A complicated look flashed across Madam Song's eyes as she watched Ke Meng leave.
Madam Song could not be blamed for treating her like a stranger. She was simply too beautiful. Now that she was homeless, who knew if Madam Song would harbor any evil thoughts?
"Sigh!" Madam Song sighed softly and returned to the courtyard helplessly.
Ke Meng did not go anywhere else. Instead, she returned to her room in the courtyard and sat in front of the mirror. She looked at herself in the mirror and her eyes flashed. She gently caressed her face with one hand.
"In the past, I used to think that as a woman, it was a blessing to have such a beautiful face. However, it was also this face that brought about the destruction of my family. Now that I was luckily saved, it was as if I was reborn. Now that I look at this extremely beautiful face again, I feel that it is the root of disaster."
She muttered to herself as she thought of Madam Xuanyuan's indifference and Madam Song's alienation. She knew that it was all because of this face.
"If I leave the Song family with such a beautiful face, who knows if I'll attract evil people like Cheng Wanli one day? If that's the case, I might as well destroy it …"
She seemed to be talking to herself. Her voice was terrifyingly calm. The hand that was caressing her face landed on the dressing table. She picked up a hairpin and slowly moved it to her face. Her gaze fell on the mirror.
She looked at her perfect and flawless face in the mirror. Her hands trembled slightly. She pursed her lips and slowly closed her eyes. The hairpin in her hand was pressed against her face. The cold touch of the hairpin made her involuntarily shiver. In the next moment, she exerted force in her hand. The hairpin pierced her skin and slowly slid downwards.
Fresh blood dripped down from the hairpin. As the hairpin slashed across her face, it left a deep cut. Due to the strength of the blow, her skin and flesh were slightly exposed. However, she tightly bit her lips and did not even make a sound. She only swallowed her tears and the blood that seeped out of her lips ….
Fengjiu and the others who were playing outside returned to the Song family mansion in the evening. Dinner was placed in the front courtyard of the Song family mansion. Madam Song thought that everyone had not sat down for a proper meal, so she wanted to have a meal with everyone tonight.
"Set the table properly. Move the flowers over there a little to make the place more spacious." Madam Song directed the servants to arrange the scene. Then, she thought of Ke Meng, who was in the guest courtyard. No matter what, she was still a guest of the residence. It would be too much if she didn't invite her over. Thus, she ordered the servant girl beside her: "Go and invite Miss Ke over for dinner tonight!"
"Yes." The maidservant responded and went to the guest courtyard.
"Mother." Song Mi 'er came over and looked at the busy people. She smiled and went forward to hold her hand: "Mother, who else do you want to invite to eat?"
"It's Miss Ke Mengke from the guest courtyard," Madame Song said.
"Oh, is it the girl you saved that night? Then I'll go invite him! In any case, I haven't seen her yet. "As she spoke, she called out to the maidservant," You don't have to go, I'll go. "As she spoke, she let go of the maidservant's hand and walked towards the guest courtyard.
When Madam Song saw this, she helplessly shook her head and ordered the maidservant, "Go see if the dishes are ready and have someone bring them up!" Then, she ordered another maidservant, "Have you prepared the fruits I asked you to prepare after the meal?"
