Zi You knew this was the face her aunt was giving her . She knew her aunt was still not in favor of her sons learning martial arts .
Zi You did not reveal it or explain . She would wait until she taught her aunt’s two sons into well-rounded, in both civil and martial talents, and let her aunt be convinced then .
In her previous life, after Zi You’s death, Née Liu also followed . Her heart hurt thinking of the three weak underage boys left behind .
In this life, she must let uncle’s sons become pillars of society versed in the pen and the sword and able to stand on their own .
Zi You silently swore an oath . She took out the Jasper hairpin she bought for Née Liu and smilingly inserted it into her hair . “Thank you aunt, for believing in You’er . ”

Née Liu looked at the hairpin . It was pure Jasper without any blemish . She knew it was expensive .
Her heart happy and touched, Née Liu feigned anger, “Really, you bought so many slaves and not even a beaded flower for yourself . But you bought me such a valuable hairpin…this child…You didn’t buy your mother a present? Although… after all…”
Née Liu looked at Zi You with a distressed face . She didn’t know how to express her meaning .
She didn’t have to explain and Zi You already understood . Wang Yiping was hypocritical but still her legitimate stepmother . If she did not perform well, an un-filial hat would be put on her and she would be scolded .
Zi You peacefully smiled and comforted Née Liu, “Rest assured, aunt . You’er understands . I have gifts for both father and mother . ”
