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

The carriage passed by Xiao Xuetang. Seeing Xiao Xuetang was stunned for a long time without saying anything, Qiyue asked, "Miss, what's wrong?"

Xiao Xuetang shook her head gently and said, "Nothing, maybe I am dazzled."

Otherwise, how could he have mistaken the man in the carriage for Lin Xun...

The Regent is very busy, so it's okay to meet him in the Marquis's mansion, but you can't possibly meet him in a car accident on the street...right?

Thinking of this, Xiao Xuetang temporarily suppressed the strange feeling in her heart, not knowing that a deep gaze was staring at the direction where the carriage was leaving.

It seemed more interesting than he imagined...

The carriage soon stopped at the Marquis' Mansion, and Qiyue helped Xiao Xuetang get off the carriage.

Ye Jin also jumped off another carriage.

Today, Ye Jin wore a pink skirt that made her skin look white. She had her hair in the popular lily-shaped bun and a delicate jade hairpin with beautiful tassels inserted in her hair.

She was not as quiet as the noble ladies in Kyoto at that time, who were particular about not moving their hairpins and rings while walking. Instead, she jumped directly from the carriage, and her tassel earrings swayed with her, looking indescribably playful.

Ye Jin saw Xiao Xuetang blinking and said, "Sister is worthy of being a noble lady in Kyoto. Your words and actions are so elegant."

In fact, he was secretly mocking Xiao Xuetang for being old-fashioned and boring.

Xiao Xuetang held Qiyue's hand, raised his eyelids and glanced at Ye Jin, and said lightly: "Sister, why don't you bring a maid with you when you go out?"

"what?"

Xiao Xuetang said slowly, "Bring a maid to catch the powder that falls from your face. Otherwise, such expensive powder will fall to the ground when you talk. What a waste..."

Ye Jin was stunned at first, then she realized that Xiao Xuetang was mocking her for putting too much powder on her face, and she immediately became so angry that her face turned red.

"Xiao Xuetang!"

She looked at Xiao Xuetang again. She was dressed in plain clothes, but her skin was white without any powder, her eyebrows were green without any makeup, and her lips were red without any makeup. Her peach blossom eyes looked at Ye Jin with a half-smile, and she looked beautiful and noble.

Ye Jin was filled with anger, hatred and jealousy at this moment.

"What's the point of being born beautiful? You're still a waste who can't even win a man's heart. Xiao Xuetang, no one will like you!"

Ye Jin's voice behind him seemed to be poisoned. Xiao Xuetang paused, and then left without any hesitation.

No one likes her? So what? It's enough for her to like herself!

When they returned to Litangju, Bihen quickly poured a cup of sour plum soup.

The weather was getting warmer, and the wealthy families in Kyoto all started using ice. However, the old lady in the Marquis' Mansion was always stingy, and Xiao Xuetang was weak and couldn't eat anything too cold, so the sour plum soup was just soaked in well water and was just right for drinking.

In the past, Xiao Xuetang was under the old lady's supervision, so how could she be as comfortable as she is now?

"Young lady is wise enough not to take on the household affairs. Let's live our own lives behind closed doors."

Bi Hen smiled and said, "Today, I heard from outside that the Second Madam was checking the accounts, and the maids below said that this matter was handled by Miss Jin and had nothing to do with the Second Madam, which made the Second Madam very angry. Originally, she wanted to make trouble with Miss Jin, but Miss Jin happened to be away from home today, so she went to the Madam and made a scene, and half of the Marquis's mansion knew about it."

Xiao Xuetang understood.

The comprador problem in the Marquis' Mansion has been around for a long time. Ye Jin took on too much responsibility without knowing the details. He originally wanted to bribe his subordinates to control the finances of the Marquis' Mansion in the future, but he didn't realize that he had taken on a hot potato.

When something happened in his previous life, Ye Jin pushed Xie out. Xie had a weak personality and was no match for the ferocious Second Lady. In the end, Xiao Xuetang had to mediate and she had to be the punching bag in the middle.

Now Xiao Xuetang had the foresight to remove himself and Litangju from the big trouble of Xiao family. He would no longer sympathize with Xie family. He just watched the hustle and bustle of the marquis' mansion and Ye Jin's jumping up and down with cold eyes!

When Qi Yue heard that Ye Jin was mentioned, Xiao Xuetang didn't speak for a long time. However, she misunderstood that Xiao Xuetang was upset about the matter between Ye Jin and Lin Shaoshu. She was about to signal Bi Hen to stop talking, but Bi Hen continued talking on his own.

"This incident caused quite a stir. Normally, the old lady would have questioned Madam after hearing the news. But this time, she went against her norm and reprimanded Madam. I don't know why."

Xiao Xuetang smiled and said after a moment: "It's probably because of her nephew from the Zhang family."

"Yesterday evening, I asked Uncle Wu to deliver a letter of complaint to the Procuratorate. Zhang Hua injured someone, fled for fear of crime, and was protected by the powerful. I guess the Zhang family was panicked by the investigation of the Procuratorate, so they came to the old lady, and the old lady could only ask my father for help... As for my father, no matter how filial he was, he would never dare to offend the Procuratorate, so he didn't dare to agree easily."

"The son who always gave her everything she asked for, this time, was uncharacteristically unwilling to do anything for her. My grandmother looks fierce, but is actually very timid. She would think that her son has turned away from her. So before Zhang Hua's matter is settled, the old lady will naturally try to please our eldest branch..."

As they were talking, Zhuier's voice came from outside: "Miss, Nanny Qin is here."

At this time, Bihen and Qiyue were puzzled and asked subconsciously: "What is Nanny Qin doing here at this time?"

Xiao Xuetang put down the cup in his hand, raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "The person who delivered the gift is here!"

As soon as the words fell, Nanny Qin's voice could be heard from afar: "Miss, this old servant is here to bring you something."

"Before, because your young wife was not at home, I was worried that those good things would be stolen by those cunning servants. Now that your wife is back, it is natural to return the things to their original owners."

As they were talking, they saw a maid holding some boxes of jewelry and delivering them all to Litangju!

Xiao Xuetang smiled and ordered someone to move a chair and sit down under the eaves, as if he had already prepared to count the items.

Nanny Qin glanced at Xiao Xuetang and was surprised to find that this usually silent young lady actually had an aura of majesty between her brows.

This young lady is really different from before!

Thinking of this, Nanny Qin immediately put away her contempt and looked at Xiao Xuetang and said, "Miss, the things are all here. Take a look... do you want to check them out yourself?"

Xiao Xuetang smiled and said, "Mammy personally delivered the things. Logically, I should be able to trust Mammy, but..."

At this point, Xiao Xuetang changed the subject and said, "Madam, you act fairly, but there is no guarantee that your subordinates have tampered with the items. I think we should open the boxes and count them to avoid confusion."

When these words came out, everyone had different expressions...

The most nervous person is of course Aunt Lai!

Nanny Qin was also secretly shocked. She originally thought that as long as she quietly sent these jewellery and gold and silver ornaments, the matter would be settled.

I never expected Xiao Xuetang to be so ostentatious.

But thinking of Xiao Xuetang's abnormal behavior these days, Nanny Qin didn't dare to neglect her...

But before she could open her mouth, Nanny Lai beside her said loudly, "Miss, the things are all kept in the old lady's yard. We are all serving the old lady. You are treating us as thieves!"

"You just ignored us and didn't take the old lady seriously. Now that the lady is back, you don't even take the old lady seriously. How can this be justified in the world..."

Nanny Lai wailed. She thought that she could get away with today's incident by relying on her seniority and the fact that Xiao Xuetang was a young lady with a thin face.

Little did people know that Xiao Xuetang, after living a new life, knew that substance was the most important thing. Can face be eaten?

Not to mention, she had made up her mind to deal with Nanny Lai today, so it was impossible for her to let her off so easily!
