Chapter 301
Through the veil, outsiders could not tell that she was uncomfortable.
Soon, a commotion came from outside, and Jixiang said, "Miss Yao must have finished getting ready. Madam, let's go out."
Yunxi was wearing a veil, which made her vision less clear than usual, so she needed Jixiang to support her to feel safe.
Yao Susu was indeed outside.
Yunxi lifted the veil and looked her up and down, her eyes filled with a smile: "Clothes really do make the man. Dressed like this, you'll surely be captivating everyone you go out in!"
Yao Susu was naturally pretty, and this pink dress didn't look vulgar at all on her. On the contrary, it suited her temperament perfectly. With a light red makeup on her face, she was even more eye-catching.
"Don't make fun of me!" Yao Susu's cheeks flushed slightly. "Let's go, let's hurry and find Auntie!"
After saying that, Yao Susu lowered her head and rushed forward. Yun Xi laughed twice before following her.
Madam Zheng had also made all the preparations. She was dressed in a magnificent blue robe, the color of which was neither too bright to be eye-catching nor too dull. It was embroidered with auspicious floral patterns and paired with a jade back cloud. Her attire was dignified and noble, and she exuded the air of a Marquis's wife.
Seeing the two enter, and noticing that Yunxi was dressed simply and did not seem to overshadow the hostess, Madam Zheng nodded subtly: "Alright, let's go."
The three of them left the Marquis's residence together and took the Marquis's carriage to attend the banquet.
Meanwhile, Yun Wan also received the news.
"Three people?" Yun Wan raised an eyebrow. "Did Madam Yao go along too?"
It's not that she said anything, but if Luo Shi went with them, Yao Susu's marriage would most likely fall through.
That woman, to put it bluntly, was a shrew.
Pearl shook her head: "There's another one... it's my concubine, I saw Jixiang."
"That bitch?!" Yun Wan's eyes widened. "How could she...?"
The banquets Yao Susu attended were all very formal occasions! Zheng Shi didn't even bring her, but brought that wretched woman instead! What kind of logic is that?!
Seeing Yun Wan's anger, Pearl quickly said, "Young Madam, please don't be angry. I saw it clearly. The concubine was wearing a long veiled hat. She didn't go there openly."
"She still went!" Yun Wan retorted. "What right did a concubine have to set foot in such a place? Did she drug my mother-in-law too?"
What's wrong with the people in this Marquis's mansion? Shen Rang is like this, and now Zheng Shi is too. Yun Wan really wants to ask, where did Yun Xi buy that bewitching drug?!
“My mother-in-law is so biased, she even favors one of her concubines! Look around in this entire city of Luoyang, is there anyone who does what my mother-in-law does?!”
Pearl lowered her head, not daring to reply.
Just then, a voice suddenly rang out from outside: "Oh dear, why is our young mistress throwing such a tantrum? Who provoked her?"
Upon hearing this voice, Yun Wan frowned.
Why does that voice sound so familiar?
The next moment, Aunt Chen swayed in.
The maidservant who looked after the courtyard followed cautiously behind, saying, "When the concubine arrives, she should come in. This servant couldn't stop her..."
Aunt Chen had already sat down by herself: "Young Madam, don't be angry. In this Marquis's mansion, there is no place I can't go if I want to. Of course, such a little maid can't stop me."
Yun Wan laughed in exasperation: "So I have to praise my aunt?"
"You flatter me," Aunt Chen said with a smile. "I had heard some bad news and wanted to come and warn the young mistress, but I didn't expect that she already knew. It seems I'm too late!"
Yun Wan's gaze darkened.
This Aunt Chen actually came because of the matter of Madam Zheng taking Yunxi and Yao Susu to find a husband.
