I was so angry I felt like I was about to be reborn, but I couldn't say anything.
“This young lady looks familiar; we’ve met her somewhere before.”
After getting what he wanted, the troublemaker stopped paying attention to Master San.
He started sizing me up, and when he spoke, he acted like we were old friends, which was quite annoying.
If it were before, I would definitely have sent him to Xiuyi Pavilion to be properly disciplined by Madam Lin.
"Young master is too kind. With your extraordinary bearing, how could you possibly have seen a country bumpkin like me plowing the fields at the edge of the village?" In order to get away as quickly as possible, I tried to make my tone sound like Er Ya from the neighbor's house.
"I think you look a lot like my elder sister. May I see that you remove your veil? If I offend you, please forgive me." After saying this, without waiting for my consent, she flashed her long sword and the veil fell to the ground.
That little brat has only gotten more annoying and arrogant over the years. He dared to lift a young woman's veil without even asking permission! How audacious and unreasonable! He truly lives up to his reputation as the tyrant of Minchuan.
"Young master, you are so eager to see my true face, is it because you have taken a fancy to me? If you like me, you are welcome to come and propose marriage. Young master, you are so handsome, I am thrice blessed to have caught your eye."
After the veil was lifted, I casually rolled up my sleeves to cover half of my face, hoping to fool everyone for the time being.
The troublemaker stared at me for a long time without making a sound, probably because he didn't recognize me. I breathed a sigh of relief and took out another veil to cover my face. I was quite impressed with my own cleverness. No matter what, I always had a veil on me. I have to thank my father for that. If he hadn't forced me to get married and made me run away from home, making me hide here and there, I wouldn't be wearing a mask every day.
"Please forgive me, young lady. I was mistaken. You are so stunningly beautiful. Although my elder sister and you share some resemblance in your features, she is not nearly as beautiful as you. I was presumptuous. Please forgive me for any offense I may have caused."
He still didn't recognize me, only saying that we looked somewhat alike. Thank goodness.
“You flatter me, sir. I am but a peasant woman. Even if I have mistaken you for someone else, it is no big deal. However, I have urgent business to attend to in Tongzhen ahead. I would be grateful if you could do me a favor.”
I was about to lose my temper. I tried to get away as quickly as possible, but this devil was determined to get rid of me. He not only stopped his horse in the middle of the road, but also got off. I was terrified. I was doomed.
Seeing him take off his cloak made me even more uneasy.
“It’s getting cold, and you’re dressed so lightly for the journey. You’ll probably catch a cold. If you don’t mind, I can lend you this cloak to keep you warm. If you don’t want it after we get into the city, you can do with it as you please.”
He was trying to please the beauty, but he gave me quite a fright. My philandering brother has really gone too far with his hands; he's even reached out to me. I really want to dig a hole and bury this shameful guy right now, but unfortunately, the situation doesn't allow it.
I pretended to be grateful as I took the clothes and draped them over my shoulders.
"Then thank you very much, young master. I left in a hurry today and didn't have time to bring warm clothes. It's really a blessing from heaven that I met you today. I will definitely repay your kindness in the future. I'm sorry for neglecting you now." "Third Master, let's hurry on our way. It's over. We won't be able to come back tonight."
