Before Master Mu could speak, Lan Xi had already knelt down in front of Master Mu, tears welling up in her eyes, "Aunt Xia is right, whether Xiaotong did this intentionally or unintentionally, it was the people in the daughter's yard who made a mistake, and the daughter's discipline
If the servant is incompetent, please ask Daddy to punish him."
This kind of compromise made Master Mu feel soft. He had always loved Lan Xi. Although she was just a concubine, she was extremely sensible and considerate. She never made things difficult for him and always put herself in his shoes. Looking back at Liu Yun,
He often causes trouble without saying anything, and always embarrasses him regardless of the occasion.
He looked at Liu Yun silently, thinking in his mind how to solve this matter.
"What my sister said is really interesting. As a sister, I haven't spoken yet, but my sister has been punishing me one by one, as if my sister and father are both unkind people. Even if Xiaotong is a person in your yard, she will not
It means she made a mistake and you have to bear it. Besides, as Aunt Xia said, it might just be a misunderstanding. Why should my sister take the lead in this way? It seems that I, the eldest sister, is the kind of cruel and ruthless person." Liu Yun supported his head.
, chuckled lightly, with a playful look on her brows, making it difficult for anyone to tell whether her words were true or false.
Qianlan frowned at the side, and was greatly surprised that the eldest lady was so calm. If this matter had happened in the past, the entire Mu Mansion would have been turned upside down by the eldest lady, but now she is so calm.
, it’s really surprising.
"Master, it seems that our eldest lady has really grown up." Xia smiled warmly and looked at Liu Yun with a flash of relief in her eyes. She was just thinking about how she would react if the eldest lady insisted on making things worse.
Well, I didn’t expect that the eldest lady would not even have the slightest intention of causing trouble.
"Yes, Liu Yun has grown up." Mr. Mu also smiled happily. He is a shrewd businessman. Seeing Liu Yun's different attitude, he has noticed something strange, but such a change is what he is looking forward to.
After all, Liu Yun is the legitimate daughter of the Mu family and has a distinguished status. Even if she is not favored by him, her status is there and she will always have to think carefully about marrying in the future. Master Mu has always been worried about Liu Yun's temperament and his impetuousness.
He didn't know if she would bring trouble to Mu Mansion in the future, but now that she was more sensible, he felt relieved.
Lan Xi shed tears aggrievedly and said softly, "After all, Xiaotong has been following my daughter for many years..."
"Let's leave this matter to Liu Yun. She has grown up and is capable of handling matters in the house. In the future, when she gets married, she will also be the mistress of the house. Master, what do you think?"
He smiled at Master Mu, and then said to Liu Yun, "The master has always said that the eldest lady should help Sister Ruyu with some housework. The eldest lady was young before, but now she will have to give her a hairpin in a few months, so it's time for her to do so.
Learn a little bit."
Mr. Mu nodded, "That's true, then let Yun'er handle this matter."
Lan Xi gritted her teeth. She really didn't want to hand her over to Liu Yun. She was well aware of Liu Yun's methods of torturing his servants. Whether Xiaotong would survive if she fell into her hands was the second best thing. If she was forced to bite her back, she said
It was she, the second young lady, who ordered the eldest lady to be pushed, so even if she jumped into the Yellow River, she wouldn't be able to clean herself up.
"Dad, I'm afraid this isn't appropriate." Liu Yun glanced at Lan Xi's forbearing expression speciously, and secretly admired in his heart that there are probably not many women who have not yet reached the age of hair extensions who can be as forbearing and restrained as she is.
"Why is it inappropriate?" Master Mu's eyes flashed with interest. His daughter rarely looked so unhurried and unhurried, and he admired this confident look.
Liu Yun was about to speak, but was interrupted by a cough. She put her right fist against her lips, and coughed intermittently. After a while, she finally regained her breath and said in a low voice, "My daughter's body has not yet recovered."
After recovering, I don’t have the energy to deal with this matter now. Why don’t we give Xiaotong to Lan Xi? My daughter believes that Lan Xi will give her an explanation. What does dad think?"
Seeing Liu Yun's pale complexion, Mr. Mu couldn't help but frown, glanced at Lan Xi who was silent, and finally nodded in agreement, "Okay, then let Lan Xi handle this matter.
Just take good care of yourself and don't worry about these things."
"Yes, my daughter will definitely give her sister an explanation." Lan Xi agreed repeatedly.
At this moment, the butler's voice came from outside the door, "The master made an appointment with Dr. Liang from the medical clinic a few days ago to come over to see the third lady. Now he has arrived in the front hall."
"I know." After saying this, Mr. Mu stood up and left Liu Yun's room with Xia. Liu Yun pretended to be tired, so Lan Xi had no choice but to take Xiaotong back to her yard.
After a while, Qianlan couldn't help but ask, "It's obviously Miss Tongtui, why didn't the miss keep her to investigate and let the second miss take her back?"
"Wan Qing, what do you think?" Liu Yun did not answer, but waved to Wan Qing, who walked in with a bowl of medicine, and asked her to come over.
He handed the medicine in his hand to Liu Yun and said immediately, "Miss, it is the best choice to push this hot potato out."
"How do you say that?" Qianlan frowned, looking confused, "Is it just because you don't want to offend the second lady?"
"Although Xiaotong is said to belong to the second young lady, she is still a slave. Even if the eldest lady punishes her, it just gives people the feeling of bullying. Everyone must think that the eldest lady is using the excuse to blame Xiaotong, and they will only feel that Xiaotong and the second lady
He is the innocent victim." Wan Qing paused and saw Liu Yun nodding before continuing, "But letting the second lady handle this matter now is to express her position, regardless of whether Xiaotong did it or not.
Yes, the second young lady will definitely protect herself wisely. If she protects Xiaotong, then everyone in the Mu family will think that she is a master who protects her servants. If she pushes Xiaotong out and sacrifices her, then who else will dare to be loyal to the second young lady in the future?
?”
Qianlan looked at Liuyun with sudden realization and blurted out, "When did Miss become so shrewd?"
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere suddenly froze. Qianlan also realized that she had said the wrong thing, and immediately knelt down and slapped her lips, "It's the slave who talked nonsense."
When Wan Qing was about to excuse her, Liu Yun waved his hand and said with a smile, "Get up, you're right. I was too simple in the past, so I was plotted by others without knowing it. This time, they wanted to kill me."
If I am still not awake after this, I would be really stupid."
Although this reason is not convincing, it is still very credible. After all, Liu Yun almost drowned in the lake.
Of course, what they didn't know was that Liu Yun had another reason for doing this, but they just didn't know if what she expected would happen.
