Chapter 60 - Helian Yi’s Night Visits to Fragrant GardenSeeing Yue Er in a daze, Mo Youyou extended his hand out and waved it in front of Yue Er: “What’s wrong, Yue Er? “What are you thinking about?”
Yue Er regained her senses and was startled, her eyes flickered, “No, nothing, Miss.”
Seeing that Yue Er seemed to be reluctant to part, Mo Youyou thought that Yue Er and Miss Mo had lived in the Fragrant Garden for so many years, it was likely that they were used to it, and did not force Yue Er any more.
She said to Yue Er, “Forget it, let us stay here for now. Go and find someone to clean up this place. If it’s raining, then clean up again.“Yes, miss.”
In the afternoon, Yue Er was sitting on the stairs outside of the palace with a joyous expression as she looked at the Fragrant Garden who had changed greatly.“Miss, how do you know all this? I never thought that under your modifications, our Fragrant Garden would become even more beautiful than Second Miss’s Orchid Garden.” But suddenly thinking about the old master, Yue Er retracted the smile on his face. If the old master saw that the Fragrant Garden had been changed to such a state, would he be angry?
Mo Youyou could see through Yue Er’s worry, but she did not care about it. With a pleased smile, she asked Yue Er, “Oh? Is that so? ”
Seeing Yue Er nod and say “yes” with a serious expression, Mo Youyou stood up and walked to the swing in the courtyard.“Yue Er, there’s nothing else, tell me more about what happened in the Wanzhou Continent.”
“Miss, why do you suddenly want to hear this?”
Mo Youyou pursed his lips and laughed, “Everyone is busy with Mo Yan’s funeral, the one General Mo’s Residence has the most free time is us, if we don’t chat, what would we do? Talk about other things. You’re not in the same channel as me, so this is the only thing we can talk about. I’ll just treat it as a story and repeat it. ”Yue Er heard that Mo Youyou’s words made sense, so she walked over and stood behind Mo Youyou. As she pushed her on the swing, he told her everything she knew about the entire Wanzhou Continent.
Three days later, also the day Mo Yan was buried, Mo Youyou did not participate in his funeral. Thus, in order for Mo Yan to report to the Underworld with peace of mind, she chose to stay in her Fragrant Garden.
Early in the morning, Mo Youyou was lying on the rattan chair in the courtyard, enjoying the warm breeze of the sun.
Yue Er brought over some light dishes and walked over. Seeing that Mo Youyou was resting with his eyes closed, she smiled slightly and said, “Young miss, it’s time to eat.”
Mo Youyou suddenly opened his eyes and looked in Yue Er’s direction, quickly getting up and walking over.The two of them sat opposite to each other, but Yue Er still felt a little awkward. She had been a servant for so many years, and she had always been serving food to the young miss. It was just that a few days ago, when she returned to General Mo’s Residence, the young miss unexpectedly asked her to accompany her to eat.
Seeing that Yue Er was still a little constrained, she added a few dishes to Yue Er and told her:
“Don’t be so courteous, Yue Er, in the future, the two of us will depend on each other for our lives, my father is not too reliable, he has so many wives, his daughter can’t even sit on a carriage, to put it harshly, I am just a pawn in his hands.”
Thinking about how he would spend more time with Yue Er in the future, Mo Youyou felt that he should take this opportunity to dispel any doubts and scruples he had about her identity. After pausing for a moment, Mo Youyou continued.
“Ever since I was designed by Mo Yan to fall into the fecal drain, I am no longer the cowardly Mo Youyou I was before. In short, we can’t always be bullied by these people! Yue Er, on the day that I woke up, I saw that you were not leaving my side, nor did you dislike the smell of my body. From then on, I treated you as my family, my good sister. ”With that, Yue Er stood up quickly and replied: Miss, please do not say it like that, how could Yue Er possibly allow you to treat Yue Er in such a manner? To protect you and to be loyal to you is Yue Er’s duty. ”
Hearing Yue Er’s words, Mo Youyou reminded her, “Alright, I understand your intentions, hurry and eat.” She was not an emotional person, nor was she good at these things. She was good to whoever was good to her.
After the two finished their breakfast, Mo Youyou laid back on the rattan chair in boredom and started reading. Yue Er was in the courtyard pruning the flowers and plants.
After Mo Yan was buried, Li Rong fainted twice due to excessive grief. Mo Sheng pitied her so she let Mo Li accompany her and ordered someone to send her back to the Emerald Mountain Garden.
Mo Li guarded beside Li Rong’s bed. With tears in her eyes, her eyebrows knitted tightly.
“Mother, don’t be sad. If Ran’er sees you like this, she will be sad.”
The tip of Li Rong’s nose turned slightly red. Thinking of her pitiful and sensible Ran’er, her heart felt extremely tight.
All of this was because of that little bitch Mo Youyou! With eyes full of hatred, Li Rong took out a palm sized gold plate from her bosom and handed it over to Mo Li, and spoke in a somewhat hoarse voice.“Take this and go find the Lifesteal Hall’s Hall Master. You must cut off that bitch’s head for me tonight!”
Mo Li’s heart tightened, “Mother, have you thought this through? If royal father were to find out, the entire Lifesteal Hall will not be able to hold on. ”
“If even my daughter is gone, what use do I have to have the Lifesteal Hall! Tonight, I will find a way to keep your father and give them more time. You should look for the pavilion master first! ”
After Mo Li heard what Li Rong said, she held onto the order badge tightly. The two of them looked at each other, tonight, they would definitely kill Mo Youyou and take revenge for Ran’er!
In Fragrant Garden, Mo Youyou was lying on the vine chair and blankly staring at the sky. When he saw the little bird flying in the sky, he suddenly sat up and asked curiously.
“Yue Er, in these two days, has anyone in Prince Jing’s Manor come to deliver their letter?”
Yue Er was startled for a moment, she shook her head: “Miss, why did you ask about this?”
She and Yue Er had already been back to the General’s Estate for more than three days. After Helian Yi sent someone to send them back, there was no news of them.
In any case, she and Helian Yi already had that layer of relationship, and they could be considered allies … After finding all sorts of reasons why Helian Yi should send someone to deliver a letter to him, Mo Youyou despised himself in his heart.
He stared at the sky, seemingly lost in thoughts. Seeing that, Yue Er revealed a faint smile, and thought: I’m afraid that young miss is thinking of Prince Jing. However, such an outstanding man like Prince Jing, any woman would definitely miss him!
When night came, Mo Youyou had already gone to sleep at ease. Outside of Fragrant Garden, more than ten masked men in black suddenly appeared, sneakily surrounding the entire Fragrant Garden.One of the leading man had a thumb sized knife scar faintly discernable on his forehead. He looked at the others with cold eyes and greeted them, then quietly walked towards Mo Youyou’s sleeping quarters.
When he walked out of the hall and saw the few maids guarding the door, he gestured to the other black-hearted men who were walking over. Upon seeing this, they nodded their heads and knocked the few maidservants out, then retrieved a slender bamboo tube from his bosom and placed them inside Mo Youyou’s room. Soon, the room was filled with smoke as a strong smell wafted into his nose.
Mo Youyou felt someone lifting her up into the air in his dreams, and a big warm hand covered her nose and mouth. There was also the faint aroma of ambergris. Very familiar …
Her lips curled up, it’s him, Helian Yi! Her brows furrowed as she thought to herself in her sleep, “I didn’t expect to meet you in my dream. I was really like a lingering ghost.” But she was obviously secretly delighted!
