Chapter 405: Chapter 405 - 405 Questioning

405 Questioning

Little Ah Yu immediately put down the brush and greeted Wang Chuanfu before returning to her room.

Tang Yuan poured hot tea for Wang Chuanfu and Wang Wulang. Just as she was about to help Little Ah Yu prepare hot water, she saw Liang Xue carrying a basin of hot water in.

“Ah Yu, this is the warm bath soak I just learned today. Soak your feet before bed. It can clear your meridians and even strengthen your body.” Liang Xue brought the hot water to Little Ah Yu’s bed and was very enthusiastic, wanting to take off Little Ah Yu’s socks.

Little Ah Yu hurriedly dodged.

Little Ah Yu was not used to being served by others. Usually, she would wear her own clothes, shoes, and socks and even take a shower herself.

If Liu Shi was not so busy, Little Ah Yu would have asked Liu Shi for help because Liu Shi really wanted to take care of Little Ah Yu herself. This was a small tacit understanding between the mother and daughter.

Even Tang Yuan would not disturb her from doing these things.

Other than Liu Shi, Little Ah Yu was not used to others’ help.

“Big Sister Liang Xue, it’s already so late. Go and rest quickly. Thank you for sending this to me. I’ll soak my feet later myself.”

Liang Xue did not leave. Instead, she stood rooted to the ground.

Little Ah Yu was anxious to see the mission, so she asked, “Big Sister Liang Xue, do you have something to tell me?”

Teacher Yang had said that a person who suddenly treated her well must have a motive. They would either ask for her help or wanted to know something.

“It’s not a big deal.” Liang Xue lowered her head slightly, not letting Little Ah Yu see her expression. She said in an extremely low voice, “It’s just that someone in the village wanted to ask today. I felt that it wasn’t good to ask him, so I wondered if I could ask you.”

“What is it?”

“Brother Dalang—” Liang Xue paused and said, “I heard that your brother has already been engaged. She’s a girl from the county city? Do you know which family she’s from?”

Little Ah Yu frowned. “I don’t know. The adults won’t tell me about this.”

Even if she knew, she would not say anything.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

This was because Little Ah Yu felt that since this girl was related to someone else, she could not say it casually. It would ruin her reputation.

Grandma had said that a girl’s reputation was very important. She could ignore her family, but a good reputation outside could save a lot of trouble.

“Then it’s fine. You have to soak your feet while it’s hot. Let me know when you’re done. I’ll bring the basin out.”

Liang Xue quickly left.

Little Ah Yu looked at the basin under her and then at the departing Liang Xue. In the end, she still took her time to take off her shoes and socks and wash her feet.

At this moment, Tang Yuan entered. “Little Master, are you so at ease to use the things she gave you? She just started learning medicine not long ago and doesn’t even have the right to practice medicine. If something bad happens when your feet are soaked in water, you’ll be the one in pain.”

“It’s fine. Big Sister Liang Xue is just being kind.” Little Ah Yu smiled and waved her little feet. She said sweetly, “In the future, I’ll still use the hot water given by Big Sister Tang Yuan because Big Sister Tang Yuan’s water is just right.”

Tang Yuan laughed at Little Ah Yu’s coaxing. The slight unhappiness in her heart was swept away.

There was nothing to be unhappy about.

She was the only maidservant of Old man Wang’s family. There was no reason for this person who wanted to practice medicine to snatch her job as a maidservant.

Her status as a maidservant should be stable.

However, she had to be careful in the future.

Tang Yuan thought about this in her heart, but her movements were still smooth and quick.

Soon, she tidied up Ah Yu’s bed and lit a mosquito repellent wormwood incense for her. She brought the hot water out and finally closed the door.

Only then did Little Ah Yu crawl under the blanket and close her eyes. Her consciousness entered the spatial pocket.

The box from the Hua Family had already been placed on the table. The things inside had not been touched.

Little Ah Yu looked at the shiny golden things. As she stretched out her little finger and fiddled with them, she asked, “Elf, what can trigger the mission inside? They all look the same to me.”
