Yun Xi was displaced in the countryside for seventeen years. One day, she was found, only to tragically die on a rainy night.
She was forced to be a surrogate for her legitimate elder sister,...
Chapter 369
It's all Zheng's fault! He's such a pushover, letting others manipulate him at will. He's really embarrassed himself!
If Aunt Chen were here, the situation would definitely be completely different.
Unable to contain his anger, Shen Jun said, "Cousin and his wife, please go ahead. I have official business to attend to. Excuse me."
After saying that, Shen Jun turned and left.
Zheng's face turned even uglier.
In front of her cousin and his wife, Shen Jun didn't give her any face at all...
Yun Wan, standing to the side, made no attempt to smooth things over.
It was Madam Luo who spoke up: "Yushu, let's go inside. I'd like to see what new courtyard you've arranged for me."
Zheng forced an awkward smile: "Please, cousin-in-law."
The group headed towards the front courtyard and soon arrived at the guest room that Yun Wan had arranged for the two of them.
After everyone went inside and looked around, Madam Luo smiled and said, "Not bad, not bad, Yushu, you really are the most capable person!"
"My daughters-in-law took care of everything; I didn't have to lift a finger," Madam Zheng said with a faint smile. "My cousin and his wife have come all this way, so you should rest well. As for the welcome banquet, we can hold it after you've recovered, how about that?"
"I'll do whatever you say!"
Zheng found Yao Susu a good marriage, and now Luo smiles at her, which is quite rare.
Zheng nodded and left with Yun Wan and Yao Duoduo.
After passing through the hanging flower gate, Yun Wan took two steps forward and said, "Mother-in-law, let me take Miss Yao over there."
"Alright."
"Take care, Mother-in-law."
After watching Zheng leave, Yun Wan took Yao Duoduo to the courtyard that had been arranged for her long ago.
This was Yao Duoduo's first time in Luoyang and her first time entering the Marquis's residence. She was incredibly excited the whole way, but as she walked with Yun Wan, her expression changed.
Her feet were aching from walking, and she still hadn't arrived?
This mansion is ridiculously large!
Just when Yao Duoduo was almost convinced that Yun Wan was going to take her out and sell her, Yun Wan finally stopped in front of a courtyard: "This is it."
Although the courtyard in front of us is in a somewhat remote location and is rather small, it is still very well-organized, has everything it should, and is quite exquisite.
He looked around and pointed to a wall at the back of the yard, asking, "What's outside this?"
Yun Wan looked in the direction she was pointing: "It's a quiet alley outside, it won't disturb you."
Upon hearing this, Yao Duoduo's eyes widened immediately, and her voice suddenly became polite: "What?! You actually arranged for me to be placed in such a remote place?!"
After that shout, Yun Wan knew why Madam Zheng disliked her.
Yun Wan said helplessly, "Miss Yao, please don't get agitated. You don't know, the concubine in our courtyard is pregnant and needs peace and quiet, so..."
"Why should I be wronged just because a concubine is pregnant?!" Yao Duoduo protested. "I don't care, take me to her! I want to see who's wielding such power!"
Yun Wan looked helpless: "Miss Yao, our concubine is no ordinary person. She is the apple of our young master's eye. If you go over there and disturb her, it will be troublesome!"
"No matter how much she's not an ordinary person, she's just a concubine. What's the big deal?" Yao Duoduo refused to let it go. "Alright, enough talk, just take me there!"
She wanted to see just how delicate and pampered that concubine really was!
