Chapter 29

Vows to change her fate

Every time she had to do so. It reminded her that she was a shu daughter! Not to mention only her but her mother and maternal grandmother were shu born. It seems that being born as concubine's daughter were their fate!

In this life, she wouldn't let her child have the same fate! To make that happen she could only depend on herself. That's what her mother taught her.

But she never expected for such a big problem to happen today. When she saw her mother earlier. Lian Jin Rong told her to endure. She had to endure in order for them to pay everything back later!

Fortunately, her father didn't confine her as well!

Arriving in front of her mother's courtyard she knocked on the door, but, even after realising that it was her the small maid took a long time before she let her in. These people really listen to her father's words!

But, her father orders were stupid! He only banned her mother from leaving her courtyard. He never said that others couldn’t come in.

As soon as she entered she slapped the little maid. The little girl wanted to cry but she was scared of An Yan Ran and weakly said "Miss…"

"What? Didn't think you were the door god? You still know that I am your young miss? Lian Xiao pavilion hasn't fallen yet! Are you trying to pick a new master?". Shouted An Yan Ran. The little maid was already kneeling on the ground, shaking her head.

“This salve wouldn’t dare, wouldn’t dare…”

An Yan Ran wanted to continue, but her mother called her from inside:

"Yan Ran you shouldn’t care about these useless things. Come, your mother has something to tell you…"

An Yan Ran immediately entered her mother’s room and looked at Lian Jin Rong laying on the bed. Tears filled her eyes, but she smiled calling her mother:

"Mom, this daughter is fine! I just went to Xi Wuyuan. An Qing Ran promised me that she would plead for you. Father stayed in East Warm Pavillion, this daughter will go see him in the morning. This daughter thinks that if we remind him about all the love mother gave him all these years he will lift the ban."

Lian Jin Rong's face was very pale. In reality, the 20 strikes didn't really hurt her, the servant hit her cotton skirt. But the bitterness and anger in her heart caused internal injuries! Her chest felt stuffy, she could vomit blood!

"Forget that! You were not there and didn't see what happened today. It looked like your father wanted to serve all relationship with us! He fears that our shu birth will bring him disgrace! Yan Ran, in this life mother as only one wish. It's for you and Ming Xuan to get ride of this shu status. Mother will fight for this! What about you? Now that this happens, mother doesn't know what will happen. If that woman gets everything back, we will not lead a good life…"

An Yan Ran nodded. "This daughter knows."

Her words were simple but very solemn.

Lian Jin Rong looked at her daughter who had just turned ten years old. She knew this girl would have a better life than her in the future!

"Yan Ran remember! You have to endure! If you have to build a good relationship with An Qing Ran you must stop visiting mother. It is best if others do not see you coming to this courtyard. You have to cut your relation with this mother do you understand? Since mother fell out of favour and may never gain it again. Do you understand?"

"I understand," said An Yan Ran coldly.

Lian Jin Rong touched her daughter's cheek. Looking proudly at her little face:

"Oh, my daughter I wronged you. How many young ladies can actually compare to your looks? Remember what mother said! What this mother couldn’t accomplish you have to accomplish! Stay far away from mother courtyard!"

An Yan Ran's eyes were filled with hatred.

"Mother. You should just recuperate from your wound and trust this daughter."

Lian Jin Rong shook her head

"Now you will have to face mother alone. Well, mother is dumb, but you have to be wary of Qing Ran. Today mother felt that there was something wrong with that girl."

An Yan Ran shook her head in response

"I like it! I like the idea of competing with that woman and her daughter."

A sneer appeared at the corner of her mouth, an excited look in her eyes. The wickedness apparent on her beautiful little face.
