After the noble lady was reborn, the whole mansion begged her for forgiveness

Qin Suling knew that only by gaining the trust of Old Madam Qin could she find out the mystery of her mother's life experience.

She knew the story behind this piece of jade very well.

This is not the Qin family's ancestral jade, but my mother's.

Now, it is back in his hands, as if it is a cycle of fate.

When it was Fang Rushuang's turn to give the dowry, a calculating look flashed in her eyes.

She looked at Qin Suling, her tone gentle but firm: "Ling'er, although you are not my biological child, you are better than my biological child. Seeing that the Duke of Zhenguo Mansion gave you so much betrothal gifts, I thought of giving you all the dowry..."

Qin Suling smiled slightly, turned around, knelt in front of Fang Rushuang, and kowtowed, saying, "My daughter will remember my mother's kindness in her heart. You are going to give me all the dowry that my mother left for me and the dowry that you prepared. This is undoubtedly a great support for me and the Qin family. This also lets the Zhenguogong Mansion know that although the Qin family is marrying off their daughter to a high position, they can still support their daughter."

She raised her head, her eyes gleaming with determination. "It's just that Ling'er is a concubine's daughter, and I don't want mother to mistreat her own daughter Su Yu because of me. Sister has always been gentle and virtuous, and deserves more love. Therefore, I beg mother to give me the dowry that mother left for me, and please leave all your own dowry to sister."

After she finished speaking, she turned to look at Qin Suyu, who was already looking unhappy, and showed a loving look: "Ling'er, as the eldest sister, you should consider your younger sister. I am also willing to take out half of the dowry left by mother to add a box for your younger sister. This way, after she marries into the Fourth Prince's Mansion, she won't have to suffer anymore."

Qin Suyu looked unhappy when he heard this.

Qin Suling's words flowed like a clear spring, but with an unquestionable firmness, which blocked Fang Rushuang's original intention to raise the words about dowry.

Fang Rushuang's face changed slightly, but she still tried to save the situation: "Your dowry..."

Qin Suling shook her head gently, with a clear and firm light flashing in her eyes. She interrupted Fang Rushuang's words: "Mother, you don't need to say more. Ling'er knows your kindness and generosity, but I will naturally prepare the dowry for my sister. I appreciate your kindness, but please don't reject my intention to add a box for my sister."

Fang Rushuang's face turned ugly in an instant, and she almost stood up, but reason made her hold back her impulse.

She didn't really want to give Qin Suling a dowry, but wanted to take Qin Suling's dowry for herself.

However, Qin Suling's words put her in a dilemma.

Seeing this, Qin Shizhao spoke in a deep voice: "Okay, Madam, Ling'er, you are all my dearest ones. Today, I will preside over the distribution of the dowry." He paused and continued: "The dowry is for Ling'er, so naturally she will take it all. As a family of officials, how can we embezzle even a little bit of our daughter's dowry? That would only make people despise us."

"As Ling'er's legal mother, you naturally cannot be looked down upon. I will give Ling'er 30% of the dowry I have prepared so that she can have a foothold in her husband's family."

As soon as Qin Shizhao finished speaking, Fang Rushuang and Qin Suyu's faces turned as ugly as eggplants hit by frost.

They originally planned to take Qin Suling's dowry, but they never thought that in the end they would lose 30% of their own dowry.

Qin Suyu was so angry that she almost lost her mind. She wanted to stand up regardless of her status and curse everyone in the room.

But Fang Rushuang held her sleeve tightly and shook her head gently, signaling her to calm down.

Qin Suyu had to suppress the anger in her heart, but her eyes were like a fire-breathing beast, staring at Qin Suling.

But Qin Suling seemed unaware of all this. She still maintained her gentle and dignified smile, like a blooming white lotus, elegant and noble.

Qin Suyu comforted herself in her heart: It doesn’t matter, Qin Suling will only be in glory for a day or two.

After all, the man she was going to marry was the Fourth Prince, the future emperor!

This thought calmed her down a little, but her hands beneath her sleeves were still clenched into fists.

After Qin Shizhao finished speaking, the room fell into a brief silence.

"Father is wise. Ling'er is grateful to you forever."

Qin Suling slowly stood up, bowed slightly, his voice full of gratitude.

She knew that although Qin Shizhao's decision made Fang Rushuang and Qin Suyu lose face, it was the greatest guarantee for her.

Fang Rushuang's complexion had recovered a little. She forced a smile and tried to ease the awkward atmosphere: "Since the master has decided, then it is of course great. Ling'er, you must cherish this dowry and live a good life in your husband's family in the future."

Qin Suling smiled slightly, as if she didn't hear the deep meaning in Fang Rushuang's words: "Don't worry, mother, Ling'er will remember it in her heart."

At this time, a maid hurried in, holding an exquisite brocade box in her hands: "Master, Madam, this is a gift just sent from the palace. It's for the eldest lady."

Qin Shizhao nodded slightly and signaled the maid to present the brocade box. Qin Suling took the brocade box and gently opened it. Inside was a string of dazzling pearl necklaces. Each pearl exuded a soft luster, as if it contained endless blessings.

"Is this... a gift from the Fourth Prince?" Qin Suling asked softly, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

"That's right." The maid replied respectfully, "The Fourth Prince learned that the eldest lady was about to get married, so he sent someone to deliver this pearl necklace as a gift."

Qin Suling nodded slightly and put the necklace into the brocade box.

However, this joy did not last long.

Seeing this, Qin Suyu's eyes flashed with jealousy and unwillingness.

She originally thought that she was about to marry the Fourth Prince and would be the most noble woman in the palace.

But now it seems that Qin Suling seems to be more favored by the Fourth Prince than her.

This made the anger in her heart burn like a ignited flame.

But Qin Suyu knew that this was not the time to lose her temper.

She had to stay calm and not let anyone see her misstep.

She took a deep breath, tried to calm herself down, and then said calmly: "Sister is so lucky to be favored by the Fourth Prince."

Qin Suling smiled slightly when she heard this: "Sister, you are too kind. The Fourth Prince is kind-hearted and treats every sister in the mansion equally."

Qin Suyu's face froze when he heard this.

She knew that Qin Suling was hinting at her not to be so wishful thinking, but she couldn't refute it.

Because what Qin Suling said was true, the Fourth Prince really treated them equally and never favored anyone.

Qin Suyu understood that the gap between himself and Qin Suling was not just about identity and status.

She has to work harder to win everything she wants.

Qin Suling continued to maintain her calmness and elegance, as if everything was under her control.
