Zhao shi let out a cry of "Ah ya!" and then pulled her son close to her. Even though Wei Yunfeng had provoked first, Zhao shi glared angrily at Wei Ling'er. "What are you doing? You scared Yunfeng! How can you act like a elder sister? My husband is still here, do you think you have some power? Do you not care about us at all? If we were gone, could you even take care of your younger brother?"

Wei Guang pulled his wife's arm, "Just keep quiet."

"Why are you being so quiet? I'm her mother, it's my right to scold her. She just wanders around all day with no direction. People who hold official positions live such glamorous lives, but she acts like she has no capabilities and frightens even Yunfeng."

Weiyunfeng was also good at acting, and at this moment he even squeezed out two tears, "Mother, elder sister is too frightening, like a madman."

Wei Ling'er looked at her younger brother coldly, "Yes, I'm crazy. Even if I am crazy, it was you who drove me mad."

She looked at the fuming Zhao, "I don't expect you to treat your daughters like precious jewels like other families. I work so hard, just hoping that you can treat me and my younger brother fairly. Does it matter how capable I am? In your eyes, am I still not as good as him, this waste of space?"

Wei Ling'er choked back tears as she accused him, this was something she had wanted to ask for a long time.

She envies the Fu family very much. The daughter of the Fu family is treated like a little princess in the Fu family, everything prioritizes the daughter, whether it's the older generation or the younger generation.

It's not just the Fu family, even those related to the Fu family have always treated their daughters with respect.

Zhao compared her voice, "What are you shouting? After becoming an official, do you speak to your mother like this? I raised you by studying hard, expecting that you would be capable. Now, you are being rebellious and disobedient, a daughter comparing herself to a son! My son will carry on the family line in the future."

Wei Ling'er shook her head, pushed Zhao Shi aside who was blocking her way, and left without looking back.

Weiguang tried to pull, but Weiling'er didn't want to give him face either.

"Oh dear, what have you done? You've scared her away. What are we going to do now?" Wei Guang's concern for his daughter was merely a way to get more from her.

Zhao rolled her eyes dramatically. "She's still at it, acting like we don't exist? She dares! If she really doesn't care about us, I'll report her to the authorities. As a court official, if she neglects her parents, her career will be over."

Zhao was also angry. "If I had known she would be so ungrateful, I shouldn't have spent money on her education. She should have married early and brought more dowry for my son."

Wei Yunfeng snorted coldly, “Mother, she just called me a waste.”

“She’s worthless! If she doesn't get married now, wait until she becomes an old maid. Who would want her then?” Zhao shi said this, but as soon as she thought about it, she couldn't let this happen. How could she possibly get the dowry money if that happened?

Wei Ling'er walked aimlessly, she was really heartbroken.

Why am I trying so hard? It's understandable that my family doesn't understand, but they're actually holding me back.

So-called family members are like ghosts, sucking away her vital energy, they aren't even as kind to her as outsiders.

My parents have been gone for so long, they've never cared about me. They don't even ask if I'm tired or hungry when I get back.

She felt that the three of them were a family, while she was an outsider.

She felt down and wanted to talk to someone.

Fu's Flower Shop is still booming. The newly launched flower varieties bloom in gorgeous splendor, like beautiful young maidens in their prime, shyly being admired and taken home by those who appreciate them.

Wei Ling'er stood for a while, and found that no one greeted her. She grabbed a busy young man, "Is Fu Tianbao here?"

"You must be new here and don't know her. 'Is there something you need from Young Master Tianbao?'

"Yes, he is, isn't he?" Wei Ling'er's eyes were filled with joy and excitement. "Tell him, Wei Ling'er is looking for him."

“Oh, Young Master Tianbao is counting inventory in the back. You wait a moment.”

Wei Ling'er nodded, watching the young man hurriedly run toward the back and then come out again. Wei Ling'er's smile remained on her face, "Has he come?"

The young man was a bit afraid to look into her eyes, his gaze flickering away.

"What's wrong? Is he okay?"

"The young man chuckled twice. 'No…no problem, it's just... our Young Master Tianbao said he's very busy right now and probably doesn't have time to see you, please go back.'"

Wei Ling'er frowned, "Impossible, Tianbao wouldn't have disappeared. Didn't you relay the message properly? And are you sure you heard correctly? I'm looking for Fu Tianbao, not that Meng fellow."

"Miss, you're right, it's Tianbao Young Master. Don't get me wrong, this day, there are several young ladies who want to see our two young masters, one after another, we've gotten used to it."

It's understandable that other women would covet the wealth and status of the Fu family.

But Wei Ling'er couldn't accept that Fu Tianbao didn't see her.

"What are you doing? You can't come in here..." The young man was anxious to see Wei Ling'er starting to force her way in.

The customers buying flowers also looked over, and there were indeed the relatives of officials here. After all, buying flowers is to make oneself happy, and by letting someone else buy them, it's not necessarily what they themselves like.

Wei Ling'er had also attended one or two banquets in the capital, and some people still recognized her. ???.biQuPai.

She was a proud person. Looking at the young man, her eyes were filled with resentment, "I'll say it again, I want to see Fu Tianbao."

"The lads were all crying, 'It's not that I won't let you see him, it's Young Master Tianbao who said no, Granny, please spare me! I'm just a simple worker, what have I done to deserve this?'"

"Shut up!" Wei Ling'er tried to barge in again, but the young fellow didn't want to lose such a good job. He had to stop her no matter what.

He was still thinking of not hurting the young lady, but he didn't want his arm to be pulled with such agonizing pain, as if it were about to break. He cried out in pain.

Some people were still about to make fun of him, but when they saw his face turn pale instantly and beads of sweat forming on his forehead in such a short time, they stopped.

Just as they were about to come over, a voice came from the backyard, “You all go busy yourselves.”

"Add treasure!" Wei Ling'er glared angrily at the young man, then when she saw Fu Tianbao, she was truly beyond description with joy.

This has been my harbor for so many years.

"Tien Bao, this fellow isn't relaying the message properly. He says you don't want to see me," Wei Ling'er said.

Fu Tianbao's face was gloomy, and he glanced at the young man who was in so much pain on the ground that he was about to faint. "Uncle Wang, take him to my Fifth Uncle's medical hall."

Thank you, sir.

Wei Ling'er discovered that Fu Tianbao didn't attend to her right away, and even in his eyes, a young boy was more important than herself.

He wasn't like that before.

And when Fu Tianbao finally looked over, she found that his expression was somewhat strange.

"He didn't misunderstand, I made him say that!" Fu Tianbao said coldly.
