Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

After sending Madam Zhang off and putting on a show, Sixth Madam Liang returned and saw Liu Shimei and Liang Yi still standing at the corridor. She could not help but glare at the two of them and said, “You two kids, you know that I’m struggling inside, right? It’s fine if you don’t help, but you’re still eavesdropping and laughing outside, right?”

Originally, she was not too far from them in age, so they were closer to each other.

Wasn’t it interesting to hear her call them ‘kids’?

“You can’t say that, Sixth Aunt!” Liang Yi giggled. “We’re juniors. If we go in and help you refute your elders, we’ll be scolded!”

He tilted his head and said, “Besides, Sixth Aunt alone is enough. If we all go in, won’t you be unable to show off your bravery if you bully others with numbers?”

“You’re so lame!” Sixth Madam Liang pointed at Liang Yi’s forehead.

He turned to Liu Shimei and said gently, “Shimei, what do you think of Sixth Aunt’s combat strength?”

Liu Shimei did not say anything and just gave her a thumbs up.

Sixth Madam Liang smiled and asked again, “I sec Madam Zhang’s expression. She’s very angry at the mention of you. Don’t tell me that you often anger her like this when you were in the Grand Chancellor’s Residence?”

“I’m innocent!” Liu Shimei rolled his eyes and said innocently, “I’ve never taken the initiative to slap others in the face, but if someone gives me a slap in the face, I’ll be sorry if I don’t slap them, right?”

“Haha! You’re right!” Sixth Madam Liang hugged Liu Shimei’s shoulders and said, “We have the same interests. Let’s go. Today, Sixth Aunt will bring you to the teahouse to listen to music?”

Liu Shimei shook her head. “It’s better not to. I don’t like listening to music. Let Ninth Brother accompany you, Sixth Aunt. King Dun Yu has something to do with me.”

If she only said that she did not like it, Madam Jiang suggest a lot of other things, but if she said that she had an appointment with King Dun Yu, there was nothing she could do.

At the mention of King Dun Yu, Madam Jiang’s face did not look good. She snorted and said, “Shimei, you should also pay attention to your manners. No matter what, you’re not married yet. It’s not a good thing to stick together every day. Although our family doesn’t think there’s anything wrong with it, if it spreads outside, it won’t be good for your reputation.”

Liu Shimei knew that she was concerned about her, so she did not feel unhappy about her words. She smiled lightly and said, “Sixth Aunt need not worry too much about this. There is a saying that goes, as long as you have a clear conscience, leave your merits and demerits to others to judge. To me, I only want to cherish what is in front of me and return the favor to whoever treats me well. As for what outsiders say, as long as I don’t hear it, it’s fine.”

In other words, if she heard it, she would not tolerate it. If she could, she would. Otherwise, she would beat him up.

“With your personality, you’re easily at a disadvantage!” Madam Jiang shook her head. “If your future in-laws are from the Liang family, then there won’t be much of a problem. Our family doesn’t care about red-tape. But in the future, you will be a member of the royal family. Once you enter the palace, you can’t be so willful!”

Liu Shimei chuckled. “Thank you for your concern, Aunt. I know my limits. Don’t worry.”

“Yes, Sixth Aunt. Why don’t you take a look at whose sister she is!” Liang Yi chimed in.

Madam Jiang glared at him. “You spoil her. You’ll take responsibility for her if she causes trouble!”

“So be it!” Liang Yi thought to himself, ‘Don’t tell me you guys won’t take responsibility for what sister did? Who would believe that?!’

Liu Shimei stood at the side and watched Liang Yi talk back to Madam Jiang. Seeing that Liang Yi was unwilling to lose out and insisted on arguing, Madam Jiang grabbed his ear again!

Liang Yi immediately complained. “Aiya, Aunt Liu! Not so hard! It hurts! It hurts!”

“Sister, please save me!” he shouted at Liu Shimei.

Liu Shimei laughed and went forward to rescue Liang Yi from Madam Jiang’s hands. She even said to him, “I told you to keep your mouth shut!”

“He’s the most useless one in our family!” Madam Jiang snorted and laughed.

Liang Yi rubbed his ears and pursed his lips. “That’s because the younger ones haven’t grown up yet. Who knows who will be the biggest loser in the future?!”

Liu Shimei’s face was full of smiles as he listened.

This kind of peaceful family life was really the life she had been longing for!
