Chapter 911: Chapter 783, Drive People Away_2
"Slap!"
Before Daohua could retort to the Third Prince, he got struck by a fan from Prince Ping.
Prince Ping glared sideways at the Third Prince, "Yeyang, your skin is getting thicker each day, isn’t it? You still expect daily deliveries? Why don’t you aim for the sky next?"
Then he turned to the Crown Prince and the others.
"Listen well everyone, the goods of Four Seasons Manor are for the young lady to sell for money. Don’t even think about coming here to freeload. If you want something, go buy it at the store yourself."
The Third Prince wore a look of defiance, "Uncle, it’s just some fruits and vegetables. We wouldn’t eat much. You’re being... you’re being too miserly."
Prince Ping glared, "I am miserly then! Stay out of this. I don’t want to talk to you, a prince begging food from a girl, how disgraceful!"
The Third Prince’s face turned red with anger.
Seeing Prince Ping protect Daohua, the Crown Prince and the others wisely chose not to say more.
Gu Jian glanced at Xiaowu’s sons, shook his head internally, then turned to the old Prince Yong, "My lord, come sit with me in the courtyard."
Prince Yong smiled and nodded, "Alright."
Seeing Gu Jian leading Prince Yong away, Prince Ping immediately followed.
Xiao Yechen hurried after them, and the other princes followed as well.
However, Daohua stood up and blocked them, "Princes, Master Xiao, I apologize. Xiao Yeyang is not present, and I’m not in a position to host you. Perhaps it’s best if..."
Though she didn’t finish her speech, her message to send them away was clear.
The Third Prince scoffed, "We don’t need your hospitality."
Daohua smiled lightly, "This is my manor, and I really cannot entertain you here."
The Crown Prince looked at Daohua, "Countess, are you not welcoming us?"
Daohua replied, "It’s not about unwelcoming; it’s inconvenient."
Xiao Yechen sneered, "Why then can old Prince Yong and my father stay?" adding with a scoff, "Perhaps the Countess’s inconveniences are selective?"
Daohua’s voice cooled, "Master Xiao, watch what you say. Old Prince Yong and Prince Ping are guests of my master."
Xiao Yechen retorted, "We are also your master’s guests."
Daohua glanced at Xiao Yechen, unapologetically, "Master Xiao, you’re not qualified enough."
"You..." Xiao Yechen glared at Daohua, anguished.
The Crown Prince and the others were taken aback, not expecting Daohua’s boldness. Realizing they didn’t want to offend the princes, Daohua explained, "Princes, my master prefers not having strangers around, please understand."
Hearing this, the Crown Prince and his peers decided not to insist on staying.
Firstly, the old master didn’t invite them. If they tagged along, it truly seemed undignified.
Secondly, visiting the Countess of Shengping’s manor wasn’t appropriate.
Xiao Yechen, seeing Daohua was resolute in not letting them stay, immediately called to Prince Ping, "Father!"
Prince Ping who walked over ten meters away with Gu Jian and old Prince Yong, stopped when hearing Xiao Yechen’s call and turned around.
Xiao Yechen quickly spoke, "Father, the Countess won’t allow me and other princes to follow."
Daohua smoothly took over, "Prince, Xiao Yeyang is absent, and it’s improper for me to host the princes and Master Xiao."
Xiao Yechen humphed, "We wouldn’t dare to trouble the Countess."
Daohua made a gesture towards the door, "Then please, Master Xiao, go ahead."
"You..."
Xiao Yechen urgently looked towards Prince Ping.
Thinking of Gu Jian’s reclusive nature, Prince Ping spoke, "Chenchen, you and Yehang should go back."
Xiao Yechen was stunned as he didn’t expect Prince Ping to say that.
Then, old Prince Yong added, "Yehang, take your brothers back." He then continued walking with Gu Jian.
At this moment, the Crown Prince and his peers really had no grounds to stay.
Xiao Yechen, not wanting Prince Ping to remain there, bypassed Daohua and approached Prince Ping, "Father, this is Countess Shengping’s manor. Since when does a father-in-law stay at his daughter-in-law’s place?"
"Moreover, Countess Shengping and my brother aren’t even married yet. You staying here could lead to gossip. Better to come back to the Prince Residence with me."
Prince Ping frowned, "Who says I’m staying here? I clearly stay at Yeyang’s manor, and I simply come to Four Seasons Manor to chat with the old master to relieve my boredom during the day."
Xiao Yechen’s voice was loud enough for Gu Jian to hear, who then stopped and looked at Prince Ping with evident displeasure, "Take your son and leave; I don’t want to hear any gossip."
Saying this, he snorted and walked away.
Prince Ping was stunned by Gu Jian’s reaction.
Xiao Yechen was furiously indignant, "Father, that old man is too arrogant to treat you this way."
Daohua approached, "Master Xiao, you really don’t wish Prince to be well. My master is treating his health, yet you stir up their relationship; do you really wish not to see Prince healthy?"
She then looked at Prince Ping,
"Prince, my master worries about my reputation. He isn’t truly against you, but given what Master Xiao has said, I now dare not keep you here either. Please go with him."
Watching Daohua leave him to follow Gu Jian and old Prince Yong, Prince Ping felt awkward and stifled, glaring unhappily at Xiao Yechen.
"Chenchen, why would you think that?"
Xiao Yechen, "Father, I didn’t know you were staying at my brother’s manor."
Prince Ping angrily, "You know nothing yet dare to speak nonsense outside?" freёweɓnovel.com
Xiao Yechen bowed his head silently, appearing remorseful.
Prince Ping snorted and turned away from Xiao Yechen to address the Crown Prince and the others, "What are you waiting for? Hurry up and go. If any disgraceful gossip gets out later, I’ll hold you accountable."
The Crown Prince and his peers were left speechless—how was this their fault?
However, thinking back, to tarnish Xiao Yeyang’s reputation, Xiao Yechen was truly ruthless, even causing embarrassment for Prince Ping.
