Chapter 469: Half-sisters
"They were fighting over who should give the gift to whom over a few pieces of jewelry."
"I feel that I am the eldest legitimate daughter, and I am more noble than those illegitimate sisters."
"Later, I heard that the master was regretful for not having a son. Not to mention a bastard, even an illegitimate child would be fine..."
She was a sentimental person and became melancholy as she recalled the past.
"It turns out that the so-called noble eldest daughter is not as good as an illegitimate child, or even a nephew."
"They take the lion's share, give us a little bit of resources, and then watch us fight among ourselves to please them, and then they slip a little through their fingers, and watch us gloat."
She sneered, "She's a lady from an aristocratic family, but she looks like she's worthless and easy to get rid of."
Bei Jingchu listened quietly to the girl's thoughts, raised her eyebrows slightly, and realized it, not bad, not bad.
But what does this have to do with the fact that I felt sorry for her just now?
Madam Cao then turned the conversation back to her.
"After experiencing all this, I finally woke up from my dream. Your Highness became famous at a young age, and entered the court and was granted the title of Prince when he was still a child."
"I was ignorant at that time, but Your Highness has already awakened."
As she spoke, she didn't know what was going on in her mind. She gently pressed her fingers against her eyes and said with a tearful tone, "I don't know how many injustices Your Highness has experienced in the palace."
Bei Jingchu: “…”
Brain damage is a disease and needs to be treated, really.
The carriage swayed as it moved towards Wu Garden, and Bei Jingchu felt dizzy and confused.
She explained that she really had never experienced any bitterness, she just simply coveted power.
But the girl said obediently, "I understand. Your Highness is slandering himself. The heir must have his reasons."
"Your Highness is so pitiful~"
Bei Jingchu: “…”
I'm so tired...
She held her forehead and said with a headache: "Many celebrities boast of being noble and think that they are upright and superior because they do not pursue fame and fortune."
"People today also wrap their pursuit of fame and fortune in layers of excuses, such as for a good life for their family, for this person, for that person, but never for themselves."
"Or maybe I have to go through some pain and suffering so that I won't let anyone let me down, because only after I've suffered can I have the qualifications and reasons to climb up."
"It's as if admitting that one is born to love power and wealth makes one a vulgar person and inferior to others."
"I don't understand how this kind of atmosphere came about. I just want to make my life better and I haven't committed any crime, so why am I considered a vulgar person?"
Madam Cao was stunned.
Only then did I realize that I had entered a maze again.
Nowadays, people always praise those who are noble and proud, without seeking money or wealth.
Even the heroine in the story does not seek glory or wealth, but only a little true love.
Everyone wants wealth and glory, but they must spit it out of their mouths.
It seems that only those who do not pursue glory are qualified to enjoy glory, otherwise they are people with corrupt character.
But...people always strive for higher things, so why can't they be born to love power and glory?
Madam Cao felt as if her soul had lightened, and some of her past memories began to become clear to her.
Afterwards, Bei Jingchu saw another pair of starry eyes.
"Your Highness' words are truly brilliant. I feel enlightened. You are truly a god!"
Bei Jingchu:?
Therefore, Madam Cao did not feel uncomfortable at all in her life in Wu Garden, and felt that she had close friends everywhere.
Especially with Changyan, I have a lot in common.
Lady Cao: "Your Highness is so kind."
Chang Yan: "Your Highness is so nice."
Madam Cao took her hand, pulled it to her chest, and said excitedly, "Ahhhhh, my dear friend, my dear friend."
As long as you think His Highness is good, we are half-sisters!
Bei Jingchu:?
Why are they all crazy?
