Chapter 31
Pearl turned back and reported to Yunwan: "Don't worry, young mistress, the second young lady has already gone there."
Yun Wan nodded and said, "Anyway, she wears maid's clothes when she's out, so she has to do some of the things a maid should do. That'll make it seem more realistic!"
“What the young mistress says is true.”
"I'd better think carefully about what kind of work to assign my dear sister tomorrow..."
Pearl remembered Yunxi's injury last time and was about to say a few words of advice, but before she could speak, Shen Rang came over.
He wore a brocade robe, the peacock blue color, gorgeous yet understated, suited him perfectly. He walked with steady, square steps, and his noble air was almost too much for people to bear.
"Husband?" Yun Wan was delighted and got up to greet him. "Why are you here now? Didn't you go to the Hanlin Academy?"
"Today is a day off," Shen Rang said.
He didn't want to come, but Jingyuan kept nagging in his ear like a fly that he couldn't get rid of.
Thinking that it was still early, he decided to stay for half a day, have lunch, and then leave.
Yun Wan was overjoyed: "That's wonderful! My mother sent some tea over yesterday. Pearl, go and fetch it quickly. My husband must have a good taste."
Pearl quickly turned around and walked out.
Shen Rang had the words of refusal on the tip of his tongue, but he couldn't bring himself to say them.
That's enough.
As soon as Shen Rang sat down, Yun Wan spoke up: "Husband, you rarely have a day off today. Are you going to the study tonight?"
Shen Rang nodded.
Upon seeing this, Yun Wan's joy immediately dissipated.
"Husband, although your mother-in-law doesn't say it, she must really want a grandson. Shouldn't we have a baby soon?"
Upon hearing this, Shen Rang lifted his eyelids and glanced at her.
The person in the bed wasn't her, so how could she have given birth to a child?
"Did you truly want to marry me, Madam?"
Yun Wan was taken aback: "Of course I'm willing, why does my husband ask such a question?"
With Shen Rang's family background and abilities as they are, Yun Wan was so happy when she learned that he would be her husband that she couldn't sleep for several days. How could she not want to?
Shen Rang glanced at Yun Wan again.
If you are willing, then why find someone else to do it for you?
But that's not important now. Even if Yun Wan were willing, he wouldn't be.
"Just a casual question," Shen Rang said.
No sooner had he finished speaking than a series of crackling sounds suddenly rang out, making a great commotion that Shen Rang and Yun Wan could hear clearly in the main room.
Yun Wan was taken aback for a moment, then realized what was happening.
Her teacup!
Yunwan quickly got up and ran to the tea room.
When she arrived, she saw broken porcelain shards scattered all over the tea room. Judging from the patterns on them, they were the very same sets she had set out for tea tasting yesterday!
In addition, the tea delivered yesterday was also spilled; the exquisite tea canister was shattered into pieces, and tea leaves were scattered all over the floor!
Yunxi stood pitifully to the side.
Yun Wan's vision went black: "These teacups are all one-of-a-kind! The tea leaves were just delivered, worth a hundred gold coins! And you actually destroyed them all?!"
Yunxi immediately looked panicked: "Young Madam, please forgive me, I didn't know these were all valuable items. I was just thinking of putting them all together for easier organization. I didn't expect Miss Pearl to come in so suddenly. I was startled, and my hand slipped..."
Pearl's eyes widened suddenly.
So it's her fault?!
Feeling Yun Wan's murderous gaze fall on her, Pearl quickly said, "Young Madam, please understand, I didn't encounter her when I came over!"
Yunxi muttered softly, "You didn't bump into me, but you suddenly came over, and I'm a bit of a scaredy-cat..."
Pearl gritted her teeth.
So Yunxi was determined to drag her into this too!
Yun Wan understood this principle perfectly well.
She underestimated Yun Xi; she hadn't expected this person to be so resourceful!
