Chapter 579 - 579 Jealous
Soon, Sun Miaoke also arrived. Mrs. Sun exchanged a few more polite words with Gu Wanning before going to look for her daughter.
After a while, Zhou Jiaying came in with her daughter in her arms.
Mrs. Yu, Mother Zhou, and Zhou Jiaqing followed behind.
When everyone saw that the baby had arrived, they immediately went forward and gave their small gifts.
When it was Zhou Ying’s turn, she took out a small gold bracelet engraved with the word “fortune” and handed it to Mrs. Yu. “I hope Miss Lexin will be blessed in the future.”
“Thank you.” Zhou Jiaying laughed.
After that, she took a serious look at Zhou Ying. Although Zhou Ying was dressed in the simplest clothes, she found her skin fair and supple. Her hair was black and luscious, indicating that she was living a very comfortable life.
Zhou Ying’s eyes were clear, revealing tenacity and guile. She looked completely different from the Zhou Ying back then. It was no wonder Zhou Jiaqing had no advantage in her hands.
At the same time, a sense of jealousy rose in her heart. Her status was clearly higher than Zhou Ying’s, and she was married into a better family. Yet, her life was not as comfortable as Zhou Ying’s.
At this time, Zhou Jiaying’s mother and Zhou Jiaqing, who were helping Zhou Jiaying greet the others, also returned.
Zhou Ying smiled and nodded at Mother Zhou, then turned around and left.
Zhou Jiaqing wanted to chase after her, but Mother Zhou stopped her.
Zhou Ying was no longer the same person she was. Moreover, since the old madam had already clarified that they no longer had any relationship with each other, there was no need for them to find trouble.
Although Zhou Jiaqing was indignant, she didn’t say anything else.
Soon, Consort Shu arrived, and everyone hurriedly stood up and bowed.
“Everyone, get up.” After Consort Shu finished speaking, she turned around and hugged Yang Lexin, saying, “Ah, our little darling is awake. Look at those big, watery eyes. They’re so beautiful.”
“Indeed, this child’s eyes are like yours.” Zhou Jiaying laughed.
“Oh, please.” Consort Shu smiled.
“It’s the truth. Your eyes are publicly recognized as the most beautiful of all.” Zhou Jiaying added.
“This child’s face is similar to Jiaying’s. She has a pair of dimples on her small oval face and looks so cute when she smiles.” Mrs. Su stepped forward with a smile.
When everyone heard this, they surrounded the child and praised her. Zhou Ying saw this and quickly went to the side to continue drinking her tea.
In the afternoon, after everyone had left, Zhou Jiaqing looked at Mother Zhou and asked, “Mom, Zhou Ying was so arrogant before. Why didn’t you let me teach her a lesson?”
“You’re just too impulsive when you’ve suffered before. Besides, your grandmother has already helped us draw a clear line with her, so don’t provoke her.
“Otherwise, when something happens, the ones who will lose face will be us.”
“Indeed, you really have to change your personality. Besides, quarrels can’t solve our problems, and you are only making yourself more angry.” Zhou Jiaying nodded in agreement.
Moreover, she had already found the best way to vent her anger. She would destroy Zhou Ying’s happy life when the time was right.
“You should learn more from your sister. Otherwise, when you get married in the future, you’ll suffer.” Mother Zhou chided her.
“You guys… Hmph, I’m going to see Lexin.” Seeing that none of them took her seriously, Zhou Jiaqing snorted in dissatisfaction and ran out.
Zhou Jiaying shook her head and asked, “Mother, is there any progress on her marriage? Why don’t we just find a stable, honest, wealthy family for her?
“With her personality, she won’t have a good life in the future if it isn’t a family we can suppress.
“She might even bring trouble to our family..”
