After three years of slavery, the entire mansion begged me for forgiveness

The next morning.

Qiao Nian washed up and sat down for breakfast.

Ningshuang came forward to serve, with a bright smile on her lips from beginning to end.

Qiao Nian couldn't help asking her, "What are you so happy about?"

"Nothing!" Ningshuang denied it, but glanced at the maids standing outside, and then lowered her voice, "Xiao Cui hasn't eaten anything since last night."

As expected.

Qiao Nian raised her eyebrows slightly, "You don't give her food?"

"How could it be! I sent her all the good things!"

But, because Ningshuang sent too good things, Xiao Cui didn't dare to eat!

Qiao Nian sneered and didn't answer.

But Ningshuang's face darkened instead, "Miss, do you really think that Xiao Cui is your biological sister?"

Regarding what the second lady said yesterday, she felt it was strange no matter how she thought about it.

Qiao Nian shrugged, "It doesn't matter, someone will investigate this matter."

Madam Lin will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly.

But no matter whether Xiao Cui is or not, she will not let Xiao Cui have an easy time.

Do you think that you can be safe and sound by holding the identity of her biological sister?

Then she will see whether her biological sister can sleep peacefully in this Fanghe Garden!

However, after listening to Qiao Nian's answer, Ning Shuang was a little disappointed, "I thought that the young lady got up so early today just to investigate this matter!"

Qiao Nian shook her head, "We have to go somewhere else today."

Qiao Nian is going to inspect the shop given by the imperial concubine today.

That is the most outstanding ready-made clothing shop in the capital, and there are often some styles and materials that cannot be bought elsewhere.

Of course, the price is also extremely high.

Qiao Nian came today to let the shopkeepers and waiters in the shop recognize her as the new master, and secondly, she also wanted to see how much profit the shop can make in a year.

After all, sometimes money is also a kind of confidence.

However, Qiao Nian came at an unfortunate time, and someone was making trouble in the shop.

The shop was surrounded by people who were watching the excitement, and many clothes and fabrics in the shop were thrown on the ground.

The shopkeeper and the waiter were not seen, but the sound of quarrels came from the second floor.

Qiao Nian frowned slightly, and walked towards the second floor regardless of Ning Shuang's dissuasion.

On the second floor, a woman in luxurious clothes was sitting on a chair with her back to Qiao Nian.

A group of people were kneeling in front of her.

They should be the shopkeeper and the waiter of this shop.

And next to the woman were two men dressed as servants.

But Qiao Nian could see at a glance that the two men were wearing palace boots.

The shopkeeper in the lead had a sad face and a wound on his face, "Miss, it's useless even if you beat us to death. It's not that we don't want to sell it to you, but this Tiancan silk skirt has been booked by someone. If we sell it, wouldn't that mean we have no integrity? The most important thing in doing business is integrity!"

"Integrity?"

The woman sneered and said, "I think life is the most important. What do you think?"

For a moment, the shopkeeper was speechless.

Because it was obvious that he also saw that the boots worn by the two servants were from the palace!

Unexpectedly, Qiao Nian suddenly spoke, "Life is important, but there is an old saying: Honesty is the way of heaven, and thinking about honesty is the way of man. If there is no integrity, how can you be a human being?"

Her voice attracted everyone's attention.

Even the woman who was sitting with her back to her turned her head and looked over.

Her eyebrows and eyes were like paintings, but they revealed a sense of arrogance and disdain, as if everyone in her eyes was an ant!

Qiao Nian clenched her fists tightly with her hands hanging down at her side.

Because the woman in front of her was none other than the culprit who sent her to the laundry department and ordered the maids there to humiliate her for three years!

Princess Shu Yuan!

But it seemed that Princess Shu Yuan didn't remember her at all.

She looked Qiao Nian up and down, and then asked, "Are you calling me a non-human?"

Qiao Nian thought, since she didn't recognize her, there was no need for her to recognize her!

So, he curled his lips and smiled softly, "Miss, don't be angry, I don't mean that, it's just that when we do business, honesty is the foundation."

Princess Shu Yuan's eyes were still full of disdain, and she raised her eyebrows and asked, "Who are you?"

Qiao Nian then walked towards Princess Shu Yuan, took out the land deed given by the imperial concubine yesterday from her sleeve, and handed it to the shopkeeper, "I just bought this shop yesterday, so I am the owner of this shop."

The shopkeeper looked at the land deed. Although he didn't understand why the land deed was in Qiao Nian's hands, since Qiao Nian stood up at this moment, he naturally wouldn't get close to him. He just nodded repeatedly, "Yes, this is our owner!"

"That's perfect!" Princess Shu Yuan smiled coldly, "Take out that Tiancan silk dress!"

Qiao Nian glanced at the shopkeeper, who hurriedly said, "The dress was ordered half a year ago." While speaking, he asked the waiter next to him to hand over a book.

Qiao Nian opened the book and saw that the person who ordered it was Xiao Heng.

Her eyes darkened, and she closed the book immediately, then smiled at Princess Shu Yuan and said, "Miss, this dress has indeed been ordered. It's useless for you to embarrass us here. Why don't you go and discuss with the person who ordered it and give it to you?"

Princess Shu Yuan raised her eyebrows, "Who ordered it?"

"General Xiao, Xiao Heng." Qiao Nian didn't think of hiding anything.

She even hoped that Princess Shu Yuan would cause trouble for Xiao Heng.

She thought of what King Ming had said before, that Princess Shu Yuan liked Xiao Heng, so she added, "I heard that General Xiao and the daughter of the Lin family are engaged. This skirt is probably a gift from General Xiao to Miss Lin Yuanlin."

Hearing this, Princess Shu Yuan's face obviously darkened, and she snorted coldly, "I don't care who it's for, as long as I like it, I will get it!"

That would be great!

Qiao Nian thought secretly in her heart, but her face was still stained with a faint smile, "Then, I wish the girl all her wishes come true."

After the voice fell, there was a dead silence.

Princess Shu Yuan did not speak, just sat in her seat, quietly looking at Qiao Nian.

Qiao Nian stood with her eyes downcast, and the corners of her mouth kept a faint arc.

Then, Princess Shu Yuan suddenly laughed out loud.

She slowly stood up and walked towards Qiao Nian, every step was extremely domineering.

Until she stood in front of Qiao Nian, Qiao Nian raised his eyes and looked at her.

When their eyes met, there was no fear in Qiao Nian's eyes.

Princess Shu Yuan probably didn't expect Qiao Nian's eyes to be so tenacious, and was slightly surprised.

But she still chuckled and asked, "Why? Do you want to use my hand to get rid of Lin Yuan?"

Qiao Nian smiled faintly, "I don't understand what the lady is saying."

Princess Shu Yuan reached out and gently brushed Qiao Nian's cheek, "Don't pretend, in fact, you recognized me a long time ago, right? Miss Lin... Oh, no, Miss Qiao."
