Quick Wear: I Fulfill the Wish of Cannon Fodder

Chapter 304: Ninghua Marquis's Concubine Turns Over

"Please understand, my lord!" Su Lan opened her red lips tenderly. She secretly used her spiritual power to protect her fair and tender knees, and then she knelt carefully and tremblingly on the cold and hard stone road.

"I am but a mere concubine. I have neither authority nor influence in this Marquis's mansion. How could I possibly have the ability to bribe a maid to do such a shameful thing? Besides, Master Tang was personally invited by you, the Marquis. I only learned of this matter today!"

After saying that, Su Lan lowered her head slightly, and gently raised a plain handkerchief with her delicate hands, pretending to wipe away the non-existent tears from the corners of her eyes.

Seeing this, Yun Hao, who was standing by, quickly fell to his knees and said anxiously, "Father, I can't believe my mother would make such a mistake. Please be vigilant and understand this!"

At this moment, Yun Xiao coldly looked at his wife, who was clearly feeling guilty. He understood most of what was going on and could not help but get angry. He shouted, "Enough! Stop nagging me about this!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he swung his hand and threw the exquisite wooden box he was holding tightly at the butler standing beside him, while shouting, "Come here, take this box and burn it!"

Then, Yun Xiao turned to look at Yi Qinghui, his face gloomy as water, and said coldly: "Madam, you haven't been feeling well recently. You should stay in the main courtyard for the next period of time to accompany your mother, recite Buddhist scriptures, and cultivate your character."

Afterwards, he made a prompt decision and ordered Yi Qinghui to be placed under house arrest in the main courtyard for more than a month, and ordered Old Madam Yun to take charge of all affairs in the mansion again.

At this time, Master Tang and his two disciples were standing by trembling with fear. They had just received a stern warning from the steward of the Marquis' Mansion, and were absolutely not allowed to disclose anything they saw in the Marquis' Mansion today.

How could the cowardly master and apprentice dare to disobey? They nodded hurriedly and swore to the butler that they would keep their mouths shut and not say a word to anyone.

At this moment, Yi Qinghui, supported by her maids, slowly walked past Su Lan and her child with a gloomy expression. She glared at Su Lan and the child in her arms and snorted coldly, "Hmph, don't think you can succeed like this! Don't be too proud, I will not be defeated so easily!"

Facing Yi Qinghui's hostile gaze, Su Lan remained undaunted. She tightly held the child to her back, her beautiful face expressionless, but her eyes, as cold as a pond, stared intently at her once-invincible master. She replied calmly, "Since that's the case, I'll wait and see what tricks Madam has up her sleeve. I just hope Madam can act quickly and not keep me waiting too long. Otherwise, when Madam loses power, I'm afraid I won't be able to resist kicking her when she's down, taking advantage of the opportunity to step on her a few more times."

Hearing this, Yi Qinghui was so angry that she was shaking all over. She opened her eyes wide and pointed at Su Lan and cursed: "You are such an ignorant bitch, how dare you speak such nonsense to me! It's simply treasonous and extremely rude!" However, no matter how angry she was, Su Lan remained unmoved and still stood there quietly, like an iceberg.

Seeing this, Yi Qinghui knew that it was futile to continue arguing with Su Lan, so she just threw up her sleeves and turned away angrily. Yun Lin, who had been following her, suddenly turned back before leaving and glanced thoughtfully at Yun Hao behind Su Lan.

This subtle movement naturally did not escape Su Lan's sharp eyes. She thought to herself: It seems that Yun Hao's death in his previous life is about to come early.

But that was fine, as it was a good opportunity to dampen the arrogance of Yun Lin, the reborn male protagonist, and at the same time, let Lord Yun Xiao see the true colors of these mother and son and never trust them again. Thinking of this, Su Lan raised the corner of her mouth slightly in a barely perceptible sneer...

Su Lan knew very well that Yun Lin was a scheming man, and was worried that her simple and kind-hearted son Yun Hao would be taken advantage of, so when no one was around, she quietly taught Yun Hao how to deal with Yun Lin.

Unexpectedly, Yun Hao was an extremely intelligent child. He understood the skills and strategies taught by his mother immediately. He even took the initiative to fill a wooden basin with water and bury his head in it to practice holding his breath in the water so that he could better deal with possible situations in the future.

Just after Yun Hao had practiced hard for several days, one day, Yun Lin came to Furong Garden happily with a string of tempting candied haws in his hand, wanting to find Yun Hao to fly a kite in the garden together.

Yun Lin pretended to be innocent, well-behaved and cute, and pleaded pitifully to Yun Hao, "Brother, we can do those homework after we get back. Please, can you accompany me out to play for a while now?"

"You have to know that ever since Mother was confined to her house, none of the maids and servants in the mansion are willing to play with me anymore! So now in this huge mansion, I only have you, my brother, as my only relative to rely on!"

As Yun Lin spoke, he secretly observed Yun Hao's reaction. However, Yun Hao seemed to have not heard anything at this moment. He was still concentrating on writing calligraphy with a brush in his hand, and had no intention of getting up to accompany him to play.

Seeing this, Yun Lin's eyes turned and a plan came to mind. He deliberately acted pitiful and fragile, trying to win Yun Hao's sympathy.

As expected, this trick worked. Yun Hao finally stopped waving the brush in his hand and nodded gently at Yun Lin, agreeing to accompany him to the garden. Then, Yun Lin happily took Yun Hao's hand and walked out of the yard.

Before this, Yunlin had already greeted the servants in the mansion in advance, so when the two of them left the yard, no one followed them. In this way, the two young masters came to the lake in the garden without any hindrance.

As the two stood by the lake admiring the beautiful scenery, they suddenly heard a cry of surprise: "Oh no! My jade pendant fell into the lake!"

It turned out that Yun Lin had taken advantage of Yun Hao's inattention and quickly tossed the flawless white jade pendant he was wearing into the lake. Then, anxiously grabbing Yun Hao's sleeve, he pleaded, "Brother, please help me think of a way! That's my birthday gift from Daddy. What should I do if I lose it?"

When Yun Hao approached the stone fence to look at the jade pendant, he was pushed down from behind by six-year-old Yun Lin.

Yun Hao slowly approached the stone fence, his eyes drawn to an exquisite jade pendant. However, he had no idea that danger was quietly approaching.

At that moment, Yun Lin, only six years old, quietly came up behind Yun Hao. He had a cunning look on his face, and a subtle glint of malice flashed in his eyes. He suddenly stretched out his hands and gave a powerful push. The defenseless Yun Hao instantly lost his balance and fell forward.

"Ah!" With a startled cry, Yun Hao plunged into the lake like a kite with its string cut. The water quickly submerged him, leaving only ripples on the surface. Meanwhile, Yun Lin, the perpetrator of the evil deed, stood there, his expressionless face coldly watching his half-brother struggling in the water.

Unexpectedly, this thrilling scene was seen by the Marquis and Su Lan who were passing by.
