Wang Yue didn’t expect that she didn’t seek trouble with Mei Shu, but Mei Shu took the initiative to come to her. Her sharp voice immediately resounded in the courtyard.

...

“You little brat! Who are you scolding? You just came back from the countryside and already seduced a man to drive you home. You stayed outside until dark and didn’t even bother to inform the family. I think you lack education! No manners at all!”

“So, you want to educate me now?” Mei Shu stood on the side, looking at her with interest.

Wang Yue felt inexplicably guilty, but considering that she was Mei Shu’s stepmother after all, she straightened her back immediately, “I am going to educate you. What about it? Do you think I don’t have the right?”

Inside the villa.

The butler, Zhao Yan, heard the commotion outside and hurriedly ran out to advise, “Madam, Master is about to come back. He values the peace of the family. If the young lady hasn’t made a significant mistake, it’s better not to have conflicts at this time.”

But ATei Mu was not concerned.

It was only right for her mother to reprimand Mei Shu. Even if her father knew, he would only blame Mei Shu for being disobedient and causing disturbances in the household. He would never blame her mother.

“Mom, Mei Shu dares to defy you now. If you don’t teach her a lesson, won’t she look down on you even more in the future? Dad just doesn’t want any disharmony in the family, but he never said you have to swallow your anger! You’ve been married to him for many years. Are you still afraid of being blamed for educating your daughter?”

Hearing this, Zhao Yan advised with concern, “Madam, Master is about to arrive. Please think twice. Considering it’s her first offense, you might as well let it go this time.”

“Zhao Yan, you are just the butler of the Mei family. Do you want to make decisions for me?” Wang Yue waved her hand irritably. “Enough, this matter doesn’t concern you. Go and see how the kitchen is doing.”

“Madam, please reconsider,” Zhao Yan still tried to persuade her.

Wang Yue became even more impatient. “I said for the last time, you are not needed here!”

“Uncle Zhao, you can go to the kitchen to help. 1’11 be fine,” Mei Shu didn’t want to see Zhao Yan being bossed around by Wang Yue.

Zhao Yan sighed, glanced at Mei Shu with concern, and then turned back to the villa. However, he didn’t go to the kitchen; he stood by the window, still worried, ready to rush out to save Miss if things turned bad later.

Once Zhao Yan left, Wang Yue threw out a tantrum. She called a maid who was sweeping the courtyard and told her, “Bring a stick. This girl doesn’t listen to advice, defies her elders, give her a good beating!”

“What?”

Upstairs, Mei Yan had been eavesdropping on the commotion downstairs. Hearing that Wang Yue was going to beat his sister, she was frightened and jumped down from the windowsill, running to his brother who was still playing games on the chair. “Brother, Wang Yue wants to beat sister. What should we do?”

Mei Jing’s brows furrowed slightly, his hands pausing mid-game. “She shouldn’t, right? Is Wang Yue that foolish? Just after Mei Shu returned home, she’s going to beat her. Won’t Father let her off?”

“I heard it with my own ears!” Mei Yan saw that he didn’t believe her and even continued playing games, so she grabbed his phone directly.

Mei Jing became anxious, “Hey, I’m about to win!”

“Our sister is about to be beaten, and you’re still playing games?” Mei Yan rolled his eyes at him and dragged him to the window.

Mei Jing put him on the windowsill, and they both leaned out to look downstairs. Sure enough, they saw Wang Yue ordering an innocent maid to beat Mei Shu with a stick.

But the maid didn’t dare to do it.

How could she, a servant, dare to beat Miss?

Wang Yue became even angrier that she couldn’t get the maid to do her bidding. These people didn’t treat her as the mistress in their hearts! Angrily, she called over her trusted maid, Old Wang, and said, “Beat her for me!”

Old Wang was Wang Yue’s distant relative brought from her maternal family, and she naturally regarded Wang Yue’s words as an imperial decree. She snatched the stick from the maid and was about to hit Mei Shu.

Mei Jing’s heart tightened, and he instinctively shouted, “Stop!”

Suddenly interrupted, Mei Mu, who had been enjoying the show, was annoyed. She looked at the two similar faces, “Mei Jing, Mei Yan, mind your own business. Go back and play games. Don’t meddle in this.”

“But that’s my sister. Of course, I have to care!” Mei Yan propped himself up on the windowsill, stood up, and pressed against the windowpane to get a better view.

Mei Jing quickly supported him.

Mei Yan didn’t care, as he could see things more clearly this way.

“Aunt Wang, you can’t hit my sister! She’s a girl! Didn’t you say that girls shouldn’t be hit when they make mistakes?”

Whenever Mei Mu made mistakes, Wang Yue just laughed it off. Mei Jing had asked once, and Wang Yue had said that girls needed to be treated with love and indulgence. Even if they made mistakes, they didn’t need to be harshly disciplined; all they needed was gentle persuasion.

But now, why was she going to hit her sister directly?

A gleam flashed in Mei Mu’s eyes. “Mei Shu is being disrespectful, and if she’s not punished, she won’t learn her lesson.. Don’t you remember how she usually bullies you and Mei Jing? If Mom lets her go upstairs now, she’ll definitely check your homework and forbid you from resting!”
