Seeing that Hua Yuan only shook her head and did not say anything, Yuan Shi became even more anxious, ”Just tell Mother who bullied you. No matter who it is, Mother will make that person pay the price!”
Hua Yuan recalled the look in that person's eyes when she was listening to the drama and immediately felt a wave of disgust. What came to his mind was the sickening sounds he had heard in the house. Hua Yuan buried her head in his embrace. ”Mother, I'm afraid.”
”Don't be afraid, Iris. No matter what happens, I will always be by your side.”
Hua Yuan said: ”I feel like I drank a lot of this wine between the tables and it was obviously set up by someone. After my clothes were stained with wine, the maidservants brought me to the Warm Pavilion. You didn't know that there was someone in the Warm Pavilion, Li Man. A man and a woman! They... They're so disgusting! ”
The Yuan clan's face turned green! Hearing Hua Yuan's words, without even thinking, he could roughly guess what had happened between the two of them! She had never thought that the Duke of Wei's estate could be so out of place!
Hua Yuan's voice continued, ”Later on, when I was listening to the show, I heard that man's voice. It was clearly the voice of the man who appeared later on.”
All the women in this place were present. Even those who knew a little about the rules would not rashly barge in like this. After all, these women still had to be famous.
Originally, the Yuan clan had been holding back their anger. They really did not like the man who had barged in afterwards. Now that he had found out that his daughter's reputation had nearly been ruined, his mood was even worse!
Lady Yuan pulled Hua Yuan away and looked around to make sure that she was alright before calming down. ”It's good that you're alright. It's my mother who didn't protect you well. This definitely won't happen again.”
Hua Yuan only nodded.
Yuan Shi then said, ”Can you just forget about those matters?”
”Yes.”
As the carriage staggered back to the Residence of General, Hua Yuan felt a wave of exhaustion that she had never felt before. After she returned to the manor, she entered her own courtyard. She wanted to be alone for a while, she thought. In her previous life, Hua Yufei's greatest kindness towards her was probably because she didn't let others sully her during her worst times.
The weather had clearly gradually warmed up, but Hua Yuan felt waves of chills throughout her body.
Bai Qin, Ping'er, and the others didn't dare to disturb them. In reality, the two of them were also extremely scared. Every time they thought about what would happen to Hua Yuan at that time, they felt a wave of fear.
Mei'er and Cai Wei didn't know what was going on, but seeing that the mood wasn't good, they remained silent and didn't dare to speak.
It wasn't until the next day that Hua Yuan finally regained some spirit.
On the second day, Hua Yufei came over very early. After arriving, she sat down next to Hua Yuan and said, ”I saw that my sister came back yesterday, so she's not in a very good mood.”
Hua Yuan said, ”Thank you elder sister for your concern. I'm fine.”
Hua Yufei replied, ”It's not like I don't know what happened.” ”Don't worry, no matter what, I won't tell anyone.”
Without that smiling face, it would have been even more believable.
At this time, Jiu'er also brought in Hua Yuan's breakfast. The breakfast seemed to be rather rich. Hua Yufei did not stand on ceremony either. The bowl of porridge looked like a common dish, but it emitted an alluring fragrance. Hua Yufei picked up the spoon, scooped a spoonful of porridge and put it in her mouth to taste.
”Sister's cook is really not bad. She's much stronger than sister's cook.”
”They were all assigned by the residence, there's no difference.”
Hua Yufei sighed inwardly. ”That's right, there really isn't any difference. It's just that my place is to serve the Buddha. Naturally, no matter what happens, the dishes won't be as beautiful and sumptuous as the ones on your side, right?”
Hua Yuan felt that it was a bit strange. It seemed that ever since Hua Yufei had become high-profile, she had not shown her weakness in front of Hua Yuan for a very long time. Hua Yuan finally realized that Hua Yufei also had this kind of arrogant moment. Over time, even Hua Yuan felt that Hua Yufei should have lived in such a high-profile manner.
