Chapter 50 A Woman with Impure Motives
Everyone came to a place called Qingyun Town to rest. Nothing happened that night. The next morning, after they had their meal, they got on the carriage and prepared to set off.
The group had not walked far when a group of onlookers blocked their way.
Zan Feng rode forward and politely asked the people to make way. Those who were blocking the road also consciously moved to the sides of the road.
Meng Kexin and Ye Muyuan were passing by the street when they saw a woman in mourning clothes kneeling on the side of the road with a sign next to her that read "Selling myself to bury my father."
Meng Kexin's heart moved and she wanted to go forward to help the woman. But Ye Muyuan held her back and said, "This woman might be a liar. We should not be fooled easily."
Meng Kexin asked in confusion: "How do you know she is a liar?"
Ye Muyuan said: "Look at her eyes, there is no sadness at all, and although her clothes are worn out, they are very clean. She doesn't look like a truly poor person."
Meng Kexin felt that Ye Muyuan's words made sense, but she still couldn't bear to see the woman suffer. She said, "Maybe she really is in trouble. We can first understand the situation."
Ye Muyuan said helplessly: "Okay, go ask her."
Meng Kexin and Ye Muyuan walked up to the woman and asked, "Young lady, why are you selling yourself to bury your father?"
The woman raised her head, glanced at Meng Kexin, and said, "My father passed away. I don't have money to buy him a coffin, so I can only sell myself for burial."
Meng Kexin then asked, "How did your father die?"
"My father was a businessman. He was cheated while doing business outside and owed a lot of debts. In the end, he was forced to death by his creditors."
"Then why don't you ask your relatives and friends for help?"
"I have no relatives or friends. I was an orphan since I was young and was raised by my father."
Meng Kexin felt very sad when she heard this. She felt sorry for the woman and decided to help her. She said, "Girl, don't sell yourself to bury your father. I can give you money to buy a coffin for your father."
The woman's eyes flashed with surprise, but it quickly faded. She said, "Thank you, young lady. I appreciate your kindness. But I can't just take your money for nothing. I want to repay you in my own way."
Meng Kexin said: "You don't have to repay me, I just want to help you."
The woman said, "No, I must repay you. I can be your maid and serve you for the rest of my life."
Meng Kexin said: "I don't need a maid, I just want to help you."
The woman glanced at Ye Muyuan and said, "Sir, I know you two are a couple, but I can be your mistress and bear children for you."
Meng Kexin was shocked when she heard this. She hadn't expected this woman to say such a thing. "Ridiculous!" Ye Muyuan shouted angrily, "We are helping you out of kindness, yet you are so shameless!"
The woman was stunned. She didn't expect Ye Muyuan to be so angry.
Meng Kexin was also frightened by Ye Muyuan's reaction. She pulled the corner of Ye Muyuan's clothes and said softly, "Don't be so fierce. She is desperate."
Ye Muyuan looked at Meng Kexin, his eyes full of heartache. He sighed, took out a bag of silver from his pocket and handed it to the woman, "This is the cost of burying your father. Take it and leave quickly."
The woman took the silver and thanked him repeatedly with tears of gratitude.
After the woman left, Ye Muyuan gently put his arm around Meng Kexin's shoulders and said softly, "I'm sorry, I scared you just now."
Meng Kexin shook her head and smiled, saying, "I'm fine. I just didn't expect her to say that. But you were so manly just now!"
Ye Muyuan smiled and pinched Meng Kexin's nose lovingly, "I only do this to you." The two smiled at each other and left in the car.
However, they didn't know that the woman who sold herself to bury her father was not as honest as she seemed. She returned home and gave the banknotes to her brother, asking him to use the money to bury her father.
She herself took a shortcut to catch up with the departing carriage of Meng Kexin and the others.
Ye Muyuan and the others had just stepped out of the city gate when they heard a sudden burst of urgent shouting. They turned around and saw the woman chasing them, panting.
Her face was full of earnestness and her eyes were full of pleading. She shouted to Ye Muyuan: "Young Master, please be kind and take me with you! Since I have accepted the silver you gave me, I have decided to serve you for the rest of my life and am willing to be yours!" This sudden scene shocked everyone present.
Meng Kexin didn't know what was wrong with her. When she heard the woman say that, her heart felt like it was blocked by a ball of cotton and she felt depressed.
Ye Muyuan said coldly: "Since the silver I gave you caused the trouble, then return the silver I gave you. Then, we will have nothing to do with each other."
The woman's eyes widened in surprise, and she looked at Ye Muyuan in disbelief. "Sir, I have already given the silver you gave to my brother so that he could properly bury my father. I don't have any left."
Ye Muyuan was so angry that he laughed. This laugh made the woman fall in love with him even more. The young man in front of her was dressed luxuriously and had an extraordinary demeanor. It was obvious that he was a young man from a wealthy family. If she followed him, she would definitely not live a hard life anymore.
Then Ye Muyuan continued, "I'm telling you, either return the silver or go home. I already have a lover and I won't accept you."
Seeing her plan was about to fail, the woman cried and said, "Sir, as long as I stay by your side, I am willing to be a slave or a maid. I only ask that you take me in."
Meng Kexin was really impatient when she heard this. She said in a cold voice, "Go back and don't follow us anymore. If you continue to follow us, return the silver. If you want to sell yourself to bury your father, go back to the streets and sell yourself. We don't have that much time to waste with you."
The woman looked at Ye Muyuan hesitantly, hoping that he would ask her to stay. She was very confident in her appearance, and she didn't believe that the young man would not feel pity for her when she looked so tearful.
"Get out!" Ye Muyuan opened his thin lips and spat out a word coldly.
The woman's tears fell instantly, and she looked so pitiful!
"Let's go." Meng Kexin ordered Lei Can.
"Yes!"
Lei Can swung the whip and hit the horse's butt. The carriage narrowly missed the woman's body. The woman was so scared that she fell to the ground and got up to chase after him.
Lei Can whipped his horsewhip in front of the woman, almost hitting her face. "If you dare to chase me again, don't blame me for being rude!"
The woman was frightened and could only watch the carriage go farther and farther away. She bit her lip unwillingly.
"Ms. Meng, are you just going to let her go like that?" Lei Can turned around and looked at Meng Kexin.
"There's no need to pay attention to this kind of person." Meng Kexin said indifferently.
Ye Muyuan looked at Meng Kexin, and a secret affection grew in his heart. He realized that he had developed a special feeling for this special woman.
