Translating Sloth

After a month Zhao Jin Yu was already used to this lifestyle, waking up early she wished her grandmother good health, then grandmother would make Zhao Jin Yu stay for breakfast, soon after she would practice calligraphy with grandmother, most of the grandchildren of the Zhao family boys and girls had to learn calligraphy from childhood, at noon she would return eat and take a nap, in the afternoon she would read for a while, or do embroidery work, in the evening she would again pay respect to her grandmother and have dinner with her, talking a while about daily life it would then be the time to sleep. With Zhao Jin Yu’s companionship, the madam’s illness became better day by day, she had almost recovered, but there was just one thing, the madam did not want to see her husband Xiao Xing Kun, and did not acknowledge Xiao Zhen Shan’s existence. These days were very boring, in the beginning Zhao Jin Yu could still bear it, but towards the end she was somewhat stifled, she still t...

After listening to the nanny Li the madam did not speak for a long time, she only smiled grimly when the nanny Li’s legs were almost numb from kneeling saying, “So after so many years, I’ve been raising an ungrateful wrench by my side.” Nanny Li’s heart thumped, only feeling a chill rush from the bottom of her feet, originally Zhao Rui Zhi did make some mistakes, because she had secretly taken calligraphy from the home to sell, primarily those calligraphies were passed down from their ancestors, sacred characters, invaluable, hard to get with thousands of gold, such a big disaster, after she was caught the madam actually effortlessly resolved it, at that time what did the madam say? She said Zhao Rui Zhi was still young, very many things needed to be slowly taught…, and blamed herself saying it’s because she did not give Zhao Rui Zhi enough spending money, that’s why she went onto this path, then a lot of people only said the madam’s eyes were being glued together by her adopted ...

Zhao Jin Yu entered the side hall, waiting until Zhao Rui Zhi’s shadow could no longer be seen she couldn’t hold herself up and sat on the floor, her so-called opulent and elegant appearance as merely her forcing herself to be like that nothing else, she leaned against the carved screen repeatedly breathing in, seeing this Chen Rong almost laughed, restraining it with great difficulty, she gently said, “I heard just now someone went to pick a fight with you, I rushed over, thinking I would see a weepy young lady, who would have imagined to see an expert who spoke without beating around the bushes, scolding indirectly.” “Aunt Chen, don’t tease me.” Zhao Jin Yu took the tea Chen Rong handed her, glugging it down, she felt the warm tea slide down her throat, into her stomach, warming it up, then did she feel a little bit comfortable, her face relaxed a bit, she said, “Someone came to bully me, if I didn’t fight back, how would I have a standing in the Zhao family?” Zhao Jin Yu’s ton...

Zhao Jin Yu looked at Xiao Zhen Shan like an idiot, she thought the young and old of this whole family, had more or less an issue with their brain, especially the one in front of her…, does he have a delusional disorder? She cleared her throat saying, “Older cousin Zhen Shan, I really do not know what you mean, please can you explain clearly.” “These past days, you used your position as blood related granddaughter to not allow younger sister Rui Zhi from serving the madam,” The more Xiao Zhen Shan spoke the angrier he got, if his eyes could shoot flames, Zhao Jin Yu would already be ash by now, “Could that not be true? Also younger sister Rui Zhi made white fungus soup yesterday, you however didn’t allow the madam to eat it! I don’t care what you’re planning, but younger sister Rui Zhi has always served the madam for the last few years, doing your filial duty, this is a very rare matter, you came after, you only have the superiority of blood, and you’re an illegitimate woman, wha...

Zhao Jin Yu saw the big bags under the madam’s eyes, she softly said, “Grandmother, are you feeling a little better?” It wasn’t very peaceful outside for the past two days, every person had their own thoughts, the reaction which gave people the biggest headache was Xiao Zhen Shan’s response…, he actually didn’t want to return to his family no matter what, he said Xiao Yu Xue had raised him from a child, better than his own parents, he still wanted to look after his parents and arrange proper burial when they die. Therefore no matter what he won’t return to the Zhao family. This angered Zhao Xing Kun so much he almost fainted, he didn’t recognise Xiao Zhen Shan until so late because he was afraid he wouldn’t be able to get pass the madam, but now it was already about the main branch’s future, and unable to deal with it he said it, but since he said it he wanted his son to return to the family, who would have imagined the most difficult problem wasn’t actually the madam, rather the...
