Jiang Yuwei felt like dying at this moment. How could she not understand the importance of chastity in this society? If she were defiled by another man in the Sun family today, she would definitely have no face to face Ning Huaizhi again.
As Jiang Yuwei was thinking this, she suddenly remembered that she still had a space where she could hide.
In the blink of an eye, Jiang Yuwei entered the space with a thought, then took off her clothes, climbed into the spiritual spring water and soaked her whole body in it. Before long, she felt her mind clear and the irritating heat completely disappeared.
At this moment, outside the space, Feng Rui entered the room and saw that there was no one on the bed. He assumed that Jiang Yuwei had not been brought over yet. In addition, he had been drinking and his head was still a bit hazy, so he thought he would take a nap first.
Outside, Madam Sun, an impatient woman, saw Feng Rui enter the house from afar and hurriedly went to invite Master Sun.
"Master, something terrible has happened! Stop calculating and come with me to see what shameful things your adopted sister has been up to!"
Seeing Madam Sun's loud and boisterous manner, Master Sun frowned and said:
"What are you doing? Don't you have any manners? Why are you acting so crazy? I think you're just picking a fight with Yuwei. What did she do to offend you?"
Upon seeing this, Madam Sun immediately pulled Master Sun up and headed for the door.
“Sir, I was thinking that I spoke a bit harshly to her today, and I didn’t want to put you in a difficult position, so I thought I’d let her stay for lunch before she left.”
Then, Madam Sun continued with a look of disgust:
"Who would have thought she would keep drinking and get herself drunk? I had no choice but to ask Chun Tao to help her downstairs to rest. But just as Chun Tao had settled her down and made some sobering tea to take to her, she heard sounds of a man and woman making love right outside her room."
Upon hearing Madam Sun's words, Master Sun was greatly alarmed. He quickened his pace and glared at Madam Sun, asking:
Is this really true?
Madam Sun nodded helplessly.
“Chun Tao is a young girl, she has never experienced anything like this before, so she ran to tell me. I thought that she is your sworn sister, and this happened in our house, so I had to ask you to come and take a look before making a decision.”
As the two spoke, they reached the doorway. Master Sun first peered through the doorway, listening intently. Seeing no sound from inside, he looked at Madam Sun with a puzzled expression.
"It's not appropriate for me, as the older brother, to go in. You go in and see what's going on."
Madam Sun was eager to rush in and catch them in the act of adultery. Upon hearing Master Sun's instructions, she kicked open the door and strode to the bedside.
Feng Rui, who had been asleep, was awakened by the sound of the door opening. Thinking that Chun Tao had brought someone to him, he hurriedly got up, still half asleep. Before he had even fully opened his eyes, he saw a woman standing by his bed.
He then pulled the woman into his arms and began to undress her, muttering something under his breath.
"Here you are, my little lady. Today I'll pamper you properly."
At this moment, Madam Sun, who was being held by Feng Rui, also panicked and struggled, hitting Feng Rui and cursing:
"Feng Rui, are you crazy? I'm your cousin! Let me go! Ahhh! Master! Master! Help me!"
Hearing something amiss from inside, Master Sun, who was outside the door, disregarded everything else and pushed the door open, rushing in.
At this moment, Madam Sun was lying on the bed, entangled with Feng Rui. Most of her clothes had been removed. Upon seeing this, Master Sun was furious and kicked Feng Rui, who was straddling Madam Sun, away.
At this moment, Feng Rui, having been kicked by Master Sun, instantly regained his senses and exclaimed in surprise at Madam Sun's disheveled state on the bed:
"Cousin, what are you doing here? Didn't you tell me to come and sleep with Jiang Yuwei?"
Looking at her foolish cousin, Madam Sun wished she could tear his mouth off right then and there, and hurriedly opened her mouth to scold him:
"Shut up! Get out of the Sun residence! And never let me see you again!"
After hearing Feng Rui's words, Master Sun understood what was going on. Now, he felt that his mother's last words were absolutely true: Madam Sun was a menace, and keeping her in the Sun family might cause any trouble.
So Master Sun flicked his sleeves and said to Madam Sun in a deep voice:
“You and your good cousin, get out of the Sun residence together. Today you will move to Jingci Nunnery. I will tell everyone that you went to eat vegetarian food and chant Buddhist prayers for the old lady. That will save you face. You don’t need to come back to the Sun residence again.”
After saying this, Master Sun flicked his sleeves and left.
Upon seeing this, Madam Sun hurriedly ran after him to plead for mercy, and Feng Rui was directly carried out of the Sun residence by the servants.
At this moment, everyone in the room had left, and Jiang Yuwei then emerged from the space, fully dressed.
Jiang Yuwei had never tried it before and had no idea that this space could have such a function. Just now, while she was inside the space, she heard everything that was being said outside.
Madam Sun's current predicament is of her own making. She had no dealings with Master Sun to begin with, and now that the shop has been sold and she has left Ping'an Town, she will have no further connection with Master Sun.
Unexpectedly, Madam Sun resorted to such underhanded tactics out of jealousy. Now she can no longer even be a proper Madam Sun. It seems that she will only be able to spend her days with a Buddhist lamp and a Buddha statue.
Jiang Yuwei left the house and went directly to say goodbye to Master Sun. Since it was still early and she had agreed to return to the village with Tie Zhu and the others, Jiang Yuwei wanted to take advantage of this time to deliver the silver to the remaining members.
Just as Jiang Yuwei arrived at the gate of the Xu residence, she saw four or five carriages parked outside, laden with large and small bundles, as if they were moving house.
Jiang Yuwei was wondering when she saw Xu Mohan step down from one of the carriages.
"Oh, Jiang Yuwei, what brings you here? Did you know I was returning to Beijing and came to see me off in person?"
Jiang Yuwei, fearing Xu Mohan would misunderstand, quickly waved her hand and said:
“I didn’t know that Young Master Xu was going to the capital. I’m here today to return the money to Second Young Master Xu.”
Upon hearing this, Xu Mohan stepped forward, stared into Jiang Yuwei's eyes, and smiled:
"Interesting. You borrowed money from my second brother? What's your relationship with him?"
Feeling a little guilty under Xu Mohan's gaze, Jiang Yuwei quickly turned her face away and said:
“It wasn’t borrowed, and I have no relation to the Second Young Master. This is a long story, so I’ll leave it at that for now. Isn’t the Eldest Young Master in a hurry to get to the capital? It’s getting late, so I think you should hurry on your way. These days, bandits are rampant, so the Eldest Young Master should be careful.”
Xu Mohan's lips curled slightly upon hearing Jiang Yuwei's words:
"It's a pity I won't be able to see you again. Are you in such a hurry for me to leave?"
