Chapter 1476: Unt.i.tled
What else could Lady w.a.n.g say? She could only smile bitterly and said, “She is.”
Immediately, all the ladies gave Lady w.a.n.g strange looks.
Mrs Zuo feigned an indifferent tone. “Lady w.a.n.g, I’ve been meaning to tell you something for a long time, but I’ve hesitated to do so.”
“Mrs Zuo, feel free to speak your mind.” Lady w.a.n.g forced herself to face the questioning looks.
“Isn’t your Feng Wu out of line?” Mrs Zuo frowned. “Is that how the Feng family raises their daughter?”
“Of course not!”
Before Lady w.a.n.g could reply, Feng Liu said loudly, “Mrs Zuo, Feng Wu is a vile and evil person by nature. My family’s teachings have nothing to do with it!”
Lady w.a.n.g added, “That girl went to Northern Border City five years ago and lived like a wild person out there. It’s not a surprise that she became so twisted.”
Mrs Zuo didn’t expect to hear such a reply.
She had thought that Lady w.a.n.g would be on Feng Wu’s side.
If that was the case…
That made things much easier!
Mrs Zuo smiled. “Lady w.a.n.g, to be honest, Feng Wu’s reputation isn’t exactly good at the moment.”
Lady w.a.n.g smiled bitterly. “Really?”
Mrs Zuo said, “That’s right. Everyone’s been saying that Feng Wu is the crown prince’s bed-warming maid, but she’s the daughter of the Feng family. How is she ever going to get married?”
Lady w.a.n.g smiled wryly. “That’s true. I’ve talked to her about it, but…”
She hesitated before she finished her sentence. This was such a good chance to slander Feng Wu that she didn’t want to waste it.
At that thought, Lady w.a.n.g smiled in resignation and said, “That girl wanted to be His Royal Highness’s maid, and nothing we said could stop her. What else could we do?”
Wow —
That shocked a lot of the ladies.
They thought that Feng Wu stayed with Jun Linyuan because he forced her to, but judging from Lady w.a.n.g’s tone, the crown prince hadn’t forced Feng Wu at all. She was the one who wouldn’t leave him alone!
“Really? Feng Wu offered to be His Royal Highness’s maid herself?” Mrs Dugu asked casually.
Lady w.a.n.g gave them a bitter smile. “I shouldn’t be saying this, but that girl is so willful and arrogant, and she’s constantly giving me headaches. She’s fatherless, and her mother is mentally ill. Her uncle and I have tried to keep her in line, but she’s just so impossible! Therefore, we can only let her do whatever she wants. There’s nothing we can do, even if we want to.”
Those words made the other ladies exchange amazed looks.
So, Feng Wu had really volunteered to be the crown prince’s little maid? She was so infatuated…
Immediately, the ladies that had liked Feng Wu before all frowned.
They all looked down on a girl without self-respect.
“I didn’t know Feng Wu was like that.”
“I used to think quite highly of her. As it turned out —”
“She was telling everyone that His Royal Highness forced her to stay with him, but —”
“Being in love with the crown prince isn’t all that bad, but only a despicable person would pretend to be all innocent!”
While the others expressed their disdain toward Feng Wu, Mrs Zuo and Mrs Dugu exchanged excited looks.
