Translator: Henyee TranslationsEditor: Henyee Translations

Auntie Zhang tutted impatiently. “No, Madam, wait a little longer. The milk isn’t ready yet.”

Yan Xi looked at the two cups of steaming milk on the tray. “Isn’t that milk?”

“Oh, that’s for Fourth Young Master and Miss Gu Ling.” Madam Zhang smiled and apologized insincerely, “I’m sorry, Madam.”

“They’re not awake yet.”

“Oh.”

Yan Xi was angry too. She picked up the tray and was about to walk out, but before she could take two steps, she was stopped by Auntie Zhang.

“Fourth Madam, I already said that this milk isn’t for you. Although you don’t live in the mansion, you still have to comply with the rules.”

“It’s only two cups of milk and you’re already talking about the rules. Why don’t you just say that you’re looking down on me.”

Auntie Zhang snorted and looked up, “Madam is thinking too much. These two cups of milk are prepared for Fourth Young Master and Miss Gu Ling, so you can’t take them.”

Yan Xi wanted to know if she would say such things if Gu Yi was standing here instead. However, before she could say anything, Auntie Zhang complained, “If Fourth Master was here, he definitely wouldn’t want these two cups of milk.”

Yan Xi was angry and smiled. Gu Shen was always treated coldly here, but the people here actually felt that it was only right. Gu Shen naturally would not bicker with them because Gu Shen was already used to this kind of life, but she was not.

However, Auntie Zhang thought that Yan Xi’s silence was a sign of concession. She glanced at her and said proudly, “Fourth Madam, please make way. I still have to send Old Master potato porridge.”

Potato? Yan Xi instantly looked solemn.

Old people did not have good stomachs, so they should eat less potatoes. Otherwise, it would cause inflation in the intestines. It seemed like Auntie Zhang did not remember the doctor’s advice.

Yan Xi did not say much and moved aside to watch Auntie Zhang serve the potato porridge.

What did it have to do with her?

Auntie Zhang had already left. Yan Xi picked up the two cups of milk and went out.

‘When she walked out of the dining room, she realized that most of the people had already come down. Gu Ling sat beside Old Master Gu, muttering something to him.

Gu Yi sat beside Gu Shen. Perhaps because she slept too late last night, she looked listless and was fiddling with the spoon.

“yan Xi, you’re here. Come and sit down,” Gu Ling spoke first with a smile, “You’re the last one of the crew!”

“Huh?” Gu Yi asked, “Isn’t Uncle not here?”

Old Master Gu said, “Your uncle fell last night. I wonder if it’s serious.”

“Of course he is fine!” Gu Ling was unhappy that the Old Master was distracted by something else. “It’s not like you don’t know Gu Sheng. Whenever he bruised himself, he would come asking for money from you. Since he’s not here yet, he should be fine. Don’t worry.”

Old Master Gu nodded and did not speak anymore.

After a while, Auntie Zhang sent another portion of bread to Old Master Gu.

“Auntie Zhang.” Old Master Gu suddenly made things difficult for her. “Who cleaned the kitchen yesterday?”

Auntie Zhang replied as sweat broke out on her forehead, “It’s me.”

“Remember to be careful when you clean it next time.” Old Master Gu’s tone was calm. “Check it carefully so that no one will fall again. Gu Sheng is still lying at the back. My heart aches just looking at him.”

Gu Ling’s expression changed and she subconsciously looked at Gu Shen. Luckily, everyone was looking at Auntie Zhang and no one noticed what he was doing.

‘When Auntie Zhang heard that Gu Sheng had fallen, she quickly explained herself. “This, Old Master, I check carefully every night. Other than me, no one else entered the kitchen.”

Gu Shen added, “Auntie Zhang is responsible for too many things every day. It’s not surprising that she forgot one or two places. Just be careful next time.”

“I…” Auntie Zhang was stunned. She was afraid that Old Master Gu would punish her, so she nodded in agreement.” I’ll be careful next time. ”

Old Master Gu nodded and gestured for Auntie Zhang to leave.

While he was feeling troubled, he casually took a few mouthfuls of porridge. However, after a while, he felt uncomfortable, as if something was pressing against his stomach, making it difficult for him to breathe.

Yan Xi looked at Old Master Gu’s expression and was the first to go up. “Grandpa, what’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?”

Old Master Gu opened his mouth and held his stomach with one hand and the crutch with the other. “Go… call the doctor..”
