Pretending not to see Xu Xinmo’s friendliness, and also feigning ignorance of her face turning black then white.
Smilingly turned and walked ahead.
Xu Xinmo was so angry, she bit her lip tightly.
Yun Zuomo, Yun Qingzhi, and Yun Qingqing lowered their heads, not daring to look.
Yun Musi and Yun Mulan secretly chuckled in their hearts and hurried to follow.
When they all arrived at Niannian Garden, Yun Jinnian asked Shi Jiayu to fetch some rice paper, "Each of you gets a stack, and everyone gets a Hui ink and a wolf-hair brush!"
She had several boxes of the Four Treasures of Study, all top quality, and didn’t want to give any to someone as ungrateful as Xu Xinmo.
"Thank you, sister!" Yun Zuomo, Yun Qingzhi, and Yun Qingqing sincerely thanked her.
"We’re all family, no need to be polite. Go back and write; grandmother will check tomorrow!"
Yun Zuomo and the others obediently thanked her and then left.
Xu Xinmo, Yun Musi, and Yun Mulan did not stay long either; after exchanging a few polite words, they also left.
Mrs. He thought for a long time and finally decided to visit Wang Yanran.
When Wang Yanran saw Mrs. He coming, she wasn’t flustered, "Mother!"
"You’re pregnant, sit down!" Mrs. He said, instructing Tianmi to bring the tonic soup, "Have some soup, I have something to tell you!"
While drinking soup, Wang Yanran naturally understood what Mrs. He wanted to say.
After putting down the bowl, she asked the maids in the room to leave, then said, "Mother, are you here for that maid?"
"Since you know why I’m here, why did you bother to deal with Yun Jinnian, bringing trouble upon yourself..." Mrs. He asked, puzzled.
Wang Yanran remained silent.
She was unwilling and resented Yun Jinnian.
Because of her, her cousin became a cripple; because of her, her aunt struggled in the palace, and her eldest cousin warned her several times not to deal with Yun Jinnian.
She had been cherished since childhood and never had anyone stepped on her , so how could she swallow this humiliation?
"Alas!" Mrs. He sighed, advising earnestly, "To deal with her, why must you personally act? There are plenty of people in this residence who dislike her. All you need is to nurture your pregnancy well, understand?"
Wang Yanran nodded slightly.
Mrs. He knew that Wang Yanran hadn’t listened, so she couldn’t help but advise again, "Now that she is a commandery princess personally appointed by the Emperor, her status is noble. Just look at yesterday’s congratulatory gifts, and you’ll know how popular she is in the Capital City. Why oppose her at this moment? Heed my advice; bear with it for now and see what end she comes to!"
The old lady is ruthless.
Moreover, there’s Xu Xinmo, who is also not one to be trifled with, and she has Grandma Jin by her side, who seems very eerie.
She was afraid to confront her directly.
"Mother, rest assured, I’ve listened and won’t trouble Jinnian anymore. Now that I’m expecting, I’ll treat it as accumulating blessings for the child!"
Let Yun Jinnian enjoy a few days for now.
Thinking this, Wang Yanran felt a bit triumphant and started to smile, then suddenly felt a stomach ache, "Oh no!" she screamed, breaking out in a cold sweat.
"Yanran, what’s wrong?" Mrs. He asked hurriedly.
She stepped forward to support Wang Yanran, worriedly furrowing her brows, and hurriedly called out, "Someone, someone!"
The voice was cold yet flustered.
Wang Yanran was in so much pain her face turned pale, she tightly gripped Mrs. He’s hand, stammering, "I, I have a stomachache, the c-child..."
Thinking she might have eaten something unclean, which endangered the child, Wang Yanran immediately felt terrible!
