22 The Rude Maids from the Wan Clan 2
Bai Yuan is sitting next to Wan Yihai with Ling Xia behind her. Wan Yihai who was the clan leader watch everyone's gaze and action before he starts revealing, "My daughter, Wan Changying has returned from her trip so..."
"I will not accept, Father! Even if she is your real daughter, I'll still have to say this, please forgive this disobedience daughter. My 'sister' have the nerve to skip her duties as the next head to go on a trip when there is chaos within the clan leaving everything to me. How can she still maintain her own status!" the girl angrily announced with a glance at an elderly man.
"Clan leader, you must think this through roughly... How about making Mingxia your real daughter and letting her be the next clan head." The elderly man that Wan Mingxia glance at said.
Eyeing everyone in the hall and seeing they all seem to agree on this, Wan Yihai hands are sweating but he still needs to defend his daughter's position as the next clan head.
As he was about to speak, Bai Yuan interrupted him, "What's the rush, sister Mingxia. If I marry, the clan head seat won't belong to me. You as the daughter father adopted should mind your words when speaking to the first miss of the Wan Clan. Even if I went out a bit, you should try to carry some of my burden as my sister. Isn't that the reason why father adopted you, so why are you talking nonsense. Don't tell me, Mingxia hates me as your older sister and doesn't want to help the clan for her sister."
Wan Mingxia's mouth was hanging opening, she didn't expect that Wan Changying who is a coward would speak up. She quickly adjusted her complexion and with tears coming out of her eyes she insisted, "How can you sa..."
"How can I say what Mingxia? Your words to me just now sounded like that. Like a sneaky fox that wants more than it can take. There's no need to shed tears, you have been a great asset to the clan like you always wanted," Bai Yuan said politely looking sad and disappointed at her supposedly sister.
Wan Mingxia's words were stuck in her throat with no way out. Even if she wants to say something or explain, it would only make people believe Wan Changying more. She makes some sniffing sounds and rubbed away the fake tears in her eyes.
Bai Yuan only thought when seeing her action was 'What a good actor, sticking to the role until the very end'.
Wan Mingxia notices the young man standing behind Bai Yuan and smirk. Her tears that are already cleaned up started to fall again, uncontrollably. She cried, "Even... even if that is true... sister... you shouldn't bring a...another m... man to the house when you are already engaged."
Bai Yuan sipped her tea and want to puke it out but instead, she swallows the water. Using the handkerchief handed to her by a nearby maid, she tries to gently wipe her lips but stops. The handkerchief has a weird smell to it, the smell was sweet and acidic.
She looks up and stares into Wan Mingxia's eyes, "Mingxia use this handkerchief. The maid gives to me but I feel like you need it more than me. I'll answer that question if you do since it's very to your liking."
Wan Mingxia hesitated from grabbing the handkerchief. She was debating which is more important, the handkerchief or Wan Changying's answer. This answer could change the tide towards her, Wan Changying even admitted that's it's to her liking. Even if Wan Changying has changed a bit from her trip, doesn't mean that she could win against her (WMX).
Wan Mingxia isn't going to let something that is already lost get in her way of claiming the Wan Clan. She is so close to getting the title of the Clan Head's only daughter and future head of the Wan Clan. Wan Mingxia gently grabs the handkerchief from Wan Changying's smooth soft hand. She gently dipped the handkerchief around her eyes and swap a glance at Bai Yuan for her to reply.
Bai Yuan replied, "Mingxia already knows that I, Wan Changying is engaged to Huang Hoa Ying so who wouldn't want my head. Having two of the four great families joining hands isn't good for many. Even the other two great families of Hu De might have something against it. While I was on my trip, I was inches close to losing my life."
"Who would dare go against a marriage that is approved by the Emperor! Do they belittle our Wan Clan so much to use such underhanded method!" one of the elders shouted out while the others follow suit.
Wan Yihai motioned his hand to claim down the situation and allow Bai Yuan to continued.
"...That's why father place someone to be my guard within and outside of the Wan Clan. We never know who or what can go wrong. Does this satisfy your curiosity, Mingxia? By the way, Mingxia, I'll help you educate the new servants. While on my absent it has been hard on you. Being the first miss, this can help me better understand the Huang Clan's situation when I married, right," Bai Yuan ended her sentence with a bright carefree smile.
When the some of the elders saw this smile that the first miss always has but as she grows older, she never shows again. They can feel that they have traveled back to the past, to the happy times when the first miss's mother and the old clan master was still alive.
They all agree that what she said makes sense. How can a woman who is going to be married off not know anything about household work? This would be an embarrassment for the Wan Clan if it really happens. What they don't know is that Bai Yuan is just speaking nonsense to make Wan Mingxia angry and see what she would do next. She never has the idea of marrying while pretending to be Wan Changying.
She entered the room that the maids lead her to which is supposed to be Wan Changying's room instead it feels like she entered a stable for horses rather than for a human. The two maids that guided her giggles behind her whispering, "This is what you get for not knowing your place.", "Who in this house still believe that you are the first young miss.", "She's no more than a dog that does everyone's barking.", "This is a fitting place for a dog.", and "A dog's job is guarding their master but she's only good enough to stay in the horse stable to guard horses.". One of the maids last words were, "It's not us being mean, it's you being a dog."
[Bai Yuan don't listen to their nonsense. They are just jealous of you.]
Bai Yuan is very thankful for having system with her when she is going through the same thing again. However, in her case, she was treated much much better than this.
Another maid bringing a bowl full of hot water splash the water towards Bai Yuan while she was being absent minded. She snickers, "A dog shouldn't try to get ahead of the master. A dog should just stay ordinant like it always has."
The water wasn't just clean hot water, it was water that has the smell of rotten vegetables with unusual garbages still inside. Bai Yuan should call herself lucky if she didn't happen move a step back all the water would've spilled all over her. She would've gotten burn to the point of having burn scars all over her body. Regardless, Bai Yuan still got a bit wet from the spilling of hot water.
With the rune's power, Bai Yuan possesses memories that Wan Changying still remembers and kept in her heart so from there she just voices those unspoken words out during the meeting. What she
wasn't expecting was that even without someone to order the maids around, they treat the young miss as a dog. She understands 1/5 of the reason leading the real Wan Changying into her current condition now. If she changes the current treatment of Wan Chingying, something unexpected might happen.
"Dog is where is your pride back at the council meeting go. Are you so afraid that your dog bones are quivering." One of the three maids implies with a snort while the other two laugh along.
Bai Yuan can only endure and not flare out, Wan Changying has a nice and forgiving character. That's the reason why people can bully her and get away without paying a single cent. Always forgiving, being optimistic, and elegant is what she has to become now that she is Wan Changying. Being merciful she can be, very merciful until people become tired of her being merciful.
Bai Yuan didn't do anything, she only clenches her teeth and had her nails dig deep into her hands to let the anger out. She didn't reply back or retaliate making the three maids bored and left her alone in her in the horse stable with the horses.
