Chapter-88: old lady lark visits Miss Celia Yates
"Of course..." Wendy Lark exuded confidence and there was light in her eyes. This is the confidence that Miss Yates has never seen in other girls. As soon as she left, she took her family away to help.
Miss Celia Yates felt uneasy and closed the door tightly. Her beautiful face revealed a trace of fragility and uneasiness. How should she choose? She didn't want to be a criminal, but where could a girl go alone? It was dangerous outside.
The maid embraced her young lady with eyes full of pity, "Young lady, I don't think it's reliable. How old is she? No matter how much the family dotes on her, they will never let her interfere in her brother's marriage.
I don't know what she is thinking. The rules of the Lark family are really a mess, too chaotic." They actually let an unmarried girl come to discuss things.
Who are they looking down on? Fourth Miss Yates looked confused, like a lost deer, "But what does she want? I have nothing."
"You have your mother's family, your father and brothers to rely on..." The maid was a little weak, obviously lacking confidence, "The master is the official, as long as he pleads with the King the Lark family can be exempted from punishment.
The Lark family must be counting on this." Fourth Miss Yates smiled bitterly, "Then do you think my father will beg for mercy?" The maid was silent for a moment. No! If she wanted to, she would have told the King long ago. "The master is selfless."
The maid also felt a little resentful in her heart, but she advised earnestly, "Miss, don't blame the master. You should write more letters to repair your relationship with your mother's family in the future.
You should know that a woman's confidence is her mother's family. With the Imperial Official position, the second branch of the Lark family will support you and praise you. No one can surpass you."
She is loyal and devoted to her lady, but she was born a servant after all, and her vision and experience are limited. You want your husband's family to provide for you before you even get married, just because your father is an official?
Even though the status of the two families is very different and the Lark family has become prisoners, they are still the ones who dominate the future of the fourth young lady, unless the engagement is cancelled. There was a knock on the door.
The master and servant immediately fell silent, looking uneasy. Who was it? "Miss Yates, our Lark family's ancestor is here, open the door quickly." Ancestor…? Old lady Mu? Fourth Miss Yates stood up suddenly, only then did she remember the existence of this person.
The maid was so anxious that she was spinning around. "Oh no, I was so rude for not paying my respects to the old lady right away. Why didn't the people from the second house remind me?" Fourth Miss Yates took a deep breath and said, "Go open the door."
Old lady Lark and her eldest daughter in law Xavia came in. The wife of Sander lark Yuna took the initiative to introduce them. Miss Celia Yates didn't have time to take a closer look before she bowed and said, "Greetings, old madam."
She was respectful and well mannered. Old lady Lark narrowed her eyes slightly. This was the daughter in law she had carefully selected for the second wife. A child born out of wedlock is raised as a legitimate child.
Naturally, his ambitions are as high as the sky, but his life is as fragile as paper. Mrs. Yates likes to talk about ethics and morals to highlight her status as the first wife, and makes the girls in the family learn the etiquette for females.
It's no wonder that noble ladies like daughters in law who follow the etiquette, so the eldest daughter of the Yates family married into a wealthy family.
When it was Fourth Miss Yates's turn, Mrs. Yates naturally did not want her rival's daughter to marry up, so she made some arrangements and promised her to the second son of the second illegitimate wife of the Lark family.
Can the proud and arrogant Fourth Miss Yates accept this? If you are unwilling, trouble will arise. Old lady Lark smiled kindly and held Fourth Miss Yates's hand, praising her again and again.
"The Yates family has a good family tradition. The girls in the Yates family are different. They are especially polite and virtuous. I like good girls like this the most. Child, if the people in the second house treat you badly just come to me and I will help you make the decision."
She looked just like a kind elder. Fourth Miss Yates was a little flattered. "Thank you, old lady." She knew that this was the ancestor of the Lark family, who had the highest status and whose words were the most effective.
As long as she could please the ancestors, her life would be easier. In fact, Old lady Lark doesn't like delicate and weak girls, as they remind her of those charming mistresses. However, she showed that she particularly liked him.
"You are well educated and well mannered, which is a good thing. The rules of the second house are not very strict. Wendy Lark is unruly and has no rules. She is spoiled by her parents. From now on, you will be her sister in law and take on the responsibility of discipline."
Fourth Miss Yates didn't expect her to be so blunt and was extremely shocked. "Aunt Lark is in charge, it's not my turn to interfere." Old Madam Lark shook her head, looking helpless.
"She is ignorant and only knows how to spoil her daughter blindly. She doesn't know that the deeper the love, the more far reaching the plan. She needs to be disciplined. The daughters of the Lark family are one family. The third girl is making too much trouble and will drag down the other sisters..."
