After strolling through the main street, Miss Hou Tianying, the eldest daughter of the Hou family, returned to the estate and headed straight for Old Master Hou's study.
Unfortunately, Old Master Hou wasn't in his study at the moment.
Under the scorching sun, Miss Hou's face turned purplish with anger.
"Has Father gone to see that Aunt Mei again!"
A servant boy answered tremblingly.
"Yes... Yes, Miss!"
Hou Tianying trembled with rage and stormed off, flinging her sleeves behind her.
She turned and made her way to the Main Wife's courtyard.
As soon as she entered the room and saw her daughter overheated like this, the Main Wife hurried forward with concern.
"Oh, my Tianying, where have you been to get so hot!"
Without missing a beat, she gave orders.
"What are you all standing around for? Hurry and fetch water to wash the Young Miss's face!"
The maids around the room were so frightened that they hurriedly agreed.
