Grand Master Pu An only came this time to say hello to Lady Mo, and now, having received Yueyao's veiled sarcasm, she felt uncomfortable. After exchanging a few words with Lady Mo, she left.
Lady Mo scolded Yueyao, "Where have all your manners and etiquettes gone? How dare you act so recklessly in front of Grand Master Pu An. Can you bear the consequences of offending her? Even if you don't care about your reputation, Lian Mansion still does!"
Yueyao replied indifferently, "Auntie, I merely mentioned that Grand Master Pu An asked me to copy a thousand volumes of scriptural texts within a year. These were her exact words, not something I fabricated." She was telling the truth without any embellishment.
The irony in Yueyao's words was undisguised, and everyone in the room sensed it. Yuebing wanted to defuse the tension and thought better of it, giving Yuehuan a meaningful look. It wasn't appropriate for her to intervene, but Yuehuan might handle it better.
