“Aunt…” Feng Ruqing ignored Wei Mengjie and turned to look at Qin Yi with a smile on her face. “Who is this woman?”
Qin Yi pursed her lips disapprovingly. When Qin Yi wanted to respond to the question, Wei Mengjie, who was standing at the side, had recovered from her surprise and responded just before she could say anything. Wei Mengjie gave a mocking smile and introduced herself, “Your Royal Highness, I am the daughter of the Wei family, Wei Pinyao’s sister.”
“You are Wei Pinyao’s sister? How come I never knew Aunt Yao has a sister?” Feng Ruqing looked surprised and was in disbelief.
Wei Mengjie was startled and a little embarrassed. She uttered awkwardly, “I am the daughter of the Wei family’s second mistress.”
“Oh, I see. You’re only the daughter of a concubine. How dare you call yourself Aunt Yao’s sister?” Feng Ruqing’s lips curved into a mocking smile. She added, “As a child of a concubine, you are bold enough to enter the Qin residence with such arrogance. Aunt, why did you let such people enter the Qin residence?”
Qin Yi threw a sharp glance at Wei Mengjie. “She is too thick-faced and overstays her welcome. I have no idea at all.”
“Throw her out then your problem is solved.” Feng Ruqing moved two steps nearer and looked down at Wei Mengjie with an arrogant and threatening stare. “Or else, let her leave this place on her own.”
Wei Mengjie felt her mouth twitching. She quickly turned to Qin Yi and protested. “Sister Qin Yi, I am still considered as the Wei family’s second young lady whether you like it or not. If you insist on doing what she has said, it will tarnish my sister’s reputation. Imagine how other people will condemn her?”
By comparison, Wei Pinyao’s reputation in Liu Yun Kingdom was not any better.
A woman who could not conceive and yet did not allow her husband to take another concubine was no different from a shrew woman. If she were in her shoes, she would never monopolize Qin Xun and keep him for herself. In fact, she would get many concubines for his sake.
Without any warning, Feng Ruqing stepped forward and lifted Wei Mengjie’s lapel up with one hand.
Then a loud sound could be heard as she was thrown out of the door.
At this moment, everyone was in complete shock. They stared at the young lady standing at the entrance with bulging eyes and disbelief. Nobody seemed to be able to recover from their daze as her action was totally unexpected…
Wei Mengjie got up in an awkward and embarrassing state. She did not dare to lash out because the culprit was Feng Ruqing. Since she did not have the nerve to go against her, she could only stare at Qin Yi with annoyance.
This Qin Yi was already a married woman, but she still wanted to interfere in her parental home’s issues. Didn’t she feel suffocated with such a minuscule matter? She wondered whether Qin Xun was her biological brother. How could she object her own brother to take a concubine?
Previously, Mengjie’s father was forced by her grandmother to get a concubine, especially after Pinyao’s mother could not bear children anymore after giving birth to Pinyao. Grandmother kept shoving different women to her father. If her grandmother hadn’t done so, she would not have been present here today.
However, this Qin family did not follow the norm. From Old Lady Qin to Qin Yi who was married off to another family, both of them supported the Qin Xun couple. Wei Pinyao was the only woman in the Qin household.
“Aunt, there’s no need to treat such shameless people nicely.” Feng Ruqing laughed and stepped forward. “Throwing her out will do. If you do not have the heart to do so, let me do it! My reputation is already bad enough, this little incident will not affect me at all!”
“Your Royal Highness, although you have authority over us, you cannot stop me from visiting my own sister.” Wei Mengjie pleaded with a pathetic and sad look while biting her lip. Her eyes showed that she felt aggrieved by this whole incident.
Feng Ruqing did not buy her act. She raised her one of her brows menacingly and threatened Wei Mengjie, “This is the Qin residence. You can see your sister when she returns to the Wei residence. From now on, you are forbidden to enter the Qin residence. If you dare to go against my instruction, I will command someone to break your legs!”
If the Qin family could not be the villain, let her take the role.
“Princess, you are abusing your power to oppress people.” Wei Mengjie’s face turned red.
