Liu Shimei crossed the threshold and entered the flower hall, observing the four women inside, their faces all darkened. She felt a sense of satisfaction deep within her.
She couldnt help but think to herself, Well, Ive certainly asserted my authority!
Shimei, how dare you speak like that?
Madam Zhang, seeing her eldest daughter-in-laws displeasure, adopted a stern expression and scolded Liu Shimei. However, she had forgotten that the present Liu Shimei was not someone who could tolerate being scolded.
Liu Shimei tilted her head, saying, Madam Zhang, your words are quite strange. Did I say something wrong? Am I not the designated Princess of Dun Yu? Hasnt Cousin Waner long been betrothed to her fiance? Isnt that a prearranged marriage?
Madam Zhang was suddenly rendered speechless.
Liu Shimei! What does it have to do with you whether I agree to the engagement or not? Waner, infuriated, stood up suddenly, shrieking, Mind your own business! Youve married a fool, and you think youve found a treasure, dont you?
She kept calling him a fool, fool, fool Liu Shimeis eyes turned cold. Her lips curved down, and she retorted, The fiance youve agreed to marry is just a young gentleman from the household of the Minister of Personnel, indeed having nothing to do with me. But, Cousin Waner, who my fiance is, doesnt seem to concern you either, does it? The things you were talking about just now, werent those meddling in someone elses business?
No matter how you looked at it, Zhang Waner had indeed said a lot of insulting words to Liu Shimei. Even if Liu Yaner wanted to help her, she couldnt. No, its not that she didnt want to help, but she didnt dare to!
After all, she didnt want to offend Liu Shimei in the slightest now!
In case Liu Shimei caused trouble, it might really strip her of the crown princess position. The incident with Yu Wanqing was still fresh in her memory it was a lesson from the past!
Moreover, her parents had warned her repeatedly not to provoke Liu Shimei, so she had no choice but to suppress her dissatisfaction for the time being.
Of course, once she became the crown princess, everything would be different!
When Liu Shimei retorted so sharply, Madam Zhang recalled the warnings that Liu Fuyun had given her multiple times about Liu Shimeis powerful connections. She cleared her throat and said, Shimei, it has been a long time since Waner and you met. Its natural for her to have some misunderstandings. Shimei, please forgive her.
Zhang Waner looked at her incredulously and asked, Aunt, I spoke the truth. Why do I need her forgiveness?
Her mother, Madam Wei, frowned and said, Waner, you cant be too aggressive when the Eldest Young Miss is so assertive.
Liu Shimei snorted.
Women from humble families really had no foresight!
They only cared about the present, without thinking about how they would fare in the future!
No worries, she would teach them how to behave!
She looked at Madam Zhang and said, Madam Zhang, when mediating, one should be impartial. I believe you have learned this lesson quite well.
Exaggerating a sigh, she added with a regretful tone, I hope Madam Zhang understands the gravity of the situation. If Im provoked, I might have to go back and tell my father I might reconsider the agreement we made!
Madam Zhang clenched her teeth!
How could she forget that lesson?
How could she not know that Liu Shimei was as unmanageable as a hedgehog?
How could she not know that the Grand Chancellor had repeatedly instructed her to be respectful and keep her distance from Liu Shimei?
In the end, she forced herself to say, her teeth almost grinding to powder, Enough, enough. Young ladies arguing among themselves, let them argue. Let them resolve their own fights. We, as elders, should act like elders.
Liu Shimeis lips curved into a smile, and she glanced at Zhang Waner before saying, Now that Ive met everyone, Ill take my leave!
She turned to leave.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Qingxi grabbed her arm and said, Cousin Shimei, please dont leave yet!
