Chapter 7: A household client

Translator: Guy Gone Bad

Ji Wujin walked out of Xiao Panpan’s room with puzzles and ran into those women who were chatting in the yard.

After breakfast, they were gathering around to enjoy the sunshine. Some were embroidering while they were gossiping.

Having a lot going on her mind, Ji Wujin sighed and walked into the yard to join the women.

All those women gave her a despise look and looked away.

They kept talking as if they didn’t see her, having no intention to invite her to join them.

“You know what? Very soon, something big will happen to the city.”

The girl with bucktooth was the most talkative one where she went. She was enjoying eating sunflower seeds which she got somewhere.

Her words immediately drew a few gossiping women’s attention.

Gu Qingqing was in the yard too. But she was leaning on a stone chair by supporting her head with one elbow in a small octagon pavilion in the center of the yard. The way she was enjoying the sunbath made she look harmless and relaxing.

“What’s new?”

The bucktooth girl gave Gu Qingqing a proud look. Obviously, she was satisfactory with Gu Qingqing’s interest in her topic.

“Told you I know stuff. Yesterday, the fool who spent the night with me, don’t laugh. He is a farmer indeed, but he knows stuff.”

“Come on, Zhenzhen, how can a farmer know something big.” An ugly girl argued.

“You really look down upon him. I am telling you. He heard of the news just because he is a farmer. Two days ago, when he was working in the field, a group of rich men went to his house, rent his house for a few days, and kicked him out of the house.”

“You must be kidding. If they were rich, why would they rent a farmer’s house?”

The ugly woman was not the only one who didn’t believe it. Neither did Ji Wujin who nodded with doubts.

Only Gu Qingqing frowned.

“Psst. Don’t interrupt her. Zhenzhen, go ahead.”

“Qingqing got the point. The rest of you are blockheads! Use your brain, ok? Where do you think the stupid man get the money to spend a happy night with me?”

A happy night? Ji Wujin doubted it deeply in mind.

The women nodded thoughtfully, and the bucktoothed girl continued to gossip mysteriously about what she called “something new”, “Wang Er lives in a remote village in the middle of nowhere. Surprisingly, they found that place. The group was mysterious. About twenty of them on tall horses protected a cart of four horses in the middle. When they saw Wang Er, they gave him a pound of silver and told him to disappear. Wang Er was curious and asked the horse boy who they were before he left after packing a small bag of clothes. Guess what? The horse boy slapped him directly and warned him if he wanted an answer or his head!”

“Wow… That cool?”

“Think about it. Do you think a horse body with that kind of attitude can be a nobody? Absolutely someone big! And… ”

“And what? Come on! Tell us all!”

“Wang Er told me that dignitary is super handsome like a god. He was noble and decent like an immortal god.”

“Does he even more handsome and noble than Gu Ye? I don’t believe it.”

“Yes. Yes. How can a farmer tell what is handsome or ugly? Maybe he is just an ordinary person.”

“Yes. Yes. If there is anyone who is handsome, attractive, charming, noble in the city, it has to be Gu Ye, no one else. No one can top our dear Gu Ye.”

“Bah! Is Gu Ye just handsome, attractive, charming, noble? You don’t get to the point. The most important thing is, he is…”

“Super rich!”

A chorus of shouts broke out. Ji Wujin was startled by their sudden voice.

“He is also an evil. He is greedy man of corruption, also a rotten politician. I don’t see anything good in him.”

Ji Wujin murmured to herself, although the ugly women were telling the truth too.

Anyone lived or stayed in the city knew Gu Ye and Ji Wujin grew up in the city and begged for food for ages.

Gu Ye was a household name known to any age range from two-year-old baby to 80-year-old old men.

Storytellers usually shared his recent situation in public on a regular basis. No one got tired of it. Ji Wujin had heard his story for 13 years, until now she was Hua Wujiao.

Gu Ye was best known for his corruption and accepting a massive amout of bribes.

Everyone knew that. Rumor said that even the emperor knew it.

However, Gu Ye was a talented politician. As a highly-ranked Prime Minister who was only seconded to the emperor, he could manage to stay where he was for more than ten years despite the condition, he was notorious for corruption.

It was said that he was gorgeous, attractive, stunning-looking, and noble by nature. Playing with power was one of his gifts. It was obvious that he was super wealthy and powerful since he was assigned as Right Prime Minister at the age of 20.

Women in the city didn’t understand or cared about the national matters. What they really cared was that Gu Ye, who was on his prime time, was still unmarried. Gu Ye, therefore, was a dream for every girl in the city.

Girls in the city had the same dream: one day, Gu Ye would fall in love with her when he laid his eyes on her for the first time. He would marry her right away and make her the first lady of his family. Then she could splash money like water…

For entire morning, those women kept gossiping nonsense and had the same fight at lunch time as they had at breakfast. After the fight, Ji Wujin went back to her room with her worn-out body. She was exhausted physically and mentally. It was not easy to grab a bite no matter where she was.

It was hot in summer. Ji Wujin still took a nap.

When she woke up, it was already dark outside.

It was a big red window in front of her eyes, and the illuminating red lantern by the window blew her mind. She bounced on her feet.

“Is it already evening? Isn’t it our business time?!”

She dashed out quickly. She had been waiting for such a critical moment for entire day!

Before she made it to the front hall, women’s fake giggles gave her goose bumps and made her feel gross.

As she ran closer to the front hall, the giggles were louder. Finally, after she passed the last threshold outside the courtyard, she made it the where the giggles were, the front gate of the building.

Although she had prepared for this in advance, she was still mortified by what she saw.
