C78 (2/2)
”Lady, this must be the outer chamber!”
Du Ruoruo glared fiercely at her, then hurriedly said to Chu Yuehua, ”Miss, if this is discovered, then my reputation in this life will be ruined!”
In the end, Du Ruoruo still received rules and regulations from everyone. Chu Yuehua's actions were not something that a lady from a noble family could do. No wonder she was in such a hurry.
”Alright, Du Ruo, we'll be more careful. Besides, we're wearing men's clothes now, so we won't be recognized at first glance. We should be more careful, if we see anything wrong, we'll just hurry up and run.”
As she spoke, her feet moved towards that direction. Du Ruoruo couldn't stop her even if she wanted to, but it turned out that this was just a spectator, so she had no choice but to follow them inside.
However, it was just a two-way courtyard. It wasn't too big, but there was also a gatekeeper in front. It was likely that there was no shortage of servants.
After passing by the main entrance, Chu Yuehua brought the two of them around the backyard.
As expected, he heard someone speaking from inside.
”Daddy!”
It was the voice of a child.
With this, even Du Ruo's expression changed. She looked at Chu Yuehua in fright, while Lingruo had a face full of curiosity and playfulness.
”Look at what father bought you today!” Do you like it? ”
”I like it!”
The voice sounded like it was only four or five years old.
”Father rarely makes a trip here, why don't you pour father a cup of tea?” A woman's voice carried a smile as she said, ”Master, please sit over here.”
”Sigh!” How old is Li'er? Come here, let Father carry her! ”
Hearing this point, Chu Yuehua's lips revealed a smile, ”Let's go back!”
Du Ruyi heaved a sigh of relief. If he stayed any longer, he would show everyone what he was capable of!
When he returned to the house of the Marquis, it was just the evening just now. When Chu Xuanhua saw her return, he could not help but mutter to himself, ”How did you go out for an entire day? People say that you went into the manor, but don't think that I don't know where you went! At this moment, I'm helping you hide it from the others because I don't know what to do with you. If you keep running around like this all day long, when I see what's going on, I'll see how you're going to deal with this situation. ”
Just as they were talking, Qingying walked in lightly: ”Yo! Lady Yue came back! The old lady just so happens to want me to come over and ask! ”
”I was just about to go see the old lady!” Chu Yuehua pressed her elder sister's wrist, and then followed her with a smile, ”Is the old lady in good spirits today? Bring the snacks I bought with me. ”
This last sentence was said to Du Ruo, who hurriedly followed up with a box in her hands.
Sure enough, he saw the old lady talking to the third wife, and when he saw her coming over, he immediately broke into a smile, ”You're here?” However, after playing around for an entire day, I don't believe that they have gone out of their way, let alone doing any serious work. ”
After bowing to the third wife, he took the box from her and opened it, ”The one who understands me the best is the old lady and I can't hide anything from her. On the way here, I tasted some of the new dessert from the Treasure Moon Restaurant and it tasted pretty good.”
The old lady hurriedly let the Duan Clan have a taste as well.
Duan Clan then laughed. ”Yue Er bought it especially for Aunt, how can I be embarrassed!?”
In the end, she only tasted one piece before putting it down. It was the old lady who kept talking.
