Xu Wanyan was the legitimate daughter of the Grand Tutor's mansion. Her birth mother died young, her scumbag father didn't care for her, and no sooner had her mother passed away than the st...
"Wanyan, it's great to see you today."
Huang Yueping held her hand for a long time and was reluctant to let go.
Xu Wanyan felt warm in her heart, "Me too, I will often harass Aunt Huang in the future."
"Welcome, I welcome you very much. You and Fan'er should visit each other more often. You are siblings."
After saying that, Huang Yueping felt that she had said something wrong, and quickly added: "When the time comes, everyone will go find the young master together and reunite you and your sister."
"Thank you, thank you."
That was all Xu Wanyan could say, and besides, she was about to cry.
"Young lady, I want to follow you to the Xu family to serve you, but I am afraid of getting you into trouble."
Seeing Mother Lin's face full of guilt, Xu Wanyan gently took her hand and said seriously: "Mother Lin, you stay here with Aunt Huang first. When I succeed and avenge my mother, I will definitely take you over."
"Okay, okay, old slave, wait."
After saying goodbye, Xu Wanyan got on the carriage back home.
Qiao Yun looked at Xu Wanyan's depressed expression and didn't dare to speak. She just stayed with her quietly.
When she arrived at the Grand Tutor's Mansion, Xu Wanyan was a little frightened by the scene before her.
"Uncle Han, what's going on? Why are there so many..."
A yamen runner with a knife?
Butler Han sighed, "Second Miss, go back and rest quickly. The Grand Tutor and the Master are here."
Xu Wanyan nodded obediently, "Then I'll go back first. Thank you for your hard work, Uncle Han."
"It's not hard, it's not hard."
Looking at Xu Wanyan's receding back, Han Xinyuan sighed. It would be great if the eldest daughter was as sensible as the second daughter. In the final analysis, she was just spoiled.
After returning to Feiyun Garden, Xichun quickly told Xu Wanyan everything that had happened in the mansion.
"Miss, just as you left the house, someone from Shuntian Prefecture arrived."
"I heard that it was Master Lu and his mother who filed the complaint, saying that the Master intentionally injured someone."
"I heard that the censor next door also knows about it, and he said he will impeach the master in court tomorrow."
Xu Wanyan raised the corner of her mouth slightly. She was so happy to receive this good news right after returning.
Looking towards the west wing, she seemed to owe Xiao Jingming another favor.
It doesn’t matter, we’ll pay it back together at the critical moment.
At night, I heard ding-dong sounds coming from the front yard and the ancestral hall.
"Miss, the old man and Mr. Lu have reconciled."
Xu Wanyan's heart sank a little. She put down the water cup and asked coldly, "How did you reconcile?"
"Let the eldest lady marry him."
Xu Wanyan's expression suddenly turned from cloudy to bright, "It's true."
"It's true. The master and mistress were not very willing, so the old master punished them severely. The sound just now was them getting angry behind the old master's back."
Haha, Feiyunyuan heard it and still kept it secret.
However, her goal was achieved, she wanted to prevent Xu Wanqing from marrying the prince.
She let those three sinful people go to hell step by step.
"Go to sleep. I'll go see Zhao Yaru tomorrow. I'd feel impolite if I didn't give her my congratulations."
"Puff~"
"Miss, you are not afraid of making the lady angry to death."
"Angry to death? How can it be that easy?"
The next morning
After Xu Wanyan paid her morning and evening respects to Grand Tutor Xu, she went to Guan Zhaoyaru's ancestral hall.
"Oh, mother, is this still the mistress of the Xu family? Why does she look so... haggard?"
Hearing the joking words, Zhao Yaru slowly raised her head, and when she saw that it was Xu Wanyan, her face suddenly became ferocious.
"What are you doing here? You bitch!"
Xu Wanyan's expression changed, and she reached out and slapped her in the face.
Zhao Yaru was stunned for a moment. She probably never expected that Xu Wanyan would dare to slap her.
When she came to her senses, she immediately started cursing, "You little bitch, you actually dared to hit me, you're rebelling, you're rebelling."
As he said that, he rushed towards Xu Wanyan.
Seeing this, Qiao Yun quickly stopped Xu Wanyan and said, "Miss, please get out quickly. I will protect you."
Although Xu Wanyan was very touched, she didn't intend to leave just like that.
She raised her foot and kicked Zhao Yaru in the stomach.
"Ouch~"
With a scream of pain, Zhao Yaru fell to the ground.
Xu Wanyan stepped on her, then squatted down and said gloatingly: "Congratulations, mother, sister can finally marry the person she loves, you are going to be a mother-in-law."
"Nonsense, don't talk nonsense. My Di Wanqing will not marry that loser from the Lu family. Her future is bright."
Haha, it’s almost like saying that she is going to be the Crown Princess.
"Don't worry, you can be very successful if you marry Lu Mingxuan. Even though Lu Mingxuan was beaten half to death by his father, he is still a talented man. Mother, why are you so scornful of the poor and in love with the rich?"
"You, you go marry that loser. My Wanqing won't marry you."
As she spoke, Zhao Yaru, who had recovered her strength, planned to win back a game.
She had been deceived by this damn girl before, but she didn't expect her to be so cunning.
While she wasn't paying attention, she grabbed Xu Wanyan's hairpin and was about to stab her.
Xu Wanyan watched the hairpin stabbing towards her and listened carefully to the sounds outside.
Sure enough, the footsteps outside were getting closer.
At this moment, Xu Wanyan turned sideways and Zhao Yaru stabbed Xu Wanyan's arm.
"Miss……"
"Wen Yan..."
"Zhao Yaru!"
Three screams were heard, and Xu Wanyan fell down weakly.
Qiao Yun quickly ran to Xu Wanyan and gently helped her up.
"Miss, Miss, are you okay?"
After she finished speaking, she looked at Zhao Yaru with tears in her eyes and accused her in a passionate voice: "Madam, why did you kill the Second Young Miss? Why did you want to kill her again and again?"
"The Second Miss learned that you had been making noises all night long last night. She was so worried about you that she skipped breakfast and came to see you. But how about you?"
"You kicked her first, then pulled out the hairpin and stabbed her in the heart. If she hadn't dodged quickly, I'm afraid, I'm afraid... the young lady would have become the ghost under your hairpin, wuwuwu..."
"You, you're talking nonsense, I..."
"You're still making excuses. We've all seen what you've done, and yet you're still making excuses."
Looking at Grand Tutor Xu's stern face, Zhao Yaru's heart skipped a beat and she didn't know how to hold the hairpin in her hand.
"You've all been deceived by her. This girl is very cunning. Not a single word she told the truth was true. She was lying to you..."
"That's enough! We all saw it, and you're still pretending!"
The person who spoke was Xu Maocai. At first he couldn't believe what he saw.
But the facts are right in front of us, and we have to believe it even if we don’t want to.
"Maocai, you were really deceived by her. She, she kicked me first, and I don't believe you..."
"Me what?"
Zhao Yaru wanted to cry but had no tears. She couldn't lift her clothes and expose her belly in front of her father-in-law.
She glared at Xu Wanyan fiercely. This damn girl was so cunning.
Xu Wanyan shrank her neck under her gaze, "Father, I'm scared."
Zhao Yaru almost vomited blood.
"Don't be afraid, your father is here, your grandfather is here too, no one dares to bully you."
Xu Wanyan shook her head, tears streaming down her face. "Mother said she wanted to send my mother's dowry to the Lu family. Does she want me to marry my sister's beloved?"
