Doted By The Regent King-Chapter 1444 - 1382: This Enmity Is Irreconcilable
With the intrusion of thieves, the Wu Family was sent into a sleepless turmoil. The next day, everyone woke up with dark circles under their eyes, yet, they were forced to endure the grievance silently and even had to negotiate with the culprit!
Madam Wang had never experienced such humiliation before, and yet there was no alternative. She wanted to negotiate with the damned scoundrel even more than Old Madam Wu, sever all ties!
Why? Because Wufu held her leverage in his hands. Compared to Wu Lihong’s marriage certificate, she was more afraid of what Wufu might do with those things.
Therefore, she wished for Wufu’s death more than anyone, yet dared not act rashly, because the power that Wufu had shown intimidated her from moving recklessly.
Madam Wang could only make curse dolls in secret, quietly wishing that Wufu, that despicable girl, would be struck down by heaven sooner and would offend someone powerful in the city and be killed.
At the same time, she could only lie low and wait patiently for her daughters to marry, especially Wu Yining. If she became the wife of Prince Wei’s Manor, how could revenge be out of reach?
Madam Wang considered using the knife of Prince Wei’s Manor, but after numerous calculations, could not formulate a good plan, neither daring to act recklessly, just waiting for the moment when her attack would be sure to hit its mark and leave no escape.
Indeed, as long as there are mountains left, there’s no worry about lacking firewood, confronting directly is something only a fool would do.
Madam Wang meticulously drew her eyebrows in front of the mirror, for today she must negotiate with those scoundrels, and she could not afford to be underestimated by them.
"Mother." Wu Yining’s sharp voice came through.
The brush in Madam Wang’s hand trembled, and the perfectly drawn eyebrow skewed, causing her to feel slightly irritated.
"Mother, I have no face left to see people, you are going to sell everyone in this manor!" Wu Yining cried and dashed over.
"Why are you screaming?" Madam Wang was in a bad mood, her tone equally bad. She turned her head and coldly looked at her daughter.
Wu Yining shivered, halted her steps, and looked at her with tears all over her face, pitifully.
Madam Wang saw her pale little face, the rash had not completely disappeared yet, let alone the fright from last night, all thanks to Wufu’s deeds against her daughter.
Her cherished Bright Pearl had suffered, softening Madam Wang’s heart a little, she said, "Your face is not fully recovered, why do you leave the courtyard and come out!"
Wu Yining’s lips curled, crying, "Those vile servants are saying a flower thief broke into my courtyard, how can I continue to live?"
Madam Wang’s face changed: "Who’s spreading this chaos, Nanny Wei, Nanny Wei."
Nanny Wei outside heard the call and quickly walked in.
"Go, flog those blabbering servants twenty times, sell them far away, let them cease gossiping about their masters!" Madam Wang commanded angrily.
Nanny Wei wished to advise, but offending those insignificant ones now might be counterproductive, then they’d spread the rumors even more vigorously.
Yet seeing her master enraged, remembering Xiao Shan, Nanny Wei swallowed her words and went to carry out the order, she needed to think of a way to sustain herself well.
"Mother, was it that wretched woman?" Wu Yining asked through gritted teeth after Nanny Wei left.
Upon learning a male thief broke into the courtyard, Wu Yining was petrified, sleepless all night, vaguely hearing it was Wufu’s doing, truly a blend of new and old hatreds, a rivalry irreconcilable!
"Yes, it was her. So from now on, avoid her, Ningning, you are no match for her!" Madam Wang said with a stern face.
Wu Yining’s small face twisted in hatred: "She is so vicious. This grudge, I cannot live under the same sky with her!"
Madam Wang seeing this said, "So listen to your mother, avoid her well. Once you become the exalted Crown Princess or Princess Consort, how you choose to take revenge will be entirely up to you. Ningning, only power is truly valuable!"
Wu Yining nodded firmly, understanding now, power, she must possess it!
