Revenge of the First Daughter - Chapter 13
Chapter 013 Withdraw One’s Marriage
Madam Lu immediately stepped forward. This would affect her daughter’s life. “Mother, if this matter doesn’t work, it will ruin Xiaoxiao’s life.”
However, the matriarch felt that this was a good idea and nodded, “Yi Ning’s words are reasonable. Let’s do it this way.”
It was decided on the spot, and she did not intend to ask her son and Madam Lu for their opinions. Furthermore, she ignored Yun Lan’s words directly and honestly.
Yun Xiao was pulled by Madam Lu, her head slightly lowered, making it impossible to see her expression clearly.
Yun Xiao listened to their words, and a trace of harshness and disdain flashed across her brows. She had just returned to the Cloud Manor in her previous life, and the Yuan Clan and the Sun Clan took advantage of her father’s absence to directly convict her, wanting to examine her body. Although she did not succeed, she was later sent to the manor.
In this life, she was no longer the weak and incompetent fourth young lady, and her father was also here. She could not afford to suffer this loss no matter what.
The matriarch Yuan had just spoken when Yun Maozhe was angrily kicked, “Let’s see who dares to make a move? I’m not dead yet!”
“What do you mean?” Although the Old Madame Yuan was Yun Maozhe’s mother, the one who was in charge of the Yun Family was her son, Yun Maozhe.
“What do you mean? Mother, although you don’t like Xiaoxiao and Mother Yun, there’s no need to push them to their deaths and have them examined by a young lady’s family. Don’t you know what the consequences will be?” Although Yun Maozhe said mother after mother, his voice was very cold.
‘”You, are you talking to mother like this? Why did I raise a son like you who had a wife and forgot mother?” Yuan shi did not agree to her marrying into the Yun family before Lu shi entered the sect. However, Yun Maozhe forcefully went against her orders and married Lu shi. The mother and son also began to have a relationship, so Yuan shi hated Lu shi very much from the beginning.
Seeing that the matriarch was acting too much, Yun Xiao couldn’t help but reveal a mocking smile. When she raised her head, her emotions were completely concealed. She looked like a pear blossom with rain and knelt straight down. “Grandmother, don’t be angry. Don’t cry. If grandmother wanted to test Xiao Xiao’s body to prove her innocence, then granddaughter would rather do it.”
Yun Xiao’s words were clear. Everyone present was stunned. They didn’t understand how there was such a woman who didn’t know what was good for her.
Mrs. Lu was so frightened by Yun Xiao’s words that her body softened. She almost knelt down, “Xiao Xiao, don’t speak nonsense. Do you know how serious the consequences of the physical examination are?”
Yun Xiao’s pale little white smiled miserably. Her big eyes were stained with tears, but she still resisted falling. “Daughter knows. It’s just that Xiao Xiao is willing to prove her innocence.”
Yuan shi and Sun shi Qu frowned. They didn’t expect that Yun Xiao would actually pose a threat to them. Yuan shi was even more unhappy. “Since that’s the case, then let’s do as you wish.”
When Yun Maozhe saw that his daughter was enduring it so that Madam Yuan could be happy, Madam Yuan was unwilling to scratch her head. “Wait, this Yun Clan is my master. Today, I’ll see who dares to touch Xiaoxiao!”
Madam Yuan frowned and cursed, “You bastard!”
Yun Xiao tugged at Yun Maozhe’s sleeve. “Daddy, you don’t have to do this. Xiao Xiao is innocent and isn’t afraid of others splashing dirty water on her.”
Just as the stalemate lasted, Yun Zhuo, the housekeeper of the Yun Manor, quickly walked in and said, “Master, the First Madam of the Shen Clan is here.”
Yun Xiao and the eldest young master of the Shen Clan had been engaged since childhood, and the eldest madam of the Shen Clan was the eldest young master’s biological mother.
Hearing this, Yuan shi and Sun shi’s faces instantly turned pretty, while Lu shi’s face became paler and paler. Yun Maozhe frowned deeply and said, “I told you that the Yun manor didn’t have any guests today.”
They had only just returned when their daughter arrived. In addition, two days ago, they had actually come to the Cloud Manor to withdraw their marriage. The intention of coming here was very obvious. That was why he did not have a good expression on his face.
A strange expression flashed through Yun Xiao’s lowered eyes. How familiar was this scene?
Just as she returned to the manor, the Sun family forced her to come back for a physical examination and withdraw from the Shen family. A thought suddenly flashed through Yun Xiao’s mind? Did the Sun Clan and the Shen Clan agree on this? She remembered that Sun Clan’s daughter liked the eldest young master of the Shen Clan.
Yun Xiao’s small hand stirred in front of her and weakly shouted, “Father, since Madam Shen has come, let’s meet. After all, the Shen Clan’s Eldest Master is the assistant minister of the Ministry of Rites.”
Yun Maozhe also knew that hiding was not a solution. This made it even more certain that Yun Xiao’s reputation was damaged. Adding on the help of the Sun Clan and Yuan Clan, he could only accept it.
Not long after, a woman wearing a bright red sleeve and a light green plum dress embroidered by Emei walked in from outside the door. She wore a simple double-screw bun and was followed by two nanny.
Seeing this, Madam Lu calmed down and asked the maidservant to serve tea to Madam Shen. She invited her to a seat and asked tentatively, “May I know why Madam Shen came today?”
Madam Shen’s expression immediately fell as she looked at Yun Xiao, who was standing beside Yun Maozhe. “I heard that the fourth young miss has returned to the manor, so I came here specifically to take a look.”
After he finished speaking, he pondered for a moment and took out a Geng invitation from his sleeve pocket. “Also, I came to withdraw my marriage on behalf of Yuqing.”
Yun Maozhe’s expression was very embarrassed. “What does Madam Shen mean?”
“That’s what I meant on the surface. The innocence of the Fourth Young Lady has become unclear since she was kidnapped. Our Shen Clan does not dare to take such a girl. If the two of us insist on taking her in, we can exchange it for a third young lady.” As Madam Shen spoke, she looked at Yun Xiao again.
