Mistress, I Was Wrong

Chapter 3: Schemes

Dngfng Lzhs face was stiff. She came with the intention on criticizing her, but the words of Dngfng Mnghu reminded her that she was always seen as a gentle and virtuous lady. How could she act so stern?

Ninth sister, youve misunderstood, rushing out and not greeting the servants like that was very dangerous. Fortunately, those dog-like servants knew you were their master. If they were short-sighted, they wouldve hurt you by mistake, , what should we do now? Whats more, fourth elder sister doesnt understand, why did you stand up for her?

Dngfng Mnghu snorted very disdainfully, Me, stand up for that person? That whole incident was accidental.

In spite of her excuse, Dngfng Mnghu knew it wouldnt erase the suspicion in Dngfng Lzhs heart.

Mnghu suddenly had a thought, she should find a way and push all the stupid misdeeds she made towards the female protagonist onto this scorpion woman. Let her have a taste of being blamed for someone elses crimes.

This lady always used her to progress her agenda, why not do the same to her?

Fourth sister, this was my fault, let that bitch go for now, well think of another way to destroy her.

When Lzh saw her like this, her suspicion slightly eased, There are many opportunities, Im just unsure if ninth sister would be willing to do it.

Dngfng Mnghu listened with a delighted look on her face, she enthusiastically grasped Dngfng Lzhs hands and spoiledly said, My dear fourth elder sister, come quickly and listen. You must also know my hatred with me and that bitch will never die, daring to steal this ladys man, watch me torment her to near-death.

Please dont take offense, female protagonist. Im trying to misguide and reduce this opponents vigilance.

Dngfng Lzh thought she was finally starting to revert back to her old self, waving her hand, she whispered, When I saw the young master meeting her last time, it seemed he liked her. Why dont we match them together, isnt that a good idea?

Dngfng Mnghu was surprised, You mean cousin?

Dngfng Lzh nodded, He listens to you the most. If you talk to him, hell definitely agree.

No problem fourth sister, be patient and wait for my good news.

After happily sending off Dngfng Lzh, Dngfng Mnghu placed a hand on her hand with a sad look on her face, she knew this poisonous woman was up to no good. Did she end up bearing all her sins? It was no wonder the fourth lady escaped with a proper marriage, while she ended up with a miserable fate.

Miss, your head injury hasnt healed, you need to rest. Cuier reminded on the sidelines.

Dngfng Mnghu shook her head and gestured dismissively, How can my cousin come here at this time?

Was he related to the Patriarch?

Miss, you forget, in a few days it will be the Patriarchs birthday, the young master is naturally coming to celebrate. The Patriarch who was her father? Birthday?

There did seem to be a paragraph in the book that mentioned this, but it was a mere passage, so it provided minor details. Still, it was his birthday, it would be tough for seventh sister.

After two days passed, Dngfng Mnghu was walking in the gardens when she met an unexpected guest, her cousin, Qin Mu.

Qin Mu was a talented, elegant, and smart youth, everything was good about him. His only major flaw was his lasciviousness towards females, just seeing a beautiful woman walk by would cause him to fawn. His mother believed he would one day receive a hard-earned lesson with them.

Why would cousin be here?

Qin Mu was still young, a third-tier soldier. In the future, it would be difficult to find someone that could rival him in the whole county. If he cultivated well enough, he would find success.

Looking at him, Dngfng Mnghu abandoned the plan at first sight, Cousin, its been a long time, you look even more handsome than before. Have you seen my mother?

My cousins words have grown even sweeter, I havent seen my aunt yet, I was getting ready, want to together?

Sure, I heard my mother talk about your experiences, my cousin should tell me the interesting things that happened on your journey.

The two talked happily, it was only until they arrived at the door of Second lady Qin Qin did they finally stop.

When Qin Qin saw their good relationship, she joked, Huier, what did your cousin say to you to make you so happy, I want to know as well.

Dngfng Mnghu rushed into her mothers arms and was shy, Mother wants to tease me, but cousin has experienced so much fun things on his journey, I also want to experience it as well.

Huier, dont be foolish, youre still young.

Dngfng Mnghu stuck out her tongue. She sat aside and watched as Qin Mu and her mother chat.

On the day of the Patriarchs birthday, the Dngfng family home was brightly lit and full of joy, decorated with a festive red. At the dinner party, Dngfng Mnghu invited Qin Mu and Dngfng Wny to sit on the side the table.

Dngfng Wny ignored her, she and Mnghus relationship were like fire and water, unable to form a river. If she wasnt in the woods with her a few days ago, her impression towards Mnghu would be even worse.

How could they stand each other, both were unrelenting to the point that everyones attention was focused on them.

What do you want? Dngfng Wny gnashed her teeth in irritation.

Dngfng Wnys angry voice made the bones in her legs melt, gulping, Seventh seventh elder sister, dont be annoyed, I just want to invite you to a show.

Show?

Dngfng Wny laughed with a sneer when she saw Dngfng Mnghus pleasing look on her face, a sloppy attempt. She didnt think she had any new tricks, so she decided to wait and see this good show.

When Qin Mu saw Dngfng Wny, his eyes brightened his smile was akin to a springs breeze. He wanted to say hello to her, but there was a certain female cousin between them and Wny didnt even spare him a look.

Dngfng Mnghu took a sip from her cup and peeked at the two. It was as Dngfng Lzh said, Qin Mu had a crush towards her.

Dngfng Mnghu thought Qin Mu would be useless to her, the female protagonist was too strong.

But from another perspective, those whod seen this strange scene would have a different thought.

Especially Dngfng Lzh, who saw and thought that Mnghu really did deceive and lure Wny, while also arranging Qin Mu to sit near her, knowing the plan was in progress.

She didnt need to do anything but wait quietly.

Thinking the plan was finally going to succeed, Dngfng Lzh made a beautiful and enchanting laugh, not realizing that everything was falling into place from another party.

After the banquet, everyone left one by one.

Dngfng Mnghu sent Qin Mu off, then dragged Dngfng Wny to the courtyards, waiting quietly for something.

What trick are you playing?

Dngfng Mnghu directly covered her mouth, Seventh sister, be quiet or well be discovered, the show is about to start.

She had Cuier send a letter to Dngfng Lzh and asked her not to let anyone else see it.

Dngfng Lzh was resting, her heart was filled with delight and was waiting for good news to come, but she didnt expect Cuier to send a note.

It said change of plans, quick consultation.

So she followed Cuier immediately, entering a room Dngfng Mnghu had specifically prepared for her. It was pitch-black inside, dark enough that her fingers were practically out of her sight.

Miss said, let the fourth Miss sit for a while, wait for her to send the young master, then she will hurry over swiftly. Cuier kindly lit for her, readying the drug in the sandalwood. A fragrant scent spread over the room.

Lady four, Ill check and see if she arrived yet.

Go ahead.

Dngfng Lzh had already seen Cuiers little movements with her eyes, but her face remained motionless. She leisurely poured a cup of cool water for herself, smiling wickedly before taking a sip. After a while, she leaned over, unconscious.

After waiting a long time outside, Cuier pushed open the door to find Dngfng Lz h lying on the table. Shaking to wake her, she spoke, Lady four, wake up, Miss has arrived.

Seeing no response, Cuier swiftly ran outside and whispered, Miss, Miss.

At this point, Dngfng Mnghu let out a relieved sigh and ran out from the bushes, responding, Dont shout, lets go, quickly.

Dngfng Wny also followed out, curious to see what the lady had in mind.

The two of them carried the unconscious Dngfng Lzh into another room. Cuier placed her on the bed, while Dngfng Mnghu rudely stripped off her clothes and made her lie in the bed naked.

Okay, Cuier, you go talk to that young master. Dngfng Mnghu wiped off the sweat on her forehead, doing bad things was really challenging, her heart was about to leap out of her throat.

You

Before she could say anything, Dngfng Wny was pulled out of the door by Dngfng Mnghu. They crouched behind the bushes, waiting until a drunk man who smoked entered the room.

Soon there were heavy gasping in the room

So this is what you call a good show? You really are birds of a feather. The indifferent eyes of Dngfng Wny briefly flashed in disgust, standing up to walk away.

Dngfng Mnghu was dumbfounded, did everything she do end up in vain? She took a small step towards her, Seventh sister, seventh sister, listen to me, its not like that, fourth sister wanted to scheme against you, I

Dngfng Wny abruptly turned around and laughed, causing Mnghu to barely avoid crashing into her. Her giggling made hair stand on edge, it was, eh, really too terrible.

So you said she wanted to scheme against me, then you schemed against her, all for my sake? Dngfng Wnys smile flipped, the change was aggressively quick.

Dngfng Mnghu took several steps back and thought the protagonist was being way too vigilant, making this difficult. If she said yes, it would be too unrealistic, arousing the protagonists suspicions.

Thinking of this, Dngfng Mnghu shook her head and firmly replied, No, its all for my sake. I didnt want to listen her so stupidly anymore.

The two quietly looked face to face at each other for a while. Then, Wny nodded and chuckled, Indeed, she is so stupid.

Dngfng Mnghu was stunned,

Protagonist, what did you mean?

TN*

. what does this mean?

When I put in the lord, I am unsure of how to exactly word the position of Minghuis father. In literal terms he is the grandpa elder of some sort, and apparently this sort of position was never given an english name to perfectly describe it.

Edit: for now hell be referred to as patriarch
