11: Section 11
Su Mo was startled.
Crying?
This clearly indicates a bad mood. If she's in a bad mood and comes to see him, wouldn't he be doomed if he said even one wrong word?
With a pounding heart, Su Mo followed Chun Zhu to the backyard.
…
At the same time.
Somewhere deep in the mountains, two small snakes, one green and one white, emerged from a snowy cave.
The next second.
The two small snakes transformed into two beautiful women, one green and one white, amidst a radiant glow.
The white-clad beauty had an ethereal grace and an elegant demeanor.
The green-clad beauty was enchanting and alluring, her eyes full of emotion.
Upon closer inspection.
It was Bai Suzhen and Xiao Qing.
Xiao Qing looked at Bai Suzhen with a puzzled expression.
"Sister, why did you stop? Weren't you going to repay Xu Xian? You just found his whereabouts, so why aren't you going now?"
Bai Suzhen shook her head.
"I, I don't know."
"I seem to have had a very long dream. In the dream, I met a fated enemy, and you were there, and so was he."
"His name is Su Mo…"
As she spoke, her tone gradually became firm.
"I'm not going to repay the favor anymore…"
"I want to find him!"
As she spoke, Bai Suzhen's eyes welled up with tears, her emotions somewhat out of control.
Endless memories flooded from the depths of her mind.
Those were the bits and pieces of her past interactions with Su Mo.
Some sweet, some bitter.
They replayed before her eyes like a revolving lantern.
A voice also echoed constantly in her ears.
"If, if there's a next life…"
Su Lang.
There is no next life.
But I've returned to the past.
This time, I must find you, advise you well, and never again be as willful as before, making irresponsible choices…
Bai Suzhen was lost in thought.
Xiao Qing, on the other hand, looked on curiously, her gossipy heart burning brightly.
"Sister, is this man real or from your dream?"
"You can't give up the chance for Immortal Ascension just because of a dream, can you?"
"Guanyin Bodhisattva said that as long as this Karma can be resolved, you can achieve Immortal Ascension!"
Bai Suzhen shook her head.
"I have more important things to do."
"Let's go, follow me to Hangzhou Prefecture."
"I know where he is from!"
Xiao Qing was surprised to hear that.
What exactly did her sister go through? Why did she suddenly become like this after a nap?
It was as if she had become a completely different person.
Could it be that she had a Qi Deviation while cultivating her Cultivation Technique?
She had heard of it.
Some people whose Cultivation Technique wasn't practiced well would have a drastic change in personality after Qi Deviation, exactly like her sister!
Xiao Qing was a bit anxious.
For a moment, she didn't know what to do.
Now seeing that her sister was seriously ill, she could only humor her for now and go to Hangzhou Prefecture to see what was going on.
…
"Steward Su, Madam is in her room, but remember, don't look around."
"If you anger Madam, it will be a big deal!"
"Oh, and remember to keep your head down later. If Madam doesn't tell you to raise it, you absolutely mustn't raise it."
Inner courtyard.
Outside the General's Wife's room.
Chun Zhu was explaining to Su Mo some precautions for meeting Madam Huang later.
Su Mo listened carefully, his eyes fixed on Chun Zhu's large eyes.
"Sister Chun Zhu, thank you so much."
Su Mo's looks were above average; though not exceptionally handsome, he was considered dashing.
Chun Zhu's cheeks flushed at Su Mo's direct gaze.
She immediately pouted playfully.
"Steward Su."
"How impolite!"
Su Mo came to his senses, immediately realizing he had been a bit abrupt.
"Sister Chun Zhu, I'm truly sorry!"
"It's just that you're so beautiful, I lost myself for a moment…"
Unconsciously, Su Mo brought out his flirtatious rhetoric from Earth.
"Oh my!"
"I'm going to inform Madam."
In this society where feudal etiquette was prevalent, Chun Zhu had never expected Su Mo to say such bold words. Her steps, along with her mood, were flustered as she walked towards Madam's room.
Su Mo chuckled.
This Chun Zhu had a plump figure, large eyes with curved brows, and fair, tender skin; she looked like she would bear many children.
Although she couldn't compare to the ethereal beauty of Bai Suzhen or Xiao Qing, she had a cheerful face and was lovely to behold.
After his Transmigration.
He couldn't not find a wife, could he?
Su Mo knew very well that the love affair life was useless and impractical.
He would get frustrated every night looking at it.
If he could win over Chun Zhu, the Madam's personal maid, that would already be his best option.
Su Mo was a very practical person.
After Transmigration, he had nothing to rely on; he had to strive for everything himself…
At this moment.
Huang Qingwan was carefully examining her freshly applied makeup in front of a bronze mirror, then picked up an intricately carved ivory hairpin and fiddled with it.
Looking at herself in the mirror.
Dressed in a red jacket, adorned with glittering jewels and splendid embroidery.
Huang Qingwan was anxious.
Su Lang always preferred a more elegant look; would this outfit be too flashy…
Just then.
Chun Zhu entered with hurried steps.
"Madam, Steward Su has arrived."
Seeing Chun Zhu's flushed cheeks, Huang Qingwan nodded.
"You must be cold. Go find a brazier to warm yourself up later."
Chun Zhu nodded nervously, her mind filled with Su Mo's compliments and his direct gaze.
"Madam, shall we see him now?"
"Yes, let him in."
"Yes."
Then, Chun Zhu called Su Mo into Huang Qingwan's room.
As he entered the room, a scent of cosmetics wafted over him.
Su Mo kept his head down, not daring to look up at the General's Wife.
It could be said.
In ancient times, the lives of household servants like him were at the whim of these people.
He had to be careful.
With his head down.
Su Mo's eyes darted around.
He only saw a pair of Su Jin embroidered shoes beneath a red jacket and skirt.
The shoe's surface was delicate, embroidered with a pair of twin lotus flowers, their petals layered and dazzlingly white.
Huang Qingwan looked at the familiar figure before her, feeling a pang of sadness.
She knew very well.
The status gap between them was too great; she simply couldn't acknowledge her Su Lang.
Moreover, through previous inquiries and tests, she also knew that the current Su Lang had not undergone Rebirth; everything was in its initial state.
After a barely perceptible sigh.
Huang Qingwan's thin lips parted.
A clear, melodious voice, like a flowing mountain spring, came forth.
"Steward Su, I want to ask you, where did you learn that candied sweet potato dish?"
Chapter 14: Can't find him, can't find my Su Lang, where are you?
Hearing Huang Qingwan's soft voice, Su Mo felt a tingling sensation in his heart.
He had heard it in the "love affair life," but only when he heard it in person did he realize that Huang Qingwan's voice in reality was truly like a spring breeze.
Enjoying the beauty of her voice, Su Mo didn't forget to answer Huang Qingwan's question.
