Chapter 31: Arrogant and Domineering
Comments:
First dips for my supporters - Cheers! From
now on, I will be taking on this project on my own website so new chapter
translations will mainly be posted here. My schedule, for now, will most of the
time be posting two chapters bi-weekly or one chapter weekly. So it varies. Stay
tune for the next chapter translation!
Notes:
Er ge = way
to address the second brother
biao ge/biao mei/biao jie = way to address cousins
biao ge/biao mei/biao jie = way to address cousins
Bai Zhi turned and looked towards Li
Wei Yang: “Xiaojie, what has just happened?”
Li Wei Yang succinctly replied:
“Someone wants to ruin me.”
At this hour, the rain has already
stopped. Li Wei Yang looked into the horizon at the rainbow, her pupils
contracted, and she spoke in a low voice: “If I had killed him just now, it
would have been great satisfaction, but unfortunately, he still has his use. Or
else for these wicked people who tarnish other’s reputations, to be pierced
with thousand knives, is not enough to quell my hatred.
Bai Zhi stood still.
Li Wei Yang gave her a glimpse but also
laughed and continued: “Let’s go ---“
Because it has just rained, lights were
reflecting off from the rainwater on the wet grounds. With both feet touching
the ground, it was impossible to avoid getting the skirt wet. Bai Zhi was too
busy holding up Li Wei Yang’s skirt that she forgot to react when she saw the
mumu guarding the door and instead repeatedly emphasized what the mumu had just
said: “Da furen said to close off our yuan zi?”
Guarding the door, Zhang mumu smilingly
said in the usual cold tone: “Yes, Da furen just sent someone over because Biao
shaoye was attacked, no one is allowed to leave this yuan zi.”
Li Wei Yang squinted her eyes and said,
“I was in my yuan zi for some time but I haven’t seen anyone suspicious.”
The creases on Zhang Mumu’s face were
very deep, her smile revealed a hint of malice, “I apologize, San xiaojie, who
is the one behind the attack, we have to wait for Da Fu Ren to decide.”
Li Wei Yang coldly smiled, she has
already expected that her opponent would use this tactic, lock everyone within
the yuan zi and then punish each one individually. She pursed her lips and in a
low voice said: “I am going to He Xiang Yuan, are you preventing me from
visiting Lao furen?”
Zhang mama chuckled: “San xiaojie, Lao
furen currently … I’m afraid she doesn't have the time to see you.”
Li Wei Yang showed a brief smile and
hid the hint of bitter hope in her eyes. Just because Da furen won’t let her,
would she not find other ways to see Lao furen? She has left Zi Yan and Mo Zhu
behind and instructed one to seek Prime Minister Li from his study and one to
seek Lao furen from He Xiang Yuan. Da furen must think she is a fool to just
sit here and wait for her to come and punish her?
“San xiaojie, please don’t take
offense!” Zhang mama waved her hand and then a few large waist mamas came
forward to seize Li Wei Yang.
Li Wei Yang sunk her face and snapped:
“Stop! I am the well-respected prime minister’s San xiaojie, how can I be
handled by such lowly servants? Not to mention that the truth is not yet known,
even if I did something wrong, it’s not up to you all to personally interrogate
me! Hurry and summon mother, tell her to come interrogate me personally!”
Bai Zhi was quick-witted, she
immediately warned the mamas behind them: “If San xiaojie suffers from any
injury and Lao furen looks into this, you all have to watch your lives!”
Everyone stared blankly at one another
and couldn’t help but feel the urge to protect Li Wei Yang instead to prevent
her from inflicting any injuries.
Zhang mama thought it was not a good
idea. Originally, Da furen ordered her to tie up San xiaojie but now --- San
xiaojie is after all a Zhuzi, she herself is just a servant, it is
inappropriate to offend the master. Her brows furrowed as she thought about it
for a while before smilingly said: “Nubi is only following Da furen’s orders
---“
Li Wei Yang lightly said: “Mother is
not an illogical person who doesn’t understand the importance of status! It
must be you servants who are misusing the master’s authority! Leave!” With
words spoken in such serious tone, Zhang Mama’s forehead was drenched with
sweat: “San xiaojie, Nubi really can’t do anything, I beg San xiaojie to
understand …..”
Seeing her unwilling to back off, Li
Wei Yang coldly spoke: “That’s fine, I will wait at the Liang Ting, you go
bring over some hot tea, a cloak, and a cushion. Once mother arrives, I will
personally explain to her!”
San xiaojie’s expressions did not
reveal any hints of anxiousness, not even panic from the thought of being
interrogated. Zhang mama spoke for a long time but in the end felt apprehended
so she told her people to prepare the things. Not for long, everything was
brought forward and Bai Zhi hung the cloak on the cool bench. Li Wei Yang
comfortably sat down, held the cup of hot tea in her hands, and thoughtfully
stared at Zhang mama.
Her expression was coldly distant as if
carrying an unfathomable chilling aura from the well in the cold winter. Zhang
mama originally came to seize her but was actually subdued by the imposing
manner of a thirteen-year-old girl. Standing there, her complexion paled as she
became uncertain what was to come.
Half an hour later, only the sound of a
jade bell can be heard with a light breeze of fragranced air. Da furen entered
the garden with a glamorous looking woman.
Because of the water stains, someone
has already placed a rosewood blanket on the grounds. As they approached
closer, Li Wei Yang observed from afar.
As Da furen approached and suddenly
realized Li Wei Yang was peacefully sitting down, her face darkened: “Wei Yang,
why haven’t you greet Wei Guo furen yet!”
Wei Guo furen indeed has a noble
reputation but as family, these type of etiquettes can be disregarded, which is
why everyone was standing there, coldly staring at Li Wei Yang as if they have
forgotten that she is also part of the Li family.
Li Wei Yang slightly smiled, stood up
to bow, and gently said: “Greetings to aunt.”
Wei Guo furen made a sound of
acceptance instead of signaling her to stand nor said anything else, but only
coldly sat down and lifted her eyes to give Li Wei Yang a glimpse and then
looked at Da furen and said: “This girl is very thick-skinned, not the usual
thickness.”
Da furen lightly smiled and only said:
“She was raised in the village since she was young so she wasn’t taught much
etiquettes. Sister, please don't laugh at me."
Wei Guo furen finally said: “You may
rise.”
Li Wei Yang coldly smiled inside: A very
domineering demeanor - it seemed like Da Furen wanted to put her to death with
this matter.
A young girl’s deliberate provocation
was heard: “It was you who ordered people to beat up my Er Ge?”
This girl was Wei Guo furen’s youngest
daughter Gao Min, who was the most arrogant and domineering. Li Wei Yang
lightly spoke: “Wei Yang only beat up a small thief who slipped into my yuan
and haven’t seen Min Biaojie’s Er Ge, you must have misunderstood!”
“What thief! You dare to insult my Er
Ge!” Gao Min aggressively questioned.
“Wei Yang is not smart; I don’t
understand Min Biaojie’s meaning. Could it be that the thief who trespassed
into my yuan today was Gao Jin Biaoge?”
Li Wei Yang showed no resentment nor
anger and instead stood there with a slight smile and she spoke without being
too overbearing nor too humble.
She obviously only said Li Wei Yang
beat up her Er Ge, when did she say her brother was a thief! Gao Min couldn’t
believe that Li Wei Yang was that good with her words that she can’t think of a
comeback, and instead angered herself as her face reddened.
Wei Guo furen originally wanted to let
Gao Min show off her authority but she couldn’t believe it backfired. She was
about to show her rage when Li Zhangle suddenly spoke: “What is going on
today!” Her eyes swept towards the maids and mamas standing by the side.
Bai Zhi softly voiced: “Reporting to
all Furens, today San Xiaojie brought us all to the garden because this
afternoon we saw a cuckoo dwelling in the garden and we were preparing to catch
it and gift it to Lao furen. Who would have known a person suddenly appeared,
not to say he scared away the cuckoo, but he was also sneaking ---“
Gao Min loudly interrupted: “What do you
mean by sneaking! That is my Er ge!”
Bai Zhi felt perturbed, but seeing Li
Wei Yang’s unwavering expression, she confidently continued: “Biao Xiaojie,
this is what we all nubis saw with our very own eyes, not just I telling a
lie.”
Gao Min suddenly became very angry and
raised her hand preparing to slap Bai Zhi. Li Wei Yang was quick to noticed,
walked a step forward to grab ahold of her wrist. Gao Min originally wanted to
show off her power and did not expect her hand to be held tightly by Li Wei
Yang in mid-air. Unable to move, she couldn’t help but fly into a temper: “Li
Wei Yang, how dare you, a mere concubine’s daughter dare to offend me!”
Li Wei Yang is young but she has
massive strength, she warmly smiled: “What do you mean Min Biaojie, Wei Yang is
worried venting off on a servant will make you lose face!”
Wei Guo furen couldn’t hold back any
longer and loudly slapped the stone table, “A mouth filled with nonsense, such
audacity, kneel down!”
