Chapter 431 Explore the Way in Advance

Xiu was not a brainless person, so she wouldn’t make a scene without a target.

Nevertheless, since she had said that she would teach Sumei and Yuan Mei a lesson, she had to find a reason, right?

By the time Lin Mengya finished her breakfast, the rumored relations.h.i.+p between Yuan Mei and Sumei had spread throughout the camping ground.

Now everyone looked at them with envy and desire for gossiping in their eyes.

Meanwhile, Yuan Lin looked unnatural, which made most people think that he also liked Sumei.

However, Yuan Lin had a charming and lovely wife. Now the pretty and adorable girl of Dongfang family also followed him around.

In any case, he should humour his elder brother, right?

However, the atmosphere became a little embarra.s.sing because of the enmity between the two brothers.

Because the three of them had said that they would go first, Lin Mengya rode on a horse and did not talk to others with her face darkening.

Qiu Yu was glad to be at ease, following Lin Mengya and showing her excessive attention.

Therefore, Long Tianyu, to whom Sumei attached herself, felt even more upset.

“Brother Yuan, why don’t you take me with you? I feel very nervous with them.”

Early in the morning, Sumei began to cling to Long Tianyu, either serving him tea or helping him eat and get dressed.

She showed tender affection in her eyes, completely unlike a girl from good family. Anyone could tell the ambiguous relations.h.i.+p between the two of them.

Hongyu had been worried before, but after seeing that Yuan Mei didn’t reject Sumei’s kindness, she gradually felt relieved.

Nevertheless, based on her experience, she could tell that Yuan Mei and Yuan Lin were probably not just brother and sister.

Sumei looked good, but compared with Yuan Lin, she was considerably inferior.

If Sumei really became Yuan Mei’s concubine, life would probably be difficult for her with such a tough mistress.

Moreover, Yuan Lin had rescued them out of the abyss of suffering.

Was it too unscrupulous of Sumei to do that?

“Sister, we might stay and wait here. It’s dangerous ahead. Don’t make things even harder for childe Yuan and others, okay?”

She pulled Sumei, who was acting in a coquettish manner, away. Others didn’t notice it, but she saw clearly that Sumei was never in Yuan Mei’s eyes.

She did not know what made Sumei firmly believe that Yuan Mei had a liking for her. However, she knew clearly that if Sumei kept attaching herself to Yuan Mei, Sumei would definitely be hurt.

“Stop dragging me. I know what I am doing.”

In the tent, as the innocence and tenderness on her face was replaced by impatience, Sumei shook off Hongyu’s hand.

“Sumei, I am your sister. No matter you admit it or not, I have to deliberate for your future. The childe Yuan does not look like from an ordinary family. Why do you have to attach yourself to him?”

Hongyu had been ignorant of how to get along with Sumei.

The memories of her childhood were so blurred that only a rough outline was left.

After earning her living in the brothel for so many years, she had become accustomed to playing tricks to earn more money.

She could cope with the most formidable guest, but only felt helpless and anxious in front of her biological sister.

She had to be cautious even if she did it for her sister’s good.

“So what? Well, you’ve seen numerous high officials and n.o.ble lords in these years. If you say he’s not an ordinary person, he’s certainly not. As long as I manage to capture his heart, we don’t need to worry about our future lives, right?”

Sumei said indifferently, seeming to not care about her sister Hongyu’s concerns.

Standing there silently, Hongyu suddenly didn’t know what she should say to persuade Sumei.

Wealth was as transient as a fleeting cloud. At that time, numerous high officials and n.o.ble lords wanted to buy her freedom and make her a concubine. They were all rejected by her in the end.

It was because she clearly knew that those wealthy families were not as simple as they looked.

“Listen to my advice. Stay away from the childe Yuan. Even if you manage to capture his heart, you can only be a concubine of his. Although I can’t guarantee you a wealthy life, I can find you a wealthy family in the Nation of Lintian where you can marry and live a smooth life. Isn’t it good?”

Hongyu held Sumei’s hand and wanted to convey her feelings.

However, after glancing at her sarcastically, Sumei withdrew her hand lightly.

“Find a wealthy family? And then make me a peasant woman for a lifetime with the money of selling yourself? Sister, why are you so selfish?”

Her sarcastic tone, coupled with her particular aversion, made Hongyu feel her heart drenched by a lot of ice water.

She tried to deliberate for her sister. Why was she terribly misunderstood by her sister?

“I just…”

“Do you think that father and mother really didn’t know that you were sold to the brothel? To tell you the truth, you didn’t get lost, but were sold by father and mother for five taels of silver. That was the best Spring Festival we have ever had since my childhood. It was a pity that they could only sell you once. Father and mother regretted it so much that they were unwilling to sell me anymore. Do you know?”

Coldness spread from her heart. Hongyu didn’t know how pale her face was.

And she looked shaky and unsteady, as if she would fall at any time.

After taking a step back, she could barely support herself.

She could understand that her parents sold her at that time because they were poor.

But why did her biological sister seem to regret that she wasn’t sold for more money?

Could it be that in Sumei’s heart, her elder sister was less important than a few taels of silver?

“Oh, now you feel sad, right? Sister, you’ve lived a wealthy life for so many years. Have you ever thought of me and our parents? When mother was on the brink of death, I served her by her side. Now I finally got a chance. You not only refuse to help me, but also step aside and hinder me. What do you mean by doing that?”

She, she just did that for the sake of her younger sister. But unexpectedly, Sumei considered that she was hindering her.

Hongyu only felt everything went black in front of her.

Was this girl really her biological sister?

“I’m telling you, I’m going to capture childe Yuan’s heart. I don’t care about being a concubine. As long as I no longer need to live that kind of miserable life even without enough food, I can do anything. Sister, you can stand by with folded arms. But if you hinder me again, don’t blame me for being rude to you!”

Sumei threatened Hongyu with her delicate face becoming completely vicious.

Hongyu stared at her sister in a daze, and a tear quietly fell down from the corner of her eye.

She knew that her family had lived a miserable life. In her memory, she and her sister had fed on coa.r.s.e grains such as wheat bran, sweet potatoes, sorghums and so on.

Nevertheless, she had never expected that her simple and lovely younger sister would become the way she was now, and wondered why this would happen.

Was she really wrong?

However, her sanity told her that if Sumei went on like this, it was tantamount to stirring up a fire and burn herself.

Nevertheless, Sumei even refused to take any advice of hers, let alone being discouraged from it by her. She just wanted to help her younger sister. Gosh, what should she do?

Weeping silently, she, who had been a resourceful famous prost.i.tute in the brothel, was extremely sad.

She hoped that Sumei wouldn’t go too far. Otherwise, even she would probably be unable to keep Sumei safe…

The three horses walked side by side. Lin Mengya was riding the horse in the middle, with Long Tianyu and Qiu Yu on both sides.

They all had their own thoughts. It was funny that every time the three of them got together, the atmosphere always became extremely embarra.s.sing.

Lin Mengya looked around and laughed in her heart, but didn’t show it at all.

Long Tianyu shouldn’t have flirted with Sumei without talking it over with her.

Qiu Yu was not a good person either. He took pleasure in their embarra.s.sment, as if she couldn’t tell it.

After getting out of the apricot blossom forest, the three of them soon stood on a small soil slope.

Lin Mengya involuntarily gasped with surprise. It was no wonder that Master Guo repeatedly told her that if they met with any unexpected difficulties, they must not break through it.

“Gosh, there is such a spectacle in the world?”

Not only Lin Mengya, but also Long Tianyu, who saw it for the first time, couldn’t help being shocked.

In the distance, the s.p.a.ce between heaven and earth seemed to be split into two halves by a huge axe.

The deep valley was only over ten meters wide, but the two sh.o.r.es were even. Looking towards both sides, they couldn’t see the end, as if it was boundless. They had to marvel at the uncanny workmans.h.i.+p of nature.

They let the horses walk slowly. A mountain road nestling against nothing came into their view, and it was the only path leading to the other side.

“Be careful. It’s hung in the air.”

Qiu Yu, who was familiar with the terrain, hurriedly warned Lin Mengya. She got down from the horse and looked ahead carefully.

She involuntarily gasped in horror. Gosh, it was a real unfathomable abyss in front of her. Although she was not afraid of height, she found it turned out to be misty and unfathomable at first glance.

Lin Mengya couldn’t help swallowing a mouthful of saliva. Even a rock would be smashed into pieces if it fell, let alone a person.

“Is this mountain road really shaped by nature?”

Lin Mengya cautiously stepped on the only stone road, but a gust of strong wind blew violently before she stood firm.

Long Tianyu; who had sharp eyes and agile hands, dragged her over. In a flash, Lin Mengya’s palm had been soaked by cold sweat.

“Yes. The people of our Nation of Lintian call it Immortal Road. It is rumored that the Nation of Lintian and Dajin were a whole. Afterwards, the cavalry of the Dajin went on expeditions from all sides, and the people in the Nation of Lintian were dest.i.tute. Afterwards, an immortal split the two sides with an immortal axe and then walked through this stone road.”

Qiu Yu showed some complicated emotions in his eyes.

Lin Mengya didn’t think much. He probably felt uneasy upon arrival at his hometown.

Anyway, Qiu Yu was an imperial physician serving the emperor in the Jin State, and seemed to be completely loyal and trusted by the emperor.

Therefore, he must have some complicated emotions when returning to his hometown.
