Wei Bingyan brought Aunt Yin and Bai Binghui home. Anxiang knew that these two people would be trained vigorously by the young lady in the days to come, and it was possible that she would not be able to go out with the young lady in the future.

Although she feels a little lonely deep down in her heart, as long as she does nothing wrong, the young lady will still take her back to the capital in the future, right?

She was just a little slave now and didn't have the courage to hope to avenge her relatives.

However, as long as she reaches the capital, she will be closer to her goal, and there will always be a day when she can take revenge.

Xiao was touched and ashamed by Mrs. Li's kindness.

As a mother, she was unable to take good care of her daughter due to her poor health and busy household chores.

Apart from Xing'er, Anxiang was rescued by her daughter herself, and there were not many maids around her who could really be of use. She must have ignored them intentionally or unintentionally!

How could she not feel ashamed when a master like Mrs. Li was even more meticulous than her?

"Your master is really thoughtful. I have always ignored it. I think Aunt Yin and Bai Binghui are both honest. I feel relieved to have them by your side." After Wei Bingyan brought Aunt Yin and Bai Binghui to greet Xiao respectfully, she asked Anxiang to take them downstairs and arrange for them to live, while she stayed to talk to Xiao.

"They are brought up by the master, so naturally they are not inferior at all. But Sister Xia Yuezhu and Sister Xiaohe beside mother are not bad either. It's just that mother is unwilling to bear the pain and give them up." Wei Bingyan said with a smile.

"So you have been planning to take advantage of my maidservant. Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Xiao glared at her and said with a smile.

Wei Bingyan tilted her head and said, "Mom, you have so many things to do every day. Xia Yuezhu and Xiaohe are your right-hand men. How can I really come? I don't have anything important to do."

"I'm going to attend Mrs. Liu's birthday party tomorrow. Why don't you come with us?" Mrs. Xiao felt very warm-hearted because of her daughter.

She has indeed been busy with a lot of things recently. Although she did not celebrate the New Year happily with her relatives, she spent a lot of time with them in Jinyun City. People give gifts to each other during the Spring Festival, and what gift to give is also a headache.

The key is the marriage with the Chu family. Although she is not a relative, as the mistress of the family, she still has to make the final decision on many things, such as Miss Wei Bingru's wedding dress.

"Okay." She hadn't appeared in these places for a long time, and she didn't know if she happened to meet Chu Xueying.

Wei Bingyan was still worried that if she didn't see Chu Xueying at Mrs. Liu's place, the effect she wanted might be somewhat dimmed.

However, there is no need to worry about this issue, because Chu Xuying is also looking forward to this day.

Ever since that day when Wei Bingyan slapped her in front of everyone, it was the greatest humiliation she had ever experienced in her life, so she had been thinking about how to return this humiliation to Wei Bingyan.

She knew that it was impossible to deal with Wei Bingyan head-on.

Although she is the daughter of Lord Chu, compared with the Wei family, their Chu family is not worth mentioning at all.

Therefore, she wanted to make it clear to everyone that Wei Bingyan was an evil woman who said one thing on the surface but did another in her heart. She wanted her reputation as an evil woman to spread further and further, and finally reach the capital. Only when she could not spread the reputation for the rest of her life could she quell the anger in her heart.

Although Mrs. Liu's husband was only a student at the Imperial College, the Liu family was a prominent family in Jinyun City with a high reputation, so many ladies came to Mrs. Liu's birthday party this time.

Wei Bingyan came with Xiao to celebrate Mrs. Liu's birthday. Knowing that Mrs. Liu liked agate bracelets very much, Xiao gave her a pair of beautiful luster agate bracelets as a gift.

"I feel extremely honored that you have the presence to attend such a grand banquet of mine. How can I accept such a generous gift from you?" Mrs. Liu personally greeted Xiao and respectfully welcomed her into the house while speaking.

Many people had already come into the house, including Mrs. Chu and Chu Xuying. When they saw Xiao's mother and daughter come in, their smiling faces immediately sank.

When Chu Xueying saw Wei Bingyan, she hung her head and pretended to be panicked, but a sinister expression flashed across her eyes.

Everyone quickly stood up and bowed respectfully to Xiao.

Xiao asked everyone to sit down, "I thought I had arrived first, but you all arrived earlier than me."

"We are not as elegant and graceful as you, Mrs. Wei. We are lucky enough to have you here. How dare we let you come earlier than us?" Mrs. Chu did not stand up to greet Mrs. Xiao, but sat in her original position with a cold face. When she heard what Mrs. Xiao said, she immediately spoke coldly and sourly.

"Why do you say that, Mrs. Chu? Are you blaming me for not coming out to gather with everyone recently? Is this making you unhappy, Mrs. Chu?" After listening to Mrs. Chu's words, Xiao did not look angry. Instead, she sat down in the armchair near Mrs. Chu with a smile on her face and asked.

Mrs. Chu glanced at Xiao and asked, "Why is Mrs. Wei pretending not to know?"

Mrs. Liu could not have imagined that once Mrs. Chu saw Xiao, the two of them would become so hostile. She did not know what to do for a moment and even forgot to try to smooth things over. So... aren't these two families going to become in-laws?

Others had the same idea as Mrs. Liu. They all felt that these two wives who were about to become in-laws had suddenly become mortal enemies. They also speculated whether it was because... Mrs. Chu's daughter was oppressed and bullied?

Looking at Chu Xueying who looked very aggrieved, everyone felt that it was very likely to be the case!

"Mrs. Wei, let's be frank. Originally, our children were going to be married, and we were going to be a family. But we were fighting each other. This matter hasn't even come to an end, and your daughter is trying to commit suicide and resist the marriage. Although our Chu family doesn't have the great reputation of your Wei family, it's not so easy to be oppressed and bullied!"

Mrs. Chu also asked Xiao angrily, regardless of the presence of everyone.

Xiao sighed, looked at Mrs. Chu with hesitation, and said softly, "Mrs. Chu, why don't we talk about this matter in private?"

"What can't be said here? Mrs. Wei, you are being overbearing!" Chu Xuying was not a weak person after all. After a while, she used her clever words to help Mrs. Chu make things difficult for Xiao.

"This... Mrs. Chu, Mrs. Wei, why don't everyone pay more attention? We have invited the Qinchunyuan Theater to perform some very distinctive songs. We..." Mrs. Liu saw that the atmosphere was becoming increasingly wrong, and she just came to her senses and hurriedly tried to smooth things over.

Mrs. Chu raised her hand and said, "Mrs. Liu, today is your birthday. I have to hold back my anger, but I still need your understanding. I can't bear it any longer. There is really no other way."

Xiao looked at Mrs. Liu awkwardly, "Mrs. Liu, I'm really sorry, this..."

"Mrs. Chu, today is Mrs. Liu's birthday party. The matters between our two families really shouldn't be discussed here. But since you don't want to talk about it in secret, it's really embarrassing for our Wei family... There are some things that my mother couldn't say, so I, as an elder sister, had to say them for my sister."

Wei Bingyan suddenly stood up and said in a clear voice, "In the past, my father arranged a marriage for me. I was happy to know that I could marry Prince Chu, but I didn't know what I heard from others. I was so scared that I lost my mind. I was so excited that I said I would resist the marriage. This is not a lie. If Mrs. Chu doesn't believe it, you can send someone to investigate."

In the eyes of many people, Wei Bingyan is inseparable from the external image of a villain, so she is not prepared to pretend to be pitiful today to gain sympathy.

"What's the matter?" Mrs. Chu asked.

Wei Bingyan glanced at Chu Xueying, licked her lips and said nothing.

Chu Xueying smiled grimly, "What's wrong? Can't make it up?"

Mrs. Xiao shook her head. "Ms. Chu, it's not Bingyan's fabrication at all. It's just that she is a girl and can't open her mouth. Madam Chu, I heard from others that Prince Chu has taken in many concubines in his house..."

Before she finished speaking, Mrs. Chu immediately said, "Which young master's house doesn't have a few women serving him? Isn't your daughter particularly jealous?"

Wei Bingyan frowned and said coldly, "My sister is not unwilling to marry Prince Chu because of this, but because she heard from others that there is such a powerful young lady in the Chu family. Not only did she have the courage to deal with the people in my brother's house, she even killed several maids.

My sister is worried that if she enters your Chu family in the future, she will have to live under the will of her sister-in-law!"

As soon as these words came out, Mrs. Chu and her daughter's faces changed.

Others couldn't help but sigh.
