123's eyes reddened with envy. "Master, I want to go too."
"Then next time it's your turn to go with Huanling."
123 perked up; it was wonderful that its master had agreed so easily.
"I knew my master was the best."
Xiao Li touched its ears. Of course, it was the best. But had the silly creature forgotten that it couldn't stray too far from her?
Let's remind it of this fact next time.
Yun Yiyi returned to the Marquis's residence in a sullen mood. She recalled the knowing smiles on Liu Li and Liu Qingcheng's faces, and the happy smile on Sun Huiniang's face as she looked at them.
She felt extremely uncomfortable. Why should Liu Li be able to find happiness after leaving the Marquis's mansion? She should be trampled on in the mud; only then would she feel relieved.
Even after going to bed at night, Yun Yiyi was still angry and didn't notice that it was unusually quiet tonight.
The little girl outside the door had already fallen asleep, and Xiao Jiu walked in disguised as a terrifying zombie.
"Click...click..."
The sound of footsteps was especially clear in the dead of night, as if stepping on one's heart.
Yun Yiyi heard it, but she didn't open her eyes.
"Xiao Yan, you damn hussy, go check it out, it's so noisy."
There was silence outside the door, and no one answered. Yun Yiyi was furious. Neither of them respected her. She was determined to teach this disobedient girl a lesson.
She opened her eyes, sat up, and was about to put her feet down to put on her shoes when she met a pair of grayish-white eyes.
"ah……"
Yun Yiyi fainted.
Xiao Jiu blinked. This is too easily frightened; it hasn't even unleashed its ultimate move yet.
Xiao Jiu stretched out a piece of vine to play with Yun Yiyi's hair.
Wake up!
Yun Yiyi felt completely disoriented, as if someone was calling her.
She woke up and was stunned for a long time.
Suddenly remembering what had just happened, she turned her head to look.
Then I saw a well-behaved and adorable child smiling at me.
Yun Yiyi chuckled to herself, realizing she was dreaming.
Xiao Jiu stopped smiling, opened her mouth wider and wider, until it completely enveloped Yun Yiyi's head before stopping.
"Thump..."
Yun Yiyi fainted again.
Xiao Jiu continued to tease Yun Yiyi, and after a moment, she slowly woke up.
"What was that just now?"
She suddenly remembered.
"ah……"
Perhaps because she had fainted twice before, she was immune this time. When she saw Xiao Jiu take off her head, she didn't faint, but instead screamed loudly.
Xiao Jiu cleaned his ears and then put his head back on.
"You're so noisy."
Xiao Jiu tapped Yun Yiyi's neck, and she immediately lost her voice, but this made things even more terrifying.
"Thump..."
Yun Yiyi fainted again.
This night was destined to be anything but ordinary. Yun Yiyi didn't know how many times she had fainted, but each time she woke up, she saw a different monster.
By the end, she had become numb. These monsters were indeed terrifying, but they hadn't harmed her, and she had become much braver.
Xiao Jiu got tired of playing too, so it asked Huan Ling to give Yun Yiyi an illusion so she could play by herself.
Yun Yiyi suddenly felt like she was in a different place; she had actually run out of her bedroom and into the outside world.
It's so cold here. She hugged her arms when suddenly a large dog she had never seen before chased after her, baring its sharp teeth.
She screamed in fright and ran away.
She had no choice but to run; she could see the flesh and blood hanging from the beast's teeth. It was clearly a carnivore, and she would be eaten if she didn't run.
Having barely escaped, I saw another large cat with a king-shaped pattern on its forehead coming towards me.
She recognized the tiger; she had heard about it from many people.
She had to run again, because tigers eat people too.
She ran and ran until she could run no more. As the tiger pounced on her, she closed her eyes in despair.
"Miss, Miss, what's wrong?"
Yun Yiyi screamed and woke up from her dream. She looked at Xiao Yan, who was trying to comfort her. She was not dead.
"Was it all a dream? But why did it feel so real?"
She held Xiaoyan's hand tightly, slowly calming herself down.
"Miss, what's wrong?"
Yun Yiyi didn't want Xiao Yan to know, lest she laugh at her, so she slowly let go of her hand and calmed down.
"fine."
Xiao Yan secretly touched her hand; it still hurt from being grabbed.
After dressing up, Yun Yiyi went to pay her respects to the Lady of the Marquis.
As soon as she entered the courtyard, she saw a group of people kneeling down.
"This is……"
Yun Yiyi felt uneasy. What had happened?
Lady Hou and Lord Yun were sitting in the shade of the courtyard.
Yun Yiyi walked over and bowed, "Father, Mother, what's wrong?"
Lady Hou rubbed her forehead, clearly having a headache.
Lord Yun glanced at Yun Yiyi. Ever since this daughter returned, he had been plagued by misfortune.
First, the Prince of Nanyang, with whom he had always been on good terms, suddenly stopped paying attention to him, which greatly damaged his popularity.
Furthermore, she was impeached, causing unrest in her household, and even the Emperor inquired about her daughter's affairs.
Then his colleagues mocked him for finding a black-faced, crying mess, and he was too ashamed to face anyone.
Now it's even worse. My house was burgled last night, and all my belongings were stolen.
What an unlucky year!
?
Xiao Jiu and Huan Ling happily returned to Peach Blossom Village. Last night was so much fun! When they were about to leave after playing enough, they suddenly heard two servants talking about their master.
"You don't know, Peach Blossom Village is very remote. To get to town from there, you have to take an oxcart, or walk. Miss Li is in a terrible situation now."
"That's for sure. How can the countryside compare to our Marquis's mansion? I heard they have to be stingy when they eat an egg, unlike us in the mansion, where we can eat eggs every day."
"Yes, it's a pity that Miss Li has such a beautiful face. I'm afraid that in a few years she will end up like our young lady."
"Ha ha……"
Xiao Jiu was so angry that she wanted to skin the two of them alive, but Huan Ling held her back.
"Little Nine, our master is cultivating merit, so we can't commit indiscriminate killing. Watch me."
The illusionary spirit created a dream world for the two of them, and they won't be able to wake up tonight.
Xiao Jiu was still furious. "Let's go treasure hunting. The Marquis's mansion is so wealthy, it's a good opportunity to fill your space."
Huanling exclaimed excitedly, "This is great!"
The two little ones ran around the Marquis's mansion, taking advantage of the fact that no one could see them, and ransacked the place room by room.
That was incredibly meticulous; they even brought back an egg from the kitchen.
Now the Marquis's mansion can't find eggs if they want to eat them, and they don't have the money to buy them either.
The thought of everyone in the Marquis's mansion looking at each other in bewilderment while guarding an empty house made Xiao Jiu extremely happy.
"Master, you don't know, we emptied the entire Marquis's mansion last night, and even found Marquis Yun's private treasury."
Xiao Li chuckled. These two mischievous little devils were really naughty. But even if they didn't do that, she was planning to empty the place herself in a while.
Who told Yun Yiyi to be so hateful? She deserves to have a miserable life.
