Yun Wanrou frowned slightly and looked at Jiang Huaishu with a serious gaze.
She fell into the pond and caught a cold, not hit her head and lost her memory.
How could she not remember whether she fell into the pond accidentally or was pushed in on purpose?
Behind her, there was only Chu Qiu.
Jiang Huaishu deliberately turned black into white. It seems that all this was their plan!
Yun Wanrou saw through it but didn't say anything, she smiled and said, "It turned out that it was Chuqiu who saved me, today I am so grateful to her.
But I didn't fall down by myself, I was pushed down by someone. My Lord, someone in the mansion wants to harm me!"
Having said that, Yun Wanrou grabbed Jiang Huaishu's sleeve and looked at him in pretended fear.
Jiang Huaishu's expression froze and he gently held her hand.
"You are the mistress of the Marquis' Mansion. How could someone in the mansion harm you? Did you make a mistake?"
"There's no mistake. I clearly felt someone push my back. There were not many people in the garden at that time, only Chu..."
Yun Wanrou frowned and swallowed the rest of her words.
She looked up at Jiang Huaishu and saw a hint of panic in his eyes. She said:
"It can't be Chuqiu. If she pushed me into the water, how could she save me? Lord, am I right?"
"Yes, your analysis makes sense!" Jiang Huaishu secretly breathed a sigh of relief: "Chu Qiu saved your life, we should thank her well."
Here we go, let’s get straight to the point!
Yun Wanrou remained calm and glanced outside.
"I don't know what she likes. Why don't you reward her with gold and silver for me, Lord?"
Yun Wanrou curved her eyebrows slightly and looked at Jiang Huaishu with a smile.
Jiang Huaishu's eyes turned and he said, "Giving these vulgar things as rewards cannot represent your feelings.
I remember you once told me that the biggest regret in your father-in-law's life is that you are his only daughter.
Why don't you accept Chu Qiu as your sister? This way you can repay her for saving your life, and also make up for your father-in-law's regret."
After Jiang Huaishu finished speaking, without waiting for Yun Wanrou to answer, he turned around and waved to Chu Qiu who was waiting outside.
Chu Qiu walked in quickly and bowed in front of Yun Wanrou.
"My Lord, Madam."
"Chu Qiu, you saved the lady and made a great contribution. I have discussed with Arou and asked the lady to recognize you as her adopted sister. Are you willing?"
Hearing this, Chu Qiu was delighted.
Although Yun Wanrou did not die, she could not become the mistress of the Marquis' Mansion for the time being.
But if everything goes according to plan, she would become Yun Xiucheng's adopted daughter.
After Yun Wanrou died, wouldn't it be better for her to marry Jiang Huaishu as an adopted daughter?
Thinking of this, she quickly knelt down and kowtowed to Yun Wanrou.
"I am willing, thank you, Madam..."
"Don't thank me yet, I haven't agreed yet!"
Yun Wanrou interrupted Chu Qiu.
Chu Qiu was startled and looked up at Jiang Huaishu.
Jiang Huaishu met her puzzled eyes, frowned, and looked at Yun Wanrou.
"Arou, didn't we just agree on this? Why did you suddenly go back on your word?"
"My Lord, you were the one talking the whole time, and I didn't get a chance to interrupt."
Yun Wanrou looked aggrieved.
When Jiang Huaishu saw her like this, he remembered that he had indeed not given her a chance to speak.
"Arou, you disagree, but I'm mad at you for not asking you what you think?"
"My Lord, you misunderstood me. I am not angry. I disagree because of Miss Chuqiu's background.
You also know that my family has a very strict family tradition and my father is a very face-conscious person.
If my father knew that I adopted a prostitute as my sister, he would beat me to death!"
Every word Yun Wanrou said pierced Chu Qiu's heart.
She gritted her teeth, feeling humiliated, and her face turned red.
Jiang Huaishu didn't notice her change of expression and continued to persuade her: "We can not tell Yue..."
"My Lord, do you want me to keep it a secret from my father?"
Yun Wanrou looked at him in surprise before he could finish his words.
"My Lord, truth cannot be hidden. If my father knew about this, he would be so angry that he would die. My Lord is making me look unfilial!"
Yun Wanrou frowned slightly and lowered her head.
Seeing that she couldn't accept this or that, Jiang Huaishu lost his patience.
He stood up suddenly and looked down at Yun Wanrou with displeasure.
"Chu Qiu saved your life, and you won't even agree to this little request? Ah Rou, when did you become so cold-blooded?"
Is she cold-blooded?
Oh!
If Chu Qiu hadn't pushed her into the pond, would she still need her to save her?
She had caused her to suffer, and now Jiang Huaishu wanted her to acknowledge him as her adopted sister.
How come they are so shameless?
Yun Wanrou clenched her hands slightly, hiding them under the quilt.
She suppressed the anger in her eyes and lowered her voice.
"My Lord, are you blaming me? Ahem..."
Yun Wanrou coughed pretending to be uncomfortable.
Jiang Huaishu glanced at her, indifferent.
Yun Wanrou slowly raised her head, looked at him, and then looked at Chu Qiu who was kneeling in front of the bed.
“My family has a strict family tradition, and my father will definitely not agree to let Miss Chuqiu become a member of my Yun family.
Since you are my husband, why don't you acknowledge this sister as your adopted sister for me and let her take your surname Jiang.
This way, I can repay Miss Chuqiu for saving me, and I won't make my father angry. What do you think, Lord Hou?"
Jiang Huaishu's expression froze. He didn't expect Yun Wanrou to make such a proposal.
If Chu Qiu became his adopted sister, then there would be no possibility for him and Chu Qiu!
Chu Qiu was also startled and looked at Jiang Huaishu helplessly, fearing that he would agree.
Under the gazes of the two women, Jiang Huaishu took a step back.
"You are still sick now, let's talk about this later!"
After saying this, Jiang Huaishu turned around and walked out.
After walking a few steps, I suddenly remembered that Chu Qiu was still kneeling.
He stopped and turned to look at Chu Qiu.
"You caught a cold while saving Ah Rou, go back and rest!"
"Thank you, my Lord!"
Chu Qiu slowly stood up and followed Jiang Huaishu out the door.
As the door was closed again, Yun Wanrou's eyes suddenly turned cold.
"Madam, why do I feel that the Marquis is a little strange? You fell into the pond and almost lost your life.
It would be fine if the Marquis didn't care, but why is he angry with you because you don't want to acknowledge Chu Qiu as your adopted sister?"
"Even you can see that."
Yun Wanrou leaned against the bed with a worried look on her face.
Lian Wangshu could see that something was wrong with Jiang Huaishu, but she couldn't see it before.
If she hadn't been able to hear Yangyang's voice, she would have known that Jiang Huaishu didn't have her in his heart.
Based on her trust in Jiang Huaishu, she probably wouldn't doubt him. He said this today for another purpose.
If she was confused, she would agree to recognize Chu Qiu as her sister.
Who knows what kind of trouble this will bring to her and the Yun family in the future?
Thinking of this, Yun Wanrou turned her head and looked at the small wooden bed.
From the time she woke up until now, I haven't heard her voice.
"Wangshu, can you help me look after Yangyang? Why isn't she crying today?"
Wangshu nodded slightly and walked to the small wooden bed.
Seeing Yangyang sleeping soundly with her eyes closed, she smiled faintly.
"It's probably because of the bond between mother and daughter. The young lady knew that the mistress was on the verge of death, so she kept clamoring to find the mistress. Maybe she was tired from clamoring for too long, and now she's asleep."
Yun Wanrou nodded slightly and breathed a sigh of relief.
Too many bad things happened today, she was really scared, and Yangyang also had an accident.
Fortunately, she just fell asleep.
…
Outside the yard, the wind and snow had stopped.
Chu Qiu followed Jiang Huaishu all the way to his room.
She closed the door and just turned around, she was slapped in the face by Jiang Huaishu.
She covered her face and looked at Jiang Huaishu blankly.
"Are you crazy? Why did you hit me?"
