Bab 94: Chapter 44: Uncle's Family Affairs (Part 2)

Nanny Deng actually regretted her words right after she said them. This matter was not something the young lady could involve herself in. The young lady was so young, she shouldn't have been exposed to such indelicate matters.

Yueyao thought for a moment and then instructed Hua Lei, "Go bring over the gift that my eldest cousin sent me." She wanted to see what Ma Peng had gifted her. A gift also reflected his attitude toward her. If it was filled with goodwill and kindness, she would be willing to lend a hand. But if it was a perfunctory gift, she would have to ponder it over. She did indeed seek an ally, but she must not end up with a burden instead of assistance.

Nanny Deng did not know why Yueyao suddenly changed her approach but asked Hua Lei to fetch the gift. Upon opening the box, there lay a jadeite stone carved into the shape of a seal. The jade was thoroughly translucent, about two fingers wide and as long as a middle finger.
