: The Tang Family I
Within the ancestral hall of the Tang family.
Qian Ning was kneeling in front of the ancestral tablets. Her two arms were hugging her own body. As the cold set in, her grips grew even tighter.
Creak
The door opened.
The great elder, Tang Yi, walked through the door. He looked at Qian Ning, who was kneeling in front of the ancestral tablets and softly let out a sigh. "Qian Ning, tell me, why does Xiao Yin want those Five Spirit Grass?"
Qian Ning bit her lip and looked downward.
She could never tell the elders what the grass was for. If she did, the great elder would never give it to her!
"Little Lady said that it was under her right to take a strain of Grade-5 spirit herb, so she asked me to come back and get it."
"Qian Ning" Tang Yi laughed bitterly. "You have potential. That was why I asked you to protect Xiao Yin. If you tell me what Xiao Yin is going to do with the Five Spirit Grass, then perhaps I could still give you some of the grass. If not, I cant make a decision."
As powerful as he was, he was but an elder. The lord of the Tang family was still around, if Qian Ning did not explain how she was going to use it, he could not give it to her.
"Furthermore" Tang Yi paused for a moment. "The lord is angered by your attempt to steal the Five Spirit Grass. I was able to protect you for Xiao Yins sake. When you come out after a few days, dont repeat such mistakes anymore. I cant guarantee your safety next time."
Qian Ning shuddered for a moment.
At first, she had thought that with the little ladys status, it would be a walk in the park to obtain a Five Spirit Grass. But she did not know that Tang Yu also wanted the Five Spirit Grass. Tang Luo, as the lord of the Tang family, favored Tang Yu more and gave the grass to her.
Unless
Unless they knew how important those Five Spirit Grass were to her Little Lady, or else they would not give in!
However, if the Tang family knew that the Little Lady would just give the Five Spirit Grass away to outsiders, they would definitely not give it to her. She tried to steal the Five Spirit Grass out of desperation. She did not expect that she would get caught!
