Seeing that Granny Ma was obedient, Madam Xu was very satisfied. She turned to her son and daughter-in-law and instructed them, "Feng'er, Feng'er's wife, I reckon Yunzhi will be back soon. Go and wait for her at the gate of the mansion. When you see her, don't let her into the mansion. Send her directly to the nunnery outside the city."
"Yes, Mother!" the two replied respectfully, then left Madam Xu's courtyard and headed towards the main gate.
At this moment, Yunzhi was still on the road. Because of the large dowry, more than a dozen carriages were traveling together, forming a spectacular line of carriages.
Soon people started asking around, wanting to know whose convoy was so extravagant, packed to the brim.
Yunzhi didn't intend to hide it; after all, people would find out about her divorce sooner or later. Besides, it wasn't her who was being unreasonable, so she wasn't going to keep it a secret.
As for whether it would affect her future marriage prospects, that was simply not a consideration for her. Because she had absolutely no intention of remarrying.
They say a first marriage is a matter of obedience to one's father, a second marriage is a matter of personal choice. Before, she had no choice but to marry An Xiuyuan even though she didn't like him. But now that she's divorced, her father can't control her anymore. Whether she remarries or not is up to her.
Thanks to Yunzhi's publicity, it didn't take long for the entire capital to know that Marquis Dingyuan had divorced his wife of just over a month for the sake of a mistress.
Even after receiving this exciting news, everyone's gossip was not quelled. In particular, seeing the carriage carrying so many things on the street, everyone wanted to know where Yunzhi was taking them.
So, in no time at all, a long line of onlookers followed the carriage.
Seeing so many people following behind, Rulan said to Yunzhi with some concern, "Miss, isn't it inappropriate for so many people to be following the carriage? Shall I go and chase them away?"
"No need, these people can go with me and serve as my witnesses."
"Miss?" Rulan was puzzled, wondering what kind of witnesses these people could provide.
Seeing that she didn't understand, Yunzhi glanced at Rumei beside her and asked, "Rumei, tell her."
"Yes, Miss!" Rumei nodded, then said to Rulan, "Sister Lan, haven't you noticed that Granny Ma hasn't returned yet?"
"I know she hasn't come back, what's wrong?"
"What do you mean?" Rumei said to Rulan in an annoyed tone, "My dear sister, don't you even think about how Madam usually treats Miss? Not to mention that Miss didn't discuss the divorce with Madam, just considering Madam's dislike for Miss, do you think we can even enter the gates of the Yun residence today?"
After Rumei's reminder, Rulan quickly understood and said, "Grandma Ma hasn't returned. Has she been detained by Madam?"
"Most likely. It's probably because Madam doesn't want Miss to return to the manor, but she also doesn't want her to turn back halfway. Maybe she even has her eye on Miss's dowry and wants to take it back for Second Miss to use. That's why she doesn't want Granny Ma to come back, for fear that she will reveal the news."
"In that case, shall we go back?"
"Go back, otherwise how will you cut ties with them?"
After hearing Rumei's explanation, Rulan didn't ask any further questions. In short, Miss's decision was correct. If she could truly break free from that large family and sever ties with the Yun family, it would actually be a good thing for Miss.
Soon, the carriage stopped at the gate of the Yun residence. Yun Zhi looked at the tightly closed gate and Yun Feng and Lin Meijiao standing at the entrance, a mocking expression on her face.
The elder brother and sister-in-law blocking the door, how interesting!
