Chapter 1670: What a Coincidence

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

As it was getting last night, Shao Zhongxi did not stay for long and returned to his residence.

Shao Boqi also planned to get some sleep in. He entered the backyard and passed by the garden. However, before he entered the courtyard where he usually slept, he saw Shao Yucen’s two maidservants, Chun Hua and Xia Hua, sitting on the steps beside the hand-washing veranda.

Why were they forced to sit here, instead of serving his daughter in the courtyard?

Shao Boqi felt that it was strange and walked over.

Chun Hua and Xia Hua were originally in a bad mood because Shao Yucen scolded them for no reason. However, it had been more than two hours since then. They slowly forgot about what she did and stopped caring about it. It was useless to care about their grievances. Then, they began to doze off.

Hugging their knees, they were dozing off when they saw the Duke walking over. They were immediately shocked and staggered to their feet. Then, they lowered their heads and stood up properly. They called out, “Master.”

“Why aren’t you guys on duty?” Shao Boqi asked. “What are you doing here?”

“Miss doesn’t want us to serve her.” Chun Hua and Xia Hua trembled.

Shao Boqi had always known that his daughter was quite willful. He was not surprised. He only said, “Even so, you should be sitting at the courtyard entrance and not here.”

“But, but, but…” Chun Hua and Xia Hua trembled even more. They didn’t dare to say that she wanted them to scram

“But what?”

Chun Hua and Xia Hua still didn’t dare to say.

“Speak!” Shao Boqi was a little angry. This was no time for dilly-dally.

Naturally, Chun Hua and Xia Hua were more afraid of Shao Boqi, the Duke. When they saw Shao Boqi getting angry, they were so scared that they quickly knelt on the ground. Their bodies trembled as they said, “Miss told us to get lost.”

That was why they came here.

When Shao Boqi heard this, he felt his daughter was willful. She took after her deceased mother. However, he was still a father after all. He had to care about his daughter more than strangers. He asked patiently, “Why did she ask you to get lost? What’s wrong with her?”

“I don’t know.” Chun Hua and Xia Hua whispered.

“You guys are serving her, how could you not know?”

Chun Hua said, “We don’t know. We were originally sitting at the door of her room, waiting for her to wash up and pour her bath water. Who knew that she would open the door and say that she accidentally cut her hand and asked us to get some medicine? We wanted to go in and treat her wound, but she scolded us and asked us to get lost. We came here. It’s been so long, but she hasn’t asked us to help with the bathwater. I don’t know if her wound has been treated, but we secretly looked around and saw that the light in her room was off. So we concluded that she should be asleep.”

Shao Boqi was originally quite worried when he heard that his daughter accidentally cut her hand. He wanted to ask how his daughter was, but the more he heard the story, the more he felt strange.

His daughter had been pampered since she was young. How could she not let her maids treat her wound? She got angry and scolded the servant girl instead. She did not allow the servant girl to enter and even asked the servant girl to get lost.

It wouldn’t be right if she didn’t call a servant girl to pour the bathwater…

He recalled that his second brother, Shao Zhongxi, had come to tell him that the thief who had entered the Ministry of Works had been injured and was missing. Since he was injured, he needed medicine to patch himself up…

What a coincidence. His daughter’s hand was injured tonight and she asked for medicine…

Shao Boqi couldn’t help but ask, “Did you see if she accidentally cut her hand?”
