"Mrs. Ning, how are you? Our lord and lady went to your restaurant and found you weren't there, so I lead them here."

"Qingyou is here? Why don't you tell me in advance so that I can welcome you better?"

"Qianxue, sorry to disturb you without a notice in advance. I'll accept any punishment."

Jian Qingyou had lifted up the carriage curtain, smiled at Mo Qianxue and was about to introduce to Mo Qianxue her elder brother Jian Mobai who sat next to her.

Unexpectedly, Mo Qianxue quickly jumped off the oxcart, and gently pulled Jian Qingyou off the horse carriage too.

"Come on, Qingyou, sit with me on this oxcart."

Nanny Yuan also got off and shouted in a hurry, "No, lady, you can't!"

How could she let their lady take an oxcart? Her lady was brought up in the lap of luxury. How could she withstand the bumping and windy oxcart which would expose her to the public?

Ahu also coughed desperately on the side.

Today, he was going to suffer. His lord wouldn't do cruel things to lady but would definitely give him a torturing day.

He heard shadow guard said that last night lord kicked lady's ass and later was kicked off bed.

With that anger in his throat, his lord took it out on him and Asan by waking them up in midnight and let them show him martial moves, in the name of checking whether they had made progress in martial arts since he had lost contact with them for so long.

What a poor guy he was that first he learned how to drive an oxcart and then he fought against Asan until exhaustion and at last tried to befriend with the ox! He hadn't sleep for a second for the whole night!

Shadow guard had told him that what their lord hated most was the intimate behavior of their lady with this lady Jian.

They didn't know why lord hated lady Jian so much, but his preference was also theirs, so they had come to a unanimous decision that they would cut out any chance for their lady to contact with lady Jian.

But now, what should he do?

It was only yesterday that lady was disciplined, but now she forgot the pain so soon. In the end, the ones who had to suffer in real terms were them...

Mo Qianxue was clear what the coughing meant. She frowned and said in a soft yet ironic tone, "If you keep coughing like this, why not take a rest at home? Next time, let Asan be my driver." Before other people, and before Jian Qingyou, she needed to manage impression.

As soon as this was said, Awu's coughing disease immediately got better.

Nanny Yuan couldn't talk Jian Qingyou out, so she got onboard the horse carriage again, worried and helpless.

Ignoring Awu's change, Mo Qianxue, all smiles, pulled Jian Qingyou onto the oxcart, "I bet you never took an oxcart. Today, you're lucky enough to take advantage of me and try your first-time oxcart trip."

She ordered Awu to take the opposite direction to head home and turned back to hold Jian Qingyou's hand, "Enjoy. This cart is quite stable with a broad horizon. It's not worse than your horse carriage."

Young lord Jian was stunned by the statement.

It was the first time he heard someone bragging an oxcart in a voice that sitting on an oxcart seemed to be a great fresh-new thing.

It was the first time he saw someone on an oxcart should talk big before a person coming on a horse carriage.

It was also the first time he met such a countryman-driver who was even more handsome and better-built than their mansion guards.
