Chapter 151 Aunt Liu
Chapter 151 Aunt Liu
At this moment, Qian Jinyun, whom the two mentioned, was squatting on Biluo Peak, looking worried.
"Why can't we find it? Are you not trying hard enough? Achoo!"
Qian Jinyun was so anxious that she scratched her head and cheeks. If she couldn't find the herbs, she would always be a fat person that people would find repulsive. If she was always a fat person, she would never have the chance to look at her again.
Thinking about this made him even more irritable, and his expression became impatient.
"Young master, why don't we go home first! Achoo!"
"Yes, yes, young master, let's go down the mountain first and then think of a solution. Achoo!"
"Young master, everything depends on fate. Perhaps our time hasn't come yet because we haven't found the herbs. Achoo!"
Several of his men urged their master to change his mind and go down the mountain quickly, otherwise they would all die of cold in the wilderness sooner or later.
Who knew the temperature difference between day and night in these mountains would be so great? It's unbearably hot during the day, but at night, the wind blowing through the forest is so cold that your teeth chatter.
As the group played the flute, snot and tears streamed down their faces. They all seemed to be in the dead of winter. If they had frozen to death in the summer, few people would have believed it.
When Qian Jinyun heard the word "fate," her eyes suddenly lit up. Perhaps that really was the case; it was all because their fate hadn't arrived yet that there was no progress.
"Alright! Let's pack up and head back. Achoo!"
He laughed heartily, his mood instantly improving, and led a few of his men down the mountain.
……
Qian Ruoyun returned home with the medicine prescribed by Ye Xiaoxiao, and happened to run into Aunt Liu.
Aunt Liu was her father's concubine. Not long after she entered the household, she always pretended to be a frail and delicate woman, which made people furious.
But for some reason, her father just happened to like this type.
Qian Ruoyun rolled her eyes at the person who had to stop and catch her breath even while walking, and decided not to greet her, intending to just walk past Aunt Liu.
But Aunt Liu deliberately went up to cause trouble.
"Young Miss is back? Why didn't you greet your elders? Is it something I, as a concubine, have done wrong? If so, please tell me, and I will correct it."
After saying that, she put on a tearful look, covered her face with a handkerchief, and wiped away non-existent tears.
Seeing her appearance, Qian Ruoyun scoffed coldly: "Aunt Liu, my father isn't home now. Who are you trying to fool with this delicate act? I'm not buying it!"
"Young Miss, is there something I did wrong that made you angry?"
Aunt Liu swayed and was about to fall to the side when she was caught by a maid, and she managed to stand up.
When Qian Ruoyun thought of this seemingly weak and helpless person who had a heart of stone and dared to poison her own mother, she was instantly filled with rage.
"Aunt Liu, please recognize your place! You're nothing but a lowly maidservant my father took a fancy to on a whim, yet you dare to act like an elder in front of me? Who gave you the audacity? If Aunt Liu hasn't learned her manners properly, I don't mind hiring someone to teach you!"
Aunt Liu was struck on a sore spot by Qian Ruoyun, and her face turned pale with anger. Her hands, hidden in her sleeves, clenched tightly together, as if she wanted to tear the person in front of her to pieces.
Qian Ruoyun glanced at Aunt Liu, who was embarrassed, smiled mockingly, and continued walking past her.
If she stayed any longer, she feared she would rush up and tear off the hypocritical mask on this person's face, but she knew the time was not yet right.
Halfway there, Qian Ruoyun stopped and looked back at Aunt Liu, her eyes filled with undisguised disgust and contempt.
“Aunt Liu, if there’s anything you’ve done wrong… it’s that your very existence in the Qian family is a colossal mistake!”
Qian Ruoyun quickly withdrew her gaze, her expression disdainful, as if looking at the other person would taint her eyes. She turned and continued walking, soon disappearing around the corner.
"You!" Aunt Liu stretched out her hand, trembling with anger. Her eyes were red as she stared at the spot where Qian Ruoyun had left, gritting her teeth.
Hmph! Before long, I'll show you who the real mistress of the Qian family is!
……
Qian Jinyun led several of his men straight to Wuji Hall.
Ye Xiaoxiao looked at the several disheveled men in front of her, who were also snotty-nosed, and her lips twitched violently.
The scene was inexplicably hilarious and funny.
It also carries a hint of eeriness.
