't move." Goudan stood up and pointed at the man.
Yun Wansheng looked down at the man, only to see the man on the ground also looking at her.
"I'm glad you woke up. Are you still feeling uncomfortable?" Yun Wansheng said kindly.
It seems that the money was not wasted. The man today is much cleaner than yesterday. Although his hair and clothes are dirty, his thin face has been wiped clean. It is not difficult to see that the man still looks good.
It's just his pair of gloomy eyes that make people feel that he is a man with a story.
"It was... you who saved me?" the man's voice was hoarse and weak.
"It can't be said that I saved you. If you want to thank someone, thank Goudan. I came here because he cares about you." Yun Wansheng didn't think of herself as a benefactor.
"What's your name, young lady? I will definitely repay you double when I recover from my injury."
"No, no, don't think about repaying me for a few ounces of silver. I'd feel ashamed. You're alive because you weren't destined to die. Now that you're okay, I'll go back. Goudan, come out for a moment."
Yun Wansheng didn't allow the man to speak and turned around and left the dilapidated temple.
Goudan followed and said, "Miss Yun, what do you want to talk to me about?"
"It's nothing. From now on, whenever you're hungry, just go to that noodle stall and eat noodles. I gave the owner a month's worth of noodles when I came here. You're still growing, so you can't go hungry."
Upon hearing this, Goudan knelt down in front of her with tears of gratitude on his face: "Thank you, young lady. I will always remember your kindness."
"Why are you kneeling down again? Get up quickly." This was all she could do. If she gave him money, it would surely be snatched away by those big beggars. This was the only way to protect this poor child.
On the way back, Yun Wansheng bought a set of men's clothes at a clothing store, and then went to a cosmetics shop to buy the necessary items.
After buying the food, she asked the driver to go to the teahouse in front to have some tea. She would pay for the tea while she rested in his carriage. He would come out to drive the carriage when she called him.
The driver readily agreed because he had money to pay. After he went to the teahouse in front, Yun Wansheng quickly changed into men's clothes in the carriage and then painted her face in front of the mirror.
She drew her eyebrows to be extremely rough, painted her red lips black, painted her face yellow, and finally put black dots on her cheeks, making her look like a pockmarked man.
After making sure that everything was alright, she got off the carriage without calling the coachman. She expected that when he got impatient, he would go and look for his carriage. By then, he would not know that it was a man who got off his carriage.
After walking out of that street, Yun Wansheng hired another carriage and went to the north city, heading straight to Lao Niu's blacksmith shop.
After an unknown amount of time, the carriage finally stopped at the Old Ox Blacksmith Shop. Yun Wansheng got off the carriage, paid the fare, and went into the shop.
"Sir, what do you need?" a waiter came forward enthusiastically.
"Where is your shopkeeper Niu?" Yun Wansheng glanced around the shop and saw a few customers buying farm tools.
"He's busy in the back. Is there anything you want to see him for?"
"Well! Please go find him and come over."
"Sir, please wait a moment." The waiter said politely and went to the back.
Yun Wansheng waited for a while, and then saw the shopkeeper Niu walking over with a red face and a dirty apron on. It seemed that he had been busy forging iron.
"Sir, are you looking for me?" Shopkeeper Niu did not recognize that the person was a woman.
"Shopkeeper Niu, I have a drawn blueprint here. I wonder if you can make it?" Yun Wansheng said as he spread the blueprint on the table.
