Blissful Days After Widowhood - Chapter 205

The man was blushing and smelled of alcohol; he was obviously drunk.

The people next to him laughed. 

“Is Brother Rong drunk? This is the black cook in the kitchen, not the charming little lady in Chu Pavilion.”

Guard Rong narrowed his eyes with difficulty, and finally saw that standing in front of him was a black-faced person. Gu Yin, who deliberately made herself black, immediately let go of his hand and spat, “Unfortunate!”

The others burst into laughter, and they didn’t know who started to say, “Come on, come on, in a new game, just use this black cook as a bet, and the loser will have to kiss her, do you dare?”

They were all vigorous young men, who would say no at the wine and gambling table?

Gu Yin was about to run away, but someone grabbed her arm. The dice was shaken again, and several people quickly threw them one after another, and the one with the smallest number was Guard Rong.

“Haha, Brother Rong you really have ‘good luck’ today!”

“Brother Rong, it’s not shameful to admit defeat!”

Everyone laughed and pushed Guard Rong who lost the bet to get up.

The man was drunk and embarrassed. His face turned red, and finally he accepted the gamble and gave in, and went to pull Gu Yin again.

Gu Yin hurriedly retreated and said, “Sir, please forgive this woman, this woman has an ugly face and is married!”

“It’s good to be a married woman! Hahaha, only those who have been married know how hot and cold it is,” others continued.

Otherwise, it would be eaten by a dog. 

Gu Yin had nowhere to hide and could only think so helplessly.

Suddenly, a hand stretched out from behind her and clasped the hand of Guard Rong accurately.

“Who?” Guard Rong was already in a fit of anger, and when he was stopped, he became more annoyed. When he saw that it was the deaf and mute lame young man who stopped him, he said angrily, “How dare you stop me?”

The others didn’t come forward to help, they just hurriedly said, “Did this waste and black cook stay together for a few days, and become a couple? Brother Rong has become a person who is rejected! Ha ha ha ha……”

The hostility in the young man’s eyes disappeared in a flash, but then he let go and showed the plate of peanuts in his hand, indicating that he was there to deliver snacks.

He limped and put the appetizers on the table. Suddenly, he tilted his body and threw himself directly on the small table. The small table was pressed by his tall body and immediately fell apart. Pai Gow, dice, Wine jars and dishes were scattered all over the place.

That time it wasn’t just Guard Rong who was angry, everyone else was also angry.

“You can’t even walk, lame man, right?!”

Everyone’s fists fell like raindrops, and the beaten youth held his head and begged for mercy.

And Gu Yin had already seen the right time to go out, and invited Eunuch Shang Shan who was also in the yard.

Eunuch Shangshan kept turning a blind eye. At that time, the movement was so loud that he sold Gu Yin’s face and rushed over to persuade, “Lords, please don’t do something at this juncture! After all, these are the people who make food for his majesty!”

The Emperor was not easy to get along with.

Especially in that state, if they beat people out in the mansion, they would be the first to be punished.

The guards were also afraid of that, stopped their hands angrily, and spat, “It’s just right for the trash to match the ugly!”

When Eunuch Shangshan coaxed the guards away, Gu Yin immediately stepped forward to help the young man up.

“How are you? Does it hurt?” She tried to speak slowly.

The young man shook his head and waved his hand to indicate that he did not need her to help him, and stood up by himself.

The two returned to the kitchen, and Gu Yin asked him to sit next to her while she boiled an egg.

After the egg was boiled, she peeled off the shell, wrapped the egg with gauze, and asked him to roll up his sleeves to help him get rid of the bruises.

The young man waved his hands repeatedly, indicating that he would do it.

Gu Yin insisted, “Let me do it, or let me do something for you.”

After getting in touch those days, she knew that although the young man in front of her was lame, whether he was chopping wood or carrying water, he walked steadily. The fall he just fell, naturally, deliberately was to help her.

Only then did the young man roll up his sleeves to his wrists, and Gu Yin realized that he still had a lot of bruises on his hands. It wasn’t new, but there were still several days of injuries. Not only did he get bruised, he also had old wounds on his arms caused by other sharp tools. Although the scars had healed, it was still shocking to look at.

A deaf and mute person could live to such an age, and she had no idea how much he had suffered.
