Chapter 1310: Chapter 1308: My Lady Is Fatherless
Wu Lihong looked at the maidservant in front of him, thinking that the sort of master determines the sort of servant. Look at this girlâs arrogance; sheâs just like her master.
Even though he was angry inside, he knew the girl wasnât lying. Without Wufuâs approval, it might indeed be difficult to see Madam Zhou. After all, Madam Zhouâs nature is like a Cymbidium Flower, relying on others without having her own opinions.
So with Madam Zhou not yet home, the only one she could rely on was her daughter, and that daughter was not a Cymbidium Flower, but rather someone very troublesome.
Wu Lihong felt an unprecedented sense of frustration; everyone else had mothers bringing up daughters, with everything determined by the mother, but here, it was just the opposite!
"What exactly does she want?" Wu Lihong gritted his teeth and said, "What does she mean by blocking me? Doesnât she know that her motherâs unborn child canât wait? Could it be she really wants her sibling to be born just like her, as an illegitimate child?"
Purple Jadeâs face changed: "Mind your words, sir." She looked Wu Lihong up and down and said with a cold laugh, "Everyone knows that my lady has never seen her father since she was born. For over ten years, my lady said her father was long dead. So, what illegitimate child? My lady is just fatherless."
"You, youâre insolent! Iâm alive and well!" Wu Lihong jumped up and pointed at her, cursing.
Long dead? Heâs standing here, alive and well!
"Even if youâre alive and well, what does that have to do with my lady?" Purple Jade glanced at him with a half-smile, with an expression that said, my lady doesnât recognize you, so youâre as good as dead.
Wu Lihong was so angry he almost struck her but held himself back.
"Ask her what exactly she wants so that I can see Lady Mei!" Wu Lihong gritted his teeth and asked, "I want to see her mother. I have things to say."
Purple Jade said indifferently, "That depends on my ladyâs mood." After a pause, she added, "Meanwhile, what if you do see her? Whatâs your plan? Itâs best for you, sir, to think it over and settle on a plan before coming again. My lady is very busy and may not have time to see you every time."
Saying this, she retreated behind the door and had someone slam it shut.
"Please come back once youâve thought it through," Purple Jadeâs voice came from behind the tightly closed door.
Wu Lihong almost got his nose hit by the door; he kicked it once, and seeing someone coming down the alley, he didnât dare linger, for fear of being made a fool of, and had to get back on the carriage.
Request to see?
Ha, a maidservant dared to say that. For a father to see his daughter, he had to use the term "request to see"? Did she think her lady was Her Majesty the Empress!
But though Wu Lihong was angry, he also sensed Wufuâs firm attitude. Could it be that girl didnât want to recognize him? Otherwise, why has she repeatedly made things difficult for him?
But that girl named Purple Jade also made a point; he needed to have a plan.
Wu Lihong knocked on the carriage wall: "Return to the estate."
How to arrange it? Naturally, by bringing people back!
Inside the residence, Wufu gave a thumbs-up to Purple Jade, who had come to report back: "Well done, youâve got a sharp tongue, well-trained."
Purple Jade chuckled, hesitated for a moment, then said, "My lady, thatâs all well and good, but this matter needs to be resolved!"
Canât hide forever.
"I know, letâs wait until he comes up with a plan. But letâs not talk about this for now; there are two matters." Wufu proceeded to give instructions: "Go to the middleman and find two reliable old women, also..."
