Chapter 898: The Prince of the Duke's Mansion vs. the Black Lotus Daughter 40
"You're rebelling! You're really rebelling! You haven't even married yet, so why are you trying to be a prince's consort to your father? I've raised you for ten years, and you turned out to be such an unfilial bastard!"
Ji Changmao was so angry that he was shaking all over. He had long been accustomed to Ji Yunhuan's submissiveness and would not tolerate any resistance from his daughter. He ordered the servants around him to come forward and shouted, "Lock her up in the ancestral hall and let her reflect on her mistakes. Release her when she realizes her mistakes!"
Peng Tengyun waved the long stick in his hand and said coldly: "Let's see who dares?"
The servants were too scared to step forward. Ji Changmao was furious. He pointed at Ji Yunhuan and cursed, "I think you've lost your mind! You haven't married yet. Women should obey their fathers at home. You'd better go to the ancestral hall and kneel down. Do you still want to do something to your biological father?"
"You have already lost your chastity, and now you have a reputation of being disobedient and unfilial. I want to see if the Duke's Mansion will still want you!"
Ji Yunhuan's tears fell, she cried like a pear blossom in the rain, she looked weak and helpless, and Yun Ye was so heartbroken that he was spinning around.
[A father is kind and a son is filial. If the father is not kind, what is the point of being filial as a child? Don't worry about him. I know you are the most gentle and kind, and a very good woman. The Duke's Mansion will not cancel the engagement.]
Ji Yunhuan choked up and said, "It has been like this for the past ten years. No matter if I was wrong or not, no matter if I was wronged or not, as long as I was not satisfied with the slightest thing, my father would beat and scold me. Every floor tile in the ancestral hall is covered with his daughter's blood!"
"Father, you have never treated me as your daughter. You have long forgotten my mother and Yongxing Village! I naturally dare not do anything to you, but I am also a human being, and I also have a heart. If you treat me like this, I don't need to listen to your teachings anymore. Please go back, father."
"You have never loved me even once. When I leave the Ji family, I will no longer be bothered by you and will not make my father angry again. This is my greatest filial piety."
Ji Changmao roared, "What do you mean? Do you still want to sever your relationship with your father? You have my father's blood in you, don't think you can do whatever you want just because you've climbed up the social ladder!"
"Your mother is just a concubine who has never been brought into the family. She is a country woman and is not worthy of me. I let you enter the mansion and enjoy the dignity of a young lady from an official family, but you are still not satisfied! If you dare to talk nonsense, your father will not forgive you!"
Ji Changmao stretched out his hand to hit Ji Yunhuan. This was how he had taught his daughter over the years. After beating her many times, she would naturally become obedient.
Ji Yunhuan was so scared that he kept backing away and almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, Hanchun and Yingxia supported him.
Peng Tengyun grabbed Ji Changmao's hand and with a little force, Ji Changmao let out a scream like a pig being slaughtered.
"If the top beam is crooked, the bottom beam will be crooked. No wonder a little girl like Ji Shiting dares to shout for war and killing. It turns out that you, as a father, are not a good person!"
"Good things come out of bad things. The young lady is a kind person. I promised Nie Caixing that I would send her to the bridal sedan in one piece. Get out of here now! If you make trouble again, I will beat you up too!"
Ji Changmao covered his swollen wrist and said, "This is really insulting. I won't argue with a reckless man like you. Just leave!"
Ji Changmao led his men away in disgrace. To put it bluntly, he was a coward who bullied the weak and feared the strong. Since Ji Yunhuan had experts protecting him, he did not dare to take action again.
Xu glared at Ji Yunhuan viciously with a look of hatred, as if she wished she could skin Ji Yunhuan alive!
Ji Shiting screamed in pain and wanted to faint but couldn't. Peng Tengyun held back his strength as it would not be good to really knock her unconscious, so Ji Shiting could only endure it.
"Mom! Kill her! Kill this bitch! Why did Daddy leave? Why didn't Daddy avenge me! Mom, it hurts so much!"
Mrs. Xu was so distressed that she burst into tears. She ordered people to carry Ji Shiting and put her on the sedan chair. "Why are you lying on the ground? Go get a doctor! If the second young lady is in trouble, none of the people who came here today will survive!"
"She has the support of the Duke's Mansion. She beat up her younger sister, bullied her mother, and even dared to beat her own father. Shi Ting, please be patient. She thought she had climbed up the ladder, but she will suffer in the future!"
"When the time comes, I will cut off her flesh piece by piece to avenge you! She must feel a hundred or a thousand times more pain than you do, only then can I allay the hatred in my heart!"
The servants struggled to get up and serve, came in triumph and left in embarrassment, and some who could not get up were picked up and thrown outside, and the yard was finally quiet.
A small door was smashed open in the west wall, and several rooms were brought in. Wang Gui and his men were busy until sun down, and they finally cleaned up the place and carried the betrothal gifts in.
When Jinqiu brought the meal, the kitchen staff no longer dared to deduct the eldest lady's food, and even added a few more dishes to please her, filling the table.
Ji Yunhuan divided the dishes into portions, and she took Mi Xue to eat in the house. She watched Mi Xue drink the tonic, and the maids came in to serve her. After she washed up, she took off her hairpins and rings, and lay comfortably on the bed.
The carved wooden bed was big enough, so she and Mi Xue didn't feel crowded lying on it. Ji Yunhuan grabbed Mi Xue's hand, so that she would know when Mi Xue moved, and no one could take Mi Xue away from her anymore!
That night, Ji Yunhuan slept particularly soundly, with his brows and eyes relaxed, and Yun Ye was very happy to see this.
He lay beside Ji Yunhuan, poking her face with his fingers and pinching her nose. Yun Ye had no entity and couldn't touch Ji Yunhuan, but it was just for fun. He felt that the more he looked at this woman, the more pleasing she was to the eye, and the more beautiful she became. It turned out that she looked better only when she smiled.
He was having fun when suddenly he felt dizzy and the face in front of him changed into Qingfeng's bitter face, which scared Yun Ye!
Qing Feng was very happy, "You are awake, my Lord! I will go and inform the Duke and his wife, they will definitely be very happy."
Yun Ye struggled to control his body and sat up, "Don't go! My father will scold me again when he comes, and my mother will cry. It will give me a headache. Go and call Aunt Nie over. I have something to tell her."
Nie Caixing arrived very quickly. The last time Yun Ye woke up, she ran over in a hurry. Surrounded by the Duke and Madam Dong, she didn't want to get too close. She just knew that Yun Ye was going to marry a girl from the Ji family, and she didn't have time to ask for details.
Seeing Yun Ye in high spirits, Nie Caixing sat down beside the bed, patted Yun Ye on the shoulder and said, "You scared me to death! You look better now, you won't faint again, right?"
Yun Ye didn't want to be in trouble. Ji Yunhuan hadn't married yet, so he had to go back to Ji Yunhuan and keep an eye on her to prevent her from being bullied again.
"Wait a few more days. Once Ji Yunhuan comes in, I should be fine."
"Aunt Nie, don't ask. If you ask, I will say that I fell in love with Ji Yunhuan at first sight and I will marry her! My illness will be cured if I marry her home."
"My father only knows how to teach me a lesson, and my mother stays at home all year round, only caring about my food and drink, and can't help me with anything. After thinking it over, I feel that only Aunt Nie can do this. Aunt Nie is a righteous person and reliable. I feel relieved when Aunt Nie takes action!"
