Chapter 522 - 522: Bad Woman



Yu Niaoniao was stunned.

“Why are you saying that about our father?”

It was not that she respected Yu Kangtai very much, but this era valued filial piety too much. As a girl born and raised in a traditional family, Yu Pingping would definitely be affected by this patriarchal thought and naturally, treat her father as her sky.

However, Yu Pingping’s words just now were openly mocking her father.

Yu Niaoniao found it unbelievable!

Yu Pingping pursed her lips.

“In the past, I felt that there was nothing wrong with our father. But ever since I helped you manage the finances of the opera troupe, my father had interfered with my freedom in all kinds of ways.”

“He despised the opera troupe as a lowly business.”

“He forbade me to go out and interact with the opera troupe.” “If I don’t listen, he’ll use the family law on me. I’m sick of him now!” Yu Niaoniao frowned. “Did he hit you?”

Yu Pingping said, “He wanted to hit me, but my brother stopped him. I don’t understand. I just wanted to find something to do. Why did he do everything to stop me?”

The more she spoke, the more aggrieved she became, and her voice lowered.

Yu Niaoniao looked at her seriously. “Then do you still want to help me manage the finances of the opera troupe?”

Yu Pingping gave an affirmative answer without hesitation.

“Of course!

The more my father looked down on me, the more I had to prove to him that I was no worse than anyone else.

Even if I leave him, I have the ability to raise myself!”

It would be fine if she was still the little girl who had been raised in the inner residence, but after tasting the sense of accomplishment of earning money with her own ability, how could she be willing to listen to her father?

Although she could not be as powerful as the princess in The Record of the

Phoenix Cry Nation, she hoped to have the right to make decisions for herself.

Yu Niaoniao smiled and praised sincerely, “Good for you.”

Yu Pingping raised her chin and smiled triumphantly. “Of course!”

Yu Niaoniao said, “Then it’s settled. Go back and prepare a beautiful set of clothes. I’ll see you in Qirui Garden the day after tomorrow.”

“Yes!”

Yu Pingping left with the gift box.

After taking two steps, she suddenly stopped and turned to look at Yu Niaoniao.

“You almost fooled me. The scar on your face…”

Yu Niaoniao hurriedly said, “Don’t worry, I was just teasing you. My scar can disappear. It just takes a while.”

Yu Pingping was immediately furious.

“How dare you lie to me? You’re too much!”

She rushed over with the gift box and bumped into Yu Niaoniao hard before running away angrily.

Yu Niaoniao took two steps back and smiled helplessly.

“Why are you still acting like a child? Childish!”

They were about to leave when a familiar shout came from behind.

“Princess Consort, is that you?”

Yu Niaoniao stopped in her tracks and turned to look in the direction of the voice. She saw a fat middle-aged man running out of the bookstore.

She recognized him at a glance. This fat man was one of the many booksellers she had worked with.

She cursed inwardly. This guy was definitely here to rush her for the manuscript.

Yu Niaoniao pulled Ling Hai along and was about to run.

Seeing this, the fat bookseller hurriedly increased his speed and chased after him, shouting.

“Princess Consort, stop running. I recognized you!

‘When did you get back? Why didn’t you tell us?’ When are you going to return the manuscript you owed us previously?” Yu Niaoniao pretended not to hear and ran even faster.

The fat bookseller said, “If you run again, I’m going to call out your pen name.” Yu Niaoniao immediately braked and stopped.

Now that there were people everywhere in broad daylight, if the fat bookseller shouted her pen name, it would be equivalent to the entire city knowing that she was selling sketchbooks.

She placed her hands on her hips and spoke to the fat bookseller.

“Don’t shout. We have an agreement. If you expose my pen name, our cooperation will immediately end. You’ll have to pay me ten times the royalties.”

The fat bookseller was tired and panted.

“I—I had no choice.”

“You were gone for half a year. We agreed to submit the manuscript when you returned. ”

“But you didn’t tell us that you were back. You even made so many of us wait for you.”

“You don’t know, but people come to the bookstore every day to ask about new books. We were racking our brains to think of a way to stall for time.”

“But it’s almost the end of the year. We really couldn’t delay it any longer.

Please do us a favor and give us the draft quickly.”

He bowed with both hands as he spoke, looking really pitiful.

Yu Niaoniao felt guilty.

Back then, she had promised to submit the manuscript when she returned, but now she could no produce it.

She was the one who had gone back on her word. She was in the wrong.

“I’m not done yet. Wait a little longer. I’ll let you know when I’m done.” The fat bookseller was not so easy to fool.

“You always say to wait a little longer, but it won’t end. You have to give us a definite answer this time. When can you submit the manuscript?”

Yu Niaoniao scratched her face and said awkwardly.

“I’ll submit the manuscript after the Lantern Festival.”

“Lantern Festival! ” The fat bookseller widened his green bean eyes and roared in disbelief. “Why didn’t you say that you would submit the manuscript during the Dragon Boat Festival?”

Yu Niaoniao was overjoyed. “Then I’ll submit the manuscript during the Dragon Boat Festival!”

The fat bookseller was so angry that he almost soared to the sky.

“Do you know how many people are waiting for your new book?” “Do you know how much pressure we booksellers have to endure every day?”

“Look at mv size. I’m so worried that I’m gaininz weight!”

“And my hair, it falls off in large quantities every day!” “If this continues, my wife will despise me!”

“Please do us a favor and stop torturing us, okay?’”‘

Yu Niaoniao said, “Don’t you look like you have a lot of hair?”

The fat bookseller pulled the hat off his head and reached out to pull his hair back, revealing a small patch of bare scalp.

“Look, is there a lot of hair? Is there a lot?”

Yu Niaoniao looked at the reflective scalp and really could not go against her conscience.

The fat bookseller put his hat back on and said angrily, “I’ve seen countless authors, but I’ve never seen an author who can drag it out as well as you.”

“However, you have a noble status, so I don’t dare to do anything to you. No matter how stressed I was, I had to endure it myself.”

“God, I just want to sell a few books to earn some money to support my family.

Is it easy for me? Boohoo!”

He actually covered his face and cried as he spoke.

The surrounding pedestrians looked over and sized up the fat bookseller and Yu Niaoniao curiously.

Yu Niaoniao said, “Why are you crying? Men don’t cry easily.”

The fat bookseller said, “Boohoo! You didn’t keep your word. You can’t do what you promised me, you big liar!”

Yu Niaoniao said, “I didn’t do it on purpose. I have my reasons.”

The fat bookseller said, “Boohoo! What difficulties can you have? Don’t you just want to play with me? You just feel very happy to see me worried about you every day, don’t you?”

Yu Niaoniao said, “When did I? Don’t talk nonsense.”

The fat bookseller said, “You do! You bad woman!”

Seeing that the onlookers’ gazes were becoming stranger and stranger, Ling Hai hurriedly pulled Yu Niaoniao’s sleeve and reminded her softly.

“This is not a place to talk..”
