"Years have passed since we last met. How has father been?" Ye Zao asked, meaning no sarcasm.
But just a few years away, and the legitimate wife and concubines all died off, replaced by Lady Tao. How can one not feel disgusted?
Looking closely at Lady Tao, young indeed, she is somewhat prettier than my legal mother. Yet, she still falls short compared to Maternal Aunt Su.
Though my mother, Lady Feng, passed away early, people say she was quite like Feng Tianyun, so she must have been a beauty too.
My siblings and I all resemble our mother.
Lady Saimier, the former legal mother, might not have been pretty, but that was a marriage arranged by our parents. Not Ye Mingyuan's decision.
The current Lady Tao was his choice, so, Father's taste in beauty... must indeed be quite peculiar.
As for Ye Zao's feelings towards Lady Tao, she can't really say much. Anyway, she's certain she doesn't like her.
