Revenge of the First Daughter - Chapter 57
Chapter 057 Centrifugal Scheme
She was accusing herself of clinging to the Shen Clan! Yun Yao was very angry, but when she thought about it, she suddenly laughed, “You really should learn it.”
Yun Xiao only smiled and remained silent, while Yun Yao turned around and went back to the room to tidy up her clothes.
Not long after, Rong Jin and Shen Yingfan walked in together. Rong Jin was still wearing a moon-white robe. His ink hair was tied behind his head with only a silk belt. Shen Yingfan wore a dark purple robe with a crown tied around his hair.
Both of them had a smile on their lips, but in Yun Xiao’s eyes, they had completely different styles.
After Shen Yingfan and Rong Jin entered, they cupped their hands slightly to Madam Yuan and sat down. A maidservant had already come in to serve tea.
Rong Jin sat under Yun Xiao, while Shen Yingfan sat opposite. Although he was surprised why the guests were in the Yun Clan’s Young Master’s courtyard, he did not say it too directly, “I wonder if Brother Yun Yang is in the manor today?”
Madam Yuan sat at the top with a kind expression, “Yes, but the eldest young master is not feeling well today, so it’s inconvenient to come out.”
“So that’s how it is. Then little nephew, go and visit Brother Yun Yang.” His marriage with Yun Yao has not been decided yet. The two families are in discussion, so he came to Yun Mansion on the basis of Yun Yang’s reputation.
“No need. I just came out of Big Brother’s room. Big Brother just fell asleep. Yun Yao thanked Eldest Young Master on behalf of Big Brother.” A beautiful figure walked in from outside. Yun Yao was dressed in a rosy red dress and had an exquisite makeup on her face. The only difference was that Yun Yao was smiling slightly and was quiet. Her watery eyes were filled with an indescribable affection.
This expression was truly in place! Yun Xiao had no choice but to sigh with emotion. This Yun Yao was truly capable of changing. In just the time it took for a cup of tea, she had completely changed.
She suddenly remembered what Yun Yao had once said, “Life is like a play. It’s all based on acting. Unfortunately, you don’t even know such a low level of acting.”
Yun Xiao’s expression turned cold as she looked at the appropriate smile on Yun Yao’s face. An unclear emotion flashed through her eyes.
The corner of Rong Jin’s eyes looked in the direction of Yun Xiao, as if he couldn’t see the expression on her face at this moment. He said softly, “Fourth Young Lady, did you invite me here to receive guests just to watch these fake acts?”
The water in Yun Xiao’s mouth almost spat out, but she was the fourth young lady of the Yun Clan, so she naturally could not do such a disgraceful thing. She forcefully swallowed the tea, “Young Master Rong, what do you say?”
On the other hand, Yun Yao, who was filled with affection, also had a stiff expression in her eyes. How could this be Young Master Rong! He was clearly a shameless person! She was just about to explode, but when she remembered that Shen Yingfan was still at the side, she could only suppress her anger and grievance and said, “Young Master Rong, how should I start with this? But there is something wrong with Fourth Sister’s hospitality? If that’s the case, Yun Yao is willing to apologize to Young Master Rong on behalf of Fourth Sister.”
This ability to reverse black and white was truly amazing. Yun Xiao couldn’t help but want to praise her. She replied with a taught expression, “Thank you, Fourth Sister.” Based on her understanding of Rong Jin these days, since this man had said such a sentence, there must be more to come.
Rong Jin smiled and drank a mouthful of tea from the teacup. He smiled lightly and said, “I’m very satisfied with the good tea the fourth young lady has served me. However, some of the noises are too noisy.” She almost said that the noisy person was Yun Yao.
Yun Yao’s face was ashen. Originally, she wanted to refute him, but she suddenly chuckled. She looked at Shen Yingfan with tearful eyes. Although her face was smiling, it carried traces of grievance.
When Yun Yao saw Shen Yingfan, she felt her heart soften inexplicably. “Since Young Master Rong is here as a guest of the Yun Clan, I hope that you can respect the people of the Yun Clan, let alone the people of the Yun Clan.”
Rong Jin raised his eyebrows and looked at the man opposite him, but his eyes were filled with undisguised ridicule. “It was for the sake of Yun Clan that I said this. Can’t Young Master Shen hear any cries outside?” Wasn’t it disrespectful to the guests when a woman cried during the reception? “I’m doing this for Yun Mansion’s sake. If the host doesn’t appreciate it, then let’s pretend that I didn’t say anything.”
Shen Yingfan was choked by this sentence. Originally, he wanted to refute it, but he heard strands of crying and cries of pain in his ears. His eyebrows turned cold, “Young Master Rong is really kind. Since that’s the case, I hope that the fourth young miss will give an explanation.”
He had heard that the moment Yun Maozhe left, the management of the house and shop had all been handed over to Yun Xiao. That was why he had said this on purpose to make things difficult for Yun Xiao.
Yun Xiao’s gaze landed on Yun Yao with a faint smile. Yun Yao’s heart trembled and she had a bad feeling. It was already too late for her to stop Yun Xiao.
Yun Xiao chuckled, “Thank you two for today, but I hope you two don’t take this to heart. This cry is just a house-to-house maidservant sent by Third Sister. That house-to-house is too bold, and she actually secretly switched to Yu Zitang to conceive her eldest brother’s child. How can such a lowly person give birth to Yun Clan’s eldest son?” That’s why Third Sister decided to beat the child out of her stomach. She’s giving birth now. ”
After she finished speaking, she looked at Shen Yingfan and said, The red light on his face suddenly disappeared. He continued, “Speaking of which, Third Sister did the right thing. Big Brother hasn’t married yet, so how can he let a Tong Fang have a child? However, that Tong Fang relied on Big Brother’s favor to act recklessly and charge into Third Sister. This kind of woman dares to charge into Third Sister now. Doesn’t the eldest son in the future make the manor unbearable?”
Yun Yao was still somewhat indignant at Yun Xiao’s words at first, wanting to stop her, but after Yun Xiao finished speaking, she stopped.
This time, it happened that Chu Yun had used Chu Yun to accuse Shen Yingfan of treachery, causing a woman to be pregnant. Moreover, Madam Shen had pointed out the identity of the woman to Shen Yingfan. With such an identity, she would not be able to act presumptuously in the manor at that time?
Even if he married into a proper wife, he wouldn’t be able to do well. She already had a grudge in her heart, and at this moment, it immediately exploded out.
Her eyes had always been watching Shen Yingfan’s expression, wanting to know what he thought about this matter.
Shen Yingfan’s eyes were deep. At this moment, he didn’t know what he was thinking. His gaze suddenly looked at Yun Yao. Her tears made people soft-hearted. He had always thought that she was a considerate girl, but now he had doubts in his heart.
Even if Yun Yang really doted on the maidservant to get her pregnant, it was still a matter in Yun Yang’s room. It was against the rules for a younger sister to interfere in such a matter.
Moreover, he remembered that there was also a female servant who was pregnant in his room. Now that his mother was protecting him, the child was still alive. Yun Yao had also mentioned the female servant many times. Now that he heard such a thing, he had no choice but to doubt Yun Yao’s intentions.
No matter how much Madam Shen was her mother, he had already disobeyed her wishes for Yun Yao many times. If Yun Yao could not understand her own hardships and kept forcing her, she would be too disappointed.
Moreover, Yun Maozhe, that old man, actually handed over the property under his name to Yun Xiao to take care of. Was this saying that Yun Xiao was Yun Maozhe’s daughter? When the time comes, there will be more dowries?
Men are like this. The first thing they think about is their own interests.
Shen Yingfan’s expression was gloomy, but soon, a smile appeared on his handsome face. However, the smile was very faint. “I believe that Young Master Yun will handle this matter well.”
Yun Yao’s expression darkened as she looked at Shen Yingfan in disbelief. Did his words already indicate his attitude towards the house opening in the courtyard of Shen Manor?
She only felt a wisp of anger rise in her heart, but very quickly, this wisp of anger disappeared because she saw the inquiry in Shen Yingfan’s eyes. Whether she could marry into Shen Manor as her main wife was all on Shen Yingfan. Right now, the only person she could count on was him. She must not let him hate her.
Yun Yao secretly pinched herself. The pain brought her back to her senses. She picked up a handkerchief and wiped away the tears at the corner of her eyes. “Young Master Shen said that I was reckless in this matter. The house was going to strangle me like crazy today and even made a move on me. I was also trying to protect my body.”
She paused slightly. “Big Brother was still lying in the hospital bed. Mother and grandmother are getting old again, so I can’t be frightened. I just ordered someone to catch her. I didn’t expect her to hit the pillar and be pulled back. I didn’t expect the child in her stomach to be unprotected. I have to apologize to Big Brother for this.”
When Yun Xiao heard Yun Yao’s words, she secretly laughed. It seemed that she had underestimated Yun Yao and was actually able to fabricate such a story.
Sure enough, Shen Yingfan’s face was already much better looking, and his eyes were still filled with anger. If Chu Yun hit Yun Yao’s body, then the child in Yun Yao’s stomach would also be gone. Shen Yingfan would only feel guilty for what he said earlier.
As expected, Shen Yingfan’s voice was less cold than before. “It’s really hard on Third Young Lady.”
Yun Xiao stirred the handkerchief in her hand, and her face became a little pale, as if she was truly frightened. “Third sister has always been extremely good, so she is the most compatible with Young Master Shen.”
When Rong Jin saw that the man and woman had already revealed a triumphant smile, a hint of ridicule appeared in the depths of his eyes.
Sure enough, he heard Yun Xiao’s words and continued, “My decision to give Young Master Shen to Third Sister was indeed correct. Daddy praised me for being obedient, so he left the Yun Clan’s property in the capital to me to take care of. I have to thank Third Sister for all of this.”
Shen Yingfan’s face was ashen. Yun Xiao’s identity was the real daughter-in-law of the Shen Clan. However, she could not be loved by Old Madam Shen. Even the Lu Clan was dispensable. So what if Yun Maozhe doted on this daughter? He was not in the capital all year round. The capital’s property had always been under the care of Old Madame. Even when Yun Xiao married, as long as Old Madame Shen was willing, she could make a mess of Yun Xiao’s dowry.
On the other hand, Yun Yao was different. Her mother was Ping Xiao’s wife. Her status was indeed lower than Yun Xiao’s, but she could also get Yun Maozhe’s affection. She obediently understood Old Madame Yun’s affection and was also the daughter of Old Madame’s niece. Her status in the Shen Clan could be said to be as high as the sun.
After marrying her, he obtained all the help of the Yun Clan. This was a good thing for him. Moreover, Yun Yao was more beautiful than Yun Xiao, and she surpassed Yun Xiao in every aspect.
However, when all of Yun Yao’s advantages ceased to exist, Shen Yingfan was slightly shaken.
He kept thinking about how to get the most out of himself.
He looked at the child in Yun Yao’s stomach, and a wisp of deep thought flashed through his eyes.
When Yun Yao sensed Shen Yingfan’s subconscious behavior, she only felt a chill in her heart. A bad feeling rushed into her heart.
She glared fiercely at Yun Xiao. The hands under her wide sleeves were tightly clenched together. She would definitely not let go of this Yun Xiao who had always ruined her own good deeds!
At this moment, a man wearing a navy blue robe ran in from outside the door. He was unable to limp.
