Chapter 113: Chapter too, Tear Off _1
Daohua felt exhausted, this Aunt Lin really never forgot to drag her along in everything, even when the grandmother had already let her go, she still didn’t forget to forcibly bring her into it because of the thoughts in her heart.
Such talent!
But in her eyes, was she nothing but a harmless little white rabbit, to be used as a raft by Aunt Lin?
Yan Zhiyuan, seeing that the old lady’s expression was becoming increasingly impatient, and knowing that Aunt Lin had yet to mention the matter of Wangyue Academy, took the opportunity to smooth things over, “Mother, don’t be angry, Aunt Lin came to pay her respects to you out of filial piety, give her a chance to correct her mistake.”
Daohua looked up at her Second Uncle. He was able to get along well with the people from the County Governor’s Office and the Prefectural Governor’s Office despite his common status—there was no denying he was a capable man.
But to say he was very shrewd, that wasn’t necessarily the case.
If he had really understood the situation clearly, he wouldn’t have spoken up at this moment.
The incident before, when he stopped her from brewing wine—if it was just him playing the elder wanting to show his influence within the Yan Family, then speaking up for Aunt Lin now was simply being muddled.
He wished to secure an opportunity for Yan Wenjie to study at Wangyue Academy, which was understandable, but he could have plainly stated so, in which case, she would have thought better of him.
But instead, he chose to side with Aunt Lin—didn’t he know about the strife between the wives and concubines of the main house?
He knew, yet he still did it.
It was just that he thought because she was a younger member of the family, he and Aunt Lin could jointly pressure her weaker father to force her into submission.
What a laughable and foolish idea!
Yan Zhiyuan had wanted to scold Daohua as well, but seeing the mocking look in her eyes, he found himself suddenly at a loss for words.
He couldn’t speak, but the Sun Family had no such reservations, laughing as she said, “Daohua, for the sake of your fifth brother and third younger sister, stop holding Aunt Lin’s slip of the tongue against her.”
So it had become her holding a grudge!
With no smile on her face, Daohua said bluntly, “Second Aunt seems very good at being generous with others’ affairs.”
The Sun Family’s face stiffened, knowing that Daohua could be sharp-tongued, but she didn’t expect her to be so merciless—a simple word from a second aunt was enough.
