Chapitre 139: A start of something beautiful

Su Liya looked up as Madam Jiang got closer and stood in front of her table. Madam Jiang had heard a few things about this new Princess since she arrived at the capital a week and a half ago. After all, she heard. She was not impressed with this social climber. Madam Jiang came from an old aristocratic family whose lineage went down till the establishment of northern Wei.

Members of this type of family were very strict about genealogy. To her the fact that Su Liya, a mere maid could marry a man of noble birth like Lu Yaozhu as the principal wife was a disgrace. It was an abnormality that should never have been. She believed strongly in the old ways and would never associate herself with a person of low birth like Su Liya.
