Chapter 431
Yunxi nodded.
Soon, Shu Ningshuang's maidservant summoned a doctor. After the doctor administered several acupuncture needles, Shu Ningshuang slowly regained consciousness.
She stared blankly with her eyes open, it was hard to tell if she was awake or not.
She truly didn't know how her life had come to this.
Shu Ningshuang closed her eyes briefly, and when she opened them again, a resolute glint flashed in them: "Miss Yun, I can't swallow this insult, nor do I intend to. I know you harbor resentment towards Yun Wan, so how about we join forces?"
Seeing that Yun Xi remained silent, Shu Ning Shuang continued, "I am the daughter of the Vice Minister of the Chancellery. Although the Vice Minister of the Chancellery and the Minister of Revenue are both of the third rank, the Yun family's official career has basically reached its limit, while my father was able to take another step forward and become the Prime Minister. Therefore, in terms of status, I am more valuable than Yun Wan."
Yunxi raised an eyebrow.
She really didn't know that.
Even if she knew, she didn't dare to nod easily.
The person in front of me is of higher status than Yun Wan, yet she was still outmaneuvered to this extent.
So, identity is secondary; what matters is intelligence.
Clearly, the person in front of me isn't quite right in the head.
Seeing the contemplation in Yunxi's eyes, Shu Ningshuang couldn't hold back her anger any longer: "I've made myself perfectly clear, what are you still hesitating about?"
Yunxi twitched the corner of her mouth: "Miss Shu, Yun Wan is a smart person."
Shu Ningshuang's eyes widened: "Are you saying I'm not smart?!"
Yunxi didn't speak, but just looked her over.
Shu Ningshuang immediately fell silent.
That look was even more hurtful than being verbally abused!
Shu Ningshuang took a deep breath: "Your Marquis's mansion is about to hold a wedding, isn't it?"
Yunxi nodded.
Yao Susu's wedding date is fast approaching.
Shu Ningshuang snorted lightly: "Then you just wait and see."
After saying that, Shu Ningshuang got up and left.
Yunxi watched her figure, then looked at Jixiang: "What are you waiting to see?"
She truly didn't understand.
So what if someone has a higher social status?
Jixiang chuckled: "You'll find out when the time comes, Auntie."
Yunxi was immediately displeased to see that Jixiang was actually helping Shu Ningshuang to create a mystery.
Jixiang, however, was not afraid of her and refused to say anything no matter what.
Le'an was struggling to hold back her laughter.
——
Yunxi returned home that day, but before she could find peace, she was summoned to Rongxi Hall by Zhou's mother.
With Yao Susu's wedding approaching, Zheng wanted her to learn how to handle the arrangements.
This was truly treating her as the head of the household, and Yunxi immediately became extremely attentive.
Yun Wan didn't miss this excellent opportunity to show off.
Yun Xi was completely clueless about organizing a banquet, but Yun Wan was different. Having grown up by Madam Yun's side, she was familiar with the process and details. She took the initiative to do it, leaving Yun Xi with no chance to help.
Seeing this, Yunxi simply stopped forcing it and just watched quietly from the side.
Seeing Yunxi like this, Madam Zheng was satisfied with her.
She was also a woman confined to the inner quarters, so she could naturally see through Yun Wan's intentions. But no matter how well Yun Wan did, it was all in vain, because the reason she didn't let Yun Wan manage the household was never because she was bad at managing it.
In contrast, Yunxi, who is unassuming and doesn't compete for anything, naturally suits her taste better.
