I married an exasperating eunuch Chapter 55 part 3

Chapter 55 Courteous (3)

Thinking that there would be less trouble in the future, Chen Hui’s mood improved a lot. No matter what the purpose is, if Li Youde kept Chen household alive, they should stay far away from Li Youde. If they bump into each other again, wasn’t it seeking death? Even if it was her, she had to work very hard to make Li Youde treat her so well. They who have enmity with Li Youde should save their energy.

Just as Chen Hui walked into the yard, it suddenly rained. She looked up at the sky and felt that the heaven was really spirit dampening.

In the evening, Li Clan’s Cloth Shop sent an invitation from Commandery Princess Shuning, saying that she is invited to go to the Tanmen Temple at South Fragrant Mountain in three days to seek fate in marriage. Chen Hui ignored the purpose of seeking fate in marriage. It was okay to go to the temple and have fun. Forget about seeking fate for marriage. If Li Youde got to know about that, she might get killed.

Chen Hui had only wandered in the capital before and have never been outside of the capital. Therefore, she looked forward to this outing, but before accepting, she has to speak to Li Youde, lest he thought that she was going to escape. Originally, she was a bit doubtful that she would be able to keep up with the three-day appointment, but when Ah Da came to give her fruit the next day, he said that lord would come back in the evening and to let her prepare.

Chen Hui was quite confused when she heard this. What preparations should she do? Serve him?

…Wait, wait, not right!

Seeing Ah Da’s upright face, Chen Hui also didn’t inquire morw and thought it through in by herself.

Soon, it became evening. Li Youde returned from the palace. After entering Li residence, Xiao Wu who was waiting at the gatehouse said that someone from the Chen household has come to see Chen Hui.

Li Youde frowned, “Did Lady Chen see them?”

Xiao Wu replied immediately, “At first, Lady Chen didn’t want to see her, but her mother kept waiting for her and refused to leave, so, she went to see her.”

“What did they talk about?”

Xiao Wu said, “Lady Chen didn’t let this little one listen.”

All the emotions have disappeared from Li Youde’s face, leaving only an expressionless face.

“Alright, I got it,” Li Youde walked in. Less than ten steps later, he asked, “Ah Da, tell me, how does Lady Chen see her Chen household now?”

Ah Da hesitated and said, “This little one doesn’t know…but this little one thinks that blood is thicker than water after all. Lady Chen…she shouldn’t be able to let her maiden home go.”

“This little one thinks that may not necessarily be the case,” Ah Er said, “Chen household has been too heartless with Lady Chen. Lady Chen presumably doesn’t even think about Chen household anymore. Lord is Lady Chen’s backing now. Lady Chen has long put her heart on lord.”

Ah Da looked at Ah Er in surprise. Wasn’t it just speaking their opinion? What did the extra words that he said mean?

Ah Er had a sincere face and he didn’t even spare Ah Da a glance.

The corners of Li Youde’s mouth raised. He patted Ah Er on the shoulder and laughed, “It is still Ah Er who knows how to talk. Ah Da, learn well from him.”

“Yes, lord!” Ah Da hurriedly responded.

Only now did Ah Er gave Ah Da a triumphant look.

Li Youde walked forward for a while. Seeing that he was almost at Chrysanthemum Yard, he suddenly stopped and said, “Ah Da, go tell Lord Ji to leak some benefits to Chen Pingzhi from the gap between the fingers.”

Lord Ji is currently the Inner Chief Eunuch. He was originally under Li Youde’s command. Naturally, he still stood on Li Youde’s side now.

“Yes, lord!” Before Ah Da left, he also glanced once triumphantly at Ah Er. He had said that blood is thicker than water! For Lady Chen, lord wouldn’t treat Chen household too badly.

Li Youde walked into Chrysanthemum Yard and returned to the main room. Then, he asked Ah Er to call Chen Hui over.

Chen Hui went anxiously to the main room. She didn’t find Li Youde in the outer room and knew that he was inside. She was even more anxious.

She asked on the outside, “Lord, why are you looking for this Lady Chen?”

“Come in,” Li Youde’s answer was simple and straightforward.

Chen Hui had to go in. She saw that he had just changed clothes. Seeing her come in, he said, “Come here and help me clean my face.”

“Yes, lord,” Chen Hui was already familiar with this. She hurriedly walked over and began to remove his makeup.

Li Youde closed his eyes and enjoyed Chen Hui’s soft hands sweeping like feathers on his face. It felt itchy and comfortable.

After a while, he suddenly opened his eyes and asked, “Did your mother come to look for you yesterday?”

Chen Hui knew that this matter couldn’t be kept from Li Youde and she also didn’t want to keep it from him. So, she said, “Yes…but this Lady Chen has already sent her away.”

“Why did she come to look for you?” Li Youde asked.

Chen Hui said, “It is a trivial matter. This Lady Chen doesn’t want to spoil lord’s mood.”

Li Youde cast a glance at Chen hui and said nothing, but when Chen Hui was cleaning the towel, he suddenly said, “I already let Ah Da go talk to Lord Ji. He will look after Chen household’s business.” His words seemed a bit secretive. Even he himself didn’t notice the meaning of asking for credit.

Chen Hui was taken aback and quickly said, “Lord…there is no need. Chen household has wronged you. You really don’t have to…”

Li Youde humped and said, “Why are you so courteous with me? I have never seen you being so courteous usually.”

Chen Hui felt that she had nowhere to address her grievances. She was not courteous! Who was courteous to him?!
