Unfortunately, Yan Yile was not appreciative, "Great-aunt, since you think marrying up is not good, then why didn’t you stop my eldest sister from marrying into the Prince Residence? Isn’t she also marrying up? Aren’t you afraid she will be aggrieved?"
Madam Li was once again so stifled by Yan Yile’s words that her chest hurt.
Just now, she was being compared to Yishuang, and now, to her own daughter.
It wasn’t that she favored her own daughter, but this niece really needed to take a good look at herself in the mirror—from top to bottom, in what way could she compare to her daughter?
Madam Li really wanted to pry open her head to see if it was filled with water. She truly did not know where her confidence came from.
Seeing that Madam Li was at a loss for words after being questioned by her, a hint of smugness passed through Yan Yile’s eyes as she laughed, "Great-aunt, you always talk about treating everyone equally, but your actual actions have always been discriminatory."
Madam Li laughed out of anger, "Yes, I have discriminated against you. You’ve had private meetings with an outside man, committing shameful acts, tarnishing our family’s reputation. We can no longer discipline you. We will pick a day to send you back to your biological parents so they can manage you."
Upon hearing this, Yan Yile became anxious. If she returned to her old home, then everything would be over for her.
Yan Wenjie and Zhu Qiyun also became anxious. Just as they wanted to speak, they heard Yan Yile blurt out in panic.
"Why?! If we’re talking about tarnishing the family’s reputation, how can I surpass my eldest sister? The whole of Beijing was buzzing about the eldest sister seducing the Little Prince back then, yet you all didn’t say a word about her, did you?"
"How come when it’s my turn, even though the news hasn’t been spread around, you’re still relentless? My marriage to the Feng Family also benefits the Yan Family—why can’t you stand to see me do well? I..."
Seeing that both Madam Li and Yan Zhigao were furiously pale, Zhu Qiyun, in a panic, lunged forward to cover Yan Yile’s mouth, "Fourth Sister, shut up!"
"Second Sister-in-law, let her go, let her continue talking."
A cool voice suddenly entered everyone’s ears. Madam Li and Yan Zhigao looked up only to find Daohua had returned at some point and was currently standing by the door, expressionlessly watching Yan Yile.
Daohua stepped into the room, offered a courtesy to Yan Zhigao and Madam Li, then sat down on a chair. She coldly faced Yan Yile, who was kneeling on the ground.
"Fourth Sister, keep going, let me hear how I have tarnished the Yan Family’s reputation in your heart?"
Seeing Daohua, Yan Yile felt somewhat unnerved. Though she did not want to admit it, she was indeed somewhat afraid of her eldest sister. Seeing the disdain in her eyes, Yan Yile felt a surge of resentment and blurted out:
"Isn’t it true? If it weren’t for my eldest sister’s deliberate closeness to the Little Prince since childhood, flattering and pleasing him, hooking the Little Prince’s heart, with our family’s background, how could you possibly have married into the Prince Residence?"
"My affair with Second Brother Feng is nothing compared to you and the Little Prince!"
Outside the room, Zhou Jingwan overheard Yan Yile’s words and couldn’t help cursing, "Crazy dog!"
Su Shiyu heard her and quickly glanced at Yan Yihuan beside her. Seeing that she wasn’t paying attention, she glared at Zhou Jingwan.
Zhou Jingwan muttered quietly, "I haven’t said anything wrong, Yan Yile is just a mad dog that bites indiscriminately."
Madam Li understood her daughter’s meaning and glanced at Yan Zhigao. Seeing that he remained silent, she knew he couldn’t truly ignore the matter and sighed, "If the Feng Family takes the initiative to come forward with a marriage proposal, I will help to accept it. But if the Feng Family doesn’t send anyone, Wenjie, you will have to take the trouble to escort Yile back to her hometown."
As she spoke, she looked towards Yan Zhigao.
"What do you think, my lord?"
Yan Zhigao looked at Yan Wenjie and his wife and Yan Yile, sighed deeply and had to concede that they were not his own children; no matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t gain their favor, "Let’s do it this way." With that, he got up and left the room.
Madam Li didn’t want to see Yan Yile anymore and took Daohua into the inner chamber to talk.
In the room, only Yan Wenjie, Zhu Qiyun, and Yan Yile were left, and it was then that Yan Yile muttered to herself, "Feng Er-gege will definitely persuade his uncle and aunt to come forward with a proposal."
Zhu Qiyun looked at Yan Yile with indescribable feelings, "Little sister, even if you get your wish and marry into the Feng Family, without the support of your maiden family, how will you establish yourself within the Feng Family?"
Today, the little sister had completely offended her uncle, aunt, and elder sister.
In the third branch of the house, Yan Zhiqiang shook his head, "Today Yile’s words have truly hurt big brother and sister-in-law."
Madam Wu nodded, "Not to mention big brother and sister-in-law, even I felt chilled to the bone. How did Yile become like this? In the end, even Daohua was dragged into it; I could see that she was quite upset by it."
Yan Zhiqiang sighed, "Anyone would be angry in this situation. Yile really takes after her mother; she’s intelligent enough, but short-sighted. How does offending Daohua benefit her?"
Madam Wu said, "To marry into the Feng Family, she’s offended everyone in her own family. Even if she gets her wish in the end, can her days ahead truly be good?"
