SOUTH CONTINENT
WU DYNASTY
PEACE VILLAGE
FAR DOWN THE NIGHT SKY,
A woman is seen dropping a basket on the gate step of Lin's Mansion, then leaves hurriedly.
On a bright and peaceful morning.
A servant opened the gate and was surprised to see a small basket on the step. He bent down to check the basket and was shocked to see a soundly sleeping newborn baby. He ran to call his master, the patriarch of the Lin family, Lin Xu Lang.
In a jiffy, Lin Xu Lang arrived at the gate. He checked the basket and was surprised to see a sleeping baby. Looking at the newborn baby, his heart melted softly. He carried the baby and cuddled it affectionately. He saw a letter inside the basket when he lifted the baby. He took it and read it.
He frowned and squeezed the letter after reading it. He gestured for his bodyguard to come forward by waving his hand and whispered into his ears. "Find Xiao Xuli and a nun mother for the baby. Also, call Physician Lin and buy the baby's stuff."
"Yes, master." The bodyguard bowed and left hurriedly.
Then, he carried the baby to his mansion and went to his room.
15 years later...
"Mistress.."
"Mistress.."
"Mistress.."
"What should we do? Today is her Marriageable Age ceremony."
In this dynasty, Females are meant to do A Marriageable age Ceremony on their fifteen years birthday. It is believed at the age of 15 and above, females can meet their future husbands. A sign will be shown on their forehead when they meet their future partner. It is for both males and females.
"Great Master will kill us."
"We can't go back until we find her."
"Buddha, please protect our young miss."
Four Maiden servants continued searching for their Mistress in the big market worriedly.
Meanwhile, the Mistress is seen dressed like a young man at...
Luo Gambling House ...
She is playing a game called Liuno. This is a Chinese board game played by two players. It is believed that each player had a square game board that had a distinctive, summer Ethical pattern. Moves were determined by the throw of six sticks, which performed the same function as dice in other race games.
The first player to six points would win the race. The mistress won the game many times. They have played seven rounds.
"Uncle, you've lost seven times." The mistress laughed sarcastically at the bald man, sitting at her front.
"Youuu" The man hit the table angrily.
"Take heart, it is okay to lose to a young man." She consoled him mockingly.
"You..." The bald man pointed at her angrily. He was speechless.
"Bald uncle, don't be angry. You are looking so ugly." She laughed sarcastically, mocking him.
The Bald man raised his hand to hit her but was stopped by the shopkeeper.
"Mr. Heng, calm down. Don't forget the rules of this house." The shopkeeper threatened with a smile.
The bald Mr. Heng's angry face instantly turned into a smile, saying Shopkeepper Xa, "Don't get me wrong. I just wanted to greet him."
Shopkeeper Xa didn't bother to reply to him. He faced the young master smiling "Young master, this is the money you won. You can count it." He said, giving her the money in the small pouch bag.
The mistress collected it happily. Weighing the pouch bag, she said "I trust you. Shopkeeper Xa." She cupped her fists "Shopkeeper Xa, I will take your leave."
"We would like to see you next time, Mister." Shopkeeper Xa cupped his fists and bowed.
"I'm Xu." She told him his name. "Goodbye, bald Uncle." She waved her hands, smiling. Though that's not Mistress's real name, She had to lie for safety reasons. Her Real name is Lin Xue, the third miss of Lin's Family.
"You.." The bald man pointed at her receding figure.
Still in Luo Gambling House
"Young master, I have delivered the money." The shopkeeper Xa said to his young Master. "His name is Xu."
"She is interesting." Luo Si Cheng, the third young master of Luo's Family smirked, staring at the receding figure of The Mistress.
The shopkeeper showed a surprised expression when he thought of the possibility of Young Master Xu being a girl.
...
Lin Xue is seen strolling in the forest. Her hands were dancing with the wind, with a wide smile that could melt a soul.
Instantly, she stopped and hid at the back of a tree covered with leaves. She peeped at the fights going on before her like a film. "Waaaaaw!!." She was mesmerized.
Unknowingly, An arrow was shot at where she hid. She was shocked to see she had been uncovered. Staring at the shooting arrow, a beautiful smile appeared on her face showing her white bunny teeth.
