Chapter 365: Reversing Public Opinion

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Sometimes, the art of speaking lay in this.

Whoever took the initiative first gained control.

Mei Mu had returned to this home after making a big mistake.

She had offended almost everyone in the family before, and if she wanted to rise again and compete with Mei Shu for dominance, she needed the recognition of the family, including the Mei family’s boys and even the servants like Butler Zhao.

Only with the support of these people could she regain her voice.

But Mei Shu didn’t give her the chance to perform, directly blocking her path and leaving her with no room to maneuver.

Suppressing the restlessness in her heart, Mei Mu reluctantly admitted that she had lost to Mei Shu once again. However, she vowed to seize the opportunity next time.

With this determination, Mei Mu acted exceptionally amiably at home these days.

Gradually, many servants in the Mei family praised Mei Mu’s current changes.

Except for Butler Zhao, everyone else mentioned Mei Mu’s merits more or less.

One day, Mei Feng returned home from school and noticed changes in the courtyard.

The family garden, usually meticulously cared for by specialized craftsmen, was neat and clean but often lacked significant changes. However, recently, the shrubs in the garden had been carefully trimmed into the shape of a heart.

Mei Feng asked Butler Zhao about it, thinking that they might have hired new craftsmen. To his surprise, Butler Zhao explained that all this was Mei Mu’s handiwork.

“Oh, Second Miss is truly clever and talented. She caught on quickly. I just gave her a little guidance, and she managed to learn it properly. Young Master, look, these are all trimmed by Second Miss herself. Quite impressive!”

The craftsman couldn’t stop praising Mei Mu.

Mei Feng, with an expressionless face, shifted his gaze away and walked back on the stone path leading to the villa. After a short while, he noticed several colorful silk ribbons hanging on the door.

Once again, he looked at Butler Zhao with confusion.

Quick to explain, Housekeeper Zhao said, “These were also done by Second Miss. She said Young Master Mei He hasn’t been home for a long time and suggested holding a welcome ceremony.”

“Nonsense!” Mei Feng was visibly displeased. “You know that Xiao He dislikes crowded and lively places. Why would she dare to do such an unnecessary welcome ceremony, risking frightening him?”

“Xiao Feng.” Just as the words fell, Mei Mu entered with a beautifully wrapped bag. “You’re back. I had the kitchen stew for some nourishing soup. Remember to drink it later. With your busy studies, you should take good care of yourself.”

Mei Feng furrowed his brows, pointing at the colorful ribbons. “Don’t you know that Mei He doesn’t like crowded places? Aren’t you afraid of scaring him with these?”

“Of course, I know.” Mei Mu feigned fright at Mei Feng’s suddenly cold gaze, hastily explaining, “Don’t worry. I’m not trying to scare Xiao He. This welcome ceremony is only held within our family. Besides us few, no other unnecessary outsiders will be invited. Xiao He also likes it, and he even decorated his room himself!”

“What did you say?” Mei Feng couldn’t believe it and glared at Mei Mu. He rushed into the house, quickly climbed the stairs, and pushed open Mei He’s room door.

To his surprise, the usually calm Mei He now had a joyful smile on his face.

Seeing him, Mei He immediately put down the scissors and colored paper in his hands and happily approached. “Brother, you’re back. Look, Xiao He has learned to cut window flowers. Do you think they look good?”

“How can you touch scissors?” Mei Feng hurriedly took the scissors from the table, nervously inspecting his brother’s whole body.

Mei He was a bit nervous from his sudden actions and instinctively retracted her neck. “Did Xiao He do something wrong? Brother, don’t be angry.”

Mei Feng realized he had acted too abruptly and quickly softened his tone. “No, Brother is not angry. It’s just that from now on, Xiao He shouldn’t touch dangerous things like scissors. They can hurt your hands.”

“Why?” Mei He, puzzled, tilted his head and blinked at him. “Scissors aren’t dangerous. Xiao He has used them to cut out many little animals. Look, here’s a puppy, a kitten, and…”

“Your hand is injured!” Mei Feng keenly noticed a shallow wound on her fingertip, immediately grabbing his hand tightly.

Startled by his sudden movement, Mei He was frightened, and his long eyelashes flickered with moist mist.

“Xiao Feng, don’t be so agitated! You’ll scare Xiao He!” Mei Mu rushed into the room and saw that Mei He was about to cry from fright. She quickly separated the two of them and stood in front of Mei He.

“Step aside!” Mei Feng’s gloomy gaze fell on her face. “I think I need to remind you, did you forget what you promised my sister? Didn’t you say you wouldn’t get close to Xiao He, let alone enter his room without permission?”

“I didn’t come in without permission. Xiao He invited me in!” Mei Mu pouted, looking a bit aggrieved. After a moment, she sighed and said, “Xiao Feng, I know you have a bias against me, but this time, I really meant well. Look, Xiao He was having a good time before you came back. I consulted a doctor, and the doctor said having him find something he enjoys doing is beneficial for his recovery. Xiao He really likes doing these things himself..”
