As Lady Du entered the inner room, she sat deliberately on the bed, looked serious, and said: "Wei'er, I have never told you about your maternal grandfather's family. Today, I will tell you some of it."
Upon hearing her mother's serious tone, Cai Wei couldn't help but pull a face, with a helpless gesture she said, "What do you want to say..."
Lady Du, ignoring her daughter's dismissive look, stared out the window and said reflectively, "Actually, I am the illegitimate daughter from the Duke An's Mansion in the capital, the Fourth Miss people often talk about."
The moment she said this, Cai Wei's instant deflection and dismissal turned into utter disbelief and astonishment. She couldn't believe her mother held such a high status!
Seeing her daughter's bewildered expression, Lady Du gave a self-mocking laugh, "The grand Fourth Miss of Duke An's Mansion, sounds prestigious and impressive, doesn't it?"
"Yes, yes, yes..."
