Chapter 413
“Miss, are you really going to Third Young Lady’s place? But now…” Huamo looked at Wei Yuejiao’s courtyard hesitantly and advised again.
In her opinion, it was extremely inappropriate for Wei Yuewu to go to the Third Young Lady’s courtyard now. Previously, when Fourth Young Lady went to visit Third Young Lady, they had a dispute and even dragged the matter to the Madam Dowager. Huamo figured that it was not a good time for Wei Yuewu to go there at this time.
“Alright. Let’s go back!” Wei Yuewu took her advice, turned around, and walked back.
In fact, they had already walked to the door of Wei Yuejiao’s Fengyi Courtyard. Even the old maidservant, who was guarding the door, saw them and stood there with her hands down.
“Miss, they saw us!” Huamo widened her eyes and looked at the old maidservant at the entrance of the courtyard. Then, she looked at Wei Yuewu and reminded Wei Yuewu in confusion.
She had actually been persuading Wei Yuewu along the way, but Wei Yuewu wouldn’t budge. Now that they had come to the entrance of the courtyard, Wei Yuewu suddenly decided to leave. Huamo was clueless and could not figure out what Wei Yuewu was trying to do.
However, Huamo had always trusted Wei Yuewu, so despite her doubt, she followed Wei Yuewu and turned around decisively. Then, under the old maidservant’s shocked gaze, they walked away.
Wei Yuewu reminded, “The letter!”
“Oh, yes, Miss!” Huamo hurriedly took two steps forward, and a folded note fell to the ground silently. Then, she suddenly came to her senses, and a smile immediately appeared on her face.
Originally, she thought that Wei Yuewu would directly send this note to the Third Young Lady, and she felt that it was inappropriate. Yet, she had never expected Wei Yuewu to pass the note to the Third Young Lady in such a way.
The old maidservant, who was guarding the door of Fengyi Courtyard, stared in disbelief as she watched Wei Yuewu come with her maid and then leave decisively. She was dumbstruck for a moment and then felt that she’d better report this.
Everyone in Fengyi Courtyard knew that Third Young Lady disliked Sixth Young Lady very much.
“What? Wei Yuewu came and then left? What the hell did she mean by that?” When she heard that Wei Yuewu had actually left immediately after she arrived at her gate, Wei Yuejiao was furious, and she stood up abruptly.
“Yes, Third Young Lady. They came all the way to the door and then suddenly turned around and left,” the old maidservant honestly reported.
“Let’s go and take a look!” Wei Yuejiao was furious.
Previously, after Wei Qiufu came to see her, she was reprimanded by Grandmother. This time, Wei Yuewu had come to the door but didn’t enter her courtyard. Was Wei Yuewu implying that she wasn’t worthy of her sisterhood?
At the thought of this, Wei Yuejiao gritted her teeth in hatred. In her opinion, all the young ladies in this mansion were pretentious and hypocritical. She disliked every single one of them. So, what if Wei Qiufu was elected to enter Crown Prince Mansion? The Crown Prince did not even appoint her as a consort, yet she made it look like her status had suddenly become much nobler.
Not only that, but Wei Qiufu also dared to frame her! Wei Yuejiao was up in arms when she thought of this.
Apart from Wei Yan, no one dared to offend and provoke her. Yet this time, not only the slut Wei Yuewu, but even Wei Qiufu also dared to insult her.
Wei Yuewu was nowhere to be seen outside the courtyard, but a sharp-eyed maid noticed a letter at the spot where Wei Yuewu had stood earlier. She hurriedly said, “Miss, there’s a note over there.”
“Bring it over!” Wei Yuejiao ordered with a gloomy face.
“Yes.” The maid bowed, rushed to pick up the note, and handed it to Wei Yuejiao.
Wei Yuejiao took the note and casually unfolded it. However, when she read the content, her expression changed drastically, and she trembled with rage.
“Where did she go?” Wei Yuejiao crumpled the paper in her hand and asked sternly.
The old maidservant who was guarding the door knew that she was asking about Wei Yuewu, so she pointed in a direction and stammered, “T-T-T-That way…”
“Let’s go! Let’s go take a look!” Wei Yuejiao strode out.
“Miss, Concubine Dong asked you to rest in the yard and not to go out,” Yuzhu hurriedly stopped her although she did not know what was written on the note.
“I’m just taking a stroll. I won’t do anything!” Although she tried to make herself sound calm and composed, everyone could see that she was exasperated.
“Should we go and ask Concubine’s permission first?” Yuzhu asked gingerly as she did not dare to stop her directly.
“Concubine, Concubine! Concubine is all you can say! I’m just planning to take a stroll around the yard, yet I have to ask for Concubine’s permission! Am I your master or not?!” Wei Yuejiao was frustrated at this moment. Yuzhu’s question drove her up the wall, and she bellowed.
Plop! Yuzhu hurriedly knelt down and explained, “You are my master. I will never forget that!”
Wei Yuejiao knew that she shouldn’t vent her anger on Yuzhu, so she calmed down and said, “Let’s go!”
After saying that, Wei Yuejiao turned around and walked in the direction where Wei Yuewu left. She was determined to ask Wei Yuewu about what was going on. Yuzhu’s hands were tied, and she hastily kept up with Wei Yuejiao.
At this moment, Wei Yuewu was sitting in a seat in the pavilion where the sunshine shone and chatted with Jin Ling, who was standing beside her.
The sun shone on her elegant clothes. When one looked from afar, she looked otherworldly gorgeous. Her beauty was so significant and unique that she could be seen at a glance even if she was in the middle of the crowd.
However, Wei Yuejiao loathed her beauty the most. She gritted her teeth and strode over to Wei Yuewu.
In the pavilion, Wei Yuewu seemed to have noticed Wei Yuejiao’s arrival. She turned around and looked at her. There was a trace of clear disgust in her eyes. At this moment, Wei Yuewu stood up as if she was going to leave with Jin Ling through another exit.
“Wei Yuewu, stop right there!” Wei Yuejiao was anxious and roared in a shrill voice.
“Third Elder Sister, what a surprise! They say that you are resting in your room. Why did you come here? You may catch a cold if you come here as it is quite chilly!” Wei Yuewu stopped abruptly and seemed to be surprised to see Wei Yuejiao here.
However, Wei Yuewu made it look as if she was somewhat reluctant to see Wei Yuejiao.
It was clear that Wei Yuewu did not want to see her.
However, Wei Yuejiao was determined to bump into Wei Yuewu right here!
Wei Yuejiao walked over and put on a fake smile. “I heard that you passed by my courtyard but didn’t enter. I especially came after you to see if there was something urgent that you needed to tend to. I didn’t expect you to merely come here to admire the scenery.”
She was implying that Wei Yuewu didn’t care about her injured sister because she wanted to admire the scenery. This news would not be good for Wei Yuewu’s reputation if it spread out.
“I wanted to visit you, Third Elder Sister, but suddenly, I remembered I had something to do, so I planned to visit you next time,” Wei Yuewu said with a smile. The displeasure on her face seemed to have disappeared.
“What’s the matter? Why are you in such a hurry?” Wei Yuejiao held the note in her sleeve and asked proudly.
“Actually, it’s not a big deal. Something happened on Fourth Elder Sister’s side, so I specially came over to take a look. Fourth Elder Sister might come over later,” Wei Yuewu calmly explained.
“Sixth Younger Sister, you’re going to Prince Nan’an Mansion tomorrow, aren’t you?” Wei Yuejiao decided to get straight to the point and sneered.
“Yes, everyone is going other than Fourth Elder Sister, isn’t it? Third Elder Sister, are you feeling better? How is your injury? You’d better not go if you don’t feel well,” Wei Yuewu glanced at her hand casually and said meaningfully.
“Of course, I will go!” Wei Yuejiao gritted her teeth and said. Even though Grandmother had not sent anyone over to inform her at this time, someone should have come over later.
“Speaking of which, Third Elder Sister, your hand hasn’t recovered yet. You have a good reason not to go. Why don’t you just rest at home?” Wei Yuewu suggested softly.
Wei Yuewu sounded as if she was advising Wei Yuejiao, but her gaze was cold and aloof, and there was a bit of provocation in her gesture.
“Don’t worry, Grandmother will let me go. Even if Grandmother is concerned about me and doesn’t let me go, she will let you stay to keep me company. We are biological sisters. Compared with other sisters, we should be closer to each other and support each other, am I right?” Wei Yuejiao said with a fake smile.
However, her words sounded as if she squeezed the words out through her gnashing teeth.
“But… Your hand…” Wei Yuewu’s face was full of concern. In Wei Yuejiao’s eyes, that kind of concern was obviously hypocritical.
“Yes, my hand is injured, but my legs are fine, and I can walk. Also, I can’t lock myself in the yard all day long. I should come out occasionally to breathe some fresh air!” Wei Yuejiao said bluntly.
“Maybe Grandmother won’t agree,” Wei Yuewu said.
“So what? I’m going to visit Eldest Sister. We have a good relationship. When I was in the capital, she took care of me. Now that she’s injured, I should go and visit her.” Wei Yuejiao looked calm and serious. At this moment, she had calmed down. Although the look in her eyes was cold, the expression on her face was natural.
“But… I don’t think it’s a good idea.” Wei Yuewu began to look worried and constantly stole a peek at the road. It was as if she was waiting for Wei Qiufu to appear.
“What’s so bad about that? How do you know about my relationship with Eldest Sister? You just grew up in the countryside. How can you understand the sisterhood of my relationship with Eldest Sister!” The more Wei Yuewu refused to let her go, the more Wei Yuejiao believed the words on the note. Thinking of what the note said, she gritted her teeth even more.
If she didn’t go, she might end up with Xie Qingzhao. Wei Yuewu was so cunning to stop her from going. In her dreams!
Wei Yuejiao didn’t understand what Grandmother and her father were thinking to match her up with the pathetic Xie Qingzhao. Was it because of her identity as a concubine-born daughter?
Thinking of Xie Qingzhao, Wei Yuejiao began to glare at Wei Yuewu in an indignant way. Originally, she was confident that she would become the legitimate daughter after returning to the capital. If it hadn’t been for Wei Yuewu, she would not have had so much trouble now.
To make matters worse, Xie Qingzhao came her way!
Among all the men in the world, Wei Yuejiao hated Xie Qingzhao the most!
“Third Elder Sister, do you know something?” Wei Yuewu sounded somewhat curious.
“Yeah, someone is hiding something from me.” Wei Yuejiao sneered, her gaze burning on Wei Yuewu’s face, wanting to observe the slightest change in her expression.
Wei Yuewu was a cunning and devious slut, so she had to observe her carefully.
“Third Elder Sister, I was joking with you just now. Grandmother confirmed to let me and Fifth Sister go to visit Eldest Sister. Grandmother wants you to rest, so she doesn’t let you go,” Wei Yuewu suddenly smiled and said indifferently.
There was no panic or any intention of hiding the fact. She just looked at Wei Yuejiao calmly. However, her expression made Wei Yuejiao more and more convinced that Wei Yuewu did not mean what she said.
That note was real…
