Chapter 101 - 100: Interception
Mrs. Luo, who was the great-aunt of Ms. Chu, laughed and told her guests after the girl left, "Young Yan is overindulged and rarely meets strangers, so she’s somewhat timid. Please, bear with her."
Someone laughed, kids will grow up.
Another one complimented, such a beautiful child, as lovely as a blooming flower...
Another observed, goodness, she looks like a delicate jade maid by Guanyin’s side...
In sum, Ms. Chu was unexpectedly well-behaved yesterday, disappointing those who expected her to be foolish. Many were puzzled, wasn’t it said that Ms. Chu is immensely foolish? No resemblance! Young Miss Chu might be a little slow in reaction, perhaps due to the lack of guidance from female elders, and naturally scared of the sudden multitude of people. Still, she was exceptionally beautiful...
As for the significant person who disliked our girl, Manager Luo didn’t reveal much.
Mr. Luo dabbed at his eyes saying, "If master knew how well-behaved our young one was, he must’ve been ecstatic."
Manager Luo laughed, "The old Marquis, the head of the household, and Mrs. Luo adored her so much. Yesterday afternoon, our master had dispatched someone to Honglin Mountain to bring the good news to cheer up the master." Turning to Chen Afu he said, "Master asked me to thank you on his behalf; your clothing and puppets were beautiful, the young one is over the moon." Saying this, he took out a red envelope from his pocket, laughing, "This is the thank you gift from our master. I’ve prepared it in a special red envelope for you to join in the joy of our young one."
