Aunt Lai trembled with rage upon seeing her daughter disobeying her!
Ye Daidi grabbed the wet nurse and ran away, stomping her feet while constantly retreating, choosing to keep her distance from this tigress of a mother.
Aunt Lai, not giving up on eavesdropping, tried to sneak into the next room to listen in, a room she had previously occupied for her miscarriage recovery.
Now, only he would occasionally sit there, and no one else was willing to step into that room unless Aunt Lai had the little maid bring in tea, pastries, and fruit to entertain her.
Aunt Lai pressed her ear against the wall, only to hear faint sounds from next door, unable to make out what they were talking about!
What could be so secretive???
In the living room next door, Mrs. Li was listening to Ye Fengqi recount to her mother the day's events.
"Mother, it was just a race, and I didn't provoke them by the roadside. The people racing with us wouldn't make way; how is that related to me?"
