Miss Du took the ribbon and exclaid, “Embroidery from the Jin Family, and full embroidery from the Yu Family?”
“Exactly!” Madam Ru said, “I heard that the second young madam of the Jie Family is the sole heir of the Yu Family’s full embroidery.
This collar ribbon ans a lot to , so I had no choice but to swallow my pride and co to you, in hopes that the second young madam could help nd it.”
The Yu Family’s full embroidery was also the old trade Miss Du intended to resu; naturally, she wouldn’t refuse.
And given Madam Ru’s status and her humble approach, she couldn’t afford to refuse.
Miss Du said, “It is my good fortune to be able to nd the collar ribbon for Madam.
Please wait a mont, Madam, I will have it fixed for you shortly.”
“You have my thanks.”
Hearing that Miss Du could nd her collar ribbon, Madam Ru was in high spirits.
All the discomfort she felt since arriving at the Jie Family’s residence vanished completely thanks to Miss Du’s magnanimity and grace.
“Cuiya, go to my room and bring the tools.”
“Yes, Miss.”
Upon hearing the maid address Miss Du as “Miss” instead of “second young madam”, Madam Ru looked at her with newfound surprise.
This family is indeed very interesting.
Concubine Du waited outside the flower hall, nearly tearing the embroidered handkerchief in her hands to shreds with anxiety.
She wanted to enter, but the formidable old lady accompanying Madam Ru guarded the door, allowing only Miss Du to enter while she was barred from doing so.
Cuiya dodged Concubine Du and ran back to fetch the nding tools before joining them in the flower hall.
Soon, the second young master of the Jie Family, who had gone out early in the morning to Jisheng Hall to get dicine, also returned.
The sight of the opulent carriage at the gate startled him, and upon entering, the sight of Concubine Du’s vile expression shocked him even more.
In his eyes, Concubine Du had always been a gentle and amiable person.
How could she wear such an expression?
“Aqing, what happened?”
The second young master had already instructed soone to prepare dicine for Miss Du, and seeing Concubine Du like this made him feel both alienated and frightened.
What on earth happened to make her look like this?
Concubine Du jumped at the sound of the voice and quickly turned around, only to see the second young master of the Jie Family in a green robe.
The second young master of the Jie Family was a handso man with prominent features, matching well with Xintong, as she had heard from Madam Du before.
Back then, she was young and only knew that she liked the second brother from the Jie Family, so she always believed that she was the only one who matched the second young master.
Madam Du said he paired well with Miss Du because she was her daughter, that’s all.
But now, the fleeting image of the calm figure that had just entered her mind suddenly made Madam Du’s words seem reasonable.
This thought sent a chill down her spine.
She quickly shook her head, casting away the discomfort, and then said to the second young master of the Jie Family, “My lord, Madam Ru has co, she wanted to see my sister only and disdained for being just a concubine, so I… had no choice but to wait outside.”
From a distance, the old ladies guarding outside for Madam Ru felt displeased upon hearing these words.
Indeed, Madam Ru did not like her and had not let her in, but when had Madam Ru ever said she despised her for being a concubine?
The words of Concubine Du reached the ears of the second young master of the Jie Family, and he instantly beca infuriated.
No wonder his Aqing was in such a state.
He had intended to remark that Madam Ru was also a concubine and therefore without the right to judge, but seeing the hostile expressions of the won in front of the flower hall, he swallowed his words.
He patted Concubine Du’s shoulder and whispered, “Co, I’ll take you inside.”
