PFC Chapter 228 Request
Chapter 228 Request
Early in the morning of that day, Xu came to Lingyun Courtyard in person for the first time. She walked forward with a smile and wanted to take the handkerchief and wash Yunli's face with her own hands.
Yaoxiang quickly avoided Xu's hand and said respectfully, "I dare not trouble the Second Madam. The Second Young Lady will be served by us. The Second Madam should just sit down and talk to the Second Young Lady."
How can a mother serve her daughter, especially a mother she is not familiar with?
Haruka was afraid that she would shorten her daughter's life.
Xu was not annoyed, she just smiled and sat down, looking at Yunli and said, "Last night I heard that your sister Qingzhu is on her way back to Beijing. According to the time, she should arrive today. Yun'er, can you accompany your mother to the door to pick up your sister Qingzhu in person?"
Yunli stared at Xu with eyes wide open, and asked curiously, "Mrs. Shen, what is your face made of? It seems to me that your face is extra thick compared to other people's."
This is quite harsh to say.
Xu's face was livid, but she just thought about what she had to do today. She finally endured it and smiled to give herself a way out, "Yun'er just loves to joke. Your grandfather said that you and your sister Qingzhu are twin sisters. The elder sister came home from afar to visit the younger sister, so the younger sister should naturally go to the door to greet her."
"I should listen to what my grandfather said. But my grandmother also said that I am the only legitimate daughter in the mansion, and where did this elder sister come from? Madam Shen, do you think I should listen to my grandfather or my grandmother?"
Yunli smiled and threw the words back.
She loved to see Xu being angry but helpless.
Good looking, love watching, watch more!
Xu's face was finally about to be humiliated. "I know you have climbed up the social ladder now, and Lord Xiao and Nephew Liu both look at you differently. But if you ruin your reputation, I think those two young masters will look down on you, right? If I, as a mother, personally go out and say that you are unfilial and unfraternal, how will you defend yourself?"
"Pfft!"
Yunli couldn't help but laugh.
This woman was really raised by her father to be naive and stupid.
"Mrs. Shen, who do you think you are? You are just a lady of the Shen family. Can your words be more useful than those of my grandmother and my aunt? Don't be silly. It doesn't matter if you say that I am unfilial and unfraternal, but if my grandmother also says that you are unfilial and unfraternal, how can you prove that what you said is right and what my grandmother said is wrong?"
Yunli looked at Xu with a look of disdain from a superior to an inferior. "I advise you to think carefully before you speak. I am first a descendant of the Shen family, and secondly my father's daughter. As for who my biological mother is, what's the point? If you are not satisfied with me as a daughter, you can just not be my mother.
Even if my biological mother is a concubine or a maid, I am still the daughter of the Shen family. You can't be my master, do you understand?"
Yunli had no idea what was going on in this Xu's mind.
Is it so obvious, can't you see it now?
She and her three sons were the only ones who opposed her return to the Shen family. But was she successful?
No.
She, Yunli, was now sitting in the Shen residence, with a courtyard prepared just for her. She didn't want to call Xu her mother, and no one had forced her to do so.
Even Xu's status in the Shen family could be said to have plummeted.
Jiang used to give face to Xu, but now she doesn't even want to give her that face anymore and feels annoyed when she sees her.
"You, you, you! I am your mother after all! Why do you speak to me like that and hurt my feelings!"
Xu was so sad and angry!
She believed that she had done her best for Qingyun, and even got her hands stained with blood in order to avenge Qingyun!
She is a person who doesn't even dare to step on an ant to death, but she has done this for her own daughter. What else do you want from her?
"My mother? Excuse me, Madam Xu. You sent someone to drown my mother in the river at the entrance of the village three years ago. Do you still remember?"
Yunli's eyes were a little cold.
If it weren't for Yunmu's death, the original body would not have encountered those bad things, and she, Yunli, would most likely not have traveled to this world.
Therefore, Xu is the most damnable culprit!
And hurt her heart?
I didn't take out her heart to see what color it was, just for Shen Xiuyang's sake.
"She is not your mother! She is an evil person! If she hadn't deliberately switched you, how could you have left me and grown up in the countryside!"
Xu's eyes suddenly turned red, her body trembled, and she roared in a low voice.
She could be misunderstood by her daughter, after all, she had given up on her daughter. She could also be misrespected by her daughter, after all, she had hatred in her heart.
But she absolutely, absolutely could not hear her daughter say that she was not as good as Yunmu!
How could Qingyun compare her with the Yun couple who brought disaster to their family? !
She didn't even want to call Qingyun, a name that carries original sin!
Yunli felt like laughing.
Xu is really an idiot.
Couldn't they have sent someone to check out if Shen Qingzhu had any similarities with Yunmu?
But now she was too lazy to say these things. If she did, Xu would take this opportunity to give up Shen Qingzhu, which would disgust her to death.
"I can go to the door to greet Shen Qingzhu, but you know, I have to pay a bribe."
She didn't want to waste time talking to this silly woman, so she just asked for benefits directly, "Grandmother said you are very poor, so I won't ask for more from you. Five thousand taels of silver, take the money, and I will go with you to the door to welcome Shen Qingzhu."
Five thousand taels!
Xu was a little hesitant, but thinking of Qingzhu's face, she gritted her teeth and said, "Four thousand taels..."
"Yao Xia, show the guest away."
Without waiting for Xu to finish speaking, Yunli drove the person away.
"No, I mean, I'll give you 4,000 taels of silver notes, and I can use jewelry to pay for the remaining 1,000 taels, okay?"
Xu quickly changed her tone.
"Grandma is right. You are indeed poor."
Yunli looked Xu's clothes up and down and reluctantly agreed, "Give it to me. Don't bring those old jewelry from decades ago. If you dare to bring it, I will weigh your jewelry and convert it into silver."
Xu bit her lip, but finally said nothing and asked her personal maid Hongyu to go back and get the banknotes.
"Your sister Qingzhu has always been kind and easy to get along with. You will definitely like her when you meet her. Qingyun, she was still young when you were swapped. She didn't know anything. Mother begs you to get along well with her, okay?"
Xu sighed and sat there muttering to herself.
In her eyes, Shen Qingzhu, who she raised, was perfect in every way. Not to mention being a match for the current emperor, she was even qualified to be a match for the Jade Emperor.
