Chapter 4
Yun Jinran's cold eyes fell on Ms.
How do you explain this to your brother and sister-in-law?!
Within a short time, Xue Hongfan's scandal had been spread among the servants, and Mr. Xue also heard about it.
Ms. Xue's face was ugly. Her sister-in-law was a petty person. She and her children would have to rely on the Xue family in the future. This kind of thing should not be spread.
Yun Jinran continued, "And sister Jinxin, do you have evidence to prove that she didn't do it?"
Mr. Xue's face turned dark, "Don't fool me! My daughter will never do such a thing!"
"Your nephew corrected her, and I guarantee that he will still say the same thing in court, and..." Yun Jinran deliberately paused for a moment, and then said meaningfully, "I have another witness."
Yun Jinran looked at Xiao Cui with bright eyes, "Xiao Cui, you think so."
Xiaocui was shocked, "Miss, what did you say?"
Yun Jinran turned around, "Didn't you tell Yun Jinxin that I was not in the room last night?"
Xiaocui knelt down in front of Yun Jinran, "Miss, I am wronged. I have never done such a thing."
"You and Tan'er are the only two maids in my yard. It was Tan'er's turn to keep vigil in my house last night. How did you know that I wasn't in the room? It wasn't Yun Jinxin who asked you to keep an eye on me!"
Xiao Cui was trembling and couldn't speak for a while.
Yun Jinran said, "I don't want to waste any time talking to you. When you get to the government, they will have plenty of punishments to make you speak!"
Xiaocui kowtowed on the ground a few times, with a look of fear on her face, "Miss, for the sake of this servant who has been following you for so many years, you should go around this slave. I was so obsessed that I took advantage of the second lady, but this slave is really
You don’t know that she wants to harm you. If I knew this, I wouldn’t dare to do it even if I beat you to death.”
Xiaocui cried with tears on her face.
Yun Jinran withdrew his eyes coldly, "I'll settle your matter with you later!"
She raised her eyes and said, "Auntie, I heard you. There are two witnesses, and one is your nephew. He mutilated his limbs and defiled his innocence. I don't know what the punishment will be for this kind of thing. Is it ten years in prison or being immersed in a pig cage?
?”
Mr.
"Okay! You're cruel! Just wait for me!"
Xue turned around to leave, but Yun Jinran called out, "Stop!"
"What else can you do!"
"Apologise to my mother!"
Mrs. Xue seemed to have heard some fantasy, "You want me to apologize to this cheap maid?!"
Yun Jinran gritted his teeth, "If I hear these two words from your mouth again, it won't be as simple as an apology."
Mr. Xue looked at her contemptuously, "Only you? Who do you think you are!"
Yun Jinran stared at her fiercely, "I don't mind trading my reputation for Sister Jinxin's ten years in prison!"
Xue was speechless for a moment.
Yun Jinran's words touched her weak point.
Yun Jinran said, "I won't stop you. If you go forward, I'll report it to the official!"
Mrs. Xue gritted her teeth and hated her, but she had to compromise for the sake of her daughter.
"sorry!"
These three words seemed to be squeezed out from between her teeth.
"That's it? You have to bow at least to apologize."
Mrs.
"Hmph! I am teaching my aunt to be reasonable. If you were not my aunt, you should kneel down in front of my mother and apologize right now!"
Aunt Su pulled Yun Jinran and said, "Jinran, your aunt has already apologized, forget it."
She had never seen Ms. Xue give her any mercy in her life. It was enough to hear her say sorry today.
Moreover, she is a concubine after all, and angering Mr. Xue is not a good thing for her or Jin Ran.
Yun Jinran pressed Aunt Su's hand and said, "Mom, please leave it alone."
For more than ten years, her mother has never provoked Ms.
But Mrs. Xue never let her go, making things difficult for her and stumbling in secret.
What Yun Jinran remembers most clearly is that in the ice and snow that year, Ms. Xue made her mother kneel in the snow for one night. Her mother's knees still have sequelae to this day.
Let Mr. Xue bow and it will be an advantage for her!
Yun Jinran said, "Auntie, I said I won't force you, and I will never break my promise."
Mrs. Xue struggled for a long time, and finally bent over stiffly and apologized to Aunt Su.
After Mrs. Xue left, Yun Jinran asked the housekeeper of the mansion to sell the maid Xiaocui.
She lay on the wicker chair, and Aunt Su carefully applied medicine to her forehead.
There were faint tears in Aunt Su's eyes, "How could they bully you like this? It's all because I'm useless and can't protect you."
"Mom, this is just a minor injury, it doesn't matter."
"The girl is injured on her face, there are small wounds everywhere."
Yun Jinran held her slightly trembling hand, "Dad said that he has a panacea that won't leave scars."
Aunt Su sighed, "It's just that this time you angered your aunt, how could she let you go so easily?"
"As long as dad is here, nothing will happen to us."
It's not certain who won't be let go when the time comes.
Aunt Su lowered her head weakly, "Mom is worried about your brother. Your aunt doesn't know what she will do to him."
Yun Jinran's biological brother is two years younger than her. When he was two years old, he was taken away by his aunt because of her mother's weak body. He is now fostered under the name of the Xue family.
This matter has always been on her mother's mind.
Mr. Xue did not allow his younger brother to come back to see them under various pretexts, and they only rarely saw him once during the holidays.
Every time she sees her, her mother always cries.
Yun Jinran stood up, held Aunt Su's hand, and said solemnly, "Mom, I promise you, I will definitely bring my brother back and let him stay with you."
Aunt Su wiped away her tears and nodded.
She looked at Yun Jinran with a kind look on her face, "Jinran, why do you think you are different from before?"
She used to be very filial and sensible, but she has always been very well-behaved and never dared to go against Mr. Xue.
If she was wronged, she would only act coquettishly with her father. Why does she seem...a different person today?
Yun Jinran leaned on her shoulder, "Maybe it's because my head was broken. I feel very unreal right now, as if I'm drunk and dizzy. I will bully anyone who bullies me."
, I don’t care if she is the legitimate mother or not.”
Aunt Su looked at her worriedly, "Is there something wrong with your diagnosis? If it doesn't work, I'll go find a doctor for you."
"No, the doctor has just seen me. He asked me to have a good rest. I'm a little dizzy right now and want to lie down."
Aunt Su gently touched her back and said, "Okay, go and lie down in the room. Mom will prepare delicious food for you. You can eat it when you wake up."
"Um."
Yun Jinran was an orphan in his previous life and had no family. For the first time, he felt the warmth from Aunt Su. He felt warm in his heart and fell asleep beside her with peace of mind.
The next day Yun Jinran was woken up by Tan'er's voice.
