Upon hearing these threatening words, Zhang Mama, no matter how angry she was, had no choice but to suppress it.
She lowered her head and gritted her teeth as she spoke, "What the young mistress says is true. This old servant thanks the young mistress."
Wei Wei nodded in satisfaction and stood there waiting for her to give her opinion.
Zhang Mama could only angrily order, "Guards! Beat these two unruly servants and sell them off, just as the young mistress said!"
The sound of weeping and wailing suddenly grew louder.
The other women dared not risk getting themselves into trouble, so they naturally worked tirelessly.
The outside was chaotic, and Wei Wei felt dizzy from the noise. With Xiao Yue'er's help, she turned around and went into the house.
She was exhausted and collapsed onto the chaise lounge as soon as she entered.
Xiao Yue'er knelt before her, kowtowing to her with a red and swollen face.
"This servant thanks you so much, Miss, for saving my life!"
"But that bracelet... I really didn't steal it!"
Wei Wei gave a faint "hmm": "I know, they deliberately want to kill you."
These words made Xiaoyue'er's eyes widen, and her body began to tremble uncontrollably.
"Why?"
She heard the question emanating from Xiaoyue'er's soul and closed her eyes tightly.
What they are after is a wolf's ambition.
It is the secret treasure of Tianxue Mountain that sent them to the heavens!
--
Legend has it that a wealthy merchant from the previous dynasty fell in love with the emperor's concubine and was willing to spend his entire fortune to spend a night with her.
This also touched a nerve with the emperor.
The imperial merchant was hunted down by the emperor's men, but he barely escaped with his life, barely clinging to life with all his wealth.
But ultimately, the damage to the body has been severed, and life is nearing its end.
Finally, with no other choice, he hid his enormous wealth inside the Tianxue Mountain.
The key—the dragon and phoenix jade pendant—is in the possession of his descendants.
The surname Wei was changed to Wei, and they fled for over a hundred years.
Eventually, their hiding place was discovered to be in Loucheng!
If she hadn't met the woman surnamed Wei who had suffered the same fate, she would never have known the whole truth, even until her death.
The person she loved with all her life turned out to be the root of her lifelong nightmare!
Wei Wei's voice was hoarse: "If you want to know why they treated you this way, then live well, be careful, and live to the end. Only then will everything become clear."
She looked at the maid who had been with her for ten years, who was bold, meticulous, and extremely loyal.
However, she died on the third day after marrying into the Meng family.
"Little Yue'er, do you believe me?"
Her voice was like a gentle breeze, like a sigh.
"This servant believes."
Wei Wei smiled: "That's good. I'm a little tired, you go and wash up and rest, and let Xiao Qiao'er guard the gate instead."
Xiao Yue'er couldn't understand her words, but she had just been saved from the brink of death by her young mistress, so she would obediently listen to her.
Only when her injuries heal can she avoid having worked for nothing.
Little Moon obediently withdrew.
Wei Wei was unwell and fell asleep without realizing it. When she woke up, she heard Xiao Qiao'er's voice outside the door.
"Young Master," she called out.
Wei Wei heard the door being pushed open, and Meng Zhixuan walked in, bypassing the screen.
He was tall and handsome.
But no one knew that this was nothing more than a wolf in sheep's clothing!
The quiet room made Wei Wei's face on the chaise lounge appear even paler.
He stepped over, gently patted her head with affection, and asked softly, "Did you have a disagreement today?"
Wei Wei nodded listlessly, her tone honest and guilty: "I made Zhang Mama angry in my haste just now."
No one knew better than Granny Zhang how the bracelet ended up in Xiaoyue'er's room.
Of course, she had no intention of making things up.
"Xiaoyue'er is the most important person to me. I can't let her be beaten to death in front of me."
"If she were to die on the third day after I married into the family, how would others view us?"
Meng Zhixuan's gloomy eyes, hidden in the shadows, warmed slightly after hearing those words.
The words that came out were both affectionate and disappointed: "She's the most important person to you, but am I not?"
Wei Wei suppressed her disgust and nodded, casually brushing his hand away from her head: "Why are you jealous of a maid?"
"Aren't you ashamed?"
Meng Zhixuan chuckled softly a few times: "Of course I'm jealous of the maid, I'm the most important person to you."
Wei Wei felt like she had swallowed a fly; she was so nauseous she was about to vomit.
She pursed her lips tightly, suppressing her feelings, before tugging at his sleeve: "Let's let today's matter pass."
"From now on, I will definitely do my best to keep them in check."
Meng Zhixuan would certainly agree; he wanted to be the perfect husband.
Seeing that he had agreed, Wei Wei smiled and started talking about returning to her parents' home: "I was supposed to go back today, but I was delayed because of health reasons. Although I sent someone to tell them, I'm still not at ease."
"Shall we go back together tomorrow?"
She looked at him with innocent eyes, full of expectation.
Meng Zhixuan, let's have a competition to see who has the better acting skills.
Meng Zhixuan shook his head with difficulty. "I have an urgent matter tomorrow. How about the day after tomorrow?"
Wei Wei knew he had something to do tomorrow.
He said he would get it done as soon as possible, but he didn't return until late at night.
It was quite a few days later before I had the chance to go back.
That trip was also the last time she saw her parents.
Not long after, they got into trouble.
Wei Wei felt like her heart was being slowly sliced apart, but a understanding smile appeared on her lips: "Go ahead and do what you need to do. I'll be fine going back alone."
"How can this be allowed?"
Meng Zhixuan immediately refused, saying, "Your health isn't good, I'm worried about you."
