Chapter 15: Beautiful Daughter vs. Heirless Emperor 15
The smile on Aunt Zhang's face froze, and she wished she could tear Nanny Yan's mouth off on the spot!
No one in the mansion dared to say such things. The disobedient servants had long been sold out by her, and only those who remained were sensible ones.
The maids and servants behind him were silent as a mouse, not daring to say a word.
But the people watching the fun were not afraid of Aunt Zhang. Even though they deliberately lowered their voices, Aunt Zhang still heard their mocking laughter.
She was so angry that she was half dead. If the master hadn't kept dragging his feet and not helping her, she wouldn't have been half a head shorter than others when she walked out.
"Mammy, you don't know that I am the housekeeper of the mansion now. The old lady is in poor health, so I am in charge of all the trivial matters. My master has always loved and respected me, and he is relieved to leave the mansion to me."
Nanny Yan frowned tightly and said impatiently: "You are just a concubine, are you qualified to welcome my master?"
"I don't think you come from a respectable family. You are a lowly concubine, but you are in charge of the household affairs and even dare to pretend to be the mistress of the house. You are neither legitimate nor illegitimate. There is no rules or regulations at all. It's simply outrageous!"
"If I had known that the Ji family was in such a mess, my master should not have come! Forget it, luckily they haven't entered the house yet, we will go back now."
Aunt Zhang was both ashamed and angry. She felt as if she had been cut open and judged under the gaze of everyone.
If she hadn't been concerned about the power of the Dingyuan Marquis' Mansion, she would have slapped Nanny Yan hard!
He's just a servant, yet he dares to humiliate her like this!
At Nanny Yan's command, the carriage was ready to turn around.
Ji Yonglian was anxious. If the Marquis's wife came to the Ji Mansion today and didn't come in, the marriage would be over!
It was all my mother’s fault for not knowing the rules and insisting on coming out to greet the Marquis’ wife herself. Not only did this annoy the Marquis’s family, it also delayed her marriage.
Ji Yonglian was so angry that she pushed Aunt Zhang and whispered, "Mom! Speak quickly, think of a way, we can't let them leave like this!"
Aunt Zhang stopped in front of the carriage. She was filled with hatred in her heart, but she looked embarrassed.
"I am indeed not the mistress of the house. I will go and ask the old lady to come, but she is not in good health. If something happens, how can I explain it to the master?"
Nanny Yan snorted coldly, "People should recognize their own status! My master is not an unreasonable person. The old lady is old, and it is not good to disturb her good family."
"You are a concubine, you are not worthy to stand here. Seeing that you are so sincere, why don't you kneel down and welcome my master into the house!"
Aunt Zhang clenched her fists, her nails digging into her flesh, and she was shaking with anger.
Ever since she killed that bitch Xu Junwan, her life has been getting better and better, and she has never suffered such humiliation!
She couldn't swallow being asked to kneel down in front of everyone!
Inside the carriage.
Ji Yunhuan half-leaned on the couch, looking coldly at everything outside through the curtain that had been lifted.
Tao Hong was so excited that her face turned red. "Madame Yan is so powerful! She made Auntie Zhang kneel down with just a few words, and yet no one can find fault with her."
Ji Yunhuan smiled faintly, "Those who come out of the palace are naturally powerful."
Fortunately, Nanny Yan was helping her wholeheartedly, otherwise she would not dare to keep such a person around her.
"I will definitely learn well from Nanny Yan in the future. Miss, please don't look down on me." Taohong took Ji Yunhuan's arm pitifully, with a flattering look on her face.
Ji Yunhuan laughed out loud, and she pinched Taohong's face, "You silly girl, you only know how to make me happy."
"Miss, do you think Aunt Zhang will kneel? In the past, in the mansion, only Miss was punished to kneel. She and the second Miss have never kneeled."
"They went to great lengths to snatch the marriage my mother had arranged for me. Now that it's only the last step left, how can they bear to give it up?"
As soon as Ji Yunhuan finished speaking, Aunt Zhang outside knelt down.
Aunt Zhang and Ji Yonglian knelt beside the carriage. The maids and servants behind them naturally did not dare to stand, and they all knelt down.
Nanny Yan lifted the curtain and carefully helped Ji Yunhuan out.
In her heart, Ji Yunhuan was the concubine favored by the empress dowager, and she was also pregnant with the prince's heir, so her status was extremely noble.
Not to mention asking a concubine to kneel to greet him, even if Master Ji came, she should kneel.
Taohong also restrained her expression and stood upright behind Ji Yunhuan.
Everyone's eyes were focused on Ji Yunhuan. She was so beautiful that she was unforgettable.
"The Marquis's wife is so young? The age doesn't match."
"What Madam Hou? This is obviously the legitimate daughter of the Ji family. The one behind her is Xiao Taohong. She was rescued by Ji Yunhuan when it snowed heavily that year. She was a kind-hearted child when she was young!"
"Oh my goodness, such a beautiful girl, the prince of the Marquisate must have been blinded by greed, not wanting to marry such a beautiful girl, but insisting on marrying a concubine's daughter!"
"Please shut up, if this gets out, it will bring disaster to our family!"
"Look at her figure and temperament. How can a man of such wealth and status be jealous of a concubine's daughter?"
"I've lived for so many years, and this is the first time I've seen someone this beautiful. A fairy from heaven would look no more beautiful than this."
Ji Yonglian heard the discussions around her and couldn't help but look up. This look made her freeze in place.
How could it be Ji Yunhuan? Wasn't she suffering in a nunnery? How could she be dressed so beautifully and show up at the gate of Ji's house with so many servants?
Aunt Zhang's heart was pounding and she sat down on the ground in fear.
Although he had the same appearance, his temperament had completely changed. His eyebrows and eyes were sharp and intimidating, revealing a bone-chilling chill.
Aunt Zhang screamed, pointed at Ji Yunhuan and yelled, "No! You are not Ji Yunhuan! Ji Yunhuan is dead! Dead! Are you a human or a ghost?"
Ji Yunhuan had a dignified smile on her face. This stunning face seemed to overlap with the dead Xu Junwan, causing Aunt Zhang to break out in a cold sweat.
"Aunt, why don't you take a closer look to see if I'm dead or not? Or has Aunt been expecting me to die for a long time?"
Now that Shuiyue Temple is under the control of Ji Yunhuan, it is too easy to spread some false news.
Aunt Zhang thought that Nanny Li had succeeded and ran away with the money she gave her.
She thought she could rest easy, but she didn't expect Ji Yunhuan to be alive and well, and come here to act like a ghost to go against her!
Aunt Zhang stood up with the help of her maid and quickly regained her composure.
"What are you talking about, Miss? Why would I want you to die? You made a mistake and were punished by the master to go to a nunnery. What does it have to do with me?"
"If Miss still has any sense of propriety, she shouldn't have come back today. With so many people watching, it's only shame for the Ji family!"
Ji Yonglian stared at Ji Yunhuan fiercely and said angrily, "How can she still have any dignity! Daddy has already expelled her from the Ji family. A slut like her who can sleep with anyone should die in a nunnery, lest she drag down the reputation of our family."
With a crisp "pa" sound, Ji Yunhuan slapped Ji Yonglian hard.
She had wanted to slap Ji Yonglian in the face for a long time. She had wanted to do this when Ji Yonglian snatched away her mother's belongings, when Ji Yonglian framed her, and when Ji Yonglian instigated the prince of the Marquis's Mansion to cancel the engagement.
