Revenge of the First Daughter - Chapter 280
Chapter 280 Yun Yao Committed Suicide
Yun Xiao looked at the strange and somewhat familiar figure blocking the door and berated sternly, “What’s going on?”
The maidservant wearing an orange jacket raised her head and saw Yun Xiao blocking the door. After a moment of change in expression, she knelt down with an embarrassed expression and said respectfully, “This servant greets the fourth young lady.”
Yun Xiao looked at the kneeling woman and couldn’t remember where she had seen her. She looked at Housekeeper Li beside her and asked curiously, “Housekeeper Li, what’s going on here?”
Housekeeper Li’s forehead was covered in cold sweat. Although the Fourth Young Lady rarely cared about these matters, she didn’t know when she would always have a faint aura on her body, causing people to be respectful.
Housekeeper Li restrained his thoughts and bowed to Yun Xiao. “Reporting to Fourth Miss, this maidservant is the third-class maidservant Yu’er in the old lady’s room. When she heard that Fourth Miss replied, she clamored to see Fourth Miss. This servant is blocking her way outside.”
Yun Xiao once again looked at the woman who had been kneeling on the ground. No wonder she felt familiar. It turned out to be a maid in the Madam Yuan courtyard. The corner of her mouth curled into a faint mockery, and her voice was indifferent without a trace of emotion. “What are you looking for me for?”
The matter of her returning to the manor had already reached Madam Yuan’s ears in just one meal’s time. This speed was astonishing.
However, this also made Yun Xiao clearly know that even though Yun Clan was in charge, there were still many servants who obeyed Madam Yuan’s words.
Looks like this Yun Clan’s maidservant still hasn’t figured out which camp she should stand on!
Yu’er listened to Yun Xiao’s chill that seemed to come from her bones. She felt her body involuntarily tremble twice. She lay on the ground and bowed. She cried and said, “Young lady, Old Madame asked this servant to invite you to her room. She also said that if this servant did not invite the fourth young miss, there would be no need for her to go back.”
Yun Xiao looked at the maidservant mockingly, her eyes filled with mockery. The smile at the corner of her mouth became even more intense. “Since that’s the case, then you don’t have to go back. I remember that there is still a gap in the big kitchen. You can go work there.”
Right now, Yun Xiao was extremely annoyed with Madam Yuan, Madam Sun, and the others using such an excuse to invite her over.
If Yun Yao hadn’t invited him over yesterday, nothing would have happened to him.
Of course, what made Yun Xiao angry was the attitude of Yuan shi and the others. Up until now, they still thought that they were the soft-hearted Yun Clan’s fourth young lady.
Since they had used such a move every time, Yun Xiao had no choice but to retaliate.
Since they didn’t want the maids to go back, then they wouldn’t go back.
Coincidentally, he also gave the maids and servants in the manor a warning. Who exactly was this Yun Xiao in charge now? Who had the right to decide where they were going!
This is also a lesson for Madam Yuan and the others. In the future, you must never use such a move again. Otherwise, if you send a maidservant here, I will take one away. In the end, it will be them who will suffer.
At this moment, the people who heard Yun Xiao’s words all looked at Yun Xiao blankly. They couldn’t believe that Yun Xiao actually said such words.
Furthermore, the one who was most shocked was Yu’er. She did not expect that she would receive such a reply from the fourth young miss.
However, being able to go to the big kitchen was definitely a beautiful job. Not to mention the big kitchen, it was much freer than serving in the upper room.
Moreover, she could only be a third-class maid in the upper room. She only received one tael of monthly silver, but in the kitchen, the lowest monthly silver was two taels of monthly silver.
Hearing this, Yu’er couldn’t make up her mind whether she should thank him or invite the fourth young lady to her room.
Yun Xiao looked at the hesitation on Yu’er’s face and sneered, “Since you have assigned a job, you can go to the big kitchen to help now.”
With Yun Xiao’s words, Yu’er immediately made another noise and thanked her. After she left, she did not say anything more about inviting the fourth girl to her room.
Housekeeper Li secretly admired this scene. With Yun Xiao’s actions today, the people from the Yun Clan who obeyed Madam Yuan’s instructions would probably have to carefully consider it.
Yun Xiao calculated that it was almost time, so she pulled Brother Han and said, “Doctor Wang, please come in with us and take a look at my father’s body.”
Doctor Wang naturally wouldn’t refuse. He secretly praised the Yun Family’s fourth young lady for her decisiveness and ability.
Yun Xiao instructed Butler Li to bring over Yun Maozhe’s medicinal food, and the few of them entered the room together.
Yun Xiao turned to the inner room and saw that Madam Lu had stopped crying. Yun Maozhe was leaning against a large pillow and the two of them were whispering.
After the few of them entered, Yun Xiao whispered, “Mom and Dad.”
Mrs. Lu’s face turned slightly red when she heard the voice. She immediately retracted her hand that was being held by Yun Maozhe and coughed dryly before saying, “Xiaoxiao is here.” Turning around to see the doctor, she immediately said, “Please treat my master again.”
After the doctor bowed to Yun Maozhe and Madam Lu, he walked to the bed and checked Yun Maozhe’s pulse.
Yun Xiao and the others stood at the side without saying anything. There was a faint aura of tranquility in the air.
After an unknown amount of time, Doctor Wang said, “Congratulations, Master Yun, your body is fine now. You just need to rest properly. These days, it’s best to rest quietly and not have any complicated matters.”
Mrs. Lu immediately looked at Doctor Wang in surprise and said respectfully, “Thank you Doctor, thank you Doctor.”
Yun Xiao hurriedly asked Qiushuang to get the reward for Doctor Wang, and the doctor prescribed some medicine for Yun Maozhe before leaving.
After the doctor left, the butler also walked in with the medicinal food.
Yun Xiao handed the medicinal food to Madam Lu and asked Madam Lu to feed it to Yun Maozhe. Yun Maozhe was watched by the two children and felt a little embarrassed. He smiled and said, “Daddy’s illness has made you worried. You guys are also tired. Go back and rest first.”
Brother Han said innocently, “Daddy, I’m not tired.”
Yun Xiao immediately pulled Brother Han’s little hand and smiled. “Brother Han and I will go back first. Daddy and mother take good care of our bodies.”
After she finished speaking, she left with Brother Han. Brother Han did not say with a worried expression until he left the house, “Fourth sister, I still need to see Daddy. Why did you bring me out?”
“Didn’t you see Father and Mother? Are you whispering?” Yun Xiao nodded at Brother Han with a smile.
Today was finally a happy day.
Brother Han’s face turned slightly red as he said dryly, “I understand. Fourth sister, I’ll go back first.” Being ridiculed by Fourth Sister like this made him feel embarrassed. Moreover, he still had to read the letter Ruo Ruo gave him.
Yun Xiao chuckled as she watched Brother Han’s back grow farther and farther away, and the smile on her lips grew thicker and thicker.
Only then did he bring Qing Mo back to his own Rose Courtyard. Qing Mo looked at Yun Xiao curiously, “Your grandmother is looking for you so urgently. Aren’t you going to take a look?”
Yun Xiao shook her head, and her expression became a little tired. “No,” Madam Yuan looked for her. There must be nothing good about it. Therefore, if she came over like this, it would also add to her blockage. If she didn’t go back to rest for a while, then she would go to her room.
She had been fighting with Zhou Jingyan in the Imperial Study for a long time today, but now she did not have the slightest bit of energy, so she did not want to add to her blockage.
When Qing Mo saw this, he didn’t say anything else.
Yun Xiao was just a girl who hadn’t left the pavilion. The things that happened today were already hard to endure. It was already quite good for Yun Xiao to be able to endure until now without collapsing.
After Yun Xiao and Qing Mo entered the Rose Courtyard, they had Chun Lan change the medicine for them. Looking at the blood stains on the wound, Yun Xiao only frowned, but did not say anything.
This time, take it as a lesson for yourself.
Looking at the exhausted Yun Xiao who had changed the medicine, Qing Mo originally didn’t want to say anything, but she couldn’t help but ask, “Miss, aren’t you going to reply to the little master?”
The Little Master and the Crown Prince had written for a long time, but Yun Xiao had not written back yet.
If he said that he would reply to the Crown Prince’s letter, Yun Xiao would definitely not be willing, and she might even drive him out.
However, Yun Xiao and Rong Ruo’s relationship was extremely good. Qing Mo pondered for a while before finally asking this question.
Yun Xiao raised her head and looked at Qing Mo who was not far away.
Previously, she thought that Qing Mo was cold and didn’t eat human fireworks. She didn’t expect that when she really got along with him, it would really overturn her cognition.
She had never thought that Qing Mo would say so much.
Thinking of the person with Rong Ruo, Yun Xiao snorted coldly, “I won’t return.”
Seeing that Qing Mo still wanted to speak, she frowned and said loudly, “You are not allowed to return!”
Qing Mo had a stern face and did not say anything, but Yun Xiao knew that Qing Mo would not listen to her words.
“If you write back, take advantage of this opportunity to return to the manor. I don’t want a maidservant who is here with me, but has someone else’s heart,” he sneered.
Qing Mo’s expression changed back and forth. He didn’t know what he had thought of. Finally, he nodded and said respectfully, “Yes, young lady.”
Yun Xiao waved Qing Mo back and took out the Liu Lin Road Seeking Diagram from Zhou Jingyan. After carefully examining it, the corner of her mouth slowly curled into a faint smile.
Tomorrow is a good day. It’s just about time to see Master.
Thinking back to the encounter with her master in her previous life, as well as the meal, Yun Xiao felt a little sweeter in her heart.
She was looking forward to meeting her master, Liu Chan, more and more.
Thinking of this, Yun Xiao hugged the painting and slowly fell asleep on the bed.
After Yun Xiao fell asleep, a maidservant suddenly barged into the Rose Courtyard. That maidservant’s speed was extremely fast, and her target was Yun Xiao’s bedroom.
If it wasn’t for Qing Mo’s quick reaction, this maidservant would have barged in.
Who knew that the maidservant was caught by Qing Mo, but she was also dishonest. She said loudly, “Fourth young miss, come out! My young miss committed suicide!”
Qing Mo furrowed his brows tightly and immediately pointed at the maidservant’s dumb acupoint. He lifted the maidservant up with one hand and locked her up in his room.
Hearing the steady sound of breathing coming from Yun Xiao’s room, Qing Mo also heaved a sigh of relief.
When Chun Lan heard the maidservant’s words, she was somewhat nervous. She discussed with Qing Mo, “Third Young Lady committed suicide. Should we notify her?”
Qing Mo’s indifferent eyes glanced at Chun Lan and said indifferently, “No need.”
“But, if this matter were to spread out, would it harm our girl’s reputation?” Chun Lan was still a little hesitant. Logically speaking, it was not easy for the girl to rest now. It was not good to disturb her. However, if the third girl really committed suicide and they knew about it, they would not go. The reputation of the fourth girl would be greatly damaged.
“Don’t worry,” Yun Yao had seen her before. If that woman committed suicide, there would really be a ghost. Perhaps it was the fourth girl who was tricked.
However, this time, Qing Mo was wrong …
