Chapter 2097: Chapter 2097: This ti it’s really serious
Watching the maid retreat and leave, Madam Xue felt even more helpless and shook her head.
“I hope this punishnt will make Manyu reflect and repent.”
However, she didn’t hold much hope for that, as the nature of her daughter was set in stone, irreversible. Sotis she even wondered if soone switched her child at birth.
Otherwise, how could it be that out of her five children, only Xue Manyu was such a character?
…
“Sister Hua, sothing terrible has happened.”
In the courtyard of Xue Manyu, the maids had completely let loose due to their young mistress being punished and confined in the Ancestral Shrine.
Usually, no one would dare to raise their voice in the courtyard, but now no one cared anymore. A little maid dashed in from outside, screaming as she ran.
“What’s the matter that you’re so panicked? Don’t you know this is Third Miss’s courtyard? If Third Miss finds out, she won’t spare you!”
The maid referred to as Sister Hua was a personal attendant to Xue Manyu and the one who earned the most trust from Xue Manyu. This ti she hadn’t gone out with Xue Manyu, so she got the news a bit late.
Still, she quickly beca aware that her young mistress had been punished to kneel in the Ancestral Shrine, and she cursed her young mistress in her heart multiple tis.
Can’t she just stay out of trouble for a bit?
Didn’t a Young Master Wei catch the young mistress’s eye? Why then is she seeking the company of soone else?
Mingling with an ordinary man would be one thing, but she’s actually setting her sights on the husband of High Priest Demon Heart, isn’t that like plucking whiskers from a tiger’s mouth?
She felt a headache coming on. In the past, she would be able to smooth over any trouble the Third Miss, Xue Manyu got into, or at least resolve it satisfactorily. But this ti, how could it be resolved?
“Sister Hua, it’s really bad this ti.”
The little maid, after being warned, could not care less, and ca to Sister Hua panting, one hand on her waist and the other pointing at soone in front, trying to say sothing.
“Catch your breath.”
Sister Hua frowned and glared at her.
It’s fortunate that the Third Miss has been punished to kneel in the Ancestral Shrine, otherwise, with this little wench acting like this, would she still have her life if the Third Miss saw her?
“Sister Hua, I just heard outside that the Sect Master is going to punish our young mistress by sending her to Reflection Cliff!” the little maid didn’t have ti to catch her breath and blurted it out.
“What?!”
Even the composed Sister Hua was shocked by this news.
Reflection Cliff is a dreadful place, the hottest in the Southern Lands, and the living conditions are extrely harsh, with food scarce.
And for anyone from Tufeng Sect who is punished by being sent to Reflection Cliff, no one will send them food.
In essence, once on Reflection Cliff, it’s a matter of life and death. Whenever the Sect Master rembers, that’s when they might be brought down. The number of people who died on Reflection Cliff is not small.
“How could that be, could you have heard wrong? Why would the Sect Master send the Third Miss to Reflection Cliff?”
After all, the Third Miss is the Sect Master’s own beloved daughter, how could she be sent to Reflection Cliff? That’s a place where people are devoured without a trace.
“It’s true, the Madam has already started selecting maids for the young mistress, to accompany the Third Miss to Reflection Cliff. I don’t know who will be chosen?”
Upon ntioning this, the little maid’s face paled; she hoped that she would not be the one chosen.
