Revenge of the First Daughter - Chapter 152

Chapter 152 Carriage Disturbance
Under Madam Lu’s urging, Yun Xiao changed into a dull crescent-toothed phoenix-tailed skirt. On her jacket with golden threads, Su Qing embroidered a bright and colorful crabapple flower. There was a small purse tied around her waist. The purse was embroidered with the scenery of a butterfly playing with a daffodils. There was also a bow tied beside the purse. It was very small and exquisite.

Finally, Yun Xiao picked out a white fox fur cloak and put it on her shoulder. Madam Lu originally wanted to put on some makeup for Yun Xiao, but Yun Xiao rejected her.

Madam Lu was helpless and had no choice but to let it go. When the mother and daughter brought Brother Han all the way to the front hall, they saw Steward Li sitting on a chair and talking to Yun Maozhe.

Housekeeper Li had a wealthy expression on his face. He wore a navy green robe and wore a belt around his waist. His round face was very pleasing, but the light in his eyes was very unpleasant.

After Yun Xiao entered, she smiled and greeted everyone. Her expression was calm, and the corner of her mouth carried a bright smile. She was generous and graceful. She was more like a noble girl than some of the other ladies.

Yun Maozhe chuckled and said, “Xiaoxiao, this is the head butler of the Third Prince’s Mansion. Quickly greet butler Li.”

Yun Xiao only nodded to Butler Li. She could not tell that she wished she could peel off Butler Li’s skin and eat his bones. She said indifferently, “Butler Li, you’re welcome. Since you’ve come to the Yun Clan, you’re the guest. There’s no need to be too polite. Just treat everything as it is.”

Housekeeper Li’s face suddenly turned green and pale. He didn’t expect that the Yun Family’s fourth young lady would show off her might just as soon as she arrived. She was clearly just entertaining an honored guest, but she pointed out that her etiquette was improper.

He stood up from his chair with an ashen expression and coldly snorted, “This servant has only seen the fourth young lady.”

Yun Xiao only said indifferently, “Get up.” No matter how noble Butler Li’s status in the Third Prince’s Mansion is, he is still a butler and a slave. It is simply impossible for him to expect him to greet him when he sees that he has disappeared.

Madam Lu and Yun Maozhe’s faces suddenly turned pale. Their daughters had always been obedient. Why did such a big mess happen when they saw such a distinguished guest? Yun Maozhe stood up from the main seat and said apologetically, “Little girl doesn’t know the etiquette. I hope Steward Li doesn’t take offense.”

Butler Li’s expression was also ugly as he said, “Master Yun is joking. Fourth Young Lady’s etiquette is so good, how can you say that you don’t know the etiquette?”

Yun Xiao glanced at Steward Li indifferently, and her eyes were filled with unconcealable disgust. “If Daddy and Steward Li continue to flatter me like this, I feel very pleased. I heard that Steward Li is here to pick me up, right?”

Housekeeper Li coughed dryly. He didn’t expect that this little girl was clearly only a little older, but her words were merciless. This was the first time that he had been trampled on in such a manner. He felt very uncomfortable. “Yes, since Fourth Young Lady is ready, then let’s go.”

Sure enough, Yun Xiao saw disgust in Steward Li’s eyes. She secretly sneered in her heart. What she wanted was such an effect. “Thank you, Steward Li.”

Yun Xiao had been sitting on the carriage. The person driving the carriage was naturally Li Guan’s family. His heart was uncomfortable, and he did not want Yun Xiao to be so comfortable. He drove the carriage very bumpy.

Yun Xiao firmly pressed the window in the carriage to stabilize her body. However, Chun Lan did not have such good luck. She was thrown in the carriage. Yun Xiao’s expression turned cold as she raised her voice and said, “Stop!”

Housekeeper Li didn’t expect the Yun Family’s fourth young lady to be so bold. She really dared to call the carriage to a stop. Seeing a stone in front of her, she drove the carriage over the stone and sneered, “Fourth young lady, what instructions do you have?”

Seeing that Chun Lan was about to be thrown onto the carriage again, Although the carriage was covered with thick blankets, The fall did not hurt, but the clothes and hair on her body were messy. Yun Xiao immediately pulled Chun Lan’s hand and pressed Chun Lan against the window. Her hand had also been tightly grabbing the window to stabilize her body. Chun Lan smiled gratefully at Yun Xiao and comforted softly, “Young lady, let’s not go against Steward Li anymore, right?” However, it was his own etiquette that was wrong. The girl pointed out that it was speechless for such a petty slave to come from the Third Prince’s mansion to torture their master and servant with such pettiness.

Yun Xiao just shook her head. Unless you were stronger than him, he would only make a move behind you. He raised his voice and said, “I told you to stop. Did you hear me? I made dozens of sounds. If the car can’t stop, you will have to bear the consequences.”

Her cold voice carried a faint majesty, causing Butler Li to be slightly stunned. He never thought that things would turn out like this. Then, he heard Yun Xiao’s voice, “Chun Lan, start counting.”

“One …”

Just as a soft voice came to mind, Butler Li felt a sense of fear in his heart. For some reason, he felt a chill in his heart and immediately instructed the coachman to pull the horse to a halt.

“Ten.” When Chun Lan’s last sound landed, the carriage also stopped. Steward Li wiped the sweat off his forehead and said, “Fourth Miss, what do you want?”

Yun Xiao briefly tidied up her clothes and hair bun, stretched out her hand to open the curtain of the carriage and walked out of the carriage. Before Butler Li could stop her, she saw that Yun Xiao had already gotten off the carriage with Chun Lan’s help.

Housekeeper Li was slightly stunned. He didn’t expect that he was merely punishing him. Why did things turn out like this? Seeing that Yun Xiao and Chun Lan had already walked forward, he also jumped out of the carriage and followed behind them, “Fourth Miss, why did you get off the carriage?”

A trace of mockery appeared in Yun Xiao’s eyes. ‘”The carriage of the Third Prince’s Mansion is too noble. It’s not something a lowly person like me can ride. The road to the capital is already flat, but if I sit in this carriage, the flat road can almost bump people to death. Obviously, the beast pulling the carriage is unwilling. Since that’s the case, I might as well walk to the Third Prince’s Mansion for the sake of my life.”

Housekeeper Li’s face turned pale. Although Yun Xiao’s words were calm, they did not only curse him as a beast, they also cursed the people from the Third Prince’s Mansion. Although he was unhappy, he could not let Yun Xiao walk to the Third Prince’s Mansion. Otherwise, there would be no need for the Third Prince’s Mansion to bully others tomorrow in a short period of time.

This was not his original intention. If the Third Prince found out, he would definitely think that he was doing something wrong. He wiped the cold sweat off his forehead and said respectfully, “Fourth Miss is really good at joking. How can that animal be dissatisfied with Fourth Miss? This servant guarantees that the road will not be bumpy in the future. Fourth Miss, please get in the carriage.”

Teach Yun Xiao a lesson. This is already enough, you can’t be self-defeating.

Yun Xiao snorted coldly with a disdainful expression, “Then what? If that bastard goes crazy again, I don’t need to protect my life anymore. I was just frightened a few days ago. My body is just fine, so I can’t be pushed to death by this horse without being frightened to death, right, Butler Li?”

At this moment, Butler Li finally knew that the Yun Family’s fourth young lady was a difficult character. “Fourth young lady, are you joking? How could this be? The driver was a newcomer. This time, this servant will drive the car himself. What do you think, fourth young lady?”

“Oh?” Yun Xiao faintly raised her eyebrows and stopped. Her gaze was filled with contemplation. Seeing Butler Li breathe a sigh of relief, she said, “I thought for a moment, but I still feel that I can’t randomly hand my life over to someone else. Otherwise, I won’t be able to die unknowingly in the end. This won’t do.”

“Housekeeper Li, it’s better to take the carriage by yourself. I think it’s not bad to walk like this. It’s not far from the Third Prince’s Mansion. It’s about an hour’s walk.”

If they walked for another two hours, they would have missed lunch. This was a conservative estimate. If these four girls were to rest on the road, they wouldn’t know if they would be able to reach the Third Prince’s Mansion for an hour and a half.

At this moment, Steward Li realized that he had provoked such a troublesome person. Seeing that Yun Xiao had already left, he immediately chased after him and said with a flattering smile, “Fourth Young Lady, how can you be willing to ride in a carriage?”

As Yun Xiao walked forward, she pretended to think and closed her thin lips, “I’m thirsty.”

Housekeeper Li was stunned for a moment. He immediately turned around and walked to the carriage. He poured a cup of tea and brought it out. However, it was difficult to keep the tea from spilling on the tray. Housekeeper Li tried his best to walk steadily and quickly. When he finally walked to Yun Xiao’s side, he heaved a sigh of relief. “Fourth Miss, drink your tea.”

Yun Xiao did not hesitate. After borrowing the tea from Steward Li, she was just about to drink it. Her pair of eyes, which emitted an ancient and quiet orchid-like aura, rolled around and stuffed the cup into Chun Lan’s hand. “Chun Lan, you were just frightened, right? Drink a cup of tea first to suppress your shock.”

Chun Lan was so flattered that she was about to refuse. Seeing the faint smile on her young lady’s face and Butler Li’s embarrassed face, Chun Lan generously took the teacup over and said, “Thank you, young lady.”

Housekeeper Li woke up from his shock. He immediately turned back and poured a cup of tea. When he walked to Yun Xiao again, Housekeeper Li felt that the most wrong thing he had done in his life was to offend Yun Xiao today. He said flatteringly, “Fourth Miss, drink tea.”

Only then did Yun Xiao stop. She took a sip of the tea cup and slowly tasted it. Finally, she placed the cup on the tray in Steward Li’s hand. “Chun Lan, I think this tea is good. What do you think?”

Chun Lan thought for a moment and respectfully replied, “This servant was too thirsty just now, so she drank all of it without tasting anything. Young lady, it’s all my fault.”

Yun Xiao chuckled and said, “It doesn’t matter. Anyway, there’s plenty of tea. Chun Lan can taste it slowly.” After she finished speaking, she looked at Steward Li indifferently.

Steward Li immediately understood what Yun Xiao meant. He turned around and ran in the direction of the carriage again.

Chun Lan watched Butler Li run back and forth respectfully a few times and did not dare to feel dissatisfied. She couldn’t help but worship Yun Xiao even more, “Young lady, you are really amazing.”

Yun Xiao blinked her eyes at Chun Lan and said, “The powerful one is still behind.” Suddenly, she saw a familiar carriage at the corner of her eyes. She frowned slightly and pulled Chun Lan’s hand in the direction of the carriage. When she got closer, she raised her voice and said, “Excuse me, can we borrow your carriage?”

Housekeeper Li thought that since Yun Xiao had told him to keep turning around, he might as well directly bring the teacup over. Who knew that the moment he turned around, he discovered that Yun Xiao and her personal maidservant had already walked to someone else’s carriage, and cold sweat immediately dripped down his forehead again.
