Revenge of the First Daughter - Chapter 265
Chapter 265 Persuade A Marriage
The maidservant wearing a lotus-colored dress lowered her head anxiously. Her face was extremely embarrassed, and her mouth trembled. Obviously, she was also frightened.
Madam Lu slapped the table impatiently and said, “Tell me everything you just said.”
The maidservant’s body became even more frightened. She bit her lips and said, “Madam Sun wants this servant to come and ask Madam to prepare a betrothal gift for the Eldest Young Master to the Second Miss of the Lan Clan.”
Hearing this, Madam Lu’s face immediately turned ashen with anger, and she fainted from anger.
Yun Xiao hurriedly walked over and supported Madam Lu. After pinching the people for a while, Madam Lu slowly woke up.
However, Madam Lu had just woken up when she cried out, “Bastard! How could she do this to Ya’er? Brother Yang clearly already … already …”
She said a few words, but she couldn’t bear to say that she was already dead.
Even though everyone was dead, Madam Sun was still here to mess around.
If Lan Shuya married, wouldn’t she be a widow?
Although her heart slowly turned cold towards Lan Shuya, no matter what, Lan Shuya was still her niece. How could she watch helplessly as Madam Sun tortured Lan Shuya?
After Yun Xiao listened to the maidservant’s words, she was not angry. In her heart, she only secretly felt that Madam Sun had finally done something that made people happy.
However, even though Yun Xiao thought so, However, she was still worried about Lan Shuya’s thoughts and whispered, “Mother, don’t worry. Right now, the people in the capital still don’t know the news of Big Brother’s accident. Let’s get to the bottom of this matter first. No matter what the Lan Family says, they can still be considered to be influential people in the capital. The Lan Family may not be able to take a fancy to Yun Clan.”
She had to say that the Lan Clan was still Madam Lan’s decision. Madam Lan had long since seen Lan Shuya as a thorn in her side. In addition to what had happened in the monastery, Lan Shuya had completely lost face to the Lan Clan. If it wasn’t for Lan Shuya and that devastating face, the Lan Clan would probably have long ago treated her as an abandoned child.
Not long ago, Lan Shuya’s appearance was ruined by county princess Hui Ning. Without the support of her appearance, it was likely that Lan Shuya had become the abandoned son of the Lan Clan.
No one will marry a disfigured woman.
At this time, the Yun Clan went to the Lan Clan to propose marriage. Although the Yun Clan was not a noble clan, their Yun Clan was rich!
With such a person as her in-law, the Lan Clan probably wouldn’t be happy enough.
Who cared if Yun Yang was dead or alive?
Moreover, the news that Yun Xiao had spread out was that Yun Yang was studying outside and not in the capital. There were people in the capital who knew that Yun Yang had died. Apart from these masters, those maids had also been dealt with.
At this moment, the people in the capital still didn’t know that Yun Yang was dead!
I’m afraid the Lan Clan will rush to facilitate this marriage!
Madam Lu also felt that Yun Xiao’s words made sense. She heaved a sigh of relief, “You’re right. Even if Brother Yang is still alive and well, he is not worthy of Ya’er. Ya’er’s talent and appearance are peerless. The Lan Clan will definitely not let Ya’er marry into the Yun Clan.”
Thinking that Lan Shuya would live a widowed life if she married into the Yun Clan, Madam Lu felt a wave of unhappiness in her heart.
Yun Xiao saw that Madam Lu had gradually recovered her composure and continued, “Mother, actually, I feel that even if my cousin marries into our Yun Clan, there is nothing she cannot do.”
Just as she finished speaking, Madam Lu looked at Yun Xiao in surprise and said with an embarrassed expression, “Xiao Xiao, you … why did you say that?”
Yun Xiao’s gaze was low. He sighed, She sat down next to Madam Lu. He said softly, “Mother doesn’t know, A few days ago, my cousin and I went to a banquet in the Third Prince’s Mansion, “I never thought that county princess Na Huining would be kind and hungry. Not only did she ruin my painting, she also ruined my cousin’s appearance. Now that my cousin’s appearance has been ruined, no one will be willing to marry my cousin. Besides, last time in the monastery, my cousin and big brother gave each other a private gift. If my cousin doesn’t marry into our Yun family, I’m afraid that the Azure Lantern Ancient Buddha will be in the future.”
Seeing Madam Lu’s shocked expression when she heard this news, she hurriedly continued, “Compared to the Azure Lamp Ancient Buddha, living a miserable life and marrying into our Yun Clan, with mother and me taking care of her, my cousin’s life won’t be bad anymore. Moreover, now that Second Mother is grounded and Third Sister is locked up, no one in the Yun Clan will make things difficult for her.”
After hearing Yun Xiao’s words, Madam Lu felt that Yun Xiao’s words were extremely reasonable.
Lan Shuya was used to being rich, and she was also a spoiled woman. It was a pity that she had disguised herself as the Ancient Green Lamp Buddha.
Although she didn’t have a husband when she married into the Yun Clan, no one would make things difficult for her. It was a place to go.
However, Madam Lu always felt that something was wrong. As for what was wrong, Madam Lu couldn’t figure it out. “What you said makes sense. I need to think about it carefully before making a decision.”
Yun Xiao smiled and nodded her head. She naturally knew Lu shi’s temperament. The things she said today had already been enough for Lu shi to accept for a while. She decided not to continue this topic and said to the maidservant who was still kneeling, “You go down first.”
The maidservant wearing a lotus-colored dress thanked Yun Xiao for her kindness for a while before she got up and left.
However, Yun Xiao’s eyes were filled with disgust.
Brother Han, who hadn’t spoken all this while, carefully looked at Fourth Sister and then at Madam Lu before carefully saying, “Mother, is Cousin really going to marry into our Yun Clan?”
Madam Lu felt her heart twitch. She coughed softly and said, “This matter hasn’t been settled yet. Don’t interfere. Let’s go and see how your father is doing.”
Even though Madam Lu truly loved Lan Shuya, she was still most concerned about her husband. Recalling that Yun Maozhe was still sick, her expression became even more worried.
Seeing that Brother Han still wanted to continue, Yun Xiao stretched out her hand and pulled Brother Han’s small hand. She gave him a look and also entered the room with Madam Lu.
On the hospital bed, Yun Maozhe’s face was pale. However, it was already a little rosy. It seemed that his spirits were much better than this morning.
Madam Lu quickly walked over and stretched out her hand to test the temperature on Yun Maozhe’s forehead. Seeing that there was no fever again, she heaved a sigh of relief and said softly, “Amitabha, there is finally no fever anymore.”
At this time, Yun Xiao also said at the right time, “Daddy has his own good fortune. I told you that Daddy will definitely be fine. Did Mother believe me now?”
Madam Lu helplessly looked at Yunxiao and saw that Qiushuang had already walked in with the medicine bowl. She hurriedly reached out and brought it over.
Sitting beside the bed, he picked up a spoon and fed Yun Maozhe medicine bit by bit.
When Yun Xiao saw this, a trace of peace and happiness slowly arose in her heart.
This kind of peaceful life is very good, but I don’t know how long it will last.
At this moment, Butler Li’s slightly fat body appeared in the room and respectfully bowed. Then, he looked at Yun Xiao and whispered, “Fourth Young Lady, there is a father-in-law coming from outside. He said that he wants to take Fourth Young Lady into the palace. Is Fourth Young Lady going or not?”
Yun Xiao’s good mood just now had already disappeared. She had just heaved a sigh of relief, and trouble had come to her door.
She had originally thought that no matter what, even if it was a summons from the imperial palace, it would probably be after noon. Who knew that it would actually come in the morning?
Yun Xiao looked at Yun Maozhe worriedly. Although his father did not have a fever now, as long as he did not wake up, he would not be at ease. “Go ask the father-in-law who came first. Ask him later, okay?”
Butler Li’s expression turned ugly. This was someone from the Imperial Palace, not someone from anywhere else. It was not something that could be refused. “Fourth Young Lady, this is someone from the Imperial Palace.”
Yun Xiao rubbed her eyebrows and felt a headache. Then she said, “Who is the father-in-law that came to the manor today?”
“It’s Eunuch Wei,” Butler Li remembered that Eunuch Wei was a celebrity beside the Jin Emperor, so he didn’t dare to offend him at all.
Yun Xiao felt even more headache. She didn’t expect that she would only ask him to interrogate her and actually let Eunuch Wei come. This unknown person thought that something was wrong with the Yun Clan! “I see. You can go back first.”
Housekeeper Li didn’t get Yun Xiao’s exact look back. He looked at Yun Xiao with a conflicted expression. Although the fourth young miss was filial and didn’t want to enter the palace in order to protect her master, this was a good thing. However, the people outside really didn’t want to offend her. “Fourth young miss, look at this?”
Before Yunxiao could reply, Madam Lu already said, “Go prepare a carriage for Xiaoxiao.” With Madam Lu, Steward Li respectfully retreated.
Yun Xiao curled her lips and looked at Madam Lu. Lu shi rubbed her hair. He said softly, “Since it is father-in-law wei came, It must be the Jin Emperor’s summons, We can’t afford to offend, Besides, your father is not in good health right now, “But our Yun Clan must not collapse. With you entering the palace, the people outside who are eyeing the Yun Clan will not dare to attack the Yun Clan at will. Besides, there are doctors and me watching here. Your father is fine. You should go into the palace. Nothing will happen. If anything happens, I will inform you in time.”
Yun Xiao listened. She felt the corner of her eyes slowly wetting. In the past, the Yun Clan was supported by her father. It was like an iron wall. No one dared to attack the Yun Clan directly. But now, her father’s health was not good. Judging from her father’s current situation, she probably wouldn’t have much energy to manage the Yun Clan’s business in the future. She was afraid that the Yun Clan would be split apart by many people at that time.
Now, Yun Xiao suddenly had a feeling that she was in the same situation as before the Yun Clan’s accident in her previous life, and a faint sense of powerlessness appeared in her heart.
However, this feeling of powerlessness quickly disappeared and was replaced by determination.
Now, before the Yun Clan could reach its final stage, she wanted to protect the Yun Clan for her father.
Yun Xiao stood up and walked over. She looked at Yun Maozhe and whispered, “Daddy must listen to mother and take the medicine properly. My daughter only went out once and will be back soon.”
Yun Maozhe was still asleep and had no reaction.
Yun Xiao sighed and then said to Madam Lu, “Mother, you just have to take care of your father’s body now. As for other matters, you don’t have to worry about it. If you have anything else, you can wait for your daughter to come back.”
By saying this, she was also reminding Madam Lu not to interfere in the affairs of Madam Sun and Yun Yao.
Madam Lu nodded and looked at Yun Xiao worriedly, “Take Qing Mo with you. I can rest assured.” Among all the maids, only Qing Mo knew some martial arts. Bring Qing Mo along would make her feel relieved.
Yun Xiao raised her head to look at Qing Mo, a cold snort flashing through her eyes.
She was standing beside him, but her heart was directed towards other people’s maids!
However, taking Qing Mo with him did reassure him, “Alright, Mother, take good care of your father first. My daughter will be back soon.”
Seeing Madam Lu nod, Yun Xiao lowered her head and warned Brother Han. She blinked at him for a moment before saying, “Brother Han is now a man. You have to take good care of your father and mother.”
Brother Han nodded heavily and said, “I will. Fourth sister, will you be away for a few more days this time?” Last time, when Yun Xiao entered the palace, she stayed in the palace for a few days, giving Brother Han a psychological shadow.
Yun Xiao shook her head, “Fourth sister will be back this afternoon.” Although Yun Xiao was also worried that the Jin Emperor would not allow her to leave the palace this time, she would fight for it.
After Yun Xiao left the courtyard, she warned Butler Li for a while, “No matter what happens in the manor, don’t tell my mother. If I don’t return before dark today, you can tell my mother again. This manor will be troublesome for Butler Li.”
Right now, the Yun Clan really can’t find a person who can be a director …
