While Ling Wei was talking ‘blah, blah’, Ling Zhuo’s expression couldn’t help but become blank. She thought of what she had said to Ling Wu when she just returned home.
Did she also have the same image in Ling Wu’s heart at that time?
A girl who had occupied her life of glory and wealth for eleven years ended up confusing right and wrong in front of her, forcing her to leave the Marquis’s mansion and her parents.
She seemed to have become somewhat ugly.
Ling Wei saw her blank expression and thought that Ling Zhuo was too stupid and didn’t know how to deal with Ling Wu. This made her very angry, so she took the initiative to give her some ‘advice’.
“Eldest Aunt and Eldest Uncle already love that person. If the other party is chosen by the Third Princess to accompany her this time, I’m afraid the Eldest Aunt and Eldest Uncle will love her even more. But what if Ling Wu is not chosen, and you, Sixth Sister, are chosen?”
Because Ling Zhuo was too ‘stupid’, Ling Wei had to make her words more clear.
“You and Ling Wu are both the legitimate daughters of the Marquis of Changping. If you can become the princess’s companion, you will definitely be more important in the hearts of the madams than Ling Wu.”
“To be honest, the greater value of girls like us who have been carefully brought up lies in the benefits we can bring to the family. If you can marry better than Ling Wu, Eldest Aunt and Eldest Uncle will definitely pay more attention to you. Sixth Sister, do you think this is true?”
This was how Old Mrs. Wu and Mrs. Xiao Wu educated Ling Wei, so she didn’t know that in the education Ling Zhuo received from childhood to adulthood, there was never any idea of raising a girl just to bring honor to the family, marry into a wealthy family, and bring benefits to the family.
Ling Zhuo had always felt that being a daughter was also noble. She could live freely at her parents’ home, and there was no need to be servile and compromise after getting married.
Ling Zhuo disdained Ling Wei’s words, but she couldn’t help but be moved by a few sentences in that speech.
If, one day, she made enough sacrifices for the family, would her parents feel guilty and focus on her again?
This thought flashed through Ling Zhuo’s mind and was then buried deep in her heart.
“Actually, you, Sixth Sister, have greater hopes for running for this selection than that person. She is a girl who was raised in a small family. She is petty in nature. Maybe she will make a fool of herself before the palace selection, and those noble masters in the palace will dislike her.”
Ling Wei thought that her hint should be obvious enough.
She just wanted to wait, wait until Ling Zhuo took action and succeeded, and then she secretly told her Eldest Aunt and Eldest Uncle the news.
By then, when their adopted daughter had harmed their own daughter, she didn’t believe that her Eldest Aunt and Eldest Uncle would be able to tolerate Ling Zhuo.
She had long been dissatisfied with the fact that Ling Zhuo, a fake daughter, was still in the mansion.
Although she was from such a humble background, she still occupied the position of the legitimate daughter of the Marquis of Changping. Her status was even more noble than hers.
When facing her, she was still as arrogant as before. There was no trace of the guilty conscience of the dove occupying the magpie’s nest.
This was a good opportunity to first make Ling Wu lose the qualification to run for selection and then drive Ling Zhuo out of the Marquis of Changping Mansion.
By then, she would become the Third Princess’s companion, and she would probably be the most honorable young lady in the Marquis of Changping Mansion.
Ling Wei’s ambition was almost written on her face. She dared to harm others with such obvious scheming intentions. Ling Zhuo had to admire the education level of Old Mrs. Wu and Mrs. Xiao Wu.
“Then, what?”
Ling Zhuo was too lazy to act with her. After hearing what she said, she showed sarcasm on her face.
“Ling Wei, do you think you are particularly smart, or do you think I am particularly stupid? Why do you think that I will harm people in the palace like you think?”
