Chapter 19 - Awesome! You Are Only a Guest Here

“Second Elder Sister, this is the mansion of Marquis Hua Yang, my father’s residence. Any servant in this house is my father’s servant and I am my father’s only legitimate daughter. Anyone who wants to die can try hurting me.” Wei Yuewu said in a soft but harsh tone as she looked coldly at the two approaching maidservants.

The two vicious maidservants stopped short and did not dare to come forward again.

“How... how dare... dare you...” Wei Yan cried furiously when she saw the servants were intimidated by Wei Yuewu’s words. Slapping hard on the chair rails, she jumped to her feet and pointed her forefinger at Wei Yuewu.

“Second Elder Sister, I surely dare! The place where you are standing is my father’s residence. The servants you use are servants of my father’s house. No matter what, you can’t deny the fact that you are not my father’s daughter but only a guest who lives here. You can claim to be a mistress while I am away, but now I am back!”

Wei Yuewu bluntly interrupted Wei Yan and sneered aggressively.

She actually distorted the fact that the three brothers of the mansion hadn’t divided the family property. Therefore all the young ladies living in the house were in fact mistresses and no one was “a guest.” However, Wei Yuewu deliberately said so to provoke Wei Yan.

Wei Yan was surprised to find that Wei Yuewu was so sharp-tongued. She was so provoked that she almost spat blood. she had been used to dominating the backyard of the mansion of Marquis Hua Yang, but now Wei Yuewu came from nowhere to tell her that she had been able to run amok in the backyard for so many years only because Wei Yuewu allowed her to do so and that she couldn’t behave like a mistress any more now that Wei Yuewu was back!

Having figured out the meaning of Wei Yuewu’s words, Wei Yan, who was always proud, was so infuriated that her pretty face became livid. She pointed her forefinger at Wei Yuewu, sneering, “Block...block the mouth of this cheap girl!”

Wei Yuewu fired back blandly. “Second Elder Sister, does grandmother know you order my servants to block my mouth? Or do you really think grandmother knows nothing about what you did today? How about waiting for grandmother to come over? If she also thinks I am a fake, I will give you a satisfactory explanation.”

Her words were harsh and there was not a single touch of panic on her face out of the current situation surrounding her questioned identity. Under her long eyelashes, a trace of deep thoughtfulness flashed in her eyes.

“You bitch, you dare to take the matter to grandma? Do you think grandmother will want to see you? You are no more than a bastard from nowhere. How could you have the gut to strut into the mansion of Marquis Hua Yang!” Enraged by Wei Yuewu’s contempt and disdain, Wei Yan began to speak without thinking.

“Are you saying that grandmother didn’t know my coming to the mansion today? Is Second Aunt really so powerful in this mansion that she wants to drive all of the eldest branch out of the family and seeks to usurp my father’s title?” Wei Yuewu lifted her eyebrows. The angrier Wei Yan was, the calmer she would be!

She had already heard from her maternal grandmother that her paternal grandmother was not an ordinary backyard woman but a most shrewd and capable person. Wei Yuewu did not believe that the Madam Dowager was ignorant of the dramatic fight between her and Wei Yan.

And now, she only wanted the Madam Dowager to take a stand.

Even if she was not loved by the Madam Dowager, she was still the first daughter of Marquis Hua Yang. Given her identity, the old lady had to consider her father’s face. At this point, Wei Yuewu somehow thought of what her maternal grandmother told her in private before she left.

As her maternal grandmother was in poor health, she was then lying in bed. She took Wei Yuewu’s hands, sighed, and lovingly tidied up Wei Yuewu’s long hair. After a long while in silence, she said, “Don’t be afraid, Wu’er. Your paternal grandmother won’t dare to hurt you!”

Wei Yuewu had long witnessed her maternal grandmother’s wisdom, so she kept those words in mind. Although she did not understand what her maternal grandmother meant by “won’t dare”, she was convinced that she would not deceive her.

So now, she just wanted to find out what was the bottom line of her paternal grandmother.

The situation had become so chaotic, and she didn’t believe that the Madam Dowager, the most powerful woman in the backyard of the mansion of Marquis Hua Yang, would sit there doing nothing!

“Bitch!” Wei Yan was made speechless by Wei Yuewu’s rebuke. She felt particularly diffident after hearing Wei Yuewu’s last sentence. And she was afraid of its being heard and spread. She was driven so mad that she longed to rip Wei Yuewu’s mouth. Now she didn’t even order other servants to do it for her. She rushed directly to Wei Yuewu, cursing, “You cheap girl, see if I won’t tear your mouth today!”

Jin Ling saw Wei Yan dashing to Wei Yuewu and she was about to fend off Wei Yan. However, Wei Yuewu seized her clothes and stopped her. Jin Ling could only stand there and watched Wei Yan raise her hand to give a hard slap to Wei Yuewu’s face...
