Whoops, keep forgetting to post this chapter.
Chapter 11 Engagement annulled again
Although Wu SheYue did not see this Prime Minister Manor’s actual master but the previous ones that she has met, not one of is normal. Although, she was always a logistician, but she still was a member of an assassination association. Right now she is considering whether or not to be a little direct and and just do away with these people.
After all, this bodies’s two people’s new enmities and old resentments should not not be avenged.
NingEr has no idea that her Third Miss is considering killing off the whole family and is off to the side following with her heart filled with excitement and fear.
After a while, in the front there is a page boy running over. He sees Jin momo being supported by two maidservants and slams on the brakes, almost bumping into them.
Jin momo utterly discomfited yells, “What now!”
The page boy, out of breath, says, “Momo, it’s, 8th prince has come again.”
“Really! (T/N: she says this in an exasperated manner) Where’s Master?” Jin momo uses a lot of strength to grab onto the two maidservants arm, hurting the two maidservants but the two don’t dare let out a sound.
“Prime Minister has not come back for two days! This little one was just about to look for Madam…….”
“Then quickly go! Go look in Eldest Miss’s Courtyard!” Jin momo is panicked to the point of almost wanting to stamp her foot. “Support me, support me to the front gate!”
Wu SheYue and NingEr are at the back in a place not too far away sauntering after them. After NingEr hears that 8th Prince has come, the blood drains from her face. “MIss did you hear! It’s, 8th prince has come again!” She thinks to the day Yin yiniang and Wu SheYue was carried back, her heart having some lingering fear.
“Come again?” Wu SheYue thinks she about being lazy and directly kill people, you sent yourself to the door, you can’t blame this on anyone~ NingEr already really anxious. “Before, 8th prince came to annul the marriage but because of what happened to Yin yiniang, it was not annulled! Why is it that three days has just passed and he comes again——aiya, if 8th prince wants to pull out a sword again, what’s to be done!”
Wu SheYue reaches out a hand to hold the hand of NingEr who is talking endlessly. “All right, that old lady walks slow, take me to a shortcut.”
“Ah?” NingEr at last knows, her Third Miss is not an idiot, she’s become crazy!
NingEr brings Wu SheYue to a shortcut and the two run all the way. On the way, they met a few people who she doesn’t know is a maidservant or a Miss. When they see Wu SheYue, they all cry out in alarm. Wu SheYue does not time to pay attention to them, barely gave them a glance.
Only NingEr wants to cry, when she was running she clearly saw Fifth Miss on the side staring at them…….
Having not run to front gate yet, Wu SheYue is able to hear a clamor from far away.
Amongst the clamor, there was a sentence that is very irritating to the ear. “——So I didn’t say incorrectly right? There are a lot of people here, can your house talk reason? Throw a girl that no one wants at this prince, treat this prince as someone who picks up ragged things?”
There are a few page boys with a bitter face outside begging in a low voice. “8th prince, why don’t we go and talk. Prime Minister will be back in a while.”
“I just don’t want to~” Just listening to that voice makes you want to give the person a good spanking, with a provoking tone the person says, “How about you bring your house’s Third guniang out and let everyone see what kind of goods she is! This grandpa’s manor’s slave girls that do heavy manual labor look better than her and is more interesting than her!”
三姑娘 – 三 is third, 姑娘 – is girl. However, it’s weird to translate it as Third girl so I’m going to translate it as Third guniang and if it’s just 姑娘 with nothing else in front, it will be translated a girl instead of guniang.
The page boys face’s color look bad, this is too embarrassing. Even though what 8th prince said is all true, but it should not be done on a large scale……
Wu SheYue slows down her step and asks NingEr, “This 8th prince really is arrogant~ on an ordinary day, what kind of background he comes from, I like~” I like to watch you first pretend to act all high and mighty and then afterwards get slapped in the face.
But NingEr thought Wu SheYue was for real, she stares at Wu SheYue. “Miss have you become silly again?! Nubi heard that 8th prince has more concbines than Eldest Miss has maidservants!”
Can you grow some brains, who would take a fancy to a studhorse.” Wu SheYue rolls her eyes, suddenly she uses her sleeves to cover her face and steps forward.
(T/N): when i read the first part of the above sentence this gif summarizes it all. By the way, studhorse is a horse kept especially for breeding.
NingEr was almost scared to death by this move, she braces herself and follows after.
Just as he was scolding Wu SheYue by enumerating her wrongdoing, suddenly he sees a lithe and graceful girl appear from behind the page boys. He was just about to change to a kinder tone to give his greetings, but sees clearly that the girl is wearing simple clothings and using her sleeves to cover her face, showing only one eye. She is Wu SheYue..
Similarly, Wu SheYue looks at 8th prince and measures him up. He looks about 20ish year old, the skin is not bad. He wears a noble purple robe, but the body is on the thin side and the eyebags are a little swollen. Thinking back to what NingEr said, Wu SheYue wickedly thinks it’s due to overindulgence in sensual pleasure.
Additionally, in back are 17 to 18 page boys and imperial bodyguards. On the streets are also a clamor of comments from a group of passive onlookers, the spectacle really is no small.
“Yo, your house’s Third Miss actually came out~” He says this with a mocking tone, he thought that it was a pretty Miss from the Prime Minister Manor that had come out to persuade him to leave, the result is that it’s this ugly person.
Those page boys from one own’s Prime Minister Manor seeing Wu SheYue has come, coldy says, “Third Miss, you should quickly go back and hide. This 8th prince at most did not say anything wrong, originally is an idiot adding on an ugly person. Thinking that she has not been humiliating enough and came out to add to the trouble.
Wu SheYue for the time being has no time to pay attention to these people that live on somebody while helping others secretly, only nervously holds her sleeve. “8th prince~ Are you here to annul the engagement?”
“Yeah, don’t know which part of this prince made you take a fancy to me, if worst comes to worst, I’ll just change it~” He uses his arms to rub his arms, it seems when he hears Wu SheYue talk, goosebumps appear, with much dislike, he says, “My manor is unable to hold your statue of beauty. Perhaps your Prime Minister Manor has a manager that does things dexterously, Third Miss might as well consider that person?”
