Joyful Motherhood in a Rural Family - C.269 - 267: Egg Collides with Stone

Chapter 269: Chapter 267: Egg Collides with Stone

That maid turned around, her face quickly showing a flattering expression, and slapped herself twice in a row.

“Yes! Yes! Prefecture Princess, it is Lan’er’s fault, Lan’er deserves to die! Slapping the mouth, slapping the mouth!”

The young girl looked up in the direction of Liu Sisi, only to meet a pair of calm and rippleless eyes, and was immediately slightly taken aback.

Liu Sisi slowly stood up from the ground, giving a slight bow, “I am truly sorry, Miss. I have rudely offended you. I hope you can forgive me for the sake of my young age, and not stoop to a child’s level.”

“Oh? Are you saying that I, the Prefecture Princess, should not stoop to a child’s level with your words just now?”

The young girl smiled lightly, turned around, and took two slow steps towards Liu Sisi.

She looked Liu Sisi up and down, and then nodded her head imperceptibly.

“Not humble, not arrogant, really unexpected! Even a common countryside woman from Macheng County has such a bold spirit. It seems that I have underestimated the people.”

“Miss, you’re being too serious. It is a mother’s nature to protect her child. YingEr made a mistake, and it is only right for me, her mother, to apologize on her behalf.”

Liu Sisi raised her head and calmly faced the young girl in front of her, but deep in her eyes, there was hidden contempt.

A servant’s attitude reflects their master’s! To have such a troublesome servant by her side, it seems that the master of this troublesome servant is no better!

“What a phrase – the mother’s nature to protect her child!”

The young girl seemed to think of something, her eyes suddenly darkened, and the glitter in her eyes dimmed a lot. But in the blink of an eye, she regained her calm.

“Fine, I accept your apology. Little sister, you do have a good mother!”

She wore a thin smile on her face, but YingEr was frightened and kept burrowing into Liu Sisi’s arms.

“Miss, it’s getting late. If we’re any later, the Young Master will become impatient.”

The maid named Lan’er gently reminded her.

“Right! Let’s go, elder brother Zong is waiting for us.”

The young girl’s voice sounded like a singing warbler and she moved gracefully towards the corner of the staircase.

All eyes were focused on her, and as her expressions changed, she drew the attention of countless people.

“Yes! Prefecture Princess!”

The maid Lan’er quickly bowed.

“These bumpkins have never seen the world! If you were in the capital city, you wouldn’t even kneel before the Prefecture Princess, but be directly beaten to death without anyone daring to say a word! You’re still jabbering here. It is only because our Prefecture Princess is magnanimous, otherwise you would suffer if it had been another Prefecture Princess of another household!”

Lan’er was obviously still unhappy, “Today, I will spare you for the sake of my master. If you fall into our hands again next time, don’t blame us for being rude! Humph! Get lost, bumpkin!” She left a string of words and hurriedly followed her master who was ahead.

“Wait! I say, Miss, do you think you can just leave like this?”

Liu Sisi suddenly called out.

The young girl, who had already stepped onto the staircase, slowly turned her head and looked towards Liu Sisi’s location.

The young girl raised one eyebrow.

“Were you just calling me?” Lan’er pointed at herself in surprise.

“Yes, I was calling you!”

Liu Sisi stepped forward with her head raised, looking at the pair of master and servant on the stairs, “Just now YingEr accidentally bumped into you, and I apologized on her behalf, which was only right. However, your maid pushed my four-year-old child to the ground, scaring her. Doesn’t she need to apologize to my child?” Protecting her calf is the nature of a mother, and at this moment, she stands up even knowing that she is a chicken egg trying to hit a stone.

“You want me to apologize to you? What do you think you are?” Lan’er was furious!

“So you admit you are something! I’m sorry I didn’t see that earlier.” Since she didn’t want to save face, I will indulge her.

Liu Sisi spoke lightly: “Miss Lan’er, if your Prefecture Princess were to be charged with the crime of letting her servant commit violence, you would not be able to escape death.”

“You!…” Lan’er was furious!

However, the young girl lightly coughed and deeply glanced at Liu Sisi: “Lan’er! Go and apologize.”

Lan’er’s anger had not yet been vented, so she gritted her teeth and glared at Liu Sisi, wishing she could eat her alive.

But the young girl kept staring at her, forcing her to reluctantly step forward and bow awkwardly to YingEr before hastily finishing.

“Hmph! Just you wait!”

As she got up, she whispered threateningly.

Liu Sisi gave a light smile!

A little maid who was so overbearing, indeed the house servants of a prince, were truly extraordinary!

It was only when the two disappeared up the stairs that everyone relaxed and began whispering to each other.

“YingEr, don’t cry, okay?”

Liu Sisi patted YingEr’s head, feeling particularly disgusted by such high-handed behavior.

“My goodness! What kind of people are these? The child just bumped into her, is it really such a big deal? They even wanted to beat and kill, that’s too much!”

Guihua couldn’t help but complain, taking YingEr into her arms: “Come to Auntie, let me see if you’re hurt.”

“Auntie, YingEr is not hurt, wuhu…”

YingEr buried her head in Guihua’s arms, shaking her head continuously and clutching her tightly.

“She should be fine, just a little scared.”

Zhang Peng nearby also leaned in.

“It’s nothing! Let’s choose some silver ornaments first and then leave.” Di Yelei’s eyebrows were tightly furrowed, and encountering such a thing was truly disappointing.

“Gentlemen, I’m really sorry. My shop is small, and I’m afraid we cannot keep you here any longer.” A man resembling a shopkeeper squeezed his way to the front of the group, bowing continuously.

Everyone was taken aback, they exchanged glances for a moment, and Di Yelei asked in a deep voice: “What do you mean by that, shopkeeper?”

The shopkeeper wore a bitter look: “You might not know, the lady just now is Prince Luo’s daughter. Prince Luo has made great contributions and is one of the few alien kings in our Zhao Country. His daughter is not someone I, a mere shopkeeper, can afford to offend…”

The shopkeeper wore a mournful face, continuously bowing and paying respects.

The group was at a loss for words.

“Why? They came to buy things, we also came to buy things! Why should we leave? Is there such a thing as pushing customers out?” Guihua obviously didn’t want to leave.

“Gentlemen! Gentlemen. How about this? There are several better silver shops nearby. As compensation for your loss, our small shop will give you a set of golden ornaments as an apology. This humble one thanks you!”

Liu Sisi glanced upstairs: “It’s not the shopkeeper’s fault. You don’t need to take risks for the sake of a few unrelated people. There’s always a place for people to stay. Let’s go! We’ll switch to another silver shop!”

After Liu Sisi finished speaking, she took Guihua’s hand and headed towards the main entrance.

The group gave a cold snort in unison and filed out.

The shopkeeper hurriedly followed, clearly not intending to stop until the group had left the main entrance. “Gentlemen! Gentlemen! Please be more understanding, this humble one is also trying to make a living for his family. It’s truly a last resort! These golden ornaments…” The waiter beside him was still holding a plate of golden ornaments.

“Keep them for the next person who makes trouble!”

Without looking back, everyone left the Silver Pavilion.
