Wei Yuanniang lay on the carriage and felt the carriage shaking slightly.

Her thin and small body was covered with a thick mattress, which was soft and smelled of sunshine.

Her head was no longer so uncomfortable, and although the wound on her face was still burning, it was much better than the heart-wrenching pain yesterday.

She seemed to have escaped from the gate of hell.

Although the familiar sounds of officers and soldiers shouting and relatives sobbing were still in her ears, she no longer had to walk with difficulty, nor did she have to endure Aunt Zhao's disdain.

Although Aunt Zhao concealed it well, Wei Yuanniang had a feeling that the most useful old nanny around her mother, no matter how much she respected and loved her on the surface, she didn't like her on the inside.

In fact, even her mother, the mistress of the dignified prince's house, didn't seem to like her from the bottom of her heart.

When she was in the Hou Mansion, her mother was very kind to her, and her treatment was the best among the girls of her generation in the Hou Mansion.

However, the honorable treatment does not mean that she is the only and favorite mother.

Not to mention anyone else, it was the child of the Feng family. His mother looked at him with eyes full of love and pity.

Outsiders say that my mother likes Feng Yanting because she is looking up to Aunt Zhao.

But Wei Yuanniang didn't think so. There was always a voice deep in her heart telling her: Your mother really likes Feng Yanting and has nothing to do with anyone else!

After the accident in the Hou Mansion, Wei Yuanniang was frightened, and she followed her mother and Zhao cautiously on the journey to the capital on foot.

Perhaps she was stimulated, or perhaps the environment changed, but Wei Yuanniang felt more and more keenly her mother's dislike and displeasure for her.

And his mother's confidant, Aunt Zhao, also started to slander her.

Wei Yuanniang didn't understand the reason, but she had a vague hunch.

Yesterday, the second sister's biological mother, Aunt Zhu, her mother's favorite dowry maid, was molested by an officer and soldier.

The second sister, who was only three months younger than him, was so frightened that she cried, and Aunt Zhu screamed and resisted.

The cries of the mother and daughter intertwined, deeply irritating the exhausted and desperate people in the Hou Mansion.

The madam was so angry that she almost passed away. Aunt Zhu was no ordinary concubine. She gave birth to a daughter for the Marquis.

If she was insulted by a vulgar and lowly soldier, then Ping Nanhou's face would really be stepped on.

Mrs. Zhang, Wei Yuanniang's mother, her suppressed negative emotions were completely aroused, and she rushed over to pull the officer and soldier regardless.

The second master, the third master and several young masters, all of whom were grown men after all, couldn't bear it any longer. They supported their shaky bodies and joined the battle.

Originally, such a chaotic scene was not suitable for Wei Yuanniang at all.

Wei Yuanniang is young, but she also knows how to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages - to put it bluntly, Aunt Zhu is not her biological mother, so there is no need for her to run to help regardless of herself for a concubine.

She is still a child.

If you really rush in without thinking, not only will you not be able to help, you will also get yourself injured.

Wei Yuanniang wanted to escape, but she was held by Aunt Zhao.

Mrs. Zhang went to tear apart the officers and soldiers, how could her number one confidant stand by and watch?

So, at the first opportunity, Aunt Zhao rushed in.

She only had Mrs. Zhang in her eyes, and she just wanted to run as quickly as possible to protect her master, completely forgetting that she was holding Wei Yuanniang in her hand.

Wei Yuanniang was dragged forward by Aunt Zhao like a broken sack.

Before Wei Yuanniang could stand upright and break away from Aunt Zhao's big hand, Captain Qian rushed forward, whistling with his whip.

The whip was swung straight at Mrs. Zhang. Mrs. Zhang panicked and subconsciously hid behind her.

While she was dodging, she didn't forget to grab the "things" around her and block them in front of her.

"Ah!!" Wei Yuanniang let out a shrill scream, and her whole little body was whipped out by the whip.

pain!

It hurts like crazy!

Wei Yuanniang had never felt such pain before, her fingers and toes curled up in pain.

Then, she was thrown heavily to the ground and passed out.

Wei Yuanniang thought she was going to die, but slowly she woke up again.

After waking up, the first thing I felt was pain. My whole face seemed to be numb and it hurt dull.

Later, Wei Yuanniang found that she was being carried by Aunt Zhao and her face was wrapped in white cloth.

However, her mother is still very cold towards her.

No kindness, no guilt!

Wei Yuanniang is young, but she has a good memory and clear logic.

She knew very well that the reason why she was injured was to blame two people——

First, Aunt Zhao should not have dragged her child into chaos without any care.

No one in the second or third bedroom was seen, and although they took the opportunity to vent, it was only the second master, and the third master rushed out.

The second wife and the third wife both hid behind and took good care of their young children.

Second, as a mother, Mrs. Zhang, when faced with a critical moment, not only sacrificed her life to save her children, she actually used her children as a shield!

Wei Yuanniang remembered clearly that her mother grabbed her and blocked her in front of her.

As a daughter, she "helped" her mother to avoid disasters! According to filial piety, Wei Yuanniang can be regarded as a "filial daughter".

But the problem is, it feels really bad to be forced to be a dutiful daughter.

Well, Mrs. Zhang probably didn't do it on purpose. She was just frightened and in a panic, she grabbed someone at random.

It's just that Wei Yuanniang was unlucky and happened to be standing next to Mrs. Zhang, so——

Wei Yuanniang: ...Bullshit unlucky! If it weren’t for Aunt Zhao, Mrs. Zhang’s most scoundrel, she, she would never have appeared at the scene!

If Mrs. Zhang expressed something to Wei Yuanniang afterwards, such as an apology or compensation.

Even if she didn't have any of these, she could at least explain to Wei Yuanniang: "My mother didn't mean to hurt you, and my mother feels sad too!"

Wei Yuanniang would not be so angry.

However, Mrs. Zhang did nothing. She even refused to hug the injured Wei Yuanniang with her own hands, as if this dying child had nothing to do with her.

The young Wei Yuanniang suddenly developed an emotion called "hate".

What made this hatred reach its peak was when she was in a daze and unconscious state, when she saw a carriage passing by quickly.

On the carriage, the little boy from the Feng family was coquettishly nestling in his mother's arms, being fed sweet snacks by his mother.

For some reason, Wei Yuanniang was completely angry when she caught such a scene.

Another voice emerged from deep in her heart: "Kill Feng Yanting, kill Feng Yanting!"

Classmate Little D: ...No wonder Wei Yuanniang’s darkening will affect the stability of the small world.

This cannon fodder, before he has fully awakened, is only thinking about "killing the male protagonist".

But that was yesterday afternoon.

In the evening, she felt a warm embrace, a doctor specially invited for her, and a bowl of meat porridge that only she had, which temporarily curbed the surging hatred in her heart.

"...Miss, have a drink of water!"

He Tiantian and Feng Yanting pushed the carriage uphill, and then got back on the carriage.

She did not wipe Feng Yanting's sweat and give him water first like the original owner did. Instead, she carefully picked up Wei Yuanniang and said softly while bringing the water bag to her mouth.

Wei Yuanniang's face was wrapped in white cloth, with only two eyes and a mouth exposed.

Her gaze changed from looking up to looking straight down as He Tiantian picked him up.

She clearly saw that when "Gu Xiuniang" took care of herself first, Feng Yanting, who was sitting next to her, had a flash of obvious envy in her eyes.

Wei Yuanniang's mood suddenly improved.

She slowly opened her mouth and allowed He Tiantian to feed her water carefully.

And when Wei Yuanniang took a sip of water and made a gurgling sound when she swallowed.

Wei Yuanniang also discovered that Feng Yanting was licking his lips and swallowing involuntarily.

Wei Yuanniang felt as if her heart was flying on the clouds, drifting and dreaming. The kind of joy could not be described in words.

"Miss, are you hungry? Just tell me what you want to eat! I'll let my husband figure it out!"

He Tiantian reached out and touched Wei Yuanniang's forehead to make sure that her forehead was no longer frighteningly hot, and then she felt relieved.

She asked softly, her voice gentle and loving.

"I want to eat sweet-scented osmanthus cake!"

She remembered very clearly that yesterday Feng Yanting was nestling in Gu Xiuniang's arms and eating sweet-scented osmanthus cake.

"Okay! There are still two pieces in the box, but they are not very fresh. I will find a way to buy them for you when I get to the next stop!"

He Tiantian explained patiently.
