So satisfying! The Great Demon King wiped out everyone equally!

Upon hearing this, Yun's father slammed his hand on the table, stood up abruptly, his eyes wide with anger, and roared, "This Fang family is simply going too far! Do they think our Yun family has no one to rely on? Although our Yun family are merchants, we have worked diligently for the imperial court, yet they dare to humiliate my daughter like this!"

His face was flushed with anger, his chest heaved violently, and his hands were clenched into fists, as if he was about to rush out and settle accounts with the Fang family at any moment.

Mica, standing to the side, already had tears welling up in her eyes, sobbing as she cried, "What am I going to do? Why is my daughter so unfortunate..."

Canglan gently patted Yunmu's hand and comforted her, "Mother, don't worry."

As she spoke, she took out a divorce agreement from the side and waved it around. "Father, Mother, look, they tried to steal a chicken but lost their rice instead. They gave me a divorce agreement, thinking that this would make me stay in the Fang family and be their money bag for life. What a fool they are."

When Yun's parents saw the divorce papers, their tightly furrowed brows relaxed slightly, and their expressions softened considerably.

Father Yun nodded slightly. “Whether Fang Yuhong is really dead or not is none of our business. After he is buried, you should leave this wretched place. Even if you never marry, your father can support you.”

"Thank you, Father and Mother. Don't worry. Since they dared to scheme against our Yun family and use me like this, I will never let them get away with it. Besides, I know what I'm doing. Once I've dealt with them, I will leave this place and will make sure I don't get hurt."

Seeing his daughter's strong will, Yun's father was filled with joy but also felt a pang of sadness at her maturity. "Good, go ahead and do it. If you need anything, like money or anything else, just tell me."

Canglan had been waiting for his father to say this, and immediately said, "Father, there is one more thing for you to do. The national treasury is empty now, and our Yun family is too prominent, which will inevitably arouse the emperor's suspicion."

She paused slightly, looking out the window. "Our Yun family must never appear richer than the royal treasury, or disaster may strike at any moment."

As a businessman who had spent many years navigating the business world and frequently dealt with powerful figures, Yun's father instantly understood his daughter's meaning. After a moment of contemplation, he said with a firm gaze, "Daughter, rest assured. I will donate most of the Yun family's assets to the imperial court, firstly to alleviate the urgent need of the national treasury, and secondly..."

Secondly, it will also demonstrate the Yun family's loyalty to the Emperor. With the Emperor's protection, they won't dare to easily harm the Yun family again.

After saying this, to avoid any unforeseen complications, Yun's father hurriedly left with Yun's mother.

Before leaving the Fang residence, Yun's parents did not forget to "put bad taste in Fang's mouth" for Madam Fang and Fang Yuwan in front of the mourners.

Yun's father feigned tears streaming down his face and said to the mourners who had not yet dispersed, "My poor daughter, she has just married into the family and has suffered such a misfortune. Now she is so weak that she can't even get out of bed. My wife and I are heartbroken. We happen to have a century-old ginseng at home, and we thought we would quickly bring it over to help her recover."

Mica joined in, sobbing and wiping away her tears with a handkerchief from time to time. Her sorrowful appearance would move anyone who saw her.

After the two left, the previously noisy mourning hall instantly became quieter.

The old man who had spoken up for Yun Muqing earlier snorted coldly, flicked his sleeves, and strode away from the Fang residence.

Following that, the other mourners also left one after another.

After everyone left, Madam Fang's face turned ashen. She glared at the doorway and cursed through gritted teeth, "Hmph, a bunch of petty opportunists! My son, no matter how bad he was, was still a great general who made outstanding contributions and sacrificed his life for the country."

If it weren't for the current situation, they would all be bowing and scraping to Hong'er and desperately trying to curry favor with him!

Fang Yuwan was so angry that she almost tore the handkerchief in her hand to shreds. "Mother, that Yun Muqing was definitely doing this on purpose today! She said she was so heartbroken over my brother that she wanted to hang herself, but I don't believe it! I didn't see her shed a single tear from beginning to end. That scene just now was probably an act she and that maid put on together!"

As she spoke, she made a move to walk out, muttering, "I'm going to find her and settle the score!"

Madam Fang reacted quickly, grabbing Fang Yuwan and shouting sternly, "Fang Yuwan, you stop right there!"

Fang Yuwan was startled by the sudden roar, her steps faltering instantly. Her face was full of grievance and resentment, but she dared not utter a word in rebuttal.

Mrs. Fang took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down, and then said seriously, "Now, the methods to ruin her reputation are no longer working."

With so many people present, news of her dying for your brother has already spread. In everyone's eyes, she's now a woman of great loyalty and affection. Targeting her now will only put us in a more passive position.

She narrowed her eyes slightly, a calculating glint in them. "The only way now is to make her stay in the Fang residence willingly. Since we can't get rid of her, she has to stay and be used by us."

Upon hearing this, Fang Yuwan couldn't help but retort, "But my brother has already given her the divorce papers. Whether she leaves or not is just a matter of time."

Besides! You want me, the legitimate daughter of a general's mansion, to lower myself to a lowly merchant's daughter? I simply cannot swallow this insult!

Madam Fang glared fiercely at Fang Yuwan, her eyes filled with warning: "You don't need to concern yourself with the divorce papers. She cursed her husband to death on her very first day of marriage into the Fang family. Who would dare to marry her after that?"

Only if we mention your elder brother from time to time, treat her well, and reason with her, will she be able to stay wholeheartedly in this general's mansion.

So listen to me! Don't you know what's going on in our household right now? After this funeral, I'm afraid we won't even be able to pay the maids' wages next month.

"If you still dream of wearing those beautiful dresses and jewelry in the future, you'd better behave and put away your spoiled princess attitude!"

Fang Yuwan gritted her teeth. Although she was extremely unwilling, she could only swallow her anger and say, "I understand," when she saw her mother's stern eyes.

Seeing her daughter yield, Madam Fang nodded slightly and turned to Granny Zhang, instructing, "During dinner, go and invite Yun Muqing over. Tell her it's to discuss Yu Hong's burial arrangements tomorrow. Remember, be very respectful!"

Upon hearing this, Granny Zhang looked troubled. She recalled the scene where she had gone to cause trouble for Yun Muqing and was beaten instead, and her face and body still ached slightly.

But since the lady had given the order, she dared not disobey. She could only reluctantly agree and turn to prepare.
