"Second Auntie, I'm not criticizing you, but you clearly have a good heart. Why do you always have to behave so high and mighty..."
Emmm... Is this the right way to use this term?
Whatever, they say the Princess was exactly high and mighty in the past, so it must be fitting to describe Second Auntie!
Lian Qiao: "..."
"You uncultured little girl, don't make me slap you! It's 'high and... pfft! High and mighty! You've led me astray!"
In the past, Qiao'er would have been scared of this threat.
But after spending a few days in Lian Qiao's courtyard, she found that this Second Auntie isn't as frightening as Wu'er described, always threatening to beat or kill.
She just has a sharp tongue, a quick temper, but her heart is genuinely kind.
When she saw her staying up late watching the young doctor, she'd worry about her lack of rest and scold her to go to sleep.
When she saw her eating cold leftovers, she'd say it was stuff even pigs wouldn't eat, and tell her to get some hot food...
