After Kicking Over the Scumbag, the Whole City Wants to Marry Me

Chapter 29: The Bow is Broken



Chapter 29

Qingfeng showed real anger, and quickly knelt down, “This servant girl had already asked the young miss before combing her hair, but the young miss herself said—”

Gu Ying's eyes darkened, and she laughed angrily, “Is this how you serve people? You still dare to talk back to me? Is this what the Madam has personally trained? Today, even if I have to go to Grandmother, I can still argue my case!”

As she spoke, she wanted to drag her to Yongshou Hall for an explanation.

Qingfeng was so scared that she was stunned. This matter was not a big deal, but it was a big deal to lose face for the Marquis Manor right before the winter hunt.

If she really kicked up a fuss in front of the old Madam, she would definitely be sent back to her original place for being incompetent in her work, and would never be able to rise again.

She quickly shed tears and hugged Gu Ying's legs, crying loudly, “Second young miss, this servant knows she was wrong. This servant is not good at combing hair originally. Please forgive this servant just this once. This servant will definitely learn to comb beautiful hair for the young miss!”

Gu Ying felt cold in her heart. When Qingfeng hugged her, she thought of the things she did to her in her previous life, and was extremely disgusted.

She shook off her body with disgust, and kicked her away, “Let's do this. I'll give you a chance to redeem yourself. If you still can't comb well, after the winter hunt ends, I will send you back to the Madam and let her discipline you.”

As soon as Qingfeng heard this, a flash of resentment flashed in her lowered eyes. She raised her head and wiped away her tears gratefully, “Thank you Second Young Miss. This servant will do whatever the Young Miss says.”

Gu Ying pretended to be uncontrollably angry, and casually pointed to the nourishing pills on the table, “These nourishing pills will be delivered by you from now on.”

This was not a bad job at all. Qingfeng quickly said, “Okay, this servant understands and will listen to the Young Miss’s orders.”

Although she hated and resented in her heart, she still did not dare to tear her face with Gu Ying now. Otherwise, when the time came, she would not be able to complete what the Madam had ordered, and the Madam would not protect her. Going back would also be a dead end, so it was better to stay in Twilight Snow Studio for now and steady her foothold.

After making a scene, Qingfeng did not dare to be casual anymore.

She tried her best to comb Gu Ying's hair into a beautiful and delicate lily bun, and carefully embellished the hairstyle with exquisite hair ornaments, making the woman in the bronze mirror look fresh yet gentle.

The lead oxide made the eyebrows lightly outlined, the skin like jade. She looked like a doll made of snow, making Qingfeng stare blankly with wide eyes.

"Second young miss, you are so beautiful!"

This sentence was true.

Gu Ying turned her head to look at her.

Qingfeng quickly lowered her head, her heart thumping rapidly, and she didn't know why she suddenly became afraid of this silly second young miss.

Gu Ying put away the coldness in her eyes, pulled her up, and apologized with a smile, “I was too impatient just now. Thinking about going to the hunting ground today, I was afraid of losing face for the Marquis Manor and upsetting Grandmother and Madam, so I lost my temper. Good sister, as long as you follow me well, I will never mistreat you.”

Qingfeng let out a breath in relief. She also felt a little wronged and said, “This servant does not blame the young miss.”

Anyway, when she had a chance in the future, she must avenge today's humiliation.

Gu Ying glanced at her and said with a smile, "Yanzhi is crude and clumsy, and doesn't know how to serve people. In the future, this courtyard will still rely on Sister Mingyue and you!"

Hearing this, Qingfeng was naturally proud in her heart, and smiled, "The young miss can rest assured that since this servant is following the young miss, this servant will naturally serve the young miss well."

Gu Ying nodded.

After dressing up, she was about to go see the travel items herself.

Just as she walked to the box, she saw Yanzhi staring wide-eyed in shock. Seeing Gu Ying coming over, her face instantly turned pale, "Young Miss - Young Miss, this servant didn't mean it! This servant really didn't mean it!"

Before Gu Ying could speak, she heard Qingfeng scold, "Yanzhi, what's going on with you?"

Yanzhi was completely dumbfounded, standing by the box in shock, her fingers trembling slightly.

Mingyue came out and knelt down to Gu Ying, pursed her lips, "Young miss, this is bad, the LiWang Bow - the bowstring is broken..."

These words were like a bolt from the blue.

Gu Ying walked over in a few quick steps, picked up the LiWang Bow that was placed in the box, and the bowstring was neatly cut by something sharp and sagging.

Such a valuable thing, which was sent by the people of the Yong'an Marquis Manor, although she didn't reject it, it still had to be returned to the Young Marquis in the future. If it was broken like this, what should she do?

She frowned, her expression becoming solemn, and glared at Mingyue and Yanzhi, "Speak! What exactly happened?!"

She never thought that they would actually set their sights on the LiWang Bow...

The LiWang Bow was a priceless treasure...

If people from the Yong'an Marquis Manor investigated, no one could afford to take this responsibility.

Mingyue lowered her head, her fingers also trembling, but did not speak.

Yanzhi knelt down tremblingly, crying in fear, "Young miss, it wasn't this servant who did it. This servant doesn't dare to casually damage such a valuable thing like the LiWang Bow..."

There were only so few people in the courtyard.

"If it wasn't you who did it, then who was it?" Mingyue's eyes turned red, and she cried, "Young miss, please see clearly. This servant has always been meticulous in her work, assigning tasks clearly before letting people do them. This servant specifically assigned Yanzhi to check the LiWang Bow and count the number of bows and arrows, thinking that she is an elder by the young miss's side and works steadily. But I didn't expect—"

Yanzhi quickly defended, "Young miss, this servant really didn't do it!"

But she was inarticulate, kept saying it wasn't her who did it. When asked who did it, she couldn't say, after all, except for her, no one had touched the LiWang Bow.

Yanzhi slumped to the ground in despair, tears streaming down her cheeks.

Gu Ying looked at her disappointedly, holding the bow, "Yanzhi, you have followed me for so many years, you can say you grew up with me. The winter hunt is coming up soon, what bow and arrows will I use then? How can you do this? Are you deliberately trying to make me embarrass myself in front of others?! Moreover, this LiWang Bow is more precious than your life. If the news reaches the Marquis Manor, how many lives could you use to compensate?!"

Yanzhi's eyes turned red, "Young miss, this servant also doesn't know what happened..."

Gu Ying was so angry she felt dizzy, "Come! Throw all of Yanzhi's belongings out!"

Yanzhi cried chokingly as she hugged Gu Ying's legs pleading for mercy, "Young miss, don't! Don't drive this servant away!"

In order to show her own elegance, Mingyue deliberately pleaded for Yanzhi, "Young miss, driving Yanzhi away like this may not convince others. Please spare her this once."

After all, the bow was already damaged and a scapegoat was needed to take the blame.

Yanzhi was the best candidate.

She had originally thought that the more she pleaded, the angrier Gu Ying would be, and would even find someone to beat Yanzhi and sell her directly.

But unexpectedly, Gu Ying did not follow the script at all. She sighed, pinched her eyebrows, and said, "The winter hunt is imminent and time is tight. No one is allowed to mention today's matter. As for Yanzhi, let her stay in Twilight Snow Studio to do some menial work for now. After the winter hunt, I will find time to properly deal with her."
