Chapter 1336 - Aiming at Di Ling Yan? (5)
Ma… Madam?
Mu Xue instantly stopped on the spot. She could already see the mocking glances coming her way from the other maids so it was very awkward.
“Little Princess, why are you calling me madam?”
“Big Brother told me the good-looking ones are the big sisters, and the not so good-looking ones are the madams.”
Big Brother is so amazing, it must be right if he says that.
Mu Xue’s face turned increasingly green, due mainly from anger and embarrassment at being called ugly. However, she’s not moronic enough to lash out at the princess in her current state here in the palace.
“Little Princess, you got your dress all dirty, why don’t I help you wash up and get clean?” Forcing a smile, the girl suggests shamelessly.
But before the idea could be taken up, Mu Ying the older sister had already stepped in knowing what the younger girl intended: “Mu Xue, I will take care of the princess, you don’t need to get invovled.” That said, the proud and strong-willed lady then turns back to the baby princess: “How about it Princess, do you want me to help you wash up?”
Smiling with big innocent eyes: “Okay, I’ll trouble Sister Mu Ying then.”
Mother said, good children should be polite, only then will they be liked.
Now Mu Xue could no longer hold back the disgusted and venomous light in those eyes of hers. For one thing, it’s widely recognized among her leopard tribe that she’s the better looking one. Imagine being called a madam and the other being called a sister, that’s an obvious jab at her ego and pride.
It can’t be, is the princess as blind as the king?
“Little Princess,” holding her breath in order to suppress the anger, “how come you call Mu Ying a sister while calling me madam?”
Biting her thumb like she’s being lectured, Di Ling Yan answers honestly with a look of worry: “But… Mu Ying is better looking than you.”
Although they are not anywhere close to being as good as Mother, but at least…. Mu Ying’s scent doesn’t put me off.
Yes, the main reason the baby girl doesn’t like Mu Xue was because of the scent she gave off. It made Di Ling Yan uncomfortable. Heck, if it wasn’t for her own worry of bothering Di Cang, the peachy girl might’ve already driven the conceited leopard girl away by now.
“Impudent!” The nearby guard snaps out with annoyance: “How dare you! If the princess wants to call you a madam then you are a madam, how dare you question Her Highness?”
As resentful as she was, Mu Xue kept silent and merely clenched her fist in frustration. This demon soldier is also a servant, how dare he scold me?
“I just want to help the princess wash up, there’s no other meaning. It’s Mu Ying who is always trying to compete with me.” she attempts to explain.
This woman must also be going after the king, otherwise why else is she always seeking the princess’s grace? She’s just like me, wanting to be a consort.
“Come Princess, I’ll take you to go wash up now,” Mu Ying wants to pick up the baby girl but was taken aback when Di Ling Yan ducked to one side.
“Mother said, only good children will be liked. I can walk so I will do so on my own. I don’t want Mother to be angry at me for constantly riding on others.”
After this speech, the little peachy girl didn’t say more and toddled forward. Though her steps are still wobbly from a lack of practice, she nevertheless managed to not fall this time.
Meanwhile in the back, Mu Xue glared out in disgust and contempt at this scene. In her view, demons should be able to run and walk very early on. Having two years of life and still being unable to walk was a humiliation in her eye!
