Watching the backs of Su Xinyi and Mrs. Gao, Duchess Wu'an sneered, "Look at that smug expression, if it weren't for your lack of effort back then, how could it be her turn to bask in the limelight now?"
Pei Nianwei had heard such words too many times already and still found them annoying to hear. Gritting her teeth, she couldn't help but retort, "You went to great lengths to send You Xiangrui to become Princess Xiang, but how did she repay you? Instead of lecturing your daughter here, why not go and catch up with Princess Xiang about family matters?"
Pei Nianwei was truly fed up. Since she hadn't been able to enter the Eastern Palace, her family's treatment of her had been worlds apart, which she had endured, but she simply couldn't tolerate the mockery still being added to her troubles to this day.
Hadn't they pinned their hopes on You Xiangrui?
