C32 (1/2)
This feeling was probably because even though you knew there was a hole in front of you, you had no choice but to jump into it.
He had to hold it in. It was hard to hold it in!
Hua Yuan went over and said in a concerned tone, ”Alright! Elder sister, you should recuperate well.”
Leaving the small Buddhist Hall, Hua Yuan actually felt quite good inside. Regardless of whether or not this matter would cause Hua Yufei any real harm, just looking at her being humiliated was enough to make Hua Yuan feel refreshed.
Bai Qin followed behind Hua Yuan and whispered, ”Miss, didn't you see how depressed the young miss was just now?”
Ever since she found out about Hua Yufei's character, Bai Qin had always disliked her in every way! In the past, he only felt that this young miss was weak and delicate, but her heart was vicious.
Hua Yuan smiled.
The next day, Hua Yuan was wearing a bright yellow jacket with an oily yellow jade hairpin on her head. Her hair was tied up with a homochromatic ribbon and tied with a butterfly knot. Her ears were covered with a pair of green water earrings.
”Bai Qin, bring the scented tea that I brewed.”
Today, he was going to pay a visit to Du Qiao for an appointment. She made the flower tea according to what he had learned, directly using the flowers and plants she planted in his courtyard. Best for women and children.
Because he had a good relationship with Du Qiao, he took this as a gift.
After all, there was still a taboo when it came and go between gifts and meals. It was a little far away, so the food that was sent was not suitable at all.
Bai Qin was holding a porcelain jar, her face looked somewhat conflicted. Although the Du Family wasn't some aristocratic family, Du Qiao's mother was still the Eldest Princess. If he were to gift a pot of flowery tea like this, wouldn't it be a joke on him?
As a result, Bai Qin looked at Hua Yuan with a hesitant expression.
Hua Yuan found this funny and finally couldn't help but say to Bai Qin, ”Okay, I know what you want to say. This is a gift to Du Qiao because of my heart. If it were anyone else, I would not have given it!”
”Yes, yes, yes. Miss, you have a good relationship with Miss Du.”
However, before he left, he was stopped by Chuchu in the old mistress' courtyard. Hua Yuan asked, ”Sister Chuchu, what's wrong with stopping me?”
”It was the madame who had orders for you.”
”I know.”
She didn't need to think about it to know that it was because she didn't bring Hua Yufei out with her. She couldn't help but feel upset, wanting to find fault with him. It didn't matter if he went to deal with it, but it was too late for him.
Biting her lower lip, he followed her back to the old mistress' courtyard.
When they arrived at the entrance of the yard, Chuchu gestured for Hua Yuan to enter. Hua Yuan nodded and stepped in, ”Grandmother, I heard that you were looking for me.”
”Kneel!”
The tone of the madame's voice contained a hint of sternness, scaring Hua Yuan. She raised her head and looked at the madame, ”Grandmother?”
His tone was filled with disbelief.
”What is it? You even dare to disobey my words now? ”Is my grandmother useless in your eyes?”
Hua Yuan couldn't bear it any longer and knelt straight down.
This world was still about filial piety. Although it could be said that a father was benevolent and a son was filial, it was always a son who was unfilial and was criticized by many. Facing the madame, Hua Yuan could only bear with it no matter how dissatisfied he was.
The madame then opened her eyes and glared at Hua Yuan, asking, ”What did I tell you yesterday?” How did you do it? ”
Tears welled up in Hua Yuan's eyes as she spoke in an aggrieved tone, ”Grandmother, are you saying that you didn't bring your elder sister with you when you went to the banquet today? But yesterday Iris had gone to see her eldest sister, who said she was so ill that it was difficult for her to get out of bed. Iris couldn't bear to see her big sister being tortured like that! Iris only wants to make big sister's illness recover early! ”
”You're so young, yet you've already learned how to quibble!”
”No!”
