Chapter 570 - 223 Truth (Part 2)
Xi Yu yelled from outside, "Miss, we’ve brought in the stuff." In the morning, they had organized all of Yueyao’s books, and now they were bringing in her clothes and jewelry.
Yueyao brought all the clothes she could wear this time, though there weren’t many as she was growing, and the clothes from last year no longer fit her. However, all her jewelry was brought over, a total of four trunks that she brought with her.
Xiang Wei said, "Bring them in!" Xiang Wei saw that the trunk Xi Yu and Xi Juan were carrying seemed too heavy and walked over to help lift it.
Yueyao had something she hadn’t finished saying and asked Xi Yu and the others to step back, "Leave it there, we’ll sort it out later."
Xi Yu led a few Coarse Maids downstairs.
Xiang Wei, seeing Yueyao’s expression, jokingly asked, "Miss, are you not angry that I took the initiative?" Xiang Wei didn’t intend to avoid telling Yueyao, it’s just that she thought Yueyao was too gentle and feared Yueyao would disagree.
Yueyao did not pursue the matter but was rather puzzled, "How did Maternal Aunt Bu and the Kitchen Maid come to willingly work for you?"
Xiang Wei did not hide anything and shared everything she knew. Maternal Aunt Bu was doing this to bring down Lady Mo because she wanted to avenge her deceased child. As for the Kitchen Maid, it was simple; she was doing it for her grandson. The Kitchen Maid’s grandson was under Maternal Aunt Bu’s control, forcing her to comply. Maternal Aunt Bu assured the Kitchen Maid that the poison was mild and wouldn’t be lethal.
Yueyao felt the Kitchen Maid was too extreme, "For her grandson, the Kitchen Maid even disregards her son and her own grandchildren?" Yueyao thought the Kitchen Maid was somewhat cruel.
Xiang Wei was slightly relieved to see Yueyao did not comment on her ruthless actions. She herself did not think her actions were too harsh, but Yueyao was too gentle and kind-hearted, she worried Yueyao would not agree. Xiang Wei then said, "Lady Zhao’s stepsons and daughters-in-law are very selfish; they always worry Lady Zhao has saved money secretly to support her biological daughter, so they constantly try to extract money from her. But Lady Zhao is not foolish and knows these stepsons are unreliable; she usually gives them only a little to appease them."
