Kapitel 186: Chapter 186: The Method of Refining Pills 17
In the end, Xiao Yun had inherited Concubine Xue's way of thinking. Taking a deep breath, all the jealousy and anger were harshly suppressed down.
"Third sister, I was too cold before. Maybe I had accidentally pushed you. It wasn't intentional."
Huang Bei Yue leaned on Dong Ling's embrace. The corners of her mouth curved into a smile. Indeed she is Xiao Yun. She is able to easily suppress her anger, this way it would be fun to challenge her.
Dong Ling sniffed her nose. She raised her two tear-filled eyes to take a look at Xiao Yun. Then with panic, she lowered her head with choking sobs she said: "Yes, the second young miss didn't do that intentionally."
Everyone understood the grievances and fear within her voice.
Huang Bei Yue almost laughed out loud. Dong Ling is really quick-witted and crafty! Once she seized an opportunity, she'll harshly hit them. She didn't even give Xiao Yun any ability to turn the situation around.
And within her voice, there was no criticism at all. Her tone showed that she was timid and wronged. The people around them were all people invited by Xiao Yao Wang. They are very able people who lived in seclusion.
Dong Ling was able to understand the situation quickly and took advantage of the surrounding situation. She had twisted the greatest benefits for herself, smart!
"There is this saying that blood is thicker than water. However, to have this kind of sister, she is sure unlucky."
It wasn't known who had said that but Xiao Yao Wang's expression had turned worse. He coldly said: "Is the boat ready?"
"Replying to Wangye, the boat is ready." A servant had said as he rushed over.
Xiao Yao Wang was too lazy to even look at Xiao Yun. He waved his hand: "Send second young miss Xiao back."
"Wangye, I really didn't mean to do it." Xiao Yun really wanted to say more. But with the disgust and disdaining look she was getting from the numerous experts she felt like she had become the target of criticism from others. She felt as if she just say a wrong word, she'll be killed by them and thrown into the blue lake.
Xiao Yao Wang walked forward to help Huang Bei Yue up. He softly asked: "Are you okay?"
"I'm okay. Thank you Wangye for your concern," she had quietly said. Then she untied her cloak and gave it to Dong Ling. "Dong Ling put it on my sister."
"Yes." Dong Ling brought the cloak over, "Second young miss, the weather is really cold. Put it on."
The things that Huang Bei Yue give her, how could Xiao Yun accept it? But right now she can't shed her pretense. So she forced herself to laugh and said: "It's okay. Third sister isn't in good health. It's best if third sister wears it. Second sister's health is very good."
Even in this state, she doesn't forget to mock Huang Bei Yue's sickly body!
Huang Bei Yue raised her head. Her pitch-black eyes were like the morning stars that appear in the horizon. Resplendent and blurred, she looked at Xiao Yun's face. Her voice was soft but flat: "Second sister has a healthy body so I won't worry. But second sister had fallen into the water and isn't properly dressed. It's okay here, but once you get to the coast, there will be a lot of people. People will talk about how the young misses from Princess Zhang's Prefecture doesn't know any etiquette."
Xiao Yun was frozen to the point where her face had become blue. Suddenly, her face became red. She had just remembered that the clothes she was wearing were what she would wear at a lady's chamber. She was only wearing an unlined single garment and because she had fallen into the water, the garment stuck to her skin.
The thin single layer of the garment was light and transparent. It stuck to her skin, outlining her fine curves. The red undergarment that she wore inside was faintly discernible.
The people who were standing there were all men. She's an unmarried woman, yet she was losing face in front of numerous people without knowing it. She was careless and doesn't understand the etiquette. She was no different from a woman from the brothel.

Immediately, in addition to the anger in their gaze, the gaze of the surrounding people was also filled with contempt towards Xiao Yun.
Xiao Yun quickly took the cloak that Dong Ling had brought over. She rapidly put it on herself, wrapping her entire body up.
The bodyguards who had no self-restraint had already lowered their heads and started laughing.
Xiao Yun only thought that today was the most humiliating day of her entire life. And she had lost her dignity in front of Xiao Yao Wang, the person she likes. She wants to find a crack in the ground and crawl inside.
Two lines of tears rolled down her cheeks. She was too embarrassed to continue to stay on the boat. She had her head down. While sobbing, she followed Xiao Yao Wang's servant onto the small boat and left.
Huang Bei Yue sneered coldly in her heart. Xiao Yun, you want to fight with me? You're still to tender.
From today onwards, another frivolous, wanton, and ruined woman would appear in Lin Huai City.
However, Xiao Yun didn't have the luck that Concubine Qin had that year. Concubine Qin was able to meet the lenient and generous Princess Zhang. Princess Zhang had allowed Concubine Qin into the prefecture as a concubine.
Xiao Yun was only an unmarried 16 years old. In this lifetime, she probably doesn't have any place in the future with the other main wives from prominent families.
After the matter regarding Xiao Yun, the people that were invited here by Xiao Yao Wang were no longer in the mood for the pill event. One after another, they took their leave.
"Princess Bei Yue." Before leaving, a thin but bright old man walked in front of Huang Bei Yue. He humbly cupped one fist in the other hand and said: "The daughter that Princess Zhang had taught, you understand the etiquette very well. Princess didn't put Princess Zhang's reputation to shame. This old man is very gratified."
Huang Bei Yue stared at him blankly. In her memory, there were no memories of him.
The old man laughed with a 'haha': "Of course Princess doesn't recognize this old man. I had met Princess Zhang before she was married."
"Sir, Bei Yue was rude." Huang Bei Yue, immediately as the identity of a junior, bowed to him. She is usually a proud person but when it comes to her elders, especially a kind and loving elder, she is usually very respectful towards them.
Furthermore, his words had praised Princess Zhang. Towards such a person, she needs to be very respectful to him. Hence, the memory of Princess Zhang won't be flawed in his heart because of her.
The old man stroked the short beard on his chin and laughed: "Good, good ah! Today this old man has seen Princess Bei Yue, this old man have finally resolved my desire. That year I was too busy, I wanted to give Princess Zhang a gift. But I had to deal with a lot of matters, so it kept getting delayed until she had passed away. I was still unable to send the gift. This old man had felt great regret these past years."
"Sir, please don't say that. My mother must've felt that it was very fortunate of her to have met you." Huang Bei Yue said with a smile.
The old man smiled with relief: "Being able to hear the Princess say it like this, this old man is also very fortunate. Since I'm unable to give this gift to Princess Zhang, then I'll give it to you. Think of it as resolving one of this old man's wish!"
Saying up to this, he turned his hand over. From his high-grade purple gemmed space ring, he took out a scroll. With a smile, he gave it to Huang Bei Yue.
Huang Bei Yue didn't dare to refuse as she quickly received it from him: "Thank you, sir!"
When an elder gives his junior something, it wouldn't be sensible/smart to refuse.
"Hahaha, good child. I hope to see you again." The old man saw that she was well-mannered, he felt even more gratified. He nodded his head. His body floated on top of the lake. As he floated more, he slowly disappeared into the distance.
