"Eh? Was she wrong?"

Mrs . Yan shook her head . "She did not do anything wrong . The servants should not have gossiped about their master . They deserved it . However, she hit them so hard that they almost died . If she found them doing something wrong, she could have told the housekeeper . He knew exactly how to punish them for their misbehavior . I found it demeaning for her to take the matter into her own hands . Waihu was unaware of the mistake, so Wushuang stepped in and told her about it . To her dismay, Waihu was quickly offended and hit her, too . If I did not make it there in time, Wushuang could be long dead . I was very angry . Waihu was never an outsider to me . She was like my own daughter, so I had to give her a lesson to prevent her from being criticized for the same mistake . I did not expect her to be so offended that she threw me into the lake . I almost drowned myself . " She described the events vividly with a false account of the facts .

If Gu Xijiu had not seen the incidents from Lan Waihu's dreams, she too would think that it was all her fault .

Lan Waihu's face turned pale . She clenched her fists tightly .

Gu Xijiu kept her countenance and acted surprised . "Waihu has never been so mean before . Did you remember it correctly?"

Gu Xijiu kept her countenance and acted surprised . "Waihu has never been so mean before . Did you remember it correctly?"

Mrs . Yan nodded her head . "How can I be wrong about it? Since then, she has been away from our residence and returned to Tianju Hall instead . She even broke up with Yan Chen . I regretted it terribly! If only I had talked to her more politely, knowing how sensitive a person she was . After all, she was only a child, alone with no parents . "

Gu Xijiu replied, "I would like to know what the servants had said to make her so angry . What did Miss Leng say? What exactly did you say? I would like to listen to the conversations, so I can make a better judgment on which side is right and which is wrong . She always listens to me . We are like sisters, so I am ent.i.tled to teach her a lesson if she does anything wrong . Rest a.s.sured, if she suffers from any kind of humiliation, I will definitely get justice for her . I will not let her grievance be in vain . "

Mrs . Yan looked surprised . She answered with a smile, "All of us said things to vent our anger . Also, it has been a while, how can we still remember the details?" Lovingly, she turned and talked to Lan Waihu . "Waihu, I was in a fit of anger back then, so I must have been very impulsive . My apologies . Will you forgive me?"

Lovingly, she turned and talked to Lan Waihu . "Waihu, I was in a fit of anger back then, so I must have been very impulsive . My apologies . Will you forgive me?"

She acted as though she regarded her misbehavior with kind tolerance, like an elder who decided not to bother arguing with the likes of a reckless child . She was willing to compromise for the general good . Her acting impressed Gu Xijiu .

A woman like her would survive and thrive in the political field . Lan Waihu was definitely not a match for her . No wonder she felt so wronged, like a mute victim in silence .

Lan Waihu's face turned even paler but she still remained quiet .

Mrs . Yan continued, "Waihu, you grew up with us, so you are family to me . Although you have broken up with Yan Chen, you are still a sister to him . You will still be our family . This time, Yan Chen will soon be engaged to Wushuang . I have purposely brought the invitations here to invite you and your friends to their wedding . By the way, I heard that you and Lan Yue are engaged . Lan Yue is an excellent man . I am so happy for you . I also heard that he is a member of Blue Fox Family . What a coincidence, Wushuang's grandmother was once a member of the Blue Fox family, too . It seems like we are going to reinforce our old ties through marriages . All of you should be kind to one another and help each other in times of need . A good relations.h.i.+p is a deed worth praising . "
