Chapter 635 - Heaven and Earth
Chapter 635: Heaven and Earth
After Dong Xiyun finished speaking, she looked at her sister with a gentle smile.
How foolish was she before that she wanted to compete with her silly sister?
The difference between them was heaven and earth. In the future, she would be a high and mighty consort and might even become an Empress. What about this silly sister of hers?
She would forever be trampled under her feet.
When Dong Yiyun heard her sister’s words, she looked flustered. “Eldest Sister, you can’t. I don’t have that intention…”
She did in the past.
However… Brother Xie probably did not even remember her.
Moreover, now that her eldest sister was going to marry into the royal family, and the Crown Prince and the Fourth Prince were not on good terms, if she were to get involved with the Xie family, would the two sisters not become even more jealous of each other in the future?
Forget it.
She still felt significant disappointment inside. However, she had already tried her best to deal with her emotions. She was not considered old yet, so she could wait a little longer…
She will decide that in the future!
However, the more Dong Yiyun did not want to do something, the more interested Dong Xiyun became.
At that moment, she did not say much and turned around to look for Master Dong.
She completely exposed the fact that Dong Yiyun was infatuated with Xie Pinggang!
When Master Dong went to Dong Yiyun in a huff, the little girl was dumbfounded. “Father, I-I didn’t secretly meet him…”
When the stepmother from the Dong family saw that, she hurriedly said, “What can’t you talk to your child properly? Yi’er is usually very obedient. When she goes out, she’s accompanied by a maidservant and the granny. How would she do such a thing? What on Earth is going on?!”
“Are you still saying that you didn’t? Your Sister already told me that. Previously at the Zhou family’s banquet, you were even flirting with that brat!” Master Dong said in an upset manner.
When Dong Yiyun heard that, she was angry and ashamed. “Father, I think that Master Xie is a good person! Previously, when I went out, I was almost kidnapped by a man. It was all thanks to him that I was fine. However, I’ve never crossed the line. That Master Xie doesn’t remember me at all! Sister doesn’t know anything. She’s spouting nonsense!”
Master Dong was skeptical.
This second daughter was a little outgoing, but she should not be a frivolous person.
“Yi’er, do you think that First Young Master Xie is great?” Dong family’s stepmother asked.
“Why? Are you still going to betroth your daughter to that reckless man who kills without batting an eye? That guy even bullied Xi’er before!” Master Dong said unhappily when he heard that.
“Master, the Xie family is now the new aristocrat. How many things have been spread about that Young Master Xie in the capital this year? Was there slander at all? It can be seen that this person should not be bad. I think there must’ve been some misunderstanding in the past,” the stepmother quickly said.
Who would she believe among the two stepdaughters? Naturally, she would believe the one she raised.
The second daughter had a pure mind, but that eldest daughter…
Putting everything else aside, just the fact that she had made her best friend her stepmother, it was obvious that her intentions were ill!
Master Dong was silent for a moment.
Everything else aside, it was the truth that the Xie family was the new aristocrat.
“Since Yi’er thinks he’s not bad, why don’t we send someone to probe for information? That child of the Xie family is a little old, but I heard that he doesn’t have anyone by his side. If this happens, it should be a good marriage,” the stepmother added.
Dong Yiyun was a little hesitant. “Mother, but Eldest Sister and the Fourth Prince… I can’t…”
“Don’t worry.” The stepmother patted her daughter’s hand.
Their family had been forcefully dragged into the trouble by the Meng family.
If the second daughter married into the Xie family, it would also be a declaration to the Emperor.
What was so great about taking sides? Now that the Emperor was in good health and the Crown Prince did not show any signs of being deposed, would his daughter have to cower in fear and not dare to inquire about the marriage?
Master Dong thought about it carefully. It was not good to be two-timing.
However, Xie Pinggang had saved the second daughter’s life. If it really happened, he could use that to shut the outsiders up.
In the future, no matter who ascended the throne, the Dong family would have a way out.
