Chapter 89
Shen Rang knew that Zheng's words were not meant to comfort him, but were the truth.
Right now, we really can't touch Yun Wan.
Shen Rang had no choice but to suppress the unspeakable bitterness in his heart and said, "Yes, I understand."
Madam Zheng sighed: "It's best if you've thought it through."
“It’s getting late, I won’t disturb Mother’s rest any longer,” Shen Rang stood up, cupped his hands in farewell, and said, “Farewell.”
Shen Rang strode away, but Zheng still had a furrowed brow.
Madam Zhou also looked shaken: "Madam, the young master has always been calm and composed. How could he say such a thing?"
Madam Zheng pressed her temples: "It's because the Yun family's daughter is so inconsiderate, keeping such a close eye on Zirong. How could Zirong not be angry?"
Now, all Zhou Mama could do was sigh: "Once the young master has made up his mind, it's very difficult to change it. Now that he's already had this idea, I'm worried..."
“No,” Zheng said. “Zirong knows the stakes. She won’t act rashly.”
After a moment of silence, Madam Zheng said, "Tomorrow, a little later, please invite the young mistress to come to my place."
Ultimately, she couldn't bear to see her son suffer because he knew the consequences.
So she needs to give Yun Wan a talking-to.
As a woman, it's really inappropriate for her to extend her reach so far.
Zhou Mama said yes and then helped Zheng Shi to rest.
——
The next morning, Zhou's mother went to Liuyun Garden in person.
Yun Wan didn't want to see her at all.
Everyone outside says that her mother-in-law is a very kind person, but Yunwan always feels scared when she sees her.
But right now, Zheng is her mother-in-law, and no matter how afraid she is, she has no choice but to go.
As expected, he gave her another round of subtle but sharp reprimands, telling her to be mindful of her boundaries and not to cling to Chen Rang so tightly.
In front of Madam Zheng, Yun Wan dared not lash out, but as soon as she returned to Liuyun Garden, she couldn't hold back any longer: "What do you mean by telling me to stay away from the Crown Prince? We are now the closest and dearest couple in the world! Why should I stay away from him?"
"Oh, my mother-in-law, outsiders all say she's kind, but I don't think so!"
"Isn't it just because the old Marquis has a multitude of concubines that she can't stand me living such a good life? She actually called me over and gave me a lecture, doesn't she feel ashamed!"
Pearl, listening nearby, was terrified: "Young Madam, please keep your voice down! It would be terrible if someone heard us!"
Infertility and disrespect for her mother-in-law—Yun Wan is recklessly testing the limits of the seven grounds for divorce!
"How could I have been overheard in my own courtyard?" Yun Wan said irritably. "Go and call Yun Xi over here!"
If she doesn't vent her anger, she probably won't feel at ease all day!
Pearl had no choice but to turn and leave, and soon returned with Yunxi.
Looking at Yun Xi, who was dressed as a maid and stood there with her head bowed, Yun Wan's lips curled into an extremely cold smile.
It's a shame she actually thought Yunxi was innocent and harmless before.
Fortunately, it's not too late to discover it now.
Yun Wan casually picked up her teacup: "Sister, you went home and listened to Mother's teachings. Now you know what to do from now on, right?"
Yunxi lowered her head: "Yes."
She knows all too well.
Yun Wan sneered, "I may not listen to you, but your mother carried your sister for ten months before giving birth to her, so you'd better keep her words in mind. Otherwise, I won't stand by and watch, and I'll definitely discipline your sister for your mother's sake!"
Yun Wan got up and walked to Yun Xi's side, raising her hand to pinch her chin.
She applied tremendous force, causing Yunxi to wince in pain, but she still managed to keep quiet.
Yunxi neither fought back nor argued back, which immediately dampened Yunwan's enthusiasm. She waved her hand and sent her away.
Yunxi turned around and saw that Shen Rang had actually returned.
That's strange.
Before she could even ponder why Chen Rang had returned, she saw Pearl's foot peeking out.
A cold glint flashed in Yunxi's eyes, and she stomped on it.
Although Yunxi was a woman, she was not weak and helpless. She used all her strength in that kick, and a pig-like scream suddenly erupted in the room.
Yunxi seemed to realize her mistake only then, and in a panic, she took several steps back, accidentally knocking over the flower stand.
The vase on the flower stand wobbled twice before suddenly falling to the ground.
In an instant, the hall was in complete chaos.
On one side was the still howling pearl, and on the other side were shattered porcelain shards scattered all over the ground. Yunxi looked around, then silently lowered her head and knelt down.
Shen Rang and Jing Yuan had already gotten close, so they naturally saw Yun Xi's rash actions.
Shen Rang showed no unusual expression, but Jing Yuan's helplessness was almost overflowing.
Why provoke her?
The young mistress has probably forgotten that this ancestor smashed several sets of teacups in one go earlier.
Jing Yuan sympathized with Yun Xi's plight and was even more impressed by her destructive power.
After all, not everyone has the ability to cause such a huge disaster out of such a cowardly attitude.
