Revenge of the First Daughter - Chapter 282
Chapter 282 Take Charge of the Overall Situation
Yun Xiao looked at the silver hairpin lying at Madam Yuan’s feet, emitting a faint glow under the light. Her gaze was cold and deep, and the anger in her eyes was not concealed at all. She coldly snorted, “Grandmother, what’s going on with this silver hairpin?”
Everyone could clearly see that if Madam Lu really fell, this silver hairpin would really pierce through Madam Lu’s brain.
Even if she didn’t stab Madam Lu, Madam Lu had knelt here for two hours. Her legs and feet were numb, and it was only a matter of time before she retreated.
And if he really got stabbed in the brain, the immortal would be able to save his life!
This was Madam Yuan harming Madam Lu’s life!
After a moment of panic, Madam Yuan’s expression returned to normal. He coldly snorted and looked at Yun Xiao, “Yun Xiao, what do you mean?”
The moment Yun Maozhe saw Madam Lu survive, he heaved a sigh of relief. He strode to Madam Lu’s side, but Madam Lu did not look at him, causing Yun Maozhe to feel cold in his heart.
“What do you mean? Please explain why there is a silver hairpin behind my mother? Grandmother, let alone someone casually throwing it into this flower pot. If you can accurately throw the silver hairpin into the flower pot, that person’s accuracy must be excellent. Not only must he be accurate, he must also be well-proportioned and aim the sharp side at my mother.” Although Yun Xiao did not like Madam Yuan, Madam Sun, Yun Yao, and the others, she had never had any killing intent towards them.
Even when it came to food and clothing, they were always the first to tighten their grip on these people.
Even if Madam Yuan and the others were to go on a hunger strike these days, Yunxiao still had people deliver the meals they deserved every day, and even had people feed the soup that Madam Yuan wanted to drink. Wasn’t that for their own sake?
Previously, Madam Sun wanted to harm Second Brother, but later, Madam Sun’s biological son, Yun Yang, died. This could be considered as defending Second Brother’s life in her previous life. However, she had never thought of killing these people. Even if she did not like these people, she would still think of them.
However, Yun Xiao dared to gamble with her life. In her entire life, she had never mistreated someone like the Yuan Clan that could be considered a family!
But what about the rewards?
They repeatedly wanted to kill their mother and son. In their previous life, their second brother died because of Madam Sun. Brother Han was also the one who bribed them to kidnap them. Although Yun Xiao hated them, she did more to protect her family from accidents.
However, now, she did not owe them anything. She had done so much for these people. Not only did these people want to kill their second brother, Yun Yao had even bribed the people from the Ten Directions Palace to rob and kill her. She did not get angry and wanted Yun Yao to pay for her life. But now, these people had their heads tilted on their mother’s body.
They actually wanted their mother dead!
When Yun Xiao thought of this, a dense killing intent flashed through Gujing Wubo’s eyes!
To indulge the enemy was to be cruel to oneself.
If she and Qing Mo hadn’t come here today, they would have fallen backwards when they couldn’t hold on. At that time, the silver hairpin would have pierced through Mother’s brain mercilessly!
This time, Yun Xiao really wanted to poke open the brains of those people and see what was inside their brains!
When Madam Yuan saw Yun Xiao, she felt that although Yun Xiao was still smiling faintly at this moment, the coldness in her eyes was like a devil from hell, causing one’s entire body to freeze at a glance.
Madam Yuan couldn’t control her body and wanted to tremble, but she suddenly remembered something. She grabbed the armrests on both sides of the soft chair with her hands and felt even more hatred towards Yun Xiao in her heart.
Yun Xiao’s words just now were indeed her words.
However, these words came from Yun Xiao’s mouth and carried a strong sense of ridicule.
‘”Yun Xiao, what nonsense are you talking about? I only arrived here after Madam Lu, so I didn’t have the chance to put the silver hairpin in.” Madam Yuan looked at Yun Xiao as if she was looking at a dead person. In the end, she was still a little scared.
However, after she finished speaking, seeing the anger on Yun Xiao’s face, her heart also became more embarrassed for a moment. She actually admitted defeat in front of Yun Xiao, then how would she compete with Yun Xiao for her family property in the future?
In the blink of an eye, Madam Yuan’s thoughts moved extremely quickly. She harshly scolded, “Madam Lu, without my permission, you actually didn’t kneel down! Do you feel comfortable just because you want me to kneel in front of you?”
Since she could not teach Yun Xiao a lesson, Madam Yuan immediately poured her anger on Madam Lu.
Mrs. Lu’s body trembled slightly when she heard Madam Yuan’s words. She struggled free from Qing Mo’s hand and was about to kneel down.
However, at this moment, a slender hand supported Madam Lu’s hand. “Mother, don’t kneel. If grandmother is willing to kneel, then kneel down. We didn’t force her!” Moreover, Mother didn’t do anything wrong, why did she kneel? Was it the child who died in Third Sister’s stomach? Or should I keep my grandmother’s filial piety? If it was a child kneeling, then if the child wanted to call her grandmother, how could she kneel for this junior? “If you are kneeling grandmother and protecting grandmother’s filial piety, then there is no need. Grandmother is still alive and well.”
It must have been precisely this kind of move that Madam Yuan had used to make Mother kneel in the cold wind.
Even if Madam Yuan did something wrong, she was still an elder. Her mother was educated in politics, so how could she make an elder kneel before her?
Because of this, neither father nor mother could refuse.
But now, when she recalled her past life and looked at the things before her, Yun Xiao completely forgot about Yuan shi and the others. Since they weren’t as good as them, why would she leave any face for Yuan shi?
When Yun Maozhe heard this, a trace of disapproval appeared in his eyes. Seeing that Madam Yuan was about to speak, Yun Maozhe immediately said, “Xiaoxiao, don’t make a mistake.”
If Madam Yuan were to teach Yun Xiao a lesson, she wouldn’t know what the quarrel would be like today.
Yun Xiao looked at Yun Maozhe and sighed.
Daddy treated his mother well, but unfortunately, a hat of filial piety pressed down on his body, making Yun Maozhe unable to speak at all.
Madam Yuan stared at the family opposite him, his fingers trembling as he looked at Yun Xiao with unconcealable anger. “Yun Xiao, what did you say? Do you dare to repeat what you said before? Also, you, Yun Maozhe, I am your mother. Your daughter cursed me and let me die. You actually flipped it over with just one sentence.”
Yun Xiao’s faint gaze swept past everyone around her and said sternly, “Grandmother, am I cursing you? I’m sure you know very well in your heart that the person who can make your mother kneel here is only your father. No matter what, her mother is the head mother of the Yun Clan. If you make the head mother kneel, don’t you want your mother to be filial?” “Father is in his prime, and the only one dying is grandmother. Those who don’t know will definitely think that grandmother is asking her daughter-in-law to protect her filial piety in advance!”
Yun Xiao knew that she absolutely could not indulge them like this, otherwise, she would definitely be the only one who regretted it in the end.
But now, since Daddy has been unable to make up his mind, she will help Daddy make a decision! The Yun Clan has been in a miasma for too long, and it really needs to be properly rectified.
“You, you!” Yuan shi’s body trembled with anger, and her eyes were about to split open. She wished she could bite Yun Xiao to death in one bite.
Nowadays, these elderly people were especially taboo about the word death, deeply afraid that one day, they would be hooked by the King of Hell.
Now, Yun Xiao did not leave the word “death”, which made Yuan shi angry as well as hateful, and she also felt a trace of faint panic in her heart.
Seeing that Madam Yuan couldn’t take it anymore, to breathe, Madam Sun immediately stepped forward, Stretching out his hand to help Madam Yuan heal his anger, he said, Chu Chu looked pitifully at Yun Maozhe. “Husband, mother is your biological mother. How can you let a junior insult mother like this? Besides, Yao’er’s life and death are unknown, and she has lost her child in her belly. I wonder if she can pass this test. Husband actually let a junior who hasn’t left the pavilion come here to say such sarcastic words. How can you bear it?”
Yun Xiao looked at Madam Sun with admiration in her heart. She did not expect that after this incident, Madam Sun would finally be smart enough to choose the words that would make Yun Maozhe’s heart soften.
However, Yun Xiao did not see any of these tricks in her eyes.
Without waiting for Yun Maozhe to speak, Yun Xiao looked at Madam Sun and Madam Yuan with a faint smile, “Second Mother, since you are so worried about grandmother’s body and the child in third sister’s belly, why did you call grandmother here to visit?” Didn’t Second Mother know that grandmother’s health had always been bad? In addition, Second Mother said that I’m a junior who hasn’t left the pavilion, so I don’t refute. Second Mother, do you think I want to come? “Even if there aren’t seven or eight people in my courtyard, there are still a dozen or so people. They were all sent by you to invite me here. Second Mother didn’t care about my reputation so much, and now she is pretending to be. Don’t you think that she is very disgusting?”
Madam Sun glared at Yun Xiao angrily. This junior that she had never seen before, when did she actually have such a sharp tongue!
She would definitely be able to use words to stop her from retaliating!
The corner of Madam Sun’s mouth trembled, but there was no way to refute it. In the end, he could only say, “Your relationship with your third sister has always been good. Your third sister’s life and death are unknown. I thought you would want to meet your third sister.”
A cold smile flashed across Yun Xiao’s mouth. If she said that she did not want to see him, would Madam Sun say that she did not care about sisterhood? “Third sister begged for her own death. It’s already a great fortune that she didn’t die. I thought Second Mother had called me here in a hurry to let me see Third sister one last time.”
“You!” Madam Sun’s expression was unsightly. This woman’s mouth was so fierce that a few words could make people angry.
Yun Xiao ignored the shouts of Madam Yuan and Madam Sun and said to Chun Lan beside her, “Chun Lan, you and Qiu Shuang, help my mother back to my courtyard and have a good rest. Boil more ginger water for my mother and soak her in a hot bath.”
With such a cold body, if she wasn’t prepared beforehand, Madam Lu would probably have a fever tonight.
The woman’s body was not as sturdy as the man’s. If she had a fever, it would be very difficult to recover. Now, Yun Xiao was a little worried about letting Madam Lu return to her own courtyard.
Madam Lu said hesitantly, “Xiaoxiao, I’m fine. Wait here for a while longer. Besides, I’ll just go back to my own courtyard.” Yunxiao was already so big. She felt that it was not good to spend the night in Yunxiao’s courtyard again, but Madam Lu’s heart was warm because of Yunxiao’s words.
“No way. Mother is the grandmother of the Yun Family. She just died an unsightly child. There is no need to stay here and guard her.” Seeing that Madam Lu still wanted to speak, Yun Xiao directly ordered, “Chun Lan, didn’t you hear what I said?”
Chun Lan immediately replied, “This servant will definitely live up to her mission.” After she finished speaking, she pushed Madam Lu away.
Seeing Madam Lu leave, Madam Yuan’s expression was extremely embarrassed. She said calmly, “Madam Lu, you can’t leave!”
Yun Xiao looked at Madam Yuan with a faint smile and a cold look in her eyes. “Why can’t I leave? Stay behind and continue to be filial to grandmother?”
Yun Maozhe looked at Madam Lu without even looking at him. He felt as if something was missing from his heart. His brows furrowed tightly. Hearing Yun Xiao’s words again, his expression became somewhat embarrassed. “Xiaoxiao …”
Yun Xiao coldly looked at Yun Maozhe and said mercilessly, “Father, if you still want to see Mother, don’t speak.”
Although Yun Maozhe wanted to say more, he still swallowed the persuasion that had reached his mouth.
Yun Xiao saw that Yun Maozhe’s face was full of exhaustion. Thinking that Yun Maozhe was still suffering from the cold today, she couldn’t bear it anymore. “Daddy, leave this to me. You can go back and rest first.”
Yun Maozhe naturally didn’t want to leave. Although he felt very tired, he didn’t want to see the hatred between Madam Yuan and Yun Xiao. “No, I…”
