“Grape! I didn’t lose, and you didn’t win! Don’t forget who we’ve bet on paying the compensation. The Xiao family hasn’t paid the compensation yet, and the yin family hasn’t paid for them either, so our bet isn’t over yet!” Leng ruoxue chuckled.
“But miss! It’s already been three days. ” Grape reminded.
“Yes, I asked them to send the compensation and the money to buy small fire’s saliva within three days, but they refused to send it over, so we can’t do anything about it! So, our bet isn’t over yet. ” Leng ruoxue laughed.
“Miss, do you mean that the bet will continue?” Grape asked with some uncertainty.
“Why not continue? They’ll definitely send the compensation over, it’s just a matter of a few days. ” Leng ruoxue said confidently. She could even guess the main reason why the other party was not willing to follow her instructions and send the compensation over. It was because Xiao Lan’s injuries were showing signs of improvement.
The truth was just as Leng ruoxue had guessed. Ever since Leng ruoxue had stated her conditions, Xiao Hua and his wife had discussed for a long time. They had even looked for Yin ping a few times, hoping that the other party would compensate them. However, Yin ping had not relented. At the same time, Xiao Lan’s injuries had also shown signs of improvement, so they had not thought much of it.
In three days, the swelling on Xiao Lan’s face had subsided, and the festering parts had begun to form knots. Her appearance was slowly recovering. Seeing this, Xiao Hua and his wife were even more relieved. As for Xiao Lin’s warning and warning, they had completely forgotten about it.
In the room, Xiao LAN sat in front of the dressing table! Looking at her restored appearance in the mirror, she was very happy. That damned snake and woman had caused him to suffer for so many days. He would definitely not let them off! Thinking of this, she summoned the maidservant and whispered something in her ear before the maidservant left the room.
“LAN ‘er! What did you just say to the maidservant?” Sitting by the bed and looking at her daughter, Ru Ping asked curiously.
“It’s nothing! I told her to send people to help me keep an eye on the three people from Bright Stream garden. If there’s a situation, immediately come and tell me! Hmph! They caused me to suffer for so many days. If I let them go, would I still be Xiao LAN?” Xiao LAN said viciously, a sinister look flashing across her beautiful face.
“LAN ‘er! After all, this is the yin family. Because of you, we have already made them unhappy. If we cause any trouble at this time, it will not be good for us. ” Ru Ping reminded.
“Mother! I know what to do! You still don’t trust me!” Xiao LAN said in a spoiled manner.
“Of course, I’m at ease with LAN ‘er! “But your father …” Ru Ping stopped halfway, for she suddenly remembered that LAN ‘er had just recovered from her injury. She didn’t want to tell her about this, or she would be annoyed.
“Mother! Are you trying to say that aunt and uncle are a little dissatisfied with you?” Xiao LAN said. Although she had been in a daze most of the time these past few days, she could still hear some of their conversations.
“Yup! Your father went to look for Xiao Lin many times, but Xiao Lin didn’t see him, and Yin ping didn’t either! They had really gone too far! Is this what an elder sister and brother-in-law should do?” As soon as she thought of the cold treatment she had received in the past two days, Ru Ping had a stomach full of complaints. Originally, it was fine if her daughter didn’t know. She didn’t intend to say it now to annoy her daughter. But since her daughter knew, there was no harm in saying it.
“Mother! You shouldn’t be complaining. We should be thinking about how to make aunt and uncle treat us the same as before. After all, we can’t do without their support. ” In contrast to Ru Ping’s anger, Xiao LAN was still very calm. She knew very well that without the support of her aunt and uncle, her family would never have the status they had today. Therefore, she was not willing to give up such a backer no matter what. Who asked her to still think about the position of the future mistress of the yin family?
“Of course I know that! But they don’t even want to see us now. ” Ru Ping couldn’t help but Mutter.
“That’s why we should think about how we can salvage the situation! Mother! Come with me to visit aunt and uncle later! My injuries have healed, so I have to thank them properly. They won’t reject this reason again, right?” Xiao LAN said with a smile.
“Mm! What LAN ‘er said makes sense!” Ru Ping nodded. Even if Xiao Lin and Yin ping were dissatisfied with the couple, they wouldn’t refuse to see LAN ‘er. After all, LAN’ er had been doted on since she was a child. With LAN ‘er around, their relationship would definitely improve, she thought confidently.
After Xiao LAN had dressed herself up in front of the dressing table, she took Ru Ping to the courtyard where Yin ping and Xiao Lin lived.
As soon as they arrived at the courtyard, they heard a faint laughter coming from inside. Xiao LAN immediately felt a little upset because she was very familiar with this voice. It was her cousin’s voice. She was laughing so happily now, so she must be chatting with her aunt! In the past, when she chatted with her aunt, she would also smile very happily. However, she didn’t know when it started, but their relationship became colder and colder. Although she kept trying to please her aunt, her aunt was always indifferent to her. This made her puzzled no matter how much she thought about it. She really couldn’t remember what she did wrong to anger her aunt.
After entering the courtyard, Xiao LAN saw her aunt sitting on a stone chair in the garden! Yin Xuan was talking to her in a very low voice, and she even laughed happily from time to time. Immediately, jealousy welled up in her heart. Why was Yin Xuan so happy? All of this should have been hers! However, it was taken away by Yin Xuan! No! She had to regain her position in her aunt’s heart. She couldn’t let Yin Xuan be so proud.
After she made up her mind, she quickly walked in front of Xiao Lin and bowed respectfully. She then slowly said,””Aunt! LAN ‘er is here to visit you. ”
“LAN ‘er is better? He should be resting in his room, how can he run around!” Xiao Lin looked at Xiao LAN and said with a faint smile. In fact, what she meant was, don’t run around the yin family and don’t come to her place. However, she knew that Xiao LAN would definitely not understand the hidden meaning of her words. Even if she did, she would pretend not to know.
