Chapter 103

"I said I was helping her, but actually I was helping myself."

Upon hearing this, Jixiang knew that this person had another idea in mind.

Since that's the case, all she needs to do is follow orders.

Jixiang nodded and turned to leave.

No one knows what method she used, but when she returned, she had a happy face: "Don't worry, miss, the matter has been accomplished, and Pearl has already left!"

Yunxi nodded: "Then let's just wait and see."

——

As expected, Madam Yun did not disappoint her; she arrived in less than an hour.

As soon as Madam Yun arrived, she quickly helped Yun Wan up, her eyes filled with heartache: "How could this happen! Isn't your mother-in-law a kind-hearted person? How could she punish you like this?!"

Yun Wan's eyes reddened: "It was because I did something wrong before that I displeased my mother-in-law. Today, I was scolded by Yun Xi and my mother-in-law caught me doing it, so she took the opportunity to make things difficult for me!"

Upon hearing that Yunxi was involved, Madam Yun's heart skipped a beat: "What's wrong? Did Yunxi upset you?"

"No, that's not it," Yun Wan shook her head. "I just had a question I wanted to ask her. My subordinates lost their composure for a moment, and my mother-in-law misunderstood me!"

Upon hearing this, Madam Yun secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and her tone softened: "Since it's a misunderstanding, we can find an opportunity to clear it up in the future. After all, she is your mother-in-law, do you understand?"

Yun Wan nodded.

"And as for Yunxi, she's an honest girl. I already gave her a warning when I called her back last time. Now she knows what to say and do, so you don't need to waste your energy on her."

"If anything happens again, just tell me, so your mother-in-law won't find any more excuses against you."

Madam Yun's words were so well said that no one could find fault with them.

Yun Wan nodded again, lowering her voice, and said, "Mother, is there still no solution regarding the doctor?"

Madam Yun sighed and said, "Don't worry, your father and I have kept this in mind and haven't forgotten about it for a moment!"

"Um......"

The mother and daughter wanted to talk a little longer, but unfortunately, a servant from the Yun family rushed over and said that something had happened in Yunhai and that Madam Yun should go back immediately.

Madam Yun couldn't help but curse inwardly.

I'm usually home all the time and there's never this much going on. It's such a rare treat to finally go out...

At this moment, Yun Wan had composed herself: "Mother, my brother's matter is important, you should go back quickly."

Seeing that she was sensible, Madam Yun was even more gratified: "Then Mother will come to see you again next time."

"Um."

Madam Yun got up and hurriedly left, only to see Shen Rang on his way back at the second gate.

"Mother-in-law." Shen Rang cupped his hands in greeting, his tone calm, but at least he made the proper gesture.

Madam Yun smiled and nodded: "Young master, you should go back quickly. Wanwan has suffered a great injustice. You must comfort her for me!"

"Take care, Mother-in-law."

Madam Yun assumed he had agreed and hurriedly left.

Shen Rang didn't take her words to heart, but just as he passed through the hanging flower gate, he suddenly stopped.

He turned his head sharply and looked in the direction where Madam Yun had left.

Madam Yun and Yun Xi seem... not to look very alike.
