Chapter 1042: The Girl

She believed that Qu Hua was a very nice girl from Li Village, except that she was not a good match for Shanhu.

She was very arrogant and because of this, she was not a well-mannered person. Also, Qu Hua’s family looked down at Shanhu too.

That was something that she was not happy about.

Shanhu was a good boy, except that he was born in the poor village of Li Village, which was a very restricting place for him.

However, it seemed different at this moment.

This girl was nice in every aspect. This girl might give Shanhu a boost, so that she could show to the others in the village as well as Qu Hua’s family that Shanhu deserved someone better, rather than to be belittled by those people.

Shanhu’s grandma was in a very good mood, and since she was in a good mood, she was getting better.

Gu Chaoyan was done checking her up too. She stood up and said calmly, “Nothing serious. She is just an elderly woman who was startled by what happened here. She needs to take some medicine and move about too. Keep the window open for fresh air. It won’t be too cold at this time of the year.”

“…”

“I prepared some medicine before we came here. Those should work for her.”

…

“…”

“You can make the medicien for your grandma. Sword One isn’t good in the kitchen, so she is not a good help.” Gu Chaoyan was about to leave after she finished the arrangement.

When Shanhu’s grandma heard what she said, she added, “It is not good for a girl to be bad in the kitchen… she should spend some time learning.”

Gu Chaoyan was about to leave, but then she frowned deeply when she heard the words.

Sword One was born as a hidden guard, and she was responsible for taking care of her.

Qing was not here, because it wasn’t convenient to bring her. That was why she added things to make sure that everything would go well.

She had not expected that Shanhu’s grandma would say words like this.

Shanhu said next to them, “Grandma, what are you talking about? Sword One is Lady Chaoyan’s maid and Lady Chaoyan can make good arrangements for her!”

Then she said to Gu Chaoyan apologetically, “I am just an elderly woman who loves babbling, please don’t take it to heart.”

Although displeased, Gu Chaoyan could not possibly split hairs with an elderly woman like this.

She nodded and left the room.

Grandma looked at Shanhu and was about to say that this n.o.ble-looking lady only had one maid, who should take care of Shanhu in the future as well. So she needed to learn to be useful, but she said nothing further, since Shanhu interrupted her.

She could just add that afterwards.

When Gu Chaoyan was gone, Shanhu heard that she was going out for a walk and realized that she would not run into danger, since Prime Minister Chu’s people were here. So he left her alone.

Shanhu helped to make the medicine for his grandma.

The moment Shanhu left…

The aunts arranged by the Village Chief arrived as well.

They thought that there would be a lady from the capital, yet she left the moment they arrived. She had a few followers with her, so they did not stop her.

So they rushed into Shanhu’s home.

Seeing Shanhu’s grandma in bed, some gossiping people asked. “Shanhu’s grandma, who was that girl checking you up?”

Shanhu’s grandma showed a look of pride. “Oh that girl…”
