Time Travel: Brothel Maid

Fu Yaoning did not wait for Zhou Fangye to explain, and continued to say to Yingniang, "Is this young lady really unwell, or is she using the excuse of being unwell to avoid the issue? Could it be that she can't even write a poem?"

Fu Yaoning had a scornful smile on her face, with a sarcastic expression as if she was sure that you were an uneducated person, just a vase for others to play with and have fun.

Although girls from aristocratic families did not have to take the imperial examination, because the emperor of the Li Dynasty loved poetry and literature and highly respected it, all wealthy families would teach their girls poetry and songs.

Yingniang turned pale upon hearing this. She felt sad, hurt, and embarrassed. She stammered, trying to suppress her inferiority complex, and said in a trembling voice, "I am indeed..."

"Of course my sister can write poetry! Some people should not look down on others!"

Before Yingniang could finish her words, she was interrupted by Xiaoguo'er's angry voice behind her.

Upon hearing this, Fu Yaoning became furious and glared at Xiao Guoer.

It’s this arrogant and unruly servant again!

"What did you say!"

"Didn't you hear what I said? If your ears are not good, go see a doctor! What are you yelling about here?"

Xiao Guo'er had been displeased with these two dogs and had been holding back a rage in her heart for a long time. Now that she heard them making things difficult for Yingniang, how could she not explode?

Even though she was a rich lady who was not easy to offend, she really couldn't bear it!

Besides, there is the Eighth Prince who is probably interested in Yingniang, and General Chen who is obviously interested in Yingniang. She doesn't believe that these two powerful and important men will allow Yingniang to be bullied and her servants to be bullied!

As a rich lady, Fu Yaoning had never been insulted like this since she was a child. She was so angry that she pointed at Xiao Guoer and shouted, "How dare you, a servant, call me a dog who looks down on others? That's so outrageous! I'm going to teach you a lesson!"

Facing Fu Yaoning's rebuke, Xiao Guo'er was not in a hurry and responded slowly: "When did I scold you for looking down on others? I was clearly talking about 'some people'! Do you think you are that 'some people'?"

Huh, I'm so mad at you!

"You!" This was the first time in Fu Yaoning's life that she was angered to the point of losing her mind. She suppressed the surging blood in her chest and, regardless of her own identity, pushed away Zhou Fangye's hand that was holding her back and was about to rush up and tear the servant's mouth apart!

Unexpectedly, a man suddenly rushed out like a gust of wind, standing between the two of them, with an anxious look on his face, and advised: "Miss Fu, please calm down, don't get angry and hurt yourself, why bother with a mere servant."

Fu Yaoning looked closely and saw that it was a man with outstanding appearance. In her furious mind, she vaguely recalled that her brother had told her that he was the son of the Tang family. She felt a little regretful at that time and he was a merchant.

Just one servant, yet so many people are protecting him!

How could Fu Yaoning's anger be quelled by just one sentence? "I want to make a fuss about it!"

"Enough!" A thunderous roar, like a bolt of lightning splitting the sky, interrupted the voices of several people who were arguing.

Chen Fengyao, who had been silent all this time, spoke. Although it was just two simple words, they seemed to contain endless majesty and power, which instantly made Fu Yaoning shut up.

The general was so famous, and she, a mentally retarded woman, dared not disobey him even though she was a rich lady.

"If you want to write poetry, just write it. It's not proper to keep making noises!" Chen Fengyao's tone was stern and dissatisfied.

Zhou Fangye bowed hurriedly and said, "It is wrong to disturb General Chen's peace. We will leave now."

Chen Fengyao looked at Zhou Fangye who was bowing to him with disdain. He had thought that since she had competed with him for Yingniang, he would treat her well and cherish her, but he didn't expect that he would abandon her so soon. It was such a pity for Yingniang's deep love.

No matter how unwilling Fu Yaoning was, she had to temporarily let go of this servant who deserved to be cut into pieces!

But she had not forgotten Yingniang. Before leaving, she said to Yingniang, "Since you can write poems, write one and let me see. Otherwise, it will be that you are just making it up, and you are also lying!"

Fu Yaoning was sure that she could not write a poem, so she waited to see her make a fool of herself. Thinking that she would have to admit that she was an illiterate liar in a while, her anger subsided a little.

Just as the corner of her mouth curled up with a hint of expectation of seeing her make a fool of herself, she turned her gaze and was surprised to see General Chen staring at her with a dark face.

Why did General Chen look at her like that? So fierce! She panicked and hurriedly followed Zhou Fangye's footsteps and walked out.

General Chen looked at the disappearing Fu Yaoning and thought to himself, this woman is so noisy!

Then he turned his gaze to the pale Yingniang beside him. His originally cold and stiff facial lines gradually softened, and he said in a gentle voice, "It's okay if you can't write poetry. Don't be sad."

Yingniang nodded reluctantly. In fact, she was not sad because she could not compose poetry, but she was heartbroken because she once again clearly saw the huge gap between herself and Zhou Fangye.

She is a prostitute who can't even compose poetry. How can she be worthy of Zhou Fangye?

When Xiao Guoer saw the expression on Yingniang's face, she knew what she was thinking.

Although she hoped that Yingniang would break up with Zhou Fangye, it could not be because she felt inferior or that she was not worthy of Zhou Fangye!

Her elder sister is very good! She is good-looking, kind-hearted, plays the pipa very well, and is good at sewing. Although she was born in a brothel, she is devoted to only one man and is loyal to him.

It’s not her fault that she can’t write poetry!

It was Zhou Fangye who was not worthy of her, not her who was not worthy of Zhou Fangye!

Xiao Guoer leaned over and whispered in Yingniang's ear, "Sister, we have to give that couple a good slap in the face..."

The huge screen was almost covered with pages of poetry, but there were still people who were deep in thought or writing furiously, trying to create a masterpiece.

The Eighth Prince returned to the pavilion, listening to the faint admiration coming from the crowd, a determined smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

After Fu Yaoning and Zhou Fangye finished writing poems, they returned to the pavilion together.

Zhou Fangye didn't want to come again, but seeing that Fu Yao insisted on coming, he had no choice but to follow her.

After Fu Yaoning stood still, she gave Yingniang a sarcastic look, her eyes revealing provocation and disdain. It was as if she was saying: See, I knew you couldn't write poetry!

Look how I embarrass you!

Fu Yaoning pretended to be curious and asked, "Didn't you say you were going to write a poem? Why aren't you moving? Or have you already finished it?"

Upon hearing this, the Eighth Prince looked over and asked with great interest, "Oh? Which poem did the young lady write? I would like to appreciate it too."
