Chapter 2648
2648 Mu Qingya’s Thoughts
No matter how he wanted to get close to his daughter, he couldn’t stand that cold face!
Mu Jingfeng was sullen. His mood sank when he thought of that cold face that resembled her mother’s.
...
The mother and daughter were the same. They weren’t likable!
With this disturbance, Mu Jingfeng didn’t feel like eating anymore. He left after placating Mu Qingya some more.
The servant girl Conglu stood on the side. She couldn’t resist wringing her hands, and she hesitated to speak.
Mu Qingya lifted her teacup and turned to look at her with a spurious smile. “Just say what you have to say. You don’t find it uncomfortable holding it in?”
“Madam, this servant does not understand.”
“What is there to not understand?”
“That crown prince consort treats you and the eldest young lady like this. Why are you still protecting her and treating her so well?”
Mu Qingya sighed. “Put yourself in her shoes. That child lost her mother from a tender age and lived on Sikong Planet for so many years. She only just learned of her family background and found her father, but the family head… sigh. Sister Chuyun was such a prideful person. Her children’s moral character and natural gift will not be lacking. I truly hope that they can resume good relations between father and daughter and undo all misunderstandings.”
“But she has not regarded you, Madam, with any concern at all! Look at her. She brought a memorial tablet to slap Madam’s face! Right now in the entire capital, in the various large clans and sects, everyone is laughing at you. You have been the lady of the house for so many years, yet you have to lower your head to the first wife. No matter how capable you may be, you are still only the second wife of the Mu Clan’s family head!”
“Shut up!” A nanny beside them berated, “Conglu, I see that you are getting more and more impudent.”
“Conglu is only feeling sorry for Madam.” The servant girl wailed while stomping her feet.
“Alright.” Mu Qingya helplessly grasped Conglu’s hand and patted it. She glanced at the nanny next to her. “Nanny, don’t blame this little girl. She is thinking of me and feels sorry for me, but I truly do not feel aggrieved at all. Don’t worry. In my view, even though the crown prince consort may be cold, she is polite and not narrow-minded. We cannot be rash and must take things slowly. She will one day know that we are all sincerely treating her well.”
“I don’t dare get close to her. I’m afraid that she will misunderstand that as me having bad intentions.” Mu Qingya sighed and said, “But I can see that the child is only a bit more sensitive and guarded. She truly is a good child. It will be fine as long as you don’t provoke her.”
“After we spend more time interacting with each other, she will certainly know how great her family is.
Conglu closed her mouth and did not say anymore. Beside them, Nanny Qiu also nodded with a smile. “No matter what other people say, with the patriarch and the family head’s support, Madam will forever be the Mu Clan’s lady of the house. There is no need to be concerned with those wagging tongues.”
Mu Qingya shook her head with a smile.
A boy servant hastily rushed in and said, “Madam, all the disciples in the clan have heard that the crown prince consort has barged into Wind Chasing Court. They all ran over to see the bustle.”
Mu Qingya’s expression instantly turned grave. “Sheer foolishness!”
***
Qiao Mu did not know that her barging into Wind Chasing Court had alarmed the entire Mu Clan.
Right now, she was currently having a staring contest with that red-furred tiger.
“Roar!”
“Roar!!!” The little white squirrel blocked in front of Qiao Mu. It snarled as it fixed its black beady eyes guardedly on the humongous tiger.
