Chapter 136
Madam Yun was about to retire for the night when she saw Yun Changliang arrive, and she was immediately overjoyed.
The couple had been married for many years, but their relationship had always been lukewarm, especially after Aunt Zhao came into the picture, which led to them growing distant.
Aunt Zhao possessed a captivating charm that made Yun Changliang's heart completely devoted to her, causing him to neglect his wife, Madam Yun.
Madam Yun assumed that since Yun Changliang had come so late, the couple must be going to have a tender time together, so she couldn't help but feel a little shy and became awkward.
Unexpectedly, Yun Changliang did come, but he came with something on his mind.
He sat down in the room without even glancing at Madam Yun, and said, "Just now, I had a drink with my son-in-law."
Madam Yun was still immersed in the tenderness of the moment and didn't react to his words at first: "What?"
Yun Changliang sighed: "Judging from the young master's words, he knows Xi'er's identity and has also fallen in love with her."
So that's what it was about.
A pang of disappointment flashed through Madam Yun's heart: "...When Wanwan came back yesterday, she also mentioned that the young master wanted to take Xi'er as a concubine."
"Taking a concubine?" Yun Changliang sighed again. "If only it were a concubine! During dinner, my son-in-law told me that he wants to take a concubine as a secondary wife!"
"What?!"
Madam Yun's eyes widened immediately.
Yunwan came back yesterday, but she didn't mention anything about the concubine!
"How can that be allowed! The son-in-law has only been married to Wanwan for a short time. If he takes a concubine, wouldn't that be a slap in Wanwan's face!"
Yun Changliang raised an eyebrow and asked, "What does Wanwan think about this matter when she came back yesterday?"
Madam Yun gave a bitter smile; "What else can I say? Wanwan is so angry that she won't listen to anything I say."
After she finished speaking, the room fell silent.
After a while, Yun Changliang asked again, "How's your search for that doctor going? Have you gotten any results?"
Speaking of this, Madam Yun's expression finally relaxed a bit: "My family has found a reason, but the doctor's whereabouts are unpredictable. Although we have a target now, it will probably take some effort to find him."
“That’s quite good,” Yun Changliang said. “You should call Wanwan back another day and have a good talk with her. As the eldest daughter of our Yun family and the mistress of the Marquis’s mansion, it’s not right for her to lack tolerance. Besides, Xi’er is her own sister. The most important thing is for the sisters to work together to keep the young master’s heart firmly in their grasp.”
I'll give it my best.
Madam Yun was also unsure.
Yun Changliang nodded and got up to leave again.
"My lord!" Lady Yun hurriedly called out to him, "It's so late, are you still leaving?"
"Yes, Aunt Qian is still not well and needs someone to stay with her at night." Yun Changliang said, and then walked away.
Watching his retreating figure, Madam Yun gave a bitter smile.
Another sleepless night.
——
The next morning, at Shuiyanglou.
It was still dark, but Shen Rang was already getting up.
Although his movements were gentle, they still startled the woman in his arms.
Yunxi groggily opened her eyes, glanced at the sky outside, and couldn't help but pout: "So early, is the young master leaving already?"
Shen Rang gave a soft "Mmm": "You stay home and wait for me. If you go out, you must make sure Le'an comes with you."
Yunxi's identity hasn't been revealed yet, and he's worried that Yunwan might target her again.
"I know..."
