Chapter 12: Such a Bully

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

“Yu Niang, why is Master Miao Jun such a bully? She keeps making us work.” Yu Shuya put on a sad face when she asked Yu Niang. But she did not stop the chores in her hand.

Yu Niang heaved a sigh and shook her head at her upset young mistress.

“Stop asking, young mistress. We have to prepare the lunch once we complete doing the laundry.”

Yu Shuya paused for a moment at Yu Niang’s word before she continued her hand’s motion of scrubbing the linen under her hand.

Was Yu Niang responsible for all the chores in the nunnery? Would there be an end to these chores?

Yu Shuya imagined throwing punches at Master Miao Jun and beat her up badly to get back at the evil nun. She felt much better after that.

“Yu Niang, please tell me. Is there anything we did wrong that Master Miao Jun treats us like this?”

Yu Niang lowered her eyes, blaming herself for her young mistress’s unhappiness. She could only try to explain to the child.

“Young mistress, sometimes, some people are just plain evil. They do not need reasons to act the way they do.”

Yu Niang never wanted to expose Yu Shuya to all these bad things that happened in the nunnery. But considering that Yu Shuya was slowly growing up and she would not be able to keep her in the small courtyard, she had no choice but to explain everything that happened in the nunnery.

“Young mistress, I want you to remember everything that I’m going to tell you next.”

Yu Shuya quickly nodded her head. Her ears pricked up attentively, knowing that Yu Niang was going to tell her something important.

They were in a nunnery known as Green Jade Temple, located in a city known as Green City. Green City was prosperous since it was populated by the affluent. The temple was of moderate size and housed forty nuns.

Although the number of inhabitants in the nunnery was not high, they could still form small groups and fought against each other.

Other than meditating and managing the visitors to the temple, they mocked and made fun of each other. The weaker nuns in the temple would have to complete the chores meant for the evil ones.

Information Yu Niang fed Yu Shuya dumbfounded her. Where there were women, there were wars, especially when it was a place full of women.

For Yu Shuya, these women were too free. When they had too much time in their hands, they spent it competing against each other.

“Young mistress, most of the nuns in this nunnery were bad people. It will be a hard life for us if you offend them.”

Yu Shuya nodded her head hard at Yu Niang’s words.

Although she had met only Master Miao Jun, she could already imagine how the rest of them would be.

“Yu Niang, how much do you know about Master Yuyan?”

Yu Shuya continued asking more questions when she noticed that Yu Niang seemed shaken by her question.

“Yu Niang, I really like Master Yuyan. Are we going to see her again when we prepare lunch? Yu Niang, will we? Will we?”

Looking at the curiosity on her young mistress’s face, Yu Niang forgot the doubt she had in her mind earlier.

“Master Yuyan only prepares breakfast. She’s usually busy with her prayer studies and taking care of the visitors. You will only see her again tomorrow morning.”

Disappointed that she would not see Master Yuyan again today, Yu Shuya could only nod.

Master Yuyan seemed to be just like any other nun here if she wasn’t the target of bullying in this temple. But she was still curious about Master Yuyan.

Yu Shuya wasn’t someone with a lot of patience. She would usually seek the answer immediately for everything she wanted to know.

But now, she could only keep sighing in her heart as she stared at the sky.

Was it the Almighty’s intention to force her to change her habit of being impatient?
