C15 Scolding in Public

That day, when Lin Yue talked back to the old lady, she was ruthlessly beaten by the old lady. In the end, not only did she not get an apology from Lin Lai, she even got an apology from the old lady.

Lin Yue's eyes were red with grievance and she wanted to cry. However, due to the old lady, she clenched her fists tightly and unwillingly apologized to Lin Lai.

The days passed day by day, and it had been three to five days since the old lady had gotten sick. On this day, Lin Qu Fu came back and told Third Madame that she would prepare a feast to celebrate the old lady's illness.

When the people in the rooms heard that there was going to be a feast, they busied themselves with choosing gifts for the old lady.

In the Snowy Pavilion.

"Miss, the madame's banquet is about to begin. Have you decided on a present for the old lady?" The Summer Solstice was trying hard to educate them.

"Aiya, Xia Zhi, don't say that in my ear. Your elder sister Xia is so amazing, don't you know what to give?"

Lin Lai patted Xia Zhi's shoulder and said earnestly.

"Then miss, why don't you take out your present. It was so difficult and caused the madame to change her opinion of you. You must not lose this opportunity."

Suddenly, Lin Lai looked at the summer solstice with a serious expression.

Xia Zhi felt that his personality had changed a lot since the last time his family's young miss had gotten sick. Her cold demeanor had now become lively, making people feel close to her.

"Xia Zhi, do you know where the present is? The main thing is that it's with my heart, I don't care about anything else."

Xia Zhi nodded thoughtfully, as if he understood the reason behind his young mistress' calmness.

On the other side, in the Pear Xiang Pavilion.

"Yue'er, have you decided on what to give to the old lady for her banquet?"

Third Aunt asked as she looked at the dazed Lin Yue.

"Huh?"

Lin Yue was obviously out of sorts.

Third Madame took out a golden hairpin from a box to one side. It looked like the auspicious clouds were moving in the opposite direction. It was indeed a stunning sight to behold. But slowly, it was just an ordinary hairpin, vulgar and unbearable.

"Here, I know you didn't prepare any presents for the old lady. What? Still angry at the old lady? "Don't blame me for not reminding you, you won't get any benefits if you go against the old lady."

Lin Yue raised her head and seriously looked at the golden hairpin, the gorgeous appearance, and the swaying tassels. She reached for the box and placed it on the table in front of her.

Soon, it was the day of the banquet.

That evening, after Lin Lai woke up from his afternoon nap, it was already dark. She blamed Xia Zhi for not calling her. Xia Zhi watched with a baffled expression as Lin Lai took out the things he had prepared beforehand.

"Miss, what are you doing?" Lin pulled over the summer solstice.

"Stay here. I'm watching the fire. Wait for me to come back." After saying that, he hurriedly ran out.

After a while, she came back with lotus roots and corn.

"Miss, you want to make soup?" Lin Lai nodded his head. Not long later, he put all the items in the pot.

Xia Zhi looked at Lin Lai's hurried figure and didn't ask any further, just trying his best to light a fire.

The banquet had begun. The concubines in the rooms were all dressed in colorful outfits. Third Madame gave them a look before giving a cold laugh.

So what if he was dressed so extravagantly? In the end, didn't Lin Qufu also come back to look for him?

Everyone gave their gifts to the old lady. When the old lady saw the happy scene at home, she could not help but happily say a few good words.

When everyone was done with their departure, Lin Yue took the golden hairpin that Third Madame had given her and walked up to the old lady.

"Grandmother, this is the golden hairpin I've given you. I hope Grandmother will like it."

Even though Lin Yue had contradicted the old lady last time, the old lady was not angry at her for it.

"Alright, my Yue'er is too considerate. Quickly, go back and sit down."

Lin Yue nodded and left.

Great, Grandmother was willing to accept his gift, which meant that Grandmother's heart still had its own.

After Lin Yue returned, the old lady looked around but didn't see Lin Lai. She couldn't help but ask.

"Carrying the little girl, where did she go?"

The crowd coldly snorted but did not reply. They only had the strength to stand up and speak.

"Perhaps she went to get the items a little too late. Madame, please do not wait for her."

"What is it? I just don't think I want to come." Lin Zhou sneered.

The old lady glared at Lin Zhou and arranged for everyone to sit down.

After everyone sat down, Lin Lai slowly walked in with a bowl of soup. Everyone originally wanted to express their dissatisfaction with Lin La, but when they saw the old lady coming in with a smile on her face, they did not open their mouths to cause any trouble.

"Grandmother, Rui'er is late. Please forgive her."

The old lady smiled and said, "It's a family banquet. Say, do you want to play? Go back and sit down."

Grandmother, you've just recovered from your illness, so you shouldn't eat too greasy food. This is the lotus root corn soup that I've just made. Lin Lai took the spoon from Xia Zhi behind him and handed it to the old lady.

The old lady smiled as she received the spoon from Lin Lai. She happily picked up the spoon and took a sip.

"That's right." The old lady praised without being stingy.

"Where's my sister's present for Grandmother?" Lin Yue mocked from the side.

"This is my gift to Grandmother!"

Everyone looked at the bowl of soup and laughed. Who would take a bowl of soup as a present?

"Elder sister, is this gift comparable to my hairpin?" Lin Yue mocked, as if she couldn't tolerate Lin Lai's gifts.

Lin Lai looked at Lin Yue and said, "Gifts are a special kind of kindness. The soup I made for Grandmother is my kind intentions. Do I have any other questions for little sister?"

"Elder sister, you're too funny. I've never seen anyone give soup to others as a gift. It's better for elder sister to not say that it's someone from the manor."

As the old lady listened to Lin Yue's increasingly unpleasant words, the anger in her heart couldn't help but grow.

"Lin Yue, is that how your aunt taught you? For a little girl like you who only knows how to keep money in your mouth all day, do you still have the demeanor of a daughter of my Lin Clan? "

The old lady got angrier and angrier as she talked. It was only because Lin Xin kept helping her along the way that she didn't throw the bowl away.

Lin Yue couldn't help feeling wronged when she saw the old lady's red face scolding her. The old lady had never done something like this to Lin Yue in the past.

Lin Yue looked at the old lady who had been protecting her, and could not help but feel unwell in her heart.

"No matter how bad your sister was, she took care of me when I was sick. It seems that I have always been too indulgent towards you and did not even have basic manners anymore. If word of this got out, wouldn't others laugh their heads off?"
