Quick Wear: The Beautiful Tool Man Refuses to Be Cannon Fodder

Chapter 158 The Cannon Fodder's Daughter 13

The incident ended with the death of Nanny Wu, and everyone present was ordered by the Marquis to keep their mouths shut and not spread what happened today.

As for Madam Qin, she was ordered to stay in bed and rest because she was not in good health. The housekeeping power of the backyard was temporarily handed over to Housekeeper Wu, and Madam Zheng would take over after she was out of confinement.

This incident developed in the direction they wanted under the planning of Madam Zheng and the secret promotion of An San. Madam Zheng can be said to be the biggest winner in this incident. Not only did she give birth to the Marquis' only son, but she was also asked to be the co-wife. Most importantly, she also had the power of housekeeping in her hands.

Especially now that Madam Qin has been ordered to rest, judging from the attitude of the Marquis, there is probably no chance that she will be released. After all, no matter where you are, the head of the family will not allow anyone to interfere with the heirs, not to mention the Marquis who has always hoped for many children. If she didn't have Yunxi, her legitimate daughter, she would probably have no choice but to die of illness.

When Yun Xi recovered from her injuries and came out, she found that the wind direction in the mansion had completely changed. Her mother was directly placed under house arrest, and even she could rarely visit her. Her status in the mansion was much worse than before, and the servants began to pretend to obey her and were very perfunctory to her, but they were extremely flattering to Madam Zheng.

How could Yun Xi, who had always been flattered, accept this? So she rushed directly to Madam Zheng's yard and made a big fuss.

The noise was so loud that it woke up the sleeping young master. He was frightened and burst into tears. Mrs. Zheng was so angry that she had her daughter taken back to her yard.

The frightened young master developed a high fever that night, and it was not until dawn that he got better, which made Madam Zheng, who had been worried all night, feel relieved. Then she was filled with anger, thinking of how Yun Xi had ridiculed and looked down on her before, relying on her mother being the mistress of the Marquis's Mansion. In addition, she had now directly barged into her yard, causing her son to be frightened and sick. How could she bear this anger under the new and old hatreds?

So, when the Marquis came to visit the young master in the evening, Madam Zheng tearfully told the Marquis about Yun Xi's previous behavior.

Knowing that Madam Zheng had been wronged, the Marquis immediately opened his private treasury and rewarded Madam Zheng with many things. He then went to see his son. Although his fever had subsided, his son was still not in very good spirits, and the Marquis was very angry.

The next day, he directly ordered Yun Xi not to enter Aunt Zheng's courtyard. At the same time, he went to the main courtyard again and gave Madam Qin a good scolding.

After the Marquis's actions, the Marquis's residence finally quieted down. Time passed day by day, and in more than a year, Yun Xi first came of age. As for Yun Miao, the Marquis had long forgotten that he had a daughter who had already come of age. Seeing that the Marquis didn't care, other people would not bring up the matter so tactlessly.

But for Yun Miao, not being remembered by the Marquis is actually a good thing. Yun Xi also couldn't come to trouble Yun Miao because of the Marquis, and she lived a very comfortable and peaceful life during this period. Because she was alone since she was a child, she often read books, painted, or tended flowers and plants to pass the time. This kind of life is also very enjoyable for her. Yun Miao was also curious a lot of the time. She had never learned calligraphy, but for some reason, when she picked up those books, the words on them would automatically appear in her mind. Mei Xiang didn't know if she trusted Yun Miao too much and never doubted this.

And in the border thousands of miles away, there is still a person who is silently paying attention to Yun Miao. He is Gu Yanting. Because the Xiongnu on the border frequently harassed him, he had to return to the border to continue suppressing them. And An San also followed his orders to continue to protect Yun Miao in the dark. During this year, An San would also pass on Yun Miao's news to Gu Yanting every day. It can be said that although he has not seen Yun Miao since that night, Yun Miao has always been in his life.

As time went by, knowing Yun Miao's life every day seemed to have become an inseparable part of his daily life. He knew that Yun Miao had been locked up in the small courtyard for so many years. She hated being bound and longed for a free life. I don't know if Yun Miao would like this border life with tough folk customs. She should like it! After all, An San mentioned in his letter that she likes flowers and plants very much. So there are endless grasslands here, and Yun Miao will definitely like it.

With An San's daily letters, Yun Miao's image in Gu Yanting became more and more prominent. He knew that Yun Miao was knowledgeable and a master of painting, and he also knew that she wanted to travel all over the country. As he got to know Yun Miao better, Gu Yanting became more and more obsessed with her. He could not wait to marry Yun Miao and take her to the country to enjoy the beauty of the country.

Time went on day by day, and finally, not long after Yunxi came of age, her marriage to the prince of Qi Xuan was finally decided. Yunxi's house arrest was finally over. Ever since she rushed into Madam Zheng's yard and frightened the young master, the Marquis himself had ruthlessly put Yunxi under house arrest, and also arranged a very strict nanny to teach Yunxi, regulate her sitting, standing, walking, etc., and wait until the afternoon to learn housekeeping from Madam Qin.

Although Madam Qin was under house arrest, she had always claimed that she was in poor health, so her reputation was still there. In addition, Yun Xi was the legitimate daughter of a marquisate, and even if she could not marry King Xuan of Qi, she would still be the mistress of the house, and she would definitely have to learn how to be a housekeeper. So Yun Xi began a miserable life of learning etiquette in the morning and housekeeping in the afternoon, so she naturally had no time to bother Yun Miao.

After waiting for a long time for her marriage with the prince to be confirmed and the serious nanny left, Yun Xi could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

The rules for men and women in the court were not strict, and unmarried women could go out with their entourage. Since Yun Xi learned that her marriage with Qi Yun'an was confirmed, she finally felt relieved. Although there were many twists and turns in the past, and it was very different from her previous life, it was good that her marriage remained unchanged. Next, she would wait for her marriage peacefully and the things that happened in her previous life would not happen again.

But after being detained in the mansion for so long, Yun Xi couldn't hold it in any longer. Before, she could still bully Yun Miao from time to time for fun, but now as the wedding date is getting closer, Yun Xi is getting more and more restless. She thought of Yun Miao, who lived in harmony with the prince in her previous life, and she became more and more worried that she could not compare to Yun Miao in this life.

Even though Yun Xi hated Yun Miao very much, she had to admit that Yun Miao's appearance could be regarded as stunningly beautiful. With the idea that she could not be outdone by Yun Miao, Yun Xi began to inquire about the whereabouts of Qi Yun'an Shizi, hoping to have more contact with him before marriage and leave a good impression.
