Chapter 78 : Storm (1)

When they played chess, Yuxi always deliberately lost to Yuchen, because she did not want to grab the limelight from Yuchen, and also, she did not want to be noticed by too many people. However, if she let Yurong won, a student who only learned it for half a month won against a student who had learned chess for five years, then she would become a joke in the residence. Therefore, to keep this appearance, she made Yurong lost quite badly.

Even though Yurong lost in this match, she didn’t take any offence, as she only learned chess for half a month, while Yuxi had studied it for five years. Even if she lost miserably, this could still be considered normal, “Fourth Sister, please explain it to me!”

Yuxi was totally at a loss, “What’s there to explain?”

When Yuxi heard Yurong asking her to explain every chess moved she made, she frankly said, “If you play more, you will know how to do it. Where will there be any trick to play it?”

Yurong was somewhat frustrated and simply said, “Then Fourth Sister, I will not learn chess for the time being, so you can teach me embroidery instead!” In her eyes, Yuxi could only be considered good in embroidery.

Yuxi displayed her good-natured look, “As long as you do not find it to be too boring, it’s certainly won’t be a problem for me.” She did not mind teaching Yurong embroidery. Learning embroidery was actually no different than practicing calligraphy. It required not only a guidance from a famous teacher but also patience and perseverance. Otherwise, no matter how good one’s talent was, without them, it would never be considered good.

Yurong began to learn the needlework. Then, she listened to Yuxi talking about how to distribute the threads or something alike. However, after listening for 3 minutes, she interrupted Yuxi’s words, “Fourth Sister, I already know about these things. You should teach me how to do double-sided embroidery instead.”

Yuxi felt funny that Yurong’s view was really that high. She couldn’t even embroider a flower yet, but already wanted to do a . Yuxi wondered, why did she, in her previous life, feel Yurong was pure and lovable, and also quite a charming person? “Okay. But when I do double-sided embroidery, I will be doing it very slowly, so I hope you won’t be too bored.”

Yurong naturally, didn’t object.

Yuxi had already embroidered one side of her embroidery screen, but after sometimes, her embroidery had not yet reached even one third of the screen. What she had said to Yurong was not an excuse. She really had a lot of things to do every day. She could only spare half an hour to embroider, so, for her to actually finish a piece of embroidery would be like seeing a snail moved.

Zisu and Kufu acted very fast as they brought out the embroidery frame and needlework tools. Yuxi sat in front of the embroidery frame and began to embroider.

Yurong looked at Yuxi embroidering for a quarter of an hour and then complained, “Fourth Sister, you have to explain it to me! If you’re too engross in embroidering, how can I learn?”

Yuxi looked up at Yurong and responded, “It’s the same like doing usual embroidery work!”

When Yurong heard Yuxi’s response, she felt really dissatisfied, “How can it be the same? If it is the same, then the double-sided embroidery cannot be compared to the vegetable radish in the street market, right?”

Yuxi helplessly asked, “How do you want me to teach you then?”

Yurong really felt that Yuxi was hopelessly foolish, “You tell me how you embroider a double-sided embroidery.”

Yuxi still told her the words that hold the same meaning of her previous words, “I just embroidered like you just saw it!” Seeing Yurong’s irritated look, she was so fired up that she said, “Fifth Sister, this kind of embroidery requires understanding and talent. I have talent in embroidery, so I can figure out the key behind double-sided embroidery. If there is no talent, even if the craft is good, the embroidery lady will surely won’t teach double-sided embroidery.”

When Yurong listened to these, her face turned black as ink, and from Yuxi’s words, they clearly claimed that she had neither understanding nor talent. All this time, she had looked down at Yuxi, but now, she had been sneered by her. This was something that she couldn’t swallowed in any kind of circumstances. She then smiled and said, “I don’t have an understanding and talent? Who in this residence don’t know that Fourth Sister had been studying with Teacher Song for five years and even though you have worked hard and practiced hard, you will never be comparable to Third Sister. You also used Third Sister’s goodness to learn from Teacher Song.”

Yuxi pulled a long face and stood up. Then, she coldly asked Yurong, “Since you don’t respect me, why did you come over and beg me to teach you?”

No one had ever talked to Yurong harshly since she was a kid. As she looked at Yuxi’s expression right now, she hatefully spoke back, “Beg you? You think too highly of yourself. If my mother had not force me, you thought I would be willing to come here? I’m also worried that I have become stupid just from learning with you.”

The faces of the maids and old woman servants in the Rose Courtyard immediately changed. Even the face of the maid beside Yurong, Lu Shan, was not looking good. When they were still in Hebei, Master and Madam had extremely spoiled her Miss. Even both Young Masters also conceded a lot to her. Because of these, all the people in the manor became very obedient to her Miss. But right now, they were not in Hebei! She didn’t know how to wind up this mess brought up by her Miss.

Yuxi was full of anger that she trembled. She then pointed at Yurong, “Get out. Immediately get out.”

Yurong also became angry herself. Yuxi even dared to chase her out. Since this was first time for her, she answered back, “You think I want to come to your shabby place.”

Yuxi screamed, “Get lost!”

When Yurong heard Yuxi actually told her to get lost, she was so angry that her mouth started to blab, “Who are you to even dare to ask me to get lost? Well, since it was a shameless woman who gave birth…”

Even before Yurong could complete her sentence, she could feel her face was burning painfully. When she started to react, she was slapped again by Yuxi. She wished she could rush forward to get to a public venue so everyone could see this. Unfortunately, she was stopped by Zisu and others. She said ferociously, “You dare to hit me?”

Yuxi didn’t have any memory of her late mother. But, no matter how unfamiliar she was with her, she was determined that no one could insult her mother. “Still not going to get out? If you don’t get out of this courtyard today, you want to be slapped by me some more?” If it wasn’t for Yurong’s maid stood in front of her, Yuxi would have gotten closer to Yurong, and continued to give her the taste of her palm.

When Yurong looked at Yuxi’s eyes, she felt so scared. She then cried and ran out of Rose Courtyard.

The maids and old women servants of Rose Courtyard looked at Yuxi, who was standing still in the middle of the yard. No one dared to breathe in this heavy atmosphere, for fear that they would only bring disaster upon themselves.

Yurong ran to find Wu Shi. While she cried, she told Wu Shi with added oil and vinegar (Chinese idiom : adding details to a story) about what Yuxi had done. However, she hid the misconduct that she had just made. She had not yet stopped crying heavily as she complained, “Mother, Fourth Sister even dare chased me out? Mother, you must decide this matter for me.” From when she was a child till now, let alone a slap in the face, no one had even dared to touch a strand of her hair. This time, she must let Yuxi paid the price for being the first person who did it.

When Mama Chen went to Rose Courtyard, Yuxi was still standing motionless in the yard.

Yuxi heard Mama Chen asking her to go to Biteng Courtyard. She faintly answered, “Let’s go!” She had long guessed that Yurong would go back and complained. With Wu Shi’s temperament, how could she tolerated seeing Yurong being humiliated. This time, when Yuxi went to Biteng Courtyard, she would surely run into a lot of trouble.

Zisu hurriedly moved forward, “Miss, I will go with you.” If those people of Biteng Courtyard dared to touch her Miss, she certainly would not keep her hand by her side.

Yuxi’s expression remained unchanged as she replied, “You don’t have to go, but Kufu will go with me.” After that, she took Kufu, and left with Mama Chen.

Mai Dong was very worried. Because of that troublemaker acted just now, Third Madam had sent someone to called her Miss away. At first glance, she knew that it would not end in a good way, “Sister Zisu, what should we do now?”

Zisu did not believe that her Miss was a reckless person. Though, her Miss was acting somewhat strange today. After thinking about it, she instructed, “You go find Eldest Madam and I am going to find Third Miss.” In this residence, Wu Shi did not have the final say.

As soon as Yuxi stepped into Biteng Courtyard, she could hear the sound of someone crying. She didn’t need to think as she knew that it was the sound of Yurong crying. Thinking about what had happened just now, Yuxi felt a little funny. She just let the maids of Shuixiang Courtyard deliberately said in front of Yurong that she was a foolish and awkward person. They also said that apart from embroidering, she didn’t have any other good points. She did not expect Yurong would believe it completely and even dared to step on her.

When she already stepped into the Biteng Courtyard, she saw Wu Shi holding a sad, crying Yurong, while Qiu Yanfu, who was beside her, tried to comfort her. Since Yuxi had repeatedly attacked Qiu Yanfu before, it had caused several female Masters of the state residence to dislike her. Because of that, nowadays, Qiu Yanfu was not as popular as she was before. At least, Qiu Shi and Yuchen still hated her very much. As for the attitude of the Old Madam, Yuxi could not yet figured out.

When Wu Shi saw Yu Xi, there were fires in her eyes. She asked, “If your sister doesn’t want learn for a while, you can teach patiently. If you don’t want to teach, you can just directly tell me, then I won’t force you to teach. But why do you want to insult her too? And even dare to beat her?”

Yuxi replied in a cold voice, “Did you ask your good daughter the reason why I beat her?”

The root of Wu Shi’s teeth itched with hate, “Even if your sister said something wrong, could you just directly beat her?” She was forced to suppress her anger. If according to her original temper, Yuxi would have been beaten till she couldn’t get up.

Yuxi said with a cold face, “My only regret is not being able to hit her two big ears too.”

Most Misses from General Wu’s family have violent tempers. When Wu Shi saw Yuxi did not apologise but acting sarcastic instead, the more angrier she got. She pointed to Yuxi with her eyes were full of anger, “You try to say that again?”

Qiu Yanfu could see that something was not right, but she was busy consoling Wu Shi. She then said to Yuxi, “Fourth Cousin, Fifth Sister has a poor foundation and a slow learner, but you should not say that she is stupid. Fourth Cousin, I know that you must have been anxious, so you said the wrong thing. If you apologise to Fifth Sister instead, this matter will surely be over.”

Yuxi’s face gave out a sneer, “Do you have any say in this? You don’t look at yourself, so don’t you know what kind of person you are? However, you want to borrow the name of the state residence to climb higher branch like we are your plaything. Also, don’t you dare come to me acting friendly like you are my actual female cousin.” She had deep resentment and hatred towards Qiu Yanfu, so she didn’t miss any chance to strike at her.

Wu Shi could no longer suppress the anger in her heart. She grabbed a teacup at hand and threw it toward Yuxi. It happened that the teacup smashed onto Yuxi’s face. Then, the teacup fell to the ground and smashed to pieces, while the tea that ran down Yuxi’s face resembled a stream of water, which dampen a huge part of her clothes.

Wu Shi’s side stewardess was so shocked. She did not expect Wu Shi would be so angry that she lost her sense of proportion. It would be terrible if this was made known to the Old Madam.

What Wu Shi’s just did was not actually an accident. One was that she already had a hot temper. She had developed this temper at home and after she got married, she occasionally exercised some restraint. However, once she got angry, she would loose her mind and resumed her original mould. Second, she herself had not yet changed her attitude according to her real status in the residence since she was used to be a master in Hebei. It was also common thing for her to punish and beat her servants. The third reason was because, Han Jingyan had never put Yuxi in his eyes. Out of these three points, the last point was the key. If Yuxi was replaced with Yuchen, Wu Shi would not dare to act like this. To put it bluntly, this act was nothing more than an act of soft persimmons that people chose to squeeze (Chinese idiom : it’s the weak people who always get picked on).
