Chapter 166 This is just the beginning
“Mother, why don’t you go back to your own courtyard and pack your things? I’ll keep an eye on things here, nothing will go wrong!” Yun Juan said softly, her tone gentle but with an undeniable firmness.
She knew in her heart that the matter she was about to deal with was quite tricky, and she absolutely could not let her mother know the inside story.
Let her be the villain all by herself.
Wei Wan nodded after hearing her daughter's words and turned to leave. As she walked, she thought about the vegetables she had planted in the yard recently. She couldn't let those guys from the Yun family get away with it; she had to take every single seedling and leaf with her!
As for the innocent girl standing behind the old lady, Wei Wan secretly sneered.
Hmph, since this ignorant little white lotus is willing to step into the bottomless pit of fire that is the Yun family, then let her go!
Let's see how this shrewish mother-in-law and her profit-driven husband torment her.
As the saying goes, evil people will always have evil people to punish them. I'm sure she'll suffer a lot in the future!
After Wei Wan walked away, Yun Juan slowly started walking, step by step, towards those people.
Her steps were steady and powerful, each step seeming to touch the hearts of everyone present.
At this moment, her gaze was as cold as ice, fixed intently ahead, as if scrutinizing a dying person.
Yun Ting, who was standing to the side, had never seen such a terrifying look in his eyes. Even among those iron-blooded generals who had fought on the battlefield for many years and killed countless enemies, he had never experienced such intense ferocity.
The Yun Juan before them exuded a chilling aura, as if she were a vengeful ghost who had just crawled out of a mountain of corpses, carrying with her aura of malevolence and resentment.
Just one glance from that gaze was enough to make Yun Ting's legs tremble involuntarily.
"This is just the beginning, everyone. A warm welcome to your journey into hell! Come and join me in indulging and going crazy, my old baby! Now, please be sure to catch the surprise gift I've prepared for you!" Yun Juan grinned slightly, revealing a sly and unrestrained smile.
"How wicked! Such a young child with such a vicious heart!" The old woman was so angry that her face turned ashen, her whole body trembling. She was filled with remorse and wished she could turn back time to when Yun Juan was just born and kill her in the cradle with her own hands!
However, Yun Juan showed no fear in the face of the old lady's angry rebuke, and even responded nonchalantly, "Vicious? Hahaha, the word you used sounds quite novel and interesting! To me, it seems to be a compliment!" Obviously, she did not take the old lady's accusations to heart at all. After all, she was a person with nothing, and as the saying goes, those who have nothing to lose are never afraid of those who have something to lose.
Prime Minister Yun was deeply worried, fearing that he would lose his official hat, a symbol of power and status, because of this matter.
But Yun Juan was completely different. She had no official hat to protect, and the only thing she possessed was a marriage contract personally bestowed by the current emperor.
However, if the emperor were to suddenly change his mind and want to withdraw the engagement, she would wholeheartedly agree and be happy about it.
In this way, she would no longer be forced to marry that sickly man, and she would be able to travel freely to all countries in the world. Such a carefree and pleasant life is something to be longed for!
"I should have strangled you back then!" The old woman continued to curse, her eyes wide with rage and her face contorted with rage. Her vicious words were like a sharp blade piercing straight into people's hearts.
Yun Quan's smiling face froze instantly, and her eyes turned icy cold.
Suddenly, she stopped smiling and moved swiftly to the old woman like a ghost.
The next moment, she reached out with both hands without hesitation, grabbed the old woman by the neck, and lifted her off the ground.
At this moment, the old lady's feet were off the ground, she was having difficulty breathing, and her face was flushed red.
Seeing this, Yun Ting was extremely anxious. He struggled desperately to rush forward and rescue the old lady, but two burly, strong men grabbed his arms tightly from behind, making it impossible for him to move an inch.
"Quan'er, I beg you, let your grandmother go! She's old and can't take this kind of abuse! If you want to vent your anger, come at me... come at me! Let your grandmother go!" Yun Ting knelt on the ground, completely unlike the meticulous man in the court. Now, kneeling on the ground, he looked like a beggar.
"Strangle me? Too bad... Too late! Now you only have regrets!" Yun Juan said coldly, her voice devoid of any emotion.
Then, she casually tossed the old woman onto the ground like trash.
She found it all utterly absurd and ridiculous!
Who would have thought?
Yun Ting, who was usually as timid as a mouse, actually had the courage to kneel down and beg for his critically ill mother, just to get a sliver of hope to survive.
However, who still remembers the original owner?
The original owner was just a young and ignorant child at that time, and was so heartlessly abandoned on the estate, left to fend for himself.
No one cared for him or looked after him; he had to face all the hardships and tribulations of life alone.
It was as if the world had long forgotten her, leaving her to struggle for survival in loneliness and despair.
Then, she calmly took out a clean white handkerchief and carefully wiped her hands, as if she had just touched the dirtiest thing in the world.
After doing all this, Yun Juan slowly raised her head and glanced at everyone present.
Despite appearing calm on the surface, she couldn't help but feel a pang of sorrow and sadness for the original owner of this body.
After all, even without her transmigrating and taking over this body, given the original owner's personality and circumstances, it would have been difficult for her to survive in the Yun Mansion, a place full of deceit and intrigue.
Everyone here is treacherous and ruthless, capable of devouring people without spitting out the bones.
Thinking of this, Yun Juan sighed inwardly: How could the original owner, who grew up in the countryside, easily discard the various evaluations given by others?
Even Wei Wan, a legitimate daughter of a prestigious family and carefully nurtured by her aristocratic family, could not completely ignore the prejudices and gossip of the world. How much more so for the original owner of this body, who was all alone and helpless?
You know, if Wei Wan had been able to resolutely discard those things that bound her, she probably would have already parted ways with Yun Ting and divorced him long ago.
However, it is regrettable that she has always chosen to endure humiliation and silently bear all kinds of grievances and injustices until now, when she has finally begun to prepare for divorce.
What kind of torment must this long process of endurance be like!
It must have been filled with countless tears and heartache, as well as unspeakable pain and struggle.
