The Abandoned Wife of a Military Family: Your disguise has been exposed again.

Chapter 170 She Doesn't Regret

After Yun Yao left, the room became quiet.

"Weiwei, please sit down." At this moment, Madam Xu spoke up, breaking the silence.

Yunwei sat down as instructed.

Looking at her aloof face, Madam Xu said, “We sent someone to Qingyi Garden to invite you back to celebrate your father’s birthday, only to find out that you had moved to the county princess’s mansion.”

Upon hearing this, Yun Wei said calmly, "Yes, we moved."

"Then how come you..." Xu hesitated, unable to finish her sentence.

Yunwei understood what she meant; she was blaming her for not informing them.

If this had happened in the past, Madam Xu would have already confronted and reprimanded her.

Thinking that Xu had indeed changed a bit during this time, he explained, "It's nothing serious. I just moved some things over and settled in there. I didn't hold a formal housewarming party."

Seeing that she wasn't angry, Madam Xu breathed a sigh of relief and said cautiously, "Then why not hold a celebration? A housewarming is such an important occasion, it should be celebrated with a banquet and a lively atmosphere."

“I don’t think it’s necessary. Besides, I invited a few close friends over for dinner, so it was quite a lively occasion,” Yun Wei said.

Xu choked.

Earlier, she said she hadn't held a housewarming party, so she hadn't informed them, which made her feel a little better. But now, she said that she had actually invited friends to dinner to make it more lively, which made her feel uneasy.

The Yun family is her maternal family; she would rather invite her friends than them.

"What kind of friend is he/she?" Xu asked, twisting her handkerchief.

“You’ve met the Princess of Yue, Madam Cui, and Prince Jin,” Yun Wei said.

Upon hearing that it was these people, Madam Xu's expression visibly softened. "So it's them. Next time you have the chance, invite them over for dinner."

"We'll see," Yun Wei said indifferently. She really had nothing to say to them, so she got up and said to Madam Qi, "I bought some small things for Xia Jie'er. Can you take me there?"

Upon hearing this, Madam Qi smiled and said, "I'll take you there right away."

Seeing that she was heavily pregnant and had difficulty walking, Yunwei helped her up.

"Thank you, Weiwei," Qi said gratefully.

Yunwei didn't say anything, only asking, "Your belly is almost seven months along, isn't it?"

"Yes, it's been seven months already, and she should give birth before the New Year." Madam Qi gently stroked her belly, her face full of tenderness.

Seeing this, Yunwei glanced at her again.

Qi noticed this and asked, "Do you think I'm acting strangely?"

"Why do you say that?" Yunwei asked in return.

Qi paused, then suddenly smiled bitterly and said, "You look down on me, don't you?"

Yunwei was taken aback. "There's no question of whether I look down on you or not. I'm just a little confused."

Madam Qi sighed, "When I learned that your elder brother had kept a mistress, I was devastated and wanted to fight him to the death. But at that time, I was already pregnant and I also had Xia'er. What would happen to the children if something happened to me?"
So even if your elder brother wronged me, I can only swallow my pride and endure it, and I can only compromise.

Yunwei didn't expect that she would tell her these things.

She frowned and said, "Then are you blaming me?"

"What's it to blame you for?" Qi asked, puzzled.

“If I don’t interfere and reveal the location of Calabash Street, you and Yun Qi will be at peace,” Yun Wei said.

Qi shook her head. "No, quite the opposite. I am very grateful for your reminder. Otherwise, I would have been a complete fool. Moreover, if you hadn't exposed this matter, given Yunqi's personality, he would have only become more and more brazen. By the time I discovered it, it would have been too late."

Upon hearing this, Yun Wei said nothing more. She did not regret exposing Yun Qi's actions that day.

"On the contrary, I was blinded before and couldn't judge people." Qi held her hand, feeling very guilty. "Don't take it to heart."

Yunwei shook her head. "People tend to have preconceived notions, and besides, you haven't done anything wrong."

Yun Yao grew up in the Yun family and was pampered by Yun Yueshan and Madam Xu. As her daughter-in-law, Madam Qi naturally dared not offend Yun Yao.

Moreover, when she returned to the Yun family, Qi had already been married into the family for two years and had spent so much time with Yun Yao, so it was understandable that she would side with Yun Yao at that time.

Qi sighed, "I am very ashamed."

Although she didn't do anything bad to Yunwei, she remained indifferent and watched coldly when Yunwei and Yunyao had a dispute.

Looking back now, she feels a little regretful.

As soon as she stepped into Xia Jie'er's residence, a dark, indistinct object suddenly hurled itself at Yun Wei.

Yunwei turned her head to dodge.

"Snapped!"

The lump of something slammed into the door behind her.

She turned her head and saw that it was a lump of mud, and her brows furrowed slightly.

Just then, another lump of mud was thrown in her direction.

Yunwei dodged again by turning her head.

She looked at the little girl under the eaves, her hands covered in mud, and raised an eyebrow slightly. "Sister Xia?"

At this moment, Madam Qi understood what had happened. Furious, she scolded the girl under the eaves, "Yunxia, ​​how could you be so rude to your aunt?"

The little girl said in a childish voice, "Mother, you're wrong. I only have one aunt, not a big aunt."

Madam Qi was furious and shouted, "Who taught you such nonsense? Come here and apologize to your aunt right now!"

"I don't want to!" Yunxia turned her head away.

Qi was so angry that her chest heaved. She said to Yun Wei, "Weiwei, I'm so sorry. Xia'er is not usually like this. Someone must have said something to her."

Yunwei's gaze fell on Xia Jie'er, and she said calmly, "I also believe that a child has no bad intentions."

Xia Jie'er is only five years old, and I have rarely seen her before. Why did she start throwing mud at her as soon as she entered the door?
Thinking of this, she walked over to Sister Xia.

"Sister Xia, I brought you some fun things today, do you want them?" Yunwei coaxed gently.

"I don't care!" Xia Jie said, hands on her hips and head held high.

Yunwei chuckled, "You don't care? That's a real shame." As she spoke, she took the bundle from Tian'er's hand and took out many trinkets from it.

There are clay dolls, as well as cloth tigers, nine-linked rings, ceramic rattles, kites, and so on.

Xia Jie said she didn't care, but her eyes were uncontrollably drawn to the toys Yun Wei had taken out, and her mouth involuntarily opened wide.

"Since Sister Xia doesn't want them, then I'll give these things to other children to play with," Yunwei said, and then started to put the toys away.

Seeing this, Xia Jie rushed over and wouldn't let her accept it, saying, "I said it was a gift for me, you can't give it to anyone else."

"Oh, so Xia-jie'er has taken a liking to these toys again?" Yun Wei said with a half-smile.

Xia Jie'er's face instantly turned bright red, and she stammered, "My aunt wants to give it to me, how can I refuse? That would be too impolite."

Yunwei found it amusing. This girl, now she actually acknowledges her as her aunt?
"Wasn't it impolite of you to throw mud at me just now?"
