The Valued Lady is Truly Dominant

Chapter 541: Chapter 541: What a Big Face

Seeing Song Ruwei accept that wallet, Song Lingsu breathed a sigh of relief and made an excuse to rush back to solve problems, fleeing in haste.

Lin Zhihui turned pale.

Song Ruwei, somewhat agitated, softly chided those behind her: ”No one is allowed to gossip about what just happened. Anyone who dares to spread rumors will be expelled by Nanny.”

Everyone repeatedly pledged they wouldn’t dare.

”Don’t anyone follow.”

Song Ruwei pulled Lin Zhihui forward and handed the wallet over.

Lin Zhihui, her face full of humiliation, looked at her with some resentment.

Song Ruwei was startled by that gaze but still stubbornly tied the wallet back on her waist, saying: ”Elder cousin, the sentiment is enough, big brother will know. How can a daughter’s wallet be given away at will?”

Lin Zhihui’s eyes reddened, and she did not accept it.

”We siblings have the sentiment, but outsiders don’t know that. Those outside have foul mouths. If they intentionally distort our sibling affection, spreading words of private exchanges, neither we nor big brother would have face.”

Lin Zhihui’s face turned pale at these words, and she mumbled: ”I just wanted to give a High School Talisman.”

”Who doesn’t know that? But human minds can easily harbor evil, turning good into bad without knowing the truth. For this reason, many false accusations have arisen.” Song Ruwei said with naïve affectation: ”So as his sisters, even if we wish to congratulate our brother, our intentions are enough. There’s no need to do something that hands others talk.”

Lin Zhihui’s heart was in turmoil; she was truly muddle-headed, how could she?

...

Clang.

The teacup in Madam’s hand fell, her face turning as dark as the bottom of a pot.

”What did you say? Repeat it once more?”

Nanny was a bit apprehensive but still repeated the news passed up by the people below. Since it concerned the Eldest Young Master, she dared not hide anything.

Unexpectedly, that cousin was so bold as to give a wallet.

Although Song Ruwei ordered not to spread it, it is Madam who runs the Prime Minister’s Mansion. How many things in this mansion can evade her eyes and ears, especially when it concerns her only legitimate son?

Sure enough, as soon as the issue in the garden arose, it soon reached Madam’s side.

”Such an unashamed girl.”

Madam was extremely angry, slamming her palm on the table.

Though she had not opened her heart to Song Zi, her younger sister-in-law, she was definitely quite good to her, willing to give a concubine-born niece face and backing, yet not to allow her daughter to have wild thoughts.

The audacity of such a young girl to covet the legitimate eldest son of the Prime Minister’s Mansion, truly having a big face, she sighed that the girl’s education seemed acceptable, but now it appears wasted.

”The Eldest Young Master didn’t accept it?”

Nanny smiled obsequiously and said: ”Our Eldest Young Master is the most courteous and elegant gentleman, how could he possibly accept it? Instead, it was Third Miss who handled it insightfully, accepting it and easing the awkwardness for both parties.”

Upon hearing this, Madam felt relieved and said: ”I didn’t favor that girl for nothing.”

”Indeed, with Second Miss married off, there is only her, an unmarried girl in the mansion. Should any young female guests visit our mansion, who else but her to play host? From this matter, Third Miss indeed hasn’t wasted the education from Third Madam or your esteemed guidance, Madam.”

”Yes, she is nine years old as well, and she should learn how to behave and engage with others. I’ll speak with Lu Shi and let this child handle some minor matters.”

Nanny smiled and praised: ”Madam is truly kind-hearted.”

”As for Zhihui, hmph.” A trace of disgust flashed in Madam’s eyes.

”Madam, the elder aunt requests to see you.”
