The Concubine's Daughter Travels Through Time and Space and Takes the Road of Confrontation

If there was one thing Lu Yun hated most, it was school bullying. When she noticed bruises on Jindan's arm, Lu Yun flew into a rage. With a serious expression, she gripped Jindan's hand tightly and pulled him forward. After struggling for a few moments, he found himself completely unable to move, being dragged forward.

Nanny Chang cried out "Ouch" a few times and quickly went forward, "Sister Yun, what happened today? Ah, Hui'er, Hui'er's sleeve--" One of Lu Hui's hands was held by his sister, and the other arm hung naturally with a sleeve torn in two pieces hanging on his shoulder. Balls of white cotton were exposed at the seam of the sleeve, and his face was flushed, probably because he was holding it in.

Zhang naturally noticed Hui'er's sleeves. Seeing that Hui'er was not unusual, she calmly put down her teacup and asked, "Yunjie'er, what's wrong?"

Zhang Yun pushed the golden egg brother into Zhang's arms. The fat boy rolled up his sleeves and said concisely, "Mother, brother is dirty here."

As the sleeves were rolled up, everyone in the room gasped. Zhang's pupils shrank slightly, and she saw three purple bruises on Hui'er's arms, which were as tender as spring lotus roots. It looked very scary. Zhang winked at Madam Chang, who nodded slightly and walked out quickly.

Zhang was in great pain and held Hui'er in her arms. Her eyes were red and she forced a smile and asked, "What has our Hui'er learned in school recently?"

Zhang gently pressed one of the bruises with her fingertips, and Hui'er hissed, "Mom, it hurts." Zhang turned her face away sadly and wiped her eyes with a handkerchief. As the weather gradually turned colder, Zhang changed the children's bathing schedule from every two days in the autumn to every five days. The last time they had bathed was two days ago.

With a stern look, Nanny Chang slammed the table and pointed at the little girl kneeling in front of her. "Tell me everything you have seen and heard during the past three days while you were with the young master. Don't miss a single word. Tell me in detail."

The little girl was named Xiao Jin, and she was nine years old. She was the youngest daughter of the steward Jin who had come to marry into the manor. Steward Jin had come to me privately and said he wanted to send his daughter to my wife to learn some manners for a while, and he also gave her five taels of silver.

Nanny Chang agreed. It just so happened that the young master hadn't chosen a servant yet, and it wasn't convenient for the older maids to go to the front yard, so a half-grown maid was just the right size to fill in for a while. But she didn't expect this to go wrong, and she wiped her face heavily.

Xiao Jin still didn't know what had happened. His face was pale and he began to recall what had happened in the past few days haltingly.

Nanny Chang held her breath, not wanting to miss a single word. "You said you've been seeing Master Cheng from the main house looking for his husband these past few days?"

Xiao Jin nodded timidly, "The alley leading to the academy is narrow. A few times, the servants walking beside Master Cheng accidentally bumped into our Master."

Nanny Chang snorted in her heart, and after questioning repeatedly and seeing that there were no mistakes, she returned to the main room.

Zhang personally took people to bathe Hui'er, and when she saw that there was nothing unusual on Hui'er's body, she felt relieved.

Nanny Chang walked quickly over and whispered a few words to the lady. Zhang rubbed her forehead tiredly. As expected, it was the eldest wife again.

Nanny Chang said angrily, "He was the one who bumped into people, and he was the one who kowtowed to apologize. He's so cunning at such a young age." Zhang raised her hand slightly to signal her to stop. "A while ago, the master specifically told me that Cheng, the eldest son of the master's family, was often confused about his schoolwork. Knowing that the teacher we hired was a successful Jinshi, he wanted to ask him some questions after class, so I agreed."

Zhang made a decision, "Master must not know about this." Nanny Chang opened her mouth and wiped away tears in pain, "Then what should we do about our brother's return?"

Yunjie, who was sitting on a small round stool eating fruit in the outer room, suddenly stood up and rushed into the house waving her fists, "Mom, hit him, Mom, hit him!"

Zhang lovingly hugged the chubby girl into her arms and said, "If it weren't for Sister Yun, you and I would still be in the dark today."

Lu Yun raised her head and said with all her might, "Mom, hit me." Hit me back, if you don't hit me, I will.

Zhang fell into deep thought as she listened to Yunjie'er's childish words. After a moment, she looked at Nanny Chang and whispered a few words. Nanny Chang's eyes lit up and she hurried away.

The next morning, Rong Jie'er was surprised to find her younger sister awake early. She sat at the table with a serious expression, her eyes fixed on the opposite side. Footsteps could be heard from the maids in the east wing, busy helping the young master wash and dress. Lu Yun ran over and sat next to Brother Jindan, her round face serious. "Brother, I'll go to the academy with you."

Hui Ge'er was still unconscious and was being helped to wash his face, his little head nodding.

Just take it as your promise, brother.

"Mom, my brother said he would take me to school." Zhang Yun said to Zhang seriously.

Nanny Chang said, "Brother is going to school. What are you doing with him? Don't disturb him."

Lu Yun sat down on the ground with her eyebrows drawn into a s-shape, her long and thick eyelashes trembling, and big tears flowing from her grape-like eyes. "Wow, Sister Yun wants to go with her brother - wow wow -" The little tuft of hair on her head swayed with the movements of its owner.

Zhang gave Nanny Chang a reproachful look and coaxed her, "Be good, brother will play with you when he comes back from school."

"But but," Zhang Yun pouted and cried, "Mom, my brother said he would take me with him." After saying that, she rubbed her eyes with her chubby little hands, and blinked at Zhang with tears in her remaining eye.

Zhang couldn't help but hug her and kiss her, then gave in and said, "Then let's wait for brother to come and ask him, okay?"

Always take the initiative.

"Brother, you said you would take me to school." Zhang Yun hugged Brother Jindan's legs and stared at him with her big eyes.

Hui'er frowned and recalled that his sister seemed to have asked this question, so he nodded.

Zhang Yun clapped her hands happily and looked at Zhang. Zhang had no choice but to agree and told Caihe to take good care of her young lady. After thinking for a moment, she packed a few more snacks and said, "Don't let my young lady go hungry."

Seeing this, Huiger asked his mother to pack a few packets for him as well, saying, "Huiger is hungry too. Let's eat together." Zhang Shou smiled and touched the top of his head.

Sniff, Zhang Yun sniffed. There were many bamboos planted in the front yard. Even though it was winter, she could still smell the fragrance of bamboo.

Silently remembering the path they had walked, they passed through a corner door and turned a corner, only to see a long and narrow corridor in front of them.

Lu Cheng hid in the corner of the corridor with his servant. He only looked a little like a master, with narrow eyes and a feminine aura. He looked at the people in the distance with malice, kicked the servant, and said hoarsely, "Did you remember everything I said?"

The servant nodded hurriedly and began to stretch his muscles. "Don't worry, Master."

Zhang Yun cried out "Ouch!" and looked at Caihe, "Sister Caihe, my purse fell."

Cai He searched carefully but didn't find the purse. She looked up and saw that there was no one on the road. She recalled the road she had just walked and said to herself, "Maybe it was caught by a bamboo branch when passing through the bamboo forest. My brother and my lady, please stand here and don't move. I will be back soon."

Lu Yun nodded obediently.
