Chapter 210



That meant the dress was delivered to the mansion early this morning.

Wei Yuewu squinted and concealed the mocking smile in her eyes. She took a deep breath before suppressing the hatred in her heart. So, this Concubine Dong was especially trying to show how much she cared about her, right? Well, since that was the case, she would like to cooperate and stage a wonderful performance for Concubine Dong!

“When Concubine Dong comes back to the mansion, I ought to thank her!” Wei Yuewu said with a smile and asked Shufei to receive the dress.

“Concubine Dong really cares much about you. She only made a dress for you. Even the Third Young Lady doesn’t have one. We could see that she does care about you! It’s said that she also brought a lot of gifts to you because she learned that you were back to the mansion.” Nanny Hong said.

As she spoke, Wei Yuejiao walked in with her maid. She bowed to the Madam Dowager first, then she looked at the dress in Shufei’s hand jealously. The dress was made by her mother. She had seen her mother sewing the dress in person stitch by stitch. Each time she saw her mother working on the dress, she asked for it but was rejected several times. Although Concubine Dong would always satisfy her requests in all other aspects, she resolutely declined her request for the dress.

The Madam Dowager nodded. Nanny Hong smiled and took out another dress. “Third Young Lady, Concubine Dong said she had no time to make a new dress for you because she had been busy working on the dress for the Sixth Young Lady. Therefore, she had someone else make a new dress for you and asked you to make do with it at the moment.”

When Wei Yuewu’s gaze fell on the set of clothes, and a trace of cold ridicule flashed in her eyes. Concubine Dong really knew how to put her in a disadvantageous position. With a single glance, everyone could tell the difference between her and Wei Yuejiao when the two of them wore the dresses prepared by Concubine Dong. Such difference was completely reflected by her extravagant dress in comparison with the plain dress for Wei Yuejiao.

If they went out today wearing the dresses prepared by Concubine Dong, people would believe that she was an arrogant legitimate daughter bullying her elder sister who was born by a concubine. This would no doubt cause serious damage to her reputation!

Wei Yuejiao’s dress looked a little plain. Moreover, at a glance, everyone could see that the dress was made of rough materials. It was a sharp contrast to the gorgeous dress in Shufei’s hand. Everyone would think that Wei Yuewu was too arrogant and didn’t know how to display modesty once Wei Yuewu put that dress on. As for Concubine Dong, not only could she gain a good reputation, she could also leave people an impression that she was generous and sincere to Wei Yuewu even more than she cared about her own daughter.

However, Concubine Dong was too confident this time. Did this Concubine Dong think that she was still the same naive little girl who knew nothing?

“Yes, thank you, Nanny Hong!” Even though Wei Yuejiao was unwilling to receive the rough dress, she could only bear this and responded with grievance. Fortunately, her mother did tell her that she would have plenty of opportunities to gain a winning advantage over Wei Yuewu next time and even forever, as long as she let Wei Yuewu go this time. By then, it was up to her to decide Wei Yuewu’s life and death.

Wei Yuewu and Wei Yuejiao spoke a few more words with the Madam Dowager and then the Madam Dowager asked them to go back to have breakfast and put on new dresses and go together to welcome their father and Concubine Dong after breakfast.

The two of them left the Madam Dowager’s courtyard one after another and headed for their own courtyard. It was rare for Wei Yuejiao to have a good temper today, so that she didn’t leave earlier. Instead, she stopped and waited for Wei Yuewu to get closer. She then smiled and said, “Six Younger Sister, our father will definitely be glad to see you wearing this dress.”

“That’s for sure. Concubine Dong sewed this for me in person. But it’s also true that Concubine Dong is merely a concubine. So, it’s quite natural for her to sew this gift for me in person. Otherwise, others would say that Concubine Dong doesn’t know how to behave herself.” Wei Yuewu said calmly. However, the disdain in her tone and words made Wei Yuejiao’s face change several times.

Wei Yuejiao tried hard a few times to suppress the anger in her heart.

However, Wei Yuewu didn’t want to let her go. She turned her head and picked up a corner of the dress made by Concubine Dong. She slightly shook the dress and said with a hint of teasing, “Actually, this dress isn’t very good. I wonder what Concubine Dong will do when she finds that an old maidservant is wearing the dress she made stitch by stitch. Will she be so angry that she couldn’t help but spit blood?”

“You… how dare you…” Wei Yuejiao shouted angrily.

“Why don’t I dare? Do you want to try and see if Concubine Dong will spit blood?” Wei Yuewu smiled faintly and said carelessly, “Anyway, she is just a concubine and a servant to me. I’m free to give this dress to anyone since this is merely a dress made by my servant!”

“Wei Yuewu, you’re going too far!” Wei Yuejiao raised her eyebrows. She was so angry that her eyes were about to turn red.

“I didn’t go too far. Concubine Dong is merely a servant to me. Don’t tell me that I, as a legitimate daughter of the mansion of Marquis Hua Yang, should respect a servant.” Wei Yuewu suddenly covered her mouth and smiled. She sized up Wei Yuejiao and said, “Oh, I forgot that there is still a concubine-born daughter here. But since you are only a concubine-born daughter, you only deserve such a dress. Even the maidservants in the mansion are dressed better than you!”

“You are nothing but a concubine-born daughter. Normally, grandmother dotes on you in the mansion. However, when the two of us go out together, you have to behave yourself and allow me, the legitimate daughter, to stand out. Do you dare to compete with me?” Wei Yuewu looked at Wei Yuejiao. The last part of her sentence seemed to be spoken to herself. But every word seemed to pierce into Wei Yuejiao’s heart.

“Give this dress back to me!” Wei Yuejiao was so angry that her face turned ashen. She snatched the dress from Shufei’s hands and threw the dress in her maid’s hands over to Wei Yuewu. Then, she raised her head towards Wei Yuewu and said, “I’ll never allow you to ruin the dress made by my mother. You are only worthy of such coarse clothes.”

“Third Elder Sister, quit it. Anyway, you have to obediently bring that dress back to me. Or, are you trying to steal my limelight?” Wei Yuewu cast a faint glance at Wei Yuejiao as if she didn’t notice Wei Yuejiao’s overreaction.

However, such behavior and words made Wei Yuejiao become even angrier. Wei Yuejiao had always believed that she was the focus of everyone’s attention and she had never received such insult in the past. She knew that her mother’s instruction was quite important. But upon seeing Wei Yuewu’s arrogant manner, she felt that she couldn’t endure it.

“Wei Yuewu, just wait and see if I dare to wear this dress!” Wei Yuejiao snorted coldly. She turned around and left with her maid. She would like to see what consequences she will have to face after she put on the dress made by her own mother! She was convinced that even if her mother was a bit angry, it didn’t really matter. At most, she would scold her. This was nothing in comparison to losing face in front of Wei Yuewu.

“Miss, how could the Third Young Lady take away your dress?” Shufei said angrily from the side.

“Why can’t she take it away? It’s a dress made by her own mother. Just like I want to take back my mother’s stuff, so does Wei Yuejiao!” Wei Yuewu said coldly. She still remembered that the screen embroidered by her mother was still placed in Wei Yuejiao’s room!

That screen was something she had to get back. In fact, Wei Yuewu had deliberately provoked Wei Yuejiao into exchanging their dresses.

Wei Yuewu reached out her hands to pick up the dress that Wei Yuejiao had left behind with a meaningful gaze. “Help me change into this dress after a while! Let Jin Ling go to Brocade Clothing Shop again.”

By the time Wei Yuewu came out again, she had changed her clothes. She was wearing a casual dress. Although the dress looked plain, it was made of quality materials that was not inferior to the dress made by Concubine Dong. But the dress was a bit longer and didn’t seem to fit Wei Yuewu very well.

This dress was the one Wei Yuewu had asked Jin Ling to fetch from Brocade Clothing Shop. Huamo was carrying a small parcel in her hand behind Wei Yuewu.

As soon as Wei Yuewu came out, a young maidservant had rushed to report to Wei Yuejiao. Upon hearing that Wei Yuewu was not wearing the coarse dress that her mother had prepared for her, Wei Yuejiao heaved a sigh of relief and put on Wei Yuewu’s dress as if this was her dress.

She had told Wei Yuewu that she would definitely wear this dress. But on second thought after she returned to the courtyard, she was afraid that she would ruin her mother’s plan. So, she asked someone to keep an eye on Wei Yuewu.

If Wei Yuewu really wore that coarse dress, she couldn’t wear this dress no matter how sarcastic Wei Yuewu was.

However, since Wei Yuewu was wearing her usual banquet dress, she wasn’t going too far if she wore this dress. Besides, she must wear this dress if Wei Yuewu wore her usual banquet dress! Otherwise, she could no longer raise her head in front of Wei Yuewu in the days to come.

Wei Yuejiao had also thought about the consequences. Even if her wearing this dress had certain adverse impact on her mother’s plan, the consequences wouldn’t be serious!

The carriage had already been waiting in the backyard. Coincidentally, the coachman happened to be Old Li. Seeing Wei Yuewu coming over, he hurriedly came up to greet her. “Sixth Young Lady, the carriage is already. Please get in now!”

“Wait a moment!” Wei Yuewu smiled and slowly circled around the carriage. Finally, she stood in front of the carriage door.

“Can the carriage door not be closed tightly along the way?” Looking at the solid door, Wei Yuewu asked thoughtfully.

Old Li couldn’t understand why Wei Yuewu would come up with such a question. So, he replied while looking at the door. “Sixth Young Lady, it’s cold in winter. If you don’t close the door, there will be wind blowing in.”

“The carriage is too stuffy!” Wei Yuewu shook her head.

“You can open the window a little to allow some wind to come in without feeling cold inside the carriage.” Old Li suggested. It was really difficult for him to do that because he was afraid that Wei Yuewu might get sick if the door was not closed.

“The door can be opened after the carriage stops, right?”

Although Old Li didn’t know what Wei Yuewu was going to do, he answered honestly, “Yes, of course. By then, I will definitely stop at a place that is sheltered from the wind and facing towards the sun. And you can let down the curtain and open the door.”

“Alright!” Wei Yuewu was very satisfied with this answer. So, she nodded and looked thoughtfully at Wei Yuejiao who was coming with an arrogant look. Then, she got into the carriage with the support of Huamo.

However, she didn’t sit in the innermost seat. Instead, she sat down near the door. After Huamo got into the carriage, she sat right behind Wei Yuewu, which was very close to the carriage door.

Wei Yuejiao also got into the carriage. Seeing that Wei Yuewu and her maid were seated near the door, Wei Yuejiao snorted coldly and took the seat far from the door. Since Wei Yuewu liked to sit near the door, just let her court disaster herself!

Seats near the door were the most uncomfortable!

The carriage door closed and the carriage slowly started moving. Wei Yuewu closed her eyes to have a rest. She didn’t say anything. It was still early.

Seeing Wei Yuewu didn’t say anything, Wei Yuejiao thought for a while and closed her eyes as well. Her mother repeatedly warned her that she must appear very friendly with Wei Yuewu today. Although they had a quarrel, Wei Yuejiao decided to be more generous and stop arguing with her. In any case, her mother had plenty of ways to deal with Wei Yuewu.

She only needed to keep an eye on the situation and cooperate with her mother!

The carriage arrived at the city gate in a short while. Old Li asked through the curtain, “Young ladies, please decide where to park our carriage. Outside or inside the city gate?”

“Outside the city gate!”

“Inside the city gate!”
