Chapter 19: This Oldman Is Two-Faced! (2)

Xu Yun Yao washed up and changed clothes with Bi Wen’s help. She didn’t need to be carried anymore. She took Ruan-shi’s hand and strolled on the bluestone path in the garden.

Xu Yun Yao looked at the cheerful brother in front of her. He was unaffected by yesterday’s events. She could not help but admire him.

She might appear a child on the surface, but inside, she was an adult who had endured countless bloodshed. She was even thrown into a poisonous snake nest. A dead snake was not as good as a ground dragon in the dirt.

But Xiao Tang was different. He was a child less than five years old, but he was not afraid of the snake yesterday.

She didn’t know if he was born with boldness, was unresponsive, or was too ignorant to be so fearless.

“Are you tired? Do you want Mother to carry you?” After walking a long distance, she heard Ruan-shi ask softly.

“Not tired.” Xu Yun Yao shook her head.

Yesterday’s incident had made her discover one of her current shortcomings—not running fast enough!

If she ran fast enough, Lord Tang wouldn’t need to help her at all. She would be able to catch up with that stinky boy from the first house.

Regardless of Consort Xu’s previous life, or the current life of ‘Tang Yaoyao’, if she found a deficiency affecting her, she would erase it at all costs.

Have dizziness? Then force yourself to take over the work of killing the chicken and killing the fish! Illiterate? Then find ways to learn and recognize! Can’t dance? Then grit your teeth and forget sleeping and eating!

Didn’t all her hard work pay off in the previous life? From a servant girl who didn’t know her parents and hometown, like a duckling with no roots, she had transformed into a concubine who no one dared to provoke.

If once was not enough, then twenty, thirty! If you wished to stand at the top, you must train yourself to the level of indestructibility!

After hearing what she said, Ruan-shi could only rub her head sweetly. She held her little hand tighter.

The group of few soon walked to the end of the bluestone trail. There, they saw Li-shi approaching.

Li-shi had also noticed them. She walked over and greeted them with a slight smile.

When Zhou’ger saw her, he immediately ran to Ruan-shi’s side. He held her behind him with a small hand and gave a secret glance at Li-shi.

She was the bad guy who had bullied his mother!

Xu Yun Yao was also surprised. This woman was quite something. She was slapped by Mrs. Steamed Bun (her mother) yesterday, yet she still had the face to come here?

She watched Li-shi for a while before moving her gaze away. Her eyes fell on the little girl held by the maid.

The girl looked older than her, about three years old. She was wearing little goose-yellow clothes and looked a little pale from illness.

After yesterday’s incident, Ruan-shi felt a little uncomfortable and awkward. However, she could see that Li-shi’s face looked alright. She couldn’t help but let out a sigh of relief. Though in her heart, she had added a few points of regret.

Her sister-in-law was so generous. Yesterday was indeed her own impulse mistake.

Ruan-shi calmed herself, patted her son’s shoulder gently, and motioned for him to let go. Then she said to Li-shi, “Yu girl looks a lot better.”

“The fever has finally gone down a bit. Therefore, she’s more energetic than yesterday. Seeing the good weather today, I decided to take her to the garden and let her meet her grandmother on the way,” she replied without any hesitation. It seemed that she could not see Zhou’s repulsion and defense against her, as if it was not her who broke into the noisy room yesterday.

“That’s fine. Little Treasure, this is your second sister. Do you remember her?” Ruan-shi pointed to the little girl and asked her daughter with a smile.

Xu Yun Yao froze for a moment. She couldn’t help looking at the little girl carefully. She discerned her features, and it took a while to realize who she was.

It turned out to be her. It had been a long time, and too many people had suffered defeat in her hands. She could hardly remember the girl who had been put on house arrest until her death!

By the way, what was the name of this girl? Tang Yun Yu? Right, she was Tang Yun Yu. As Mrs. Baozi said, she was her cousin.

In her last life, the girl had entered the Prince’s Mansion by virtue of old man Tang Song Nian’s relationship. She became the wife of Prince Zhao Yuanyou. At that time, she was no more than a little servant beside the prince, which was naturally inferior to her.

Looking at this ‘old acquaintance’, Xu Yanyao suddenly developed a strange feeling. She felt like she was still Xu Shufei and could not help but smile at Tang Yanyu.

But the other party just snorted lightly and turned away from her.

Xu Yun Yao wasn’t bothered at all. With a sweet smile still on her face, she screamed, “Sister!”

She had really missed her sister! The last time she met in the Eastern Palace, she had called her so. How did she respond then? She seemed to have sneered at first and then said in disgust, “What kind of cheap servant girl is worthy of calling me sister?”

But on a later day, she was on her knees and kept kowtowing to admit her mistake. She had called her ‘Sister’ in the most miserable manner.

Unexpectedly, in this life, they really became true sisters!

Tang Yun Yu turned her face away and ignored her.

Xu Yun Yao didn’t care, though. She maintained that smile on her face.

It seemed that despite being blood-related, they were destined to be sisters who didn’t like each other!
