Madam Wang heard that Wu Yining wanted the Jade Face Cream and was so frightened her face turned pale. Wasn't she supposed to be out playing with Princess Ping Xi? How come she returned wanting the Jade Face Cream?
She went to her little courtyard in person and saw Wu Yining's face slightly swollen, with faint marks of fingers. A surge of anger arose within her, and she demanded, "Who hit you?"
Wu Guanyu is the very life of Madam Wang, her precious jewel, but Wu Yining is also her cherished Bright Pearl. She herself couldn't bear to lay a heavy hand on her, yet now someone has dared to hit her.
Wu Yining was initially unaffected, but seeing Madam Wang like a protective mother beast, the feeling of grievance surged forth immediately.
"Mother, it was that vile girl Wufu that hit me. You must avenge your daughter!" Wu Yining collapsed into Madam Wang's arms, her eyes reddening. Not to mention Madam Wang, she herself had never endured such humiliation and beating in all her years.
