Zhizhi laughed heartily, and when talking about Shen Leyi's ugly behavior, she didn't hold back at all, and wasn't worried about "not speaking ill of Miss Shen Leyi".

Who could blame them when Shen Leyi was previously hated by everyone, while only their own young lady thought she was a good person?

Cai'er looked at Zhizhi and shook her head helplessly. She felt helpless too. This girl just didn't know how to control her temper. She still needed to keep an eye on her to prevent her from causing trouble in the future.

"Alright, stop keeping me in suspense and tell me quickly, what exactly happened?" Shen Yunxi chuckled.

Zhizhi continued, "It was quite a spectacle, but unfortunately I didn't witness it myself and can only hear about it through others, so the information is somewhat incomplete. It's said that when Fourth Miss ran out of the courtyard, she was already disheveled and her hair was loose. She was probably in such a hurry that she didn't pay attention to her appearance. When she got to the front hall, she saw Young Master He. She didn't go in empty-handed; she snatched a broom from a sweeping maid. Then, Fourth Miss stormed up to Young Master He with the broom, saying that she would rather marry a beggar than Young Master He, and that she shouldn't just sit and wait to die just because he deliberately saved her and ruined her reputation."

"That young master He was no pushover either. Perhaps the fourth young lady was right; he did it on purpose, his aim being to marry her. But in front of outsiders, he would never admit it, saying that the fourth young lady had misunderstood him. Unfortunately, the fourth young lady wouldn't listen. She grabbed a broom and started hitting young master He without holding back. Young master He, of course, didn't dare to hit back directly and could only dodge, resulting in him being covered in bruises. It wasn't too painful, but he was extremely embarrassed. It was only thanks to the old marquis that he was taken to a guest room and given a new set of clothes."

After listening quietly to Zhizhi's message, Shen Yunxi laughed. She hadn't expected that bringing Shen Leyi and He Zheng together would be so interesting, and that they would actually cause a ruckus right there at the Yong'an Marquis's residence.

It's a real pity that she was in the palace at the time and couldn't see such an interesting side of things.

"And then what happened? How is Fourth Sister now?" Shen Yunxi asked again.

Cai'er poured Shen Yunxi a cup of tea and then replied, "Fourth Miss has been confined to her quarters again. This time, there are more people guarding her than before, so it might not be easy for her to get out. Also, the marriage is still arranged, set for the sixteenth of next month. Fourth Miss broke quite a few things in her room. Third Madam was naturally distressed, but there was nothing she could do but agree and secretly arranged a considerable dowry, simply wanting Fourth Miss to live a better life. However, Fourth Miss seems to be blinded by greed and cannot appreciate Third Madam's kindness. She seems to hate Third Madam as well, feeling that she is not helping her."

"Tsk tsk, I never expected my fourth sister to be so formidable, managing to cause such a ruckus in the manor. I really underestimated her. But since my fourth sister is under house arrest, as her younger sister, I naturally have to go and see her. After all, she has always treated me 'extremely well,' so if I don't go and see her, wouldn't I seem heartless?" Shen Yunxi smiled mysteriously.

Zhizhi and Cai'er exchanged a glance, both seeing the schadenfreude in each other's eyes, which was directed at Shen Leyi.

In the past, it was always Shen Leyi who bullied their young lady, so they didn't think Shen Yunxi was being unfair by kicking her when she was down. They even hoped that the kicking would be even bigger.

“Miss is right. I believe Fourth Miss will be overjoyed and very excited about your arrival,” Zhizhi said with a smile.

Seeing Zhizhi's excited face and even Cai'er's eager look, Shen Yunxi chuckled.

"Okay, then you two come with me to see my dear fourth sister."

Upon receiving Shen Yunxi's reply, the two maids were overjoyed and could hardly contain their excitement. They had been waiting for this day for far too long. Even when their mistress was in the palace, they had been eagerly hoping for her return, all for the sake of today.

Shen Yunxi knew that Zhizhi was very happy, but she still didn't expect Cai'er to behave like this. In her previous life, she was just too mature and sensible.

It seems that it was her lack of understanding as a young lady, her mind filled with romantic love, that forced the maid to become more sensible.

Well, since Cai'er is still in this mood, we should make her happy.

The three of them, master and servant, headed towards Shen Leyi's courtyard and arrived shortly afterward.

Upon entering the courtyard, one could see more than a dozen maids guarding the place, which showed the old Marquis's firm resolve. He was determined to marry Shen Leyi to He Zheng, after all, he also had his pride. Now that Shen Leyi had caused such a scene, it would be difficult to salvage the situation if she didn't marry He Zheng.

Shen Yunxi had long known that her grandfather was intelligent, so she was not surprised by his actions, especially since he was also a selfish person.

The dozen or so maids guarding Shen Leyi only prevented her from leaving the courtyard, but did not stop others from going in to see her, especially the Sixth Miss.

Everyone in the manor understood that even though the Sixth Miss was not favored by the old Marquis and Madam Shen, she was still the legitimate daughter of the Yong'an Marquis's manor and was deeply loved by the Empress Dowager. Naturally, she was enjoying immense prestige. No matter what, they had to give her face and couldn't really keep her out.

Therefore, Shen Yunxi walked unimpeded to Shen Leyi's house.

"Fourth Sister, I've returned from the palace today to see you," Shen Yunxi said with a smile, making sure Shen Leyi could hear her.

Inside the house, Shen Leyi was still throwing a tantrum, but unfortunately, she had already smashed everything she could, so all she could do was mutter curses.

Unexpectedly, Shen Yunxi's voice suddenly came from outside the door, which almost made Shen Leyi jump up.

Without any hesitation, Shen Leyi opened the door and glared at Shen Yunxi.

"Shen Yunxi, you actually dare to come here? You've got some nerve! After hurting me like this, you still dare to come to my place? Do you really think I wouldn't dare to lay a hand on you?" Shen Leyi glared at Shen Yunxi with fury and said coldly, "Do you think I don't know why you came here? You just want to see me make a fool of myself. Do you really think I don't know anything?"

Shen Yunxi smiled slightly, then put on a pitiful look, "Why do you say that to me, Fourth Sister? I only found out about the day Young Master He from the manor came to propose marriage, and I understand that you are unwilling, so I came to see you and give you some advice. I didn't expect that you thought of me like that. But you really misunderstood, Fourth Sister. I didn't mean to come and make fun of you."

I wonder if Shen Leyi will find her current tone of voice familiar?

Tsk tsk tsk, isn't that exactly what her good fourth sister taught her?
