"I heard from me that when she was six years old, you loved to drink West Lake Dragon Geyser that Madam Xiao had soaked in snow.

That day, the snow fell so heavily that the entire capital became a vast expanse of white. She, this silly girl, before the sky brightened, she had already secretly crawled up and, with a glimmer of light, ran to the courtyard with a bowl and scooped up a bowl of snow, then ran back into the house and poured it into the water tank. Afterwards, she ran out again, scooped up another spoonful, and then put it into the water tank.

She was still so small, and had fallen who knows how many times. Her body was covered with snow, and once it melted, her clothes would be soaked through. By the time I found out, her hands were red and swollen, and her fingers were as thick as carrots.

My heart ached and I was angry. I scolded her, but she just smiled foolishly and said...

Mother, don't be sad. We have snow, and Longjing. Father will come to us.

However, when she, a child not yet as tall as the kitchen counter, boiled her own snow water, brewed her own tea, and excitedly brought it to your study, it just so happened that Auntie Xiao and Ya'er also made some snow water and Longjing for you to drink, and you and them were in high spirits.

He turned around and saw Yue'er with a straight face, asking her why she didn't follow the rules of a noble family, making a mess of the courtyard early in the morning, and even ordering her to hurry back to her own courtyard.

As the First Lady spoke, she took Lian Yue's hand and painfully shed tears. "Because this time, the snow has frozen my hand, so every year in the winter, my hand will grow frostbite, and I can't leave the warm stove. If I don't protect myself, I will get red and swollen, and my fingers will itch when I'm in the most pain.

Old master, you probably don't remember any of these.

No, it's not that you don't remember, it's just that you never put it in your heart!

"Yue'er, my Yue'er, it was mother who let you down, it was mother who let you down."

As the First Wife spoke, her face was covered in tears. She tightly held Lian Ru Yue's hand, her heart filled with guilt and pain.

When Lian Meng heard the first wife's words, his heart felt like it was being pierced by needles. At that time, he was still young, so he didn't know about this. He looked at Lian Ruyue's cold face with a sad expression.

Originally, these memories had long since been obliterated by the unbearable pain and torment of her previous life. Compared to the pain of having her body cut off and her family being destroyed, this bowl of Longjing Stronghold isn't worth mentioning in Lian Ruyue's eyes. However, looking at her mother's tears, she finally recalled the events of the past.

She still remembered that when she carried that cup of tea out of Lian Yanqing's study, Aunt Xiao followed her and said:

Eldest Miss, don't be sad, I will have a good talk with the old master and he won't be angry with you. Go back today, come to Clear Spring Academy tomorrow, I will teach you how to brew the tea that the old master likes to drink.

At that time, she was too pure, so she couldn't see the conspiracy in her beautiful eyes. She was even grateful for her understanding.

Stupid!

Too stupid!

Even Ru Yue's heart was already as firm as a steel. Even after her rebirth, she didn't have any illusions about her father, Yan Qing.

She only knew how to continuously fight with Xiao Xianmin and Lian Shiya!

She only knew that she had to avenge her previous life!

She only knew that those who had failed her must die a horrible death!

As for who Lian Yanqing's heart was with, she didn't care at all. What she had not obtained in her previous life, how could she ask for it in her current life?

At this moment, the first wife's heart-to-heart words had inadvertently touched her heart that was already riddled with holes...

Actually, she wasn't feeling sad for herself, because she was already used to feeling hurt. Even if she took out a knife and forcefully stabbed the tip of her heart, even if she was bleeding profusely, she wouldn't feel any pain.

But she felt heartache for her mother! Not worth it!

Although her mother was clearly the legitimate wife, and Xiao Xianmin had secretly fallen in love with Lian Shiqing because of the difficult situation they were in, Yan Qing only doted on Xiao Xianmin as his concubine. He showed more pity and tolerance towards her, and also felt much love for Lian Shiya.

What about her mother?

The dignified and distinguished eldest young miss of the Rong Country Palace, the most beloved daughter of the Duke of Rong Country, had actually been ridden on the head by a mere concubine for more than ten years! How was he going to settle these debts?

The Grand Matron's words made the scene quiet down. Even her mother sighed softly, and the words stabbed deep into her heart.

Even Yan Qing's usually cold face twitched a few times, an unknown emotion flashing through his eyes.

It was as if she was used to Lian Yan Qing's bias and neglect. A slight smile appeared on her face as she said, "Mother, there's no need to worry about Yue Er. I'm fine."

With that, she looked at Lian Yanqing with her eyes as if she wanted to look deep into his heart. "Father, right or wrong, there is always justice, and the daughter has a clear conscience. If the father insisted on punishing her, the daughter would not complain at all, but the father must not blame the mother for this.

"Yue Er …" Lian Yan Qing's heart slightly shook. He wanted to say something, but Lian Ru Yue had already turned around and returned to the First Wife's side. She no longer looked at him.

The first wife also held Lian Ruyue's hand. She only looked at her daughter and no longer looked at Lian Yanqing. Her heart was usually like this …

"Who wants to punish you? Who dares to punish you! " Lian Mu suddenly hit the ground with her crutch and said, "The ones that deserve punishment will be punished, the ones that deserve punishment will not be scolded!" I will never allow such a thing to happen again in the Prime Minister's Estate! "

"This …" Aunt Xiao suddenly discovered that everyone had unknowingly been infected by Lian Ru Yue's emotions. They felt injustice for her and felt sorry for her. No, she wanted to break this atmosphere!

Lian Ruyue, this crafty person, where did she get the true feelings from? Everything that happened today was planned by her.

"No, no, master, the jade bracelet was not given by the third miss, it was stolen. How could the third miss have the guts to let a young maid lie in front of the master? Does that make any sense?" Aunt Xiao tried to speak up for Lian Shiya, but her mother sternly yelled at her:

"Shut up!" What is your identity? How could you have the right to speak in front of a lady who's not even fit to be a teacher?! What are you talking about? Are there any rules? "Retreat!"

"…" Even his mother had mercilessly reprimanded her, so she could only swallow her words!

"How dare you!" Speak! What was going on with the golden bracelet? If there is even the slightest of falsehood, I will personally go and pull out your tongue, break your limbs, and say it! "

Even her mother had never spoken such harsh and frightening words! It was clear that she was serious this time!
