Zhang Yan smiled slyly. âRight? I think so too.â
Chun Tao was happy from the bottom of her heart.
It had been a long time since her miss had been so lively and carefree.
âMiss Zhou is really amazing. She can always make Miss so happy.â
Zhang Lan smiled. âThatâs because she treats me with sincerity. In return, Iâll treat her with sincerity too.â
After saying that, she suddenly exclaimed in surprise. âAh, theyâre leaving. Come, letâs follow them.â
As she spoke, she pulled Chun Tao and followed. âMiss, are you trying to matchmake Miss Zhou and Young Master Wei?â
Chun Tao hurriedly caught up to her miss.
âThatâs right. Look at how compatible the two of them are. Itâs just that Young Master Wei is always in a daze. If I donât help create some opportunities for them, I donât know when he will succeed.â
Wei Chiyu, who was said to be in a daze, was bringing Zhou Xiaoli to the Lingyun Pavilion.
However, they did not go up the normal way.
He brought Zhou Xiaoli to the roof of the Lingyun Pavilion directly.
Zhou Xiaoli, who had just steadied herself on the roof, was still afraid. However, she forgot to be afraid the moment a firework exploded with a loud bang.
âWow, this is too beautiful!â
âYes, it looks good.â
It wasnât easy for Zhang Yan to catch up to them in the Lingyun Pavilion. When she saw where the two of them went, she felt terrible.
âHow am I supposed to get firsthand information on this?â
Chun Tao, who was standing at the side, held back her laughter. âMiss, there are so many people in the Lingyun Pavilion. Isnât where they are now, the perfect spot for them to cultivate their relationship?â
Zhang Yan nodded. âThatâs true, but I canât see it.â
Chun Tao suggested, âMiss, since weâre already here, do you want to take a look at the Lingyun Pavilion?â
Zhang Yan sighed. âLetâs go. Weâre already here.â
With that, the two of them walked into the Lingyun Pavilion.
The fireworks lit for the Lantern Festival lasted for an hour.
Although the Lantern Festival in ancient times did not have the beautiful lanterns of modern times, there was no pollution either. The people could set off fireworks to their heartsâ content.
After watching the fireworks, Zhou Xiaoli and Wei Chiyu went to guess the lantern riddles and won several lanterns.
In the end, she chose the koi lantern which she liked the most and returned to the Zhao residence happily.
As soon as she returned, Zhang Yan ran to her room to gossip.
Every sentence she said was about the two of them.
If Zhou Xiaoli could not tell that Zhang Yan was trying to matchmake her and Wei Chiyu, she would be a fool.
Zhou Xiaoli held her forehead and said helplessly, âSister Zhang, Iâm only 11.â
Zhang Yan didnât care at all. She nodded and said, âThatâs right. Wonât you reach the coming of age in two yearsâ time? Youâre not young anymore.â Zhou Xiaoli:
She did not want to talk about this topic anymore and immediately changed the topic.
âOh right, Sister Zhang, howâs Brother-in-lawâs condition now?â
At the mention of her husband, Zhang Yan immediately forgot to gossip about Zhou Xiaoli.
She lowered her voice and said, âSister Liâer, youâre really amazing. Your brother-in-law took your prescription and it worked in a few days!â
âHowever, I suppressed the news and told the public that your prescription is useless. It can only keep him alive.â
Zhou Xiaoli immediately nodded in agreement. âSister did the right thing!â
Itâs a complicated situation in the Zhao Residence now. It was best not to spread the news before her husband was completely cured, lest it cause trouble.
The reason why she came was to suggest to Zhang Yan to hide his condition from everyone else.
Zhang Yan pulled Zhou Xiaoli back and said in a guilty manner, âHowever, Sister Lit er, Iâll have to trouble you. If you stay in my house, you might be criticized. â
Zhou Xiaoli waved her hand dismissively. âDo you think I care about that?â
Zhang Yanâs face was filled with gratitude. âI know you donât care about it. I just feel apologetic to you.â
Zhou Xiaoli pretended to be angry. âAre we still friends? If you keep saying that, Iâm going to get angry.â
Zhang Yan immediately beamed with joy and grabbed Zhou Xiaoliâs hand. âAlright, alright, I wonât say anything else. I, Zhang Yan, swear that youâre my best friend in this life!â
As soon as the two sisters met, it was as if they had endless things to talk about. They chatted until late at night before reluctantly parting to sleep. The next day.
Zhou Xiaoli had just gotten out of bed, and as expected, she was mocked.
She had arrived last night and had gone to the street to look at the lanterns immediately. Therefore, Second Madam Zhao only found out that Zhou Xiaoli had arrived this morning.
Hence, she brought her maid over early in the morning.
âYo! Yesterday, Sister-in-law said that she was going to fetch a relative. I was wondering who it was. So itâs you!â
âYou havenât cured Big Brother of his illness, yet you still have the cheek to come. Why? Are you running out of food at home again and hence, come to my house to ask for money?â
Zhou Xiaoli, who was stretching her body, rolled her eyes at her.
This person must be very free for her to come to her early in the morning.
If it werenât for the Second Madam Zhao bossing her around, Zhou Xiaoli would have suspected that the former actually loved her deeply.
Since Zhou Xiaoli had ignored her, the Second Madam Zhao could not vent her anger and spoke even more harshly.
âWhat an uneducated country bumpkin! Canât you understand what Iâm saying?â
Zhou Xiaoli was immediately surprised. âAh, Second Madam Zhao, itâs you whoâs talking. I was wondering what was making such a big noise early in the morning?â
Second Madam Zhao was furious.
âHow dare you say that Iâm a thing? How uneducated!â
Zhou Xiaoli had an innocent look on her face. âWhat? Does the Second Madam
Zhao think Iâm wrong? Are you not a thing?â
Second Madam Zhao was so angry that her face turned pale. She stuttered but did not manage to form a full sentence for a long time. Since she was unable to scold her, she wanted to be physical instead.
At this moment, Zhang Yan, who was holding back her laughter, walked out.
âHey, Sister-in-law, what are you doing? This is my esteemed guest!â Second Madam Zhao looked disdainful.
âTsk, she hasnât even cured Big Brother of his illness yet. How can she be an esteemed guest?â
However, she still put down her hand and did not dare to hit Zhou Xiaoli.
âSister Li is my godsister and she is also Brother Anâs savior. If sheâs not considered as an esteemed guest, who is? It couldnât be your aunt who comes to the residence every day to freeload?â
Second Madam Zhao was like a cat whose tail had been stepped on. She immediately exploded.
âZhang Yan, thatâs my aunt. How is she not an esteemed guest?â
âOn the other hand, you said that she was your sonâs savior. Who knows if you said that on purpose to help your poor relatives?â
Zhang Yan couldnât be bothered with her and sneered. âYes, yes, yes. You can say whatever you want. Thatâs right. I advise you to go back and take a look. I just paid my respects to the old lady, but I heard from the Old Madam that she wants to invite your aunt out.â
Second Madam Zhao said, âWhat? You must have sprouted nonsense in front of the Old Madam!â
Zhang Yan glanced at her. âIâm not someone who likes to stir up trouble. I heard that your good aunt sold Old Madamâs favorite cat. Old Madam is absolutely angry now. Youâd better be careful.â
After saying that, she pulled Zhou Xiaoli and said with a smile, âItâs really uncomfortable to hear a dog barking so early in the morning. Letâs go and have breakfast. Weâll listen to the opera later. Old Madam has invited a troupe to the residence.â
With that, she left with Zhou Xiaoli. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Second Madam Zhao stomped her feet in anger and ran to the Old Madamâs courtyard in a panic..
