Chapter 151
“Miss Hye-un.”
“Yes, Ok-ryeon. Did you sleep well?”
The maid Ok-ryeon came to see Dang Hye-un, who had just woken up and was getting dressed.
“But what’s the matter so early in the morning? Did something happen during the night?”
“Yes, Miss.”
“…Huh?”
The response to her routine question was affirmative rather than negative.
As Dang Hye-un looked up, Ok-ryeon approached and whispered in her ear.
The longer she spoke, the more Dang Hye-un’s expression changed by the moment.
“What should we do?”
“…So she caused a scene at the Guest Hall yesterday?”
“Yes, she seemed to think it didn’t matter who heard her or not.”
How dare she insult a woman of the Dang Family while in the Dang Family’s territory and think nothing would come of it.
Should I call it naive, or should I call it arrogant.
Mo Yong-cheong-a’s face came to mind, the way she had always looked down on the main residence. That arrogant face contorting at Namgung San’s confession too.
So next it’s time for her to be shattered to pieces?
“Ok-ryeon.”
“Yes, Miss.”
“Can you do as I tell you?”
“Of course. Just give me any order.”
Ok-ryeon was a smart girl. Her eyes showed she had already steeled herself before coming to inform Dang Hye-un about the Guest Hall incident.
“Then listen. Go straight back to the Guest Hall right now and…”
Dang Hye-un giving instructions to Ok-ryeon looked very similar to when she had asked Dang Ho to have Yang Ha-rin bloom fire flowers.
“Kyaaaah!”
It was early morning as dawn was breaking. A sudden scream echoed through the Guest Hall.
The Guest Hall of the Dang Family, which had been empty for a long time due to the lockdown, was currently housing the junior disciples of the Cheongyeon Branch.
At the woman’s scream that seemed to shake the pavilion, everyone rushed out without hesitation.
“What’s happening?”
“Over there!”
The sound came from a place somewhat distant from where they were staying.
“Isn’t that where Miss Moyong and Miss Yang are staying?”
The Guest Hall didn’t originally separate men’s and women’s quarters, but out of consideration for the women Mo Yong-cheong-a and Yang Ha-rin, they had been assigned to the innermost part of the pavilion.
“I heard Miss Yang was hospitalized at the Detoxification Hall.”
Then only Mo Yong-cheong-a remained.
“Cheong-a!”
Mo Yong-hu ran calling out his sister’s name.
“Let’s hurry and go see too!”
Whatever big incident it might be, ignoring a woman’s scream after hearing it wouldn’t be befitting of men.
“Kyaah!”
The sound came from Mo Yong-cheong-a’s room as they had feared.
Mo Yong-hu burst through the half-open door.
“Cheong-a, what’s wrong!”
“A rat! It’s a rat!”
“…A rat?”
Absurdly, it was a Dang Family maid who had screamed.
The small-framed maid was pressed against the wall, trembling as she pointed to one corner.
Mo Yong-hu felt completely deflated.
He had rushed over without even dressing properly out of worry for his sister, only to find some deranged maid had caused this commotion over being startled by a rat.
“You’re saying a rat came out from inside the room?”
“Yes! Over there! It was so big… *sob sob*!”
The maid was truly terrified. Yeon U-seong, who arrived afterward, went to check the corner she was pointing at but couldn’t find even a rat’s tail.
“There’s nothing here?”
“Th-that can’t be! It was definitely a rat as big as a forearm!”
It was then that the maid, Ok-ryeon, was sobbing and protesting.
“Hey, why is Young Master Yang here…?”
“Gasp!”
“And next to him is Mi-Miss Moyong?”
Distracted by Ok-ryeon’s words, everyone discovered it with slight delays.
On one side of the room, on the wide bed, Yang Ja-seong and Mo Yong-cheong-a were sleeping under the same blanket.
They must have drunk quite a lot last night, as they showed no signs of waking even with the current commotion.
The problem was their bare skin exposed outside the blanket.
While their private parts were barely covered, it was obvious without needing to look that both were naked.
“Yang Ja-seoooong!”
Mo Yong-hu’s lion’s roar erupted.
He truly found this situation absurd.
He had asked him to comfort his sister a bit, not to spend the night with her.
No matter how close a friend he was, this was absolutely unforgivable behavior.
At Mo Yong-hu’s shout, Yang Ja-seong and Mo Yong-cheong-a stirred. Each time they moved, the blanket precariously covered their bodies.
After a while, Yang Ja-seong and Mo Yong-cheong-a slowly opened their eyes.
Yang Ja-seong, still half-asleep, made eye contact with Mo Yong-hu and just blinked, wondering what this situation was.
“Wh-what’s happening…”
On the other hand, Mo Yong-cheong-a froze the moment she saw Yang Ja-seong beside her. She was even more shocked to realize she was naked.
“Yang Ja-seong, how dare you lay hands on my sister?”
“…Brother?”
Holding her forehead due to her hangover, Mo Yong-cheong-a looked at Mo Yong-hu. She soon let out a scream.
“Kyaaaah!”
Indeed, behind Mo Yong-hu, the junior disciples were watching them in a daze.
Namgung San was there too.
He who had been her fiancé until yesterday was looking at her with indifferent eyes.
“What are you all doing! Get out right now!”
Mo Yong-hu also realized his mistake then. In his anger at Yang Ja-seong’s misconduct, his response had been delayed.
Thinking that the junior disciples had witnessed this scene, the future already looked bleak.
‘This is all because of that wench!’
After everyone left, Mo Yong-hu’s gaze turned to Ok-ryeon.
“Tell the truth! Did you really see a rat?”
“Of course! I came to clear the drinking table before the guests woke up and saw it!”
“If I search this room right now and no rat comes out, I’ll cut off your head!”
“Pl-please spare me! I was just startled by seeing the rat!”
Ok-ryeon trembled in fear and prostrated herself flat, begging Mo Yong-hu.
“What is this commotion about?”
That’s when Dang Hye-un and I appeared.
Having already been timing things from outside, we entered the Guest Hall before Mo Yong-hu could cause trouble.
‘Ugh, the smell of alcohol!’
How much did they drink all night?
The number of scattered liquor bottles looked to be over twenty.
Yang Ja-seong still seemed dazed as if the alcohol hadn’t worn off, and Mo Yong-cheong-a was hastily putting on clothes.
“Ok-ryeon, you may leave now.”
“Yes, Miss.”
“How dare you stand there! Lady Dang! This wench has told lies!”
“Lies, you say?”
“Does it make sense that a rat appeared in the Guest Hall?”
“While such a thing shouldn’t happen, if a rat did appear, I will formally apologize.”
“Is this something that can be resolved with just an apology?”
Mo Yong-hu’s voice grew increasingly louder.
“Due to this wench’s commotion, my sister’s shame has been exposed! How will you take responsibility for this?”
Dang Hye-un, who had been quietly observing Mo Yong-hu protesting with veins bulging in his neck, calmly spoke.
“By shame… do you mean Lady Moyong spending the night drinking with Young Master Yang until dawn?”
“…Kugh!”
Unable to answer affirmatively, Mo Yong-hu clenched his teeth tightly.
“But why should the Dang Family be responsible for that? It’s not as if I ordered her to do so.”
That’s right! Well done, our Aunt Dang!
Why are they causing a fuss at the wrong place when they’re the ones who got drunk and caused trouble?
Frankly speaking, weren’t those two already in that kind of relationship from the start?
At Aunt Dang’s pointed remark, Mo Yong-hu’s face instantly turned bright red.
“How can you say such a thing…!”
“Moreover, if you were concerned about shame, shouldn’t you have sought out a pleasure house instead of the Dang Family? The Guest Hall is a place where not only guests but many maids come and go. All for the guests’ convenience, of course.”
In other words, it was a warning that his sister had made the mistake voluntarily, so he should stop causing a scene.
“For now, since you say a rat appeared, we’ll change your room. Ok-ryeon!”
“Yes, Miss!”
“Move Lady Moyong’s room to the one at the eastern end, and call workers to inspect the room. Don’t forget to disinfect it as well.”
“I’ll do so immediately!”
Ok-ryeon sprang up and shot out of the room like an arrow.
A proud smile briefly appeared and disappeared on her lips, showing she had successfully completed her mission.
“Lady Moyong, this way please.”
Dang Hye-un personally took charge of guiding Mo Yong-cheong-a.
Mo Yong-cheong-a seemed almost out of her mind, shocked by what she had done.
“Yang Ja-seoooong!”
As soon as the door closed, Mo Yong-hu’s anguished cry burst forth.
I was rather looking forward to seeing how badly Yang Ja-seong would get beaten up by Mo Yong-hu.
“Lady Tak.”
As I was inwardly chuckling and about to leave the Guest Hall, Namgung San appeared from somewhere.
“Could you spare a moment to talk with me?”
“Yes, of course.”
There was still an unresolved matter between Namgung San and me.
“Shall we move to a different location?”
This place seems a bit too open.
At my words, Namgung San nodded, and I led him toward the rear garden of the manor.
At some point, I could sense Eok I-geon’s presence following behind us.
