Chapter 48: The Gift

That afternoon, people from the Lian family came to fetch Yueyao and her brother to return home.

Yueyao was somewhat surprised, "Could Grandmother have received the news and thus sent for us?" It shouldn't be. While it was certain that the news would spread, it couldn't possibly have spread this quickly.

Nanny Deng didn't think Old Madam had received the news so soon either, "It must be Old Madam missing Miss and Young Master Tingzheng, hence sending someone to get you."

Yueyao shook her head. It had only been a few days since their last meeting; it was unlikely she was missed to that extent. There must be another reason. However, Yueyao didn't voice her thoughts.

Ma Chengteng, thinking of the disorder within Ma's Mansion, decided it would be better for Yueyao to leave. He immediately ordered his people to pack up and prepare to send her back.
