Tang Yingying, however, was unyielding. She pulled Tang Cuicui back and admonished, “Stop putting on a show. This carriage is quite high. How can we possibly board it?”
“If you injure yourselves, how can you serve Young Master?”
Tang Yingying understood that they were dispatched by the governor, who was also effectively the governor’s man. Since Su Bin had accepted them, he undoubtedly would not dare to abandon them en route.
Their intent was to make Qin Zhenzhen realize that their positions were more significant than mere maids.
Qin Zhenzhen was left utterly speechless. These two women were undeniably thick-skinned.
In reality, the carriage was not particularly high. Even Su Ning, at her young age of nine, could effortlessly climb aboard. Was it plausible that the two of them would break their bodies trying to do the same?
Su Ning glanced at her elder brother. If he gave the signal, she would immediately close the carriage door!
The more she observed these two women, the more repulsed she felt. She was concerned that her distaste might cause complications for her Third Sister-in-law.
Finally, Su Bin interjected, “You genuinely won’t come up?”
The two women hastily nodded. “Young Master, we truly cannot ascend…’
Before they could complete their explanation, Su Bin hollered toward the carriage, “Brother Chen, come over for a moment.”
“Alright!”
Big Brother Chen had grown impatient from waiting.
He harbored an inexplicable displeasure toward these two refined beauties.
Upon Brother Chen’s arrival, Su Bin directed, “Kindly assist these two ladies into the carriage.”
“But, Young Master, this…”
No matter how obtuse Brother Chen might be, he discerned that these two lovely women were in reality, concubines the governor had bestowed upon the young master.
Being servants, Brother Chen knew better than to embrace their bodies.
The two beauties paled, too. “Young Master, how can we do that? We are your subordinates, Young Master. We cannot allow other men to touch us…’
Su Bin questioned Brother Chen with a grim countenance, “Why? Are you refusing to obey my orders? Or perhaps you lack the strength to lift them?”
Big Brother Chen’s face reddened. “I have the strength!”
Without further ado, he disregarded the protestations and followed Young Master’s directive. He hoisted Tang Yingying and gently deposited her into the carriage.
“Young Master, I don’t want him to carry me…” Tang Yingying protested. Nevertheless, Brother Chen had already placed her into the carriage, leaving her feeling somewhat embarrassed.
No one extended a hand to help her up. As Tang Yingying was about to rise, Tang Cuicui restrained her.
Brother Chen then shut the carriage door.
“Let’s proceed!”
“Understood!”
Big Brother Chen swiftly mounted the carriage, brandished the whip, and urged the horses forward. “Hya!”
The carriage recommenced its journey. By happenstance, the road was uneven, causing the carriage to sway involuntarily.
The two beauties inside the carriage had just managed to rise when they tumbled once more. They were in an exceedingly sorry state.
Upon standing yet again, their expressions did not appear too pleasant. They grasped that Su Bin was impervious to their stratagems.
Moreover, he was not inclined to have them as concubines.
They could only sit obediently on the stools.
If becoming concubines was not an option, they would assume the role of maids. Their other mission was to serve as spies for the Crown Prince.
They reached Meijiang Prefecture City under the cover of darkness.
The two beauties were directed to the servants’ quarters for their accommodation.
The following morning, they donned elaborate makeup and sought out Su Bin.
However, upon arriving at the entrance to Su Bin and Qin Zhenzhen’s residence, they were halted by an elderly woman.
“Young Master and Madam are still resting.”
Tang Yingying declared, “The two of us are Young Master’s personal maids. We intended to attend to Young Master upon his awakening.”
Following her statement, she attempted to force her way inside.
However, the elderly woman sneered, “Are you the maids bestowed upon
Young Master by the governor last night?”
Tang Yingying nodded proudly. “Indeed! Now, let us through!” The elderly woman sneered once more.. “Truly immodest women!”
