The Virgin Mary in the Book: I Decide My Life with Two Swords

Chapter 174 Turn Back at the Right Time

Cang Yue Kingdom - Quezhou - Noble House

Ye Ling braved the midday sun and came to the rooftop. She looked at Su Su and said, "Auntie, it's too hot. Aren't you afraid of getting tanned? How about we go to my room to chat? Or take a nap together?"

Su Su turned his head with red eyes, pursed lips, and said nothing.

Ye Ling was helpless and could only pretend: "Oh~ My wound hurts when it sees the sun..."

"Then hurry down!" Su Su immediately stood up and helped Ye Ling leave the rooftop.

A moment later, the two girls were lying on the same bed. Su Su was sleeping inside, hugging Ye Ling's arm. "Sister, do you know why Brother Mo pursued me for two years before I agreed to marry him?"

"I roughly guessed it, because of Yuan Jialin?" Ye Ling lay flat.

"Yes, I did often go to my grandfather's house, sometimes staying for several months. My cousin was very good to me, as was my aunt. My cousin said that when I grew up, he would marry me and love only me. I believed him, but at the beginning of last year, news suddenly came that he was getting married and taking a concubine. At first I thought it was a rumor, but then in June, I went there and found out it was true. The woman was already three months pregnant.

My cousin was still the same, treating me as nicely as ever, as if nothing had happened. He still wanted to marry me, and my aunt did the same, saying that I would be their daughter-in-law and the main wife. I suddenly wanted to laugh at that moment, and I didn't feel sad at all.

I remember that day was sunny. My grandmother, my aunt, my cousin, and his concubine were sitting in the pavilion. I was standing outside, watching them having so much fun. My grandmother waved me over and said that next year, Susu, you could marry into the family. By then, you two must live in harmony and expand the Yuan family. Don't listen to your grandfather and that Feng Qingyang arranging a marriage for you. That Mo Yufeng, an orphan, doesn't know how our family background is better. It was your mother's last wish that you marry into the family."

At this point, Su Su was already crying uncontrollably, and Ye Ling was listening quietly.

Su Su paused for a moment and then continued, "I looked at my cousin at the time, and he was also smiling and saying, 'Grandma, don't worry, Su Su is the most obedient, she won't agree to marry anyone else.

My cousin's concubine looked at me with contempt and didn't take me seriously at all.

At that moment, I felt so humble, like I was just surviving. I even hated my mother. She was dead, but she still made me jump into the fire. Just imagine how much she hated me as a daughter. She had to suffer the same pain she had suffered, so she had to suffer on me.

Ye Ling patted Su Su's back gently: "Don't cry, it's all over, isn't it?"

Su Su sobbed, "On that day, at that moment, I thought of turning back. I felt it was still in time. The moment I turned around, I saw Brother Mo. He was standing not far away, smiling at me. I knew it was not too late to turn back this time, so I trotted all the way and threw myself into his arms. Grandfather didn't lie to me. Brother Mo is the man who makes me feel safe. I have found my home."

"You made the right choice. I can guarantee that my senior brother is definitely not the kind of person who changes his mind frequently. He will always love you and protect you for the rest of his life," Ye Ling said.

"I know. Ever since that day, I've discovered I can live as I please, because no matter what I say, Brother Mo will always say: Okay, I'll listen to you. You're just naughty. I feel so happy, and I know what it feels like to be loved. Anytime I need him, he'll appear, sheltering me from the wind and rain, so that I no longer have to live in fear and sleep in the open air."

"Isn't that great? Why are you still crying?"

"Why is he so annoying that he comes looking for me? He even pretends to care about me. There were outsiders here last night, and I gave him a lot of face. But today he still won't leave, and he keeps saying nonsense in front of you. When I go back to my room, he follows me in and keeps saying all kinds of bad things about Brother Mo."

"Don't cry, listen to me, I will make him leave obediently. And you, sleep with me for the next two days, okay?"

"it is good"

Ye Ling smiled slightly: "That's right! Senior Brother is not here, I will protect you, we can have a good sleep and have fun tonight. No matter what happens tomorrow, just live well today."

"Yeah yeah" Su Su was easy to coax and stopped crying immediately.

The midday sun was very strong, but the front and back windows of Ye Ling's room were open, so the room was well ventilated and cool, and the two girls fell asleep quietly.

At this quiet and pleasant moment, a man came in from the city gate. He had a face full of stubble and was riding a tall horse.

Black Hawk watched quietly from the rooftop beside the street, then curled his lips slightly, turned around and flew away.

Night fell quickly, Ye Ling was still in a daze lying on the bed, while Su Su had already started dressing herself up, sitting in front of the dressing table and admiring herself.

Black Hawk suddenly flew in through the window, scaring Su Su so much that she jumped onto the bed at lightning speed: "Sister, there are bad guys."

Ye Ling stood up helplessly: "What are you doing here again?"

"He's here, alone, you better be careful," Black Hawk said and turned around to go back the same way.

"You're sick!" Ye Ling cursed and prepared to get up, thinking to himself: What a close call, Jinniang came yesterday and Yao Qi arrived today, but I didn't expect him to come alone. If I had known, I wouldn't have had to try to hook Jinniang.

"Master, Jiuyou said that Yao Qi's martial arts skills are not weak, and he probably can't beat him. Moreover, as the commander of a large army, he has strong anti-reconnaissance capabilities, so it is not easy to deal with him without anyone knowing," Mengmeng said.

"Sister, I'm going to the toilet first," Su Su said as she left. She was also well-behaved and didn't ask who the person who just came was.

Ye Ling quickly entered the space and asked Meng Meng to put on makeup for him.

"Senior Sister, I'd like to go out," Jiuyou said.

"Okay! Now that they're here, let's quickly deal with them and then hurry back to Langya Pavilion to prepare for Brother and Susu's wedding."

"Will Zhilan cause trouble?"

"Don't worry, she won't be able to get out of bed from today on, and won't ruin our plans."

The two of them quickly left the space, and Su Su came back surprised: "Brother Jiuyou, didn't you go out to do something?"

"Just got back," Jiuyou replied and walked straight out the door.

In the next room, Yuan Jialin looked at the person who pushed the door open and was a little confused: "Who are you? Who let you in?"

"Get out!" Jiuyou said coldly.

Yuan Jialin was slightly stunned: "Oh~ I know who you are, you are Mo Yufeng's junior brother Jiuyou, right? You are not..."

"Get out" Jiuyou was too lazy to listen to him.

"Why are you so arrogant? Let me tell you, even Mo Yufeng doesn't dare to be so arrogant with me, and you..." Yuan Jialin didn't dare to continue before he finished his words.

Because Jiuyou put the sword heavily on the table with a bang.

Yuan Jialin was scared, picked up his things, and went out cursing. In order to stay and persuade Su Su to go with him, he immediately went to find the manager of Guiren Pavilion and asked for a guest room.

Jun's lips curled slightly: "I'm so sorry, Master Yuan, our guest rooms are full."

"full?"

“Yes, business is good, it’s full.”

"Then... I can pay more, double? Triple is fine."

"I'm sorry, there's really no place to stay. We don't have many guest rooms in our building. After all, this is not an inn! They are all prepared for distinguished guests who come from afar. We really can't make room for you these two days." Jun Xi still kept smiling. Zhilan was sick, so he could only manage this store first.

"Okay," Yuan Jialin said angrily, "Then I won't stay here anymore. I...I want to listen to some music. Is there any?"

"Of course we have one. Would you like a private room, the corridor, or the first floor lobby?"

Yuan Jialin glanced at the table where Ye Ling and the others sat last night and pointed: "Right there, bring me some dishes and a pot of wine."

"I'm sorry, that seat was reserved by Ye Sishi. Our host said that it must be reserved for her whether Ye Sishi sits on it or not. You should find another place!" Jun couldn't help laughing.

"You..." Yuan Jialin nodded angrily. "Alright, she's the envoy, and I'm just a small captain in Langya Pavilion. A higher rank means more power than a higher position. So I want the table next to her, is that okay?"

"Of course. Come on, take Young Master Yuan to table number nine," said Jun Xi.

A girl came over and said, "Mr. Yuan, please come this way."

As they were talking, Ye Ling came out. She was wearing a sky blue men's suit today, and she looked so handsome that nothing could be said about it. "Captain Xi, are you busy?"

"Night Envoy" Jun politely bowed and asked, "What are you doing?"

"As usual, it's time to eat. Please ask someone to call Jinniang over. Also, send some food in for my junior brother. He's not sociable, and there's nothing I can do about it," said Ye Ling.

"I understand. Ye Sishi, please go and sit down first!"

"Okay, come on. By the way, your landlord is free, let him come over and we can play Pai Gow. It's not good to drink all the time!"

"No problem, the host is waiting for you, I'll go and arrange it right away"

"Wait a minute, I almost forgot. What about you? Send someone out to buy supplies. Remember, tell them that business is good and they're out of ingredients. The more the better. Buy more meat! I'm not kidding, go quickly."

Although Jun didn't understand what he meant, he nodded and said, "Okay, I'll have someone go buy it right away."

Xi Jun immediately told You Ming Lang about this. You Ming Lang understood after a brief thought: "It seems my guess was right. It turns out he is the one collaborating with the girl! Interesting, very interesting. Remember, once Yao Qi enters the Noble House, the city and streets will be immediately sealed off. Hurry and prepare."

"Yes, Ye Sishi also said to buy more meat."

Youminglang smiled gently and said, "Then buy more and satisfy the customer's needs. She has paid for it and she likes to eat meat."

"Yes, then you should go play Pai Gow." Jun was also very happy. His master had changed since he met Ye Ling and became more humane.

Ye Ling sat at table number eight and gave Yuan Jialin a provocative smile. His expression definitely showed that he was asking for a beating.

"La la la ~" Su Su revived with full health, walked over with a plate of dried fruits, and directly ignored Yuan Jialin at the next table: "Brother, eat some dried fruits."

"Why did you bring it out? Just let them serve another plate later," Ye Ling said.

“I love these.”

“I only like to eat meat”

“Haha, I know.”

"hey-hey…"

The two girls smiled sincerely.
