Chapter 544: Chapter 544 Daughter realizes her mistake_1
Upon hearing the unexpected visit of King Yu’s concubine, Madam Yun was taken aback.
After last time’s incident, King Yu’s concubine cut off any connection with them. She was surprised why the concubine suddenly wished to visit the old duke and madam now.
“Where is she now?” Madam Yun asked.
“She’s at Shou’an Hall, currently chatting with the old madam.” Cuiping replied.
Madam Yun frowned.
Cuiping continued, “She also sent a message just now, saying she’ll come to visit Madam soon.”
“Tell her I’m a bit tired today and it’s inconvenient to see her.” Madam Yun said.
“As you wish.”
After that, Madam Yun went back to the inner room.
About an hour later, Wei Qingwan arrived outside Anxin Pavilion. Cuiping informed Madam Yun that she was resting.
Wei Qingwan said, “Please tell Madam, I will wait outside. Once she’s had enough rest, I’ll pay my respects.”
She knew Madam Yun’s schedule well; Madam was not going to rest at this lunch hour.
“Your Highness, it is freezing cold outside. Considering your invaluable status, it would be better if you wait in your former room, where a stove is already lit.” Cuiping suggested.
“No need to worry, I’ll wait for my mother here,” Wei Qingwan insisted.
Left with no choice, Cuiping went back and relayed Wei Qingwan’s words to Madame Yun.
After hearing this, Madam Yun didn’t say anything but closed her eyes pretending to rest.
After she attended to her for a while, Madam Yun opened her eyes again.
“You go outside and check.”
“Yes.”
Cuiping went to the courtyard gate and saw that Wei Qingwan was indeed still there.
So, Cuiping went back and reported to Madam Yun.
Madam Yun frowned, “Is she trying to force me to see her with this tactic?”
“Do you wish for me to let the young lady come in?” Cuiping asked.
“No.” After some thought, Madame Yun said, “If she wants to stand, let her continue standing.”
After waiting another hour, Madame Yun asked Cuiping to check outside again. To her surprise, Wei Qingwan was still standing at the gate.
“Just let her in,” Madam Yun conceded.
“Yes.”
Following the instruction, Cuiping invited Wei Qingwan inside.
The moment Wei Qingwan entered and saw Madam Yun, she knelt down.
“Mother,I’m sorry for my mistake.”
“There’s no need for such a formal apology, you are the King’s concubine, a member of the royal family. I can’t accept your reverence, it might shorten my life!” Madam Yun said cold-heartedly.
“Mother, I know you’re angry at me. You’re upset because I’ve become close to my aunt and because I didn’t listen to you…”
“The King’s concubine is very independent now. You decide whom to stay close to. It’s not necessary to explain it to me. I am not your biological mother anyway.” Madam Yun said.
“Mother, though you’re not my biological mother, you’ve been kinder to me than a real mother! How could I forget your kindness? This time, it’s my mistake. The scars on my back confused me. I solely focused on how not to be despised by the prince after entering King Yu Residence, and lost sight of who was really kind to me and who was pretending.”
As she spoke, tears welled up in Wei Qingwan’s eyes and trickled down her fair cheeks.
Madam Yun twitched slightly, and her stern expression softened a bit.
