Looking Forward to Your Returning - C32

When the silver landed in the hands of the Old Mrs. Liu and the Aunt Liu, Qu Yuanqiao frowned as he asked, “How did the Madam’s dowry come to the Old Mistress?”

Auntie Gu exaggerated the facts slightly according to Qu Qingge’s explanation while trembling in fear.

Qu Qingge, who was wearing a light blue family gown, leaned on the imperial concubine’s bed. “Is he angry?”

She arrived too early and stopped Fructus Tripterygii when she was looking around the fake mountain.

“Second Miss, the madame is washing her face and rinsing her eyes.” Fructus Tripterygii had been threatened by her the last time, and now that she looked so dispirited, she wanted to run away the moment she arrived.

“There’s no need to rush. Mama is the most useful person in the madame’s room. I don’t need you to bother me with small matters.”

Fructus Tripterygii was seen through by her, her old face was red from holding in her breath, she did not want to admit that she was afraid when she saw the calm and composed Second Miss.

“My father will be here soon. Remember to give him his most beloved Da Hong Pao.”

So it was only this matter. Fructus Tripterygii heaved a sigh of relief. The Second Miss who had hidden in the shadows of the fake mountain was like a ghost that caused her to tense up.

When she returned to the main hall, the girls in the main room had all arrived. She looked around and casually found a seat.

Very quickly, Qu Qingyu and her daughter came over together.

Seeing that someone had actually managed to seat her, Qu Qingyu’s beautiful face grew extremely long. She had never liked Qu Qingge to begin with, and now, with her nose that was not his, she kept sneering at.

“Second Sister, is Second Aunt feeling better when she goes to the southern suburbs this time?” Qu Qingshuang had always been a proud and aloof person when she read books, but when she saw that Qu Qingyu was blowing her eyebrows and glaring at her just for a seat, she took the initiative to take Qu Qingge’s arm and pulled her to the side of her seat.

“It’s much better now. The scenery in the countryside is great, and the air is fresh. Mother can eat and sleep.” Qu Qingge was mischievous.

Her mischievous act caused everyone’s eyeballs to fall out of their sockets.

The timid Second Miss in their eyes had actually become so lovable?

The Aunt Liu and her daughter lowered their heads with a cold face, their expressions could not be seen. On the other hand, the Old Mrs. Liu was in a good mood as she laughed, “If you want to stay in the Manor well, then stay for a few more days.”

Yu Shi’s dowry was worth a month’s worth of money, which was equivalent to half a year’s worth of Uncle’s income.

This was because the ten thousand taels of silver that she had dug out from Yu Shi’s house had enriched her private house. Now, even her granddaughter, who she hated the most, felt that her face had become friendly.

After that, she slowly sat down, and the corner of her eyes swept over the situation in the north-east corner. It was the end of the morning, and it was time for Qu Yuanqiao to lower his value.

Old Mrs. Liu repeatedly used her hand to signal them that she was tired, but the people that were sitting did not leave. Just as she was about to remind them, she heard from Qu Yuanqiao.

“Old master is here. Prepare some tea.” Aunt Liu had not seen him for a while since the embryo’s body had recovered, hence he waited here, hoping to seize the opportunity to reclaim his beloved.

Old Mrs. Liu was not happy that she had overstepped her boundaries, but she was still fine with it since one was her niece and the other was her own son.

“Mother, Yu Family’s shop …” As soon as he entered, he went straight to the point.

But when he saw that the room was full of people, he felt embarrassed.

He had never expected there to be so many people in the house.

“What are you talking about? Her shop is naturally in her hands. Why are you asking me?”

Old Mrs. Liu’s face was filled with displeasure. Those silver were all behind her back, how could she openly say it out loud?
