She didn't want her daughter to suffer but she let Ye Jian bear the groundless accusations.
Ye Jian stared at Mother Yao with a dark gaze. Mother Yao was an official but she neglected her morals. Ye Jian opened her mouth and said calmly, "Only evil-minded people will think that other people are evil too. They always think that other people will do bad things just like them and be in a constant state of anxiety because of it. Once something really happens, they will jump out immediately and reprimand other people righteously, saying that they are the evil ones instead."
In front of Mother Yao, Ye Jian's expression was so indifferent as if she was looking at a rogue throwing a tantrum. She wouldn't make a fuss but she wouldn't give in so easily too. Her voice was calm but the words were so sharp it caused Mother Yao's heart to scrunch up in pain.
