After Wei Ruo finished speaking, Mo mo Li panicked and quickly stopped her: “No, no, no, I’m not hurt!”

How could Mo Mo Li’s reaction speed be compared to Xiumei? Xiumei managed to touch Mo mo Li’s knee in a swift motion.  

But what Xiumei’s palm touched is not the hard knee bones, but a soft thing.

Xiumei realized, and with a quick eye and hand, she leaned under Mo mo Li’s skirt and removed the knee pads tied to her knees.

When the knee pads appeared in front of everyone, they all showed surprised expressions, and after a moment, into contempt.

Wei Ruo said calmly: “Mo mo really values her health. She didn’t forget to protect her knees when she came to apologize to me.”

Mo mo Zhang happened to come over to visit Wei Ruo to talk about something. As soon as she arrived at the entrance of Tingsong Garden, she saw this scene and couldn’t help but burst out laughing.

With Mo mo Zhang taking the lead, the other maids who were watching also laughed.

Hearing the mocking laugh of the crowd, Mo mo Li felt ashamed and angry. She grabbed the knee pad in Xiumei’s hand, turned around, and ran away.

Xiumei smiled and walked back to Wei Ruo’s side with a smile: “Miss, how did you know that she has tied knee pads?”

“The surface of the bluestone tiles on the ground here is rough and uneven, and even the young knees can’t bear it when kneeling down, let alone Mo mo Li’s age. It’s not like she came to apologize to me sincerely, so she naturally can’t bear to let herself suffer.” Wei Ruo analyzed.

“I see, Miss is smart!”

“My Meimei is also quick witted!” 

“That’s why I’m suitable to be by Miss’s side for the rest of my life!” Xiumei said with a smile.

The master and servant returned to the courtyard, chatting and laughing, while the rest of the onlookers dispersed.

Mo mo Li hurriedly ran back to Wangmei Garden.

Seeing Mo mo Li come back in a disheveled state, Wei Qingwan worriedly asked about the situation: “Mo mo, what’s wrong with you?”

“Miss, what’s going on? I haven’t been in the countryside for two months, why has the eldest young lady’s temperament changed so much?” Mo mo Li still couldn’t believe it.

“Um…… I don’t know either, I’ve never understood my sister.”

Wei Qingwan lowered her head and murmured: “In the past, Mo mo, you always said that my sister was a vulgar and arrogant person, and she pretended to be decent in front of our parents and brothers. But for such a long time, I have never seen my sister being vulgar and arrogant, but instead, she often uses etiquette to suppress me.”

Wei Qingwan said again: “Just now, when you said you were going to teach her some lessons, I stopped Mo mo because of this.”

Mo mo Li furrowed her brows and said angrily: “It seems that I underestimated Wei Qingruo before! Miss, don’t worry, I was hasty this time. Now that I’m back, there’s plenty of time to fight her!”

“Mo mo, this is not good…… What if……”

“Miss, don’t worry, these are all my own ideas. Even if something happens later, I will take responsibility alone and won’t drag you down!” Mo mo Li assured Wei Qingwan.

“How could I? Mo mo, you’re doing all this for me! How can I stay out of this?”

“It’s all Wei Qingruo’s fault that I was punished. I already had a grudge against her. This time Miss begged for mercy on my behalf and allowed me to return to the mansion a month earlier, so I will return your kindness. Please don’t try to persuade me, Miss.”

Mo mo Li had made up her mind.

Two nights later, while everyone in the Wei family was drinking tea after dinner, Wei Mingting, who had not been home for seven days, suddenly returned.

In a suit of armor, his battle robe had not yet taken off, his face was covered in dirt, and his hair was disheveled.
