Translator: NovelMultiverse | Editor: NovelMultiverse
In the blink of an eye, it was the day to go to the Changting Hou Mansion for a banquet. Early in the morning, a servant from the Yu Mansion pa.s.sed on Mu s.h.i.+’s words: “The lady said that a carriage has been arranged for the Fourth lady. Please go there as soon as possible.”
After all, Yu Linglong’s going out represented the face of the Yu house. Even if Mu s.h.i.+ was reluctant, she still had to do enough for the sake of their reputation.
Xuan Cao and Ling’er both tormented Yu Linglong all morning and finally dressed her up. Yu Linglong looked at her reflection in the mirror. She saw herself with her long hair falling like a waterfall, eyebrows like faint smoke, a beautiful nose, reddish cheeks, two-petaled cherry lips, a white smiley face crystal clear as jade, and smooth skin like ice and snow, reflecting a pair of cold eyes, glowing like bright and brilliant stars.
Even Ling’er, who has been silent for a few days, couldn’t help but exclaim: “Miss is really an outstanding beauty.”
Yu Linglong got up, and the rose-red satin robe embroidered with gold thread slowly unfolded on her body, adding a bit of n.o.ble temperament to the face that had just faded from childishness the was impossible to look away from.
Xuan Cao had been busy all morning, but at the moment she was full of excitement: “Miss, it’s almost time. Let’s go.”
Yu Linglong helped place the gilded magpie bead flower on her head. She was not used to it. Such a complicated dress and jewelry were really c.u.mbersome.
After adjusting her sleeves, Yu Linglong sighed, “Let’s go.”
Since she wanted to live a good life in ancient times, but she still had to work hard to get used to some things.
After going out of the second door, she saw a group of maids standing outside. Seeing Yu Linglong coming out, one knelt down and said respectfully, “I’m Baoliang’s girl, I pay my respects to the fourth lady.”
Yu Linglong was a little puzzled. Xuan Cao hurriedly whispered in her ear: “These are all arranged by the lady of the house for you, to accompany the people who go out.”
Yu Linglong smiled slightly. It seemed that Mu s.h.i.+ was finally starting to take a serious look at herself now. The pomp that these big ladies have has been properly arranged for Yu Linglong.
“Get up everyone,” Yu Linglong said faintly with her lips opening slightly.
Baoliang’s girl and the others stood up, but they all lowered their heads in awe. They didn’t even dare to take a look at the incomparable Fourth Lady who beat her father and scolded her mother in the legend, for fear that they would accidentally annoy the master and be unlucky.
Yu Linglong went straight out. Everyone hurriedly followed in a group of more than a dozen people, but all of them did not even dare to gasp.
When they reached the gate, there was a green carriage parked at the door. Xuan Cao gave Baoliang’s girl her bag, and stepped forward and helped Yu Linglong to get into the car: “Miss, slow down.”[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]
Yu Linglong lifted her skirt and slowly got into the car. She seemed to have never had this feeling of being held for a long time.
Looking back at the gate of General Yu’s Mansion, Yu Linglong sneered slightly and entered the carriage.
The coachman whispered and drove outside. Xuan Cao sat next to him with her baggage in her arms, with a look of expectation with some anxiety: “Miss, is Changting Hou Mansion very big? Will Madam Hou be fierce?”
Yu Linglong couldn’t help but chuckle: “Are you scared?”
Xuan Cao shook her head desperately: “Don’t be afraid! I will be with you, don’t be afraid of anything!”
What are you afraid of? This lady is very powerful!
Yu Linglong nodded, stopped talking, and closed her eyes to refresh herself.
