Chapter 411: Talking Bad About Me in Front of Me

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: End less Fantasy Translation

Madam Li’s condition was a chronic issue. It was not something that could be easily cured with a few acupuncture sessions. Besides, her age had taken its toll on her digestive system, and Liusishimei hadn’t prescribed any internal medications.

She had only prescribed a daily herbal foot soak and intended to leave. To her surprise, Miao Fengyu and Miao Linglong were waiting for her in the main hall.

“The last time at the Thousand Butterfly Valley wasn’t very pleasant, and I sincerely apologize for that, Eldest Miss Liu,” Miao Fengyu maintained a considerably polite demeanor, referring to the incident when a courtesan had offended Liu Shimei.

Miao Linglong added, “Shimei, my Third Brother, well, he’s not all that impressive and has this one flaw of being a bit too fond of the company of those less reputable. Please forgive him. In the future, he won’t be allowed to bring such unsavory characters and tarnish our reputation.”

Liu Shimei smiled faintly, her lips curled upwards but without giving a definite response.

What a clever choice of words, creating a division between Miao Fengyu and herself, with one playing the good cop and the other the bad cop.

The events of that day had originally been meant to outwit Zhang Miaozhen, but towards the end, it seemed to have caused trouble for her instead!

“You both needn’t be so formal; this is the Zhang Residence’s main hall. Let’s bid farewell to Madam Zhang first,” she said.

Hearing her words, Miao Linglong’s expression stiffened for a moment before she looked towards Madam Jiang and said, “Aunt Jiang is kind-hearted and won’t hold grudges against us youngsters.” She smiled and added, “However, we were indeed in the wrong this time, and we hope Aunt Jiang can forgive us.”

Having spoken her piece, Madam Jiang could not say much. Her smile appeared somewhat forced as she replied, “Then, I won’t see you off.”

Turning to Liu Shimei, her expression was noticeably more relaxed. “Eldest Young Miss Liu, thank you for today.”

“You’re too kind,” Liu Shimei replied with a nod, gave a courteous bow, and took leave with Huangfu Lingyao.

The two of them walked ahead, while Miao Fengyu and Miao Linglong followed behind.

Huangfu Lingyao occasionally glanced back at the two people behind him. As they walked out of Zhang Mansion’s gate, about to board the carriage, he suddenly stopped and pulled Liu Shimei to a halt, whispering, “Wife, are you really going to Miao Longzi’s house to treat that person?” (Longzi means deaf person)

Though it was meant to be a whispered conversation and his voice was lowered, it was not exactly hushed. Miao Linglong was following not too far behind and could not help but hear herself being referred to as ‘Miao Longzi’, causing her face to darken.

Being the proud legitimate daughter of a duke, how could she easily tolerate such an insult? She immediately retorted, “King Dun Yu, is it appropriate to badmouth me right in front of my face?”

Unexpectedly, Huangfu Lingyao turned to her directly, and declared in a loud voice, “I’ll say it right in front of you. Since you’ve heard it anyway, I might as well say it loudly! I don’t want Wife to go to your house to treat your people!”

Miao Linglong’s face grew even darker.

Liu Shimei wanted to laugh but thought it would be impolite. So, she suppressed the corners of her lips that were about to curl upward, cleared her throat, and said, “Lingyao, please be more polite.”

“What’s wrong with being impolite?” Huangfu Lingyao shot Miao Linglong a glance and said, “When has she ever been polite to me? I remember the last time I went to her house, she even threw a gecko at me!”

Miao Linglong could not help but be taken aback, struggling to remember when King Dun Yu had visited her home and when she had thrown a gecko at him.

Standing to the side, Miao Fengyu chuckled impishly. “Linglong, is King Dun Yu talking about something from five years ago? Back then… you were 10 or 11, right? Do you remember when King Dun Yu came to our Miao family? Do you recall?”

Miao Linglong was at a loss for words.bender

This Silly Second Prince actually remembers something from five years ago!

Remembering is one thing, but holding a grudge?

Unfortunately, the fool in her eyes not only remembered the incident but also the details….
