The Difference Between Cloud and Mud [15]
Dong Ling’s eyes widened and she exclaimed in a clear voice: “Second young miss, your reputation right now, is not suitable with the Princess on a single horse carriage. Later on, when we arrive at the college and people have seen this, it will damage my family’s Princess’s reputation. Then that means it will be damaging the royal family’s reputation. This kind of huge crime, you probably aren’t able to take upon it yourself.”
“You are only a small maid, what nonsense are you speaking of!!?” Xiao Yun heard this and was so angry that she couldn’t even form words. It was her maid, Xia He, who was unwilling to take in the insults and sharply responded.
“Slap yourself!” Huang Bei Yue who was resting suddenly opened her eyes. Her cold eyes swept in front of Xia He. That severe imposing manner immediately scared Xia He to the point where she moved her body closer to herself.
“This Princess is here resting. Who gave you the permission to start shouting?”Huang Bei Yue lazily exclaimed as though a cat.
Xia He’s face gradually turned red. In the past, this Huang Bei Yue was a useless person whom they had bullied however they liked. Now, she had suddenly become the prefecture of Princess Zhang’s savior. Everyone depended on her breath to live. For a while, Xia He wasn’t able to accept this, still thinking of herself as the maid who depended on the genius Xiao Yun and was able to oppress others. She turned her face over, not putting Huang Bei Yue’s words into her eyes.
This girl had some moral integrity!
Huang Bei Yue laughed coldly: “The people that second sister had trained had such a huge attitude ah.”
Xiao Yun’s face contained faint content that Xia He wasn’t frightened by Huang Bei Yue’s imposing manner which had won some faces back for her.
“The third sister is over complimenting me. How can Xia He compare to Dong Ling’s cleverness ah?”
“The second young miss is complimenting Dong Ling to the point where she felt embarrassed. Dong Ling naturally doesn’t dare to compare herself to Sister Xia He. When Sister Xia He walks out of the prefecture of Princess Zhang, she is representing the second young miss – you. Just that, many people needed to give Sister Xia He some faces ah.” Dong Ling’s face was piled with a smile.
Once Xia He heard this, she was proud too: “That is because my family’s young miss is Nan Yi Country’s genius female summoner. Other people needed to give her some faces is all.”
This flattery by Xia He had momentarily made Xiao Yun feel better. She smiled and casted a side glance towards Huang Bei Yue, the tone including mockery: “On Ka Er Ta Mainland, martial arts is respected. When comparing summoners to normal people, that is the difference between cloud and mud.”
Dong Ling really wanted to laugh out loud. Sixteen years old, three-star summoner, wanted to show off in front of young miss?
Young miss was only twelve years old this year and already is a nine-star summoner. She held possession of the Ice Spirit Luan Bird plus she is a refining pharmacist!
Just who is cloud and who is mud?
However, these, if said out loud, wouldn’t be fun anymore if it had scared Xiao Yun to death.
Dong Ling had just let out a humph out of her nose. The smile on her face slowly faded away. The voice was also cold: “What this maid is saying isn’t complimenting the second young miss – you! The second young miss is usually smart so how come you don’t understand it now?”
Xiao Yun’s face became red and really hadn’t understood what Dong Ling’s words meant.
Xia He stated: “What are you trying to say? You dare to insult the second young miss?”
“I am insulting you – this wicked servant!” Dong Ling coldly shouted. “You are depending on the second young miss who is easy on you and going out to show off because of that. By doing that, you are ruining your family’s young miss’s reputation! Those who don’t know will be thinking that the second young miss is also like you, this wicked servant – a person who likes to oppress others and not educated!”
Dong Ling had a smart mouth. While speaking, on one hand, her eyes swept over to Xiao Yun’s stunned face.
This fire wasn’t burning enough so she will continue to add the woods.
“In the usual days, this is no big deal. However, now people are talking behind the second young miss’s back. They are saying that she doesn’t understand etiquette. By having you – this wicked servant going out to stir troubles, isn’t that claiming the truth that the second lady is the type of person who doesn’t know her manners?”
