The useless second daughter of the Hua family

"Dear guests, please come this way. These are the specialties of our restaurant. I specially prepared them for you to taste."

Early in the morning, as soon as Hua Miaomiao and her companions came downstairs, the innkeeper came up to them with a flattering face.

His eyes were glued to the Grand Master from the beginning, and he felt very satisfied. The leader was a noble man just by looking at his clothes and demeanor. Then he brought two girls with him, one of whom was ordinary-looking and the other mentally handicapped. After all, the Yun family ran the largest inn in Nanlin, and his daughter Lin Jun was also considered a top beauty in the city. How could she not be better than those two girls? If he could get married...

Hua Miaomiao looked at his calculating face and slammed the teacup heavily on the table in dissatisfaction, splashing tea and wetting her hands.

"Are you burned?" the Imperial Master asked with concern.

Ask, ask, ask, don't you know how to look at it yourself? Hua Miaomiao complained in her heart, but she only said coldly: "The tea is cold."

The boss looked embarrassed and quickly explained: "Because I don't know when you will get up, my daughter specially asked for the hot dishes to be heated in the kitchen."

Hua Miaomiao curled her lips. Should she emphasize "my daughter specially" in every sentence? Do you have a daughter? Was this boss a brothel owner in his previous life?

The boss casually pulled a waiter over and said, "Go tell the lady that the guests have woken up and the dishes can be served."

Judging from his expression, he doesn't want to leave yet.

Hua Miaomiao held her chin with one hand and used chopsticks to fiddle with the food that the imperial teacher had prepared for her. She had no appetite at all.

Soon, the boss' daughter Lin Jun led a few people to bring up the dishes. There were chickens and fish, quite a sumptuous meal.

"Boss, you really know how to run a business. This meal must cost a lot of money."

Hua Miaomiao gave the father and daughter a sarcastic look.

Lin Jun was thin-skinned and his face had already turned red. Boss Lin was angry but couldn't show it.

But after all, he had been in the business world for so many years, and his skills had improved a lot. He put on a smile and explained to everyone: "Don't worry, girls, this meal is on me, and I'm making friends with you all."

"Now that you say that, I can eat it with peace of mind." Hua Miaomiao gave a naive smile.

"It is my blessing that the girl can show me her favor."

The boss was relieved now, as he had thought that she had some relationship with the noble young man. Now it seemed that the girl was very happy and did not know how to hide it at all, and she was not a scheming person.

Unexpectedly, Hua Miaomiao changed her tone, put her arms around the Imperial Master's arm, leaned over and rested her chin on his shoulder, looking up at him shyly.

"After all, the master's money is also my money, I will feel bad about it."

The Imperial Master was startled by her sudden action, and the chopsticks in his hand fell to the table with a snap.

"Master, look at you, how come you can't even hold a pair of chopsticks?" Hua Miaomiao pouted and complained in a delicate voice.

"I..." I was just scared, the national teacher thought, although the soft and beautiful woman is nice, I am not mentally prepared.

"It's okay. I'll go get a new pair for you right away." Lin Jun thought he was being considerate and helping the Imperial Master out of the situation.

"Forget it. I can't eat it anyway. You can use mine."

"Okay, okay..." The Imperial Master took the chopsticks that Hua Miaomiao stuffed into his hand, but he didn't dare to really use them. He looked at her uncertainly.

Hua Miaomiao's behavior today was very abnormal. It should be said that she had been acting abnormal since last night. Was it because my confession was too shocking to her?

The Lin family father and daughter stood in front of the table, watching the two people exchanging glances, as if no one was around. For a moment, they didn't know whether to leave or stay, and they were more like two servants serving dinner.

The other two people watching the show at the table laughed secretly, unable to hold it back. Yu Yao kindly asked them to leave.

"Please ask Miss Lin to send some food to our room three as well. Just knock on the door and leave it at the door. Someone will come out to get it."

The tiger-eating beast could only hide in a basket covered with silk cloth from the moment it entered the crowd. After all, a girl holding a tiger was too conspicuous to walk through the streets. It could only move around in the house, and Xiaoyu was happy to accompany it.

As soon as the two left, Hua Miaomiao's expression changed immediately and she snatched back her chopsticks.

The Imperial Master looked at his empty hands and the back of Hua Miaomiao's head and smiled helplessly.

Yu Yao nudged Wang Chao with his elbow and whispered to him, "Don't you think Hua Miaomiao's temper is becoming more and more awkward?"

"It's because she's favored by someone." Wang Chao glanced at the Imperial Master.

Yu Yao nodded in agreement.

"They don't know who is the better one. They are so jealous and sour, but no one realizes it."

"What are you two talking about? Who is jealous?" Hua Miaomiao became angry and slammed the table.

The eyes of the people around them were drawn to them. The Lin family father and daughter didn't know why Hua Miaomiao was angry, but they were happy to see it happen.

"Go ahead and make a fuss. The more she makes a fuss, the more educated and reasonable you will appear. Daughter, you must seize this rare opportunity."

"I understand, Father."

The Imperial Master was so smart that he immediately understood that Hua Miaomiao was jealous after hearing the two's advice. It turned out that she was not completely indifferent to him. However, he still glared at the two of them as a warning, and stood up to comfort Hua Miaomiao.

"Don't be angry, they are talking about me. I am a big fool and don't know how to avoid suspicion."

Hua Miaomiao became even angrier after hearing this, and turned to scold him, "That's you. No matter how much you try to avoid the world, you can't be so ignorant of the most basic social etiquette. The purpose of that family is so obvious, it's almost written on their faces, why are you still trying to pick a fight with them?"

"But, he didn't say a word to that family since he came down." Wang Chao weakly spoke up for the national teacher.

"I wasn't talking to you!" Hua Miaomiao gave Wang Chao a displeased look.

Listening to the whispers around her, she calmed down and realized that she was indeed being unreasonable.

"I...I don't want to eat anymore." She said that and ran upstairs.

The Imperial Master sighed helplessly and said to the two people beside him: "Don't bully her."

Wang Chao widened his eyes, pointed at himself in disbelief, and then pointed at Yu Yao.

"We two bullied her? Sir, you can't be so confused about right and wrong. You can't spoil her without any principles. Hua Miaomiao has been lawless these days, and we can't indulge her any more."

"You all think that I dote on her?" The Imperial Master looked puzzled.

The two of them looked at each other with determination, "Yes, it's like asking for the stars but not the moon."

"Really? Pretty good."

Yu Yao looked at Chao and exchanged glances, saying that it was too unbearable to watch.

Hua Miaomiao came to Xiaoyu's room and looked at her stroking the big cat with an innocent look on her face, and couldn't help but sigh.

"You have sighed no less than ten times since you entered the room. Is there something wrong?" the tiger-eating beast asked in impatience.

"You don't understand it."

"It's just the jealousy of women."

Hua Miaomiao was stunned when she heard this, "Why do you all think I'm jealous? I don't like him."

"Ah?" The tiger-eating beast seemed to have heard a joke, but seeing Hua Miaomiao's bewildered expression, he understood that this guy really didn't realize it, and he couldn't help but feel a little sympathetic to the national master.

It changed its mind and thought that it would be much less fun if it woke her up. The tiger-eating beast, who was keen on watching the show, chose to remain silent.

"Forget it, just keep going and don't bore me too much."

Hua Miaomiao was completely confused by what it said. She wanted to ask a few more questions when she heard a knock on the door. It must be someone delivering food.

She signaled the tiger-eater to hide and waited for a while before going over to open the door.

Through the light and shadow, a person could be vaguely seen sneaking outside the door. Hua Miaomiao walked over quietly, opened the door, and a slender body rolled in through the door.

Lin Jun lay on the ground for a long time before he stood up, rubbing his elbow, tears welling up in the corners of his eyes. It seemed that the fall was quite painful.

"Miss Lin seems to be in a good mood." Hua Miaomiao folded her arms and said teasingly.

Lin Jun's face flushed red. She regretted it now. Why was she curious about what was in the house and was caught red-handed? She wished she could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

"Don't you plan to say something?" Hua Miaomiao had no intention of standing with her in punishment. She had gotten her lesson anyway.

"If you're okay, I'll close the door."

"You don't live with that young man?" Lin Jun accidentally said what he was thinking.

Hua Miaomiao was stunned at first, then raised the corner of her mouth and sneered.

"What does our business have to do with you?"

"I……"

"Please!" Hua Miaomiao pointed outside the door and rudely ordered them to leave.
