Chapter 963: Chapter 963 Old Rascal
Qingyuo Pavilion.
Xuexue was deep in sleep when suddenly, she was jolted awake with a start.
“Why wake up so early?” She opened her eyes and glanced at Xiao Taohong floating in mid-air. This little ghost had woken her up by freezing her again. It was just too awful. Wasn’t there a nicer way to wake her up? Did she have to use such a brutal thod?
Xiao Taohong had a special ability: whenever she used her powers, within a three-ter radius, it was all hailstones, capable of freezing soone into an ice lolly.
“You still feel like sleeping? The vampires from Mo Family Village are coming after us.”
“Who?”
Clearly, Xuexue was still groggy. She closed her eyes again and mumbled inattentively, wrapping the blanket around her even tighter with her delicate hands.
“Your grandmother.”
“Oh! With so many skeletons appearing in the garden, she must be annoyed to death, she has no ti to bother with !” Xuexue thought Xiao Taohong was referring to the Old Madam of the General’s Mansion.
“Goodness gracious! Miss, please co to your senses. I’m not talking about the Old Madam of the General’s Mansion. I an that old shrew from Mo Family Village.” Xiao Taohong, floating mid-air, was quite helpless. Apparently, she was casting pearls before swine; after all this talking, her mistress hadn’t heard a thing!
“What?”
Xuexue suddenly opened her eyes wide and looked up at Xiao Taohong, asking, “What did you say?”
“I said the whole family of that old shrew from Mo Family Village has co here, causing trouble right at the entrance of the General’s Mansion.”
Now, Xuexue was fully awake. She sat up on the bed and said in astonishnt, “How did they get here?”
“How would I know?”
No wonder Xuexue was astonished; this incident had never occurred in her past life.
At this mont, soft footsteps were heard from outside the door, followed by Zi Xia’s voice: “Miss, Miss, please wake up.”
“What’s wrong?”
“The guard outside reported that family mbers of the Miss have co to the doorstep.”
Xuexue and Xiao Taohong exchanged glances.
Zi Xia continued: “Miss, do you want the maid to go send them away?”
The Miss’s foster parents were settled in other residences in the Capital, so how could there be other family mbers? Zi Xia was convinced these people must be swindlers, trying to extort the Miss!
“That’s fine, go ahead.”
Truth be told, in both her past and present life, Xuexue had an extre aversion to Old Lady Mo and her family; she really didn’t want to see them again.
Even for Mo Xiaoqiang, she had no affection; she was only giving him a chance to reform himself for Chuner’s sake. What happened after would depend on his own fate.
“Miss, continue to sleep, the maid will take care of sending them away.”
“Mhm!”
Then, Zi Xia’s footsteps gradually faded away.
Xiao Taohong gave her a sidelong glance: “Master, you’re too naive.”
“What now?”
“They’ve traveled all this way to the Capital. Do you think they’ll leave content without even seeing you, not to ntion getting any silver?”
Xuexue also knew that they were troubleso. Isn’t it a matter of avoiding confrontation just for the mont?
“Master, let’s not deceive ourselves. When it’s ti to face sothing, we must face it.” Xiao Taohong bluntly pierced through Xuexue’s thoughts.
“You little ghost, you’re not cute at all. I’m ignoring you; I’m going back to sleep.” Xuexue wrapped the blanket around herself again, about to close her eyes and continue sleeping, when suddenly, as if she had thought of sothing, she opened her eyes again and gave Xiao Taohong a warning glance, her tone full of threat: “Little ghost, sister is warning you, the next ti you wake up, don’t use freezing. Otherwise, you’re in for it.”
Damn it, it was nice and comfy sleeping, when suddenly, it was like falling into an ice cellar, that feeling was just too uncomfortable.
