Chapter 14 (1/2)
Thewith an excited vigour,
in addition Xia Ling Mei had agreed to persist tomorrow
wang
residence side courtyard was brightly lit, a hubbub of voices, the main
courtyard however was a serene darkness, an indescribable stillness, the dinner
thetouched, on a
normal day people would have still co,
tonight even mosquitos could not be seen
Juan Shu
stepped into the main courtyard, he couldn’t help but utter: “There’s only the
laughter of the young, where do you hear the crying of the old”
wang Yun
Feng stood rigidly inside the house, he did not turn his head: “Is there
someone suitable for her?”
“Oh dear,for in a husband cannot
be achieved by ordinary people In my opinion, it would take half a year to
pick one”
wang Yun
Feng coldly snorted, putting the book in his hand without thought into the
bookcase: “How many officials are there in such a small place like Chenzhou who
are above fifth rank, the highest ranked fourth rank Lord Hua already has a
proper wife, he also has two sons fro Mei
absolutely will not consider a man with a wife”
Juan Shu
happily laughed: “The mistress said if he’s not an official she will accept
hihu”
wang Yun
Feng had just picked up a book before shu
are i, not clear of
black and white, even if he fulfils her requireht
not be able to protect her properly Don’t think people of the Jianghu only has
one proper wife, a hu would keep one or two
concubines, if Xia Ling Mei finds out, she would tear
apart their skin”
Juan Shu
shuddered: “That, what if the lady returned to Beiding city, to find a husband
ast the influential families of the Imperial City?”
wang Yun
Feng was drinking tea, the tea had been boiled in the afternoon, the maids only
reo where the croere, sie it, his
heart was anxious, pouring cups after cups of tea from the cold teapot Cold
and bitter tea went down his throat,about it for quite a while, before slowly saying: “If she really returns to
Beiding City, I’m actually not afraid”
Everyone
knew Xia Ling Mei is wang Yun Feng’s first wife Apart from those who held
power in the Xia fa residence’s
o deserted the place That year, after Xia Ling Mei had
forced hin his name on the divorce documents she had left by herself,
he did not make it known to the public he had already divorced his wife, he
only said to the people of wang and Xia she was seriously ill, unable to meet visitors
deep inside the residence Therefore, at the end of every year Xia Ling Mei
returned to the Xia residence, outsiders would only think she was feeling a bit
better, using the new year to return home to visit the family The Xia family
wouldn’t tell others their daughter had been divorced, wang Yun Feng restrained
his own family, no one could ask to see the mistress to disturb her
recuperation
Over these years’
people have obscurely suggested to present him with maids and concubines, they
were all scared away by hirim imperial censor Any man,
afterfor ten years without a son from his first ould be
sufficient towas
unconcerned, apparently he wasn’t to set on having son to succeed his title
Those intelligent, did not dare to rashly offend the
Xia family, more than that
to dare provoke the shreife of Beiding City; those not intelligent, who
directly presented concubines and ,residence, the next day if that
girl wasn’t resold she was matched with another man There were also ambitious
wo they would bite this imperial officer’s hard bones, frail and
charentle and softly spoken, or straightforward
and optimistic, <the></the>< p=””>
Stratagems to attract a husband> was
played every day, the different situations wereYun
Feng in various ways, when he really couldn’t resist, Juan Shu would almost
lose his chastity on his behalf, so scared he would shut himself in the small
courtyard repeating to hiers` for several days, before he
got better
Juan Shu
chastity was under threat, Bai Yan showed extreer Bai Yan who had learned
the master’s cold mood completely, took it upon himself in the days after, in
the battle to defend the chastity of theresidence, a firm
protector, with a cold sword pushi+ng all the women to dissolve in tears
Xia Ling
Mei did not know about this at all The Xia family wouldn’t tell her such
things to irritate her broken heart, the secret guards fro family who
protected her knew the doctrine of silence is golden, as for wang Yun Feng,
it’s not that he didn’t want to tell her, rather he didn’t dare to tell her (┬＿┬)
Juan Shu
roaned in pain on behalf of his master: “Don’t tell me you’ll let
thea scene like this? Maybe one day she’ll realise,
and she won’t ed an arena for
a martial arts competition
to invite a groom…”
wang Yun
Feng paused: “No one without soenuine skill can beat her”
“Maybe, the
reater martial arts than her”
“Then what
is the point of her having a room?”
“To compete
based on who can take thewas surprised for a
moment, Juan Shu continued: “a ,
good at enduring, and will live long The important is, he would see, hear and
obey the mistress docile and obedient, thus if they travel and there is murder
and arson or disaster she could lend an essential Twenty-four Filial Exemplars of a husband!”
With a `ka`,
the tea cup, cracked
Juan Shu
had originally co to have a lenient
mind, he didn’t expect in the end his master would on the contrary become even more
anxious, not only did he shatter the tea cup, he also accidentally torn <see the=””></see>< p=””>
Secrets of the Heart>, <coax a=”” wife=””> such books, from time
to tier rolled on in waves from his expression, from time to time his
heart palpitated orried, occasionally helplessly confused, a thousand
miles difference between his icy expression in court
By the
second day, when thenu only had one
expression ---- cold as ice
On the
third day, the crow, Juan Shu kept on reporting on the battlefield situation,
was hit by wang Yun Feng with a brush forcing him out
On the
fourth day, Bai Yan sat by the ang Yun Feng’s study, cracking melon
seeds with his teeth as he gave a live relay: “The mistress’ fame is
unrivalled, now even officials from other areas have specially dispatched
people to deliver portraits, for ue`,
fifth rank official isn’t a drea
strongly” `Bang`, the ink stone broke through theand went outside
On the
fifth day, Bai Zi with a face filled orry sat on the rooftop gru to
Hei Zi:
“The newly-appointed martial arts leader is too repulsive, he actually
dared to ask the rooms,
whoever beats the mistress will marry her”
Hei Zi:
“What has ato do with
you?”
“I need to
take the initiative for my master”
“You are no
match for him”
“I know I’m
just angry that you clearly saw the other person beat me, yet you looked on without
lifting a finger”
“You need to
take the initiative for your master, I don’t need to support you on behalf of
uished and elegant, an
air of righteousness, and has professional success, he would be so good with my
mistress”
“You don’t
understand anything, if the lady marries the martial arts leader I will be
unable to be with you”
Hei Zi with
great alarm said: “Who said I wanted to be with you?”
Bai Zi
angrily said: “You want to abandon your wife?”
Hei Zi fell
back: “You are not my wife”
Bai Zi pursued:
“You can’t love them and leave them!”
On the
sixth day, wang Yun Feng looking thin floated out of the study, flinging his
completely empty sleeves, with a solemn expression he walked to the hall, just
after Xia Ling Mei had sat down, he sat his bottom down firmly on the other
