Yan Yile was stunned, as were the other people present.
Daohua seldom lost her temper like this, let alone hit someone personally. At that moment, everyone present felt her rage.
Xiao Yeyang was also somewhat surprised. Seeing Daohua so annoyed and thinking about how his daughter nearly fell into the pond just now, his gaze towards Yan Yile suddenly became sharp.
Feeling his intense stare, Yan Yile shivered, but she quickly recovered and tears welled up in her eyes: "Big sister, it’s my fault. I shouldn’t have brought Daozi and the others to the Lotus Pond. Please punish me."
Having fallen into the pond just now, Yan Yile was entirely drenched. Combined with her tearful appearance, she looked indescribably pitiful.
Unfortunately, no one cared about her in that state.
Daomang, the little girl, was still crying bitterly, causing Daohua’s heart to ache repeatedly, leaving her no mind to pay attention to Yan Yile. She quietly comforted her daughter and carried her back to the main courtyard.
Xiao Yeyang took Daomiao from the maid’s arms and also took Daozi, who seemed somewhat frightened, and followed Daohua and her daughter.
As the family-of-five left, the servants also dispersed. In just a moment, only Yan Yile and her two maids remained in front of the Lotus Pond.
The two maids quickly supported Yan Yile: "Miss, let’s hurry back and change your clothes."
Yan Yile let her maids help her leave with a pale face, a trace of regret flashing in her eyes. Thinking about Yan Yiyi’s almost threatening demeanor just now, anxiety appeared on her face.
Did big sister notice something?
No, that’s not possible. She went near the three children intentionally, and even second sister didn’t perceive anything amiss, right?
Today’s incident could at worst be her fault for bringing the three children to the Lotus Pond, but the subsequent events were just an accident. She wasn’t only faultless in the matter but also contributed by trying to rescue Daomang.
Having plunged into Lotus Pond in a self-sacrificing attempt to save Daomang proved it.
With these thoughts, Yan Yile’s face looked a bit better, but still shivering from being soaked all over.
...
"My child, what happened to you?"
When Yan Yile returned to the guest residence, the Sun Family, seeing her completely wet, exclaimed in shock.
Yan Yihuan, who came out a step behind, seeing her sister in such a state, felt a sudden dread and hurriedly stepped forward, anxiously asking, "What happened?"
Yan Yile glanced at her but didn’t speak; instead, the two maids beside her spoke up.
"The young lady fell into the water while trying to save the Princess Consort’s eldest daughter."
"Unfortunately, despite the good intentions, the Princess Consort blamed our young lady and hit her in public."
"Enough!"
Yan Yile interrupted the two maids and, looking at Yan Yihuan’s whitening face, said with a frown, "I need to change my clothes first."
The Sun Family, not fully understanding, hurriedly followed her into the room.
Yan Yihuan didn’t follow. She grabbed one maid and said coldly, "Tell me clearly what happened, what exactly went on?"
The maid, seeing Yan Yihuan’s frosty face, didn’t dare to conceal anything and quickly recounted the events.
After hearing everything, Yan Yihuan couldn’t help but sway slightly.
She knew her sister who had grown up together from childhood all too well; the incident in front of Lotus Pond was definitely not an accident.
What was Yile trying to do?
Falling into the water holding Daomang, and elder brother-in-law just happened to come back...
Yan Yihuan closed her eyes in anguish, never expecting Yile to harbor such intentions!
The elder sister slapped Yile in public...
