Chapter 963: Chapter 816, Secret Meeting Scandal_3

Han Xinran looked at Han Xinman with a cold expression, "I certainly do not have a sister like her."

Madam Han frowned at Han Xinran, "Enough, why are you getting more and more worked up? She is your own sister, how could you say such hurtful things?"

Han Xinran looked incredulously at Madam Han, "Mother, even now, you still take her side? Have you ever considered my situation? I took our family’s younger sister to the banquet, only for my sister-in-law to cause a scandal by secretly meeting with another man."

"That’s not all, the other man was a cousin, and it happened at my own sister’s residence. Tell me, how will my in-laws view me now? Do you still want me to have a good life at my in-laws’ place?"

Madam Han was left speechless by the question.

Han Xinman, with an unconcerned look, said, "Listen, second younger sister, you should stop yelling at our mother. It takes two to clap, and if the Fourth Miss Yan was unwilling, how could she have ended up in our cousin’s arms?"

Han Xinran slowly calmed down and looked coldly at Han Xinman, "Did you arrange what happened last night?"

Han Xinman quickly retorted, "I don’t have such great influence to make the Fourth Miss Yan listen to me. Ultimately, she fancied our cousin and intentionally seduced him."

Han Xinran, "Maybe you didn’t instigate the affair between our younger cousin and Fourth Miss Yan, but you certainly added fuel to the fire. I want to ask you, why? Is it because you are jealous that I am having a better life at my in-laws’ than you?"

Han Xinran didn’t give Han Xinman a chance to retort, "Your jealousy isn’t enough with inciting trouble in front of grandma and mother, you even dragged uncle’s family into this."

"Do you not realize how much uncle cares about his reputation? To stoop so low to scheme against our younger cousin!"

Han Xinman suddenly stood up, "Like I said, this has nothing to do with me. It was unforeseen that our cousin would go to the rockery and not reject Fourth Miss Yan’s advances."

"As for them being seen later by others, I had no time to stop it and could only ask my mother-in-law to use her influence to suppress this matter."

"Speaking of which, I am still furious about it. It’s clearly your sister-in-law who lacks propriety, yet I’m the one who ends up embarrassed alongside her. Now you’re even playing the victim in front of our mother!"

Han Xinran coldly looked at Han Xinman, no longer wishing to argue.

Her sister, whenever she did something wrong, would always say things grand-sounding enough to muddle right and wrong for her defense.

Madam Han noticed the coldness in her younger daughter’s eyes, worried that it might genuinely hurt their sisterly bond, and quickly intervened, "Alright, what’s the use of arguing over this now? We should discuss how to resolve this matter."

Han Xinran scoffed, "How to resolve it? Mother, how would you like to resolve it? Is this something we can settle just amongst ourselves? Do you really think that your daughter has the final say in the Yan Family?"

Han Xinman spoke up, "What else can we do? Things have come this far. For the sake of the Yan family’s young ladies’ reputations, we have no choice but to sacrifice our cousin, making him marry the Fourth Miss Yan."

Madam Han nodded in agreement, "It seems that is our only option."

Han Xinran’s face couldn’t help but show a mocking expression, "If the Yan family’s daughters are so distasteful, why bother scheming at all?"

Having calmed down, she began to understand why her younger cousin had not rejected the advances.

Her grand uncle, though respected among scholars, held little political power.

Since the cousin was neither the eldest, in position to inherit the family business, nor the most favored youngest son, he needed to find a powerful family to marry into.

The Yan family, with a daughter married into the Prince Residence and successful sons, consequently caught the eye of her cousin.

Yet, had he forgotten that the fourth daughter wasn’t born to the main wife?

Moreover, recently, both my father and husband had notably reduced their contact with my cousin; couldn’t he see that the Yan Family didn’t want to be related to him?

What benefit could possibly come from a marriage schemed like this?

Han Xinman saw the calculations of the Second Master of the House as well, and chose to give him a hand.

Of course, she indeed despised seeing her younger sister living a better life than hers especially when her younger sister banked on her in-laws’ power to embarrass her multiple times, something she wouldn’t gently let pass.

However, having always been dominated by her younger sister, she was genuinely taken aback this time.

Perhaps it was her experience with the powerful in the Yan Family that lent her that formidable air in her anger, which was quite intimidating.

Thinking this, Han Xinman felt upset again.

The Yan Family was but a third-ranked official family, yet because a daughter had married into the Prince Residence, their household appeared even more distinguished than that of the Earl Residence.

As far as she knew, even Grand Secretary Yang and Governor Wu had visited the Yan Family during New Year’s.
