Chapter 14: Simply Blinding!
Yu Kangtai kept a straight face and spoke stiffly.
“I’ve taken care of the dowry for you. Shouldn’t you get all these animals out of here?”
But Yu Niaoniao was reluctant. She had paid for these chickens, ducks, pigs, and donkeys. They were very expensive!
She negotiated with Yu Kangtai.
“Father, do you think this is okay? The chickens, ducks, and pigs were sent to the kitchen, where the kitchen staff would keep an eye on them for the time being. Gray would be sent to the horse shed for the groom to take care of. When I get married, I’ll get someone to bring them to the royal residence.”
Yu Kangtai was in disbelief and questioned loudly, “You still want to take them to the Duke’s Mansion? Are you crazy?!”
He could not imagine the image of the murderous living King of Hell facing off against a pack of chickens, ducks, pigs, and donkeys. 2
It was simply blinding!
“You might not know this, but Duke Lang once gave me a sum of money. I used his money to buy these animals. If I throw them all away, wouldn’t I be wasting Duke Lang’s money? If Duke Lang finds out, he will definitely be angry.”
Yu Kangtai was even more shocked.
“That living King of Hell… No, Prince Lang actually gave you money? When did this happen? Why didn’t I know?”
Yu Niaoniao covered her mouth and chuckled, looking shy.
“This is a small secret between me and Prince Lang. Don’t tell anyone about it.”
Yu Niaoniao looked as if he were suffering from constipation. 4
Initially, he had some doubts about the authenticity of the matter between Yu Niaoniao and Prince Lang. Now, it seemed that he was the one who was being paranoid.
Duke Lang had begun to quietly give Yu Qianqian pocket money. How could the two of them not have anything going on?!
Considering Duke Lang’s authority, Yu Kangtai had no choice but to give in and tolerate Yu Niaoniao’s suggestion.
After leaving the Green Jade Residence, Mrs. Jiang couldn’t help but remind her softly.
“Aren’t you forgetting something?”
Yu Kangtai replied angrily, “What did I forget?”
Mrs. Jiang said, “Isn’t Niaoniao supposed to be recuperating at home? Why did she run out without even informing us?”
Yu Kangtai stopped abruptly. He had actually forgotten about this! He slapped his forehead in frustration. 1
“It’s all that brat’s fault. She made me so angry that I became muddle-headed.”
Mrs. Jiang said as she observed his expression.
“Niaoniao grew up in Bashu and didn’t learn any rules since she was young. It’s not her fault. But now her identity was different. She is the eldest daughter of the Yu family and is about to become the princess consort of Lang County. We can’t let her run around anymore, can we?”
Yu Kangtai frowned. “I would like to control her, but she always finds an opportunity to sneak out.”
Mrs. Jiang said, “This matter is indeed strange. There should be some secret passage. We have to get someone to search the residence, especially near the walls.”
Yu Kangtai immediately ordered his men to search the entire residence.
Soon the dog hole at the base of the wall was found and sealed with silt.
Yu Sheng returned from outside and noticed the commotion in the residence. He then asked someone.
“What happened at home?”
The servant recounted what had happened in the house from beginning to end.
Yu Sheng frowned when he heard that.
He bridled at the boldness of Yu Niaoniao’s words and actions, but said nothing. He walked away in silence.
In the Green Jade Residence.
Yu Niaoniao’s heart ached when she learned that the dog hole had been sealed.
That was her only way to freedom.
It was gone just like that!
How was she supposed to pick up the goods at the blacksmith’s shop?! 3
