Peasant Woman is in Her Prime - C194
Because of the unique humidity and the ceaselessly undulating terrain of the mountain slopes, the Shuzhou gave birth to a woman with delicate and moist skin, sparkling like jade, slim and well-proportioned figure, swaying and swaying as she walked.
Almost everyone knew that Shuzhou produced beauties.
It was rumored that as long as one was within the Yao Xi, one would feel as if they were in a fairyland amidst the clouds. The surroundings looked like they were all made up of fairies, and even elderly women, because their skin was white and moist, would look much younger than their actual age.
The young girl had the freshness and innocence of a young girl, and the woman had lost her youth and more of her amorous feelings.
Therefore, there was also the saying that he could not get into Shu’s house. Once this young man entered the Shuzhou, he would probably fall into the lust for beauty, wasting away his entire life.
Feng Luanying was born at the Yao Xi, and before she was born, the Feng Family already had two boys, the eldest, Feng Shan Jiang, and the second, Feng Luanjun.
Brother, second brother naturally held her in his hands and protected her and pitied her, afraid that she would suffer even the slightest bit of grievance. If there was anything good to eat, keep it close to her.
When Feng Luanying was young, she grew up in a jar of honey.
When Feng Luanying was twelve to thirteen years old, it was already obvious that she was a perfect beauty. When she smiled, it was like a spring breeze blowing across everyone’s face, causing them to be overjoyed.
In the eyes of the Feng Family members, in the eyes of the entire Yao Xi, they had seen her beauty. When the orders came down from the Emperor, Zhi Zun took the initiative to hand over Yao Xi and Feng Luanying’s name list.
The Feng Family members were not willing to have Luanying cross the rivers and mountains to head towards the distant capital, but Feng Luanying was very excited about this. Under the orange tree in the Feng Family’s small courtyard, Feng Luanying held, the second brother who came forward to persuade her, as her eyes glistened, “Second brother, I want to go to the capital, and I want to go to the Imperial Palace. That place is the most prominent and honorable place in the entire Great Zhou, so if I want to go there, even if I want to go to the stars, I will have to go there!”
Until now, Feng Luanjun still could not forget the look in his Third Sister’s eyes.
However, he still muttered to himself, “Even if you really want the stars, my brothers will still pick them for you.”
Feng Luanying heard this and heaved a long sigh, hugging Feng Luanjun’s arm: “Second Brother, you guys have this intention, but don’t have this power. How can the stars in the sky just be there for you?
It was the time for the orange flowers to bloom. As Feng Luanying finished her words, a gentle breeze blew past, and the pure white orange flowers rained down along with the fragrance.
Feng Luanjun pursed his lips, clenching his fists tightly, he did not say a word.
In less than a few days, Feng Luanying was brought away by an elder who came to reap the harvest. The eunuch was very satisfied after seeing Feng Luanying and gave the Feng Family a huge sum of money.
And the Feng Family had never seen their little daughter, whom they had doted on for more than ten years, ever again.
Some courtesan had been chosen to live in the Chéveau in the palace; some nobleman had been recognized and promoted to the position of mistress of the palace; the last letter was about a chance meeting to serve in the palace’s most favoured imperial concubine.
After that, the Feng Family did not receive any more letters from Luanying.
Until fifteen years ago, when the Feng Family’s two elders passed away one after the other. Feng Shan Jiang had already had his own children, and Feng Luanjun had just gotten married.
Just when Feng Luanjun’s new wife was about to be pregnant, Feng Luanjun called his older brother and sister-in-law, who were next door, over to have a meal together with a pair of nephew girls. The alcohol had just been drunk to the point of being good, when they heard some sound coming from the yard, causing the domesticated yellow dogs to bark non-stop.
The Feng family’s new wife smiled at the man who was drinking on the table and only said, “Maybe the weasel came to steal the chicken. I’ll go take a look. You guys drink slowly.”
Feng Luanjun did not mind, it was a normal thing for weasels to steal chickens, it was originally something he would do to rush to it, but now that he was with his big brother and wife, he looked at his wife and saw that she was not displeased, so he nodded and let her go.
The two kids were both seven or eight years old and loved to play. Upon hearing that there was a weasel coming, they also wanted to follow along and take a look. With a few words of advice from the aunt, she continued to help the man carry the dishes.
The three of them made a racket as they walked into the yard. After a long while, Huang Gou stopped barking, but he still hadn’t returned.
It was March, and although the peach blossoms had bloomed, the weather was still chilly. The eldest sister-in-law was afraid that the two children would get a cold breeze, so she also got up and walked towards the courtyard.
Who knew that just as she opened the door, she let out a soft cry?
The sound of swords and sabers resounded in the room. The sword stabbed straight into her stomach and then it was drawn out. A real and living person died in front of the two people in the room.
The two men were shocked. They immediately dropped their chopsticks and went out to take a look.
Seeing that, her heart was torn, her children were covered in blood, and had long since stopped breathing, while Feng Luanjun’s wife died, her neck was cut off by the blade.
Such a cruel scene made the two men unable to think other than out of grief.
The group of masked men in black in the yard didn’t care about that. One of them pointed at the four people on the ground, then pointed at the two men standing at the entrance, then nodded to the people beside him.
The Feng Family was gathered.
The petite person beside him nodded his head, and the group of black-clothed men immediately rushed forward with their sabers raised.
Feng Yanjiang was the first to react. He abruptly turned around and pushed his younger brother into the room. With a quick pull, he closed the door tightly behind him.
A few blades pierced into Feng Shanjiang’s back at the same time. Separated by the door, Feng Luanjun could clearly hear the sound of his elder brother’s flesh slicing apart as he finally shouted out from between his lips, “Let’s go!”
Feng Luanjun could no longer care about his grief. With scarlet eyes, he clenched his teeth and rushed towards the backyard. The backyard stretched all the way into the mountain forest, and Feng Luanjun ran around aimlessly in the woods. The sounds behind him got closer and closer, and coincidentally, a wild boar just scurried past.
Feng Luanjun came to a sudden realisation and quickly grabbed the wild boar. After tying up his clothes, he patted the wild boar’s butt and ordered the wild boar to run forward. He grabbed the tall cloud pine beside him and climbed up.
He climbed all the way up to the highest branch of the tree and sat down, then hid himself in the shadows.
Soon, he saw a group of men in black chasing after him. They only passed under the tree and chased after the wild boar.
Feng Luanjun didn’t even have the time to relax as he sat on the tree and thought wildly about why their clan had suddenly been annihilated. The two black-clothed men returned to their original path and returned to the tree trunk.
Feng Luanjun was shocked. He did not dare to take a deep breath as he was afraid that he would be exposed.
Unexpectedly, the man spoke up.
“Aunt, don’t worry. That man won’t be able to escape.” The black-clothed man walked towards the person beside him.
“Yes.” Only after that petite person beside him spoke did Feng Luanjun realize that it was actually a woman.
“Regarding this, Luanying must definitely get rid of everyone, leave none alive.” The woman’s cold voice was emotionless, “What Luanying is doing is definitely not to be revealed, if we were to reveal even a little more, it will definitely turn into a nightmare of blood and gore.”
“Yes sir!”
Feng Luanjun sat on the Cloud Pine for three days and three nights, only falling down after he was so hungry that his hands and feet became weak and he couldn’t even hold onto the tree trunk.
He fell face-first onto the ground. One of his eyes smashed into a sharp stone, causing blood to flow out. Without caring about the pain, he rushed straight towards the Feng family.
The corpses had long since disappeared. The two old houses next to the Feng Family were also on fire. The flames soared into the sky, and the surrounding villagers were all scrambling to extinguish the flames.
Just as Feng Luanjun wanted to go out from the forest, he saw a few unfamiliar people, dressed as villagers, also walking at the side.
Muttering in his mind, Feng Luanjun retracted his leg. It seemed that the group of people had not left yet. They were actually waiting for him in the village.
In the first few days, Feng Luanjun wandered around the village to check on the movements of those few people, but after seeing that they seemed to have started living here, he had no choice but to go into the mountain forest to live his life of robbing and stealing.
He had no idea that the longer he lived, the more people he liked. In the end, they had already formed a small village.
Feng Luanjun was like a mountain king.
But Luanying’s matter, was like a mass of dark clouds shrouding around his head from beginning to end. Whenever she had the chance, he would scout everywhere for information regarding Luanying.
He wanted to know what kind of unspeakable things Third Sister had done that year to invite such a disaster.
Finally, Huang Tian didn’t disappoint those who followed his wishes. After a robbery, Feng Luanjun checked the materials and found a small quilt made of mandarin ducks and water.
He was extremely familiar with this quilt. It was personally embroidered by his mother when Third Sister was about to enter the palace.
