The old marchioness felt very proud and said quickly: "Lord Mei is here as a distinguished guest, how can you stand outside all the time."

"It's really rude and disrespectful. Please, Lord Mei to come inside." Marquis Yao also reacted, he hurriedly asked Lord Mei to come into the main hall and sit down.

Yao Banxia has been sitting beside the old madam in a well-behaved manner. She looked quiet and docile.

Mei Zichu, who was sitting next to Lord Mei, narrowed his eyes slightly as if inquiring about this obedient Banxia.

His brows were furrowed unconsciously. Is this woman still the same woman who bared her teeth and claws last night?

She is so sweet and well-behaved now, she is nothing like the woman who dared to yell at him and expose him last night!

Of course, Banxia noticed Mei Zichu's eyes wandering to her, and she really wanted to step forward and slap him directly.

However, in front of her grandmother and father, she must not change her image, so she sat quietly and obediently.

Yao Qingdai was different, her eyes were shining when she looked at Mei Zichu.

Fortunately, she dressed up specially today. This is the young county prince. If she can attract his attention, then she can become the wife of Young Lord Mei.

Thinking of this, she felt excited all over, as the most beautiful lady in the capital, she couldn't believe that there's a man who would not be tempted by her.

"Young Lord Mei, my brother bumped into the young lord yesterday, on behalf of her brother, Qingdai wants to apologize to you." Yao Qingdai walked slowly over and saluted to Mei Zichu.

Mei Zichu frowned slightly and glanced at Yao Qingdai who was blocking her view, looking a little impatient.

Lord Mei took a sip of tea, glancing at his way from the corner of his eye, and understood.

There were so many girls who want to climb high, so it’s not surprising that Marquis Yao’s daughter would do this.

As for Marquis Yao, he didn’t expect Yao Qingdai to behave like this in public, and he suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

Mei Zichu ignored Yao Qingdai and said directly: "You are blocking my view."

Yao Qingdai's face changed slightly. She did not expect that Young Lord Mei did not show any surprise when he saw her, but was in fact a little unhappy.

"Qingdai, Qingdai didn't do it on purpose, please forgive me." As she spoke, Yao Qingdai deliberately raised her face, revealing her watery, pitiful and beautiful eyes, so that Young Lord Mei could see clearly.

Mei Zichu was known to have a bad temper, and the more Qingdai was like this, the more disgusted Mei Zichu became.

At this time, he immediately said angrily: "You said you didn't do it on purpose, then why didn't you get out of the way quickly so that you wouldn't block my view, instead, you deliberately raised your head so high?"

Yao Qingdai immediately felt so embarrassed as her whole face reddened with shame.

Marquis Yao's expression now looked so ugly as he scolded: "Why don't you go back quickly? What are you doing there?"

Yao Qingdai had always been pampered and spoiled since she was born, so naturally she couldn't stand being so humiliated in public.

She immediately covered her face and ran out crying. Madam Jin looked distressed and anxious.

Yao Banxia's brows furrowed slightly, she remembered in her past life that Mei Zichu loved Qingdai to death.

Just the day before her wedding, she heard that Mei Zichu had asked the emperor for the entire Peach Blossom City for Yao Qingdai, just to build a huge palace for her.

However, why is Mei Zichu not as obsessed with Qingdai in this life as when he first met Qingdai in her previous life?

Yao Banxia was just thinking about it when she heard Lord Mei say: "Look at my son who is also spoiled. He isn't any different than your third son."

Marquis Yao replied politely: "Young Lord Mei is a bright and talented young man, how can my incompetent son be compared to him."

Lord Mei sighed, he wasn't sure whether this Marquis Yao was just being polite, but he knew very well what his son was like.

Grand Tutor Mei shook his head: "Marquis Yao, after all, your family has four sons and two daughters. There is always one who is rather different and unsatisfactory in a house full of children. Look at me, I only have one son and one daughter, but both still make me worry a lot."

Marquis Yao said politely: "Lord Grand Tutor worry too much. After all, the young prince and the princess are both talented and beautiful. With the eldest princess taking care of you and the emperor's favor, you will be rich and noble for the rest of your life. Why should you worry so much?"

Hearing her father's words, Banxia couldn't bear it and laugh lightly.

Lord Mei was instantly attracted by Banxia's laugh and asked: "Banxia, ​​do you have a different view from your father?"

Being suddenly called, Banxia was a little embarrassed and said in a low voice: "This little girl is stupid, Banxia dare not talking nonsense about Grand Tutor's family affairs.”

After hearing this, Grand Tutor Mei nodded with satisfaction.

However, he still insisted: "Banxia, Uncle Mei wants to hear your opinion right now. How about treating it as a test?"

Yao Banxia knew that as a test, no matter what Banxia said, she would probably wouldn't fall into trap.

Grand Tutor Mei has already said it frankly, so Banxia didn't hide her thoughts anymore.

She smiled lightly and said: "Uncle Mei, Banxia feels that although it is a good thing to be born rich, it won't be as stable without self-improvement. People cannot always have smooth-sailing journey in this life. Who can guarantee that the favor from the person above will last forever?"

Marquis Yao was really frightened when he heard his daughter's words, and he quickly scolded: "What are you talking about? What does little girl know?"

Grand Tutor Mei thought for a moment, and after hearing Marquis Yao's rebuke, he immediately said: "Marquis, you don't have to be like this. This little girl is right."

Yao Banxia bowed slightly towards Lord Mei, and then sat quietly again.

Marquis Yao quickly apologized and said with a smile: "This little girl has just grown hair and is not sensible. If she makes a mistake, please let me know, Lord Mei."

Lord Mei shook his head and said: "Marquis, what this girl said is right. How can one have a lifetime of enjoyment?" 

"If one day the favor is gone and the child fails to live up to one's expectations, no matter how much wealth the family has, the family will fall into ruin."

Marquis Yao said nothing more, feeling the same in his heart, didn't he also worry about his sons a lot?

The old marchioness patted Banxia's hand in relief, feeling very proud that her granddaughter was more than ten times better than the rumors outside.

Lord Mei exchanged a few more words with Marquis Yao before saying goodbye and left.

Just as he was about to leave, Mei Zichu passed by Banxia and lowered his voice: "You really can pretend well! Girl, this young lord will remember the account you did from last night."

Yao Banxia was speechless. He was obviously the one who was in the wrong, but he still insist to put the blame on her. This man must be sick!

After sending Grand Tutor Mei and his son off, Marquis Yao immediately issued an order.

"Come here, tie up the third young master and beat him hard."

Upon hearing this, Cangzhu jumped up and shouted: "Father, father, you can't hit me, Father, I know I was wrong, I know I was wrong."

Madam Jin immediately begged. : "My Lord, changzhu's mother has passed away early, he's so pitiful..."

"Shut up." Before Madam Jin could finish her words, Marquis Yao yelled at her.

Marquis Yao kept all Banxia's words in mind. If Cangzhu was not strictly disciplined now, he might really cause big trouble in the future.

Madam Jin was shocked for being yelled at like this. It was the first time that the marquis used such a scary attitude to yell at her.

"A loving mother often times creates a failure of a child. I'm talking about you, you..."

Madam Jin's eyes suddenly got red and she burst into tears, as if she had been greatly wronged. She wanted to continue to persuade but did not dare to.

Yao Banxia sneered in her heart, this has nothing to do with a loving mother. This is obviously a fake flattery, it's a harmful love and the most vicious way to ruin someone's life.

When Cangzhu saw that her mother who loved her so much was being yelled at by her father, he immediately became unhappy: "Father, don't yell at mother. If you have anything to say, just come at me."

Madam Jin also knelt beside Cangzhu, looking so heart-broken as she cried: "Master, if you want to hit me, just hit me. Wuwuwu..."
