Chapter 33 A Cousin Who Cares for You like Your Mother

Author: Fan Duo

"Your Grace!" Seeing Qiu Yelan coming out, Qu Shan and his family were all excited.

Qu Shan's mother, Mrs. Li was about sixty. She was born in Prince's Mansion of Xihe and had a talent for cooking. When she was only over 20, she took charge of the old Princess' diet.

People couldn’t tell his attitude towards Jiang Yashuang and Qiu Yelan from his expression at all. He was pleasant and graceful, "Weizhou, why are you here?""I was passing by. I saw someone seeking justice. So, I stopped to take a look," Chu Weizhou’s look was gloomy, "I didn’t think Commandery Princess Ningyi was so glib that she was able to pass the buck completely with a few words. Instead, she accused this poor couple for something they didn’t do. She even wanted to blame me."Q

    “Thank you for arriving in time,” after Chu Weize and Chu Weizhou left, Qiu Yelan stopped pretending to be pity. She walked out from behind Jiang Yashuang.

However, Qiu Yelan was here to be hostile today, so she said, "Besides, my aunt refers to me as a dog and smashes a tea bowl as soon as she sees me. Sure enough, uncle and aunt are feeling guilty?
