“It’s all their fault! It’s his fault! He used those women to provoke me and turn them against me! Why should I treat them kindly? Why!” Third Madame cried out, her hands covering her face.
Auntie Ling had dismissed Yuzan and the others, but she couldn’t help feeling saddened. She wiped her eyes and said, “Madame, we are women, and men can be quite unpredictable. You must gather yourself and think about what Elder Miss should do!”
Third Madame’s face contorted with anger as she fiercely declared, “I will never forgive that woman! She’s delusional if she thinks she can marry Young Master Ning! Old Master blames me for not raising my daughter well, but what about Concubine Du? Is she doing a great job? How dare she steal her own sister’s fiancé! Shameless!”
Auntie Ling hesitated before speaking, “But Madame Qiao, the marriage has already been settled, so…”
“And so what?” Third Madame sneered. “I am the birth mother, and I have a say in this marriage! I deeply regret it! How could I have allowed them to continue? I should have strangled them when they were young. No, I should have prevented their existence altogether! I deeply regret it, I deeply regret it…”
Third Madame was overwhelmed, her anger burning within her.
She had regretted so many times before, yet with each passing instance, her regret only grew stronger.
Fate had been cruel to her.
Auntie Ling couldn’t help but sigh inwardly. Regret was the word Madame Qiao used most frequently. But what else could be expected? If she were in Madame Qiao’s position, she too would be filled with regret.
Of the two concubine’s daughters, one had always been meek since childhood, while the other constantly sought the favor of Madame Qiao and Elder Miss, behaving worse than a servant.
But these two daughters, whom Madame Qiao and Elder Miss regarded as no better than animals, had completely overturned their lives.
A farmer who married into a farmer’s family had risen to become a prominent scholar, an officer, and even caught the Emperor’s attention. She made significant contributions and received praise and rewards from the court. She was in the spotlight!
The other daughter was even worse—she had stolen Elder Miss’ marriage and caused Elder Miss to lose her composure in front of everyone, tarnishing her image and reputation. What would happen in the future?
Those two incidents were not the end of it. Young Master, who had a promising future, had also been demoted, and it was the Emperor himself who personally issued the demotion. Madame Qiao couldn’t bear the thought of it.
No one would dare to promote Young Master without the Emperor’s approval. Absolutely no one.
If Qiao Wei could marry into the Marquis of An’s Mansion, perhaps there would be a chance to rectify the situation. But if it were Qiao Kou who got married, Madame Qiao would be powerless to help Young Master. It would be a humiliation!
Madame’s life was filled with misery!
Auntie Ling felt a deep sorrow and sighed. However, there was nothing she could do but offer some futile words of consolation to Third Madame Qiao.
Third Madame’s expression kept shifting as she stared into the empty space before her, seemingly alternating between listening to Auntie Ling’s words and drifting into a trance-like state.
