570 Leaving in Anger (1)
Especially Yuan Yuwan. She was Xiao Qirui’s official wife. Who knew if Feng Manman would use her as a stepping stone to do something to her?
Not long after the visiting card was handed in, You Bai came out.
She led the master and servant in and did not idle along the way. She whispered to Shen Yijia about what had happened in the residence recently.
In You Bai’s opinion, Shen Yijia had helped her young lady a few times. She was one of the few people in the world who treated her young lady well and was reliable. Moreover, it was not a secret. There was nothing she could not say.
!!
“For some reason, the general quarreled with Madam, making her so angry that she packed her things and returned to her mother’s house in Mindong. Eldest Miss was worried about Madam, so she left with her.”
Shen Yijia was a little surprised. Xiao Ruoshui had left the capital without even informing her. It seemed that this matter had happened quite suddenly. However, with a dangerous person like Feng Manman in this residence, it was good to leave for a while.
Thinking of this, Shen Yijia stopped in her tracks.
Could it be that General Xiao deliberately angered Mrs. Xiao away because of Feng Manman?
He knew that Xiao Ruoshui was worried about her mother and would definitely follow her. This way, the two women in the backyard would stay away from Feng Manman. On the one hand, it would also provide Feng Manman with convenience.
Shen Yijia pursed her lips and asked, “Mindong Mountain is advanced and far away. Why would General Xiao be at ease letting Auntie Xiao and Ruoshui go?”
You Bai knew that Shen Yijia was on good terms with Xiao Ruoshui and thought that she was worried about Xiao Ruoshui. He pursed his lips and comforted her with a smile. “Although the general is quarreling fiercely and everyone in the residence knows about it, as soon as he heard that Madam and Miss had gone out, he immediately sent a team to follow and protect them. My Miss said that General Xiao actually cares a lot about Madam and Miss, but…”
She looked around and coughed lightly. She leaned close to Shen Yijia’s ear and whispered, “He’s just too prideful.”
No matter what, they were talking about their master. It would be terrible if others heard them. You Bai only dared to say this to her because she treated Shen Yijia as one of her own.
Hearing You Bai’s words, Shen Yijia felt that she was telling the truth.
What about Sister Yuwan?
Shen Yijia suddenly felt that she was very lucky. Not only did she transmigrate and get a handsome husband, but Madam Li also treated her well.
Although it was a little difficult at first, to Shen Yijia, that was nothing.
Of course, General Xiao’s actions could not be said to be wrong. After all, everyone was close to each other, so it was impossible for him to send away all the women in the residence.
However, Shen Yijia’s heart ached for Yuan Yuwan, who would try her best to take care of everyone around her like a big sister.
She had the concern of the Song family, and Xiao Ruoshui had General Xiao’s protection.
But what about Yuan Yuwan?
Even Pavilion Elder Yuan, who treated her well, protected her because she was smart.
It was not difficult to imagine that if Yuan Yuwan was like the other disciples of the Yuan family, Pavilion Elder Yuan would definitely give up on her like he gave up on those people.
However, this impure love was the only warmth she received in her life.
You Bai did not know what Shen Yijia was thinking. He puffed up his cheeks and continued, “Now that my Miss is in charge of the family, Aunt Qiao is picking on her every other day. She wants to s.n.a.t.c.h the power to manage the family from my Miss.”
“Who’s Aunt Qiao?” Shen Yijia asked subconsciously.
You Bai lowered his voice again. “She’s the most doted on concubine in the general’s backyard.”
“Xiao Ruoqian’s biological mother?” Shen Yijia pursed her lips. If someone had told her in the past that the Aunt Qiao was doted on, she would have believed it.
After knowing General Xiao’s arrangements, she did not believe it at all.
Without knowing what Feng Manman wanted to do, he sent Madam Xiao and her daughter away. He clearly didn’t want the two of them to take any risks. If he really doted on Madam Qiao, how could she not send her away?
“It’s that woman.” You Bai raised his chin proudly. “However, my young lady isn’t easy to bully. No matter how she jumps up and down, she won’t get any benefits.”
As they spoke, they had already arrived at the Splendid Courtyard.
“What are you gossiping about with Jiajia again?” Yuan Yuwan was placing snacks on the waterside pavilion with a few maidservants. When she saw them, she quickly welcomed them.
Her hair was tied into a woman’s bun, making her look even more gentle. She looked good and seemed to be doing well.
“I didn’t say anything.” You Bai blinked innocently.
Yuan Yuwan didn’t understand her yet. Fortunately, she hadn’t been here for long. Otherwise, the Xiao family would have been exposed.
However, she also knew that You Bai did not treat everyone like this. She did not continue this topic. She pulled Shen Yijia to sit down at the waterside pavilion and said with a smile, “Coincidentally, I brought them to make some snacks in the small kitchen. Try them. If you think they’re not bad, you can bring some back for Auntie and the others to eat later.”
