Chapter 43
The mother and her two daughters went back inside and sat down. Madam Yun's gaze then fell on Yun Xi.
To be precise, it landed on her stomach.
Seeing this, Yun Wan quickly said, "Mother, don't worry, I've asked someone to get a prescription from Yiyuantang. My sister will be able to get pregnant soon!"
Upon hearing that she had obtained the prescription from Yiyuantang, Madam Yun gave her a deep look: "Wan'er, you are so thoughtful."
Before she came, she was worried that Yun Wan would treat Yun Xi badly, but now it seems that she had worried too much.
"Mother, what are you saying?" Yun Wan smiled, pursing her lips. "Xi'er is my sister. How could I, as her older sister, possibly harm her?"
As she spoke, Yun Wan turned her head to look at Yun Xi, her eyes holding a strangely meaningful gaze.
Even if it's a critical issue, it should be after Yunxi gives birth!
When the time comes, a simple excuse of a difficult childbirth will be enough to cover it up, and no one will be able to find out anything. So it's okay to let her have a few good days now.
Madam Yun nodded: "Xi'er, I'm relieved to see that you're doing well. I'll talk to your sister for a while, you can go back now."
Yunxi was eager to leave, so as soon as Madam Yun finished speaking, she turned and left.
Seeing her turn and leave without a second thought, Madam Yun sighed deeply.
That child is truly heartless, leaving so decisively without even a soft word of wanting to stay.
She was her mother, after all. How could she just leave like that?
“After all, my sister has been away from home for more than ten years, so it’s normal that she’s not close to us,” Yunwan said with a smile. “People always say that the kindness of raising someone is greater than the kindness of giving birth to them. Maybe my sister still misses her family in the countryside.”
Madam Yun's eyes darkened slightly.
Taking in Madam Yun's reaction, Yun Wan chuckled inwardly and poured her a cup of tea, handing it to her herself: "Look at me, why am I saying all this for no reason? Mother came here this time because there's something going on at home?"
Madam Yun suddenly came to her senses and nodded, saying, "Isn't the imperial examination just around the corner? I'm planning to go to the Taoist temple outside the city to pay respects to the Wenchang Emperor on behalf of your brother. It's hot and humid right now, so it's a good time to go to the mountains to cool off for a couple of days. Would you like to come along?"
Actually, she wanted to bring Yun Wan and Yun Xi with her this time.
But Yunxi's behavior just now really chilled her heart.
As Yun Wan listened to Madam Yun's words, a deep meaning flashed in her eyes: "Mother really cares about my younger brother."
Yun Hai, the son of the Yun family, was not actually born to Madam Yun, but rather to Aunt Zhao.
Madam Yun sighed, "What else can we do? I'm already this old. Fortunately, that child has grown up under my care since he was a child and has little contact with his biological mother. Just like you said before, the kindness of raising someone is greater than the kindness of giving birth, and Hai'er understands that."
“Mother is right.” Yun Wan nodded slightly. “Then when shall we set off?”
"It's past noon."
Although Qingshan Temple is outside the city, it only takes two hours to get there, and they arrived just in time for their meal.
Yun Wan nodded: "Then I'll pack my things first."
"good."
Madam Yun is also packing her things; she needs to go back and keep an eye on things herself.
Yun Wan saw Madam Yun out the door and then went to Rongxi Hall.
Zheng had just finished reciting the scriptures when she heard Yunwan say that she was going out, so she nodded and said, "Since you have already made an appointment with your mother, then go ahead."
"yes."
Yun Wan got up and left. Watching Yun Wan's retreating figure, Zhou's mother smiled and said, "Look how sensible the young mistress is, she even knows to come and tell you in advance."
Zheng's eyes were indifferent: "Acting first and informing later is just a show for others to see."
Mrs. Zhou was taken aback and immediately stopped smiling.
Meanwhile, Yun Wan had already returned to Liuyun Garden with Pearl and started having people pack their things.
