Chapter 446: Domineering Old Madam (2)
The matter had to start after Yan Jiuchao took a nap. Not long after Madam Li left, Yan Jiuchao felt sleepy. Old Madam got someone to tidy up the room and personally sent her grandson to take a nap. Yan Jiuchao ignored her and turned around to wrap himself in the blanket to sleep. The old lady watched from the side with a silly smile and unknowingly fell asleep on the rattan chair.
When Yan Jiuchao woke up, the Old Madam was still asleep. He walked out openly. No one dared to wake the Old Madam up or stop Yan Jiuchao.
Yan Jiuchao first went to Xixia Garden. Yu Wan had yet to return. He muttered unhappily and walked out of the courtyard. After that, he strolled aimlessly in the manor.
Although the Helian Manor was divided into two manors, they were not separated from each other. In the early years, there was only the East Manor. After that, the second branch had more people, so they had no choice but to split up and build a West Manor. There was a garden between the two manors.
In the garden, there was another greenhouse with a shed. The greenhouse was for public use. There were things from the two manors planted inside, so everyone from the two manors could enter.
The gardener in the greenhouse did not know Yan Jiuchao. Even though he had heard that the Old Madam had recognized her biological grandson, he did not match Yan Jiuchao with the “Young Master of the East Manor” for a moment. When Yan Jiuchao strolled over, the gardener was stunned. The gardener felt that he should ask who he was, but Yan Jiuchao walked past him arrogantly. It was as if he was taking a stroll in his own house.
The gardener suddenly did not have the courage to ask.
Yan Jiuchao ruthlessly destroyed the flowers and brought disaster to all the valuable flowers in the East Manor. It was not enough to bring disaster to the East Manor, so he extended his vicious hand to the West Manor. However, he did not know that there was an East and West Manor. He picked whatever he wanted. After he finished picking what he liked, he would keep it. If he did not like it, he would throw it away.
The ugliest one was a pot of black Lingzhi. Looking at the ugly Lingzhi, a trace of disdain flashed across a certain young master’s eyes. There happened to be a large rag beside him. Yan Jiuchao picked up the rag with his fingertips and quickly covered it.
The two young masters of the West Manor arrived at the greenhouse fifteen minutes later. At this moment, Yan Jiuchao was already tired from destroying the garden. He sat on the swing chair in the greenhouse to rest.
The swing chair was at the innermost part of the greenhouse and was facing away from the door. The two of them did not notice that there was someone on it at first glance. The two of them went straight to the Wushan Lingzhi that had been raised for half a month, but they realized that there was a wet rag covering it.
Wushan Lingzhi was different from other Lingzhi. It needed a breathable and dry environment. If it was covered by such a wet cloth, it would at least lose a layer of skin, if not die. As expected, the two of them hurriedly removed the cloth and saw that the Lingzhi, which was still full of life the day before, had already wilted. The two of them were furious.
“Who did this?!” The young master on the left shouted angrily.
The Helian family had a total of two branches. They originally had three branches, but the third branch was an illegitimate son and had long moved out of the Capital to settle down in another town. They could not be considered the main family of the Helian family. The First Old Master and Old Madam had a son and a daughter. Their daughter was already married, and their eldest son was Helian Beiming. Helian Beiming also had a son with his wife, Madam Tan. That son was expelled from the family several years ago.
The West Manor where the Second Old Master was also only had one legitimate son, the late Helian Qi. However, Helian Qi could give birth. He had three sons with Madam Li alone. The eldest son was stationed in the military camp in the West City. These two were the second son, Helian Yu, and the third son, Helian Cheng. They were the second and third sons of the manor. The servants called them Second Young Master and Third Young Master.
However, ever since Yan Jiuchao came, their rankings had changed. The eldest young master of the second branch became the second young master, and the two of them became the third and fourth young masters.
The person who had roared just now was the fourth young master, Helian Cheng.
Helian Cheng had been spoiled by Madam Li. He had the worst temper and was also the most domineering. However, he probably did not know that the person he woke up on the swing chair was the ancestor in being domineering.
Yan Jiuchao lifted one eyelid, two eyelids, and hummed casually.
Helian Yu and Helian Cheng were stunned when they heard this commotion. They looked at the swing chair at the end of the greenhouse and realized that there seemed to be someone sitting on it.
“Who is it?” Helian Cheng asked.
Yan Jiuchao ignored him.
Helian Cheng and his brother exchanged glances and strode forward. They walked around the swing chair and stood opposite Yan Jiuchao.
Yan Jiuchao was wearing a plain white robe today. The style was neither eye-catching nor fancy. The collar was tightly tied, and he could not help but give off an abstinent aura. However, he was leaning casually against the chair, as if there was a trace of laziness.
