Clang, clang, clang.
The patrolling watchmen beat the rhythmic bells and drums.
The voice traveled into the room. Meng Fanchen opened his dry eyelids and thought,""It's the fourth watch."
Last night, she had been lying in bed thinking for a long time and had made a lot of plans. She had only slept for a little more than two hours.
This body had yet to start cultivating, so its energy was not exuberant. Therefore, waves of fatigue and sleepiness still enveloped his body and mind.
However, his many years of experience had long forged Meng Fanchen's steel-like determination. This bit of sleepiness was nothing at all.
She immediately pushed away the thin silk blanket on her body and got up neatly. When he opened the window, the spring rain had already stopped.
The fresh and moist air mixed with the fragrance of green stones, trees, and flowers immediately assaulted his senses. Meng Fanchen felt his mind clear up as his drowsiness was dispelled. The sun had yet to rise, and the sky was deep blue.
As far as the eye could see, the houses were built with green trees, and they contrasted with the mountains. It was a quiet green color.
The house had at least two floors, and it was a unique structure of a mountain residence. Because the mountain was rugged, the first floor was a huge wooden stake, and the second floor was where people lived. Meng Fanchen and his brother lived on the second floor.
"Young master Chen, you're awake. I'll come upstairs now and help you wash up.”At this moment, a young girl's voice came from downstairs.
Meng Fanchen looked down and saw that it was his personal maid, Xiao Hong.
She had a good appearance and was dressed very well. She was wearing a redwood dress, long-sleeved trousers, embroidered shoes, and a pearl hairpin on her black hair. Her entire body emitted youthful vitality.
She looked at Meng Fanchen with joy and carried a basin of water upstairs.
The water was warm water that had been boiled to wash one's face. Gargle with cork dipped in salt, can clean teeth white teeth.
Xiao Hong served him gently with a smile on her face and a hint of spring in her eyes. After that, she buttoned Meng Fanchen's clothes, rubbing her voluptuous chest against Meng Fanchen's arms or back from time to time.
Meng Fanchen was expressionless, his heart as still as water.
Not only was this servant girl the spy of her uncle and aunt, but she was also vain and cold. In her previous life, her predecessor had been deceived by her. After she had enlightened her Apertures, her status had plummeted. She immediately rolled her eyes at him.
When Meng Cheng arrived, he saw Xiao Hong straightening the creases on Meng Fanchen's shirt. A hint of envy flashed in his eyes. All these years, he had lived with his younger brother and was taken care of by his younger brother. He also had a servant to serve him. However, it was not a pretty maid like Little Red, but a fat little girl with inferior appearance.
"If one day, Little Red can serve me like this, how would I feel?”Meng Chenggong wanted to, but he didn't dare to.
His uncle's family favored his younger brother. This was a well-known matter in the residence. Initially, he did not even have a maid to serve him. It was Meng Fanchen who took the initiative to ask for one for him.
Although there was a difference in status between master and servant, Meng Fanchen usually did not dare to underestimate Little Red. It was because Xiao Hong's mother, Nanny Li, who was beside her aunt, was also the housekeeper of the entire mansion. She was deeply trusted by her aunt and had a lot of power.
"Alright, there's no need to clean up." Meng Fanchen impatiently brushed away Little Red's soft hands. His clothes were already flat, and Little Red was more of a seduction. To her, she had a bright future ahead of her. There was a high possibility that she would have top-grade aptitude. If she could become Meng Fanchen's concubine, she would be able to go from being a slave to becoming a master. It could be said that she would be able to ascend to the heavens in a single step.
In his previous life, his predecessor had been deceived and even fell in love with this maidservant. But now, he was as clear as fire, his heart as cold as frost.
"You may leave." Meng Fanchen did not even look at Xiao Hong as he tidied up his sleeves.
Xiao Hong pouted slightly. She felt a little strange and wronged for Meng Fanchen's lack of understanding today. She wanted to say something coquettish, but she was intimidated by Meng Fanchen's indistinct aura. She opened her mouth a few times before finally saying " yes " and obediently retreated.
"Are you ready?" Meng Fanchen looked at Meng Chenggong.
The elder brother stood at the door in a daze. He lowered his head and looked at his toes. He softly hummed in agreement.
He had actually woken up in the middle of the night. He was so nervous that he couldn't fall asleep. He had secretly gotten up early to get ready. His eyes were dark.
Meng Fanchen nodded his head. He was very clear about his brother's thoughts, but it was meaningless to point it out now. He instructed calmly,""Then let's go."
Thus, the two brothers walked out of their residence. Along the way, they met many people of the same age. They were in twos and threes. Clearly, they had the same destination. "Look, those are the Meng brothers.”A careful discussion could be heard.
"The one walking ahead is Meng Fanchen, that genius.”Someone emphasized.
"So it's him. He's expressionless and acts as if there's no one else around. He's really as arrogant as the rumors say.”Someone said with jealousy and envy.
"Hmph, if you can be like him, you can also be so arrogant!”Someone snorted coldly and replied with a hidden dissatisfaction. Meng Chenggong listened expressionlessly. He was already used to such discussions. He lowered his head and followed behind his brother, walking silently.
At this moment, the sun had already lit up in the sky, and Meng Fanchen's shadow was cast on his face. The sun gradually rose, but Meng Chenggong suddenly felt that he was walking into darkness. This darkness came from his younger brother. Perhaps in this lifetime, he would never be able to break free from the huge shadow that his younger brother had cast over him. He felt a wave of pressure in his chest, and even his breathing was difficult. This damn feeling even made him think of the word "suffocation"! "Humph, such a discussion is indeed urged by the wind.”Meng Fanchen sneered in his heart as he listened to the discussions.
No wonder he was surrounded by enemies after his middle-grade aptitude was tested. For a long time, he was treated harshly, coldly, and coldly.
He heard his brother's increasingly heavy breathing behind him. What his predecessor did not notice in his previous life, he was able to see through it.
This was the keen insight brought about by many years of life experience. He suddenly remembered that his aunt's family really had some tricks up their sleeves. She had given herself Little Red to monitor her closely, and she had given her brother a chubby girl. In fact, there were other differences in the details of life.
This was all intentional. He wanted to stir up the injustice in his brother's heart and sow discord between him and his brother.
The world is not worried about scarcity, but about uneven distribution.
His predecessor had too little experience, and his brother was too stupid and naive. He was successfully instigated by his uncle's family.
Ever since he transmigrated, it seemed like he was about to be enlightened. The situation seemed to be too heavy to turn back, but with Meng Fanchen's methods and wisdom, it was not impossible to change it.
This big brother could be completely subdued. Little Red was just a little girl, so he could take her in early. The palace. There were also his uncle's family and the sect elders who had at least several ways to beat them.
" But, I don't want to do that…" Meng Fanchen sighed in his heart.
She had transmigrated and had no kinship to speak of. She was just an outsider. It was fine if she let go. So what if Little Red was beautiful? Without love and loyalty, she was just a pink skeleton. She was not worthy of being in the harem. His uncle's family and the sect's disciples were all passersby in their lives, so there was no need to care.
Haha. As long as you don't hinder me, then get lost. I won't even step on you!
