Time Travel: The Noble Family

Ever since Ma Linlin returned, Yueyao, apart from visiting Lady family to see Keyue, seldom went out, and Ma Linlin did not take the initiative to go to Begonia Garden either.

Loo Ying was not so lucky, Ma Linlin had now wised up, changed tactics, and no longer openly made things difficult for Loo Ying, who always ended up suffering in silence.

Today, Loo Ying suffered another one of Ma Linlin’s difficulties, yet she did not dare to openly tell her grievances to Zhuang Ruolan, only showing up to pay respects with red-rimmed eyes.

Zhuang Ruolan, however, was somewhat troubled. It was okay when Lady Cheng returned; no matter what happened behind closed doors, Lady Cheng was at least willing to maintain a façade, but this younger sister-in-law had not improved, but become even worse, after spending such a long time in Luzhou. With such a temperament, even if a nurturing nanny were brought over, there was no way to straighten her out.

Cai Yi said with a smile, "Young lady, just let her be!" She’s not the Eldest Young Master’s own sister, Lady Cheng and the Eldest Young Master have many unsavory matters between them, as long as our young lady saves face, that’s enough.

Zhuang Ruolan shook her head, "It’s not that easy. With her behaving like this, I wouldn’t dare to take her out in public in the future, and her marriage will definitely be a troublesome matter."

Cai Yi couldn’t help shaking her head, "The young lady is really too caring. The Eldest Miss has her own mother, and she will also have a legitimate sister-in-law in the future, they naturally will worry about her. Even if you are good to her, she won’t take it to heart. The young lady is just too kind-hearted."

Ruo Lan shook her head helplessly, it wasn’t a matter of whether she was kind-hearted or not, it was something she couldn’t avoid. Ma Yue’s wife was of too low status; Lady Cheng, unpopular in these circles, didn’t get invited out, so it would inevitably fall to her to take Ma Linlin out. With such a character, not to mention those from influential families, even those of equal social standing would look down on her temperament. Having such a girl as a daughter-in-law would be a disaster.

Cai Yun laughed and said, "Young lady, you worry too much, and can’t possibly take care of everything. This matter will naturally resolve itself when the time comes. Young lady, I think you should remind Miss Yueyao. Miss Ying pays her respects to the Madam daily, but Miss Yueyao has only done so on the first day and hasn’t gone since."

Yueyao still carried on in her previous manner, paying her respects to Lady Cheng only on the first and fifteenth days. Just like Yueyao, Loo Ying held the same status and paid her respects to Lady Cheng daily, but Yueyao did not, which made Yueyao’s behavior rather conspicuous.

Zhuang Ruolan frowned slightly, but in the end, she shook her head and said, "Yueyao is a child with her own ideas. Since she’s acting this way, she must have her reasons." Zhuang Ruolan did not believe Yueyao was unaware of the impropriety of her actions, and since she knew but still chose to act this way, she naturally wouldn’t say more.
