She stood up abruptly, her gaze fixed on Granny Chun as if it were poisoned, causing the woman to take several steps back.
Granny Chun looked completely innocent: "Madam... this old servant just accidentally poked you... please forgive me and don't hold it against me."
Jiang stared at her, panting heavily, until Ma coughed loudly beside her.
Her facial expression gradually relaxed.
"fine."
She said through gritted teeth, "Be more careful next time. Nuo'er is still young and can't withstand what you do."
Granny Chun immediately nodded: "You're right, it's this old servant's fault."
Wei Wei then seemed to notice the conflict between them and said with slight dissatisfaction, "Granny Chun, you must take good care of Nuo'er."
"This child is smart and learns everything quickly. He won't cause you much worry."
Granny Chun replied with a smile, "Don't worry, young mistress, I will take good care of Nuo'er."
Having said that, he smiled and led the person away.
They keep calling him "Nuo'er"! Do they really intend to give their son to an old woman to be her grandson?
Chiang Kai-shek almost vomited blood upon hearing this!
Her hands clenched tightly, as if she wanted to rush forward and take her son back into her arms immediately.
The atmosphere below became awkwardly silent after Noel was taken away.
Wei Wei seemed not to have seen anything, and had someone lead the Ma mother-in-law and daughter-in-law to the courtyard where guests were being received.
"Auntie, you should get some rest. You must be exhausted after walking such a long way."
Wei Wei only let out a cold laugh after the person had disappeared from sight.
These two women look honest, but they are actually more difficult to deal with and more cunning than Ma Bao and his gang.
The child from the previous life arrived late, and it's unknown whether Madam Ma and Madam Jiang really went to the underworld.
Or perhaps the old lady did it on purpose.
Didn't they have that pact of sharing joys and sorrows? Maybe the old lady really wanted to give everything the Meng family owned to her sister's grandson.
The Meng family members all died young in this life, and they saw an opportunity, so they rushed over to try and get a share of the spoils.
That's just wishful thinking!
Even if she were to give away all of the Meng family's assets, she wouldn't leave them a single penny.
——
Wei Wei arranged for Ma's mother and daughter-in-law to temporarily reside in Bishan Courtyard, the furthest courtyard from Tingfeng Pavilion.
She didn't want these two people to come and disturb her peace and quiet all the time.
Although I won't be staying for more than a few days, the sight of it is truly unsettling.
As for Granny Chun, because she had Nuo'er with her, she was also temporarily assigned to stay in the Azure Pavilion next door.
When Wei Wei arrived at the entrance of Tingfeng Pavilion, across the street in the Azure Pavilion, Granny Chun was loudly scolding Nuo'er.
"I will tell you today what you should and shouldn't do."
"You must behave yourself and not eat the bamboo stick."
Noel was a little scared and agreed very carefully.
He must have spotted Wei Wei, because he suddenly ran out from inside.
Instead of approaching, he stood at the entrance of the courtyard and cautiously looked in this direction.
She was a small, thin bundle, looking at him with tears in her eyes.
It contains longing.
He wanted to be with Wei Wei.
He also wanted her to take him away.
That pitiful look reminded Wei Wei of Meng Yanjun, whom she had just taken in. Back then, he loved to snuggle in her arms and call her "Mother."
His voice, soft and sweet, melted her heart.
But what happened next?
As he grew older, he would secretly mock Wei Wei in front of others, saying, "I only do this because I feel sorry for that old woman; otherwise, I wouldn't bother with her."
"That useless woman, I don't know how my father kept her and didn't divorce her?"
"The room reeked of medicine; I felt like throwing up before I even started smelling it!"
These words were like daggers piercing her heart. She turned her head away and walked into Tingfeng Pavilion without hesitation.
Granny Chun had caught up from behind, and was clearly very angry about his disobedience.
The bamboo stick in his hand made a "swish" sound as he swung it.
"You've already forgotten what I just told you? You still want to be the young mistress's son?"
"I think you're just greedy and don't know what's good for you!"
"Hold out your hand right now!"
Noor dared not disobey, and with tears in her eyes, she fearfully stretched out her palm.
The bamboo stick in Granny Chun's hand fell to the ground.
A low sob drifted into Tingfeng Pavilion, but Wei Wei remained unmoved, continuing to work on the account books.
Little Yue'er, unaware of the past, asked, "Is the old lady's sister and her family plotting something?"
"They're so cruel. This child is so young, how can they bear to let him suffer like this?"
Xiao Qiao'er looked at the woman who was engrossed in reading and was afraid that Xiao Yue'er's words would upset her, so she tapped her waist with her finger and whispered, "Don't make a fuss, Miss is busy right now."
Xiao Yue'er could only shut up, her face contorted with emotion before she turned and left.
Wei Wei didn't care.
Although Nuoer was too heartless in her previous life, she is still so young in this life and will never have the chance to become Meng Yanjun again.
The child she once cherished in her heart had long since died the moment she uttered those cold words.
She could not have any contact with him in this life, but she did not object to Xiao Yue'er going to the rescue because she could not bear Chun Mama's harshness.
In this lifetime, nothing has really happened yet, has it?
Xiaoyue is very busy, and her help is only occasional.
During her time at Tingfeng Pavilion, Granny Chun had gotten a general idea of ​​Wei Wei's personality.
Xiao Yue'er would sometimes stop her from disciplining Nuo'er, but Wei Wei never said a word.
So she knew that her master supported her in doing so.
The noise and commotion continued until the second day.
Jiang was reluctant to part with her son, so she came to see him early in the morning.
Wei Wei sipped her delicate porridge and asked someone to set out another set of bowls and chopsticks.
Jiang was very flustered and repeatedly waved his hand, saying no.
Wei Wei didn't insist. She raised her eyes and told Xiao Yue'er to go find Granny Chun and have her bring the person out so that Jiang Shi could see her.
When the person entered the courtyard, they immediately saw that Jiang's eyes were red.
She couldn't wait to rush forward and hug him.
Noel is still very well-behaved.
She didn't cry or make a fuss. Although she was in Jiang's arms, she didn't act coquettishly. Instead, she stared intently at Wei Wei in the main seat.
Jiang carefully observed Nuo'er's body, then suddenly looked at his left hand and asked, "Nuo'er's left hand, is it a little swollen?"
Wei Wei glanced in that direction but couldn't see clearly, so she stopped forcing herself to look.
She smiled lazily and said, "Sister-in-law, are you mistaken?"
Granny Chun also cried out in grievance, "Madam, this old servant has been taking good care of Nuo'er and has never mistreated him!"
