Perhaps due to concerns about the Marquis Mansion and the Lin Family, Jiang Yu didn’t have a falling out with Grandma Qin until she departed.

He feigned ignorance about the situation, even attempting to provide an explanation to prevent any misconceptions about past events.

Upon leaving, she left behind valuable gifts and remarked, “We’ll come to visit you again in due time.”

“Furthermore, there’s another matter I wish to share, Third Aunt. There’s a sizable residence in the capital registered under your name, consistently maintained by professionals.”

“Essentially, you’re suggesting that you’d like Third Aunt and her family to settle in the capital, with the Jiang Family overseeing all aspects.”

Grandma Qin replied, “Our life here is comfortable. We’ve no intention of relocating. ”

Jiang Yu responded, “Understood. I’ll relay your message to the Family Head.” After Jiang Yu and his son departed, Grandma Qin released a sigh of relief.

She confided in Qin Zhenzhen, saying, “You can’t imagine how haughty the Jiang Family can be. If not for the complex ties between the Marquis Mansion and the Lin Family, they might have forcibly taken you away, just as they intended for your brother.”

“They wouldn’t have approached us so diplomatically.”

Qin Zhenzhen comforted her, “Grandma, fear not. You won’t endure the Jiang Family’s bullying again.”

“I won’t permit those who once mistreated you to prosper!”

Grandma Qin asserted solemnly, “Revenge isn’t necessary. They’re formidable opponents.”

“As long as you lead a content life, free from subjugation, I’ll find solace.”

“Vengeance carries too steep a price. It’s not warranted!”

In the past, her heartless father not only yielded to his wife but also favored his legitimate children due to his wife’s family.

However, what added a peculiar twist was his penchant for taking several concubines into his fold, among them her mother—a frail woman from a modest background.

Those concubines found themselves subjected to worse treatment than even the lowliest servants. Tragically, her mother suffered torment to the point of death at the hands of her father’s wife, all because of her exceptional beauty.

At the tender age of five or six, she bore witness to this cruelty firsthand.

Her father’s response was not one of reprimand towards his wife; instead, he cautioned her to heed his wife’s dictates, lest she meet the same fate as her mother.

At that moment, she pledged to herself that she would carve out a place of distinction, refusing to be overshadowed by those born into privilege.

Determined to prove to all that she could blaze her own trail, she made good on that promise.

Her prowess in both culinary and medical domains stood unrivaled amongst her peers.

Her grace and erudition rivaled even her most privileged sisters.

This was precisely why she caught the attention of the Third Prince.

This was also why her destiny seemed sealed.

She was ensnared, subjected to humiliation, and robbed of her sight. She was acutely aware that the orchestrators were none other than her blood siblings and her own mother. It was clear to her that her father was not oblivious to this conspiracy either.

During that dark period, she fervently yearned for death.

Regret clawed at her; she wished she hadn’t shone so brightly.

Ultimately, her father ascended to the position of family patriarch, passing the torch to his eldest son—Jiang Yu’s father.

Effectively, the reins of the Jiang Family fell into Jiang Yu’s grasp.

In an ironic twist, she found herself on the same path as Jiang Yu, yet their enmity was stark.

If Qin Zhenzhen harbored thoughts of vengeance on her behalf, she would find herself in direct opposition to Jiang Yu and his associates.

Jiang Yu’s Elder Aunt, a formidable and titled Princess Consort, possessed an unyielding nature, potentially placing Qin Zhenzhen at a distinct disadvantage..
