Yun Jinnian's voice was soft and gentle.
And faint as well.
It seemed devoid of much emotion, yet only she knew how much bitterness and hardship it contained.
Upon hearing her words, the Empress Dowager was momentarily stunned.
With concern, she asked, "What about now, do you still feel aggrieved?"
"It's all in the past, so I no longer feel aggrieved. Perhaps in a few more years, I will even be able to laugh and tell others about how pitiful I once was. When my whole family went to Huiquan Tower for a meal, only I and my nanny were left at home eating their leftovers," Yun Jinnian said, followed by a tender smile. "Later, I too could leave the house, and I had silver in my hand. I specifically took my nanny there to dine, and although the meals were good and exquisite, they weren't as delicious and heartwarming as those made by my nanny!"
The Empress Dowager sighed and took Yun Jinnian's hand, "Good child, you've been wronged these years!"
