Chapter 80
Translator: NovelMultiverse | Editor: NovelMultiverse
She originally thought that the other party who attacked her from behind, that was very fast and nimbly dodging her, must be an agile young man . Unexpectedly, the person in front of her was dressed in a blue silk shirt, with white hair around the temples, a fair face, the corners of the eyes, and forehead covered in wrinkles . It turned out to be an old lady who was at least nearly sixty years old .
Taking advantage of Yu Linglong’s stunned moment, the old lady stepped back, freed herself from Yu Linglong’s restraint, and smiled faintly . Even her wrinkles deepened a bit .
“Are you the Fourth Girl? You really are very skilled . ”
Yu Linglong squinted her eyes slightly . In this deep mountain and old forest, there was probably only one person who dared to call her the Fourth Girl .
Guessing that the old lady in front of her was precisely Lady Yu, Yu Linglong had no intention of paying her respects at all . She patted the dust off her hands and looked sharply at Lady Yu: “What do you mean?”
The smile on Lady Yu’s face grew stronger and stronger: “What, is it wrong for me as a grandmother to test my granddaughter’s skills?”
Yu Linglong snorted coldly . She attacked her from behind just to test her?
This old lady really dared to play . Did she know that if she just pulled a little harder on her hands, she would be able to snap her neck!?
Lady Yu had lived in the mountains for a long time and felt bored, so she wanted to practice her skills, right?
She really didn’t know how the old lady’s temper would be after having lived alone on the mountain for so many years .
Lady Yu didn’t care what mood Yu Linglong was in . She brushed the dust off her silk shirt and stretched out her hand with a smile: “Come, help me in . ”
Yu Linglong frowned slightly . She didn’t know what the old lady was thinking . After a pause, she took the hand extended by Lady Yu .
The two of them entered the building, and the maid followed them and held a lamp . Lady Yu pointed to the woman who had just come in and said, “I didn’t let her go out just now when she came in . I just wanted to test your skills . Don’t blame her . ”
Yu Linglong gave her a cold look, and she was so scared that she knelt down quickly: “I knew I was wrong, please forgive me, Fourth Lady!”
Lady Yu smiled and said, “Little girl, how come you never speak or smile? You are scaring the servants . ”
After speaking, she waved her hand on her own initiative: “Relax, the Fourth Girl will not punish you . ”
Yu Linglong was a little annoyed . Lady Yu made a fool out of her the second she arrived . Although she didn’t suffer any losses, she felt very surprised . Anyone who was kept in the dark would feel unhappy .
However, this old lady had a kind and affectionate face, and her attitude made her want to be angry, but she didn’t know who to be angry towards .
Seeing Yu Linglong’s calm and silent face, Lady Yu smiled and said, “What, are you still angry with me? You are such a young girl, but your temper is so strong!”[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse . com]
Yu Linglong said coldly: “You have to go to bed early to get up early tomorrow and hurry!”
She didn’t want to have anything to do with anyone in the Yu family . This old lady’s apparently enticing behavior made her feel repelled immediately .
Lady Yu didn’t care about Yu Linglong’s cold face, but she was very happy: “Little girl, you are very angry at me . ”
After saying this, she raised her voice: “Go and prepare wine and food . The Fourth Girl wants to drink a few drinks with me!”
Yu Linglong was speechless . What kind of old lady was this, talking to herself and having fun? She didn’t know how someone with such a free temper could endure the lonely time on the mountain .
Before going up the mountain, she thought that Lady Yu would be an old lady like the one in the TV series Dream of the Red Chamber . She would walk tremblingly, with her silver hair, graceful and luxurious . Even if she was not, she should be an old lady with a dignified face, holding prayer beads, with a kind brow .
But this old grandmother in front of her, with her bright eyes, sharp speech, straight back, and agility, was not like the grandmother of a big family, but like an acrobat in a modern town square practicing sword-fighting, a type of stay-at-home old lady who, after exercising, could go straight to the market .
How could Yu Peng, a cold, selfish man, have such a mother?
Obviously, the small kitchen in the nunnery had prepared in advance, and in a short while, a dozen dishes were placed on a table full of dishes .
Lady Yu took the lead in picking up her chopsticks and greeting Yu Linglong for a meal: “It’s hard for you, a little girl, to patiently climb such a high mountain, to pick up an old lady . Are you hungry? Come, come and eat!”
Now that she mentioned it, Yu Linglong really felt a little hungry . She slowly picked up her chopsticks and looked at the table full of dishes . For a while, she didn’t know what to eat .
Lady Yu obviously had a good appetite . She took a bite of tofu and said with a smile: “I’m used to eating fast, but I don’t know if these dishes would suit your taste . You can try them . ”
When she said that, she pointed to the dish she had just picked from and said, “Look at this, it’s called “Abundance of Wealth . ” The name sounds pretty good, but it’s actually just made of tofu and corn . ”
Yu Linglong tasted it . This dish looked ordinary, but it was sweet and soft in her mouth . It was obviously especially prepared for the elderly .
Seeing her nod slightly, Lady Yu ordered another dish in the distance with her chopsticks, and the maid on the side immediately brought it in front of them .
“The water on this mountain is good . The vegetables and shiitake mushrooms that grow here are very watery . If you go back to your home, you won’t be able to taste this . ”
Yu Linglong picked up a piece of greens, but she felt that it was different from the ones she had eaten before . The juice overflowed in her mouth, and her mouth was suddenly full of the rich and sweet taste of the mountains and the wild .
Yu Linglong had never tasted such exotic delicacies, but she had never tasted these pure and simple flavors . She couldn’t help but proclaim: “It’s really delicious . ”
Lady Yu immediately showed a smug expression: “Right?”
Then, Lady Yu asked the maid beside her to pour wine for Yu Linglong: “The spring water on this mountain is so delicious, and the wine is even better . I have kept this wine for many years . How would you like to taste it? “
The maid carefully took out a small wine jar . As soon as the clay on the jar was opened, the building was filled with a rich aroma of wine .
Yu Linglong looked at Lady Yu with interest: “Aren’t you here to eat vegetarian food and recite sutras? How can you drink?”
Lady Yu stared at her: “The wine is made from grain, not meat, so it’s not cheating!”
As she spoke, she immediately changed the subject: “Taste it, I haven’t had this wine in years!”
Yu Linglong couldn’t help smiling . Lady Yu’s irrational arguments were really cute .
However, she started to admire the old lady . She drank if she wanted to drink, and punched if she wanted to punch . This was a straightforward life .
A long line of wine came out of the bottle and fell from above into the small wine cup with celadon orchids, and the unique aroma of aging wine hit her nose, which made her feel a little drunk .
Under the eager gaze of the old lady, Yu Linglong took a sip from the wine cup . The wine had a strong aroma, but it was light upon first taste, which surprised her . She felt that the aftertastes came one after another, the sweetness of the spring water and the softness of the glutinous rice . With bursts of primitive taste, layer by layer rushing like a tide, the tip of the tongue was still sweet and glutinous, and her mouth was already exploding with richness . When it reached her throat, it was like rushing spring water flowing into the sea, leaving behind the lingering aftertaste .
