Hong Mei was lent to Tutor Zhu, and somehow, Daohua got wind of this.
Daohua didn't have any reaction to this, she continued doing whatever she was supposed to do.
Wang Manman looked at Daohua with surprise, "Miss, aren't you angry?" She knew that in order to make the two pots of Hong Mei bloom earlier, the eldest daughter would spend time tending to them every night before going to bed.
Daohua replied indifferently, "I have already given the Hong Mei to Mother, as long as Mother isn't displeased, I am not angry."
After learning that Hong Mei was lent to Tutor Zhu, Madam Li had specifically come to explain to her that her father had a hard time navigating the bureaucratic world and had to spend effort on winning over his colleagues and subordinates. Otherwise, a County Magistrate without any backing would find it very hard to carry out his duties.
She understood this.
Wang Manman said, "But it was Tutor Lin who encouraged Father to lend out the Hong Mei."
