The Spirited Daughter-in-law and the Mountain Man - Chapter 1395 - Chapter 1395 Take one step at a time

Chapter 1395: Take one step at a time Chapter 1395: Take one step at a time “Qingyue, you’re truly kind!” Tao Meijiao immediately gave up the jewelry and walked over to her side, “A friend shouldn’t take advantage of another friend.

I appreciate the thought, but I’d better not take it.”
“It’s alright, take it if you like it.”
“Nothing is more important than you, I’d feel troubled if I took it.” Tao Meijiao waved her hands repeatedly, “Where is your husband?”
“He’s gone to the store.”
“Qingyue, I used to think your Dad and Mom were difficult to get along with, but now it seems…” She glanced around at the gifts in the room, “the fact that they sent you so many nice things shows that a first-class family has accepted you as their daughter-in-law.”
“Is that so,” she responded noncommittally, “Some things aren’t as simple as they appear on the surface.”
“What do you mean?”
“I think Shen Yun is just roping me in.

Perhaps…

she wants her son to take another concubine.”
Tao Meijiao said, “Are you suggesting that Lady Xiao wants Xiao Yuchuan to take Miss Gongsun as a concubine?

That’s impossible.

A young Lady from a first-class family has a noble status and is worthy of becoming the Empress, how could she become a concubine?”
“Yes, Miss Gongsun couldn’t possibly be a concubine.”
“Then…” Tao Meijiao’s eyes widened, “Are you saying that Lady Xiao is contemplating demoting you from main wife to concubine?”
“It must be so,” Su Qingyue said coolly, curling the corner of her lips disdainfully, “He who accepts favors is at the mercy of the giver.

Lady Xiao’s gifts aren’t given for nothing.

I’m just waiting for her to bring it up and see how big of a detour she’ll take.”
Tao Meijiao’s expression grew serious, “What are these favors worth?

How could you possibly be a concubine?

You are Xiao Yuchuan’s wife, wed through a proper marriage.”
“I’m not worried about this,” Su Qingyue lifted the teapot from the table and poured a cup of water, “It all depends on my third brother’s attitude.”
“From the way you speak, I feel like you don’t completely trust Xiao Yuchuan,” said Tao Meijiao, “I think Xiao Yuchuan values you more than his own life.

If you asked him to renounce his parents, he would certainly do it.”
With one hand, Su Qingyue elegantly tapped the lid against the rim of her cup, “Indeed.

However, I can tell that, in his heart, my third brother is actually more inclined towards recognizing his blood relatives.

As his wife, I don’t want to block his path out of my own selfish desires, fearing he might regret it and resent me later.

The power and riches of the world are within his easy reach, and he hasn’t yet experienced the highest level of glory and wealth.

He may not be able to resist the temptation.”
The Xiao couple were Yuchuan’s biological parents, and even if she wanted to kill them, it wouldn’t be appropriate considering Yuchuan’s feelings.

If she really took the lives of the Xiao couple, even if Yuchuan didn’t mind, it would create an invisible barrier between them aEUR” a kindred blood debt that couldn’t be dissolved.

The bond of blood was indeed a mysterious thing.

“What do you plan to do now?” Tao Meijiao was exceptionally worried.

“Take one step at a time.”
“The power of a first-class family is too great,” Tao Meijiao remarked as she observed Su Qingyue’s calm demeanor, “Anyone else would be beside themselves with worry, but you can remain so composed, it’s truly impressive.”
Smiling slightly with pursed lips, she said, “I know my own business well, let’s not talk about that anymore.

You came to say goodbye, didn’t you?”
“You’re so insightful,” she replied with a bitter smile, “I can’t possibly be with Xiao Yishan.

Living here is just adding to my sorrow.

I might as well go back to the Mansion.”
“Then you should go,” called Su Qingyue, “Yinzhu!”
“Your maid is here,” responded Maid Yinzhu respectfully as she entered the room from outside.

“Escort Miss Tao back.”
