Chapter 2069 Sisters Meet (4)
Dong Wan'er turned around and saluted Yuwen Yanran in a low voice: "Hello, sister-in-law!"
At this moment, Yanran had already recovered from the shock of seeing her. Seeing her humble and pleasant look, she sneered: "Miss Dong, long time no see. I didn't expect that we would meet here. It's really a coincidence."
Du Shi didn't know what was going on. She looked at Yanran with cold eyes and said: "What's the matter? Yanran, do you know Miss Dong?"
Yanran said: "To answer mother's question, my wife and this Miss Dong not only know each other, but also lived in the same courtyard for several years. This Miss Dong is the eldest daughter of Princess Chaoqing and Prince Consort Dong, and my wife's former elder sister. I just didn't expect that such a dignified young lady would come to Beijing privately and meet my uncle. It's really a coincidence!"
Yanran was not the kind of person who would accept everything, otherwise she would not dare to resist the oppression of Princess Chaoqing. In the past few months, she has been doted on by her husband and mother-in-law, and her temper has become more relaxed than before. Therefore, in front of her hated enemies, she did not hide her disgust for the Dong family at all, and sarcastically said it out.
Mrs. Du never thought that Dong Wan'er would be the daughter of Princess Chaoqing, who was notoriously jealous and domineering. Moreover, she had heard Yanran talk about how her mother was killed by Chaoqing. Therefore, she had a bad impression of Chaoqing, and her eyes towards Dong Wan'er were not as kind as before.
Dong Wan'er probably saw that Du's face had changed, and also saw that Yuwen Yanran didn't intend to let her go easily, so she hurriedly said in a soft voice: "Sister, you've always been fine. I've been busy running around for my parents' affairs recently, and I haven't had time to come to visit you. I hope you don't blame me as your sister."
She played the family card, wanting to create an image of a filial and sensible daughter in front of Du, to highlight Dong Wan'er's unfilial. Unfortunately, Du was also born as a concubine's daughter, and had been persecuted by her mother and sister, so she could best understand the feelings of being a concubine's daughter. Dong Wan'er's performance did not add points to Dong Wan'er in her heart, but made her feel a little more disgusted.
Princess Chaoqing was famous for her cruelty and domineering, and Prince Consort Dong was weak and incompetent. What good children could they give birth to? Even if they could give birth to good children, they would have long been corrupted under their more than ten years of education, so when she looked at Dong Wan'er at this moment, she was already displeased in various ways.
Yanran said coldly: "Miss Dong, you think too much. My brother and I have long left the Dong family and have no connection with them. So I am not worthy of being called your sister, let alone you visiting me."
The harsh words hit Dong Wan'er so hard that she was speechless. She saw Chongwu looking at her from the corner of her eye, and immediately showed a pitiful look, lowered her head awkwardly, and her expression was gloomy.
Chongwu saw that his sister-in-law showed no mercy to Dong Wan'er, and saw Dong Wan'er's pitiful appearance, and felt a little pity in his heart. He said unhappily: "Wan'er, don't just stand there, sit down and talk. From now on, we are all a family, so there is no need to be so polite to separate the children."
Yanran was a little surprised that he actually treated her as his own family.
Dong Wan'er was naturally very proud of the man's ability. She quickly glanced at Yanran, as if provoking, and then sat on an empty chair with a dignified manner, with her back straight, looking like a standard lady from a noble family.
Yanran saw Dong Wan'er's provocative look, but she was not angry. In the past, when she was alone in Dong's house, she dared to confront them. Now that she had her husband and mother-in-law supporting her, she didn't have to be afraid of Dong Wan'er and the like.
