Princess Jiahua lived in the main courtyard of Yuehua Pavilion, while Song Yue moved to the side courtyard. The two courtyards were close to each other, and they could see each other from their respective doorways.
It wasn't until the dead of night that Princess Jiahua reluctantly let go of Song Yue's hand, allowing her to go back and rest.
As soon as the person left, Princess Jiahua's face instantly darkened.
"Princess, not long after the eldest son returned, Madam Yuan went to the bridal chamber. The Duke also knew that the eldest son had been beaten and went to Ninghui Hall. The Grand Madam has not been feeling well these past few days and has been eating vegetarian food and chanting Buddhist prayers every day..." Xiushu reported one by one.
Princess Jia Hua sneered: "With my return, some people are naturally restless. I will not let any of those who have bullied Yue'er get away with it!"
When Princess Jiahua heard that the villa had caught fire and her daughter had almost burned to death, she was so angry that tears streamed down her face, and she blamed Yuan Fuling for it.
“Princess, this servant thinks that the young lady not only looks like you, but also has the same personality—clever and quick-witted,” Xiu Shu said.
The princess was still worried about how to return, but the third daughter silenced the old fogies by donating her dowry and then returned openly under the pretext of cultivation.
That alone shows how clever the Third Sister is!
Princess Jia Hua raised her chin, a proud look on her face: "Of course, my daughter is naturally no less outstanding."
Princess Jia Hua's smile quickly vanished. Her face darkened. In her previous life, after her death, her soul floated in the air, watching Song Yue being bullied and witnessing how Song Yue died. She only regretted that she could not take her daughter's place.
For some reason, she came back to life as soon as she opened her eyes.
This time, Princess Jiahua spared no effort to return to Northern Chu.
Fortunately, my daughter survived.
She was given a chance to make amends.
Why haven't I seen Song Yao today?
Song Yao was Princess Jia Hua's number one enemy, deserving of being torn to pieces. Back then, Song Yao shamelessly took Yue Jie'er's dowry and, taking advantage of Yue Jie'er's simple-mindedness, tormented and humiliated her countless times.
Princess Jia Hua will seek retribution for this debt tenfold.
Xiu Shu shook her head: "This servant didn't see it either."
"Alright, we can't just run away from each other under the same roof." Princess Jiahua smiled and ordered people to prepare several sets of clothes and jewelry to give away tomorrow.
After traveling through the night, Princess Jiahua was finally able to get some rest.
The next day, before dawn, the newlyweds were to serve tea.
Princess Jiahua had instructed Xiushu to remind her to get up, and when the time came, Xiushu would wake her up and help her wash up.
After getting dressed, Princess Jia Hua glanced at herself in the mirror.
"Mother!"
Joyful laughter rang out.
Immediately afterward, Song Yue skipped in, holding up her dress, her face beaming with a bright smile. Princess Jia Hua also smiled broadly and waved to her, saying, "Sister Yue."
Song Yue rubbed her eyes, afraid that her mother would disappear in the blink of an eye. She pinched her palm and gasped in pain.
Princess Jia Hua's expression changed slightly, and she quickly took Song Yue's hand. Seeing that her palm was slightly red, her eyes also reddened: "Does it hurt?"
"Mother, it doesn't hurt. I just wanted to see if I was dreaming," Song Yue said with a smile.
Princess Jiahua felt even more sorry for the other woman upon hearing this, and noticing that her hair was too plain, she casually picked up a hairpin and put it in her hair: "Come with me for a stroll later, and I will buy you some clothes and jewelry."
Her daughter naturally deserved the best, and she arranged for Song Yue to have whatever was fashionable in the capital.
