Transmigration: A Farm Girl’s Brocade

So many people, even after passing by, would turn back for a look, and upon seeing the monkey with a face full of fur, they were incredibly curious. But noticing that the group belonged to an official entourage, they dared not to be too presumptuous.

Qian Yixiu felt embarrassed to have people gawk at the monkey along the way, so she had Zi Zhu lead it a few steps behind.

The group entered a shop and bought some small ornaments and a roast duck, and they were preparing to board their carriage when a wealthy young master blocked their path. He pointed with his fan at Monkey Sister and said, "This monkey is truly a rare creature. I like it and want to buy it; name your price."

This young master was dressed extremely lavishly, wearing a red jacquard satin robe with arrow sleeves, a gold forehead band with two dragons playing with a pearl at his brow, and a purple gold crown set with phoenix wings and inlaid with jade upon his neatly arranged hair—his fair face suggested he was around sixteen or seventeen years old.

The law and order in Daqian was excellent, especially in Capital City, where petty theft and harassment of common women were quite infrequent. This young master’s boldness in trying to make a forceful purchase suggested he was no ordinary person.

Qian Yixiu approached and said, "Young master, we are not selling, not for any price."

Having said that, she took Monkey Sister and moved to leave. She saw that Monkey Sister’s eyes were already wide open, and at any moment it might charge at the young master and scratch his face. Qian Yixiu didn’t dare to let it cause trouble and held its hand tightly.

The reckless young master again used his fan to block Qian Yixiu’s way and said with a stern face, "Miss, I advise you to be sensible. Otherwise, I might just take you along to my mansion."

Upon hearing this, several boy servants from the Qian Mansion rushed up, and the young master’s dozen or so attendants also surged forward.

Blue Bead quickly said, "Young master, we belong to Lord Xiangen Mansion. This monkey is very dear to our master, and we really cannot bear to sell it."

The young master laughed upon hearing this and said, "Oh, it’s that bumpkin from Lord Xiangen’s household. You dare to mention that name in front of me! You really are asking to drink a penalty instead of a toast." He pointed at his followers and commanded, "Bring that monkey over here."

As his words fell, several servants went to attack the boy servants from Lord Xiangen Mansion, and two servants went to snatch the monkey. Suddenly, Monkey Sister leaped up, landed on those two individuals, scratched them a few times, and the two men fell to the ground clutching their faces and screaming. Their faces streamed with blood, and Monkey Sister’s fingernails were covered with flesh and blood—there was even half a nose on them.
