Yun Muyou looked at Xu Xinmo, "Xinmo, although you bear the surname Xu, you now live in the Yun Residence, and going out with us, you can also be considered a young lady of the Yun Family. No matter how arrogant or overbearing you are within the residence, we will tolerate you. But once you step outside, you must be humble and polite, because you represent not just yourself, but the entire Yun Family, as well as the Xu Family. Every move you make is being watched by everyone. Today, you fiercely glared at your fourth sister, and many young ladies saw it, then they avoided us. Not to mention the endless gossip behind our backs, quite a few were criticizing us in our presence. Once this spreads, the whispers become shout, and our reputation will be ruined. Without a good reputation, how will you marry into a noble and esteemed family in the future?"
As Yun Muyou spoke, she took a deep breath, "I know I shouldn’t say this to you, but you’re not a child. Think about it yourself. If you think I’m wrong, feel free to go and complain to grandma!"
Having said this, Yun Muyou turned around and went straight to Mrs. He.
Yun Musi and Yun Mulan immediately followed Yun Muyou, feeling somewhat displeased with Xu Xinmo.
She’s truly a troublemaker.
They had thought they might get a chance to speak with the ladies of the Zhuangyong Marquis Residence today, but because of Xu Xinmo, hardly anyone paid attention to them.
Xu Xinmo stood there, unable to recover for a long time.
Yun Muyou actually dared to say those words to her, how could Yun Muyou dare?
Overwhelmed with grievance, Xu Xinmo ran crying to Cixin Academy, throwing herself into the arms of the old lady and recounted the entire incident.
After listening, the old lady’s heart sank a little. Once Xu Xinmo had stopped crying, she said, "Wanwan, tell your grandmother, to what kind of family do you wish to be married?"
Xu Xinmo looked up, her eyes blurred with tears, "Grandmother?"
"Would you like everyone to bow and show respect when they see you, to be so reverent that they hardly dare breathe?"
Xu Xinmo’s eyes suddenly widened.
Could it be, could it actually be true, the words she overheard that night?
"Wanwan, if that’s what you want, then listen to your grandmother. Restrain your temperament, and wherever you are, be humble and polite. Don’t let there be any negative rumors about you!"
Xu Xinmo was initially doubtful, but seeing the seriousness of the old lady, she nodded slightly, "I’ll listen to Grandmother!"
"Such a good child. Don’t hold a grudge against your older cousin. If she marries well, it will only help you more!"
Mrs. He was taking a few children back to her parents’ home, and the old lady wished for Mrs. He to take Xu Xinmo along as well.
Mrs. He was somewhat displeased.
Especially after what Yun Muyou had reported back yesterday, she had a disliking for Xu Xinmo.
But she couldn’t contradict the old lady’s wishes, so she had to suppress her annoyance and bring Xu Xinmo to the He Family!
Yun Jinnian rose early in the morning, got dressed after washing up, and went to Mrs. Han’s courtyard to accompany her for breakfast.
Han Xuzi had not returned last night. Yun Jinnian asked a few questions and was told he had gone to the palace to administer an antidote to the Emperor.
As for Yun Qi, Yun Jinnian did not inquire.
Mrs. Han also tactfully said nothing.
"Hmm?" Yun Jinnian’s watery large eyes looked at Mrs. Han.
Mrs. Han’s heart softened, "Are you ready with your gift for going to the Zhuangyong Marquis Residence today?"
"I’ve prepared it. I took two stalks of Hundred-Year Wild Ginseng from Grandfather’s medicine shop!"
Two stalks of Hundred-Year Wild Ginseng were actually quite a valuable gift.
"That’s appropriate!" Mrs. Han said as she ladled some soup for Yun Jinnian, kindly advising, "When you’re a guest outside, don’t be greedy even if the food is delicious; wait until you’re home, and I’ll make it for you!"
"Be sincere to others. If you treat others with sincerity, they will treat you sincerely in return. But if you encounter someone unreasonable, don’t be afraid. Our Han Family isn’t to be trifled with either!"
If others don’t offend me, I won’t offend them. If others offend me, I will repay it double!
