Chapter 38 A Poisonous Sword-like Tongue [1], Part 2

But Zi You lightly smiled and politely bowed. “Yes, daughter will certainly remember father and mother’s teachings.”

Her attitude was so good that one could not tell she was the slightest bit discontent. But early this morning, this darned girl left the house. By the time she [Wang Yiping] knew about it, she [Zi You] was bidding farewell.

She and Laoye were very unhappy when they heard. Laoye even immediately reprimanded, “Didn’t you say you weren’t going yesterday? Why did you suddenly change your mind? You’er, you’re really getting more presumptuous. You dare to be two-faced to your parents?”

Who knew the darned girl would unhurriedly retort, “Father, daughter would disagree with your words. You’er never changed her mind. But I was afraid my parents would worry and be unable to sleep, so I hid the information. Besides, I was obeying grandfather’s request that I did so. On account of daughter’s filial piety, please don’t be angry, father.”

Finished speaking, she curtsied and leisurely left.

That was one thing and this was another. From the time she came back till now, this girl had not come to pay her respects.

Even if she and Laoye were angry and did not come out to greet her, her [Zi You] purchasing so many slaves, she eventually should have come to tell them right?

There was another thing that made her uneasy. That girl spent all day mysteriously puttering around her deceased mother’s Hundred Herb Garden. Once there, she stayed the whole afternoon.

One didn’t know what she was up to. Once she went to take a look on the pretense of sending over food, but ShiYun barred her entry. “Xiaojie is taking an afternoon nap inside. No one is to disturb her.”
