Chapter 117 Yun Quan's Question
Yun Juan frowned, thinking to herself, "There must be something fishy going on here! Knowing my mother as I do, she would never say such vague and ambiguous things unless the old lady had some important leverage over her!"
After much thought, there were only two reasons why Wei Wan was so wary: her second brother's leg ailment and the fact that her name was not on the family genealogy.
She would do everything she could to find a cure for her second brother's leg ailment; however, the only thing that might truly threaten Wei Wan was probably the crucial factor that she herself had not been included in the Yun family genealogy.
Recalling the past, Yun Juan couldn't help but sigh.
When the original owner was just born, he was ruthlessly sent to a remote manor to be raised.
That is why the name of the eldest daughter registered in the Yun family genealogy does not belong to her, but to Yun Rong, who was brought here.
At this moment, a startling thought suddenly flashed through Yun Juan's mind: Could it be that when the family genealogy was being compiled, it was stipulated that only one person's name could be recorded?
And it was precisely because of this restriction that Yun Rong was able to take the place that should have belonged to her.
Grandma Yun had already planned everything out, which is why she brought Yun Rong into the family!
Thinking of this, Yun Juan's eyes grew even colder.
It turns out that the old lady brought Yunrong back to the mansion simply to reclaim the status that originally belonged to her!
Even after many years, when she finally returned to this mansion, the title of the eldest daughter of the Yun family still belonged to Yun Rong, not herself, on the Yun family genealogy.
"Hmph! If that's really the case, then this old lady Yun truly dotes on Yun Rong, even at the cost of my interests!" Yun Juan snorted coldly, her heart filled with resentment and unwillingness.
Moreover, how could that old lady have done these things without Yun Ting's permission?
Even though Yun Ting did not explicitly express his opinion at the time, his silence was undoubtedly a form of tacit approval!
Thinking of this, Yun Juan felt a chill run through her body, as if it would freeze her completely.
If everything was meticulously planned from the very beginning, then once Wei Wan found out, Yun Juan simply couldn't imagine how she would bear such a huge blow!
Back then, despite the risk of severing ties with her parents, Wei Wan resolutely chose to marry the man she trusted wholeheartedly.
However, now, the man she deeply loves and trusts is willing to give up the rightful status of their biological daughter for the sake of a daughter born to a mistress!
Faced with such facts, how could Wei Wan bear it?
Yun Juan slowly turned her head, her gaze fixed on Wei Wan's direction, her eyes involuntarily revealing deep tenderness.
Wei Wan felt a surge of shyness rising in her heart as Yun Juan's intense and focused gaze was fixed on her. Her cheeks flushed slightly, and she said softly, "What's wrong, Juan'er? Why are you staring at me like that?"
In truth, how could Wei Wan not understand the reason behind this? She had already seen through Yun Juan's thoughts!
After all, as a young lady carefully nurtured by a prestigious family, her vision and grand perspective are far beyond what ordinary people can achieve.
She had been accustomed to the sordid dealings and wickedness within those wealthy families since childhood, and was deeply influenced by them.
It can be said that she had a profound understanding and experience of the complexity and ugliness of human nature.
However, when Wei Wan asked her, Yun Juan simply shook her head and replied with a smile, "It's nothing, Mother!"
Despite knowing the truth deep down, Yun Juan couldn't bear to shatter the last vestige of beautiful fantasy in the woman's heart.
Because she knew that in this world full of power struggles and deceit, it was already so precious to have a pure dream.
“Actually, I understand! All along, no matter what happened, I always avoided him and trusted him completely. But now, I think I should finally wake up from this dream! So this time, I specially called Yun Ting here, hoping to hear those words from his own ears!” Wei Wan bit her lip tightly, but did not specify which sentence it was.
However, how could someone as intelligent as Yun Juan not understand her mother's thoughts?
She knew all too well how much effort her mother had put into that so-called family over the years, and that her mother's resolute decision now was simply a way of putting an end to her desperate gamble all these years.
That was a period that made a mother make a painful decision and never look back!
Thinking of this, Yun Quan's eyes reddened, but she still managed to give Wei Wan a warm and firm smile.
That smile is filled with boundless support and deep understanding for her mother.
Looking at her daughter's encouraging smile, Wei Wan felt a surge of joy and gratitude.
It was because she had such a sensible and considerate daughter standing behind her that she had the courage to tear off those hypocritical masks at all costs.
Next, the Yun family will have to bear the brunt of her anger!
She secretly vowed to take back everything she had invested in the past!
When that time comes, she will use this wealth to buy a spacious and comfortable house, and then bring Xiao'er home in grand style.
From then on, their family lived a happy and harmonious life.
Without the greedy vampires of the Prime Minister's mansion, she and her children nestled together, spending a warm and happy second half of their lives.
After leaving Wei Wan, Yun Juan returned to her own courtyard and began to think. In fact, these things were not enough to make Wei Wan make up her mind.
She decided to add fuel to the fire and make it burn even more fiercely.
When Yun Ting approached his mother back then, did he really not know her identity? How could a penniless scholar dare to set his sights on the eldest daughter of the Grand Tutor's family? Did he really not know?
At that time, the Grand Tutor's mansion was at its zenith. Wasn't he afraid of offending the daughter of an official and being silenced? Obviously, he wasn't afraid. Instead, he was willing to gamble his life for wealth and glory. Yun Juan felt that this was too much of a coincidence!
Too many coincidences coming together turned into a conspiracy! Yun Quan felt that Yun Ting must have a mastermind behind him helping him devise a plan!
Given Yun Ting's cowardly and fear-averse nature, it's impossible for him to have planned so meticulously.
Almost everything seemed to converge into a line, from Yun Rong taking over the identity to Song Jin becoming the adopted son, Yun Quan became more and more suspicious.
