Chapter 1012: The Cunning Person Who Remains Unfamiliar Despite Being Raised
Situ Zhi fell silent, sullenly.
"Grandmother, Zhizhi is young and doesn’t know better. Please don’t take it to heart," Situtu Qinger said with a smile, looking at the Old Madam.
The Old Madam massaged her temples, helplessly saying, "He’s my own grandson, how could I possibly take his behavior to heart? Sigh! It’s not his fault, he just has an unreliable mother."
Auntie Tang, that foolish woman, has no brains at all, always only caring about her own family, neglecting even her own son. She doesn’t think about how Situ Zhi is the only male descendant of the Situ Family, naturally inheriting the General’s Mansion’s estates. Instead, she mindlessly gave it away to Prince Pu’s Mansion. Isn’t that just giving her son’s property away? What a fool.
Old Madam criticized Auntie Tang in front of her daughters, each showing different expressions.
No matter how bad Auntie Tang was, she was still their biological mother.
Situtu Qinger’s face stiffened for a moment, then returned to a calm expression, saying, "Grandmother is right, mother indeed made a mistake, she shouldn’t have given our family’s property to my maternal grandparents."
"Exactly, that wretched woman always favors outsiders, truly a cunning person who can’t be tamed. After eating our food for over a decade, we still couldn’t win her over," Old Madam said angrily. For these years, she blindly trusted that wretched woman, who knows how much of the General’s Mansion’s gold and silver treasures she has siphoned to support Prince Pu’s Mansion.
Thinking of these, the Old Madam felt an inexplicable heartache.
"Grandmother, don’t be angry. Mother has realized her mistake and is currently repenting in the courtyard. She has been wanting to come apologize to you, grandmother, but knowing you are furious, she dared not disturb you," Qinger spoke.
