"Is what I'm saying not correct? Even if I hadn't said out loud what your mother had done in the past, everyone had known it anyways. Why hide it? Plus, did you not smiled purposefully at the third prince?"
"I did not!" Xiao Rou was stabbed at where it had hurt the most. The child inside her couldn't help but scream: "You've always been jealous of me because I look more beautiful! My personality is also better than yours. Everyone likes me that's why you're trying to slander me!"
After she had shouted that, the noble ladies and young miss/masters that were nearby all turned around and stared at her.
Xiao Rou's face slowly became red while Xiao Yun smiled as she shook her head. Not saying anything more, she turned around and left.
Such a dumb girl! She's brave but she has no brains, just like Concubine Qin! All they knew was to chat and chat, now they know they were losing faces?
Huang Bei Yue laughed for so long in the pavilion. Like mother like daughter. Concubine Xue and Xiao Yun belonged to the group of people that liked to play tricks. On the other hand Concubine Qin, Xiao Zhong Qi, and Xiao Rou were the types of people who get angry easily and liked to show off.
When the Yin and Yang meet, things were bound to be interesting.
Xiao Rou had been scolded randomly and when she walked over to the pavilion, she saw Huang Bei Yue who sat there faintly smiling. She had held a stomach of anger.
If she wasn't the daughter of a concubine, who dared to ridicule her?
Dong Ling was a clever girl. She looked at Huang Bei Yue and walked up to say: "Fourth young miss, why are you so mad? Even though the second young miss can be unreasonable, but she is still the daughter of someone who came from a village. Fourth young miss, don't be mad over these people. Otherwise, you would be dropping your status down to them."
After that was said, Xiao Rou felt a little better in her heart. Her perspective of Huang Bei Yue was better.
She sat down and took the cup of tea delivered by Dong Ling. She faintly exclaimed: "Third older sister, you had seen her actions too. What benefit does it give to Princess Zhang's prefecture for ruining my mother's reputation?"
"Well Princess Zhang's prefecture isn't that big of a deal, just that sister had been wronged." Huang Bei Yue smiled faintly.
Dong Ling immediately added on: "The fourth young miss is much more beautiful than the second young miss. You have a talent for martial arts. Our Nan Yi country honors martial arts the most. The accomplishments that the fourth young miss makes won't be any less than the second young miss. As long as the reputation isn't bad, in the future for the second lady's marriage, our lady will go ask the Emperor. The marriage won't be any worse than Princess Hong Ling."
Xiao Rou's heart jumped harshly. Not any worse than Princess Hong Ling's…Then she also has hope to become a wife for a prince?
"Third sister, I'm the daughter of a concubine. How would I dare to think that much?" Xiao Rou was impulsive. Her face had revealed how excited she was even though she had worded it humbly.
"What's wrong with being the daughter of a concubine? Nan Yi Country always respected the strongest. Fourth sister, do you not believe in your strength?" Huang Bei Yue calmly stated.
Xiao Rou softly bit on her lips and thought in her heart: If her mother hadn't done that shameful thing in the past, then based on the prime minister's prefecture's influence and her strength, even if she was the daughter of a concubine, she would stand out among the others.
Dong Ling saw her (Xiao Rou's) thoughts and looked towards Huang Bei Yue. Dong Ling stated: "Fourth young miss, you had cried earlier. Your face is dirty. How about this maid goes with you to wash your face."
These aristocratic young misses all value their appearances greatly. Once she had heard that her face was dirty, she immediately became worried and nodded her head quickly.
"Third sister, excuse me for a second."
"Go ahead." Huang Bei Yue peered at Dong Ling. Dong Ling understood and knew what she had to do.
