Chapter 69: Embarrassed

Translator:Atlas StudiosEditor:Atlas Studios

Yu Youyao glanced at Yu Jianjia indifferently and said, Grandmother felt that I wasn't following the rules at home and often disturbed Ms. Ye's lessons. There was no improvement in my studies at home, so she asked Nanny Xu to take care of me. This way, I can learn the rules well and put in more effort

Her words, which seemed to be both true and false, made everyone believe her. There seemed to be a hint of vitality on Yu Jianjia's pale face, revealing her delicate beauty.

At this moment, Yu Qingning, who had been kicked out of school by Ms. Ye in the morning, entered with her maidservant.

Her expression was unnatural, as if she was trying her best to pretend that nothing had happened. However, her slightly stiff expression made her face twist.

When Yu Qingning returned to school, everyone had understanding expressions on their faces. They weren't surprised at all. As long as Yu Qingning wasn't too stupid, she should understand that if she was really chased out of school, not only would it ruin her reputation, but it would also cause her grandmother to hate her and be displeased with her father.

No one in the room spoke up to provoke Yu Qingning.

Seeing that everyone was ignoring her, Yu Qingning became even angrier and glared at Yu Youyao.

However, Yu Youyao was holding a cup of tea and talking to Yu Shuangbai in a low voice. She did not even look at her.

Yu Qingning's punch landed on cotton. She felt stifled and uncomfortable. She sat on the table angrily and asked the maidservant to serve her tea and food.

After ten minutes, Yu Youyao and the others returned to class.

In this class, Ms. Ye was teaching the first of the four books, University. A few young mistresses were kneeling in their seats and listening attentively. Only Yu Qingning was standing outside the door, feeling tormented.

Upon hearing her mother's words, she returned to her studies and went to apologize to Ms. Ye, but was stopped by Old Madam Su.

She asked Jin Ju to give Ms. Ye the hibiscus screen that her mother had prepared. Old Madam Su had confiscated it.

When it was time for class, Yu Qingning wanted to enter the room to listen, but Old Madam Su still stopped her.

Yu Qingning stood outside the door and waited for a while before she couldn't help but feel embarrassed. Just as she was about to leave, Jin Ju hurriedly stopped her and said, Young Lady, if you leave now, you won't have the chance to go home and learn anymore. At that time, you'll really become a person who doesn't know how to respect your teachers. Think about what Concubine said.

Yu Qingning stomped her feet in grievance and anger. But, if Ms. Ye doesn't forgive me, why should I stay here? I won't be laughed at by others, but I've never been so embarrassed before.

Jin Ju recalled that before coming to school, Concubine He had called her over and specially reminded her, Perhaps it's because Ms. Ye wants to see your sincerity, so she's deliberately testing you. Since you're here to apologize, you naturally have to be more sincere and show respect for your teacher.

Yu Qingning reluctantly retracted her foot. But I'm just going to stand outside?

Jin Ju said, Ms. Ye has always been strict. Other than Third Miss, no one in the residence has never been punished. You can't take it too seriously. At this point, she glanced into the room and quietly leaned close to Yu Qingning. She lowered her voice and said, I was in the side room earlier and accidentally saw that Eldest Miss's left hand was also swollen. I believe she must have been disciplined by a ruler.

Yu Qingning's eyes widened and her breathing quickened. Really?

I can't be mistaken. Jin Ju looked certain.

The anger in Yu Qingning's heart finally dissipated a little. Now that she was standing outside the classroom, she could finally tolerate it. I was wondering why Yu Youyao didn't go to school for a month, and why Ms. Ye didn't chase her out. It turns out that she was slapped and punished. No wonder Yu Youyao came so early today. Hmph!

Seeing that Miss did not say that she was leaving, Jin Ju finally heaved a sigh of relief.

The class lasted for about an hour. Yu Qingning was not a patient person to begin with, and she had been pampered all this time. After standing for a while, she felt her feet hurt and her legs go numb, so her expression became uglier and uglier.

In the past, when she saw that Yu Youyao was often punished to stand, she couldn't help but mock her. However, when it was her turn, she realized that it was really torturous. Even her breathing had slowed down. Every time she breathed, it was torture for her. She even felt that the maidservants who occasionally passed by were all secretly laughing at her.

Ms. Ye, who was lecturing, took a sip of tea and glanced out of the window. She frowned but did not say anything.

Finally, the class ended. Yu Qingning quickly went to look for Ms. Ye, but was once again blocked by Old Madam Su. Ms. Ye has instructed that Fourth Miss can't stand properly. It's better for her to continue standing outside.

At this moment, Yu Qingning finally understood that Ms. Ye was a man of her word. However, she had been angered and had been wronged. She had no choice but to admit that it was her fault for not respecting her teacher. Instantly, her face turned red with anger, but she couldn't flare up on the spot. She was afraid that she would anger Ms. Ye further and really alarm her grandmother and father. In this case, she wouldn't have a good time either.

Unwilling to accept this, Yu Qingning led Jin Ju outside, only to see Yu Youyao packing up her desk. Thinking of how everything she had suffered today was all because of Yu Youyao, she suddenly felt a sense of disgust. She sneered, Big Sister, why are you only using one hand to pack your things? You should have been taught a lesson by Mentor this morning!

Yu Youyao pretended as if nothing had happened, but she insisted on letting everyone know.

As soon as she said this, Yu Jianjia's hand, which was tidying up the pen holder, paused. Her gaze involuntarily drifted to Yu Youyao's left hand. Even Yu Shuangbai and the others looked at Yu Youyao curiously.

She was being punished fair and square, just like Yu Qingning, who was disobedient and embarrassed by contradicting her teacher. Yu Youyao did not want to hide it from her, so she simply stretched out her hand generously, revealing her slightly swollen palm. Well, I haven't been to school for more than a month. I've been punished so that I can learn a lesson.

Her frank attitude made Yu Jianjia feel bored, so she turned to continue packing her desk. Yu Lianyu and the others, who wanted to laugh, also looked away awkwardly.

Yu Shuangbai clicked her tongue. Ms. Ye is really fair and impartial. If you refuse to be disciplined, you'll be kicked out of the school.

These words were clearly meant to mock Yu Qingning. Yu Qingning, who was originally feeling a little smug, immediately felt embarrassed.

Immediately, she realized that she had been kicked out of the school by her teacher. As a comparison, Yu Youyao's punishment of being hit ten times by a ruler seemed to make Yu Youyao seem even more respectful and obedient. It also made her seem even more unbearable.

The shameless one had become her.

She shouldn't have made a fuss about Yu Youyao being punished by Mentor.

Yu Qingning regretted it so much that she no longer had the face to stay. She hurriedly led Jin Ju outside. Thinking that Ms. Ye had yet to forgive her, she cried in grievance. Ms. Ye, what do you mean by this? You punished me to stand outside for a lesson, but you don't even forgive me. How long do I have to stand outside?

She wanted to just shake her head and leave.
