Chapter 8 (2/2)

Ignoring Cui Mama's deep in thought's looks, Yu Ling Long went straight to the point and said: ”If you've got anything to say, spit it out.”

She is curious to know, after what had happened yesterday night and this morning, how does Madam Mu intend to deal with her?

Cui Mama came out from her thoughts, the smile on her face had unconsciously gave a feeling of hypocritical respect: ”It was Madam who sent me here to see the Fourth Miss, you had already spent a few days living in the Courtyard, are you enjoying your stay here?”

Hearing this, Yu Ling Long slightly narrowed her eyes, inside her bright eyes, what leaked out was a feeling of coldness.

Before provoking Madam Mu, she had already thought about the possible outcomes, Madam Mu would send Cui Mama to send her regards, it may seem that she wanted to oblige me, appease myself, this wasn't out of her predictions, it's just only that, she did not expect Madam Mu could put down lower dignity to no limits, yesterday night when she tried to harm her life, yet today she could still shamelessly ”Care” for me.

Could it be that this was trending in the ancient age, what you had done before, just by changing att.i.tude could actually shamelessly make it as if it never happened before? If it was really like this, Yu Ling Long feels that the life of the ancient age is really interesting, it's really d.a.m.n interesting.

Seeing the smile on Cui Mama's face, Yu Ling Long couldn't help but sneer, since they have shown so much ”concern” over her, she doesn't need to be so polite anymore.

”To tell the truth, I'm not enjoying my life here.” Yu Ling Long looked at the ragged furnis.h.i.+ngs around her, hinting Cui Mama, ”Are you blind? Can't you see what kind of s.h.i.tty place I'm living in?”

It was as if Cui Mama did not understand the hidden meaning of ridicule in Yu Ling Long's tone, still smiling as before: ”Please don't be mad, Fourth Miss. Your return was too sudden, Madam couldn't prepare a proper room for you in time, that's why she couldn't serve you properly, we hope Fourth Miss can understand.”

Although she said politely, Cui Mama was secretly biting her teeth, who does she think she is? Due to Cui Mama's status in the courtyard, even the other misbegotten ladies would respect her, yet this Yu Ling Long straightforwardly takes her as a lowly servant, ordering her around, this makes Cui Mama who had felt good at herself to feel uncomfortable, she had also secretly made up her mind that she would let this woman who doesn't know how to respect others to suffer more before her last breath, then can she only satisfy her deep hatred for her.

After hearing Cui Mama's reasoning, it doesn't seem that Yu Ling Long intended to forgive her at all, instead she pressures her even harder: ”What about now? Such a big mansion, there couldn't possibly no place for me to stay at all, could it?”

Cui Mama froze, she was just here to test Yu Ling Long, who knew she had trapped herself in this mess, she is just a servant, and how could she possibly have the authority of arranging a place for Yu Ling Long? If she answers that the arrangement is not complete yet, it would be like hitting herself in the face. She had mentioned that Madam had sent her here to send her regards, if such a small matter couldn't be handled well, would it be due to Madam's negligence, or because of herself? Cui Mama feels as if she's a rat suffocating in a box, being in a bind.

Cui Mama's face was white and red, ”Please be patient Fourth Miss, I shall return to Madam, giving you a proper explanation as soon as possible” she said while biting her teeth.

Yu Ling Long raised her teacups leisurely, giving the signal to see the visitor out: ”Do it fast, there's a limit to my patience, if there isn't a proper arrangement tonight, I'm afraid l will have to use my old methods again.”

Cui Mama was frightened, old methods? Yu Ling Long had stolen Madam Mu's meal, now she wants to steal Madam Mu's place to live?!

Remembering about the servant's swollen faces in the Courtyard, Cui Mama is very sure, that if Yu Ling Long were to continue using violence, no one in this Courtyard would be a match for her, if she doesn't prepare a proper place for her to live, she is afraid that Madam Mu really wouldn't have a place to stay tonight.
