Chapter 212 Teaching the Fake Little White Flower a Lesson

Old General Mu didn’t use a seal, but an array. Zi You had laid out an array in Hundred Herb Garden before she left. Old General Mu had learned from her and laid out an array in Youran Ju.

Other than Aunt Lan and Meng Fangzhou, the head of the guards in the General’s Manor, no one was allowed inside.

Zi You was really grateful to her grandfather for doing what he did. Otherwise, it would be really hard to say how her maidservants and nanny would be harmed by Wang Yiping.

Wang Yiping dared to even make a move against Nee Liu, much less the servants.

Zi You thought about the servants whom she had seen when she alighted from the horse carriage earlier. She didn’t recognize most of them. It could be imagined that Wang Yiping was afraid that her previous servants knew about her scandals that would affect her reputation, so she changed all of her confidants.

Moyun spoke quickly and whispered to Zi You, “Xiaojie, if you didn’t come back, that woman would have turned the heavens over. Sixth Yiniang is dead. Fifth Yiniang is crazy. The other yiniangs are suppressed by her until they don’t dare to make any moves. She even ordered people to set fire to Hundred Herb Garden. She didn’t succeed, but two people died.”

A sharpness flashed in Zi You’s eyes. She winked at Nee Liu and then smiled lazily. She said loudly, “Let’s go. We’re going to pay respects to mother!”

She wanted to see how that woman would pretend in front of her.

In Yiping Ju, Wang Yiping didn’t wait for Zi You to curtsy before she used her left hand that wasn’t holding a crutch to support her.

Resentment as poisonous as a snake’s flashed and quickly disappeared. She had the world’s most loving eyes and her voice was extremely gentle as she said, “It’s good that you’re back! Are you tired? Hurry and go back to rest. As soon as you’re back, you’ve been constantly busy.”

Her words had two meanings: First, Zi You came back, but she was busy with the second household’s matters and didn’t even come to pay respects to her mother. Secondly, she wanted to say that Nee Liu was incompetent in managing the household. That was why Zi You was busy as soon as she returned.

Zi You hadn’t replied yet, when Yu Lanxuan came over and smiled. “You jiejie, you’re back. If you weren’t back soon, my aunt would have gone crazy from worry!”

“Yes.” A servant lamented, “Furen hoped every day that Xiaojie would come back alive. She prayed for Xiaojie almost every day. The Bodhisattva is benevolent and heard Furen’s prayers.”

Praying for her to never come back was more like it. Zi You secretly sneered. She looked at Yu Lanxuan and smiled. “I haven’t seen Yu Xiaojie in more than two years. You’re really becoming more and more beautiful. A person is in high spirits on joyous occasions. Is your joyous event happening soon?”

“Aunt......” Yu Lanxuan instantly pretended to look bashful as she whined, “Look at You jiejie. She’s teasing me as soon as she comes back.”

Zi You looked at her bashful appearance and couldn’t help but think of her previous life. In her previous life, this shameless woman used this tender and cute appearance and let her mistakenly think that she was a lively, cheerful, simple, and kind girl. That was why Zi You didn’t guard against her and treated her like a real sister. But she had led the wolf into the house.

In this lifetime, Yu Lanxuan was still doing the same thing. Zi You didn’t say anything and pretended to look concerned. She looked at the servants and then stared at the woman who had spoken earlier. “Is this mama taking over Wei mama’s place? Where are Yenhong and Liulu?”

Zi You didn’t wait for Wang Yiping to answer and continued, “That’s good though. You should really take care of those servants who don’t know their place. Otherwise, they will think about how to harm people all the time. If mother has nothing else, then I will take my leave.”

Then she looked meaningfully at Wang Yiping, whose expression had changed, and started walking away.

While walking, Zi You deliberately raised her voice to reprimand her four maidservants. “You have to take that as a warning. Don’t have any dirty thoughts or don’t blame me for being impolite.”

Wang Yiping could only gnash her teeth in anger. She swung her crutches and fiercely hit the ground once, twice...... She hit more than a dozen times before sitting down in a chair with Yu Lanxuan and that woman’s help.

She looked at the cracked tiles on the floor as if they were Zi You. It would be great if Zi You was the tiles.

Yu Lanxuan immediately waved and ordered the servants, “You all leave!”

After the servants all left, she immediately closed the door and softly comforted Wang Yiping, “Don’t be angry, aunt. I’ll go vent your anger right now. Shizi already said that he wants to marry me as an equal wife. I’ll tell that cheap wench now and anger her to death.”

Wang Yiping looked quite concerned at her. “Be careful. Her martial arts are higher now. Don’t let her hit you.”

Yu Lanxuan smiled very proudly. “Don’t worry, aunt. She stayed in the mountains for more than two years, but I stayed in the inner courtyard of a large household and schemed and calculated all day. Do you think that she can win against me?”

Like this, Yu Lanxuan had the utmost confidence when she arrived at Youran Ju.

Zi You had just finished bathing at this time. She changed into clean clothing and started to leave to see Shui Yiniang. But Haiyun reported, “Xiaojie, that thick-skinned Yu Xiaojie is here. She said that she wants to see you.”

Zi You’s eyes flashed. She leaned lazily in a mahogany chair. “Let her come in.”

“You jiejie, I’m here.” Yu Lanxuan twisted her waist like a water snake as she walked over to Zi You. She didn’t curtsy and started to sit down.

Zi You extended her leg and gently hooked the chair back. Yu Lanxuan fell down onto the ground.

The little girl seemed to be incredulous. She crawled up in embarrassment and looked resentfully at Zi You. “What are you doing? Why did you move the chair?”

“Who are you questioning?” Zi You looked coldly at her. Although there was a smile on her face and her tone wasn’t very harsh, but the imposing momentum from her body made Yu Lanxuan shudder. She was instantly scared speechless.

Zi You impolitely mocked, “I know that you’re a Shu daughter. I won’t bother with your poor upbringing and poor etiquette. But if others see this, they will say you’re not educated and can’t be seen in public.

“Do you know what you did wrong? You have no title or rank. But you didn’t curtsy when you saw a seventh-rank government official like me. If this was the Palace, you will be dragged outside and hit with boards. Why aren’t you curtsying yet?”

Zi You was reprimanding Yu Lanxuan to force her to lose her temper so she could teach her a good lesson. But she didn’t think that Yu Lanxuan would actually curtsy and say, tearfully and aggrieved, “Paying respects to Commander Mu. Wishing Commander Fu good fortune!”

“That’s good.” Zi You leaned back on her chair like a superior queen. She looked at Yu Lanxuan condescendingly. “Always remember your identity and don’t overstep your bounds. Since you humbly corrected yourself, I won’t bother with it anymore. Go ahead and speak. Why are you looking for me?”

Yu Lanxuan almost fainted from anger. She had never thought that Zi You would treat her like this. She endured for a long time before she could suppress the resentment in her heart. She pretended be awkward and hesitated as she asked, “You jiejie, when you came back, did Duke Yongnan...... Shizi...... go welcome you? Did he...... Did he say something...... that made you sad, jiejie?”

Zi You’s eyes turned shrewd. She pretended to be angry and sighed helplessly. “Ai...... Don’t tmention him. Men are so......”

She didn’t finish speaking, but her meaning was very clear: Zhao HongXiang had made her unhappy.

Yu Lanxuan couldn’t help but be ecstatic! It looks like my Xiang gege really has me in his heart. In that case, I won’t be scared of you. What does a woman rely on? It’s a man’s love. If Xiang gege embarrassed you as soon as you came back, then why would I be scared of you?

Yu Lanxuan instantly looked weak and helpless. She cried pitifully and said, “You jiejie, don’t blame Xiang gege. It’s all my fault. It’s mine. I saw him drunk the other day, so I helped him into a room to rest. But I didn’t expect that he would...... He would......

“Don’t blame him, You jiejie. He was drunk. I was going to become a nun, but Xiang gege won’t let me. He said that he will take responsibility for me. He said that he...... really likes me.

“I beg you, Youe jiejie! My innocence is ruined. Please let me serve Xiang gege with you! I don’t want any status. I’m willing to be a servant or a slave. It’s fine as long as you allow me to look at Xiang gege from far away.”

“What did you say?” Zi You pretended to be angry as she slammed her hand down on a table in anger. Her whole body shivered. Then she sat back down and waved her hand as if she had suffered a terrible blow. “Leave. I will give Zhao HongXiang to you.”

“No......” Yu Lanxuan’s tears instantly flowed more freely. She shook her head and softly begged, “You must not blame Xiang gege! It’s not his fault! It’s really not his fault!”

Zi You couldn’t help but shake her head as she looked at her heartbroken and crying appearance. This woman was like a colorful snake. She used her beautiful colors to dazzle people. They thought that she was a docile and harmless flower, but she was poisonous all over. A little carelessness and they might be bitten by her and injected with poison.

This was how she had been fooled by her, bitten by her, and was poisoned all over in her previous life. But in this lifetime...... Zi You sneered. I will definitely tear off your beautiful mask!

Zi You deliberately said heartbrokenly, “Leave. I will dissolve the engagement with Shizi.”

“I’m sorry! I’m sorry!” Yu Lanxuan was ecstatic. She cried while she apologized and then ran out while covering her face.

As soon as she left, Zi You instantly revealed a relaxed and bright smile. The heavens were helping her! She was just thinking about to embarrass Zhao HongXiang before dumping him. Now, Yu Lanxuan handed her the opportunity.

The cheap little wench thought that she would be hurt if she and Zhao HongXiang dissolved their engagement. She was really too naïve. Zi You wanted everyone to know why she would dissolve the engagement. She wanted the slag male Zhao HongXiang and slag female Yu Lanxuan to be thoroughly discredited.
