Jin Wang Dotes on His Concubine
Translated by little monster

Fucheng did in fact come to see the little princess. He asked about how much the little princess ate and how well her sleep was. Yaoniang was relieved.
Fucheng asked Yucui to pour him a cup of tea. After Yucui went out, he looked at Yaoniang with a smile and said, âNanny Su, His Highness asked me to give you something.â
He took out a small porcelain pot from his sleeve.
âItâs the best medicine for treating traumas. You can apply it on the lips, itâs okay if you accidentally eat it.â
Yaoniang flushed with shame and was too embarrassed to lift her head. She took it and said, âThank you, Eunuch Fu.â
The more Fucheng looked at her, the more pleasing she became to his eyes. Fuchen replied while smiling, âDonât mention it. Then, Iâll leave first.â
Fucheng went outside and happened to meet Yucui holding a tray of tea.
âEunuch Fu, your tea.â
âNo need. I still have something to do.â
Yucui came in with the tea and said to Yaoniang, âHow strange is Eunuch Fu, why did he leave without drinking the tea?â
Yaoniangâs eyes flickered, she restlessly touched the small porcelain pot in her sleeve and did not reply.
Yaoniang went back to her room in the middle of work and took out the small porcelain pot from her sleeve.
The small porcelain pot was pinkish-white in colour, and the glazed surface had a very fine opening. The texture was like jade and very exquisite. Yaoniang opened it and saw a turquoise translucent paste. She dipped some with her fingertips and rubbed them on the back of her hands. It was cool and comfortable.
She unbuttoned her clothes and bit her lower lip, then smeared the medicine on her two peaks while embarrassment burned her cheeks. The hot and slightly tingling sensation then disappeared soon. Seemed like Jin Wang was too passionate yesterday, seeing that he sucked them a great deal.
After smearing some on her body, she untied her skirt. Looking at the reddened skin on both thighs, she blushed heavily and applied some on it as well. After that, she hurriedly put on her clothes and finally smeared the medicine on her lips.
She hoped he wouldnât come again tonight, or else she wouldnât last for another day.
***
The Yao Family, situated in Huaishu alley, Linyun County, was densely covered by clouds of sorrow at this moment.
In the west chamber, Mrs. Liâs scolding could be heard every once in a while.
It sounded a little faint from the outside since Mrs. Li suppressed her voice, but Huiniang didnât even need to listen attentively to know what her mother-in-law was fussing about.
The unmarried Yanâer, to oneâs surprise, was pregnant. When she thought of it, Huiniang felt an inexplicable pleasure.
It wasnât that she wanted to gloat over it, but whenever she thought of her young sister who had gone to Jincheng, she couldnât help being consumed with hatred. She despised Mrs. Li and Yanâer like sin. Moreover, since Yaoniang left, Yanâer had been egging on Mrs. Li to ask Yao Cheng to propose marriage to Chen Anâs family. Huiniang finally understood why Mrs. Li wanted to drive her sister away.
In the end, they became the victim of their own evil deeds.
Chen Anâs family didnât agree to the proposal. Yanâer lost her innocence to Feng Heizi, and the Feng Family did come to propose marriage, but Mrs. Li objected. She hated Feng Heiziâs poor family status and widowed mother, while Yanâer was also unwilling to marry him. Both mother and daughter made a lot of noise.
Huiniang usually acted as an indifferent spectator, but couldnât help criticizing them in her heart. You could look down your nose at Feng Family, but was your daughter qualified to do that? If you have the ability, just make the domineering Yanâer live at home and donât marry for a lifetime.
Thinking of this, Huiniang stood up and made her way to the west chamber.
When Huiniang came, Mrs. Li immediately stopped her scolding. She was aware of the unfavourable situation, however, she had always been putting the air of mother-in-law in front of her daughter-in-law. She didnât want to be looked down on by Huiniang.
Huiniang looked at Yanâer, who was sitting on the chair, with a smile in her eyes. That girl could only lower her head, being reproached by Mrs. Li.
âYanâer, you shouldnât stay stubborn in such a situation. You are currently carrying someone elseâs child, yet you still want to marry Chenan?â That depends on Chen An whether he wants to marry you or not, but Huiniang didnât speak out. Earlier on, she deemed Chenan as a good match for her younger sister, but unfortunately, this vicious girl, Yanâer, destroyed their marriage.
Huiniangâs words were just like a knife inserted in Yanâerâs heart. She instantly covered her face and started bawling.
Mrs. Li. had always been siding with Yanâer even if she was in the wrong. How could she bear watching Huiniang run her mouth at her daughter like this? She then lashed out, âSu Huiniang, I tell you, donât you bully Yanâer⦠â
Huiniang interrupted her, âMother, you think too much. No one gives me money, why should I bully her?â
This âNo one gives me moneyâ was what Mrs. Li used to say. Huiniang merely gave her a taste of her own medicine, which was quite ironic.
Before Mrs. Li raised her voice once again, Huiniang cut her off, âMother, you always say that Yaoniang has no sense of honour, having an illicit relationship with some unknown man, saying itâs ruining Yao Familyâs moral standards and traditions. Not to mention that she has a child out of wedlock, which was very unpleasant to hear. Therefore, shouldnât you also stop being so persistent about not letting Yanâer marry into the Feng Family? Donât forget that although Chen An is only a minor official, he has a good reputation in the county. Also, Mingâer is no longer young and will go to a private school after two years. Your two grandsons are the honours of the Yao Family. Supposedly the outsiders find out that they have such an auntâ¦â
Huiniang didnât finish her words, but Mrs. Li and Yanâer understood her meaning.
Even though Mrs. Li always made trouble out of nothing, she genuinely cherished Mingâer and Hongâer. On one side were her two grandsons, while on the other side was her good-for-nothing daughter. Didnât she understand which side to choose?
Even if Mrs. Li couldnât make a decision right now, she would figure it out eventually.
Yanâer undoubtedly realized the truth and soon cried out loud, âMother, I wonât marry! Since you donât want me to marry, then I wonât⦠â
Mrs. Li wasnât in a clear mind and inadvertently rebuked her, âMother was joking with you, saying not wanting you to marry. Mother only said that to make things difficult for the Feng Family. Donât take it seriously. If you donât marry, where do you want to go then? You silly girlâ¦â
Huiniang had already walked out of the west chamber at this point. Listening to the scolding behind her, the corners of her mouth spontaneously turned up.
Yaoyao, this sister could only help you like this. How are you now? Why donât you send a message home?
Huiniang decided to wait for her husband before going to the Wang family to ask for any news about her younger sister. Her younger sister had been away for nearly two months and hasnât sent anyone to deliver a message. She had no idea about Yaoniangâs current conditions.
All of a sudden, there was a knock at the door of the yard.
âIs anyone there?â
âWho is it?â Huiniang answered.
Silence soon ensued from the west chamber. Mrs. Li quickly raised the curtain and came out.
âSomeone asked me to deliver something to your family, her surname is Suâ¦â
