"Miss Ji is truly a dutiful child." The Commandery Princess of Yong'an looked at Ji Liruo with even more satisfaction. Dutiful, kind, gentle — such a woman is indeed a good match for Ning'er.
Seeing the satisfied look in the Commandery Princess's eyes, Lady Ji felt even happier. Her husband was right; as long as they praised Liruo's dutifulness, the marriage would only become more secure. As long as Liruo becomes the wife of the young Marquis, her own status will naturally rise. Let's see if those little vixens dare to ensnare her husband then; when the time comes, no one will stand up for them if she scratches their faces.
Ji Liruo kept her head down, appearing shy. In reality, her eyes were filled with deep loathing and impatience. What her mother said didn't come from genuinely believing her to be dutiful, but was only said following her father's instructions.
How sad it is...
From childhood to adulthood, she truly worried a lot about her mother.
