Han Yifang carefully covered her mouth to prevent herself from making a sound. She ran out of the kitchen in a hurry and accidentally knocked down the vase beside her. The people who were discussing her in the kitchen just now heard her and came out. They were not surprised to meet her.
She thought that they would be embarrassed or even terrified. After all, she was one of the masters of this house. However, she never expected that after their shock, their expressions would be filled with disdain. They did not even look at her and turned around to return to the kitchen.
They looked down on her from the start. They did not care if she was angry because they knew that she did not even have a place in this family.
Heavens! She had actually fallen to the point where even the servants looked down on her... Han Yifang could no longer hold back her tears as they began to roll down her cheeks. She ran back to her room quickly. All she wanted to do now was hide under the blanket and cry.
When Du Zhenbang returned home, all he saw was Han Yifang's red and swollen eyes. He was too lazy to comfort her, so he only said a few words of reassurance before leaving. The people he sent out today still couldn't find Xiaoqing's whereabouts. He was frustrated and didn't have the energy to care about the emotions of a chess piece.
He closed the door and planned to sleep in the guest room for the night. He would talk about appeasing the chess pieces tomorrow.
The door opened and closed. Han Yifang did not get any better because of Du Zhenbang's perfunctory reply. Instead, her tears flowed even more violently. After an unknown period of time, she was tired from crying. Looking at the time, it was almost time for the nurse to leave. She collected her emotions and officially took over the job of taking care of Du Poisonous Shadow from tonight onwards.
The clock struck twelve and the room was eerily quiet. Thinking about his eyes, his eyebrows, and the way he had been trying to cope with her tears, Han Yifang tried her best to convince herself that he was just too tired. It was as if her heart would ache a little less and his actions would become easier to accept. However, the tears rolled twice in her eyes and eventually fell.
She didn't know if it was right or wrong to have come to this point, just like how she didn't know about Du Zhenbang's fluctuating feelings.
Lowering her head, she looked at the face that was somewhat similar to Du Zhenbang's. She felt aggrieved. In this strange embrace, she cried and slept for the entire night.
"Young Madam! Young Madam!" A tender voice interrupted Han Yifang's sleep. She opened her groggy eyes and saw a girl she had never seen before.
"You are…"
"I'm a servant here. Young Madam, you can call me A'Xia.”
Looking at Ah Xia's smiling face, Han Yifang suddenly felt that it was very glaring. She wiped her tears away in a panic. After yesterday, she finally knew that no one in this family would feel sorry for her tears. Even if someone accidentally bumped into her, they would only think that she was putting on an act. No one would really care about her tears and grievances. Why should she let others see her cry now? She would only make a fool of herself.
"What's the matter?" She quickly put away her sad emotions and went up to Xia.
"Old Master has been looking for Young Madam the entire morning. Please hurry over.”
"Grandpa?" Han Yifang couldn't help but shiver. Ever since she married into the Du family, Old Master Du had never given her a good look. Why was he looking for her now? For some reason, she felt uneasy.
"Where is Grandpa?" She got up and quickly tidied her clothes, not wanting to lose her composure in front of him.
"Old Master said to wait for Young Madam in the study.”Xia replied as she helped.
"Can I trouble you to take me there?" Her range of activity was limited to the living room and a few rooms. She did not dare to wander around other places as she was afraid that she would go to the wrong place and anger the old man.
She was the young madam of the Du family, but she didn't even know where Old Master's study was. Wasn't it very sad? Han Yifang bit her lower lip, not wanting her sadness to be too obvious.
In front of the study room, she saw two unfamiliar servants. They also swept their disdainful gazes over her. There was no need for further explanation as Han Yifang understood that these two people did not have any good intentions towards her. It turned out that in this family, her popularity was really unimaginably poor.
The whole world was probably laughing at her, but the worst thing was that she didn't even know what she did wrong. Was it wrong to climb up the social ladder, or was it wrong to fall in love?
Shaking her head, she flung Du Zhenbang's cold face away. She raised her hand and knocked on the door. What greeted her was probably another big storm, even if she really did not know what to do.
"Grandpa." She called out timidly," Is there anything you need from me?”
Old Master Du had been playing with his caged canary. When he heard Han Yifang's voice, he turned around. He did not expect his face to fall the moment he saw her.
"Do you have to dress like this at home?”Old Master Du's face was filled with anger as he looked at Han Yifang with disdain." You look like a prostitute who's earning money from her body, do you know that?" Say, if a guest suddenly came to the house and saw you like this, what would others think? I can't stop you from marrying into the Du family, but at least restrain yourself a little. Don't make yourself look like a bar girl, okay?”
Old Master Du's words were conservative. If it wasn't for the fact that he was an elder, he would have said something like,'You're shameless, but I'm shameless.'
Han Yifang stood there quietly as she listened to Grandpa Du's reprimand. She was powerless to refute. She also knew that it was inappropriate for her to dress like this, and she knew that it was annoying. However, when there were only such clothes in the cloakroom, she did not know how many choices she had.
"Are you listening to what I'm saying?”Looking at Han Yifang, who was still in a daze, Grandpa Du's anger grew even greater.
"I've only read you a few words, and you're already putting on a face that's about to cry. It's as if our family owes you a huge favor. Forget it! I can't be bothered to care about this or that. If you behave yourself in the future, I'll turn a blind eye.”At most, he would just pretend that she did not exist in the family.
Han Yifang finally heaved a sigh of relief and hurriedly nodded in agreement. Just as she thought that the torture was over and she could leave, Old Master Du suddenly changed the topic."However, just because I can turn a blind eye doesn't mean that others can.”
He picked up a newspaper from the table and threw it in front of her."Look! Look! What have you done! Look at what she wrote about you! To put it nicely, she was a sparrow that flew into a wealthy family. To put it bluntly, isn't it because you've made friends with our Yang family, but you don't know what's good for you and even went out to seduce our new driver? Are you still…shameless!# Cancel review All: wdd201302 Time:111420185:54PM
