Doted By The Regent King-Chapter 1350 - 1348: I Like It Quick and Simple

The commotion at the Changqing Residence attracted quite a crowd, and soon everyone knew that the legitimate son of Lord Wu from the Ministry of Rites caused a scene at someone’s home, only to be fiercely taught a lesson by being dunked into a dung bucket. This incident became a laughing stock in the Capital.

The Wu Family, naturally, was furious, but Wufu was in such a good mood that she almost started humming a tune.

"Is the young lady so happy bullying children!" Purple Jade handed Wufu a cup of Eight-Treasure Tea, asking with a smile. 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

Wufu replied, "Happy indeed. Bullying the small, it brings me great joy!"

Purple Jade remained silent for a moment, then asked, "Young lady, making such a spectacle, what is it for? Do you intend to become complete enemies with them?"

Clearly, the matter could have been resolved privately, but she insisted on making it irreparable. If not resolutely choosing enmity, then what?

"Well, it could be solved privately, but I prefer simple and crude ways!" Wufu shrugged and said, "You also got one thing right, I do want to tear off all pretense with the Wu Family. If Mother has some epiphany along with a bit of dramatics, I think she’d quicker make up her mind!"

Madam Zhou is soft-eared and easily swayed. Now, it seems she’s leaning toward my side without much expectation from the Wu Family, but if something happens, she might be coaxed by Wu Lihong again?

Better let her see the true colors of the Wu Family bit by bit until disappointment turns into hopelessness!

As for me, who never intended to recognize ancestors or clan ties, does it even matter to feud or not?

The other side so blatantly humiliates me, why should I care for their face or play with cunning detours?

Purple Jade thought for a moment and said, "Young lady, many people might have heard what that young master from the Wu Family said. Do we need to do something?"

The vixen and concubine mentioned by Wu Guanyu provided outsiders with this notion, that this residence harbors an unpresentable mother and daughter without name or status.

Wufu said, "Let them know as they may; we can’t hide or avoid meeting people forever."

Purple Jade looked at her, asking, "Doesn’t the young lady mind?"

Wufu squinted and said, "Purple Jade, some rumors simmer harder, and when the slap in the face comes, it will echo louder."

Purple Jade was startled, thought for a moment, and said, "Is the young lady referring to that marriage certificate?"

Wufu nodded, "Exactly, that document establishes the identity for me and my mother. Even if I am considered as an illegitimate child, my mother signed a marriage certificate with him, which is a solid fact. If to blame, blame it on Wu Lihong’s rashness back then."

If not for the rashness, how would he dare write a marriage certificate himself without parental consent? That’s a trap for both parents and himself.

"As long as the young lady has a plan."

Wufu nodded, "But still be cautious, preventing desperate actions from others. I’m not afraid of anything, just afraid of any accident happening to the child in my mother’s belly!"

"I will instruct people to keep watch."

"Young lady." Hongyu stood by the door, coming in to report that Madam Zhou was inviting her.

After such a ruckus, Madam Zhou couldn’t have been completely unaware, and she was bound to question Wufu about what transpired.

Wufu didn’t conceal the truth, there was nothing to hide anyway, especially since she needed Madam Zhou to see what kind of lair of monsters and goblins it was inside.

Look, even a child is no easy character to deal with; this person hasn’t even entered the door or done much yet, and already there’s such hostility. What if they do come in?
