Mrs. Shangshu was so angry that she couldn't sleep well all night. At dawn, she finally thought of a way to torment Xi Chuyu.

Early in the morning, I took Xi Chuyu to Hanlianyuan.

"Miss, the madam and the second lady are here."

The maid serving in the courtyard spoke to Xi Qingyan who was dressing up.

Xi Qingyan's figure did not move.

Mrs. Shangshu and Xi Chuyu were exhausted yesterday and came here early this morning. Needless to say, nothing good happened.

"I know, let them in."

The soldiers came to cover up the water and earth.

She wanted to see what kind of monsters this mother and daughter could do!

"Qingyan, what happened yesterday was because of my mother's fault. You have just returned to the house and it is natural for our family to be harmonious."

As soon as Mrs. Shangshu came up, she held Xi Qingyan's hand and apologized.

"Today, my mother specially brought your sister to apologize to you. For the sake of us being a family, you should stop worrying about her!"

After Mrs. Shangshu finished speaking, she pulled her daughter aside, and Xi Chuyu reluctantly said sorry.

"sorry."

If she had to punish this ugly Xi Qingyan, she would not apologize!

Xi Qingyan admired Mrs. Shangshu's good acting skills. Yesterday, she scolded Mrs. Shangshu so much that she could still pretend to care about the younger generation and talk to her this morning.

"What happened yesterday is in the past. Madam, there is no need to hold it in your heart. My sister has also apologized. I will be generous and not pursue it any further."

Xi Qingyan wrote lightly.

Anyway, she, Xi Qingyan, was the winner yesterday.

Not only was it a blow to Mrs. Shangshu and Xi Chuyu's mother and son, but they also got a big house like Hanliyuan for free.

She doesn't suffer.

"..."

Mrs. Shangshu almost broke her own teeth when she listened to Xi Qingyan's magnanimous words.

Xi Qingyan obviously got the advantage and behaved well, but now she is pretending to be an elephant!

"Madam, why did you come to my place today?"

Xi Qingyan felt much relieved when she saw Mrs. Shangshu's deflated appearance.

"Qingyan, you see it's getting colder today and you only have a few clothes. Mother is worried that your clothes will be thin and you will catch the cold, so she specially sent you some new clothes to keep out the cold and warm."

Mrs. Shangshu explained with a smile.

Then he waved behind him, and a group of serving maids came in holding clothes.

In fact, it's not that Xi Qingyan has no clothes to wear, it's just that the clothes in the wardrobe that belonged to the original owner really don't fit her style.

What's more, although the clothes on her body look inconspicuous, they are made of the best materials. It's just that Mrs. Shangshu and Xi Chuyu don't know the goods and can't tell whether they are good or bad.

"Sister, there will be a palace banquet in a few days. You are a member of our Shangshu Mansion. You must dress appropriately when the time comes and you can't embarrass dad."

Seeing Xi Qingyan trying to refuse, Xi Chuyu quickly stepped forward and took her other hand.

The mother and daughter brought Cheng Qingyao to the maid holding clothes.

"My mother and I specially selected these clothes for you, sister. Look at how luxurious they are. They are very suitable for your status as the eldest lady of the Shangshu Mansion."

"Yes, Qingyan, these are your sister's sincere apologies, just accept them."

Mrs. Shangshu and Xi Chuyu sang in harmony, and the combination was a perfect match.

"Thank you madam and sister for your kindness. I'm just worried about what to wear."

Xi Qingyan deliberately pretended to like it, and reached out to pick up the clothes and admire them. These clothes were considered to be excellent in terms of embroidery and patterns, and even the texture of the cloth was excellent.

It's just that the clothes were sprinkled with medicinal powder.

It is a colorless and odorless powder that can make people feel unbearable itching.

This powder comes from the Valley of Divine Medicine.

In the years since Xi Qingyan became the owner of the Valley, in order to maintain the livelihood of the Divine Doctor Valley, she has sold the medicines she developed to the outside world.

At first, she was just doing it for fun.

Unexpectedly, those people flocked to the name of the Valley of Divine Doctors, so the medicine from her hands was worth thousands of gold, and the supply exceeded the demand.

The medicinal powder on this clothes requires at least five hundred taels of silver.

Mrs. Shangshu used her medicine to deal with her, and she really spent a lot of money!

Xi Qingyan sneered in her heart, looked around the clothes, then leaned over and smelled it, deliberately surprised.

"Madam, why do I feel that there is a faint smell on these clothes?"

These words made Xi Chuyu visibly panicked.

The maid who was sent to buy the powder came back and said it had no taste!

"Qingyan, you have a smart nose. In fact, my mother had these clothes scented beforehand. If you wear them without scent, it would really be incompatible with your status as the official daughter of a minister!"

Mrs. Shangshu didn't want Xi Chuyu to show off her flaws, so she looked aside and spoke sincerely.

"Where is the maid serving the eldest lady? Why don't you put these clothes on for the eldest lady?"

The little maids in Hanliyuan quickly wanted to change Xi Qingyan's clothes.

She stretched out her hand to stop the others.

"No, I have been living outside these years, and I have long been accustomed to dressing and eating alone!"

Xi Qingyan had a plan in her mind, stretched out her hand to put on the clothes that the maid was holding, and then deliberately walked to the dressing table, pretending to admire it.

"Madam has good taste, and I think this dress is good."

Xi Qingyan accepted all the brocade clothes in the maid's hands. Although Madam Shangshu came here with bad intentions, these clothes were much more pleasing to the eye than those Xi Qingyan had worn before.

"Sister, I accept your apology."

"Yes...yes..."

Xi Chuyu had been waiting anxiously for Xi Qingyan to feel itchy all over after getting dressed, but she waited and waited, but she didn't wait until Xi Qingyan felt itchy all over!

Seeing Xi Qingyan wearing the clothes originally prepared for her, Xi Chuyu felt itchy with hatred.

What exactly went wrong?

Could it be that the maid who went to buy medicine deceived her?

Xi Chuyu had thousands of doubts in her heart, but Xi Qingyan didn't care what Xi Chuyu thought because she saw a golden hairpin on Mrs. Shangshu's head.

Xi Qingyan learned from the memory of the original owner that it was the most cherished object of the late Madam Shangshu. This golden hairpin was a dowry prepared by Xi Qingyan's grandfather for his daughter who married into the Shangshu Mansion.

Xi Chuyu’s mother occupied the position of the first lady’s wife and also took the first lady’s dowry!

Nowadays, it is worn on the head in a swaggering way!

Xi Qingyan suppressed the disgust in her heart and continued to look at herself in front of the dressing mirror, as if she spoke inadvertently.

"The clothes Madam gave me are indeed good, but the only drawback is that they are too luxurious, and I only have this hairpin made of dead wood on my head."

Xi Qingyan sighed with emotion, not forgetting to take a look at Mrs. Shangshu's hair.

"Qingyan, it is indeed mother's negligence. Look, I happen to have a gold hairpin here, which is most suitable for your clothes!"

Mrs. Shangshu is more calm than Xi Chuyu.

She has seen the methods of Miracle Doctor Valley, so she believes that the medicinal powder she spent a lot of money to buy must not be fake!

In her opinion, it was just that the powder had not taken effect yet.

Mrs. Shangshu smiled and put the hairpin on Xi Qingyan's head.

"Mom, you are too partial to my sister! You are usually reluctant to wear such a good hairpin, but today you give it to my sister as soon as she asks!"

Xi Chuyu was already upset that the medicinal powder was ineffective.

Now I see Xi Qingyan getting a gold hairpin for nothing, and I am very dissatisfied.

"Your sister is the eldest lady of the Shangshu Mansion. Any gold hairpin will match her! These young faces have been suffering outside, how come you, a sister, don't know how to feel sorry for your sister?"

Mrs. Shangshu scolded Xi Chuyu.

If you don't know what happened to Xi Qingyan, you will definitely think that Mrs. Shangshu in front of you is a kind-hearted and loving mother.

She treats her stepdaughter better than her own biological daughter.

"It's just a gold hairpin. If my sister likes it, there are many good things in my mother's dowry. I will also give you a gold hairpin someday."

Xi Qingyan took off the gold hairpin on her head and spoke openly.

Then he suddenly looked at the gold hairpin in his hand deliberately and pretended to be confused and spoke.
