438 Gentle and Considerate, as a Proper Lady Should Be
Should I tell Mother that my brother and I already ate them? Theyâre delicious and sweet!
He felt he could memorize books more quickly after eating them. He could remember it after reading it once. Could his motherâs lotus seeds have other uses?
âAhem!â An Jiuyue coughed lightly.
She could not possibly say that she was unsure if the lotus seeds were poisonous, right?
âI want to keep the lotus seeds and plant them next year, so you canât eat them,â she said seriously.
Qian Jiyun was surprised.
He had heard that lotus seeds could be planted, but most people planted lotus roots, right?
Few people would use lotus seeds as seeds, right?
He knew An Jiuyue had planted lotus roots and water chestnuts and raised fish and prawns in her space. Were An Jiuyueâs lotus seeds inedible but useful?
âSo youâre planting more next year.â Qian Yizheng nodded in understanding.
In that case, he and his younger brother would not pick them in the future. They would let the lotus seeds grow and become seeds next year.
Gong Cheng rolled his eyes.
People from the countryside are indeed from the countryside! How can she quibble with the children over such a small thing? What a joke!
However, he had no idea how lotus roots grew. He only knew they were lotus seeds and that they were edible. He was the Gong familyâs eldest young master; it would be strange if he knew.
Of course, Yu Yanâer had no idea too. Hence, she only listened to An Jiuyue and her sonsâ conversation.
âŠ
An hour laterâŠ
Many people were still around, and there were a few lotus boats in the pond.
âJiuyue, letâs go. Letâs board the boat.â
Qian Jiyunâs boat was also in the pond. He led An Jiuyue out of the tea stall, drawing everyoneâs envious looks. Gong Cheng trailed close behind.
Yu Yanâer immediately approached Gong Cheng and said gently, âCousin, we havenât bought our lotus lanterns yet. Wait here for a moment. Iâll buy two lotus lanterns. Iâll be quick.â
With that, she walked towards the stall nearest to them.
âYanâer, hurry!â Gong Cheng shouted as he watched her leave. He turned around and looked at Qian Jiyun proudly.
âSecond Brother, look at Yanâer. Sheâs gentle and considerate, as a proper lady should be. Unlike⊠Sigh, as the dignified Prince Zhan Yun, you can have any woman, but you just have toâŠâ
He targeted An Jiuyue again.
They had sat at the tea stall for quite some time, but An Jiuyue had not even spoken to him.
Itâs fine if she doesnât talk to me, but she said nothing, despite knowing Iâm angry with Qian Jiyun. Is that right? Is that what a woman should do?
How can someone who doesnât know how to read the room be worthy of being by my brotherâs side?
Yu Yanâer is not bad. I wanted to put in a good word for her just now, but Second Brother ignored her. He probably didnât want to embarrass An Jiuyue.
I canât stand women like her. Second Brother gave her face, but did she do the same for others?
âSigh.â Qian Jiyun exhaled heavily.
If it hadnât been for the fact that there were so many people here and it was not convenient to attack him directly, he would have slapped this blind fellow to the ground!
âGuards!â he shouted to the side.
âMaster, what can I do for you?â
A shadow guard in black immediately walked over and asked Qian Jiyun respectfully.
