Chapter 1275 - 165, Talented Lady (Second Update)
Lady Han and Lady Meng were also infuriated to the point of seeing stars by Lady Liu’s seemingly elegant but actually rude description, but as angry as they were, they couldn’t think of anything to say in retaliation. After all, what Lady Liu had said was indeed the truth that Xia Zheng, that little rascal, despite the presence of Su Qiuyu and Yao Hanai, had fallen for Lin Yuan, a petty village girl. Didn’t this mean their daughters were even less desirable than toads?
Lady Han immediately felt like she had lifted a rock only to drop it on her own feet.
Outside the door, Lin Yuan was laughing so hard her mouth almost reached the back of her head. She really wanted to give her mother a big thumbs up! She had never realized Lady Liu could be so capable!
Now, she was truly reassured.
A maid happened to be on her way to deliver refreshments to the room and curiously observed Lin Yuan, who was crouching by the door and sniggering, completely puzzled by the sight.
Lin Yuan was no stranger to the General Mansion, and the little maids within all recognized her, especially because in their eyes, she had already become a figure like the Second Young Lady.
Embarrassed by the way the little maid was staring at her as though she were a strange creature, Lin Yuan gave an awkward chuckle, straightened up, cleared her throat softly, patted down her skirt, and adjusted her clothes before entering the floral hall under the maid’s watchful eye.
While Su Qiuyu and Su Zhe were not simple individuals, Madam Su tended to be more bark than bite. As Lin Yuan entered the floral hall, the previously unsatisfied Lady Han, who had been complaining to Lady Liu, suddenly fell silent.
Lin Yuan found it quite amusing to see Lady Han looking so deflated. It seemed that Lady Liu’s recent words had really choked her, and now she was so angry she couldn’t even speak.
"Yuanyuan, you’ve arrived!" Seeing Lin Yuan, Lady Liu happily waved her over and, with affection, smoothed out her slightly disheveled hair.
Lin Yuan knew that Lady Liu was purposely putting up this nonchalant act, so as to not worry her.
