Chapter 90: A Butler Arrives at the Grand Chancellor’s Residence
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
On the 15th day of the second month, the people from the Grand Chancellor’s Residence finally arrived.
Early in the morning, Liu Shimei had just changed into his work clothes and was about to put on makeup when Liang Yi’s voice suddenly came from outside, “Younger Sister, someone from the Grand Chancellor’s Residence has arrived!”
Liu Shimei had no choice but to stop putting on makeup and walked out to ask, “Who’s here?”
Liang Yi’s handsome young face revealed a hint of mockery as she said, “The person who came claimed to be the butler of the Grand Chancellor’s Residence, and was even carried by four people, sitting on a sedan chair!”
“I knew it.” Liu Shimei sneered and turned around to enter the house. “Ninth Brother, come in. We don’t have to care.”
“How do you know you don’t have to care?” Liang Yi was amused.
He followed her into the house.
Liu Shimei sat in front of the dressing table and continued to put on makeup. “Who is outside now? Is Grandpa here? Uncle? Aunt?”
“None of them are here.” Liang Yi leaned against a pillar at the side and crossed her arms as she watched her daub something on her face. “How can a butler be welcomed by masters like us?”
Liu Shimei smiled as she put on her makeup. “That’s why I said we don’t have to care! Butler versus butler, is Old Liang of our Liang Residence someone to be trifled with?”
Liang Yi could not help but smile when Old Liang was mentioned. “Old Liang has been with Grandpa for most of his life. He and Grandpa are so connected!”
The old butler was also in his fifties. He was a servant who had followed Liang Wei since he was young. He took the surname Liang from his master. In the past, he had followed Liang Wei to fight in the south and north. Later, when the world was peaceful, Liang Wei was idle at home. Old Liang could not stay idle and volunteered to take on the position of butler.
How could Old Liang not know that Liang Wei felt sorry for his granddaughter?
Liu Fuyun had sent a butler to fetch the treasured daughter of the Liang family like she was a sack of potatoes. Dream on!
A butler who had fought all over the world. Just his aura alone was enough to scare people. How could the butler of the Grand Chancellor’s Residence compete with him?
Liu Shimei smiled faintly. “I’m guessing that if the butler doesn’t pick me up today, Madam Zhang will most likely come tomorrow.”
“If Madam Zhang comes, let Sixth Aunt go see her. It’s already too kind of you to let Sixth Aunt see her!” Liang Yi smiled evilly.
One’s birth determined one’s fate. Madam Zhang had once been a concubine. Even if she was made official, her dark history could not be erased.
However, she was already in her thirties, while their sixth aunt was only in her twenties.
Letting Sixth Madam Liang receive them was another way of slapping their faces.
Liu Shimei finished her makeup and did not take the fact that the Grand Chancellor’s Residence had come to pick her up seriously. She said to Liang Yi, “Zhong Lang has left. We’ll keep the house for now. We might need it in the future. Let Gangzi guard it.”
“Deal.” Liang Yi stared at her makeup and clicked his tongue in wonder. “Sister, your disguise technique is amazing. With a little fiddling, your original 10-point beauty is gone, I can only give you five points at most!”
“It means that I’m half ugly now!” Liu Shimei raised an eyebrow.
They thought that this was a disguise technique, but they did not know that makeup was considered to be very common in modern times!
Liang Yi did not dare to admit that she was ugly. He smiled and replied, “My sister has beautiful features. Even if you blacken yourself and make yourself inconspicuous, you can’t deny the fact that you’re a beauty!”
Indeed.
Liu Shimei’s make-up was not as exaggerated as a disguise. It only covered up all the outstanding features of her face, such as her bright white skin, her high nose bridge, and her rosy lips. All of them had been processed by light and shadow, making her look inconspicuous.
This way, no one would stare at her at first glance.
However, after looking at her for a long time, he could still see that her facial features were very good!
“I’m going to work.” Liu Shimei said goodbye to Liang Yi..
