After the eldest daughter was reborn, the whole family knelt down and begged for forgiveness

Not only Ye Jin was puzzled by Xiao Xuetang's decision today, even Xiao Yunni and the Second Madam were also very puzzled.

After leaving Xuantang Courtyard, the Second Madam first thanked Xiao Xuetang, "Thank you, Miss, for speaking up for my Yun Ni today. In the past... it was your aunt who let you down."

Speaking of this, the second wife felt very guilty.

During the past five years, Xiao Xuetang was harshly treated and tortured by Old Madam Xiao. Even if the Second Madam did not see it with her own eyes, she must have heard about it. However, she chose to remain silent and allowed the old lady to abuse this teenage child without parental protection.

Firstly, she had only one daughter and no sons, and with Aunt Liu as her rival, her position was very unstable; secondly, it was because of jealousy...

She was jealous of Xie because she came from a prominent family, had two children, and her husband was devoted to her.

Therefore, when the second wife saw that Xie's daughter was not living well, she felt a secret pleasure in her heart.

Thinking about it now, she felt very ashamed.

What does the grudges between adults have to do with children?

Moreover, the affair between Xiao Yi and the Huguo Temple was exposed, and the Second Madam saw with her own eyes that Xie had been deceived by the man beside her for most of her life. She thought that her life was happy and stable, but it was nothing but a mirage, an illusion...

The second wife's jealousy turned into sympathy for Xie.

Just when the Second Madam was thinking about something, she heard Xiao Xuetang say calmly, "Aunt, there's no need to mention what happened back then. I helped Yun Ni today because Aunt owes me a favor. If there's anything I can do for you in the future, I'll definitely ask for your help."

Not all apologies are forgiven...

In the first two years after Xie left Kyoto, even though she was very intelligent, she was only an eleven or twelve-year-old child. She was deliberately abused and beaten by the old lady. She knelt in the snow in the middle of winter and was frozen unconscious, which left her with a fear of the cold.

If she hadn't secretly hidden some medicinal pills, and if she hadn't been protected by Bihen Qiyue, she would have died in the first winter her parents left her in Kyoto...

If someone in the family had spoken up for her at that time, the old lady would not have been so unscrupulous.

Now, with just a simple apology from the Second Madam, Xiao Xuetang can let go of all the sufferings of the past?

She is not stupid!

The Second Madam noticed Xiao Xuetang's cold expression, and she immediately realized that although this young lady looked gentle, she was actually very stubborn and opinionated.

However, for the Second Madam, it is not important whether she can get Xiao Xuetang's forgiveness. What is important is that Xiao Xuetang does not regard them as enemies.

The Second Madam has always been a shrewd and calculating person. She has vaguely felt that the Old Madam's favoritism towards Ye Jin is a stupid move. Sooner or later, the situation in the Marquis' Mansion will change!

It would be good to have a good relationship with Xiao Xuetang.

Thinking of this, the Second Madam's expression eased and she said to Xiao Xuetang, "If the eldest lady has any instructions in the future, just tell me directly. I will definitely do my best to do what I can. By the way, there is also Aunt Liu..."

The Second Madam could see that Xiao Xuetang seemed to care about Aunt Liu very much, so she took the initiative to provide a piece of information: "I saw before that she seemed to be very close to Madam Nan from the Ru'nan Palace. On the third day of every month, they would meet in a teahouse to listen to opera."

Xiao Xuetang's eyebrows jumped. This was a very useful clue for her. She quickly asked, "What teahouse?"

"It's called Xingxue Tower. It sounds very elegant, but it's actually a theater. All the noble ladies in Kyoto would go there to listen to operas and drink tea."

It was a coincidence actually.

The Second Lady and Concubine Liu were always at loggerheads with each other, and would secretly keep an eye on each other's every move, trying to find a way to kill each other. That was why the Second Lady noticed Concubine Liu's unusual movements, and thought she was secretly meeting her lover, so she sent someone to follow her several times.

Later I found out that the person Aunt Liu met was Madam Nan!

When the Second Lady found out that Aunt Liu was trying to get close to Madam Nan, she was so angry that she sulked at home for several days.

But ever since the affair between Madam Nan of Huguo Temple and Xiao Yi was exposed, even a careless person like the Second Madam vaguely felt that something was wrong...

However, she couldn't tell what was wrong specifically, so she simply told Xiao Xuetang about it, as if she was doing Xiao Xuetang a favor.

Xiao Xuetang first frowned, then relaxed her brows, and reminded the Second Madam, "Since the Liu family has set their sights on Yun Ni, and Ye Jin and Aunt Liu are behind the scenes, I'm afraid they won't give up easily. Second Aunt, you have to be careful these days."

Under Xiao Yunni's resentful gaze, Xiao Xuetang said, "It's best not to let Yunni go out these days."

The Second Lady was very grateful to see that Xiao Xuetang was thinking about Xiao Yunni. Seeing that Xiao Xuetang and Xiao Yunni seemed to have something to say, she took her people and left first.

As soon as the second wife left, Xiao Yunni threw herself into Xiao Xuetang's arms and cried softly, "Tangtang, I don't care, you have to save me. I don't want to marry into the Liu family..."

Originally Xiao Yunni was pretending to cry, but when the Liu family and Liu Yongchang were mentioned, Xiao Yunni started shaking all over and started crying for real.

Xiao Xuetang pushed her: "Hold back your tears, these are my new clothes!"

Xiao Yunni...

Xiao Yunni's eyes were filled with tears as she accused Xiao Xuetang: "You only care about clothes and don't care about me. Do you have a heart?"

Xiao Xuetang...

"You have lived two lives, so why are you still so afraid of Liu Yongchang?"

She was really confused.

Xiao Yunni has always been spoiled and has memories of two lives. After her death, Xiao Yunni also saw a lot of secrets of Kyoto.

Can……

After being reborn, he did nothing but hang out with the Second Madam and her daughter every day, and he didn't even dare to seek revenge.

Xiao Yunni pursed her lips and whispered, "You know, I've never been very smart. Even though I've lived two lives, my IQ hasn't improved."

She is not Xiao Xuetang.

In her previous life, Xiao Xuetang was deceived by the people around her. From the very beginning, she was framed by Ye Jin in the Huguo Temple and was pressed to death in the manor, which led to a series of tragedies later.

After living a new life, Xiao Xuetang saw through the hypocrisy of Lin Shaoshu and Ye Jin in time and stopped the loss in time. In addition, Xiao Xuetang was personally taught by Old Master Xie, and her knowledge and vision were far superior to those of ordinary women. More importantly, she also had the money and connections left by Concubine Xie.

It is precisely because of this that she has enough capital to compete with Ye Jin, and even Lin Shaoshu and Xiao Yi!

As for Xiao Yunni...

"My mother has always protected me since I was a child. If I leave her, I really don't know what to do. But I don't dare tell my mother about my rebirth."

Xiao Xuetang asked, "Are you worried that the Second Madam won't believe you?"

"She'll believe me!"

Xiao Yunni said this with great certainty, with the natural intimacy between mother and daughter.

In this regard, Xiao Xuetang did not quite understand Xiao Yunni's absolute trust and dependence on the Second Madam.

In her previous life, she also had a feeling of admiration for Xie, but her expectations were met with disappointment time and time again.

Because I have never had it, I cannot understand it...
