Chapter 105.1: Not Being Considerate in All Aspects

Jing Wan originally wanted to let someone have Li Ru Yu sent onto the Cheng Junwang Manor horse carriage, directly having her sent back, but Li Ru Yu was unwilling to cooperate, insisting on having her own two servant girls support her. Since it was like so, Jing Wan had no choice but to personally send her off. Just as she was about to get on the horse carriage, Jing Wan smilingly said, “This subject awaits for junzhu to come find this subject again. When time comes, one will be sure to properly entertain junzhu, guaranteed to let junzhu feel at home.”

Li Ru Yu was sore all over, to the point where she was unable to stop trembling. She rather wanted to be more confident in front of Jing Wan, but unfortunately was unable to. Even if she gritted her teeth in hatred, she still didn’t dare to curse Jing Wan again. She was afraid that Jing Wan would beat her again.

The so called, ‘to have such a master, then there will certainly be such servants’, normally arrogant and conceited, following by Li Ru Yu’s side, but this while, they too were like startled quails, timidly trembling in fear, not daring to breathe loudly. It was very obvious that after the two of them were taken down, they too were nicely ‘served’.

“Luo Jing Wan, what are you so pleased about? Your fiancee is gone, and very soon, he’ll become this junzhu’s junma(husband of a junzhu). And this is all retribution for stealing big brother Lin. Right now, you’re nothing more than an unwanted lowly………..”

Seeing Jing Wan brightly smiling, Li Ru Yu forcibly swallowed back her next words.

“Everything junzhu said is correct. But, so what? It’s just a cancelled engagement, not like one is unable to marry. This subject will definitely have another fiancee, just don’t know whether or not junzhu will still have the ability to steal again? Junzhu rather can offer yourself up to let him sleep again, but, the first time getting slept by someone is valuable, but the second time won’t be worth anything. One short-lasting spring dream^[1], and just slept with a junzhu. Although a broken shoe, he wouldn’t be at a loss either, just treat it as having taken a stroll around the brothels, even the kind that doesn’t need money. If others were to find out, they will certainly all flock to see, don’t even need to trouble junzhu to personally go visit them, how nice, am I right? Just, that older cousin Min of mine will be a bit out of luck, don’t know how green the cap on his head will become. However, by that time, even if you’re a junzhu, he’ll still have an excuse to divorce you, no? Speaking of which, this subject rather thought of something. Last night, was it junzhu’s first time sleeping with someone? Seeing junzhu’s casual attitude, it seems as if you’re quite familiar. Mama, say, if junzhu had already lost her virginity beforehand, does it mean that older cousin Min won’t need to take responsibility?”

Gong mama very fittingly furrowed her brows, “Junzhu is someone of the imperial family after all. If she clings onto young master Min and doesn’t let go, most likely, he’ll still have to marry her. The imperial family needs to value their reputation, and young master Min can’t get pinned a ‘cold and heartless’ label either. That would be harmful to his future prospects.”

“Oh, then older cousin Min can only compromise.” Jing Wan was very much disgruntled for her older cousin.

Li Ru Yu pointed to Jing Wan, violent shaking, yet could only stutter ‘you, you, you’ for a while, and then fainted in anger, nearly dragging her two servant girls onto the ground with her. Gong mama rather kindly extended her hand.

“Looks like junzhu is tired. Then again, from scheming against older cousin yesterday to until now, haven’t once calmed down, so it’s best to quickly send her back.” Jing Wan shot a glance at the carriage driver, who’d heard everything yet didn’t have any reaction.

Under Gong mama’s assistance, Li Ru Yu was finally shoved onto the horse carriage.

Seeing the departing horse carriage in the distance, Jing Wan frowned, “That carriage driver feels strange.”

“There are many strange people in the world, who knows what’s wrong with this one. As long as he’s a perceptive one, he’ll know what he should say, and what he shouldn’t say.” And towards the living Enma sending someone to follow this matter from beginning to end, Gong mama didn’t find it strange in the least. However, the person picked this time wasn’t suitable, letting miss notice some clues.

“It’s not that, mama, I was just thinking that this carriage driver looked familiar.”

Gong mama’s heart skipped a beat. Truthfully speaking, even she couldn’t tell who exactly was the person sent. Carefully thinking it over, whenever miss directly came in contact with the living Enma, the people by his side were always those few. Seemingly aside from Mu An, there was only the ‘simultaneously holding onto the two position of both public and shadow guard’ An Yi left. As long as one checks whether or not the carriage driver just now was An Yi, one will know. If it really is An Yi, then a certain person will need to be even more careful when taking action in the future. After all, with miss being this sharp, if she were to discover something in advance, then…………

Gong mama sighed. Seemingly, even if miss discovers, the one to suffer a loss would still be miss. According to that living Enma’s personality, since you already know everything, then there’s no need for this prince to keep hiding it either. Afraid, he’ll just openly and brazenly come to steal fragrance, visiting a maiden’s chamber nightly.

“There are also many similar looking people in the world, perhaps miss just happened to have met someone that looked similar before.”

Jing Wan nodded. This was probably the case. Just a carriage driver, can’t raise any waves either. Even if he had her words repeated to the Cheng Junwang couple, what can possibly happen? Would Cheng Junwang use this as an excuse to come look for them? Or would Cheng Jun-wangfei use this to ruin her(JW) reputation?

“‘First time’, ‘second time’, and ‘brothels’, these things, where all did miss hear from? These aren’t things that a young miss should know about.” In front of outsiders, some words can’t be said, but if her miss makes a mistake, she should still say what she needs to say.

“Probably inadvertently saw when reading. Mama, no need to that strict.” Jing Wan felt guilty.

“At miss’s age, even if one knows some things, it actually isn’t that big of deal.” In large wealthy families, when a daughter reached a certain age, the elders would more or less all let them understand some ‘adult’ matters. In fact, there were even those yiniangs from special backgrounds that would even teach their own daughters ways to serve men in advance. “However, knowing is one thing, but saying it out loud is a whole separate matter. Letting someone hear, in the end, all won’t be good for Miss’s reputation.”

Jing Wan hurriedly coiled around Gong mama’s arm, “Mama, I know I was wrong. Next time, I will certainly pay attention.”

“This servant further hopes that miss won’t have a next time. However, miss has always understood propriety, and severity, rather don’t need for this servant to say too much either.”

“I know mama is considering for my sake. Mama loves me the same as one’s own daughter, your words, I will always listen and remember.”

“Miss is the master, this servant is a servant. As a servant, how is one worthy of treating the master as a daughter, disregarding hierarchy, very much inappropriate.”

“Alright, alright, mama, I spoke wrongly again. As my servant, one should have me at the center, considering for my sake on all things. And this heart, aside from me, can’t have anything else, and doing things for me was all what one is supposed to do.” To say she was rigid, yet sometimes she would just let her master be impulsive. To say she disregarded the rules, yet she was also rigorously proper, unscrupulously abiding by etiquette. However, there was one thing that was certain, and that is she really did consider for Jing Wan’s sake on all things. In this world, afraid, it was very difficult to find a more loyal and devoted servant than her. However, this kind of person, how was her previous master willing to let her go?

“Naturally so.”

Jing Wan inwardly rolled her eyes, she just knew it would be like this.

Gong mama caught sight of Jing Wan’s action, and couldn’t help but laugh inside. It was still best for miss to be a little more lively.

After returning, Jing Wan discovered, the room seemingly was filled with a somewhat peculiar atmosphere. The Chen family was awkward, while the people of the Luo family, a portion had a heavy look, while another portion had clear anger.

Seeing Jing Wan appear, the people of the Chen family looked as if they were seeing a savior. Chen third old master further smiled until his old face was full of creases, “That, Wan Wan ah, you know, your older cousin Min, he……….”

“Third (younger) brother.” Luo Old Madam neither lightly nor harshly interrupted his words. “Wan Wan is just an unmarried young lady. The one hurt the most in this matter is precisely her. She is normally strong-minded, and also a gentle and considerate child, having all things concealed inside, not willing to reveal, fearing that we would worry. She doesn’t blame Min boy, and even withdrew the engagement without any demands. She’s already able to do this much, don’t know what third brother still wants? ———Wan Wan, return to your own courtyard.”

Jing Wan roughly understood. This was after having the irrelevant people sent away, the two family’s turn to quarrel. Although she lived in this world for more than ten years, in the end, she wasn’t really someone ‘naturally grown’ here. Some things, she ultimately can’t completely incorporate into her own thoughts. For instance, she herself actually feel that this isn’t anything major, but in other people’s eyes, this wasn’t the case. At least, the rights and wrongs within needed to be reasoned.

“Grandmother, this matter………” The cause of this matter actually was still on her. Although, in reality, she didn’t do anything wrong either. It was all because of Li Ru Yu, that one with the broken brain, not properly reflecting on the problems on herself, having all the fault and resentment splashed onto Jing Wan, going as far as to say she stole Sun Yi Lin, and thus incurred her retaliation. If Li Ru Yu didn’t say so herself, Jing Wan wouldn’t have even thought to this point, only assuming that because she had repeatedly refused to give her face, thus offending her, that’s why she(LRY) thought of such a move. This was purely a bandit’s logic, but she precisely did this. The most innocent was actually still Chen Zheng Min. However, having easily gotten schemed against by a little girl, he really wasn’t all that innocent either, or rather should say, also a bit incompetent.

[1] This is ancient lingo for one-night stand. Technically it’s suppose to be translated as ‘dew water romance’, but it sounds sorta weird, so I got creative. Dew water is figurative speech for ‘short-lasting’ in chinese poetry.

T/N: Since there have been a lot of question about this issue, I’m making a note here to clarify, Junzhus(??) are not imperial princesses(??). Only the daughter of an Emperor is considered an imperial princess. The rule about having the forfeit a career in officialdom only applies to marrying an imperial princess(??) specifically. So in other words, the Emperor’s son-in-laws are not allowed to work in officialdom.

I know that junzhus often get translated as princess, which kinda bothers me, but I can understand because there’s really no english equivalent. But in concept, the role and position of a junzhu is very different from that of an imperial princess so they shouldn’t be lumped together.
