Chapter 15: Brother and Sister-in-Law Block the Door
Seeing that the old woman listened, Mrs. Xu was very satisfied. She turned to her son and daughter-in-law and instructed, “Feng’er, Feng’er’s wife, I reckon Yunzhi will be back soon. You go to the front gate and wait. When you see her, don’t let her enter the mansion. Send her directly to the nunnery outside the city.”
“Yes, Mother!” The two responded respectfully, then left Mrs. Xu’s courtyard and headed towards the main gate.
Meanwhile, Yunzhi was still on the road. Because of the large amount of dowry, the ten or so horse-drawn carriages traveled together, forming a spectacular line of wind shadows.
Soon, people began to inquire, wanting to know whose carriage team was so extravagant, loaded to the brim.
Yunzhi didn’t intend to hide it. After all, her divorce would be known sooner or later. Besides, it wasn’t her who was acting improperly. She wouldn’t hide it.
As for whether it would affect her future marriage, it wasn’t even in her consideration. After all, she didn’t intend to remarry, right?
People say that a woman follows her father in her first marriage and her own heart in her second. Before, she had no choice. Even if she didn’t like An Xiuyuan, she still married him. But now that she was divorced, Yun Fu couldn’t control her anymore. Whether she married or not was up to her.
After Yunzhi’s announcement, the entire capital knew that the Marquis of Dingyuan had divorced his wife, who he had been married to for only a month, for a mistress.
This explosive news didn’t extinguish everyone’s gossiping. Especially seeing the carriages loaded with so many things traveling on the street, everyone wanted to know where Yunzhi was taking them.
So, in no time, a long line of people followed the carriages to watch the spectacle.
Seeing so many people following, Rulan worriedly said to Yunzhi, “Miss, there are so many people following behind the carriages. Isn’t it a bit inappropriate? I’ll go chase them away.”
“No need. These people following are good for me. They’ll be my witnesses.”
“Miss?” Rulan was a little puzzled, not understanding what these people following could be witnesses to.
Seeing her confusion, Yunzhi glanced at Rumei beside her and asked, “Rumei, you tell her.”
“Yes, Miss!” Rumei nodded, then said to Rulan, “Sister Lan, haven’t you noticed that the old woman hasn’t returned yet?”
“I know she hasn’t come back. So what?”
“So what?” Rumei said to Rulan with some exasperation, “My dear sister, don’t you think about how Madam treats Miss usually? Not to mention that Miss didn’t discuss the divorce with Madam. Just considering Madam’s dislike for Miss, do you think we can enter the Yun Mansion today?”
After Rumei’s reminder, Rulan quickly understood and said, “The old woman didn’t come back. She was detained by Madam?”
“Most likely. It’s probably because Madam doesn’t want Miss to return to the mansion, but also doesn’t want her to turn back halfway. Maybe she even has her eyes on Miss’s dowry and wants to take it back for the second Miss. That’s why she didn’t let the old woman come back, fearing she would leak the news.”
“If that’s the case, should we go back?”
“Go back! If we don’t, how will we sever ties with them later?”
After listening to Rumei’s explanation, Rulan didn’t ask any more questions. Anyway, Miss’s decisions were always right. If she could really shake off that whole family and sever ties with the Yun family, it would be a good thing for Miss.
Soon, the carriages stopped at the main gate of the Yun Mansion. Yunzhi looked at the tightly closed gate and Yunfeng and Lin Meijiao standing at the gate, a hint of mockery on her face.
Brother and sister-in-law blocking the door, interesting!
