Chapter 1349: Does The Mo family Care About That Pittance Of Yours? (2)
But Yang Xuhua was quite smart. He looked at Yang Shiyun. “The Chu family said you offended them. How exactly did you offend them?”
Yang Shiyun’s expression changed. “How could I have offended them? I already said it’s Gu Qingyao…”
“Even if it has something to do with Gu Qingyao, how exactly did you offend them? How did Gu Qingyao trap you? Explain it properly.”
Yang Shiyun: “…”
“I… I… ” Yang Shiyun’s eyes gleamed. “It’s those two children! I only saw those two Chu children today. At first, I didn’t know who they were. You know that our family is planning to marry Yujiao to Mo Yang. So all this while, we have been instructing Yujiao to interact more with Mo Yang.
“But the girl from the Chu family kept harassing Mo Yang. She used all kinds of methods to block us and even gave us dirty looks. Yujiao and I reprimanded her a little, and in the end, Gu Qingyao sowed discord between us.
“At last, the two Chu children got angry and thought we looked down on them. The little boy wanted to go back immediately and complain to his father. It was Gu Qingyao who mentioned your partnership with the Chu family. The boy is only five or six years old. What does he know? It must have been Gu Qingyao who told him, which was why the Chu family decided not to work with you.”
Yang Shiyun would never say that this was the result of her mocking the two children. Then her status in the Yang family would fall.
She would push all the blame onto Gu Qingyao and then it would not matter.
Besides, it was Gu Qingyao’s fault. If she had told her the two children’s status earlier, then she would never have mocked the Chu children. She would certainly have made them happy.
Yang Xuhua looked at her somberly. He did not say anything, he just looked at her.
His dark eyes were so gloomy that they gave her chills. His expression was completely unfathomable.
He did not want to ask Yang Shiyun anymore because he knew that Yang Shiyun would certainly distort the facts.
He knew his younger sister. She was extremely arrogant, and her ambitions surpassed her abilities. After studying overseas for a few years, she was utterly disdainful of others. She felt that she was the most outstanding girl in the world.
And then there was that Yang Yujiao. The child from the second son’s family. Just because the eldest son’s side paid her a little more attention, her family doted on her. To the point that she looked down on all the other children. Ah!
Although Yang Xuhua was worried about an alliance between the Mo family and the Chu family, he did not trust his younger sister very much....
“Yang Shiyun, listen up. Even if you’ve studied for a few years overseas, the capital is not a place where your word counts for anything. The relationships between the various noble families in the capital are extremely complicated. If you want to become the mistress of the Mo family, your few skills are useless. Without the Yang family, you are nothing!”
Yang Shiyun’s eyes narrowed!
Yang Xuhua said icily, “Remember, from now on, you have to stop showing off. It’s not a shortcoming for a girl to be gentle and even a little timid. As long as you can depend on your family, no one will dare to look down on you. Gu Qingyao is now firmly entrenched as the mistress of the Mo family, not because of her abilities or her beauty, but because of her family background. Family background, do you understand?”
Yang Shiyun had not expected her older brother to speak to her like that.
She had worked so hard over the years to make herself more outstanding, to surpass all the young ladies in the capital. She had worked hard to build up her reputation, but in the end, her own brother was telling her that all her hard work was worthless and her standing was entirely dependent on her family?
