Chapter 127 The Ominous Bun-shaped Concubine's Daughter (5)



The lady was so angry when she saw Su Man's arrogant look that her teeth were itching.

Although she didn't know what happened, she was sure that Su Man must have been behind it.

Haha, you actually have the courage to resist.

Before leaving, the lady looked back at Su Man with a vicious look in her eyes.

Su Man didn't dodge, but looked straight at her and slowly smiled.

The horn sounded, officially declaring war.

After this incident, not only did Master Yun have someone redecorate the furnishings for Su Man's house, he also personally selected a group of new people for her courtyard. Mingyue Pavilion could finally be lived in normally.

But Taoyuan did not participate in the fight after all, so he was left behind.

Time flies and it's already fifteen.

Before Su Man went, the eldest lady told Master Yun that her two daughters were grown up and she wanted to take them to seek marriage. Master Yun naturally would not pay attention to such a trivial matter and agreed.

The weather at the end of June has begun to show signs of summer heat.

The scent of perfume on the women's bodies became even sweeter when exposed to the sun, and the fragrance wafted through the air as they walked.

In the carriage, the lady and Yun Xuelan sat together, while Su Man sat alone on the side.

Yun Xuelan had been staring at Su Man since she boarded the carriage. Su Man was wearing a lotus pink dress today, with few hairpins and ornaments on her head, light makeup, and a simple dress. But a begonia blossom on her temples made her look even more lively.

On the other hand, Yun Xuelan dressed up beautifully today in order to win Yin Hong's heart in one fell swoop. However, the weather was too hot today and the red silk dress she wore was too complicated. Most of her makeup was smudged and her pretty face looked greasy.

As Yun Xuelan wiped her sweat, she looked at the refreshing and pleasant Su Man and became increasingly angry. She said sarcastically, "Big sister is dressed up really beautifully today. I wonder who she is trying to pick up?"

Su Man raised her eyes, a cold light flashed in them. She glanced at the lady who was pretending to be deaf and said, "You and I are both unmarried girls. How can you say such things without any hesitation?"

Yun Xuelan's beauty stood up straight, "Are you lecturing me? You're just a wild girl from the countryside, you can't listen to or say anything, why are you pretending?"

Su Man was surprised. "Sister, how can you say that? You and I are both daughters of the Yun family. If you say I'm a wild girl, isn't that just saying Dad is a country bumpkin? If Dad hears this, he will definitely punish you. Stop it now."

Yun Xuelan was used to Yun Man's submissiveness, so seeing her talking back, she started to curse, "How dare you, a lowly concubine's daughter, talk back to me! I'm going to peel off your foxy face today, I..."

"alright."

The lady finally spoke, her tone pointed, "You are a noble person, why do you have to answer everyone who speaks to you? If a cat or dog on the street barks at you, do you have to curse back at them one by one?"

Yun Xuelan immediately became proud, "My mother taught me that those cats and dogs are not worthy of me talking to them."

The carriage swung and we arrived at the temple.

Today is the fifteenth day of the lunar month, and many people come to burn incense. The maids and servants at the back came down early to pick up the young ladies from the car.

Su Man came down holding Xiaochun's hand. Today, not only Xiaochun, but also Taoyuan came, following her closely, as if they were afraid that she would run away.

After all, they only knew that Su Man was going to meet Yin Hong today, but they didn't know where they had agreed to meet. The temple was built on a mountain with a vast terrain. If they didn't know the location, they would probably be lost all day.

Su Man pretended not to know and held Xiaochun's hand as she walked up the stairs step by step.

Arriving at the temple, Su Man knelt calmly on the mat with her hands clasped together, motionless like an old monk in meditation.

Yun Xuelan and the eldest lady on the side kept exchanging glances, as if to say, since you are here, why don’t you go and have a private meeting with the prince? Why are you pretending here!

By the time Su Man finished her greetings and stood up, it was already a cup of tea. Yun Xuelan couldn't wait to stand up as well, "Let's go."

Su Man looked guilty and said, "Sister, I'm going to change clothes and will be back soon."

Yun Xuelan cursed her inwardly for being so pretentious, but fearing she would alert the enemy, she had no choice but to go along with it. "My mother and I are going to have a vegetarian meal later. You can go directly to the meditation room to meet us."

"yes."

As soon as Su Man walked out of the palace gate, the eldest lady immediately winked at several maids and asked them to follow her from a distance.

When they went up the mountain just now, they did not see Prince Yin's carriage, so they had to follow Su Man quietly. When she arrived at the place, they asked a few maids to capture her, and then asked Yun Xuelan to replace the prince with a cat.

Su Man held Tao Yuan and Xiao Chun's hands as they walked ahead, circling the back hills. At first, the maids were able to keep up, but when they entered a rockery, they suddenly disappeared.

Several maids searched for it but couldn't find it. They were so anxious, "What's going on?"

"I don't know. The lady specifically told me not to lose him."

"Go back and report to the Madam."

...

"What? Lost him? How could he be lost with so many people?" The lady became furious after hearing this.

The leading woman stammered, "We were following them just fine, but when we turned around, the eldest lady, Taoyuan, and Xiaochun were all gone."

The lady frowned, "You mean, Taoyuan is gone too?"

"Yes." The old woman, fearing she would be blamed, deliberately exaggerated and said, "We agreed before that Miss Taoyuan would leave a mark for us, but the mark Miss Taoyuan left was always difficult to identify. We were afraid that the eldest lady would find out, so we didn't dare to follow too closely. As a result, we lost her."

"This traitorous dog slave must have been bribed by Yun Man!" Yun Xuelan instantly got furious.

But the lady didn't believe it, "Taoyuan has been with me for all these years, she can't possibly betray me."

Seeing that Yin Hong was hopeless, Yun Xuelan became even more furious. "Last time, so many maids and servants were driven out of Mingyue Pavilion, but only Taoyuan was left. She must be playing both sides!"
