C27 (1/2)
The next morning, Hua Yuan stood up and went to check on the Yuan family before going to pay respects to the madame.
It wasn't that Hua Yuan respected this grandmother of his so much. After all, she could already see her own granddaughter as an enemy, and Hua Yuan wasn't that sort of despicable person. However, in the eyes of the people, she was still her granddaughter.
Being unfilial to her relatives, she, Hua Yuan, would be completely destroyed by this. If Hua Yuan were to really do such a thing, she believed that he would definitely do it!
As expected, the one standing at the door was Chuchu.
”Hello Sister Chuchu.”
Chu Tianlang smiled. His proper appearance made people feel that he was even more of a lady than Hua Yufei!
”Mistress is doing well. The madame's temper isn't too good today. Pay attention.”
Hua Yuan knew that Chuchu was reminding her. She smiled and said, ”Thank you, Sister Chuchu, for the reminder. However, I wonder why Grandmother is in a bad mood?”
Chuchu said, ”The young miss has been sick ever since she came back from the Yuanfu Realm.”
Hua Yuan understood in her heart, ”Thank you so much, Sister Chuchu. Iris knows. ”
Why was there not a single sound from the manor when she came back yesterday? If she hadn't cooperated with Hua Yufei's movements yesterday, she would have been beaten up when she came back.
He was actually waiting here.
Having made preparations in his heart, he felt much more at ease when he entered.
”Greetings to Grandmother from our granddaughter.” Hua Yuan said.
The heavens knew how much she wanted to stand up and rush over to the madame, shake her awake, and ask her why she was treating her like that!
But in the end, she endured it.
The old mistress responded faintly, ”Yes.”
The old mistress' voice was full of disdain. Suddenly, she opened her eyes and shot a sharp gaze at Hua Yuan. ”I told you to bring your sister out to see the world. Don't you want to protect your sister this way?”
Hua Yuan asked with an ignorant expression, ”What happened to elder sister?”
”Your sister is so sick that she can't even get up, yet you still … tell me, when you were in the Yuan family, how did you treat your sister?”
”Grandmother, big sister, she — are you so angry because your big sister fell into the water at the Outer Ancestor's house? Grandmother, I didn't know my sister would fall into the water.
Hearing such a soft voice, how could a grandmother who normally doted on a child be willing to be angry at such a thing? But the madame was not the least bit moved. She said to Hua Yuan, ”In a while, ask Bai Qin to go get a doctor. Also, doesn't your mother still have 100 year old wild ginseng? It just so happens that I need to nourish your sister's body as well. ”
Hua Yuan lowered her head, feeling a chill in her heart. The smile on his face was full of mockery. He was so greedy! Two days ago, he had taken a fancy to his mother's jewellery and wanted it greedily. Now, he wasn't even going to let go of the wild ginseng!
Hua Yuan could not understand how she had been defeated by such a group of petty people in her previous life!
However, at this moment, Hua Yuan understood that what these people relied on was nothing but shamelessness!
If a person didn't even care about face, then what else could she not do?
Although her heart was filled with hatred, Hua Yuan knew that this was far from being the time for her to have a falling out with them. Therefore, she had to endure it and said, ”Grandmother, my mother was not feeling well two days ago.
The Yuan clan's physique was not too good to begin with. Now that they were pregnant, it would be another hurdle for them to give birth. Who knew if there would be any accidents at that time? If there really was a chance, what could he do?
With this 100-year-old wild ginseng, it was at least a guarantee for the Yuan family's production time! Did he really think that she was a fool? Take it out and give it to the madame, Hua Yufei?
