Chapter 332 Girl, you can't be too kind.
Upon hearing this, Liu Zhentao's eyes lit up, but then dimmed again.
"I have no face to go back to the capital, let alone see my family."
“Your sister was ambushed by wolves on her way to the military camp last night. If our people hadn’t arrived in time, she would have been dead.”
Liu Zhentao looked full of regret. He really hadn't thought that far ahead; he just wanted to get his sister away, he never intended to hurt her...
"Liu Zhentao, how many more foolish things do you have to do before you realize that the Liu family has never abandoned you!"
Yuan Hongqu couldn't help but curse.
“If your sister had died last night because of your foolish actions, you would have no face to return to the Liu family! It's not too late now, and you've learned your lesson. Don't be so stupid again!”
Liu Zhentao has never been called stupid. At most, when he was young, others commented that he was an immature person.
Looking back now, that was probably a veiled way of saying he was an idiot!
Upon hearing Yuan Hongqu's words, the Nineteenth Sister wanted to defend Liu Zhentao, but found herself at a loss for words.
"Liu Zhentao, think it over carefully. I will bring Liu Qianrou to see you tonight."
Yuan Hongqu then looked at the nineteenth girl, "Although you are the daughter of the Second Prince, as long as you are willing, I will negotiate with the Second Prince on your behalf and let you study at the Girls' Academy."
This time, the nineteenth girl agreed and promised to think about it carefully.
Yuan Hongqu then stepped out of the tent to get some fresh air.
"Granny, I'm back!" Daiyu's cheerful voice came from afar.
Looking into the distance, Yuan Hongqu saw Daiyu dressed in riding attire with grassland characteristics, looking very dashing.
She held the reins in one hand and had the other hand behind her back, as if she were hiding something.
Upon reaching her, she nimbly jumped off the horse, and Xueyan quickly took the reins and led the horse aside to the groom.
Yuan Hongqu walked over, and Daiyu approached her, smiling as she extended her arm, which had been hidden behind her back.
"Granny, this is for you." A large bouquet of pink, purple, and red Gesang flowers, so big that Daiyu couldn't hide it.
Although Yuan Hongqu had already seen her hands behind her back and the Gesang flowers clearly visible behind them, she was still pleasantly surprised and quickly took the large bouquet of flowers, immediately realizing that it was quite heavy.
"My dear girl, it must have taken so much effort to gather such a large bouquet of flowers." Yuan Hongqu's eyes were full of smiles. "You're amazing!" Her praise never stopped.
Daiyu was very happy to see that Yuan Hongqu liked it so much.
“I knew Grandma would like it. We don’t have any flowers like this at home. I asked them for seeds, and we’ll plant a whole bunch when we get home.”
Zijuan brought up a small cloth bag and said with a smile.
"The girl asked for Gesang flower seeds, but people said that this flower is a wildflower and they have never collected seeds. It grows on its own every year when the season comes, so there is no need to save seeds. These were collected by a herder's family to feed their chickens."
"Thank you for thinking of me." Yuan Hongqu was genuinely touched.
Everyone says she was good to Daiyu, but Daiyu was also very good to her!
Daiyu remembered all of Daiyu's preferences, her little habits, and sometimes even the trivial things that Daiyu herself thought were insignificant.
Daiyu always manages to notice things that others don't, but that Yuan Hongqu herself cares about.
Daiyu smiled proudly, "I know that Granny loves to drink tea and read books among flowers like these. Granny doesn't like those flowers that are too strong and flamboyant, but places without flowers seem too desolate. When I saw these flowers at the horse race today, I knew you would like them."
Yuan Hongqu, holding flowers, unabashedly put her arm around Daiyu's shoulder.
"These flower seeds are enough to fill our entire village with cosmos flowers. When the time comes, we can plant them from the entrance of the village to the mountain, and also in front of and behind the houses of the villagers. It will definitely be very beautiful."
Daiyu imagined the scene of the estate being filled with Gesang flowers, and she longed for it very much.
“Mr. Yuan, I’m here too. I helped the young lady pick them. My sword has never done anything like this since it was invented. It used to cut off people’s heads by the handful.” Lan Su also came forward. It was clear that she had already made arrangements with Daiyu to go on the southern tour together. With her worries put aside, she started talking nonsense to scare people as usual.
Upon hearing this, Daiyu's beautiful brows furrowed slightly, and she said disapprovingly,
"Lan Susu! We agreed not to talk about heads anymore, it's creepy."
Lan Su clapped her hands and laughed, "I just wanted to scare you. Who told you to scare me today..."
"Don't say it!" Daiyu stamped her foot, desperately trying to wink at Lan Su.
Yuan Hongqu looked at Lan Su questioningly.
“Miss, I must tell Mr. Yuan about this. I can’t control you anymore, but he certainly can.” Lan Su said seriously, completely ignoring Daiyu’s guilty look.
Daiyu then looked at the people who were with her. The group looked at each other, clearly unaware of what was going on.
“Mr. Yuan, the young lady could have won first place in the horse race today, but she heard a child crying on the way and changed her route to rescue the child.” Lan Su accompanied Daiyu the whole time, including during the horse race, she stayed by Daiyu’s side.
Yuan Hongqu looked at Daiyu, who lowered her head, but then raised it again.
"Granny, that was a baby, left in the bushes. If I hadn't found her and rescued her in time, she would surely have been eaten by wolves that night..."
“Mr. Yuan, we just walked over, and the young lady was about to pick up the child. I noticed there were people around, so I stopped her,” Lan Su interrupted Daiyu. “But the young lady is too kind. When she saw blood on the baby, she didn’t care about anything else and wanted to check if the baby was injured…”
"Luckily she wasn't hurt. I wonder where the blood came from." Daiyu said with some joy, "Susu, if she had really been injured and I hadn't taken care of her, I would have regretted it for the rest of my life."
“Girl, you can’t be too kind.” Lan Su said anxiously, “We had just picked up the baby when four people emerged from the bushes, saying that we had hurt their child and that they wanted compensation.”
"You two have been scammed." Yuan Hongqu found it somewhat amusing, never expecting to encounter such a thing on the grassland.
Lan Su shook her head. "Our girl is so brave. She was like Miss Liu possessed. She lashed out with her whip and knocked down three people."
Yuan Hongqu looked at Daiyu in disbelief, and Daiyu nodded shyly.
“You did nothing wrong, but you need to be more careful next time. You and Lan Su should learn more about this,” Yuan Hongqu had to say to Daiyu.
Daiyu nodded again, but Lansu shook her head.
“Mr. Yuan, I can’t teach her, you’d better train her yourself. Later, in order to win first place in the horse race, this amazing girl of ours insisted on showing off her skills on horseback, with one foot still hanging on the stirrup and her whole body off the horse’s back. I almost thought she had suddenly fallen off the horse because of some kind of illness. It scared me to death!”
