Chapter 238: Chapter 236: Adding Winter Clothes, The Whole Family Rejoices
Di Cheng had an embarrassed look on his face, as if there was a ball of fire burning on it.
“Third Aunt, don’t worry. Next time, I won’t let her… let my mom…”
Di Cheng stammered for a long time, unable to come up with a clear explanation.
“It’s alright. I understand it’s hard for you since she’s your mother. Just hand her over to me and take care of the bookstore.”
Liu Sisi comforted him, explained some matters, and then left the bookstore with the two quiet children and Di Yelei, headed straight for Gan Mansion.
“If Ms. Wang comes again, will you really have her arrested?”
Di Yelei asked with a smile.
“What do you think?”
Liu Sisi asked him back, “Given Ms. Wang’s nature, do you think she will give up just like that? Let’s wait and see!”
With that, she raised her chin, gave a mysterious smile, and walked briskly towards the stone steps at the entrance of Gan Mansion.
Today, the Old Madam of Gan Estate was absent, and Gan Miaoruo happened to be at home. She listened attentively to Liu Sisi’s lessons for four hours and still seemed unsatisfied. She then asked Di Yelei to teach her archery.
Considering there was a dedicated martial arts teacher, Liu Sisi naturally hesitated.
“The teacher is getting stingier and stingier, humph!”
Gan Miaoruo wrinkled her little nose, “The teacher who teaches me martial arts is so boring, always asking me to squat. I’m about to have crab legs, never teaching me anything else! Now you’re making all sorts of excuses too, I’m not happy!”
After saying that, she pouted and ignored everyone.
Di Yelei and Liu Sisi exchanged glances, seeing the amusement in each other’s eyes, and didn’t get angry.
“Miss Gan, it’s not a big deal to learn martial arts, but after all, there is a difference between men and women. Even if I want to teach you martial arts, teaching you archery will inevitably lead to physical contact. It may not matter to me, but you are a precious lady. If the Old Madam finds out or is seen by others, the consequences…”
With Di Yelei’s analysis, Gan Miaoruo’s pout naturally deflated. She grumbled for a while before sitting reluctantly at the edge of a nearby pavilion.
“Alright! Grandmother definitely won’t let me learn from you, it’s so disappointing…”
As she spoke, she kicked the mud on the ground.
“Ruo Ruo, if you want to learn martial arts, why don’t you come to our house next time and I’ll take you up to the mountain to dig traps, those specially designed for catching wild boars.” Di Xuan, who was practicing calligraphy in the pavilion, hurriedly stepped in to help his parents.
Gan Miaoruo’s eyes suddenly lit up, “Is digging traps fun?”
“It’s fun! Last time dad took me, we directly pulled out several wild pheasants from the traps. If you’re lucky, there are rabbits, roe deer, weasels, and wild boars, you can find everything, it’s so awesome!”
Di Xuan demonstrated excitedly, quickly attracting Gan Miaoruo’s attention.
Liu Sisi breathed a sigh of relief, knowing taking the children with them was the right choice. Di Yelei also relaxed; after all, she was a noble miss, and he couldn’t bear the responsibility if anything happened to her.
