Chapter 56: The Toilet Crisis (1/2)

Seeing Bai Lianhua’s unhappy expression, Qing Xin’s heart felt uncomfortable. She recalled what she heard Young Master Jun and Bai gongzi talk about today and bit her teeth. She thought things over with conflicted feelings in her heart, but in the end her heart still leaned towards Bai Lianhua. She said, “There’s something wrong with Li Xueyi!”

Bai Lianhua thought she was talking about the matter of Tang Doudou and Baili Yu being homosexual so she didn’t pay much attention and casually replied, “I know. Alright, that’s enough. Let’s stop talking about this. Look at my makeup, are there any problems with it? There’s quite a few people coming today and many of them are here for Baili gege. This makeup was designed by a highly skilled cosmetologist that I had specially sought out. Hopefully it will make Baili gege take an additional look!”

She knew?

Qing Xin was initially surprised but then deduced that Bai gongzi must have told her and didn’t say anything else. She examined the makeup carefully, nodding with satisfaction as she looked at her beautiful as a flower face. “Miss Bai’s makeup will definitely enchant Master!”

Hearing this, Bai Lianhua’s heart finally felt a little better. Lifting up her handkerchief, she said, “It’s already quite late, let’s head over.”

On the other side, Tang Doudou had already gotten to the rumored plum sea.

She was completely stunned, having never seen such a wonderful scenery before. The plum sea that stretched as far as the eye could see was like the white snow that spilled down from the skies. It blanketed the entirety of the skies and the ground, and also merged with that blue sky in the horizon. It was truly even more beautiful than scenes on picture scrolls.

That fresh and clean fragrance of plums swept over, carried by the wind as it roused people’s minds.

Scattered plum blossom petals fluttered in the wind like a dream or a fantasy scene. Tang Doudou was wearing a white robe as she treaded out from the dark bamboo forest and felt as if she was entering the realm of dreams. For a moment, she even forgot that she needed to go to the restroom.

After a long while, her stomach finally transmitted a sharp pang of pain and she slapped her head. Let’s find a restroom first!

She can come back to slowly appreciate the scenery after she took care of it. However, she couldn’t help but sigh again regarding how Baili Yu seriously knew how to freaking live lavishly way too much. There’s a plum sea, peach sea, lotus sea… Corresponding to the three seasons of winter, spring, and summer. Then, could it be that in autumn he looks at a chrysanthemum sea?T/N

Pfff!

Imagining that scene, Tang Doudou gave a nefarious snigger. Hehe, as expected, extraordinary people had extraordinary interests.

Tsk tsk…

Cough, better find a restroom first!

Retrieving her thoughts, Tang Doudou wandered about in the plum sea till she saw a small river appear ahead. After she walked along the river for a while, she saw a row of little wooden houses.

When she saw those simple yet still beautiful wood houses, Tang Doudou immediately knew that she found the right place.

This was probably the place where those gardeners lived.

Thus, she hurriedly walked towards the wood houses. Outside the houses, there were quite a few women and children laughing and playing merrily. The clothes that were hung up in the courtyard to dry had quite a lot of plum petals on them. There was a little kid that was twirling the flower petals off the clothes. He had good eyes and immediately saw the Tang Doudou that was heading this way and hurriedly turned back to shout towards those adults, “Mother, there’s a celestial jiejie heading this way.”

Hearing this, the woman that was gossiping shot him a rebuking look and laughed as she scolded, “Where in the world would a celestial come from? You don’t know anything, so don’t talk nonsense!”

The little child became unhappy and pouted as he pointed his chubby little hand ahead, “There, if that’s not a celestial then what is it?”

Seeing that he didn’t seem to be just kicking up noise for fun, everyone directed their eyes over.

And ended up really seeing a celestial-like person walk over amid the plum sea that fluttered in dance across the sky. His white robe floated slightly and his black hair danced in the wind. His brows and eyes were like that of a painting, his aura quiet and exquisite as the moon and his pair of clear pupils were especially captivating.

Seeing the person that came, the same question arose in everyone’s minds. Could it really be a celestial?

But then they immediately rejected this thought. Today was the Plum Garden Gathering. As with previous years, there were a lot of handsome and talented youths as well as gorgeous young women that arrived. With that many people, there’s bound to be one or two celestial-like people.

Not to mention, they’ve all seen Master before. That is a person even more celestial than celestials ah!

When she thought about Master, that missus immediately snapped back to her senses. Based on this person’s temperament, he was probably Master’s friend. This was different from other guests, so she immediately went up.

Tang Doudou saw that someone came out and increased her pace further.

In a few moments, she arrived at the front of that courtyard and politely asked the missus that came to welcome her, “Excuse me, Big Sister, is there a toilet here?”

The missus didn’t think that the person would be this straightforward, but it was a pity because the missus didn’t understand what he was asking about. The missus was blank for a moment, then asked, “What’s a toilet?”

“Eh…” Tang Doudou slapped her head. How did she forget this? “It’s latrine, latrine! Is there a latrine?”

Heavens, after holding it in for so long, she’s already reaching her limit ah! Even she was impressed with herself.

“Oh!” Only then did that missus suddenly understand. So it turns out he was looking for a latrine. Seeing his impatient appearance, she guessed that he probably ate something bad and had upset his stomach, so she hurriedly moved out of the way and pointed towards a small shed next to the wood houses. “That’s the latrine, gongzi…”

She hadn’t even finished speaking when Tang Doudou turned into a gust and ran to the latrine in a blink. Pushing open the door, she got in and shut the door, then expelled a breath in relief.

Leaving behind an entire courtyard of wide-eyed people with their jaws dropped. Wasn’t this speed a little too fast?

And the little kid that was picking off the petals pouted and muttered, “Uses the latrine, she’s not a celestial ah!”

His face was filled with sadness at not having seen a celestial.
