The Story of a Spoiled Daughter Raising a Husband

"But if you want her to be like me, able to do things without caring about what others think, I think that's impossible. We should try our best to change some appropriate aspects."

Tong Qian listened to what wasn't exactly advice, but secretly made a mental note of it. In the midst of the silence, she looked up and saw that Yun had tidied herself up. After seeing how she looked after tidying herself up, she realized that she no longer looked as pale as before.

Looking at it, he secretly sighed in his heart, "Clothes really do make the man." Seeing Yun girl walk over, he casually said, "Since you haven't had breakfast yet, you can be sure that Kui'er is in the same situation. Let's call Kui'er to go out and eat together."

He had just said that when he shook his head with a slightly self-deprecating smile. "Although I don't know whether this should be considered breakfast or lunch, at least I can see what she's thinking during this process, which will save me the time of deliberately finding opportunities to sit down and talk about these things."

Hearing Tong Qian's plan, Yun frowned slightly. Although she understood Tong Qian's thoughts, she didn't know what had gone wrong that made her so anxious today. She also knew that it wasn't appropriate for her to ask too many questions in this situation, but the worry in her heart couldn't be dispelled. Thinking this, she just moved her lips but ultimately didn't say anything.

Tong Qian looked at Yun Yatou's slightly puzzled expression, and felt a little gratified by the hesitation in her eyes. Yun Yatou had ultimately considered these things from her perspective, so she explained, "It's not that I'm in a hurry, nor is there anything special happening right now."

"But I always feel that the imperial examination is just around the corner, and no matter how well we plan for the future, there will always be too many changes in the end. Rather than waiting and not seeing the result, it is better for us to make all the preparations in advance."

"So this makes me try to resolve these things as early as possible. If something can't be resolved in the short term, I'll start preparing for it first, so that it might come in handy someday."

"As for Kui'er, I'm thinking that if she can accept this arrangement, then I am indeed thinking of taking her back earlier in the day. If it were just the two of us, we wouldn't need to worry too much, but after all, there is also Master Yuan here today besides her."

“If we get back too late, you know what those people in the village are like. I’m afraid they’ll start gossiping again. If they were only talking about me, I wouldn’t care so much. But the Yuan father and son are teachers, and Kui’er is very sensitive. If she hears those nonsense words, who knows what might happen.”

Listening to this, Yun Yatou understood her plan and nodded, then turned and went to Kui Er's room to check on her. She saw that Kui Er had just finished tidying up and was sitting in front of the mirror, seemingly lost in thought.

Seeing her absent-minded look, I hesitated for a moment, but thinking of Tong Qian's plan, I said, "Kui'er, what's wrong? Are you thinking about those things again? Or are you not very comfortable staying here? If you need anything else, be sure to tell me and I will help you get it."

When Kui'er heard Yun'er's sudden voice, she was momentarily taken aback. What had she been doing just now that she hadn't heard Yun'er come in? Thinking this, she frowned, trying to recall what Yun'er had just said to her, but her mind was blank, and she couldn't remember anything.

Seeing her like this, Yun Yatou walked in and explained, "I knocked on the door, but I didn't hear you speak. I thought maybe you didn't hear me, so I just pushed the door open and came in. If I disturbed you in any way, I hope you don't mind. After all, I got used to it when I was with Miss Tong before, so I didn't think too much about it."

Hearing her say that, Kui'er shook her head and said, "How could that be? I was just distracted and didn't hear you. It's not your fault. If you need to find me in the future, just come in. I don't have that many things to worry about. You don't need to be so careful about my feelings."

Listening to this, Yun said, "Miss Tong came over today, saying she wanted to have something to eat with us. She was worried that you weren't ready yet, so she thought I would come and tell you first. But I see that you're all ready, so come with me. Don't keep Miss Tong waiting."

As Kui'er listened, she also had some doubts. Although Miss Tong was indeed exceptionally good, both in her own eyes and in what others said, she always felt a little timid when facing her. She always felt that Miss Tong could see through many things at a glance, leaving no place for people to escape.

Didn't she say yesterday that she was busy and wouldn't be able to come over for a while? But why did she suddenly appear so early today? Doesn't she have anything else to do every day? Why is she always here, and always hanging around in this teahouse?

Although, to be precise, she did provide the script for the play and participated in many of the rehearsals, wouldn't it be a waste of her time to be here every day? But even with these thoughts in mind, she still got up and followed Yun to the room where Yun was staying.

As soon as I entered, I saw Tong Qian sitting there, holding a teacup in her hand, drinking tea by herself. She looked so gentle and refined, so serene, that once you saw her, you couldn't take your eyes off her.
