All Hail Cousin Brother

260 Splashing Tea on Her Face

Seeing that this was making things worse, Yu Jianjia’s face turned pale.

Although she was explaining for her, her face looked as if he had been wronged. Yu Youyao found his pretense funny.

She was the eldest daughter of a widow, but she still dared to show off in front of her. She was also very stupid. Cao Yingxue smiled faintly. “I heard that Eldest Miss Yu lost her mother since she was young, so they hired a nanny from the palace to teach her the rules. This girl was naturally raised differently. She has a bad taste in her bones…”

Yu Youyao knocked on the teacup and slowly stood up. Her slender figure was so gentle that the other young misses present couldn’t help but look over in awe.

!!

Eldest Miss Yu’s bearing was really good!

“Seventh Miss Cao, are you saying that I’m ill-mannered?” Yu Youyao looked down at the teacup in her hand. The top-grade Biluochun was curled up like a conch. It was green and fragrant.

Yes, it was a pity about this good cup of tea.

Cao Yingxue was stunned by the question. She looked at Yu Youyao, who was dressed in green and pure clothes, standing in front of her. Her slender figure was delicate and beautiful, and she was not inferior to her cousin, Lu Mingyao.

However, she had clearly heard Yu Jianjia mention it by chance.

Yu Youyao used to be obese. It was only after Nanny Xu entered the residence that she had changed completely in just a month. It was as if she had become a different person.

All of this was thanks to Nanny Xu!

Nanny Xu was the Empress Dowager’s most powerful aunt. She was also the nanny she had taken a fancy to, but Yu Youyao had snatched her away.

Cao Yingxue suddenly felt a surge of anger in her heart. She laughed sarcastically. “The books say that the eldest daughter of a widow has no manners. Who else is there but you? You still have the cheek to rebuke. Are you afraid that others won’t know that you’re ill-mannered?”

As soon as these words were spoken, a few young misses couldn’t help but burst out laughing.

“This Eldest Miss Yu really doesn’t know what’s good for her. Seventh Miss Cao kindly invited her to play with her, but she actually doesn’t appreciate it. She’s really uneducated… and rude.” The word “uneducated” circled her mouth. She still felt that it was inappropriate, so she changed it, but the meaning was similar.

“Seventh Miss Cao is a polite and kind person. She can’t stand seeing Eldest Miss Yu leave her weak sister alone. Isn’t it rude of her to joke around with other young misses?”

“This is the first time I’ve seen someone who doesn’t give the host face. The eldest daughter of a widow has no manners. Saying this is already being nice.”

In the octagonal pavilion, more than ten young misses were sitting on round stools. They surrounded Cao Yingxue, Lu Mingyao, and Yu Jianjia. Some were holding their handkerchiefs to cover their mouths and laughing lightly. Some were holding fans to cover half of their faces and laughing. Some were simply not hiding it and were openly looking at Yu Youyao with disdain and mockery.

The scene was too beautiful.

However, the words that came out of the young misses’ mouths were filled with mockery. Behind the handkerchiefs and incense fans, they hid their disdainful faces.

Yu Jianjia looked worried. She opened her mouth slightly, and she parted her lips, making her look tender and bright. “Seventh Sister, my eldest sister didn’t mean to offend you. Please don’t take it to heart…”

Since she had pleaded for Yu Youyao, the young misses around her inevitably felt that she was gentle and kind.

However, Yu Youyao could vaguely see the corners of Yu Jianjia’s lips curl up.

Yu Jianjia had bitten her lip today. There was a hint of paleness and weakness on her pale pink lips, but it did not make her look sickly. Instead, it only made her look weak.

Cao Yingxue raised her head proudly and sneered at Yu Youyao. “Heh, since Jia Jia pleaded for you, I won’t hold it against you. After all, you’re a guest. No one will think that I’m deliberately making things difficult for you. They’ll think that the Marquis of Changxing’s Residence doesn’t treat our guests well…”

Yu Youyao’s lips curved slightly, and her pomegranate-red lips were as bright as fire. “Seventh Miss Cao is indeed magnanimous.”

Cao Yingxue raised her chin. “Of course, I…”

“I hope Seventh Miss Cao can continue to be so magnanimous!” Yu Youyao’s fair fingers were beautiful against the pink color of the teacup.

Cao Yingxue’s heart constricted, but before she could react—

Yu Youyao raised her hand and filled a cup with warm tea, immediately splashing it on Cao Yingxue’s face.

Her blatant behavior stunned all the young misses present. They gasped and exclaimed—

Not everyone could match up to the status of the Marquis of Changxing’s Residence. Which young miss who could be invited to the Flower Festival was not a young miss of a prestigious family?

When have they ever seen someone splash tea on someone’s face at the slightest disagreement?

Even Cao Yingxue was stunned.

Her face that had delicate makeup was covered in tea leaves. The tea flowed down her wet face and dripped from her chin, drenching the expensive clothes she had carefully chosen.

Yu Jianjia was shocked and said in a panic, “Big Sister, what, what are you doing? You’re a guest. How, how…” contemporary romance

She bit her lip, but she didn’t know what else to say.

Lu Mingyao had already stood up and stared at Yu Youyao coldly. “Eldest Miss Yu, Yingxue has already forgiven you and doesn’t care about the mistakes you’ve made. You actually repaid kindness with ingratitude and splashed tea on her face. You’re too much.”

She was dressed in bright orange and was a little taller than Yu Youyao. When she stood in front of Yu Youyao, she looked condescending and domineering.

Yu Youyao glanced at Yu Jianjia indifferently, and a smile appeared on her lips. “My third sister is right. I accepted an invitation from the Marquis of Changxing’s Residence to participate in the Flower Festival. No matter what, I’m a guest. As the host, Seventh Miss Cao, you have to treat me well. Only by doing your best as a host can you show the hospitality of the Marquis of Changxing’s Residence. I wonder how I offended Seventh Miss Cao? On the other hand, Seventh Miss Cao was rude and forced me to do something I didn’t want to do. She was rude at first, then she said vicious words. After offending me, how did I become the one in the wrong?”

Yu Jianjia’s heart skipped a beat and she opened her mouth.

What she meant was that Yu Youyao was a guest. How could she do such a rude thing as splashing tea on someone? However, Yu Youyao had deliberately misinterpreted her words. Instead, she had used the hospitality of the Marquis of Changxing’s Residence to say that Seventh Miss Cao was rude and offensive.

Lu Mingyao was speechless.

He looked at Yu Youyao standing there. Her posture was calm and beautiful, but her thin and straight back was like the green parasol tree. It was straight on the inside and the outside. Even though it was full of leaves, it did not hide its scorching beauty. There was a tenacity that could not be shaken.

She was really elegant.

She pinched her handkerchief and retorted, “Eldest Miss Yu splashed tea on someone’s face just because of a disagreement. This isn’t something a well-mannered young miss from a wealthy family would do.”
