Embroidery Girl
chapter 17.2: the victory dance
After a long struggle, he was finally able to open it. Without waiting for long, she directly put it into her beautiful mouth. When chewing for a while, an expression that could not be painted on his plain face. She was smiling and very charming.
“Emmm! It's so sweet! Auntie, how did you get a sweet egg like this? To my knowledge, there are no sweet eggs like this. Is there sugar in it?”
“No sugar, beautiful lady. Only made of quality materials. The egg was just an ordinary egg. As the saying goes, ‘what you plant that you will pick’ fire is also the same as plants and animals, if the fertilizer is good, then the plant also grows well; if the animal eats a healthy diet, it will grow into a fat animal and have a beautiful shape.
Same with the fire, if the beautiful lady gave him good quality firewood, then the food produced was also good. The smell will also be fragrant. The sweet taste that the beautiful lady felt, it was because the aunt put the sugar into the fire so that when the candy melted and turned into smoke, the smoke would go into the egg and affect the taste.”
“hah? Aunt, can it be?”
“that could. If the pretty lady likes it, the lady can take my part.”
“No, no aunt, I'm not greedy like that. I'll keep my body thinner. If I can, I want to make my face very ugly and my body very unattractive at all.”
“have a beautiful face and a beautiful body, that's not a gift?”
When Lu yingtao said that, Li Xin Mei ate the remaining eggs. Then he replied, “I don't need it. This beautiful face and beautiful body is a mistake, I don't need it. Even because of this, I was threatened to become a brothel woman. How dishonorable it is.”
“how can this beautiful lady be a brothel girl? You pretty lady would never be that kind of woman ‘, right?”
“If I could choose, I wouldn't do it, but I can't. My crown has been forcibly taken by the savage, and now he will always hunt me down and take me to the brothel. Aunt, I'll be a servant girl! I don't like it! How's this! Can I be free from this?”
“Who is that guy? How dare you do that to the beautiful lady? However, I really envy her already feeling the crown of little miss. Miss Pretty, is she handsome?”
“He's really handsome. But unfortunately he is cold and psychopathic, likes to kill. Besides, he also let myself be raped by some of those damn bandits! I'm really mad at him. My mother and father were killed by him. Auntie, help me to be free from that man.”
“Why the beautiful lady did not approach her, who knows she can be made a husband. In addition, he must also be strong, someday beautiful lady will be protected by him.”
“married him? No, no, no. I might have been considered crazy to marry her. Such an evil man must die and end up in hell. Although he is handsome, handsome is useless if behaving like that.”
“True too. Miss beautiful... How about you become the king's concubine or at least the regent's wife and governor. With your face and body, the beautiful lady will definitely get it easily. Aunty guarantees no one will reject the beautiful lady. Then after marriage just tell the husband of the beautiful lady to kill the savage man.”
“It was a wise decision, but... If the man who became my husband is not handsome and is old, I do not want to be with him.”
“It's okay, as long as all the conveniences are fulfilled. Not good looking is okay ‘kan?”
“No, no aunt, I don't want to. But if it's handsome, I want it. But, aunt, can I marry someone I like?”
“of course, little lady. But... It's hard to get the best. Rich in face may not be rich in treasure. Beautiful lady, I suggest to marry the king only, Although not handsome, your face and body will be well-groomed.”
“basic naive girl!” suddenly jing heihai chattered.
Li Xin Mei was slightly offended, but she did not retaliate.
“You would not be able to live in this world if you had such an attitude. The world is so cruel to a girl like you. A naive and innocent mind, would only be a victim in this chaotic world. If you want to win you have to be cunning, good at finding loopholes, sacrificing everything and evil. If you want a handsome guy and a guy you like, then get ready, you won't be able to find him. If you find him, he or you are still in this world,” added jin heihai.
“M-why?”
“living in this world eating and sacrificing each other. Nothing will end well.”
“I'll do my best.”
“Basic naive girl.”
After that there was no longer any talk between Xin Mei and jin heihai. Xin mei turned her head, looking at Li youngtou. “Auntie, what does brother jin say is true?”
Lu yingtao nodded slowly. “if miss is beautiful, want to be free from the man, aunt will help the beautiful miss.”
“Can aunty?”
“nona beautiful relax.” Lu yingtao hugged Xin mei with his right hand. He rubbed his shoulders gently.
“now sleep. Never imagine anything, it has not happened. Go to sleep, tomorrow beautiful lady will start a new life. We're going to go around this Chinese plain. See people from other countries; see what it brings.”
Xin Mei had never felt affection and warmth all this time. He always met with fear, coldness and tormentors. He would never have expected to feel this tenderness. He slowly put his head to sleep in the white cloth of Li youngtou's lap.
Lu yingtao stroked his black hair and head gently. Every time Lu yingtao stroked her hair, she felt very comfortable and calm.
“Little girl has healthy hair. If someday aunt has a daughter, aunt wants to see her grow up like a pretty miss.”
“bibi... why is aunt unmarried?” Xin mei asked while staying asleep.
“Maybe it's not time.”
“Beautiful girl, sleep well. Don't mind the rain outside. Don't mind the people who hurt you, beautiful lady will live happily. People are cruel, but if you remember, it will be very painful. Let's just say it never happened. If it's still ringing, assume it's a nightmare to forget. The key to a happy life is to eliminate bad thoughts and remember happy things.”
Xin Mei nodded slowly. He closed his eyes. His body feels very warm and comfortable. His hand slowly fell to the ground. Then, there was the sound of her soft breath.
