A Request

 秀姑姑仍然借着上茶进来了一趟,看到她们各自坐着说话,神情自然,才放心地退了出去.

Aunt Xiu took the opportunity to check of Grand Elder Yuan Xi when she came to serve tea. After seeing both of them chatting peacefully, she then took her to leave at ease. 

 待她离开,元昔太上长老调侃自己:"老啦,连见个小辈,都让人不放心了."

As soon as Aunt Xiu left, Grand Elder Wan yu laughed and shook her head. "I'm so old that people can't even be at ease when I'm just meeting a junior." 

 陆明舒淡淡笑着,没有接话.她并不是那种讨长辈喜欢的晚辈,不会说话,不会奉承,索性也就不去讨好了.

Lu Mingshu smiled thinly. She's not the type of junior that a senior would like, she doesn't know how to continue a conversation or even say nice things. So as time passed, she does not bother anyway. 

 饮了口侍女特意调配的药汤,元昔太上长老慢悠悠地问:"当年天门之争,老身曾经告诫过你,至刚易折,强极则辱,你是否心中不服气?"
