Ling Tao, Mom, what are you talking about? Of course, you have the right to send someone away.

Hearing that Ling Taos tone was softening, Madam Ling started to make excuses for Liu Fen. I think Miss Liu had a point there. She was concerned that, if our Tianya becomes a useless lazy b.u.m after she married into the Ruan Family, her in-laws will think badly of her. She was crude with her words, but with a good intention. She is from the countryside and has a simple mind. Everything she said was based on the customs from her home. Shes only been here for a couple of weeks. Its not surprising that she has no idea about the life of a daughter from a prestigious family. You dont have to be so hard on her.

Madam Ling was good at bending the truth. Liu Fens small-mindedness suddenly became her sincere concern for Ling Tianya, which put Ling Tao on the spot.

Noticing that Ling Taos att.i.tude was changing, Madam Ling continued, Plus, Miss Lius sister is the daughter-in-law of your third uncle from the countryside. He is the one who took care of Ling Tianxin for a while. Everyone thought Ling Tianxin was someone elses child back then, but your third uncle didnt mistreat her because of it. For the sake of your third uncle, we should take care of Miss Liu, dont you think?

Madam Lings seemingly sympathetic and reasonable argument convinced Ling Tao, who was easily persuaded. He started to feel that his att.i.tude toward Liu Fen was a little harsh.

Miss Liu, I misunderstood you earlier. I hope you can forgive me.

Ling Taos apology made Liu Fen happy. She smiled too big, and her face started to hurt, making her scrunch into an ugly expression again.

Then, Liu Fens face caught Ling Taos attention once again. So, you have not told me, what happened to your face? Why did Yaya have someone beat you?

Feeling happy that Ling Tao finally brought it up, Liu Fen was eager to complain with teary eyes. Madam Ling cut her off and said in a dismissive tone, Nothing serious. It was just a misunderstanding. Theres nothing for you to worry about.

Ling Tao was confused. It was his mother who was accusing Yaya of beating people and being sn.o.bby. Now she was saying that it was all a misunderstanding and he shouldnt worry about it.

Liu Fen looked at Madam Ling perplexedly. Why were they not complaining anymore?

Madam Ling sneered at Liu Fen, who was clueless that her words had irritated Ling Tao.

She had just calmed him down, and if she continued picking on Ling Tianya, Ling Tao would only be p.i.s.sed off and think that she and Liu Fen were working together against Ling Tianya. That would be bad for everyone.

Madam Ling sighed inside. The only reason she kept this dummy by her side and tried to prop her up was that she liked Liu Fens child-bearing hips and the twins gene in the Liu Family.

The number one priority was to get Liu Fen in Ling Taos bed and get her knocked up. As soon as the Ling Family had another baby, Ling Tao would not pay attention to Ling Tianya anymore.

With that thought in mind, Madam Ling swallowed her complaints about Ling Tianya.

Suddenly, Ling Tianya, who had been watching the scene for a while, emerged from the second floor.

Dad, you are back.

When he heard the voice of his daughter, Ling Tao turned around and was shocked to see Ling Tianyas ghostly white face.

Yaya, are you okay? You dont look too well.
