Chapter 908: Overkill?
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
It was really a nosebleed!! Yin Huaixi suffocated.
One shouldn’t ask. If anyone asked, he was overthinking.
Yes, to put it simply, it was an emergency.
“Why are you still standing there? Sit down quickly.” He was standing there in a daze and not moving at all. Two lines of blood flowed from his nose and onto his lips. Seeing this, Yu Youyao stomped her feet and quickly went forward to help him sit down.
Only then did Yin Huaixi realize what he was experiencing. He was so embarrassed that he suddenly had the urge to escape.
It was obvious that Yu Youyao would not give him this chance.
“Raise your head first.” She held Yin Huaixi’s head up and wiped the blood off his nose with a handkerchief. Then, she pinched the flesh of his nose and continued to press his nose.
Chun Xiao, who was outside the screen, heard the commotion and quickly brought in a basin of cold water.
Ever since Yu Youyao turned twelve, she rarely stayed alone with Yin Huaixi. When they were in the same room, she would always arrange for one or two maidservants to wait outside the screen.
After leaving the capital and returning to her mother’s clan, this rule became even stricter.
The Xie Residence did not restrict her from interacting and getting close to Yin Huaixi, and the higher-ups were not too strict with her. However, it was definitely impossible for a man and woman to be alone in the same room.
Eldest Aunt Wang even called her into her room from time to time to talk about private matters. She found the “fire prevention painting”O at the bottom of the carriage and pointed at the erotic painting on it. She explained to Yu Youyao about some things that men and women who had fallen in love would do and warned her that unmarried men and women could not do anything that was depicted in the painting. She even mentioned the consequences of disobedience to her.
Yu Youyao was so embarrassed that her face turned red, and she did not know where to look.
However, Madam Wang smiled and said, “l originally wanted to wait for your biological mother to close the door after your wedding date before slowly teaching you. It’s just that…” She paused and skipped the rest of her sentence. “You’ve grown up in front of your Grandmother since you were young. There are some private conversations between mother and daughter that no one can tell you about, so you’re very ignorant.”
Old Madam Yu had been chaste for half her life and had suffered from the effects of etiquette. She was indifferent to everything, and some of her teachings were not that important.
She really doted on her granddaughter, so she wouldn’t criticize Yu Youyao over such trivial matters.
In addition, she was a chaste woman. As long as Yu Youyao did not make any mistakes during the grand ceremony and stood tall, no one would pick on her. Moreover, she was a widow and had lived for a long time, It wasn’t appropriate for her to call her granddaughter into her room and talk to her about the private matters between men and women!
It was clearly inappropriate.
This kind of thing could only be taught by her aunt, Madam Wang.
Yu Youyao was embarrassed and her heart was beating fast. She did not dare to look at the explicit scene on the fire preventing painting at all. “Doesn’t—
Doesn’t this mean that we have to wait until the night before the wedding to…”
When Madam Wang heard this, she stretched out a finger and poked her forehead lightly. “Little fool, husband and wife are a family. Not only are they doing this to continue the family line, but they’re also doing it for the sake of harmony. There’s no doubt that they’re loving. A good start is the key to getting along as husband and wife, right? How can they cram at the last
minute?!”
Yu Youyao was stunned when she heard this.
“After a woman is engaged, her mother will teach her how to have some fun between husband and wife and promote their relationship.” At this point, Wang blushed a little. She coughed lightly and showed her a painting on the fire prevention painting.
To put it bluntly, they were just some flirting and teasing methods.
Yu Youyao was nervous and curious. She opened one eye to take a look, but she realized that in the scene on the fire prevention painting, the women were more or less all wearing clothes. Some had small exposed shoulders, some had their clothes half-open, and some were wearing tube tops. It was the same for the men. The scene was charming, but not messy.
It simply shattered Yu Youyao’s demeanor she had nurtured since elementary school. “Isn’t— Isn’t this only used by concubines…” Indecent methods? She vaguely said, “The ‘Lessons for Women’ states that women should be polite and dignified…”
She had been learning a woman’s teachings since she was seven years old. Compared to her other sisters in the family, she did not learn them wholeheartedly. Her grandmother and Ms. Ye did not criticize her.
However, some concepts were still affected.
All the women in this world were like this. They wouldn’t go with the flow, but they wouldn’t let herself go. They were cautious, restrained, and learned everything. This was a principle she had understood since she was young.
This was because if one casually followed the flow, they would eventually become one of them.
However, if they were left to their own devices, they would eventually deviate from the norm and become intolerable by the world.
When Madam Wang heard this, her tone suddenly became stern. “Marriage is your own. It’s like drinking water. You’ll know whether it’s cold or warm. If you abide by the etiquette of being respectful and dignified, not only will you live a tiring life, but your husband won’t like it either. How can such a couple be harmonious? Couples quarrel all day long. This is a sign of chaos in the family. How can your mother-in-law tolerate you? How can she not torture you? Can you still stand tall in your husband’s family? At that time, won’t you be mocked, bullied, and welcomed into the house by the concubine? Your husband will only see the new person laugh, and won’t see you cry. Is this the marriage you want?”
Yu Youyao subconsciously shook her head.
Fortunately, the methods of the aristocratic families were not too vicious. If she put in a little more effort, she could still change it. Madam Wang smiled. “Don’t be too stupid. Don’t just look at the big families shouting about rules and etiquette. However, the families who really dote on their daughters have long taught them how to control men.”
Not only did she want to control a man’s heart, but she also wanted to be able to stand tall at home in the future.
Yu Youyao finally understood the difference between having a mother and not having one.
Seeing that she understood, Madam Wang lowered her voice and whispered into Yu Youyao’s ear, “However, you won’t know about the real relationship between husband and wife until after the engagement.”
“Eldest Aunt!” Yu Youyao’s face turned red with anger.
Madam Wang covered her mouth and giggled. “Alright, I won’t tease you anymore. When girls are 13 or 14 years old, they’re at the age when love is first born. If your family doesn’t guide you well, it’s very easy for something to happen. Many big families have foresight. When their daughter is 13 or 14 years old, their sisters will start to use obscure methods to teach them about the matters between men and women. When they find out about this and understand the consequences, they’ll weigh the consequences in their hearts.
It’s better than not knowing anything and being coaxed and lied to.”
Some innocent young misses who had been raised in seclusion were blinded by the love of the scholars and beauties after reading a few books. They did not know anything about men and women. When men said a few sweet words, they untied their belts.
Such things were common.
Yu Youyao was not someone who did not know the severity of the matter.
Yin Huaixi did not look like such a despicable person.
However, the two of them were too close. They were also in their prime and had feelings for others. One was ignorant and the other was fearless, so it was inevitable that people would worry.
