Hi everyone, I´m back :D! Finally. Firstly, here I would like to, again, thank you all for the patience and also specially thank Karra for always helping me with correcting the text.
Due to exams I had practically no time for the translation, but since my exams are over now(THANK GOODNESS!) I can, at last, whole-heartedly dedicate myself to this hobby of mine.
P. S. Among my New Year´s resolutions are to be more productive (to manage translating at least four chapters a week) and slacking less (it will be a tough job not to) (￣▽￣)ノ........hopefully, I will be able accomplish both of them, so you could enjoy even more readings (**crossing fingers for myself**)
Following day, morning.
The birds on the tree were all crowing at the eighth prince´s mansion.
Shuang Yuan. People inside have already gotten up.
„It cannot be?!“
Early in the morning, a cry could be heard from the chamber.
As soon as Su Yuela walked to the door and learnt that only the two of them would return to Qu manor, she right away cried out.
„Yuela, can you not have such an intense relation? It´s me, who is returning to bridal home, not you.“ Qu Tang´er and Jing Xin were, on the contrary, calm. They have already prepared all the things they had to for the return.
„Tang´er, how come his highness is busy?“ Su Yuela pulled at Qu Tang´er, insisting to make heads or tails of the matter. The whole world knew that Mo Liancheng was the idlest among princes. Ignoring state affairs, spending every day trivially by composing and writing poems. It´s impossible to not be able to return to bridal home because of being busy.
„Uh-huh. When we come back, we will tell you details, alright?“ Alas. Misstep. Life´s misstep. Qu Tang´er was truly tangled about the matter of returning to Qu manor. She honestly wasn´t in mood to describe her meeting with Mo Liancheng yesterday.
„No. Say it now. I can´t wait till you return.“
„It´s not like I wouldn´t come back. You are saying it as if I won´t get out once I enter Qu manor.“
„It´s hard to say. Big madam will surely make things difficult for you.“ Su Yuela´s said with a serious face.
„Rest a.s.sured. I won´t die easily. Isn´t it just a bridal return? Wait for me. I will tell you and Xiao Wei later about interesting things that happened during my bridal return, so you can have fun.“ Qu Tang´er lightly patted Su Yuela´s shoulder. As to provide her a comfort. Heaven! She even had to comfort others now. Are they kidding her?
Suddenly, Su Yuela spoke: „Tang´er, be careful.“
„Don´t worry. After I go back, I will see what I can do. Uh-huh. Thinking about it carefully, it´s not just me and Jing Xin going-ah.“ Qu Tang´er said flatly.
„Huh? Who else?“ Yuela was puzzled. Could it be that his highness is truly busy, so he send someone else instead?
Unexpectedly, Qu Tang´er´s next sentence was enough to make her spat blood from anger.
„Hehe. There are also those porters-ah. The number of people is not small. There are as much as four porters and also guards. Since there are these people, even if I wanted to use this opportunity to flee, it just isn´t possible.“ After saying this, Qu Tang´er sneered at herself. These people, including those four porters are all from prince´s mannor. Housekeeper Zhou arranged them. He said that their purpose is also to protect her. To her, it sounded more like that they were there to monitor her.
„Are you–still like this? In mood to make fun of me?“
„Yeah-ah. Otherwise, what more do you want?“
„You and Jing Xin, plus four porters. Is it your so called many people?“ Su Yuela regretted iron didn´t become steel[1]!
„Yes-ah. There are four people, eight eyes, eight hands, is it still not many? I am even bothered that there are too many people. The best would be to walk there.“ The whole one day would be wasted on the road. This was her ideal solution.
„Tang´er!“ Su Yuela was about to flip out.
„Well, it´s almost time. Let´s have a good chat after I come back..... Jing Xin, did you take along my cloak?“ Qu Tang´er softly smiled. After Jing Xin said that she took it, she pulled at Jing Xin and without carrying about what more Su Yuela wanted to say, she directly rushed straight to the gate of prince´s mannor.
The person inside the chamber didn´t even have a time to react, their figures have already disappeared.
The gate of prince´s mannor
The sedan chair outside was already waiting for them.
Qu Tang´er and Jing Xin came outside. She unhurriedly got inside the sedan chair and instructed: „Let´s go. There´s no need to go too fast. Ben w.a.n.gfei wants to look at scenery on the street.“ Going from eighth prince´s manor to Qu mannor, although the road was not long, but their speed was not fast.
[1] it´s a proverb meaning either „to hold someone to a higher standard with the hope they will improve“ or „to expect better from someone.“
