Chapter 248 Women Would Drink This After Labouring

Katherine also noticed Marshall’s gaze. She glanced at him and didn’t understand his meaning.

She didn’t know about luxuries and simply thought the tea set was delicate.

Except for the tea set itself, it was also equipped with teapot and tea cups, which made perfectly with the tea set for similar tones.

Younger Mrs. Grant picked up the teapot and checked it thoroughly.

Khalid went forward and said, “This seems to be an ancient teapot.”

Younger Mrs. Grant nodded and said, “This is made from purple clay. Well, there are also come tea cups. They look really nice.”

Marshall finally found what was inside the gift box.

He stood beside Katherine and finally said slowly, “Hector is really generous.”

At first, Katherine was smiling, however, after hearing his words, she frowned and looked at him with a terrible expression.

What did this have to do with Hector? What was wrong with Marshall?

Katherine couldn’t scold him in front of so many people and could only pretend that she had heard nothing.

Clara was standing in front of the door and also brought a gift.

Her gift was put on the sofa.

Younger Mr. Grant squatted on the other side and was very content of his gift.

Old Mrs. Grant didn’t know what to say and could only tell Katherine with a smile, “Your uncle is in love of drinking tea and have changed several tea sets. You really understand him well.”

Katherine also smiled and decided to thank Kyle the next time she saw him.

He was really her lucky star.

Mrs. Grant stood behind the crowd and snorted.

Old Mrs. Grant heard her voice and decided to ignore her.

Lucas stood aside and looked at them for a while, then he came beside Katherine and said, “It must take you a long time to pick this gift.”

Katherine was a bit awkward because the gift was sorted from the storeroom and she didn’t even bother choosing it at all.

However, she couldn’t tell them the truth.

She smiled and responded, “Yes, but it’s not a big problem for me.”

Younger Mr. Grant was going to use the tea set. He emptied the table, placed the tea set on it and brought some water.

His house really had a large living room that could contain all people.

Old Mrs. Grant sat on the sofa and asked Katherine to sit beside her.

She was always holding Katherine’s hand.

Katherine looked down on her hand and kind of noticed what was going on.

Clara came today. No matter what was Marshall’s relation with her. Old Mrs. Grant had to show everyone that Katherine meant a lot to the Grant family.

She was proving this not only to everyone in the Grant family, but also to Clara.

No matter how would Marshall and Clara end up with, old Mrs. Grant could only guarantee that Katherine was a good woman and deserved to be well-treated.

Clara was still standing in front of the door. Seeing Katherine was sitting beside old Mrs. Grant and Marshall, she tried hard to adjust her expression.

Actually, she had expected what would happen today.

She knew Katherine’s temper and got ready to be humiliated by her.

However, Katherine behaved nicely today and didn’t find her any trouble.

Younger Mr. Grant was concentrated. He told his wife to bring some tea and to boil the tea set.

He decided to use the extra one. It seemed he was really found of the gift.

Seeing this, Katherine couldn’t help thinking his serious look in normal times and found he was so different from those times.

Mrs. Grant thought for a while and brought Clara in. At first, Katherine’s another uncle was standing beside Marshall, now he had to move a little when seeing Mrs. Grant come.

Mrs. Grant brought Clara and sat beside Marshall.

Clara got close to Marshall with a curious look and said, “Well, I didn’t know younger Mr. Grant was so fond of tea culture.”

Actually, Clara had visited the Grant family’s old house before. At that time, she had just engaged with Marshall and it was natural for the two families to visit each other.

However, she had only came here for not more than three times and Marshall broke off the engagement with her.

Marshall turned around and looked at her, saying calmly, “Yes, he really loves researching old gadgets.”

Katherine only glanced at them and didn’t seem to care at all.

Younger Mr. Grant said when he was boiling the water, “I have bought a teapot made of purple clay before and I like it so much. However, I accidentally broke it and it was so heartbroken. After that, I searched the market for a long time and didn’t find any favoured teapot. Now this teapot really satisfies me.”

Katherine behaved properly and said, “It’s great that you like it.”

Clara said to Marshall beside her, “I don’t know his hobby and pick cigarette lighter. Does younger Mr. Grant smoke?”

Marshall nodded and replied, “Yes. A cigarette lighter is also a good gift.”

Clara shrank her neck and smiled shyly, “I hope he will like it.”

Marshall answered, “Yes, he will.”

Both Katherine and old Mrs. Grant heard their conversation.

Old Mrs. Grant took Katherine’s hand and asked, “Have you changed your ring?”

She grabbed the ring on Katherine’s finger and rolled it for several rounds, saying, “Yes, you should. The old one looks too fancy and must be inconvenient in daily life. This looks simple.” This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.

Hearing her words, Marshall turned around and looked at Katherine. He glanced at her ring, compressed his lips and didn’t say anything.

Katherine curled her lip and replied, “Yes, indeed,”

Younger Mr. Grant had made the tea and poured a cup for everyone present. It was a good thing that there were enough cups.

Katherine couldn’t tell whether the tea tasted good or not. She was not an elegant woman and drank tea only because she was thirty.

Maybe because younger Mr. Grant really liked the teapot, he kept admiring the tea tasted perfect after taking several sips, which made Katherine almost laugh out.

They stayed together for a while and people from the main building came to inform them that the lunch was ready.

The bunch of people hurriedly went to the main building.

Mrs. Grant called Marshall when everybody stood up.

Marshall stood still and looked at her mother.

Katherine pretended she didn’t know anything. She grabbed old Mrs. Grant’s arm and went outside.

Clara was standing beside Marshall and also looked at her.

Mrs. Grant deliberately slowed down her pace. She grabbed Marshall and talked with him, then she walked apart with others.

Old Mrs. Grant looked back and didn’t look well.

Mrs. Grant didn’t look at her and stood still stubbornly.

Katherine grabbed old Mrs. Grant’s arm and said, “Let’s go, grandma.”

Old Mrs. Grant sighed and thought Mrs. Grant was really stupid.

When she got older, she became more empty-headed.

Katherine and the others were walking in the front, while Marshall, Clara and Mrs. Grant followed behind.

Clara suddenly laughed and Mrs. Grant also smiled happily.

Katherine tired to remain calm. If she really cared about this thing, she would be so irritated.

They arrived in the kitchen of the main building. Although the table was not large, it would be enough for everyone to sit down.

Katherine and Marshall sat on their old seats, while Clara felt uncomfortable no matter where she sat.

Finally, she could only sit on the extra seat opposite to Lucas.

Everyone was all set.

Today’s lunch was really sumptuous with all kinds of materials from land, ocean, sky and soil.

Old Mrs. Grant called the servant to fill a bowl of pigeon soup for Katherine.

She said kindly, “I told the cooker to prepare this for you. It’s good for females.”

Katherine stopped when she was holding the spoon and looked at old Mrs. Grant.

Old Mrs. Grant was also good at acting and continued, “Have some. I heard many women will drink this after delivery.”

She then threw herself into acting and said to Marshall, “You have to nourish the body to prepare for the future.”

Katherine and Marshall turned to look at each other.
