Yun Jinnian raised his head and looked at Mrs. He, just watching her faintly.
Without speaking.
His watery eyes were filled with tears.
They silently conveyed her grievances, her unwillingness, her hatred.
Yes, hatred.
At this mont, there was hatred in Yun Jinnian’s eyes, although faint, it surprised Mrs. He.
The look she had just given, was not rely hatred, it was like being targeted by a venomous snake; upon a closer look, the hatred in Yun Jinnian’s eyes was still present, but it had changed.
Mrs. He took a deep breath and said, "Jinnian, please listen to your elder aunt and get up, alright?"
Yun Jinnian lifted her eyes and continued to look faintly at Mrs. He, "Is elder aunt sure she can decide to let get up?"
Mrs. He’s face imdiately turned quite ugly.
She indeed did not have the authority to decide, but in this urgent situation, it was best to get Yun Jinnian up first before anything else.
"Jinnian..."
"What is elder aunt afraid of? Just because of what the cousin and two younger sisters said, grandmother didn’t even ask a question and made kneel outside; since grandmother has determined that I’m wrong, then I must be wrong!"
As she spoke, Yun Jinnian lowered her head again.
Mrs. He bit her lip, her palms sweaty, and incessant laughter echoed through the room, making her feel infuriated.
She quickly stepped into the parlor and exclaid, "Enough!"
Though Mrs. He’s voice was not loud, it carried an intimidating force.
The laughter stopped abruptly, and the old lady looked at Mrs. He displeased, "What are you doing?"
"Mother, are you just going to let these three make a fuss? Have you figured out what actually happened today? You’ve made Jinnian kneel outside as punishnt, but do you realize that it has started to snow outside, and Jinnian has almost turned into a snowman? If word of this spreads, what will outsiders think of the Yun Family?" Mrs. He’s outburst was almost a roar.
She also gave a stern look to her two daughters.
As for Xu Xinmo, being the darling of the old lady, Mrs. He simply didn’t bother with her, nor did she want to be concerned.
Yun Musi and Yun Mulan shrank back in fear.
Xu Xinmo was so scared that she was near tears.
However, the old lady suddenly stood up, quickly walked over to Mrs. He, and raised her hand as if to slap her, only to see outside the parlor that it was indeed snowing heavily, and both Yun Jinnian and Ming Yang were nearly buried in the snow.
The old lady’s eyes reddened slightly, perhaps reminded of sothing, and her hand slowly lowered.
After taking several deep breaths, she finally said, "Send her back to Niannian Garden, and have Ming Yang bring the Servitude Contract and serve her there!"
Mrs. He’s eyes suddenly widened.
Because all the people in Niannian Garden, except the wet nurse, had their Servitude Contracts in her possession and had not been given to Yun Jinnian.
The old lady slowly turned around, and Xu Xinmo hurriedly ca to support her, "Great-grandmother!"
The old lady patted Xu Xinmo’s head, "Great-grandmother is tired; you should also go back to rest."
"But..."
"Be good, go back!" the old lady said, retracting her hand and walking towards the bedroom.
Xu Xinmo pursed her lips tightly, unsure what to do for a mont!
Mrs. He turned imdiately and walked out of the parlor, "Soone, take the fourth miss back to Niannian Garden!"
Two maids imdiately ca forward, helping the stiff Yun Jinnian up, and slowly made their way out of Cixin Academy.
Upon leaving Cixin Academy, Yun Jinnian saw her father, Yun Qi.
In his thirties, Yun Qi wore a set of blue clothes and coldly looked at Yun Jinnian, his eyes showing little emotion, no hint of pity.
Yun Jinnian looked at him and slowly began to cry.
If he had cared for her the slightest bit, the old lady wouldn’t have treated her this way, nor would her sisters dare to bully and insult her.
The first glance she cast upon Yun Qi was bright and sparkling, but gradually, the brightness faded, becoming dimr and dimr, until it turned into thick disappointnt and disgust. She lowered her head and lightly stepped away, leaving Yun Qi behind.
Without calling out to him even once!
