My Inner Thought is Exposed! The Villain Family Defy Their Fate!-Chapter 16: How Does Little Sis Know Even This?

Chapter 16: Chapter 16: How Does Little Sis Know Even This?

"My child was ready to rescue, but before taking action, a guy beat me to it."

"That guy was so agile, his Qinggong was really remarkable, and he seemed to be an acquaintance of that lady."

"Not only did he rescue her, he seriously told me to leave, which was fine since it wasn’t my business anyway. Being driven away, I naturally wouldn’t stay to invite more embarrassment, so I went to Jufeng Building to drink with friends."

"I drank until evening, then headed back home."

"Mother, that’s everything that happened yesterday. Is there anything else you want to know? Like how much food I ate, how many drinks I had, or how many times I visited the restroom?"

[What??? Yesterday Second Brother was cut off from rescuing someone???]

[How has the plot collapsed again? Did I really wear the wrong book?]

When Yun Wanqing heard Yun Wanye’s words, it felt like thunder was rolling; she was utterly shocked.

[Whatever, whatever, I can’t figure it out anyway, let the plot collapse if it wants to.]

[Yesterday Second Brother didn’t rescue anyone, that lady shouldn’t be able to blame anything on Second Brother, right?]

[Second Brother won’t be forced to marry her, Duke Ning Mansion won’t be so scrambled because of it, and Father won’t be laughed at by the treacherous ministers and hundreds of officials.]

[Most importantly, Second Brother won’t fall out with Mother because of it.]

[But I’m still very curious, who was it yesterday that rescued her before Second Brother?]

Upon hearing the last sentence, Lady Yun’s expression subtly stiffened, feeling slightly guilty.

Yun Wanye also finally understood why Mother would summon him for questioning even though she knew all his movements.

It turns out it was because of little sis.

Little sis had been dwelling on this matter, and Yun Wanye felt a bit moved in his heart.

"Being your mother, I care about you, so I just wanted to ask more. What’s wrong, you aren’t happy about it?"

After a moment of awkward silence, Lady Yun glanced at him, saying that sentence in a dull tone. Clearly, she was displeased with his previous remark.

Yun Wanye quickly smiled apologetically.

"How could I not be happy? Mother cares about me, I’m too happy to not appreciate it. Am I the kind of ungrateful person?"

"I’m relieved you can understand your mother’s good intentions."

Lady Yun slightly smiled, yet somehow Yun Wanye felt an ominous premonition, his nerves on high alert.

Instinct told him that Mother’s next words weren’t going to be great.

"Since that’s the case, I have something else to mention. Yesterday King Qi came by the house to see Yao’er and brought up the proposal, saying they’ll marry once Yao’er comes of age."

"Mother thought about it, you’re not young anymore, your sister is getting married soon, so I wanted to ask if there’s anyone you’re interested in?"

"If there’s someone, Mother will ask someone to propose and get it settled early, so after Chen’er’s wedding, yours can be arranged too."

Indeed!!!

He knew that whatever Mother was about to say wouldn’t be good news.

Yun Wanye felt his head swell; how could he have imagined Mother would bring up his marriage out of nowhere?

Before he could finish, Yun Wanqing, who had been quietly soaking up the drama, couldn’t hold back any longer and internally gave her Mother a huge prompt.

[Yes, yes, Second Brother has someone!]

[Mother, you have no idea, Second Brother liked someone since he was very young, but he couldn’t keep his mouth shut and offended them thoroughly; they haven’t talked to him since.]

Yun Wanye: "..."

What, how does my little sis even know this too?

It’s like I’m completely exposed to her, with no privacy at all?

No wonder Mother suddenly thought of talking to him about this, it must have been because his little sis mulled over this out of boredom.

Lady Yun’s expression was instantly entertained; she never expected that Ye’er actually offended the person severely.

Could his mouth really be that annoying?

"Haha, Mother, you’re rushing things a bit, aren’t you? Seventh Uncle isn’t married yet. I’m really not in a hurry."

"If Mother doesn’t have much going on lately, maybe you can help Seventh Uncle look around first."

"If Seventh Uncle doesn’t marry soon, it might spread across the entire Capital City that he can’t do it. Grandfather, if he knew, would probably turn over in his grave from anger."

Yun Wanye hurriedly let out a nervous laugh to defend himself, while pulling Yun Zhan out as a shield without any shame.

Seventh Uncle, you’ve loved your nephew since he was little, this nephew needs to return the favor appropriately, no need to thank me.

"What kind of talk is this? Is this how you speak about elders?"

Lady Yun’s face turned dark; no wonder Xiao Si said his mouth runs wild and annoyed the lady until she’d ignored him.

If Seventh Uncle heard this, he’d probably give this boy a thrashing.

"Oh, Mother, which sentence I said wasn’t true?"

Suddenly, Lady Yun sighed, "Your words have some truth to them, Seventh Uncle is nineteen this year, among the sons in Capital City, he’s about the oldest."

"They say a sister-in-law is like a mother; Seventh Uncle was practically raised by me. I’ve brought this up with him a few times privately, but he just brushes it off; what can I do?"

"Oh, Mother, in short, if Seventh Uncle doesn’t marry, neither will I. Otherwise, if both older brother and I were married, and only Seventh Uncle was single, what would people say about our family? Those who don’t know might think we’re being cruel to Seventh Uncle by not finding him a wife."

Just as Yun Wanye finished speaking, a deep voice rang out, and Yun Zheng strode in.

"What’s everyone talking about?" 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

"Father, you’re back."

Yun Wanye swiftly stood up straight to greet him.

Father has a drill sergeant’s occupational habit, can’t stand seeing a man not standing properly; if Father sees him slouching, he’ll definitely boot him hard.

"Hmm."

Yun Zheng responded to him, walked to the window, and sat beside Lady Yun, picking up Yun Wanqing to tease her.

"Xiao Si, give Father a smile."

Yun Wanqing tugged at the corners of her mouth, drooling.

[Ah, drooling again, I’m too young to control my muscles well, accidentally the drool spills out.]

[Though it’s a bit unsightly, Father, please don’t dislike me. In some time, I’ll be able to smile cutely.]

The three were amused by her, but all held it back.

This little bundle seems a bit overly concerned about looks. Which babies don’t drool?

"Yo, my Xiao Si really smiled, Xiao Si’s so cute, even cuter than Ye’er and Yao’er when they were little. She’ll surely be a prettier girl than her sister when she grows up."

Yun Zheng unabashedly praised Yun Wanqing while stepping on the twins; Yun Wanqing felt delight from his compliments.

[Really, really? I feel much better then.]

[But Father, let me remind you, it’s wrong to praise one by belittling another. Sister’s the prettiest, at best I’ll be as pretty as her.]

Praising one while belittling another?

The couple and Yun Wanye felt they learned a new term.

Yun Zheng teased Yun Wanqing a bit more, then held her while looking at Lady Yun on the side.

"Lady, I heard the Su Family’s daughter is sick, high fever not subsiding for days, and Su Jian, that old fellow, is almost worried sick; this morning in court, he requested an Imperial Physician. I’m wondering, should we send someone over to see if they need help?"
