Perhaps it was due to Imperial Advisor Ji's orders, but not long after he left, the servants of Ji Manor started to move about, as they arranged the Ji Manor and Ji Yunkai's courtyard with lanterns and decorations.

She had never seen a wedding that was as sloppy as this one was. The Ji Family still had the nerve to say that she was a descendant in the ancestry book and was a member of a great family. Such a great family. How should one look at the affairs of this "great family"?

A good marriage was turned into a joke by the Ji Family. It was fortunate that Prince Yanbei was unconscious; otherwise, even if he woke up, he would probably faint from anger.

But even if time was short, her wedding dress should still be new, and not the used one in front of her. It was unknown who wore it before, right?

Did they really think she was so easy to bully?

Ji Yunkai raised her eyes, and glanced at the maidservant holding the wedding dress. She was acquainted with these people and this maidservant was one of Madam Ji's most trusted aides. She was greatly valued by Madam Ji. Many things that Madam Ji could not do out in the open were left for them to do in the dark.

"'Miss Yunkai'? Is my name something that you can call?" Ji Yunkai chose not to deal with the wedding dress, and instead she chose to start with how she was addressed.

It was not that no one had asked about it before, but Madam Ji's answer was almost perfect. Madam Ji had said that her mother had given Yunkai this name, so she liked it when people called her "Miss Yunkai".

Being called a cousin of hers who lived in the Ji Family was one of her favorite insults that had "nothing" to do with Madam Ji. Just thinking about it made her feel stifled. It was a pity that no matter how sullen the original owner was, she could only endure it. If she dared to retort, tears would immediately fall from Madam Ji's eyes, making her look pitiful, as if she had been the miserably bullied one.

"Miss Yunkai, is something wrong?" The maidservant pretended to be stupid as she looked at Ji Yunkai with a puzzled expression. When she saw the black spots on her right cheek, she frowned in disdain.

"Call me 'Miss Yunkai' again, and I'll break your legs." Ji Yunkai was too lazy to bother with the maidservant, so she directly stated her bottom line.

If Madam Ji had not gone too far, she would not have bothered to make a fuss about it. But Madam Ji had taken an inch from her side, treating her disregard as a compromise.

She did not care that the wedding preparations were so rushed, nor that the dowry was too little, but she could not ignore that the wedding dress was old. How could she face others?

Even if she, Ji Yunkai did not care and was not afraid of the rumors, she would still lose her face, right?

If Madam Ji gave and forced her to wear a wedding dress that had been used for who knows how many years, then where would her face be?

"Miss Yunkai, you... what happened to you?" Like master, like servant. Madam Ji's maidservant looked pitiful as well, but kept calling her "Miss Yunkai".

"Unrepentant thing." Ji Yunkai's face turned cold. She stood up, raised her leg and kicked at the maidservant's abdomen.

With a *puh* sound, the maidservant hugged her lower abdomen in pain, and the wedding dress in her hands fell to the floor.

"Miss Yunkai, what happened to you?" The maidservant was sweating profusely from the pain.

"Call me that again." Ji Yunkai kicked her again, directly knocking her down to the ground.

"Ah! It hurts, it hurts...." The maidservant hugged her stomach and rolled around on the floor.

"Take another look at me and I'll dig out your eyes." Ji Yunkai admitted that she was causing trouble for no reason, what's wrong with that? If Madam Ji had the ability, she would have people beat her up. Just like before, would she be confined and would not be given food or drink?

The original owner was afraid of Madam Ji. With Madam Ji appearing, the original owner would be scolded. Furthermore, Madam Ji would lock her up in the courtyard. If she did not give her food or drink, she would starve for two to three days.

After a few times of this, no matter how bold the original owner was, she would still be tamed by Madam Ji.

Fortunately, the original owner had a master; otherwise, under the perverted education of Imperial Advisor Ji and Madam Ji, there was a high chance that the original owner would grow crazy.

"Miss Yunkai, you don't scare us." The maidservants that Madam Ji had sent out were not afraid of death. Not only did they still look at Ji Yunkai with fear in their eyes, the way they addressed her did not change at all.

*Clap, clap!* Ji Yunkai clapped lightly: "You guys are quite bold. You know that I won't steal your eyes right?" Indeed, she could not do such a bloody thing.

Ji Yunkai said coldly: "There's no need to dig your eyes out. I also have a thousand ways to make you beg for forgiveness." These four maidservants had followed Madam Ji to bully the original owner. Right now, she could not find fault with Madam Ji. First, she needed to deal with these thugs to comfort the soul of the original owner in heaven.

"Are you using Madam Ji to threaten me? You guys sure are bold!" Did they really think that she was still that Ji Yunkai who would be scared just by hearing Madam Ji's name?

Ji Yunkai stood in front of them first, "After offending me, you want to leave? You guys are too naive."

"M-Miss… Yunkai…."

*Pah!* Before the maidservant could finish speaking, Ji Yunkai slapped her across the face, "Don't let me hear 'Miss Yunkai' again."

"Yes, it's 'Miss'. We know we were wrong. Miss, please let us go." The four maidservants cried for mercy as if they were frightened, but Ji Yunkai could see the unhappiness and hatred in their eyes.

It was clear that the four of them planned to first submit and leave, and then go find Madam Ji to have her take care of Ji Yunkai.

But, would Ji Yunkai let them?
