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 can’t 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 Yin’s sake. When you come out after a few days, don’t repeat such mistakes anymore. I can’t guarantee your safety next time.”
Qian Ning shuddered for a moment.
At first, she had thought that with the little lady’s 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!
Tang Yi sighed helplessly as Qian Ning would not utter a single word. In the end, he left the ancestral hall.

At the backyard of the Tang family.
Tang Yu swept away all the cups that were on the table. Her face was twisted.
She had met that b*tch Qian Ning just as she came back from Fengyun Manor. What angered her more was that Tang Yin was still alive!
“Wen Feng, how dare you deceive me! When I get back to Fengyun Manor, I’m not letting you off!”
About those Five Spirit Grass…
A cold light flashed in Tang Yu’s eyes.
There was a mobile spirit herb storage at the back of the hills. Naturally, there were Grade-5 spirit herbs in there as well. But she would not give Tang Yin what she wanted!
“Yu’er, what are you doing?”
Tang Yu was too focused on her thoughts, she did not notice Tang Luo’s appearance. When she came to her senses, she saw Tang Luo looking on in astonishment.
Tang Luo saw her ferocious face, and that made him shiver.
He had never thought that the obedient and lovely daughter of his could have such a side.
“Father,” Tang Yu opened her mouth as her tears fell down. “Little Sister Tang Yin must be doing it on purpose! She knew how important the Five Spirit Grass was to me, but she still asked Qian Ning to steal it. She just wants to break my heart!”
Tang Luo’s eyebrows were furrowed slightly. “Tang Yin is unfamiliar with the ways of the world; she wouldn’t do this.”
“Father, you don’t understand! I met Little Sister Tang Yin some time ago and I’ve mentioned the Five Spirit Grass to her before. She knew how important it was to me!”
Tang Yu pitifully said as she hid the viciousness in her eyes.
