Chapter 377 - 239: Wife Control
Ran Yan slightly nodded her head, and since Madam Xing spoke so earnestly, she was not one to ignore good advice. Thus, she said, "I will take your words to heart and think them over carefully."
Madam Xing actually did not understand, what was there left to consider? If she disliked Sang Chen for being young and not steady enough, she could simply dismiss the thought. Yet, Xiao Song was a man of measured actions and great responsibility, trouble-free both inside and out. What was there to be dissatisfied with?
Ultimately, compared to the former Lady Zheng, Madam Xing was much less harsh on Ran Yan, showing more indulgence and less willingness to press her on this matter.
Having arranged to visit his residence today, Ran Yan informed Madam Luo, took her bodyguard and maid, and went to the Xiao family’s house.
Sitting in the carriage, Ran Yan couldn’t help but sigh.
Wan Lu found it strange, for her lady seldom sighed, and thinking about it, she asked, "My lady, what’s wrong? Is something troubling you?"
Ran Yan slightly furrowed her brow and said, "I’ve tried to see my brother twice, but he won’t even meet me. No matter how much I talk at the door, he doesn’t respond at all."
Ran Yan was tempted to kick the door in and confront him face to face to clear things up, but she feared that it would make Ran Yunsheng feel even more embarrassed, so she refrained. However, dragging the issue on was not a solution.
"Perhaps you should ask Mr. Xiao for advice, isn’t he full of ideas?" Wan Lu suggested.
Ran Yan felt a slight stir in her heart; perhaps Xiao Song could offer some good advice.
Seeing that the topic had come to a pause, Ge Lan pulled out some paper and wrote: My lady, Lady Luo plans to send the eighteenth lady back to Suzhou soon; we should prepare early.
Ran Yan glanced at the paper, her gaze slightly hardened, "Are you worried that the Gao family will use my autopsy in Suzhou against us?"
