The more cowardly a person is, the more wild they are; I've driven the villainous minister craz

No sooner had Prince Chen left than he sent someone to offer apologies.

This time there were no silver ingots, only some precious tonics.

Old Master Feng immediately took the items into his arms, giving the Yun family no chance to refuse.

“Wan’er is weak from the poisoning and needs to be properly nourished. These medicinal herbs are not only hard to find, but they are also very expensive. Your Yun family’s savings are not enough to buy them.”

After saying that, he gave Yun Shang a look of utter disdain.

Yun Shang remained silent for a moment, then said nothing.

Yu Wan understood the meaning behind Elder Feng's glance.

He's complaining that Yun Shang doesn't earn enough money and is only supported by his wife and elderly mother.

But in fact, Yu Wan knew that Yun Shang had already saved a lot of money.

Before being accepted as a disciple by the dean of Bailu Academy, he was already the most outstanding student at the academy. Even a casual annotation of one of his articles would be eagerly sought after by the sons of wealthy families.

He had given all the money to Ms. Shen, but she was worried that he would need to spend a lot of money while traveling and refused to accept it.

Therefore, this matter should only be unknown to the original owner of the body.

Yu Wan could understand. Yun Shang knew that the original owner had impure thoughts, so he would naturally be wary of her.

She glanced at the silent Yun Shang, cleared her throat, and said, "Mother-in-law, let's pack our things and go back now."

Madam Shen responded with an "Eh," and quickly packed up the bundle.

Prince Chen not only sent them tonics, but also arranged for a carriage to take them back.

Before leaving, Yun Shang suddenly spoke up.

"Yu Niang, I want to say a few words to you."

Yu Wan paused as she climbed onto the carriage, turning to look at him in confusion.

She was about to suggest that Yun Shang speak here when a hand reached out and grabbed her wrist.

Yu Wan's pupils dilated.

He...he actually touched her on his own initiative?!

Yun Shang didn't notice the shock in Yu Wan's eyes and pulled her to a corner.

Yu Wan was still in shock and hadn't come to her senses. She followed him blankly.

A man's cool voice came, "A perfunctory apology is indeed worthless. Prince Chen has already promised to ask for the title of 'Yuanren' for you."

Upon hearing this, Yu Wan subconsciously recalled the explanation of 'Yuan people' from the original work.

She looked at Yun Shang, hesitated, and said, "Did you ask Prince Chen for it for me?"

Yun Shang looked at her indifferently and did not answer.

The sky was rather dark today, which made the man's skin appear even whiter.

He lowered his eyes slightly, remained silent for a moment, and then reached into his pocket to take out a gray purse.

It was handed to Yu Wan.

Yu Wan was momentarily stunned, her thoughts still lingering on the previous topic.

But then Yun Shang spoke, his voice still clear and calm, but upon closer listening, one could detect a hint of unease.

"This is the money I've saved over the past two days. You can take it and spend it; don't worry about saving it."

"When you run out of flowers, come to me for more."

Before Yu Wan could react, he had already stuffed the purse into her hand.

She pursed her lips, glanced at the stunned Yu Wan, and turned to leave.

Yu Wan stood there, stunned: "..."

Is she dreaming?

Yu Wan reached out and pinched her face hard.

"hiss--"

It will hurt!

So it wasn't a dream?

Yu Wan stared in shock at the purse in her hand, opened it, and saw five silver notes worth one hundred taels each!

Five hundred taels! Did Yun Shang give her all his savings?

why?

Why did he give her money? And why did he let her keep asking him for more after she spent it all?

He even petitioned Prince Chen for a reward for her?

Yu Wan suddenly felt that her brain capacity was insufficient. An answer was about to come to her mind, but she subconsciously ignored it.

Impossible! The male lead belongs to the female lead. He can only love the female lead. How could he possibly fall for this vicious female supporting character?

Yu Wan boarded the carriage absentmindedly.

With her sharp eyes, Shen spotted the purse that Shen was holding in her hand and hadn't had time to put away yet.

A smile instantly appeared on his face.

She knew that this was Yun Shang's savings from the past few years, and the fact that Yun Shang was willing to give this money to Yu Niang proved that he had accepted her.

Madam Shen deliberately asked, "Yu Niang, what did Yun Shang say to you alone just now?"

Upon hearing Shen's voice, Yu Wan looked up as if waking from a dream.

She recounted how Prince Chen would request that she be granted the title of 'Yuanren'.

The silver notes were mentioned again.

As Shen listened, her smile grew wider.

Looking at the smile on Shen's face and then at the purse in her hand, Yu Wan hesitated and asked, "Mother-in-law, why did Yun Shang give me the silver notes?"

Seeing her dazed and confused look, Madam Shen couldn't help but find it amusing. She took her hand, patted it, and teased, "What else could it be? Of course, it's because he already considers you his wife."

"It is only right for him to give you the money. Keep it safe. You can eat or buy whatever you want without worry in the future."

Yu Wan was even more stunned when she heard this.

Her mind was filled with the words Shen had just said—

He treats you like his wife.

wife……

Yu Wan's vision went black.

How could Yun Shang consider her his wife? Wang Wanshu is his destined partner!

*

Half an hour later, Yu Wan and her group returned to Shijia Village.

Old Master Feng went back to prepare the medicine first, and Madam Shen helped Yu Wan out of the car.

Hearing the commotion, Yunxi, who was inside the house, was already waiting at the door.

Upon seeing Madam Shen and Yu Wan, the little girl's eyes lit up. "Mother, sister-in-law, you're finally back!"

She heard from Uncle Dazhuang yesterday that Yu Wan had been poisoned, and she was so worried that she didn't sleep all night.

Yu Wan noticed the dark circles under Yun Xi's eyes and guessed that she must have been worried about her and hadn't slept well last night.

Her heart warmed, and she quickly said to her, "Come inside quickly, don't stand at the door. It's cold today, don't catch a cold."

Shen also smiled and urged them on.

Yunxi obeyed and obediently retreated into the house.

The house hadn't been cleaned for several days, so after helping Yu Wan inside, Shen turned around and went to get busy.

Yunxi sat down in front of Yu Wan, looked her up and down, and then whispered with red eyes, "Luckily, sister-in-law is alright, otherwise Mother would definitely be heartbroken..."

She said sadly to herself, "That night, my mother waited for my sister-in-law but she couldn't find her. She even lost her appetite. Later, she asked Uncle Dazhuang to take her to the county town to look for my sister-in-law..."

Yu Wan was taken aback.

Neither Madam Shen nor Yun Shang mentioned these things to her.

So it turned out that Shen couldn't wait for her to come home and found her in the county town in the middle of the night?

She had always felt that the Shen family treated her very well, but she never imagined that the Shen family could treat her to this extent.

On such a cold day, because she hadn't gone home, he went to find her in the middle of the night, hungry.

Yu Wan's nose tingled with tears, and she couldn't help but ask Yun Xi, "Didn't you ever consider... that maybe I left on my own?"

Yunxi sniffed, looked up at her with teary eyes, and nodded, saying, "I've thought about it."

"But Mother said that my sister-in-law would not do that."

“Even if my sister-in-law wanted to leave the Yun family, she would definitely tell us.”

Yu Wan felt as if something had stabbed her in the heart.

She lowered her eyes, wiped away Yunxi's tears, and said with a smile, "Yes, if one day I want to leave the Yun family, I will definitely tell you."

Yunxi's eyes widened slightly as she asked in confusion, "Does sister-in-law still want to leave the Yun family?"

Yu Wan bit her lip.

She didn't want to.

But she didn't want to be a tool for the main characters to develop their relationship.

She didn't answer Yunxi's question, but made an excuse to change the subject.

Yunxi didn't dwell on it and sensibly let the matter slide.

The prescription given by Elder Feng was very effective. After four or five days of recuperation, Yu Wan's health had improved significantly.

After this ordeal, she cherished her life even more.

With two patients in the family, Shen Shi forcefully took over all the household chores and forbade Yu Wan from touching cold water at all.

That noon, Yu Wan had just finished drinking the medicine that Elder Feng had brought when she heard a commotion coming from the courtyard gate.

Old Feng peeked out and frowned, saying, "These people look somewhat unfamiliar..."
