The Heart Unchanged, All Things Solvable (3)

This matter was so similar to the incident two days ago that it made one can’t help but suspect, did Jing Wan offend some deity or something, for her to have gotten into an accident two days in a row?

“If this servant has to say, Miss has always been benevolent. In an important place of Buddhism, buddha naturally will watch over.” A servant girl to the side said.

However, at any other time, perhaps these words could still be considered good, but at present, saying such words was just inappropriate. After all, a lot of people had gotten injured, especially Sun Yi Jia, saying those words, wouldn’t it be like saying she’s normally a malicious person, otherwise why else would buddha give her such a cruel punishment like disfiguration? Not just one person coldly looked to her. That servant girl seemingly also came to realization and instantly went pale.

“That cliff is steep, to actually be able to not lose a single person, naturally is the buddha’s blessing.” Jing Wan said.

Grandmaster Liao Chen, rather, was still that stance and didn’t say much, only amiably smiling.

Luo Jing Bo once again sent him off.

Although Luo Old Madam was unbearably tired, she still repeatedly urged Jing Wan to go rest first.

“If grandmother doesn’t go rest first, how can this granddaughter rest at ease?”

Luo Old Madam was unable to change Jing Wan’s mind. However, right now, her heart was indeed back in its place, and her tensed nerves have also relaxed, feeling both weary and tired. And so she agreed, but she still didn’t forget to persistently remind the people at her side to regularly go see Yuan Qiao Qiao. Although she didn’t have any strong feelings between them, no matter what, that was still her own granddaughter (daughter’s daughter).

In the neighboring guest wing, Jing Wan nicely washed her face and rinsed her mouth once. The marks left on her back from Li Hong Yuan’s ‘night attack’ two days ago naturally were seen by the servant girls. However, Gong mama immediately commented, “How did you get this severely injured?” And the naive servant girls were easily fooled and had the already quite faded love bites on Jing Wan’s back mistakenly assumed as abrasions she got from falling off the cliff. Fortunately, the marks Li Hong Yuan left were scattered, else it wouldn’t have been easy to explain. Bruises weren’t dotted red marks after all. Thinking from this point, seemingly still needed to thank Li Hong Yuan?

Gong mama’s expression became even darker. The servant girls naturally thought that she was worried about Jing Wan’s injuries.

“Are the wounds on the back very serious? I actually don’t feel anything.”

Gong mama worried that if they were to continue like this, Jing Wan will have doubts, so she changed the subject.

The wound on Jing Wan’s neck was carefully and attentively tended to by Gong mama. However, during this process, Jing Wan kept feeling that Gong mama’s gaze was about to pierce through her neck, and she strangely felt somewhat intimidated.

“It’s fine mama, even if it’ll leave a scar, there’s really nothing to be concerned about.”

Gong mama can tell her, what she was concerned about wasn’t whether or not it’ll leave a scar, but rather the manner in how the wound was left. Think she was also easy to fool, huh?! “Indeed there’s really nothing to be concerned about.” That living Enma although was a scoundrel, he certainly wouldn’t because of a scar left on Miss’s body, grow to disdain her. And this was even caused by him. If in the future, he dares to have certain thoughts because of this, Gong mama might really have to beat him up. “Miss rest assured.”

Jing Wan couldn’t help but give Gong mama a glance. Why did the last few words sound so harsh? Seeing that she wasn’t any different from usual, Jing Wan kept feeling really strange. “Mama…..”

TN: All

“Miss plans to go see which of the three misses first?” With Gong mama’s understanding of her, if she doesn’t go check on their situation, she similarly can’t sleep peacefully.

Mama, this shift in subject is too abrupt. “Ying Shuang is still unconscious, let’s not go disturb for the time being. First go check on older cousin, ……then go see big sister Jia.” Actually, she still didn’t know how to face Sun Yi Jia.

When Jing Wan headed out, she just happened to come across Wu An Marquis Manor’s heir’s wife coming over. This one had just married, and had originally come to offer incense to thank the heavens, yet ended up encountering this kind of thing. Luckily, Fu Yun Ting was fine. If ended up becoming a newly-widowed, then that would be……

Wu An Marquis heir’s wife’s maiden family was the Wei family. At present, they don’t seem prominent, but it’s said that their ancestors were very illustrious. Wei-shi’s character was kind, and her personality was also rather straightforward. She’d also been long acquainted with Fu Yun Ting, and they were quite compatible. These days after marrying, they can be said to be in perfect harmony, intimate like honey. Originally, they came out in high-spirits, yet unexpectedly encountered this kind of thing. Although her husband didn’t get any injuries, the ruined mood naturally won’t easily come back. Seeing Jing Wan standing there perfectly fine, she finally relaxed a breath. Her husband, for an unfamiliar woman, feeling guilty and uneasy, even if knowing what had happened, her heart would still mind that tiny bit. But now, that little lump in his heart can be put down, and conversely, it’s the Luo family that owes him.

Don’t blame her for being ‘arrogant’, and don’t criticize her for ‘fussing over minor matters’ either. It’s really just that the Wu An Marquis Manor’s current situation is really terrible. As long as, it was something that will allow her to obtain in exchange a bit of something advantageous to the Wu An Marquis Manor, she didn’t mind ‘sacrificing her face’ at all. She was a woman and was more suited than a man for certain things. Meeting Jing Wan at this time, the smile on her face was exceedingly sincere, “For Miss Luo to be alright, really is just great.”

“To be able to be safe and sound, one needs to thank Fu-shizi[1].” Jing Wan first bowed to Wei-shi, a proper and orderly formal bow.

This time, it was Wei-shi that unexpectedly became somewhat embarrassed. She was only older than Jing Wan by three years. Although marrying at seventeen was somewhat late, but because she was a ‘old maid’, it also became one of the factors for her to have been able to marry Fu Yun Ting. The Wei family’s official post were also as military officials. In etiquette, they weren’t that fussy, but it wasn’t to the point where they didn’t know. Jing Wan’s bow was truly a bit too solemn. Even though she was indeed the Wu An Marquis Manor’s heir’s wife, but actually taking out that title, there really wouldn’t be that many people that would take her seriously, perhaps might even get mocked and ridiculed. She wasn’t too sure whether this Luo family’s Miss just knew how to conduct herself too well, or was just truly sincere and not pretentious. “You mustn’t, you mustn’t, quickly get up.”

The two sides exchanged a few words out of courtesy, and although there weren’t anything of substance, but when Wei-shi left, both parties were seemingly quite happy.

“With Wu An Marquis Manor’s situation like that, don’t know how this young madam’s future will be like.” Jing Wan sorrowfully sighed.

“Wu An Marquis Manor may not necessarily not have any changes, all depends on….”

Depends on whether or not Wu An Marquis Manor can endure till Le Cheng Emperor’s death, and depends on the next Emperor’s attitude towards the Wu An Marquis Manor. Jing Wan understood Gong mama’s unfinished words.

Actually, what Gong mama wanted to say was, ‘Depends on that living Enma’s intentions.’

The guest rooms that Yuan Qiao Qiao and the others are temporarily staying at were right next door, merely separated by a wall. However, Yuan Qiao Qiao had just happened to have taken the medicine and had fallen asleep again. Jing Wan only looked over her deathly pale sleeping face. Perhaps because she still hadn’t recovered from the fright, even if nerve-soothing medicine was used, she still didn’t sleep very peacefully, coughing from time to time. A lively and energetic young lady with distinct likes and dislikes now lied there just like that, and in the future, may even have a weak and illness-prone body…..

“Serve her well, if there’s anything you need, do not hesitate to come find me. When she wakes up, send someone to inform me.”

“Yes.” The people serving Yuan Qiao Qiao complied.

Zhou Ying Shuang also resided here. Jing Wan naturally went to go see and simply inquired about her circumstance. Afterwards, she headed towards where Sun Yi Jia was staying.

Ding Duke Manor also had their designated residence in the White Dragon Temple. When people of the Ding Duke Manor came, they generally all stayed there. It was a bit of a distance from where the Luo family was staying.

When she saw Sun Yi Jia, different from what Jing Wan had thought, Sun Yi Jia wasn’t lying on the bed, and didn’t have a lifeless and ruined at a stroke’s look. Rather, she was sitting facing the window, absentmindedly staring at the flowers in the yard. From Jing Wan’s angle, she actually couldn’t see the wound on her face, just like someone who’s completely fine. However, Sun Yi Lin was standing outside in silence, and Sun Yi Jia’s personal close servants were also very quiet. This situation was somewhat not right…..

[1] Shizi – Translated to heir to a nobility title; it in itself is also a proper title.
