Revenge of the First Daughter - Chapter 258
Chapter 258 The Truth Was Revealed
Yun Xiao followed the maidservant into the room. Under the dusky yellow lights, a woman was wearing a lake-green cloud-fei makeup, flower satin, weaving colorful flying butterflies brocade clothes. Beside her was a green flower twining incense burner, on which there were dots of green smoke burning.
The door opened and the woman sitting cross-legged inside turned around. Her jade-like skin emitted a faint fluorescence. Her bright eyes and bright teeth were beautiful. Her gaze moved down, and the woman’s abdomen slightly bulged.
Yun Xiao slowly stepped forward and said with a smile, “I heard that Third Sister’s body is not well today. Why did she get up?”
Yun Yao looked at Yun Xiao who had appeared in front of her and gritted her teeth in hatred.
The exquisite face flashed with traces of cracking light.
Why didn’t she die! Why did she spend so much money to bribe the people of the Ten Directions Palace to take over her business? Why didn’t she die?
Seeing the smile on Yun Xiao’s face, she felt even more sarcastic towards herself.
Yun Yao kept comforting herself in her heart. One day, she would take Yun Xiao’s life.
Since she didn’t take Yun Xiao’s life in the daytime today, tonight she would let Yun Xiao lose her reputation!
Thinking about what happened next, Yun Yao’s mood improved a little. She breathed a sigh of relief and smiled softly. “Today, I’ve been lying in fear for a whole day. I feel better and I feel uncomfortable lying down. Only then did I get up. The doctor said that it’s not good to be lying down all the time.”
“So that’s the case. Third sister must take good care of her body. There is still a child in her belly.” Yun Xiao chatted and laughed while she found a seat herself and sat down.
As soon as Yun Xiao finished speaking, Yun Yao began to cry with her handkerchief extracted and lifted. With that pale face, I really felt pity for her.
Yun Xiao only pretended not to know and asked in surprise, “Third sister, why are you crying? Is there any grievance? Tell me, I’ll go and tell daddy to punish him properly!”
Even though she said that, Yun Yao was still sobbing on her own. Occasionally, she wiped away the tears at the corner of her eyes and looked at Yun Xiao from time to time. Her appearance made Yun Xiao feel a little worried.
“Third sister, if you continue crying like this, I will be at a loss. Why don’t I go find daddy and tell him what grievances Third sister has?” Seeing Yun Yao’s crying appearance, Yun Xiao secretly disdained in her heart and couldn’t sit down anymore.
There were no outsiders here. It was meaningless to pretend like this.
She pretended to leave, and Yun Yao did not dare to continue crying. Today, she finally called Yun Xiao over. How could she waste such a good time for nothing?
“Fourth sister, don’t,” Yun Yao anxiously got up to pull Yun Xiao. However, because she got up too quickly, her stomach was a little painful. She quickly covered her stomach with her hands and said, “Aiyo, my stomach.”
The pain on Yun Yao’s face was very obvious, very much like it was real, but Yun Xiao did not dare to jump to conclusions.
After being planted by Yun Yao many times, Yun Xiao did not trust Yun Yao at all. Moreover, she had spent a lot of effort to invite her over today. Yun Xiao did not believe that she was only here to invite her to chat.
He stopped and said from afar, “Third sister, what’s wrong with you? But your stomach hurts badly? Why don’t I call a doctor for you? Coincidentally, grandmother is sick today. The doctor hasn’t left yet, so it’s much more convenient to call her now.”
‘”No, no, no.” If a doctor was called, how would her play go on? He endured the pain in his stomach and whispered, “I’m fine. It’s getting late today. If we wake up the people in our mansion again, there will definitely be a lot of servants chatting behind our backs. Besides, I’ve already seen a doctor in the daytime. I just need to rest properly and take the medicine on time.”
Yun Xiao listened to her words and pretended to breathe a sigh of relief. She patted her chest and said, “That’s good. Third sister is going to scare me to death. Just now, third sister’s expression was really awkward. It’s good that third sister is fine.”
“Let fourth sister worry. Fourth sister, come over and do it. We haven’t spoken to each other for a long time. Our relationship was excellent in the past. Speaking of which, this matter is all about big sister. If big sister and Young Master Shen weren’t fond of each other, fourth sister would have discussed marriage with Young Master Shen now. Fourth sister wouldn’t hate big sister, right?” Yun Yao’s exquisite pale face still had two strings of tears hanging on it, coupled with her uneasy expression, which attracted people’s pity.
Yun Xiao sneered in her heart. Yun Yao had said such things. When she went into the palace to complain, it would definitely be her fault in the future. She hurriedly smiled and walked over. “Third sister is really joking. Third sister said that we are sisters. What else can’t be forgiven?” Besides, Young Master Shen and I don’t have any feelings for each other. After all, Third Sister and Young Master Shen are in love, I must have told father to cancel the marriage long ago. ”
The pearl embryo was secretly knotted, and it was fortunate that Yun Yao was able to say such a thing.
Yun Xiao’s face was embarrassed for a moment. Her words were pleasant to hear, but she was actually accusing herself of liking her sister’s fiance and robbing him so openly. She laughed awkwardly, “It was all big sister’s fault, but when it comes to this matter, little sister should thank big sister properly.”
Yun Xiao looked at Yun Yao with a surprised expression, her eyes filled with suspicion. “Sister, what are you saying?”
Yun Yao covered her mouth and secretly smiled. “Everyone knows about this. Fourth sister is still hiding it from me. It seems that she doesn’t treat me like an older sister anymore.”
Seeing that Yun Xiao was still looking at her nervously, she felt a little puzzled. “Could it be that elder sister has misheard? I heard that the Third Prince admires younger sister and wants to marry younger sister as imperial concubine. Could it be that there is no such thing?”
After Yun Yao heard the news, she was so angry that she almost vomited blood. It was not easy for her to break off the marriage between Yun Xiao and Shen Yingfan. Who knew that in a blink of an eye, Yun Xiao had already closed the eyes of the Third Prince?
Although the Third Prince was not favored, he was still a prince! Endless glory!
No matter how unfavored the Third Prince was, he was still the Emperor’s son. In the future, he would be able to confer the title of king and fief.
However, marrying Shen Yingfan was not even a proper wife, so she could only be a concubine!
Every time she thought of this, Yun Yao’s heart felt depressed, and the corners of her mouth became bitter. The things she had painstakingly obtained were made for other people’s wedding clothes.
When Yun Xiao heard Yun Yao’s words, she already understood Yun Yao’s thoughts. She chuckled and said, “Sister is the one who teases me. How could there be such a thing?”
Yun Yao frowned as she stared into Yun Xiao’s eyes. She felt that Yun Xiao was lying. “Quite a few people already know about this. Could fourth sister not know?”
Yun Xiao honestly shook her head and whispered, “I wonder who Fourth Sister heard this from?”
“It’s Shen” Yun Yao had just said this word when she suddenly remembered something and hurriedly said, “I heard the maidservant say it.”
“So it’s a maidservant?” Yun Xiao lowered her eyebrows, obviously with a look of disbelief. The word “Shen” had already revealed her carelessness.
Today, she asked the servant to investigate the Shen manor. When she found out that nothing had happened in the Shen manor, she knew that there must be something else. Thinking of it this way, Shen Yingfan must have thought of a way to deliver the message to Yun Yao.
In this way, everything that happened today would make sense.
Presumably, it was Shen Yingfan who came to visit and told Yun Yao the news, which made Yun Yao so angry that she became pregnant.
Originally, she was still wondering when Yun Yao’s mind had turned so fast that she actually wanted to ask the people of the Ten Directions Palace to kidnap her?
Who would have thought that it would be Shen Yingfan who would come up with a plan behind his back?
Yun Xiao rolled her eyes. About Zhou Jingyan wanting to marry her as his imperial concubine, only Zhou Jingyan and the others knew. Now that Shen Yingfan knew about this, it must be Zhou Jingyan who told Shen Yingfan.
She suddenly remembered that in her previous life, after Zhou Jingyan sat on the throne, the Shen Clan of the Ministry of Rites had also been reused. From the looks of it, Shen Yingfan must have stood in Zhou Jingyan’s camp early in the morning.
After rebirth, Yun Xiao thought about more things.
Logically speaking, she was the direct descendant of the Yun Clan, and Yun Yao was only a child born to a flat wife. In the final analysis, she was still a concubine.
Looking at the situation of Shen Yingfan and Yun Yao in this life, Shen Yingfan definitely did not like Yun Yao. Otherwise, she would not have made Yun Yao a concubine.
And if he wanted to marry the daughter of the Yun Family, it was either because he liked her or because he wanted to get rich. However, if he married her, he would get even more wealth than if he married Yun Yao.
Shen Yingfan was a smart person, so he knew this.
However, he still retreated from his marriage with Yun Yao, and he didn’t hesitate to have an affair with Yun Yao, nor was he willing to marry her.
Yun Xiao only felt that her heartbeat had suddenly accelerated a little. The truth of the matter was about to emerge, but Yun Xiao did not believe it.
If what she had guessed was correct, Shen Yingfan must have reached an alliance with Zhou Jingyan and deliberately left her to Zhou Jingyan.
When Yun Xiao was feeling dejected, Zhou Jingyan suddenly appeared to save her and was willing to marry her. In this way, Zhou Jingyan would definitely be praised by everyone, and he would be able to easily obtain Yun Clan’s family wealth.
This abacus was actually so meticulous.
Yun Xiao only felt her heart suddenly skip a beat. She didn’t expect that Zhou Jingyan had already made an idea for her a few months ago.
In the previous scenes, she was kidnapped, the Shen Family’s withdrawal from marriage, and when they met in the restaurant, Zhou Jingyan deliberately went to the villa …
All of the scenes were connected together, and Yun Xiao was already able to reach a conclusion.
Zhou Jingyan deliberately wanted to appear in front of him and make him feel more existential.
Otherwise, why would someone who hated him so much and wished he could stay far away from him appear in front of him so often?
What a joke!
The secret that she had never known before in her previous life had actually only come to light today!
What an irony!
“Fourth sister, what’s wrong with you?” Just as Yun Xiao was still thinking about these things, Yun Yao suddenly leaned forward, pulled Yun Xiao’s sleeve, and took a handkerchief to wipe Yun Xiao’s forehead.
A strange fragrance entered her nose. Yun Xiao’s expression was cold. She suddenly woke up and shook off Yun Yao’s hand fiercely.
