Chapter 106 She seems to like this little daughter
The two brothers sang in unison, which made the maid under the eaves frown.
Xu Miaomiao followed up with a cry, "Mother-in-law, you haven't seen me since I married into your family! I'm not asking you to pay me for changing my name, nor am I asking you to take care of me during my confinement. I only ask you to make peace with my father-in-law and to keep our family peaceful!"
Wen Yueyin's face was filled with tears. "Mother, please open the door and look at us! Even if you suffered great injustice in the past, that's all in the past. We won't hold you accountable for abandoning your husband and children and marrying into a wealthy family. Can't you learn from our tolerance and forgiveness and show some leniency to father?!"
The two maids guarding under the eaves rolled their eyes almost to the sky.
I've seen ungrateful children, but I've never seen someone so ungrateful as this!
Miss Mingming Luo is a pretty normal person, why are her brothers and sisters like crazy?
Marrying a wife is also the same as having a brain problem!
Seeing that they were about to continue arguing, Wen Xingluo appeared under the eaves, "Mother is already in poor health, what is your intention in making such a fuss and forcing her?!"
"Wen Xingluo?" Wen Ruyun was displeased. "What are you doing here?"
Wen Xingluo said coldly, "I'm here to have dinner with my mother."
Wen Yueyin held her handkerchief to her nose and chuckled, "My little sister is full of lies. Mother has disliked us since we were little. She won't even let us greet her, let alone have a meal with her."
In her previous life, when she was in the palace, she never came to see Wei Si.
Because even if Wei Si came, she would not see her.
She actually didn't understand Wei Si at all.
She is clearly just an orphan, and no one knows where she came from. She is of humble origin. Why does she look down on their father in every possible way?
After all, my father is a county magistrate!
Wen Ruyun also said, "We are unlucky to have such an irresponsible mother! Fortunately, our father loves us. I heard from Yue Yin that he is likely to be promoted to the position of Chief Clerk of the Prefectural Governor's Mansion. Yesterday, he specially sent someone to pick us up and take us to Yangcheng. It is obvious that he wants to bring us to prominence. Wen Xingluo, father must not have called you, right?"
Wen Xingluo looked at the smugness on their faces and curled his lips, "How can I serve as an official when I'm guilty?"
Not to mention that Wen Qingsong is now a criminal, even if Mu Shangming distorts the facts to clear his name, she will take advantage of this trip to Yangcheng to kill that waste and will never give him the opportunity to be an official again!
Wen Yueyin laughed and said, "Little sister, you don't understand. Power is the best thing in the world. As long as you have power, you can call a horse a zebra and say black is white. As the governor, it is very simple for you to overturn your father's verdict. But unfortunately, this time, the one who enjoys the glory and wealth with your father will no longer be you, little sister."
Wen Xingluo smiled, "I'll just follow my mother."
Wen Ruyun said impatiently, "I've told you so many times that Mother doesn't love us at all. Only Father is our support. Wen Xingluo, you don't think you'll be an exception, do you?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the lattice door behind Wen Xingluo was pushed open from the inside.
The woman who appeared in everyone's sight had cloud-like hair and mist-like hair as red as pear blossoms, and she was otherworldly and ethereal with a pearly halo, like Chang'e in the moon who was detached from the world.
Even though Wen Rufeng and others had seen Wei Si countless times, they still felt breathless when they saw her again today.
Their mother is stunningly beautiful.
Whether in their childhood or now, their mother's appearance and demeanor are what they brag about to outsiders.
It's a pity that she doesn't love them...
Amid their increasingly shocked gazes, Wei Si picked up the cloak hanging from her arm and gently draped it over Wen Xingluo's shoulders.
She took the girl's hand and said, "It's windy in late autumn. Why is Ningning standing under the eaves?"
Although she gave birth to five children, she did not know how to be a mother.
But she thought that just like her mother had supported her back then, it would probably be right to stand up and support Ningning.
So, she plucked up her courage and stepped out of the room for the first time.
Wen Xingluo looked closely at her eyebrows and eyes.
After making sure that she was not timid or afraid, and guessing that she was not scared by Wen Rufeng and others, he felt relieved.
She arched her eyebrows and snuggled up to Wei Si's side obediently, "Mother..."
She called out tenderly, glancing at Wen Yueyin with a look full of provocation.
When they were young, Wen Rufeng and Wen Yueyin always liked to act out the father-son love drama in front of her.
She stood alone in the corner, watching the loving father and filial son, and the deep love between father and daughter, and could only helplessly tug at the corner of her tattered clothes.
She put on a flattering smile and walked up to her father, wanting to act coquettishly, but she was always severely scolded and insulted by her father, which made her smile freeze on her face. With tears rolling down her cheeks, she looked like the funniest clown in the family.
And now, it seems that she can make these four people taste the pain and grievances she suffered in the past.
She flaunted her arm around Wei Si, as if Wei Si was her only mother. "Mom, I'm hungry! I heard Dad recently found a pastry chef from Jiangnan for you. The sweet-scented osmanthus chestnut cake he makes is the most delicious. I want two pieces—no, three!"
The little girl was acting coquettishly, but Wei Si could clearly see the domineering look on her little face.
Her little daughter is braver and more decisive than her.
She seemed to like this little daughter.
She imitated the way her mother treated her in the past and gently tapped Wen Xingluo's nose in a coquettish manner.
The two entered the house.
The lattice door slowly closed in front of everyone.
It was not until half a cup of tea had passed that Wen Yueyin suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
She was pale and couldn't believe it. "How...how could this happen?"
Why would their shameful, sickly mother show up in public just for Wen Xingluo?!
Why did it have to be... Wen Xingluo? !
What about her? What is she in her mother's heart? !
If it was Wen Xingluo's filial piety that touched her mother, then she obviously cared about her mother too. It was just that when she was a child, she went to pay her respects to her many times but received no response, so she gradually became estranged from her.
When Daddy scolded Mom, she felt distressed, but it was Mom's fault for not knowing how to please Daddy. She deserved the punishment. Maybe if she was punished enough, she would be more friendly to Daddy and her...
Wen Yueyin's lips trembled as she stared at the lattice door blankly.
Although she looked down on Wei Si's background, it didn't mean that Wei Si could bypass her and love Wen Xingluo!
The father is hers, and the mother should be hers too!
She is the most favored daughter of the Wen family!
The maid said in a deep voice, "Also, Miss Xingluo has ordered that none of you may ever set foot in the Zhenbei Palace again! Otherwise, don't blame the guards for beating you out with sticks! Everyone, please?"
She gestured to see the guest off.
Wen Rufeng questioned, "What do you mean by 'Young Lady has an order'? How can a girl like Wen Xingluo be the head of the Zhenbei Palace? If we talk about closeness, I am my mother's eldest son. Like Wen Xingluo, I call the Zhenbei Prince my father. If she can be the head of the Zhenbei Palace, then so can I!"
After he said that, he straightened his back and stood up, lifting his robe in an airy manner.
