A Little Couple

On the way back to the manor, Gao Yuan was very silent. Qi Lin was used to his great uncle being quiet, so he did not feel that there was anything wrong. However, when he passed by the shop selling pastries, he called out to his great uncle twice, but his great uncle did not hear him. Only then did he feel a little resentful.

"Great Uncle, I'm going back to my room," Qi Lin said to Great Uncle after entering the main courtyard. Before Great Uncle could respond, he curled his lips. "Alright, you didn't hear me again."

Qi Lin left feeling stifled.

Gao Yuan pondered and went to the study room.

"Master." The butler walked in with two iron jars and said to Gao Yuan, "Shall I brew the lotus seed hearts you asked me to buy during the day for you now?"

Gao Yuan did not like tea leaves, but he liked the water made from lotus seeds.

"Brew a cup," Gao Yuan said.
