Chapter 251
After leaving Huicao Hall, Yunwan immediately ordered someone to investigate Yunxi's whereabouts from the previous day.
Upon investigation, it was discovered that Yunxi had gone to Rongxi Hall early in the morning, even earlier than Luo Shi, and had stayed there for most of the day.
"That bitch actually dared to set her sights on my mother-in-law!"
What shocked Yunwan even more was that Madam Zheng actually agreed!
When did those two become so close?
However, Pearl felt nothing of the sort: "Young Madam, that Luo family used to bully our Madam quite a bit, so it's not surprising that our Madam doesn't want to have anything to do with them. As for the concubine, she probably just happened to meet Madam's expectations by accident."
"Is that all?" Yun Wan didn't believe it.
"Yes, isn't it said that the madam hates concubines the most?"
Hearing this, Yun Wan finally breathed a sigh of relief.
But before she could even catch her breath, a servant rushed in from outside: "Young Madam, Madam has sent gifts to Jibai Residence again!"
"What?!"
The last time you gave gifts was because you wrongly punished Yunxi, so why are you doing it this time?!
The servant breathed a sigh of relief and said, "The madam said that the gift we sent last time wasn't substantial enough, so we're making up for it this time."
Even a fool could tell that this was an excuse.
Now that things have come to this, Yun Wan is completely certain that Yun Xi was the one who orchestrated this whole thing!
Indeed, if Yunxi hadn't spoken up, who could have persuaded Shen Rang to come?
But the thought that such a good opportunity to make enemies for Yunxi had been lost made Yunwan furious.
Now, we have to act as matchmakers for Yao Susu!
Fortunately, the people she had chosen were not very good. With the Marquis's mansion acting as her representative, the people had to be eager to fawn over her, so she didn't have to put in much effort.
Yun Wan took a deep breath and instructed her servants to do so. Sure enough, they quickly replied, and both sides agreed to meet in two days.
But Yun Wan's carefully planned scheme failed, so how could she swallow her anger?
However, the opportunity soon arrived.
That evening, Pearl strode back from outside, her face beaming with joy: "Young Madam, I've had someone inquire and found out that Scholar Duan and Concubine are childhood sweethearts!"
Upon hearing this news, Yun Wan immediately perked up: "What happened? Tell me in detail."
"This servant had someone bring over Duan Jieyuan's place of origin to check, and found that he came from the same place as the Second Miss. We then had someone dig deeper and found out that Duan Jieyuan lost his father at a young age and was also raised by the Chen couple. He and the Second Miss have a very close relationship!"
Yun Wan's eyes lit up: "Is that so?!"
"yes!"
"No wonder, no wonder the young master disliked Duan Jieyuan so much, it turns out they are childhood sweethearts who have been separated for a long time!" Yun Wan was so excited that she couldn't sit still.
She paced back and forth in the room a few times, when suddenly a thought flashed through her mind: "And last time, the incident where the young master had a falling out with that bitch, it was most likely related to Duan Jieyuan!"
Pearl suddenly realized, "Young mistress is so clever!"
Even if Yunxi still holds a place in Shen Rang's heart, so what? As a man, how can he tolerate his wife having someone else on her mind?
Moreover, the reason Shen Rang was kind to Yun Xi was only because Yun Xi resembled his true love in some ways; it wasn't out of genuine affection!
If that's the case...
Yun Wan couldn't help but laugh out loud.
She called Pearl to her side and whispered a few instructions, which made Yun Wan feel triumphant.
Yunxi's despicable methods were truly beyond her expectations.
She has only been in the manor for a short time, but not only has she won over Shen Rang's heart, she has now also won over Zheng Shi's favor. She does have some real skills.
However, she wanted to see how Yunxi would break through this round!
