Bab 20: 20. Some people
Hua Lan was actually a very cute woman and when she tasted the cold tea she was stunned. ''How do you keep it cold?''
Liu Mei pointed at the well in the corner of her inner garden. ''My well is next to my hand. Xiao Ran makes the tea and lets it get a bit cooler. When it's ready, she puts it in a jar down into the well and the water cools it down. A nice idea, isn't it? Xiao Ran is amazing. But Lady Hua, you shouldn't drink too much cold in your state. It's not good for the baby.'' She saw dramas and they all said that, but looking at her blank expression she had no idea what she is talking about.
''Actually, I have something called warm blood. Even trough winter time I could walk around in summer clothes and would never get cold.'' She explained her condition.
Did she have high blood pressure? Liu Mei never heard about warm blood. Is it something else, as it is a different dimension?
''May I ask what warm blood is?'' The curiosity could be seen on her face.
This time Hua Lan was stunned. ''It seems no one ever told you about many things.''After getting the affirmation to her guess, she held her head. ''Let's start from the beginning. Did you ever take the test?''
Xiao Ran was actually curious as well. But seeing her lady shaking her head and being confused, she understood many things. She just didn't know.
''There is such a thing when you are born, you get tested to check your blood. Some people have cold blood, some normal, some hot, some, blue, some purple, some golden and only rare people have pure red blood with light abilities.'' Liu Mei was blinking all the time, as she never heard anything about it. As it seems this is really another world, maybe some world but another dimension? She is not even surprised anymore. A strange entity sent somewhere her out her world, and now she finds herself in the world where people have such strange things.
''So what is the point? I mean with those strange blood things.'' Her curiosity was there but she was more interested why?
''Every blood has different abilities. Like me, I can be in cold places and never freeze. But I was born from a mother that had cold blood and father with a hot one. So it was hard to get a child. When I was born they found out, there is a new strange mixture, where I have many different blood types. So actually somehow I became very strong.'' Most of the girls she knew or avoided her or pretended to like her, as they were scared of her power.
''Nice.'' The difference between those girls and this woman was that she didn't care and even thought about it as something nice. Hua Lan was happy. Finally, one that was not scared.
''Liu Mei, I was thinking about you doing the test. It's not hard. Wait, doctor Zhao can do it for you. He lives next door, right?'' She was truly curious.
Liu Mei was kind of feeling aggrieved. Since that day when she found those strange flowers, those two people avoided her like the pest. Would they even come?
She just shrugged. ''I have never done it. What do I have to do?'' Her big curious eyes stared at Hua Lan, who was truly feeling like pinching her again, but she behaved. She quickly hid her hands under the table and smiled at Liu Mei, while her servant looked at her in wonder. Her mistress never held back.
Her sight fell on the calm smile Liu Mei had on her lips and her dreamy eyes and understood. Hua Lan, the famous, most dangerous woman in the whole country, found her calming counterpoint. But how is that even possible? Miss Liu Mei didn't actually do anything. She just sat there and gave a slight smile at everyone, showing two small dimples on her cheeks. She was not devastatingly pretty or extremely smart, just a simple woman, but that aura...
Xiao Ran went next door and politely asked doctor Zhao to come to visit her mistress, for the important question. She left a message, not even waiting for an answer and left the door after she gave a great bow in front of the stunned servant.
He remembered that last time the others didn't let the master know on time and they all got punished and fired, so his back went cold. He rushed inside and reported it to the main servant of his master.
Like that he could always say he did his job. He just stood there while that man didn't even move to send the message. The servant sneered from inside. It seems that little mistress is again on her trip around. If this goes to the master's ears, who knows what will happen to her.
The main yard servant was hesitant. Just before, he was rebuked by little mistress again and now this damnable servant doesn't leave. If the master finds out, who knows what consequences that might have.
He just sighed. In the end, a master is a master, he can't be negligent. He thankfully bowed to the servant and turned around to report it. But of course, he was unlucky to meet that person.
''Stop, where do you think you are going?'' The young arrogant voice questioned him while a couple of female servants stopped him on his way.
He bowed deeply and looked calmly at the young mistress. ''Madam, If I don't report to master, we both might die. Last time mistress was punished with just being locked in a yard, but who knows how he will react this time. I still respect you, but the master is my master. I am loyal to him. Please do not stop me, I beg you.'' He bowed and waited bowed.
With a screaming voice, she started ranting. ''Lowly servant, you dare to threaten to me. I am still a young mistress of this house. If I tell you to do something, you will do it right away. You dare to disregard my words, then die. Servants beat him to death!''
Her screaming resounded trough the whole residence, making the two men look at each other and rush to see what happened. Unfortunately, they came a tad too late.
