Sun Wanjing was also very upset! She also wanted to know how Sisi had lost her dowry and her people to Chang Le Fang. "Mother, calm down. I'll send someone to inquire right away."
The Sun family and the Yun family are related by marriage, and people from the Sun family are willing to tell those from the Yun family when they inquire about them.
Soon, Madam Sun and Sun Wanqing found out how Sisi got out.
Upon learning this, Madam Sun became even angrier. "What's wrong with Yun Yuqi? How can you let her go out so easily? This isn't the countryside, this is the capital."
Sun Wanjing was also puzzled. "I'll find an opportunity to ask Yuqi."
She had barely finished speaking when Lord Sun returned.
The mother and daughter immediately stood up. "Master/Father."
"Yes, please sit down."
After sitting down, Lord Sun looked at Sun Wanjing and asked, "How many people did Concubine Feng bring back this time?"
“Two. One looks like a bandit, the other like a ghost. That bandit is very powerful; even all my men combined can't beat him.”
Where is that ghost?
"I don't know. He followed behind that brat without making a move or saying a word."
"What did they do after they came back? What did they say? And how did your dowry and the people around you end up in that little girl's hands?"
Sun Wanjing recounted what had happened.
Lord Sun took a sip of tea after listening. "We all underestimated Aunt Feng. Did Aunt Feng guess why Yunqi brought her and her daughter back?"
Upon hearing this, Madam Sun immediately said, "Impossible. How could a concubine possibly guess these things?"
"Why not? If she hadn't guessed, how dare she instruct her daughter to stop Wan'er from leaving? How dare she let Yunqi change the divorce agreement into a letter of separation?"
Madam Sun: "..." Indeed, which concubine's daughter would dare to openly interfere in her father's and stepmother's affairs?
"Also, she had her daughter gamble Wan'er's dowry and all the people around Wan'er into Chang Le Fang, which might save the Yun family from the brink of extinction."
Is it really that exaggerated? It's just... Before she could finish thinking, Madam Sun understood. "You mean, she's forcing Minister Yun to withdraw from this struggle for the heir apparent?"
Lord Sun nodded. "Just you wait and see. Tomorrow someone will definitely impeach him, saying he's not strict with his family, and how can he manage the Ministry of Rites if he can't even manage his own household?"
Madam Sun: "If that's really the case, then... then shouldn't we thank her?"
Although they exonerated their daughter and grandson, if the Yun family were punished by the emperor, her grandson would become the descendant of a criminal and have no future.
Lord Sun nodded.
Madam Sun and Sun Wanjing: "..." Being tricked and then having to thank the person is really not a good feeling.
"Father, what should we do next?"
Lord Sun took a sip of tea. “Minister Yun has been preventing the Emperor from making Consort Zhang’s son the Crown Prince. The people of Chang Le Fang will definitely take your dowry and your people from the Yun family. The only thing we can do is stop them on their way back to Chang Le Fang and redeem them.”
Madam Sun and Sun Wanjing also wanted to redeem them. But...
“Father, the people in Chang Le Fang said that the child used my dowry and my people to pay off 100,000 taels of silver.”
Lord Sun took another sip of tea. "The Zhang family is trying to win people over. Your father is, after all, a fourth-rank official. The Zhang family should at least give me some face. However, it's impossible for them to bring back the dowry and the people without spending a single penny."
Madam Sun and Sun Wanjing felt a pang of resentment upon hearing this.
Sure enough, the people from Chang Le Fang brought Sun Wan Jing's dowry and her body out of the Yun family.
Sun Wanjing's people were stunned!
Yun Yuqi, Madam Yun, and Madam Yun told the steward that Sisi was not allowed to go out and then went to think of a solution. Yun Yuqi went to find his brother-in-law, Madam Yun went to find Minister Yun, and Madam Yun went to find her maternal brothers.
Butler: "..." You think too highly of me. How could I possibly stop her? She even dared to sell out the Third Young Mistress's people, so it's not impossible for her to sell me out too.
"Miss Sisi, you haven't eaten yet, have you? I'll have the kitchen prepare something for you. Let me tell you, we have a chef in our household who cooks exceptionally well. Whenever we have distinguished guests, the old lady always has him cook for us."
Sisi hummed in agreement and then took Lao Hei and Lao Bai to find Aunt Feng.
Aunt Feng was unaware that Sisi had done something big again.
When Sisi and the others arrived, Aunt Feng was packing her things. "You're back? What happened outside? I think I heard someone crying, but I didn't know if I could go out to see."
Before Sisi could speak, Lao Bai said, "Your daughter has gambled away the Third Young Mistress's dowry and people to Chang Le Fang. People from Chang Le Fang are coming to take things and people away."
"What?!" Aunt Feng's eyes widened instantly! "Sisi, you'll make your great-grandfather furious if you do this."
Aunt Feng had also worked in the capital and knew that Chang Le Fang was a tool for the Zhang family to amass wealth.
“No.” Sisi looked at Aunt Feng and said, “A person who can withstand all kinds of temptations and feels that what he is doing now is related to the safety of the world will not fall easily.”
Aunt Feng felt a little relieved. "Really?"
"Really." She had seen many people like that in her past life.
"That's good, that's good. By the way, what about the Third Young Mistress's maids? Will the people at Chang Le Fang sell them to brothels?"
"No. They are all from the Sun family. The Sun family is not an unknown family, and Consort Zhang is currently trying to win people over. The Sun family just spent some money and Chang Le Fang gave them to them."
Aunt Feng was completely relieved. "Did your father and the others scold you?"
"They're busy."
Yeah, right. "Luckily I didn't go out. Have you eaten?"
