Rebirth of an Idle Noblewoman || LK Adaptation

Rosé’s house wasn’t far away, and she arrived quite quickly by taxi. Rosé had already been waiting outside the mansion, and upon seeing Lisa she came over to her. Grandfather Xiao was sitting outside in the courtyard leisurely, and it seemed like he was in perfectly good health.

“What’s that you’re holding in your hand?” The two girls entered the mansion, and Rosé looked at the white plastic bag Lisa was carrying in her hand.

Lisa followed her gaze to the plastic bag, and her lips visibly twitched.

She only traded a ginseng root from the system, and the system didn’t give her a decent looking container and asked her to carry it with a plastic bag. Would anyone believe that it was a real ginseng root if it were carried by a plastic bag?

“Oh, this? This is a gift for Grandpa Xiao, it’s a hundred-year-old ginseng root.” Lisa stuffed the plastic bag into Rosé’s hands and started making things up. She knew that it was just a ginseng root that the system created from thin air, but it was quite good looking so she guessed that this was a good reason. “System, can you recycle things that I traded points with you for?”

If Rosé didn’t want it, she would make the system recycle it on the spot and get her three points back.

[Of course not.] The system spirit rolled its eyes.

Rosé accepted the plastic bag and handed it over to her butler. “Didn’t someone give us a bottle of hundred-year-old wine? Use that to soak this ginseng root, Grandfather should be able to drink medicinal wine.”

“You believe me?” Lisa was taken aback by how readily Rosé accepted the gift. If someone had handed a plastic bag to her and said that the ginseng root inside was a hundred years old, she would probably slap them in retaliation. What kind of person uses a plastic bag to carry such a precious ginseng root?

That butler took out the ginseng root and examined it for a while, and smiled. “This ginseng that Miss. Lalisa gave looks quite extraordinary if I must say so myself.”

Was he knowledgeable about it? Lisa walked over to him. “You can tell?”

“Grandpa Butler has learned medicine before, and this ginseng root doesn’t look fake at all.” Rosé glanced at Lisa in disdain, as if questioning why she was asking such a stupid question.

“What do you know?” Lisa followed behind Rosé to the courtyard to meet her grandfather. “If you’re so smart, why don’t you recite Shu Dao Nan by Li Bai for me?”

Rosé was stunned by the sudden question. What was the first sentence of that poem again? “I’m home now though?”

Lisa glanced at her in similar disdain. “That’s not an excuse for you to not memorize, chop-chop!”

“The difficulty of the Shu Road…”

Lisa listened to her recite and corrected her errors accordingly, and even asked her how to write a few specific words as she did, and this continued until they came to the courtyard.

“Grandpa Xiao, good morning.” Lisa bowed politely and smiled sweetly at Rosé’s grandfather.

She was quite pretty, her eyes like clear springs with light dimples, and as she walked she seemed to purify the very air around her like a forest spirit. At a single glance, she was even prettier than the cold beauty Rosé, and Grandpa Xiao had a great first impression of her. As expected, it was quite easy for her to talk with him, and Rosé couldn’t even join the conversation, and finally, she gave up and grumpily took the maths papers that Lisa had brought to do maths exercises back in the mansion.
