“Okay, young mistress, will do!”
“It looks like we will have fruits soon enough!”
In the morning shortly after daybreak, Cheng Xiao Xiao was kicked away by her sister’s little Lan Lan’s little feet. When she woke up, she could already hear noises from the outside. She knew those were her father’s disciples by name cultivating.”
Cheng Xiao Xiao carefully pulled the blanket over her sister before she got up, washed up, and went to help her mother one some household matters. As for breakfast and what not, there were others to take care of those. They didn’t need to worry about them anymore. After a busy morning and everybody had breakfast and back to work. Innkeeper Zhu was teaching the servants and maids the proper way to greet guests.
Cheng Xiao Xiao didn’t leave the house but casually picked up some notes to read. Her mother Mrs. Cheng walked in from the outside and quietly handed her a letter to read.
“Mom, who’s the letter for?” Cheng Xiao Xiao was surprised.
Mrs. Cheng seemed a bit uneasy and said, “Xiao Xiao, you read first, then we will talk about it!”
Cheng Xiao Xiao didn’t say much more and started reading the letter. This was a letter for her mother. After she had finished reading it, her look was stone-cold. She handed the letter back to her mother and didn’t say a word.
“Xiao Xiao, do you want to meet her?” Mrs. Cheng studied her daughter’s face cautiously.
Cheng Xiao Xiao felt a slight headache. Of course she knew who her mother was referring to as “her”. She couldn’t help but to ask, “Mom, you want to meet her?”
“Xiao Xiao, I think we should. No matter what, you’ve had a marriage arrangement when you were kids, now that your Gu da niang send a letter to point that out. It’d be rude of us to just ignore her!” Mrs. Cheng expressed her thoughts on the matter.
