Chapter 110 - 109: Sue Your Family
As soon as Granny Tan’s words left her mouth, they caused Ye Xinyan to frown deeply. Just having a bit of family wealth means you can forget all decency and become unable to understand kind words?
Ye Xinyan sneered inwardly while her gaze shifted back and forth between Grandma Tan and Liang Wanqiu several times, feigning confusion as she asked, "This... please forgive my ignorance, madam, I thought your Miss was acquainted with the two distinguished guests in my shop, so there was no need to avoid each other. Is it not so? Just now, your Miss even took the initiative to talk to one of the gentlemen, I wasn’t mistaken."
No sooner had Ye Xinyan finished speaking than Grandma Tan nearly stepped forward to cover her mouth, and the serene and elegant demeanor Liang Wanqiu managed to maintain was lost as her pretty face turned red with embarrassment, glaring fiercely at Granny Tan.
This peasant woman is truly detestable; if she continues like this, won’t she directly accuse the Eldest Miss of the Liang Household of being loose and lacking manners?
Mother Yang quickly came out to smooth things over, "Lady Qi, you were not mistaken, the two gentlemen are very prestigious, one is Sixth Master Rong, the other is the magistrate of Qingyuan County, Lord Jiang. Both gentlemen have a brotherly relationship with the head of our household and are regular guests at our residence; we are well-acquainted with them."
That’s why Mother Yang is favored by her masters over Granny Tan—look how capably she handles things. The Eldest Miss of the Liang Household would certainly not lack that little bit of silver, and we cannot let her get a reputation for dining and dashing.
However, the silver can be paid, but this Lady Qi... cannot be left feeling smug.
Mother Yang’s demeanor became stern as she glanced at Liang Wanqiu, seeing her young mistress’s dark expression, clearly not willing to let things go.
