Yun Ruo Xue saw that Yun Qian Meng spoke the meaning so clear, she also didn’t hide anymore. She let her gaze fall on the ground and nodded. But she instantly looked up and said embarrassed: “Jiejie¹ don’t misunderstand meimei²! Meimei just thought that Gu Lao Tai Jun³ is also Ruo Xue’s waizumu³! When Xue er went there in the past, Lao Tai Jun treated me warmly! This is her sixtieth birthday, if Xue er doesn’t go, won’t I be criticised by outsider? I ask jiejie to allow meimei to be filial!”

While saying that, Yun Ruo Xue knelt again towards Yun Qian Meng……

How can Yun Qian Meng just let her be like this? With this kneeling, if she doesn’t agree to it, Ruo Xue probably won’t get up. Then Su Qing will take this opportunity to create some troubles!

Yun Qian Meng gave Mu Chun⁵ and Mi mama⁶ a look. Both approached and blocked the two maids who were standing behind Yun Qian Meng.

Yun Qian Meng saw this and her expression showed that she was moved. She held Ruo Xue’s arm and stopped her from kneeling. But Ruo Xue seemed to be determined and kneeled more violent while she said: “Please allow!”

Seeing how she insisted, Yun Qian Meng’s heart felt tired, but her mouth laughed: “Meimei is so sweet! If waizumu knows, she’ll certainly be happy! No matter if meimei went or not, jiejie will tell waizumu meimei’s mind. Presumably she won’t blame you. So please meimei stand up. Don’t let the servants keep seeing this and think jiejie is bullying meimei and thereby alienating our feelings of sisters!”

While saying that Yun Qian Meng put more force on her arms forcing Ruo xue to stand up.Yun Ruo Xue is secretly surprised. How can the Yun Qian Meng who have lived like that have such strengths? Because of the pain on her arms , she frowned. She was just about to open her mouth, when she saw that Mu Chun and Mi mama has crossed over her two maids. The two of them went to each side of her. She can only temporarily give up.

At this time Yun Ruo Xue’s face is full of grievances. But it didn’t seem to be because she couldn’t go to Lao Tao Jun’s brithday and is sad.

Yun Qian Meng recovered her hands and leisurely sat down. Seeing Ruo Xue’s pitiful appearance, she sighed and said: “Meimei, why be like this? Jiejie has already said to zumu³ that you’ll attend the birthday, but the problem is Su yiniang didn’t allow it. After all, Su yiniang is meimei’s biological mother, although she’s a servant, on meimei’s head there’s the word “filial”. If we go against Su yiniang’s wishes, I fear that it won’t be good to meimei’s reputation!”

After saying, Yun Qian Meng made a really “I can’t do anything” expression. One hand tapped on the table to express that she really can’t do anything.

When Yun Ruo Xue heard this, the hand wiping away the tears stopped.

Of course, she knows why her mother refused to let go. It’s just that yesterday she cried for a whole day, but Su Qing still didn’t let go. Then she came to Qi Luo Yuan⁸ to push her luck and see if Yun Qian Meng will take her to Fu Guo Gong Fu. Otherwise with her deep bone hate for Yun Qian Meng, how could she forget her dignity to seek out this little slut without a mother?

Yun Qian Meng saw a float of emotions pass through Ruo Xue’s eyes and knows that Yun Ruo Xue must’ve eaten nails at Su Qing’s. Then she must’ve formed an idea about myself. Otherwise, with Yun Ruo Xue’s temper and her hate for myself, I fear that even if she is killed she won’t want to set one step in Qi Luo Yuan.

For the time being, the room is quieted down. Unhurriedly Yun Qian Meng drank tea. And Yun Ruo Xue is anxiously thinking about how she can get Yun Qian Meng to take her.

“Young miss, it’s time to go pay respect to old lady!”

At this time, Mi mama reminded Yun Qian Meng.

Mi mama doesn’t want to see Yun Ruo Xue. in particular after this woman wanted to destroy her young miss’s innocence and now is so thick-skinned to come and beg young miss. Really shameless!

And after listening to what Yun Ruo Xue just said, it let Mi mama think why in this world there such a person who is so thick-skinned!

Yun Ruo Xue’s waizumu is the one in Su mansion. That Gu Lao Tai Jun of Fu Guo Gong Fu is her young miss biological waizumu. Her bazi⁹ is not in line with that of a concubine’s child, Yun Ruo Xue’s! But Yun Ruo Xue is making a relation out of it and called Lao Tai Jun her waizumu. Really disgusting.

Comments:

I won’t be making a summary anymore, because you can follow the story well without the summary. And because I don’t want to read the early chapters again. At chapters were the past chapters is needed, I’ll write bits of the summary.

Mi mama isn’t someone who followed YQM since she was little, but she was a maid of her mother’s. At first YQM didn’t trust her, but she showed that she is really loyal to YQM. She felt guilty because she abandoned YQM’s mom when she was nearly giving birth. She abandoned YQM’s mom because of something her son did. I think it was gambling.
