Chapter 75 - 38 Mrs. Li Has a Daughter Now
"Acting?" Liu Ya’s eyes widened in astonishment.
Mrs. Li’s eyes also widened in astonishment, her silence implying: you actually didn’t see it coming.
The astonishment filled in Liu Ya’s widened eyes clearly indicated to Mrs. Li: Yes, I didn’t see it, nor did I think of it!
Mrs. Li rolled her eyes towards the sky: Speechless!
Liu Ya awkwardly cast down her gaze: Ashamed!
"Ah, you!" Mrs. Li let out a sigh full of mixed emotions, patting Liu Ya on the shoulder with heartfelt emphasis, "You are Sang Wan’s accompanying maid, destined to become her left and right hand! Girl, you still have so much to learn! Just take what happened today with Qiu Ju, for instance. You shouldn’t have let her bully you and then put Sang Wan in a difficult position! You should have grabbed her on the spot and taken her to the second lady!"
Startled, Liu Ya said, "But how would she willingly come with me?"
Mrs. Li sneered: "Of course, she wouldn’t be willing to go with you! Therefore, she must submit to you and beg for your forgiveness! The hand that slapped you must be made to slap her own face several times harshly!"
A flicker in Liu Ya’s eyes showed that she was moved, as if she had a sudden realization.
"Liu Ya has learned her lesson! Please continue to give me guidance, Mrs. Li! Teach me!" Liu Ya said with a sincere face, stepping back two paces and bowing deeply to Mrs. Li with the utmost respect.
"Enough, enough! No need for such formality, I’m just an old lady and don’t care for this!" Mrs. Li said with worldly wisdom, "There’s really nothing to teach, it depends on one’s own understanding! If you live to my age safe and sound, without any dangers, then you’ll understand everything!"
