"The wine is not poisonous, but the wine glass is poisonous."

Nanny Jiang had sharp eyes and she saw through the whole thing at a glance. She left the Feng sisters with a sullen face and quickly pulled Jiang Muxia to the kitchen, where she got some water for her to wash her hands.

He changed the water three or five times before he stopped.

Madam Jiang's face turned pale and she apologized to Jiang Muxia, "Miss Jiang, I'm sorry. I wanted to treat you to a meal, but this..."

Jiang Muxia smiled, rubbing her hands vigorously, and said nonchalantly: "Don't blame you, I saw it when she poured me the wine. I was sure she wouldn't joke about her life, so I guessed that there must be something wrong with the wine glass."

"I really didn't expect it." Nanny Jiang handed her a clean handkerchief, her eyes darkening. "I took care of her for two years when she was little, and she was well-behaved. I didn't expect that after not seeing her for ten years, she would have grown into such a vicious person."

Jiang Muxia took the handkerchief without commenting.

When the two returned to the east wing, Feng Siqing was scolding his sister.

Nanny Jiang sat back in her original seat and looked at them coldly.

Jiang Muxia sat in front of the stove, picked up the shovel and added two shovels of charcoal into the furnace, too lazy to watch the two sisters' performance.

She always believed that there were two kinds of people in the same pot. Feng Siyao had a bad character, and her sister was not much better.

Jiang Siyao's repeated attacks on her caused her good impression of Feng Siqing to disappear completely.

"Hurry up and apologize to Miss Jiang." Feng Siqing angrily pushed his sister who looked dissatisfied.

Feng Siyao lowered her head, her fingers tightly clenched the corner of her clothes. She walked with heavy steps and her body was stiff, refusing to take a step forward.

Feng Siqing pushed her again, feeling disappointed, "Go quickly."

Two steps away, like a huge chasm, Feng Siyao couldn't cross it, nor did she want to cross it. There was a fierce look in her eyes, and she insisted that she was right. A peasant girl, who was inferior to her in every way, why should she compete with her for her brother Xiaobai.

But Nanny Jiang was like a mountain, pressing down on her and making it impossible for her to vent her anger.

Tang Zhongbai was the princess's favorite. She had brought him up, and her status and power here were similar to that of the princess. One word could ruin her future.

Even if she had ten guts, she wouldn't dare to act like a spoiled child in front of Madam Jiang. After such a scandal happened today, she clearly understood that even becoming his concubine was impossible.

It's really fate that this little bitch is so lucky!

She made up her mind, and a strong feeling of unwillingness rushed to her head.

I secretly swore in my heart, Jiang Muxia, since I can't be his bedmate, then you can forget about it, I will definitely find a way to destroy you.

At present, the only way to avenge the loss of love is to escape first.

Feng Siyao pretended to take two steps forward, then knelt down in front of Jiang Muxia with a plop.

She sobbed softly, holding back her reluctance and said, "Sister Jiang, I'm sorry, I was bewildered, please forgive me!"

A trace of disgust flashed in Jiang Muxia's eyes. This person was really shameless. He hurt her again and again, and he still wanted her to forgive him?

She said nothing, and stirred the broken charcoal in the furnace with the tongs in her hand, showing no intention of forgiving her.

Seeing that she didn't say anything, Feng Siqing carefully defended his sister: "I'm sorry, Miss Jiang, I didn't teach her well. I spoiled her and made her arrogant. She is still a child. Please forgive her once..."

Nanny Jiang's eyes were filled with disappointment. The two daughters of the Feng family were both useless.

"Ms. Feng, please be careful with your words." Jiang Muxia turned around, a fierce look flashed in her eyes, and she opened her cherry lips softly, "The little kid you mentioned has hurt me time and time again. May I ask, what evil things did I do to her that made her hate me so much?"

"The first time, they had people throw shit on the restaurant door in the middle of the night. The second time, they instigated Jiang Hongxing to cause trouble in the restaurant. This time, it was even worse, to the point of wanting to kill me."

"This..." Feng Siqing choked. She was always the last to find out about these things, and she scolded her every time, but she never repented. As her sister, she really had no choice.

However, a fatal incident happened today, and she had to plead for her sister.

This concerns the Tang family's attitude towards their father and the fate of their family.

Seeing that she couldn't say anything, Jiang Siyao knelt on the ground, lowered her head, and said nothing.

"What? You can't say it?" Jiang Muxia glanced at the two sisters and said firmly: "Then let me tell you..."

Before she could finish her words, Nanny Jiang stopped her.

Nanny Jiang walked up to her, patted her shoulder, nodded at her, and reassured her.

She looked at the two sisters and said seriously, "I originally invited you here today to announce an important matter to you. I didn't expect such a big accident to happen. I will definitely write a letter to inform the princess of this matter. And the most important thing is that I will personally go to the Jiang family to propose marriage in two days. I don't care which of you two has ideas about the second young master, just give up your thoughts. The Tang family is not allowed to take concubines. The second young master of the Tang family has only one wife, Miss Jiang."

The reason why she wanted to tell them about this matter that had nothing to do with them was to stop them from thinking about it and let them recognize their own identities.

After being away for ten years, the Feng family members have become wild and really think of themselves as the masters.

Her cold eyes flashed with a chill as she sneered, "You have been here for ten years. I'm afraid you have long forgotten your identities, right? How ridiculous it is that you still dare to dream of something that will never be possible."

Feng Siqing's face turned pale. She had never forgotten it, but...

"I'm sorry, Aunt Jiang. I've never forgotten it." There were tears in her eyes and her voice was choked with sobs.

Madam Jiang glanced at her coldly, "But you can't control your father and your sister!"

Feng Siyao was still kneeling on the ground with her head lowered. Her nails dug into her flesh and a sticky substance flowed out, but she didn't feel any pain at all.

She cursed the Tang family fiercely in her heart. The Feng family had worked so hard for the Tang family for so many years, but in their eyes they were just slaves.

Jiang Muxia hadn't spoken yet to forgive her sister. Feng Siqing didn't know whether to sit down or leave, and kept rubbing his hands in awkwardness.

The room suddenly became quiet, with only the bubbling sound of the fragrant ingredients in the ceramic pot on the table.

A hawk screamed in the yard.

Then I heard Tang Si saying something loudly outside the door, followed by the sound of him laughing.

As the footsteps got closer, Feng Siqing became panicked.

She looked nervously at her sister who was kneeling on the ground and looked to Nanny Jiang for help.

Nanny Jiang avoided his gaze and ignored him.

She was forced to speak, she knew that if Tang Zhongbai knew that her sister had poisoned Miss Jiang, he would probably be able to kill Siyao on the spot.

"Madam Jiang, please help us put in a good word with Miss Jiang."

"No, this is the last time. If there is a next time, I will never show mercy. Even if you are the daughter of the county magistrate, I will fight you to the death."

Jiang Muxia just didn't want to make Tang Zhongbai worry. He had been busy with the affairs of the yamen day and night these days, and his eyes were blue. He was too tired.

He stayed in the yamen all day today, communicating with the people who had lost their children and making a list of them.

These chores alone would keep him busy for ten days or half a month.

He needs to get a good rest so that he can keep his energy to deal with the angry parents who have lost their children.

Seeing that she finally vomited, Feng Siqing hurried forward and pulled his sister up.

"Thank you Miss Jiang for your generosity. I will keep an eye on her from now on and will never let her do anything to hurt Miss Jiang again."

As soon as she finished speaking, Tang Si's voice rang out at the door, "It smells so good. Mammy is making Sukiyaki pot again. I have to eat an extra bowl of rice."

Tang Zhongbai walked in front and had already lifted the warm curtain and stepped into the house.

Already sensing that the atmosphere in the room was not right, Tang Zhongbai frowned as he recalled the few words he heard when he first entered the courtyard. He glanced at the Feng sisters standing together with his sharp eyes and asked, "Who wants to hurt Miss Jiang?"
