Tyrannical Wang's Beloved Wife Chapter 144.1: Poetry Gathering, Double Fifth, Falling for a Trap

Chapter 144.1: Poetry Gathering, Double Fifth, Falling for a Trap

Luo Jing Ying’s complexion was deathly pale, not at all pretty. Wasn’t this just clearly pointing out that the clothes she meticulously picked out was less than any random one of Sun Yi Jia’s old clothes? At this moment, she really hated these two before her to death. “This younger sister rather forgot, third sister-in-law and third sister have very deep entanglements in fate, after all, even for men, you both………..”
‘Pah!’
“Ah—” Luo Jing Ying screamed out, “A lowly slave such as yourself dares to hit me?” Luo Jing Ying extended her hand, wanting to hit back.
But, one still needed to see who the opponent was. Gong mama seized her wrist at once, “This servant is just telling fourth miss, things can be carelessly eaten, but words can’t be carelessly said.”
“Rui Qinwang won’t let you off.” Luo Jing Ying cried out, very much a sheep in wolf’s clothing[1].
Gong mama let out a rare smile, “Rui Qinwang? Truly such great might. Fourth miss, do you know, sometimes, saying the wrong things won’t just be getting slapped, that simple, it might even ask for one’s life.”
Panic flashed across Luo Jing Ying’s eyes, “What do you want to do, let me tell you……….”
“Then this servant will also tell you, this is the Luo Manor, you’re still the Luo family’s fourth miss. Losing one’s purity before marriage, letting the family clan lose face, for you to still be alive right now, that is due to the old master and old madam’s benevolence. What made you think the one preserving your life is Rui Qinwang? The fox exploiting the tiger’s might, at least that fox still knows that one needs the tiger to be around for it to be effective. Right now, you are just a pitiful little bug with no one to rely on. What right do you have to make thoughtless remarks towards your older sister and sister-in-law here?”
Meeting Gong mama’s sharp gaze, never mind struggling, Luo Jing Ying even had a hard time breathing. Moreover, her losing her purity before marriage, this kind of thing, has it already become known to everyone? That narrow-minded and petty evil old hag of a grandmother! Just can’t stand seeing her be well at all? Must she have her reputation ruined to be happy?
Probably having a rare moment of cleverness, Luo Jing Ying casted her poison-filled gaze towards Jing Wan, “This is the good servant you raised, daring to offend one’s superior?”
Jing Wan smilingly looked to Luo Jing Ying, “Offend one’s superior? Which kind of superior are you considered? Even your own mother doesn’t take you seriously, yet you still want to let me, this sworn enemy since childhood, have you taken seriously?” Jing Wan gradually retracted her smile, “In reality, for you to still dare set foot in my courtyard, really is praiseworthy courage. Mama, have her thrown out for me.”
Since Jing Wan already issued the word, Gong mama naturally didn’t hesitate in the slightest, hauling Luo Jing Ying outward.
“Let go of me, you lowly servant, let go of me……….” Luo Jing Ying staggeringly followed behind Gong mama, her other hand clawing at Gong mama.
Gong mama came from the shadow guards, and moreover, her actual age was younger than her current appearance. As long as she was willing, having Luo Jing Ying lifted like a baby chick was all possible. That bit of resistance from Luo Jing Ying, in her eyes, was just like a little bug’s. As for Luo Jing Ying’s scratches, just by exerting a bit of strength with her hand, Luo Jing Ying screamed out again. Luo Jing Ying just felt the bones in her wrist were about to break.
(T/N: Remember around chapter 48ish it said that Gong mama actually can freely alter her outer appearance, she most likely made herself look older to fit the mama role better.)
Luo Jing Ying began loudly cursing, not only just Gong mama, but even Jing Wan was thoroughly cursed by her, but what she met with was naturally just an even crueler treatment from Gong mama. Afterwards, outside the Elegant Haitang Residence, Gong mama really just unhesitantly had the person ‘thrown’ out. Because in that instant, Luo Jing Ying’s entire body all left the ground.
Luo Jing Ying this time fell down rather miserably, but Gong mama had propriety, so it won’t be that serious. After all, Luo Jing Ying’s reaction earlier, she also saw. If by chance she really was pregnant, having an accident at miss’s place, it ultimately won’t be good for miss’s reputation. That’s right, she simply wasn’t worried about explaining to Rui Qinwang. In Gong mama’s eyes, even if something really did happen, it’s that living Enma’s job to take care of it. Having miss kept in the dark, if something happens, then it’s naturally his responsibility.
Sun Yi Jia looked in the direction of the courtyard entrance, “Completely unable to see clearly the state of affairs, even if she enters Rui Qinwang Manor, how long can she survive? Looking at her as a whole, she’s practically one with a broken brain.”
“Probably has delusional disorder.”
Although Sun Yi Jia didn’t know what kind of disease the so called delusional disorder was, but in this moment, she very miraculously understood instantly.
Jing Wan sometimes wondered, in the end, was Luo Jing Ying infatuated with Rui Qinwang, this person, or purely after his power and influence? Rui Qinwang, as a person, was also elegant and handsome, with the grace of a dragon and the disposition of a phoenix. And that face, among the princes, aside from Jin Qinwang, probably was also one of the best. But more importantly, his temperament was good, rumored to be gentle and refined, and moreover, towards Rui Wangfei, he was also very gentle and considerate. Under normal circumstances, for quite a few young ladies of the boudoir, this kind of man was actually a great killer weapon. If he has the intention to approach Luo Jing Ying, no, should say, as long as he has the intention to entice those young ladies of the boudoir, those that won’t be smitten by him should be in the minority. After all, those young ladies of the boudoir, even if they have an expert in ‘manor battles’ mother, and under their influence, learned how to excel in manor battles, but on the matters between men and women, majority were all blank. And if deliberately schemed against by someone like Rui Qinwang, this kind of experienced veteran in romance with outstanding conditions, these young girls most likely will be hooked in one shot.
Then, in that case, Luo Jing Ying should be infatuated with the power holding Rui Qinwang. If Rui Qinwang just had outstanding ‘outer conditions’[2], or empty with just a qinwang title, then it would be rather strange for Luo Jing Ying to voluntarily stick to him.
Luo Jing Ying clearly witnessed Jing Wan’s attitude, really not leaving any sentiments at all. Moreover, right now, she also wasn’t certain whether she was really pregnant with a child or not. If something unfortunate were to happen, wouldn’t she heartache to death. Thus, she also no longer dared to make a scene. “You lowly slave, quickly help this young miss up.”
But that servant girl just stared at her with pursed lips, entirely not having the intention of stepping forward. Because just now, she heard something incredible, fourth miss actually, actually……….for a young lady of a respectable family, she was actually this shameless, and even wanted to let her go lend her a hand, wouldn’t that dirty her hands? Moreover, this kind of thing, one misstep, and one will have to thrown in one’s life.
Luo Jing Ying waited for half a day, but in the end, just saw that servant girl looking to her as if she was looking at something dirty. Luo Jing Ying burned in anger, “Slut!” Seeing more and more people appearing nearby, Luo Jing Ying was incessantly ashamed and furious, enduring the pain as she got up. However, she just silently endured it and didn’t lash out at the little servant girl again. She also didn’t think of looking for someone to demand back justice for her. Her mother indeed didn’t take her seriously anymore, so who can she look for to demand justice for her. She clearly knew that Luo Jing Wan that slut had skin thicker than the city walls, yet how come she foolishly came looking for her?
Just that overflowing hatred was like millions of tiny ants devouring her heart, making her nearly go insane.
Luo Jing Ying looked to her wrist. It was both red and swollen, and moreover, an even deeper pain came from within. Just lightly moving her fingers all made her uncontrollably inhale a breath of cold air.
[1] Showing strength on the outside while weak on the inside; appearing fierce while cowardly at heart.
[2] Outer conditions basically mean things like good looks, good reputation, having good temper, etc.
T/N: I feel like I need to explain the usage of the term ‘slut’ before someone comments on this word again. I sorta assumed that people were aware but I guess not a lot of translators actually explain the usage. So it’s used to translate [贱人] which really just means lowly person, but in a derogatory way, basically saying that the person has a very low status. Slut isn’t a very accurate translation of the term, but it’s the most convenient and sorta works well in context, which is why most translators just end up translating it that way.
