Chapter 195: Chapter 193: Recommendation
Di Yelei spoke very seriously.
“Oh, I see.”
Liu Sisi nodded in confusion.
She soon felt that something was not right, but she couldn’t pinpoint what exactly was wrong.
“Teacher! Teacher, you’re here too?”
A joyful voice came from a slant, and Gan Miaoruo in a pink autumn dress suddenly ran over from the side. She looked at her excitedly and glanced around.
She wore a pink rose-colored tight wide-sleeve robe top, a light green smoke yarn broken flower skirt underneath, and a gold silk belt tied with a big butterfly knot in front of her.
On both sides of her head, she had two buns with green-jade hairpins slanting.
A string of pink pearls adorned her forehead, and a pink pearl dangling between her eyebrows perfectly accentuated her playful expression.
“Eh! Where’s YingEr? How come I don’t see her? Did you not bring her out with you, Teacher?”
Her crisp “Teacher” was loud and clear, immediately attracting the attention of many people around, who looked over one after another.
“YingEr and the others have gone to play. Ruo Ruo, did you come alone today?”
“No way, I guessed that Teacher would come to the temple fair, so I came with my grandmother. Look, she’s over there!”
Following Gan Miaoruo’s direction, Liu Sisi looked up and saw Madam Gan Senior, with a smile on her face, slowly walking towards them accompanied by her servants.
She hurriedly got up and quickly walked a few steps forward to greet her: “Sisi greets Madam Gan Senior.”
Madam Gan Senior, wearing a double-breasted thin robe with auspicious clouds patterns, looked kindly at Liu Sisi while smiling, her eyes nearly narrowed to a slit. Seeing Liu Sisi bowing, she quickly walked forward to help her up. “No need for such formalities, please rise. My granddaughter mentioned you early this morning, wondering if you would come to the temple fair today. As fate would have it, we meet again here.”
“Madam, you are too kind. Sisi is here today with her husband and son. It’s a day of reunion, so we had to come to the temple fair.”
“As you should. And this is…?”
Just as Madam Gan Senior asked, she looked straight at Di Yelei, who was standing beside Liu Sisi, and couldn’t help but continue her question.
Liu Sisi turned her head and suddenly realized, quickly introducing the two parties: “Oh! Madam Gan, this is my husband, Di Yelei. Yelei, this is Madam Gan Senior and her granddaughter, Miss Gan I mentioned to you.”
Di Yelei hurriedly took a step forward to pay his respects: “Yelei greets Madam Gan Senior and Miss Gan.”
“So you are the third son of Di family. I have heard a lot about your outstanding appearance and extraordinary martial arts. Now that I see you in person, your reputation is well-deserved. Please rise, there is no need for Ruo Ruo to greet you since she is Sisi’s student.”
As she spoke, Madam Gan Senior helped Di Yelei up, her face full of surprise as she looked him up and down, then nodded satisfactorily.
Di Yelei was also quite embarrassed. They all sat down at the edge of the flower stand and began to chat at ease.
Despite Di Yelei’s honest appearance, he dealt with Madam Gan Senior far more smoothly than Liu Sisi.
Liu Sisi couldn’t help but feel embarrassed listening to them.
Upon further thought, she was indeed unfamiliar with social interactions like this, both in her previous life and now.
