The next morning, Meng Yucheng slept until almost noon before coming out of the room. Lin Heng and others had been waiting in the garden for a long time. Although they had to wait for a long time, no one dared to urge him, let alone complain.

Seeing him half asleep and trying to stay awake, Lin Heng said with a smile, "Good morning, Brother Meng. It seems that the beauty was very good at serving people last night!"

Yesterday, several people drank a lot of wine and made a lot of noise for a while, but Meng Yucheng felt that it was not enough. He asked the guards to go to the most famous brothel in Shangjing overnight to recruit a few beautiful prostitutes. Lin Heng and several other young masters were usually strictly controlled by their families, but here, no one was watching over them, so they completely let themselves go.

But he was still afraid that this was the manor of the Marquis's manor, and he had to accompany Meng Yucheng to hunt the next day, so he didn't dare to be too presumptuous. But Meng Yucheng didn't restrain himself at all, making a fuss for most of the night, and he almost couldn't get up today.

Hearing Lin Heng's words, Meng Yucheng laughed twice and casually replied: "It's OK, the girls in the building are all the same. How do you feel, brother Heng?"

Lin Heng actually experienced this kind of thing for the first time yesterday. He was too embarrassed to talk about it in front of everyone, so he just chuckled twice and changed the subject under everyone's teasing eyes and asked, "Are we still going to the mountain today?"

"No, I've been riding for two days straight, so I'll just take a day off today."

Hearing this, several people secretly breathed a sigh of relief. They were not like Meng Yucheng, who rode horses outside every day when he was in Jinling. On weekdays, they rode horses at most to stroll around the streets of Shangjing. They couldn't stand riding and hunting for the past two days. Every night when they returned to their rooms, they would secretly ask the servants to massage them and relax their muscles.

But during the day, no one dared to say they were tired, for fear of disturbing Meng Yucheng's interest and not letting them play. After all, Meng Yucheng's status was the highest among them, and several people wanted to curry favor with him.

Now that they heard Meng Yucheng say he would not go, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and happily surrounded him to stroll around the farm.

Zhu'er had been hiding in the front yard early in the morning to spy, but she didn't hear any movement after wandering around for a long time. Just when she thought that the young masters had gone to the mountains to hunt again and were about to return, she happened to see a few people escorting the young master who was dressed the most gorgeously. It seemed that they were staying in the manor today and would not go out.

On this side, Aunt Miao, who just came out to serve tea, saw Zhu'er peeking around and became a little nervous.

After putting down the tea, he hurried back to the kitchen and found Miao Dashan who was cleaning the chickens and ducks. He told him what he had just seen Zhu'er. He asked, "Master, the distinguished guests are not going out today. I think the two in the room seem to want to do something. Are we really going to ignore it?"

Miao Dashan put down the knife in his hand, threw the motionless chicken aside, wiped his hands and said, "What do you care? Think about the instructions of the Marquis' Mansion, and we will pretend that we don't know."

"Then...if Miss Ye seduces..."

"Damn it!" Miao Dashan roared softly, stopping her from talking, and whispered: "The affairs of the Marquis' Mansion have nothing to do with us. We don't want to harm anyone, and neither does the young lady. Everything is her own choice!"

"I know..." Aunt Miao stroked her chest, "I just feel that this wealthy family has so many twists and turns."

After that, she said no more, picked up the chicken on the ground and went to the side to clean it up. Miao Dashan looked at her nervous expression and sighed. This was just the beginning!

At this time, in Ye Shiyue's room, Zhu'er was standing beside Ye Shiyue and whispered, "Miss, I saw it clearly. The young master of Nanling was very imposing and handsome. The jade crown on his head was obviously not an ordinary item. They are all staying at the manor today. Miss, you must seize the opportunity!"

Ye Shiyue sat at the table, holding her handkerchief tightly, staring at the door without saying a word.

Seeing that she was a little anxious, Zhu Er urged her, "Miss, please make a decision quickly. If you miss this opportunity, it will be gone!"

"Please help me dress up and change my clothes." Ye Shiyue retracted her gaze and said resolutely.

"Okay, I will dress the young lady up to make her look as beautiful as a fairy." Zhu'er said happily.

On Meng Yucheng's side, several people were roasting meat and drinking in the small pavilion in the yard. It didn't matter whether it was noon or night, they just enjoyed themselves. There was also a beautiful woman playing the zither beside them, and they were having a great time.

Meng Yucheng drank a few more cups, and because he didn't get enough rest last night, he felt a little dizzy. He stood up and prepared to take a breath of cold air by the pavilion to wake himself up. Suddenly, he saw a pink and slender figure appearing under a plum tree in the yard from a distance.

She was wearing a pink jacket and skirt, a white cape, a white fox fur around her neck, her hair tied up with a jade hairpin, her skin was as white as jade, her mouth was as white as a cherry, and her face was as beautiful as a lotus. She looked like a fairy from heaven in this simple farmhouse.

Meng Yucheng was so fascinated by her that he didn't feel dizzy or uncomfortable at all. He had never seen such a beauty before. Moreover, in this dilapidated courtyard in winter, the beauty's tender little hands were holding the withered plum tree, and her face was full of sorrow, which made him feel even more pitiful.

The beauty seemed to feel his burning gaze. She glanced in his direction, took two steps back as if frightened, and turned around to walk towards the courtyard at the back.

Seeing this, Meng Yucheng hurriedly chased after her, "Miss, please stay." He shouted as he ran, and saw that the beauty really stopped. He excitedly approached, straightened his clothes, and then walked in front of her carefully, bowed, "Miss, I am honored!"

Ye Shiyue returned the greeting nervously, then moved aside and hid behind Zhu'er. Zhu'er also quickly turned sideways to hide her tightly, revealing only a glimpse of her profile.

Meng Yucheng was a little disappointed that he couldn't see anyone, but he still said politely: "Don't be afraid, young lady, I'm not a bad person. My name is Meng Yucheng, born in Nanlingbo Mansion, and I came to stay at the manor this time at the invitation of a good friend."

After saying this, she smiled gently at the master and servant, but the beauty was still hiding behind the maid, and replied timidly: "I didn't mean to disturb you, sir. I hope you can forgive me. There are differences between men and women, so please be kind and let me go back quickly."

Meng Yucheng felt half of his body soften when he heard this voice, and he was even more reluctant to let her leave. He couldn't help but step forward and said, "I am fortunate to meet you, young lady. This is our fate. May I ask which young lady in the Marquis' Mansion you are?"

As soon as the words came out, the beauty let out a long sigh with unspeakable sadness, but shook her head without saying anything.

"Miss, do you have any unspeakable secrets?" Hearing the sigh, Meng Yucheng asked softly.

The beauty did not speak. The maid standing in front of her said, "My young lady originally came to the capital to look for her relatives, but she did not find them and had no money to return home. The manager of this farm took pity on us and kindly took us in. But from now on... oh, I don't know what to do."

Meng Yucheng's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he asked hurriedly, "What's the name of your relative? I have some connections in the capital, why don't you come back with me and I'll help you find him?"
