Chapter 962: Chapter 816, Secret eting Scandal_2 Chapter 962: Chapter 816, Secret eting Scandal_2 In mid-February, the expansion list of the Southern Naval Forces was announced.
Seeing the list, naturally, so people were happy and so were dismayed.
Four Seasons Manor.
Initially, when Xiao Yeyang and his two older brothers went to the Northern Frontier, Daohua knew of the soldiers’ urgent need for anti-inflammatory dicine, so she deliberately cultivated a group of dical apprentices.
Later, Doctor Ge followed Xiao Yeyang and others back from the Northern Frontier, and Daohua sent him to teach these apprentices. When Gu Jian had free ti, he would also guide them.
Now, after two years of study, they were almost proficient at dealing with common ailnts like headaches, fevers, and dressing wounds.
This ti, as Yan Wenkai was going to the Southern Naval Forces, neither the Yan Family nor Xiao Yeyang could provide much help, so Daohua thought of selecting a few of these dical apprentices to accompany them as military dics.
Daohua was busy choosing candidates when Wang Manman ca to report, “Miss, Miss Kang and Fifth Miss have arrived.”
Daohua knew that the flower viewing parties at Tangyu Mountain had been frequent during this period, so she was not surprised by their arrival. Dismissing the apprentices, she said, “Please, invite them in.”
Before long, Daohua saw Kang Naixin and Wu Xirong coming arm in arm.
Daohua welcod them into the room with a smile and warmly offered them tea and fruit.
After exchanging pleasantries, Daohua noticed Kang Naixin hesitantly looking at her, assuming she needed help, Daohua smiled and asked, “Miss Kang, is there sothing you need?”
Kang Naixin appeared hesitant and awkward, pausing before saying, “My lady, Xinran and I heard sothing that we thought we should tell you.”
Daohua’s smiling façade slightly dropped, “What exactly is it?”
Kang Naixin hesitated, “It’s about Miss Yile of the Yan Family.”
Daohua’s smile vanished, and looking at the expressions on Kang Naixin and Wu Xirong’s faces, she instinctively felt Yan Yile had caused so trouble, “Yile? What happened to her?”
Kang Naixin glanced at Wu Xirong.
Wu Xirong, more straightforward than Kang Naixin, directly said, “Yesterday, Earl Residence hosted a flower viewing banquet. Your sister-in-law took her three sisters there, and among the male family mbers who attended was the Feng Family’s second son.”
“Your fourth sister seed… quite familiar with this Mr. Feng Second; no one knows how they ended up alone together, and then… they were seen.”
Daohua, stunned for a few seconds, managed a strained smile, “Miss Wu, these matters concern my younger sister’s reputation. Such things shouldn’t be spoken lightly.”
Kang Naixin replied, “We’re not speaking lightly. Among those who attended the banquet at Earl Residence were close friends of ours, and they witnessed it firsthand.”
Seeing Daohua’s expression darken, she added, “Don’t worry too much, Earl Residence promptly suppressed the matter and it hasn’t spread. Xinran and I just felt that, as friends, we should co and tell you, otherwise, we wouldn’t speak of it externally.”
Internally, Daohua thought if the matter had truly been suppressed, how would Kang Naixin and Wu Xirong know about it? But outwardly, she thanked them, “Thank you both for telling about this.”
Knowing Daohua was not in a mood to entertain, Kang Naixin and Wu Xirong took the initiative to take their leave.
After seeing them off, Daohua went to speak with Gu Jian, then took a carriage back to the city.
…
anwhile, at Earl Zhaode’s Residence.
Han Xinran, facing Han Xinman with anger, exclaid, “Eldest sister, what have I done to offend you that you would harm this way?”
Han Xinman countered, “How have I hard you? Younger sister, you hurriedly called back ho, surely you’re not doing this just to slander in front of our mother?”
Han Xinran glared resentfully at Han Xinman, “We both know about the roundabouts in the won’s quarters. Han Xinman, answer . How could Yile find her way to your manor, much less the remote rockery in the backyard, without soone leading her?”
“And another thing! Please tell , why was our second cousin there as well? Don’t tell all this was just a coincidence!”
Han Xinman scoffed, “How would I know about that? If you want to know what happened, you should ask your sister-in-law, not .”
Seeing Han Xinman dismiss her concerns, Han Xinran grew even more upset, her voice suddenly rising, “Han Xinman, don’t be too outrageous!”
Madam Han, seeing her daughters becoming increasingly agitated, had to step in to stop them, “Enough, both of you hold back a little.” Looking at Han Xinran, she added, “Can’t you speak kindly? After all, you two are sisters born of the sa mother.”
