Chapter 423: A Few Pieces of Shu Brocade

Therefore, for the sake of Cen Yueyi, Mrs. Wei treated Cen Yuehua very well and even asked her maid to bring a shrimp whisker gold bracelet as a New Year gift for the young man.

Cen Yuehua's eyes flickered, and she looked very lively and playful. She put on the shrimp-whisker gold bracelet and said coquettishly to Grandma Wei, "Grandma Wei, I came to return your festival gift, and you gave me such an expensive meeting gift. It seems like I am trying to covet your good things."

She raised her wrist again and showed it to Grandma Wei: "Grandma Wei, look, does this look good on me?"

Mrs. Wei, who usually likes girls very much, just had a dark look in her eyes when she saw Cen Yuehua's delicate and innocent look, and did not show much love for her - after all, Xingxing told her family everything that happened when she and the old lady of Marquis Weibei went to the Marquis Jiangtai's mansion to propose marriage.

Mrs. Wei smiled faintly and said, "It's indeed good."

Cen Yuehua, however, had no idea and thought that Mrs. Wei just liked her very much.

Cen Yuehua sat down next to Grandma Wei affectionately, raised her little face and looked at Grandma Wei with admiration on her face, her eyes were moist and seemed to be shining with water: "My grandmother passed away a few years ago. When I saw you, I felt that you were as kind as my grandmother."

Mrs. Wei was a little embarrassed and didn't know how to respond to this young lady from the Marquis's Mansion.

Besides, the New Year is almost here, and it’s not quite appropriate to suddenly say that a living person looks like your deceased grandmother.

Mrs. Wei could only cough and turned to ask the maidservant beside her: "...I heard the kitchen say earlier that they wanted to make some butterfly cakes. Is it ready?"

Before the maid could answer, Cen Yuehua smiled in surprise and asked, "Grandma Wei, how did you know that I like to eat butterfly cakes?"

Mrs. Wei: “…”

The maid hesitated for a moment before saying, "Madam, the butterfly cakes are ready. Young lady is going to take them to the Seventh Young Master."

Before Grandma Wei could say anything, Cen Yuehua had already cried out "Oh my!" and said warmly, "Grandma Wei, don't be angry. Sister Yu is still young. She should eat what she deserves..."

Mrs. Wei looked at Cen Yuehua in disbelief. Her beloved daughter was eating a plate of snacks in her own home, and she was being called greedy?!

Anger filled Mrs. Wei's face, and she suddenly didn't want to give face to Cen Er anymore.

She asked coldly, "Second Miss Cen, you must be having a hard time at home, right?"

Cen Yuehua was just thinking about how to win the favor of Mrs. Wei, when she suddenly saw Mrs. Wei looking at her with an unclear expression and asked this question out of the blue. Cen Yuehua couldn't help but be stunned.

But she suddenly thought of something, and a pitiful expression immediately appeared on her face: "...How did Grandma Wei know? After all, my sister is the eldest sister, and it is normal for me to be more tolerant on weekdays..."

Mrs. Wei didn't want to listen to Cen Yuehua's words that were implicitly about the future eldest grandson's wife, so she interrupted directly: "What I mean is that Miss Cen must have a hard life at home, otherwise, why would she think that eating a plate of butterfly cakes is greedy? ... Is it your father and mother who don't give you snacks? Poor child, how about waiting a while and I'll ask the maid to pack some snacks for you to take with you?"

When Mrs. Wei said this, her tone was cold. Even someone as overconfident as Cen Yuehua could hear the unhappiness in Mrs. Wei's words. Her face instantly turned red, and she forced a smile and said, "No, that's not necessary."

After that, Old Lady Wei was impatient to have anything to do with this Second Miss Cen. She supported the maid's hand and stood up with a calm face: "I am old and a little sleepy, so I will not talk to Second Miss Cen anymore."

The maid stood in front of Cen Yuehua and made a "please" gesture: "Second Miss Cen, please come in."

Cen Yuehua could only stand up with a wronged look on her face.

Cen Yuehua was halfway along the corridor when she realized why Mrs. Wei suddenly became angry. It must be because of what she said about being greedy that made Mrs. Wei unhappy.

Thinking of this, Cen Yuehua became more annoyed.

Is she wrong?

After all, she is just a naughty girl from the country who doesn't know any manners!

Cen Yuehua was unwilling to leave the Zhenxi General's Mansion like this. She paused and asked the maid, "I saw several pavilions and towers in your mansion before. They are all very beautiful. Can I go and take a look?"

The maid was unwilling in her heart, but before she could say anything, Cen Yuehua deliberately said, "My sister is the future mistress of your family, so our two families are in-laws. It's not too much for me to ask you to take me for a walk in the garden, right?"

Since the marriage relationship was brought up, the maid dared not refuse and could only agree hesitantly.

"Then, I'll take you for a walk around the neighborhood." The maid said hesitantly.

Cen Yuehua raised her chin slightly: "Lead the way!"

This mansion had been carefully renovated by the Ministry of Works long before the Emperor gave it to Yu Yonghuai. In addition, after the Yu family moved in, they got used to Xingxing and allowed her to renovate the mansion according to her own preferences. The corridors and eaves are all carefully decorated.

Cen Yuehua was just looking around and almost bumped into Xu Ge'er who was playing and joking with Xingxing in the corridor.

Xu Ge'er just celebrated his birthday a few days ago, so he was only three years old. He was running and playing games with Xing Xing in the empty corridor, and didn't notice that someone suddenly appeared at the corner.

Xu Ge'er braked suddenly, but he was too young to stop the car. His two little hands landed on the hem of Cen Yuehua's skirt, and he knelt on the stone floor of the corridor.

Cen Yuehua was shocked!

Her face looked a little bad, and she pulled the hem of her skirt from Xu Ge'er's hands with heartache. She glanced at Xing Xing, who was following not far behind Xu Ge'er, with some annoyance, and the more she looked at her, the more unhappy she felt.

Cen Yuehua's face was gloomy, but her voice was still tender: "Miss Yu, you have to pay attention to the child's safety when you take care of the child."

The maid behind Xu Ge'er hurriedly helped Xu Ge'er up with a distressed look on her face, and glanced at Cen Yuehua with some displeasure.

Where did this come from?

If she hadn't come out suddenly, her Master Xu wouldn't have fallen!

But Cen Yuehua was a guest after all, so the maid didn't dare say anything and could only be angry in secret.

Xingxing came forward and first looked at Xu'er's injury. Seeing that Xu stood up without any problem, she asked him if his knee hurt. After getting the answer that it didn't hurt, Xingxing looked at Cen Yuehua: "...Second Miss Cen was shocked. I see that the dress on Second Miss Cen is made of Shujin material. I happen to have a few pieces in my warehouse. I will ask someone to go back and look for one and send it to your house as an apology."

Cen Yuehua just felt that Xingxing was insulting her!

Shu brocade is as precious as gold. She was also lucky that the Jiangtaihou Mansion got half a piece of it. She begged her mother for a long time before she made such a piece!

As a result, Yu Xingxing said that there were several more horses in the warehouse and wanted to give her one!
