Chapter 1803 - 1405: The Maid Shocked by Extravagance!

Honestly, asking Yuan Bao, a eunuch, to make something only a palace maid would use, is really a bit of a challenge for him!

But, if he doesn’t do it, who else can we ask?

Here, he’s the only eunuch, so it’s not too awkward for him to make women’s private items. But if you ask someone else, it would be incredibly awkward. Not to mention whether they could make it or not, even if they could, their own wife wouldn’t use it, right?

So, Yuan Bao is quite frazzled!

And just when Yuan Bao was frazzled and had no idea what he was doing, Landuoer returned with Ling Dang!

Seeing Landuoer and Ling Dang coming over, this time Zhou Mu and Shi Wujue’s reactions were surprisingly consistent. Both of them had already avoided them by going behind another carriage!

"Alright, leave this to us. Go heat up the milk I brought!" Signaling Ling Dang to take over, Landuoer said to Yuan Bao with a frown as she watched his clumsy actions, "I brought some cane sugar to put in the milk. Didn’t her medical book say using cane sugar is better now?"

"No way, it’s brown sugar that’s best! But we didn’t bring any brown sugar!" Yuan Bao retorted critically as he took the items.

The medical book his lady wrote had long circulated in Northern Mongolian, Yuan Bao knew this well, but cane sugar, well, it’s better than nothing. He just saw his lady didn’t look too well.

"Ling Dang, you handle that thing, I’ll go check on her." With that, Landuoer turned and walked towards the particularly large carriage.

"Miss!" Ling Dang was anxious at this and hurriedly tried to stop her, "Miss, you make the things, and I’ll go in to serve! I’ll go serve her, can’t I?"

Although she was just sucked into that carriage for a short while before, it scared her a lot. Ling Dang clearly smelled the scent of blood. Although she dared not look closely, she could easily imagine the mess inside. How could she let her own miss go in?

"It’s okay, I’ll go. You quickly get those things ready and bring them over." Landuoer shook her head and stepped into the carriage.

Inside the carriage, Gu Changsheng had already heard the commotion outside. Seeing Landuoer enter, Gu Changsheng, lying on his side, greeted with a wry smile, "You came..."

Landuoer cast a glance at Gu Changsheng, then at the clothes under her and the faint smell of blood in the carriage, and couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow, "If I didn’t come, would you have turned this place into a battlefield?"

"Cough, cough..." At her words, Gu Changsheng’s face turned red with embarrassment, and she gave an awkward cough.

Then, Landuoer moved a bit closer and tugged at the clothes under Gu Changsheng, raising her eyebrows even more, "Is this his outer robe?"

That ’him’ was obviously no one else but Zhou Mu!

"Cough, cough..." Gu Changsheng coughed more vigorously.

Oh my god, Gu Changsheng thought, it might be better to be struck by lightning right now than to die of embarrassment!

But, there was no lightning, and she still had to be embarrassed!

"Haha..." Seeing Gu Changsheng so awkward, Landuoer’s smile grew wider, "Your carriage looks unremarkably modest from the outside, yet it’s quite extravagant inside. Where are your other clothes?"

"In the back cabinet." Gu Changsheng pointed to the back, speaking awkwardly.

At the first moment when everything happened, Gu Changsheng had ripped off the evildoer’s outer robe and placed it under herself, kicking the evildoer out of the carriage. This left her unable to fetch her change of clothes until now!

No way to get them!

On the first day of this good fortune, it was like a flood. Plus, the carriage was covered in long-haired carpets; she didn’t really want to turn it into a battlefield...

In fact, if Landuoer didn’t come, Gu Changsheng truly wouldn’t know what to do...

Probably, after changing her clothes all covered in blood and making a huge mess, she might just whack this carriage till it broke apart to destroy all evidence?

In theory, she really would do that!

Sweat...

Landuoer fetched Gu Changsheng’s change of clothes, making Gu Changsheng even more embarrassed...

Oh my god, how is she going to change?

Once she changes, won’t it be a mess everywhere?

"Alright, that clothing is going to be ruined; don’t cherish it and just change over there, I’ll go fetch you some water, wait here..." Landuoer couldn’t help but laugh at seeing Gu Changsheng in such a state.

Seeing the dignified Southern Emperor like this, Landuoer could claim to be the first!

This really is something to be delighted about...

"..." Gu Changsheng twitched her mouth, watching Landuoer walk out, and then, before she even started undressing, saw Landuoer return, handing a bundle of cotton cloth from outside the carriage, "Use this to wipe first, I’ll go get some water, Ling Dang will have the items ready soon!"

"Uh... okay!" Gu Changsheng took the bundle of cotton cloth that made her want to die of embarrassment, tears welling up in her eyes...

Can she say she misses modern life?

Can she say she misses sanitary pads?

Oh my god, why was she exiled to this godforsaken place? Exiled to a place where even menstruation is a luxury?

If given another chance, Gu Changsheng swore she would be a good person and definitely avoid exile!

Although, she actually was a good person in her past life, yet she was still exiled...

Before long, Landuoer brought the water in, and Gu Changsheng, huddled in the carriage, tidied up a bit, then Landuoer brought in the prepared menstrual belt, and Gu Changsheng let out a long sigh of relief!

Alright then...

This menstrual belt, although much worse than the ones Xiao Cui prepared for her, but since they are on the road, she couldn’t ask for too much! It would have to do!

While Gu Changsheng was changing clothes inside, outside Ling Dang was pulling her lady, already exclaiming in amazement!

"Miss! Miss, I didn’t see clearly when I came over earlier, only realized after making it myself, Miss do you know what fabric they used to make the menstrual belt? Huai River’s ridged cotton! Ridged cotton! Even Miss finds it extravagant to make large undergarments with ridged cotton, and they used it for menstrual belts! Not only that, when I said it could be washed and reused, that one was enough, guess what that servant said?" Ling Dang’s big eyes looked at her lady, her mouth babbling ceaselessly.

"What did he say?" Landuoer glanced at Yuan Bao by the bonfire,

"He said it was initially prepared for his wife to bathe with, they never reuse something meant for wiping the body, let alone for this kind of thing!" The more Ling Dang spoke, the more excited she got, "Miss, they just use it once and throw it away! It’s simply too extravagant! Absolutely too extravagant!"

"..." Landuoer was silent.

"And Miss, look there, that servant’s goblet for holding milk, isn’t that a swallow blood glazed cup? I didn’t see it wrong, did I?"

"And over there, Miss, look at that carriage curtain, that’s Mermaid Silk, right?"

"And that..."

Ling Dang kept babbling, her expression changing unpredictably, who knew that she was initially thinking of trading a pasture for those two men beside that woman!

But looking closely now, turns out just a few rolls of cotton fabric they use is worth as much as a fine pasture!

Not to mention that swallow blood glazed cup, that’s something money can’t buy, even in their tribe, there’s only one, used by the clan leader only during grand banquets!

Such precious things, they actually carried them while traveling, and not just carried them, but without any sign of being valued...

This deeply shocked Ling Dang!

"Now, are you still talking about using a pasture to buy those two men?" Landuoer shook her head, smiling, looking at the two carriages, her eyes unfathomable, "This is the wealth of the Central Plains, but because of these few people, it seems we Northern Mongolians can’t even touch a fraction in a lifetime!"

As long as the Southern Emperor is in the Central Plains for a day, their Northern Mongolian can’t step into the Central Plains at all!

For other tribes unaware of the Central Plains’ wealth it’s fine, but as mostly merchants from the Tashi Tribe, Landuoer has long yearned for the riches of the Central Plains!

But now it seems, her yearning can only remain a yearning, destined never to be fulfilled!

So, when Gu Changsheng tidied herself up, and also tidied up her dirty clothes and the blood-stained ones of her evildoer, she hastily called Yuan Bao in, instructing him to throw them as far as he could, never wanting to see those two sets of clothes again!

When Yuan Bao ran out of the carriage holding the clothes, Landuoer and her servant were by the bonfire brewing bone soup for Gu Changsheng.

"Miss, what’s that servant off to do?"

"Throwing clothes." Landuoer glanced, then withdrew her gaze, stirring the fire, speaking indifferently, "Priceless Heavenly silkworm Yunluo brocade from the Sichuan area, annual production is barely enough for one outfit, just discarded like that... oh..."

"Miss, what are you saying? What Sichuan area field Yunluo brocade? Couldn’t... couldn’t... those clothes... those clothes be made of Heavenly silkworm Yunluo brocade?" Those seemingly unremarkable clothes, made of Heavenly silkworm Yunluo brocade? Heavens! Ling Dang instantly felt terrible, "I’ll go secretly pick them up."

"You’re foolish! Since that servant went to discard it, it must be ruined! Picking it back is useless, it would just cause trouble! Truly... extravagant..." Landuoer heard this, shook her head with an amused sigh, looking at her maid, not knowing what to say.

Indeed, Landuoer, born into the Tashi Tribe Royal Family, wasn’t considered narrow-minded, even her maid Ling Dang was born into the Tashi Tribe nobility, but comparing with Southern Emperor Changsheng, they truly seemed so shabby!

When the bone soup was almost ready, a long time had passed, and the subordinates Landuoer sent out returned, bringing plenty of fresh vegetables. Vegetables, on the grassland, are more precious than beef or mutton, so with a wave of her hand, Landuoer let Ling Dang make them into food...
