She said no more.
Ye Chongde turned to the stewed poison on the table and the fragments on the ground, his brows furrowed.
"Why do you have to do this yourself? Can't you just have the servants bring it to you?"
"But... I want to serve the Madam personally..." The Third Aunt whispered softly, with a flattering expression on her face. As a concubine, she was of low status, so she naturally had to please the Madam to avoid being punished.
...Third Aunt's move is more insidious than making Su kneel down.
Ye Chongde's heart tightened, and he felt distressed. His wife, who was pregnant with his child, had to put herself in a difficult position to please others.
He hugged the Third Aunt and said coldly, "You don't have to do this in the future. No one will say you are wrong. If anyone dares to say a word of gossip, I will pull out his tongue!"
What an affectionate scene!
It seems as if they have forgotten who is the legitimate wife and who is the latecomer.
Ye Yunzi felt that this scene was particularly glaring. She had never been doted on by Ye Chongde, and only felt his severity and indifference, so she didn't think anything of it. But what about her mother Su... She was wholeheartedly devoted to her father, sharing the joys and sorrows with him. How painful it must be to see her husband defending another woman!
She felt heartbroken for her mother!
Ye Yunzi secretly clenched her fists. Compared to the burning pain in her hands, the pain in her heart was even more unbearable when she thought of her mother.
"Mom, my hands...it really hurts..." She suddenly shouted, stretching out her hands to show the red and swollen areas to everyone, so that everyone could see the heart-wrenching blisters at a glance.
Now, Ye Chongde finally noticed her injured hand.
Ye Yunzi's eyes were red, and she cleverly pretended to be about to cry, muttering softly: "A few days ago, in order to thank His Highness the Seventh Prince for his jade pendant, I promised to write and draw for him. Now my hands are burned like this... What should I do..."
Although his hand was burned, Ye Chongde didn't react much.
But once the matter of the Seventh Prince was brought up, his brows immediately furrowed and his expression became serious.
"What did you say?"
"Hurry! Where's the doctor? Why haven't you called the doctor yet? What if Yunzi's hand is injured? What should we do..." Ye Chongde pushed the third aunt away and looked at Ye Yunzi anxiously.
After all, Ye Yunzi's good relationship with the Seventh Prince was great news for the Ye family. If he could use this to consolidate their relationship, his status would naturally rise.
Ye Yunzi cannot afford any mistakes.
"Yunzi, you are too careless. You must be careful in the future and don't let yourself get hurt." Ye Chongde turned to look at the Third Aunt, thinking that her action was extremely unnecessary. "Wan'er, you don't have to do these jobs anymore."
"it's all my fault."
The Third Aunt lowered her voice, secretly lowered her eyelids, and her eyes fell on Ye Yunzi's hands, with mixed feelings in her heart. Why did she have to be related to the Seventh Prince?
The servant brought burn medicine and skin care cream, and Su applied them carefully to Ye Yunzi, her eyes full of pity.
"Yunzi, does it still hurt?"
"It doesn't hurt anymore, mother." Ye Yunzi shook her head and continued, "I'm a little tired and want to rest for a while."
"Okay, then you take a rest first."
Su ordered the servants to clean up the debris on the ground, then looked up at Ye Chongde and Third Aunt, and said calmly: "Third Aunt, your hand is also injured, find a doctor to see it, Zijinyuan will not keep you here."
These words obviously meant to send the guest off.
Ye Yunzi's injury made her so heartbroken that she had no mood to deal with these two people.
The Third Aunt's face changed slightly. She wanted to say something, but Ye Chongde had already pulled her away. Before leaving, he only left a sentence, asking Ye Yunzi to take good care of her injuries and not to miss the calligraphy and painting for the Seventh Prince.
Alas, there is no calligraphy or painting, it's just a little lie that Ye Yunzi made up on the spur of the moment. Unexpectedly, this trick worked quite well, and easily pulled Ye Chongde's eyes away from the third aunt. She couldn't help laughing in her heart.
Inside the boudoir, the aroma of medicine was so strong that it could not be dispelled.
The back of Ye Yunzi's hand was injured, so she couldn't move much, which gave her a rare moment of leisure. The maid Yu Shu was carefully changing the bandage for her. Seeing that the originally delicate back of her hand was scalded and peeled, she frowned tightly and felt very distressed.
"Miss, if you have a scar on your hand, your future son-in-law might not like it..."
Although Yu Shu complained, she was actually full of complaints about the Third Aunt. You said she had a miscarriage, but instead of staying at home to take care of herself, how did she have time to run out and burn our young lady's hand?
Ye Yunzi's face was calm, this little injury was nothing to her. The Third Aunt was probably anxious, anxious to squeeze them out as soon as possible, so that she could climb from Wenma Courtyard to the position of Madam of Ye Mansion. Even if she couldn't be the principal wife, being a co-wife would be good.
In her previous life, the Third Aunt had really succeeded in doing so. Not long after entering the mansion, she was promoted to the second wife and gave birth to a son. However, her mother was depressed because of this incident and was eventually poisoned to death by someone else.
As soon as Su died, the third concubine naturally took control of the backyard power and secretly used all means to pile all the benefits on her two children.
Ye Yunzi's eyes were deep, with a hint of coldness in them, so cold that everyone around her couldn't help but shiver.
"When Third Aunt comes again, don't let her in, and don't let her get close to Zijin Courtyard, so that we won't be blamed for anything that happens to her baby. If you can't stop her, go find the master and ask him to keep a close eye on Third Aunt and stop her from doing these tricks."
"Yes, Miss." Zhilan answered, with a chill in her eyes. She stayed by Miss's side to protect her, but she didn't expect that Miss would suffer from the burns.
In her heart, the hatefulness of Third Aunt and Ye Ziru had reached a new level, and she really wished she could get rid of these two evils one night.
……
The next half month or so was peaceful. Ye Yunzi couldn't get her hands wet, so she simply stayed at home, planting flowers and appreciating grass in Zijin Courtyard, living a leisurely life. Since she didn't go out, she naturally didn't run into the Third Aunt.
It was not until Su Huan said he wanted to visit the Ye residence that Ye Yunzi dressed up for the first time.
"This Ye Mansion was a well-known wealthy family a hundred years ago. The old man built the scenery with small bridges and flowing water according to the model of Jiangnan gardens..." The two walked and talked in the corridor side by side.
The Ye Mansion has a large territory, and it was even more magnificent in the early years, but now the family has fallen into decline, and the garden is not as well maintained as before. If the Ye family was not short of money, Ye Chongde would never have lowered his face to marry the girl of the Su family.
Speaking of the Su family, they are rich, and their business is everywhere from the capital to the south of the Yangtze River. The Su family started out as a businessman, and as a businessman, they are not well-known and have a low status.
But by the time of Old Master Su, he donated money to serve the country and did a lot of good deeds. People spread the word that he was a living Bodhisattva.
