“You’er, don’t talk back to your father. Your father is thinking for your own good. You’re a girl but you don’t learn needlework, ‘Female Virtues’ or ‘Female Disciplines.’ You spend all day wielding spears and knives. I’m worried about you. That’s why I lecture you.”

She couldn’t help but be gloomy. Fortunately she came over. Otherwise, not only would they not obtain their objective, but if this darned girl complained, then wouldn’t they [Wang Yiping and Mu YingRui] suffer a loss?
Thinking of this, Wang Yiping said softly to Mu YingRui, “Laoye, speak gently to You’er. You have good intentions but with your temper, You’er would misunderstand.” She winked at him.
Huh! Good intentions. It would be strange if you two have good intentions. One played a good person, one played a bad person. You think others are fools? I was deceived by your fake mother’s tenderness. If I’m deceived a second time, then I deserve to go to hell! But I’ve been to that hell in my previous life. It’s both of your turns to go there this lifetime.
Zi You coldly sneered to herself. She grabbed Wang Yiping’s arm and smiled; “Only mother knows how to love me. Father only knows how to scold me. You don’t have to worry. You’er knows propriety. Actually, I did not neglect needlework, ‘Female Virtues’ or ‘Female Disciplines.’ If father doesn’t believe, he can test me. As to martial arts, I didn’t run around with swords. I just followed grandfather to learn internal strength to strengthen my physical fitness so people won’t gossip about it. The last time daughter was sick, it scared people. If people know that Great Yan’s Great General, who’s the most powerful in martial arts, had a granddaughter with such a weak body, wouldn’t the General’s Manor be a laughingstock?”

Mu YingRui saw Wang Yiping’s wink and heard Zi You’s words. His heart couldn’t help but jump. When he recalled that Zi You’s illness was caused by his and Wang Yiping’s poisoning, he guiltily lowered his head.
The earlier anger disappeared without a trace. He put on a fake smile and air of concern, “Ah! Father is just like your mother. I’m just afraid you’ll be absorbed with learning martial arts and neglect what girls should learn. It’s better if girls are more gentle and quiet or how else would they get married? After the festival, the teacher your mother found would arrive. Don’t disappoint me or your mother and learn etiquette properly.”

Wang Yiping saw and she anxiously looked at Mu YingRui. He nodded and immediately tried to stop her, “Don’t be in a hurry. Father still has something to ask you.”
Zi You knew they wanted to bring up the maidservant thing. The speech before was to give themselves an out so that she straightforwardly agree to what they want. When Zi You thought of how her own biological father faking and manipulating his words, she couldn’t help but want to scold him. What father? He wasn’t even a dog or a pig! To fulfill his and his woman’s wishes, he was willing to do all sorts of immoral things!
Zi You’s heart was filled with hatred but her face was expressionless. She faintly smiled with pure-like-water eyes causing the two to shamefully turn away.
Mu YingRui couldn’t help but sweat a bit. His daughter’s eyes were terrifying. It seemed like they could see through everything.
