“It’s alright, sit down,” Situtu Qinger, with a smile brimming on her face, had the complete look of a well-bred young lady, extremely gracious and polite.

“Given my lowly status, how could I dare to take a seat before you, Miss? You should sit; I can stand,” Mei Hua said, touched but understanding her place. The Second Miss, her master, had not yet sat down, so she dared not sit herself.

The two of them insisted back and forth until Xuexue grew impatient, “Second Sister, do you want to go to the Imperial Palace or not? If you don’t want to, you may leave the carriage; don’t delay our entry to the palace.”

“Go, of course, we’ll go. How could we not at this point!” Although Situtu Qinger harbored resentment for Xuexue pressing her down at every turn, she still wore a smile on her face.

Finally, turning her head, she harshly scolded Mei Hua, “It’s all because of you, cheap maid, you almost delayed our trip to the Imperial Palace. When I tell you to sit, just sit, what’s with all the fussing!”

The sudden anger from Situtu Qinger scared Mei Hua to the point where she plopped down on the stool and didn’t dare to make a sound.

Situtu Qinger turned to Xuexue, her face wearing a pleasing smile, “Hehe! Big Sister, we can set off now!”

Clearly knowing that there was no place for Situtu Qinger to sit.

Xuexue simply ignored it and said to Zi Xia beside her, “The hour is getting late, call the carriage driver to set off.”

“Yes, Eldest Miss.”

Zi Xia agreed and reached out to lift the carriage curtain, calling out to the driver outside, “Coachman, the masters are settled! Let’s set out, we mustn’t delay the hour.”

There is a set time for entering the Imperial Palace, and after that time, entry is not permitted, so they needed to hurry.

The coachman outside responded, lifting his whip, and the carriage started moving.

Inside the carriage, as it began to move, Situtu Qinger unceremoniously sat down on Mei Hua’s lap.

“Miss.”

Mei Hua was taken aback by Situtu Qinger’s move, thinking perhaps she could not withstand the jolting of the carriage and accidentally fell onto her, panic-stricken.

Unexpectedly, Situtu Qinger said, “Mei Hua, make sure you’re seated properly. Your Miss will be sitting on your lap all the way to the Imperial Palace!”

“Miss, this is not proper!”

“What is improper about it?”

Mei Hua was left speechless; she couldn’t bluntly say: Miss, although you appear slim and frail, you are quite heavy, and it’s hard for me to breathe under your weight.

However, these honest thoughts, Mei Hua dared not express, and if Situtu Qinger had not been turned away from her, she probably wouldn’t have dared reveal even a bitter expression.

Situtu Qinger went on to say, “I am of noble birth; sitting on you is your good fortune. If there were a stool, I would not have let you share in my good fortune.”

Xuexue and her maid, sitting opposite, watched Situtu Qinger’s behavior and Mei Hua’s somber face and couldn’t help but shake their heads slightly.

In a past life, at this time, Situtu Qinger was not yet mature, so her actions often lacked subtlety.

In another two years, after enduring the patient tutelage of Lady Tang, she would become an expert in domestic intrigue, the extremely cunning type.

Mei Hua looked at Xuexue and her maid, silently pleading for help.

Xuexue’s lips curled up into a smile, “Second Sister, it’s truly indecorous for you to sit upon a maid like this. If seen by someone with ill intentions, it could cause quite a scandal. Surely you don’t want to damage your reputation, do you?”

“I’m sitting on my own maid, what’s it to others!” Situtu Qinger said unconcerned, finding that although Mei Hua’s plump body didn’t look appealing, sitting on her was exceptionally soft and comfortable.

She did not see the distressed look on Mei Hua’s face.
