Aunt Lian was like a victorious rooster. She pinched her waist, looked at Chunyu coldly, and spat secretly.

After Chunyu closed the door, Aunt Lian continued, "That's right, Qing'er, I am your mother and I won't harm you. You have to be obedient. The eldest lady asked you to accompany the eldest lady to the palace because she likes you."

Ji Wanqing sneered, "Heh...are you interested in me?"

"Yes, you see, there are so many concubines in the mansion that the eldest lady didn't like, but you. The eldest lady specifically instructed that you be allowed to enter the palace to accompany the eldest lady."

"Auntie, please don't say these high-sounding words. I know what you are thinking. Don't pretend in front of me. You have a hard time with the eldest lady, but have you ever thought that your daughter's life is also difficult? Is what Chunyu said just now wrong? If I really enter the palace, I will never be able to leave. Don't you worry about me at all? Do you really want to abandon me like this for yourself?"

Aunt Lian was also angry when she heard her talk like this. She pointed at her and cursed, "You damned girl! If I hadn't given birth to you, I wouldn't be controlled by others and have to depend on my wife's mood every day. Now I let you into the palace is entirely for your own good, but you still don't know what's good for you. If I had known earlier, I would have drowned you in your chamber pot."

Ji Wanqing sneered disdainfully, "Oh, I actually wish you had killed me when you gave birth to me, so I wouldn't have to live such a miserable life for so many years. Outsiders may think I'm arrogant and domineering, but you're my biological mother. Don't you know what kind of life I've been leading?"

Aunt Lian wanted to speak, but before she could finish her words, Ji Wanqing spoke first:

"No, you know, you only care about protecting your own interests, and because you want to please the eldest lady, you pushed me out to protect Ji Wanxing from disaster."

"You said that no other sisters have this honor. That's because other aunts are not like you. They know that their children are their closest relatives."

Aunt Lian wanted to argue a little, but Ji Wanqing didn't give her a chance and continued:

"Why did you give birth to me back then? It was simply because you wanted to gain a position in the Duke of Ji's mansion. Unfortunately, I'm not a man, so you couldn't fulfill your wish."

"Outsiders only think that you've been oppressed by the Madam and forced to be a servant every day. In reality, you just want to use this opportunity to show off in front of your father and catch his attention. Unfortunately, the Madam is not stupid. She didn't give you such an opportunity."

"You, you are talking nonsense, I didn't do that." It was the first time that Aunt Lian saw Ji Wanqing being so aggressive. She was speechless for a moment, and a trace of fear rose in her heart.

She didn't know what the dead girl would say next.

Ji Wanqing ignored her and continued, "When your plan failed, you pushed me out to take the blame for Ji Wanxing. You said you were relieving the Madam's worries, but in reality, you just wanted to let Father see your big belly to win his favor. Unfortunately, you missed the mark again."

Aunt Lian couldn't sit still when she heard this. "You, shut up, I didn't, I didn't, it's obviously because you are not likable, I didn't push you out, it's not..."

Ji Wanqing still ignored her, as if she wanted to tell him all the grievances she had endured over the years. "Over the years, you've been talking about how much you've suffered because of me. Do you know that it was because of your selfishness and cleverness that you thought you had hidden it from everyone, but in fact, the eldest lady had all the evidence against you. How did you think you got away with secretly lending money at high interest?"

"That's because of me. I took the blame for Ji Wanxing chopping off the fifth prince's horse's leg at the horse farm, and that's why you're safe."

"Also, do you know why the child you killed Aunt Qiao was able to survive?"

"It was also because of me, the five-year-old me, that I took the blame for Ji Wanxing's murder of Chu Jianing."

"Do you really think that no one knows about the evil things you've done over the years? No, it's because you have me as your daughter, and I'm the one who bears all the pain for you."

Ji Wanqing almost shouted out her last sentence, without even using any honorifics.

After hearing what she said next, Aunt Lian's face turned pale and blue, and her whole body began to tremble.

She didn't expect that the eldest lady knew about what she had done, and she didn't know that these things had already been used as evidence in the hands of others.

Back then, she thought that Ji Wanqing was disliked at such a young age, so the incident of Ji Wanxing hurting Chu Jianing was put on her head.

I didn't expect it was because of her.

It was from that time that she came up with the idea of ​​letting Ji Wanqing be Ji Wanxing's substitute. In her eyes, this daughter had already been abandoned by the family. Since she was destined to be forgotten, she didn't need to worry about her anymore.

It would be better to use her to gain some face in front of the master and the mistress.

Now Ji Wanqing suddenly told her that she was treated like that when she was a child because of her. How could she accept it?

She shook her head desperately, muttering, "No, no, it's not like that, it's not like that, it's you, it's you who is not likable, not me, not me, you are lying."

When Ji Wanqing saw her like this, there was not a trace of heartache in her eyes.

It's not that she is cruel, but over the years, this biological mother has done so many things to hurt her.

Her mother-daughter feelings for her had long been wiped out.

Ji Wanqing knew that Aunt Lian had been almost stimulated, and thought that she probably didn't want to stay any longer, so she called out to the door, "Chunyu."

Chun Yu pushed the door open and walked in as soon as he heard her voice, "Miss."

"Send Aunt Lian out, and don't let her into the courtyard these days."

She didn't know whether Aunt Lian would feel guilty, but she didn't want to have anything to do with her anymore.

She had promised her good father in her early years that she would only protect Ji Wanxing from disasters until he turned eighteen. After that, no matter how he treated Aunt Lian, she would not interfere.

The suffering she endured during these eighteen years was considered to have fulfilled her desire to give birth.

Chunyu asked Aunt Lian, who was still in a state of confusion, to leave the room. When she came back, Ji Wanqing saw a slap mark on her face.

"But she hit me?"

Chunyu didn't say anything, and her eyes were a little red. She was not sad because she was slapped, but because she felt sorry for her young lady.

Aunt Lian kept muttering that it was all the young lady's fault until she left the yard, and blamed them, the servants, for corrupting the young lady.

Seeing that she didn't say anything but just kept looking at herself, Ji Wanqing stretched out her hand. Chunyu wiped the corners of her eyes with her sleeve and walked quickly to her bed, holding her hand, "Miss."

Ji Wanqing squeezed her hand slightly, "Silly girl, get away from her next time she makes a move."

"I'm fine, miss. Please lie down and I'll apply medicine for you." Chunyu's tone was full of heartache.
