An ugly girl starts off, then becomes a beauty

Even if he is learning to be the head of the family and training his subordinates step by step, what the future will be like is still an unknown.

In the end, we can only take things one step at a time. If something else happens in the future, revenge may drift to a different place.

Now that she had figured out what Nie Guang meant to her, she simply cut off the source of the trouble and alienated the two masterminds behind the scenes. As for the murderous servant, it would be a matter of convenience to deal with him later.

Although this move is risky, it is the most direct.

"Ma'am...if you want to do it, then do it."

Unexpectedly, Cheng Mu did not stop it. After hesitating for a while, she immediately understood the meaning and even agreed directly.

Even Sang Ling was shocked. She had thought about it thousands of times in her mind - this was a very bad plan that involved herself, and no one would agree to it.

"Why didn't you stop it?" she couldn't help but ask, the words coming out of her throat dryly, even with a little trembling.

The smoke from the cigarettes in the back room blurred the light and shadows in front of her eyes. She saw Cheng Mu's bitter smile through the mist in front of her eyes.

"If you were to continue to endure this pain and wait for this hopeless period, you wouldn't be able to bear it."

"So if you want to do it, just do it."

"I watched Ya-nu grow up, too. How could I not hate her?"

The night wind in front of the hall stopped at some point, and the oil lamp light became particularly bright, illuminating the two figures beside the couch. Sang Ling was stunned for a long while, then he frowned and closed his eyes, and the tears that were circling in his eyes fell straight down.

She was not unaware of the extent of the risk involved, but she chose to tell Cheng about it now. To put it bluntly, she was just looking for an outlet to release her emotions - to pull out the hatred and tit-for-tat shadow deep in her heart and vent her anger.

Even if it means bringing disaster to oneself, even if it means digging one's own grave.

It would be a thousand times more satisfying than being helpless like now.

But she never thought that Cheng Ai would support her in doing so.

The thoughts in her mind suddenly surged like the tide, but even if she had thousands of words to say, she didn't know how to express them.

I could only sit up straight and rest my head on Cheng's shoulder.

After a while, a sigh was heard.

Early the next morning, Sang Ling went to Yunyue Pavilion on time as usual.

Although the accounting work is gradually coming to an end and will only be settled at the end of the year, as the future head of the household, I still have a lot to learn.

In the morning, he followed Xing and Shi to look through the list of slaves in the two mansions in the personnel book. At noon, he casually set up a table in the back room and had a meal with three dishes and a soup.

In the afternoon, Madam Zhaoyu went back to the palace, so Sang Ling did not stay in Yunyue Pavilion any longer.

This matter must be done as soon as it is said. If you want to do it in one go and without any mistakes, it is best to seize opportunities.

She did not go back to Wuyuan directly as usual. After crossing the covered bridge, she took Cheng Ai for a stroll in the back garden of Jingsiju.

From then on, every time I came out of Yunyue Pavilion, I took this path.

This time is not fixed. Sometimes, if the schedule is not too tight in the early morning, I will walk to the corridor beside the central courtyard. Sometimes, I will take a leisurely walk behind Jingsi Residence while digesting food after dinner. Or I will go there to enjoy the scenery around 3 p.m.

During the day, the Second Young Master's wife always finds time to stay in various places in the mansion.

So I would always run into Nie Guang by chance.

But in the first few days, I only saw his cat, but not him.

Sang Ling was able to remain patient. He watched from a distance but did not come over. It was not until the third day that he brought some chicken breasts and fish, and was finally able to touch the little fat ball.

Even though cats are not as friendly as dogs, they can always inspire genuine love and affection because of their faces that resemble babies. The love that Sang Ling showed when playing with cats came from the bottom of his heart.

No one knew which day Nie Guang came, but Sang Ling had never seen him in person.

If Cheng Mu hadn't been so careful, the master and servant would never have noticed that there was a person standing behind a tree not far away.

"What are you doing standing there, brother?"

After feeding the cat for several days, Sang Ling was already able to hold the little cat in his arms. Nie Guang raised the corner of his mouth, but the smile on his face was still cold.

Although it was a smile, the expression was so chilling that it made one's bones shiver.

She suppressed the inexplicable fear in her heart.

"It is close to you." Nie Guang turned his eyes to the cat.

There weren't many cats and dogs in the mansion, especially in the East Mansion, because Cai's beloved son Nie Yu was afraid of cats and dogs, so no one in this area kept these things. Only Nie Guang dared to lead the cats to run here from time to time.

"My aunt's family also has cats, and there is a white one in the garden where I live." Sang Ling glanced at the person opposite him, and while speaking, he covered his eyes with his eyelids.

This unintentional shy look couldn't help but make Nie Guang's heart move.

There is no one in this world who is not lustful, especially men. There are many who are fickle, and he thinks it is a very common thing. Even if it is his brother's wife, so what? Everyone has a love for beauty. The girl of the Sang family is like this, and even the male elders in the family can't take their eyes off her, let alone him, who is of the same generation.

I actually thought about it before, but I felt that it was not the best time yet, so I just watched from afar.

But when Nie Ce died, she would remain a widow... and when the affairs of the two prefectures were completely managed by the West Prefecture, he could take in Sang just like he took in Zhang.

Seeing that Nie Guang did not reply for a long time, Sang Ling raised his eyes slightly and stared at him, "Cousin?"

The girl's tone was like a soft feather, gently floating into the heart of the person opposite, tickling him. Nie Guang involuntarily took two steps closer.

"It's called Treading Snow." His voice unconsciously became deeper.

This piece of meat has really been dangling in front of my eyes for too long.

"Yellow body, white belly, and four hooves stepping on the snow. It's a good name." Sang Ling then smiled.

Cheng Ai, who was following behind, understood and immediately retreated to the corridor.

Wei Chu also followed Sang Ling out today. Although the little girl didn't understand the meaning of this, when she saw Cheng Lao gave the two masters space to talk, she immediately stepped back and stood at the wall of the corridor.

This is one good thing about Wei Chu. Although he is young, he knows how to behave in society.

There is no need to understand some things too clearly. Just watch how Cheng Ao acts and you can quickly catch up without lagging behind at all.
