Chapter 269

Shen felt a sweet warmth in his heart.

Looking at Shen Rang, who was suddenly smiling ambiguously, Yun Xi tilted her head, somewhat puzzled.

"It's nothing," Shen Rang said, pulling her cloak tighter around her. "Let's go back. If you stand here any longer, you'll really catch a cold."

Upon hearing his words, Yunxi knew that Shen Rang had seen through her excuse.

"Um."

——

In the front hall, the three sat facing each other, but the atmosphere was somewhat cold.

Finally, Yun Ruiyang spoke first, breaking the strange atmosphere: "My cousin has certainly seen something today."

She's not bad looking, but unfortunately, she's heartless and, more importantly, shameless. She dared to say such things in front of everyone.

They really come from the countryside; they have no manners.

Seeing her husband come and go with another woman, as if he didn't even see her, his legal wife, Yun Wan's face was beyond ugly, but she still had to force herself to say, "Please forgive my rudeness, cousin."

Yun Ruiyang sighed, feeling even more sorry for Yun Wan.

Madam Yun was also feeling bad, but fortunately Yun Wan now had hope and her rise to prominence was just around the corner, so she comforted her for a few moments and then got up and left with Yun Ruiyang.

As for the matter of reprimanding Yunxi, Madam Yun completely forgot about it.

After the two left the Marquis's residence, Yun Ruiyang couldn't wait to speak up: "Aunt, are we just going to stand by and watch Wanwan be bullied?"

Madam Yun was at her wit's end.

It's fine to comfort Yun Wan at the Marquis's residence, but why do I have to keep Yun Ruiyang in check after we're out here?

"Wanwan's current grievances are only temporary, can't you see that?"

“Does a temporary grievance mean it’s not a real grievance and doesn’t need to be taken seriously?” Yun Ruiyang said indignantly. “Aunt, we can’t treat Wanwan like this. Wanwan is your daughter whom you raised single-handedly!”

Madam Yun pressed her temples, too lazy to say anything more to him: "Don't get involved in the affairs of the inner quarters. Your parents sent a letter asking me to arrange a marriage for you with a girl from a good family in Luoyang City. She can stay in Luoyang afterward."

“No,” Yun Ruiyang refused without hesitation. “Aunt, you should go back by yourself. I want to wander around Luoyang City some more.”

Having finally seen Yun Wan again and knowing that she was having a hard time, Yun Ruiyang wanted to give her even more things to cheer her up.

——

The Marquis's residence was originally Baiju.

Yunxi returned to the courtyard and, using a random excuse, pulled Jixiang to a secluded spot: "Tell Doukou to go out and walk around the streets more these next few days, and find out if there's a doctor in Luoyang City who regularly provides free medical consultations."

Ji Xiang responded and left.

Yunxi didn't rush back, but sat down on the veranda, her thoughts drifting away.

The Yun family members, from top to bottom, are not very good, but they are lucky. The doctor that Yun Ruiyang found to treat Yun Wan is not only truly skilled, but more importantly, he cares about the common people and is a person of great righteousness, worthy of respect and admiration.

In her previous life, after she died, she learned that after that doctor came to Luoyang, he had been providing free medical care in various places, bringing hope to many patients who had no money to see a doctor and could only wait to die. Moreover, because of his outstanding medical skills, he even attracted the attention of the Imperial Hospital and left his name in front of the emperor.

But he had no interest in that, so he refused the Imperial Medical Academy's offer and continued to stay among the common people, treating the sick and poor.

This man, who was indifferent to fame and fortune and saved countless lives, ultimately died at the hands of Yun Wan.

Yun Wan once suffered from a strange illness. Although she has completely recovered, this strange illness has become a handle against her.

So after killing her, Yun Wan turned her attention to the doctor. When the doctor left Luoyang, she staged a scene of bandits ambushing and killing him, and burned all the doctor's medical logs that he had kept over the years.

Yunxi really didn't know whose blood flowed through Yunwan's body.

Why is it so cold?

Not only did they kill her, they also didn't spare the person who saved them.

Yunxi couldn't help but wonder what would happen to the Yun family if they didn't go along with Yun Wan's wishes.
