A dark look appeared in Madam Wei's eyes. She knew how formidable the Princess Zhenguo was. She had thought that she and Qiao Lian'er would keep to themselves, but unexpectedly, by a twist of fate, the illegitimate child ended up in the Qiao family.
"The bastard's home is in Xiamei Village, Yunzhou. Perhaps she remembered something and was sent back. Otherwise, how could she easily give up such a prestigious and wealthy family?"
"However, in order to nip this in the bud, I will send some people to Xiamei Village to clean it up, so as to avoid any future troubles."
Madam Wei closed her eyes briefly: "Don't cause trouble at the Qiao family's place, or in front of the Princess Zhenguo. If she doesn't provoke me, I won't provoke her either."
He sneered, "Otherwise, don't blame me for being impolite."
From Qiao Lian'er's perspective, she wasn't there to provoke the Wei family.
There are so many dirty things going on in high-ranking families. It's fine to gossip about them, but who would want to get involved?
Xiao Lan saved Da Meng Ge, and now that she herself is in dire straits, how can she not lend a helping hand?
However, she tried to handle the matter discreetly, avoiding direct confrontation with the Jiang family. After all, Xiao Lan was also Jiang Zhongmao's daughter, and if things got out of hand, it wouldn't look good between Da Meng and Xiao Lan.
Princess Shouguang had finished washing up and had breakfast. After these morning routines, she would usually lie in bed to rest and recuperate. However, this did not help her recover much. Most of the time, she was consumed by internal turmoil, her mind filled with thoughts of her indifferent daughter and her almost crippled son.
Today, however, she wants to stroll around the garden.
Summer has arrived, and the garden is full of blooming flowers and lush trees. A gentle breeze carries the rich fragrance of flowers.
Looking at this scenery, Princess Shouguang was filled with emotion at the boundless beauty and vitality of life. It was just a pity that she had only a few days left in her life.
Thinking of another possibility for her daughter, Princess Shouguang rallied her spirits, took a deep breath, and felt as if her body had been infused with some energy.
Even if she dies, she must find out everything before she dies.
"Mother." A voice called from behind, softer than ever before.
The voice was familiar, yet it felt somewhat strange at that moment.
Princess Shouguang turned around, her face bearing the same gentle and loving smile as always.
"It's Shuxue. Have you had breakfast yet?"
Jiang Shuxue came forward and affectionately took the arm of Princess Shouguang.
"I've eaten. I was thinking of my mother, so I came early this morning to keep her company. How are you feeling, Mother? Are you feeling any better today?"
Jiang Shuxue had never been so close before. In the memory of Princess Shouguang, this daughter had always been cold and reserved towards her, answering only when asked a question, and never taking the initiative to speak so much.
For a moment, Princess Shouguang was a little dazed and also a little uncomfortable.
Her arm, which was being held by Jiang Shuxue, appeared somewhat stiff.
"It's the same as always, but don't worry about it. I'm taking medicine every day, hoping to get better soon and see you get married."
A dream is just a dream. Without verification, in Princess Shouguang's eyes, Jiang Shuxue was still the daughter she had loved for many years.
Thinking that her daughter had chosen a good family, the young master of the Zhong family was twenty years old, renowned for his talent, and had a bright future, Princess Shouguang felt gratified and reached out to tuck a strand of hair that was falling down her daughter's cheek behind her ear.
A hint of rejection flashed in Jiang Shuxue's eyes, and she subconsciously flinched away.
