The mistress is reborn, no one who bullies me can escape

"Sister-in-law, this is the first family dinner my brother has held in our mansion since he came back. You have to prepare it well and not make it too petty, otherwise others will laugh at us." Zhao Yuting, who was sitting at the dinner table, saw that Xue Jinhua was so easy to talk to, and she also wanted to put on her airs.

If it was in her previous life, Xue Jinhua might have listened and tried every possible way to get things done, but she is no longer the same person she used to be, so she won't indulge her.

"Little sister, don't worry. The Marquis's family banquet has its own rules. No matter who we invite, we will follow the rules of the Marquis's Mansion. However, there are exceptions. Whoever wants to host a more decent banquet can pay for it out of their own pocket."

The implication is that if you are dissatisfied with the family dinner you want, then you have to pay for it yourself.

Her sister-in-law usually had very good food, clothing and daily expenses. But it was all spent on the money of the Marquis's Mansion, and she had no money. So she could only shut her mouth, like a defeated rooster.

Seeing her sister-in-law being frustrated, Xue Jinhua slowly put down her chopsticks and said, "There are many things to deal with for the family dinner, so I'll go back and get busy first."

Zhao Yuting was so angry when she saw her leave. She felt like her heart was stabbed by a knife. "Mom, look at her. Why don't you take care of her? She doesn't even take me seriously. Look at how proud she is."

"Mom, if you ask me, you should set some rules for her. You, the mother-in-law, haven't even left the table yet! She, the daughter-in-law, left first. If this goes on for too long, she will be so proud."

"Okay, stop talking. Your brother is really worried about his promotion now! We just used her dowry, so we must feel uncomfortable. Just bear with it for now! When your brother's matter is finalized, I will set rules for him without you saying anything."

Wang didn't want to break up with Xue Jinhua right now. But Zhao Yuting didn't want to. Seeing that her mother couldn't be persuaded, she turned to Zhao Yuxuan and said, "Brother, don't you care about it?"

At this moment, Zhao Yuxuan's mind was full of Xue Qing'er.

At this time, Zhao Yuxuan also understood that if he had a quarrel with Xue Jinhua now, it would be a case of impatience leading to ruin of great plans. Maybe even the family dinner could not be held. If the family dinner could not be held, he would not be able to see Xue Qing'er anymore.

So he said with a straight face: "Little sister, your sister-in-law is right. The Marquis' Mansion has its own rules. Everything should be done according to the rules of the Marquis' Mansion."

Zhao Yuting was dumbfounded. Why would the eldest brother who loved her the most speak for Xue Jinhua?

Damn Xue Jinhua, it's all your fault. That's why you're criticized by your mother and brother. Xue Jinhua, just wait for me, I'll make you pay.

...

Five days later, in the morning, the sun shone through the clouds into the courtyard of the Marquis's Mansion, reflecting a festive atmosphere. Today, the Marquis's Mansion was decorated with lights and colors, and a grand family banquet was about to be held.

Xue's mother arrived at the mansion early, wearing gorgeous clothes and with a happy smile on her face. However, this joy did not come from the welcome of the mansion, but from her expectation of seeing her daughter (adopted daughter) soon.

Since the last conflict with Xue Jinhua in the Marquis' Mansion, Xue's mother's dissatisfaction with Xue Jinhua has deepened. And today, she decided to show this dissatisfaction more obviously.

Xue Jinhua was busy entertaining the female relatives who arrived one after another. She was smiling and greeted everyone warmly, without noticing the presence of Xue's mother at all.

Soon, a familiar figure appeared at the door - Xue Qing'er. She was wearing a light pink dress, like a blooming flower, beautiful and charming.

Seeing her daughter coming, Xue's mother immediately stood up and walked over to greet her. She said with concern: "Qing'er, the weather is so cold, why don't you bring a hot water bottle with you? What if you get cold?" As she spoke, she held Xue Qing'er's hand tightly, her eyes full of heartache.

If you really care about someone, you can't hide it. This kind of emotion is naturally revealed in your eyes, expressions and behavior, and it can't be concealed or disguised. When a person doesn't care about another person, they can easily hide their true feelings and show indifference or indifference.

Xue Jinhua looked at this loving mother and filial son scene, and a hint of sarcasm rose in her heart. She recalled her past life experience, when she also longed for the warmth of family affection.

She remembered that in her previous life, she knew she was not her parents' biological daughter before she reached the age of 15. However, fate played tricks on her, and she was later taken back to Xue's house by them. She had also imagined such a warm scene. That's why she tried her best to please them and wanted to integrate into this big family as soon as possible.

Originally, the Xue Mansion and the Marquis Mansion were related by marriage, but the Xue Mansion disliked the decline of the Marquis Mansion. Although Zhao Yuxuan was considered a handsome man, he did not have a good official position, so they chose the Prince Zhuang Mansion, which had a relatively high status at the time, for Xue Qing'er.

However, in order to protect the reputation of the Xue family, they promised me, their own daughter who was living away from home, to Zhao Yuxuan.

How could they treat me like this? I am their biological daughter! Could it be that my happiness and future could be manipulated by them at will?

"Mom, I'm not cold. I'm wearing the fox fur that my third brother brought back from the Mobei grassland. I've been wrapped up tightly all the way and I don't feel cold at all."

Xue Qing'er had a delicate look on her face, and her tone was as gentle as the breeze blowing across the lake, with a hint of coquettishness.

Xue's mother gently stroked Xue Qing'er's hand, her eyes full of concern: "Silly child, you are too kind. However, you still have to keep warm and don't catch a cold."

Xue Qing'er nodded obediently, revealing a sweet smile, as beautiful as a blooming flower. Her eyes were clear and bright, revealing an innocent atmosphere, as if her world was filled with only beauty and warmth.

Seeing Xue Qing'er's fragile and lovable appearance, Xue's mother's heart was filled with love. She sighed secretly, thinking that her daughter was such a caring little girl that she couldn't help but want to take good care of her.

Xue Qing'er's personality is gentle and docile, like a pool of spring water, without any ripples. Her every move and every word is full of tenderness, as if her every move makes people want to protect her involuntarily. This innate temperament makes her stand out in the crowd, and people can't help but fall for her.

"It's windy here, let's go inside." He continued as he walked, "Even so, you should wrap yourself up tightly when you get off the car, okay?" Xue's mother was so distressed.

At this time, Xue Qing'er saw Xue Jinhua and walked towards her, "Sister..."

Looking at the girl in front of her, it seems that in her previous life, all the people she cared about revolved around her.

Now she can't forget what her second brother said.

"Because of her appearance, she took away everything from you..."

"Because of her appearance, she took away everything from you..."

……

But why doesn’t my second brother think about this: if I wasn’t lost, would Xue Qing’er be able to enter the Xue Mansion?

It was clearly her, Xue Qing'er, who took away everything from me, and in the end it all became her fault.

Xue Jinhua suppressed her anger, but smiled: "Prince's Consort, this is not our Xue Mansion. Please follow the rules of the Marquis' Mansion."

Her tone was calm, but her eyes were cold and distant.

Xue Qing'er stood there in a daze, a look of aggrieved look on her face and tears welling up in her eyes.

Xue's mother said unhappily: "Xue Jinhua, how do you talk to your sister? After all, she is your sister."

Xue Jinming still had a smile on her face as she looked at Xue's mother and said slowly: "Mother, this is the Marquis' Mansion after all, and those who come here are all the Marquis's in-laws. You don't want to be accused of being rude, do you?" Her voice was soft and firm, and it was impossible to ignore it.

Xue's mother was about to say something, but was stopped by Xue Qing'er who was standing beside her. Xue Qing'er pulled Xue's mother's sleeve and said softly, "Mom, please stop talking. I..." Her eyes revealed a trace of grievance.

"Aunt is right. It was Qing'er who was wrong. She forgot the rules." Her tone was calm and gentle, without any anger or dissatisfaction. According to the seniority of the Marquis' Mansion, Xue Jinhua should indeed be called aunt.

At this time, Xue Jinhua looked at Xue Qing'er and continued, "I thought you were not feeling well and couldn't come. You came to the Marquis' Mansion today to represent Prince Zhuang's Mansion. Your uncle is entertaining guests over there. Since you are here, you should go and say hello to your uncle!" As she spoke, she pointed in a direction not far away, which was where Zhao Yuxuan was.

Xue Jinhua had long discovered that although Zhao Yuxuan was entertaining guests and seemed to be chatting and laughing, in fact, his mind was always here. At this moment, she was doing it on purpose.

Hearing Xue Jinhua's words, Xue Qing'er's expression slightly changed, and a trace of fear surged in her heart. That feeling was like being caught by someone's pigtails, making her feel extremely uneasy. Because only people with guilty consciences would feel so guilty when facing others.

At this time, Xue's mother said, "Child, there are so many men over there, how can Qing'er go over to say hello? Qing'er, you should go say hello to Old Madam Wang first!"

Hearing this, Xue Qing'er felt relieved instantly. She looked at her mother gratefully, and then said, "Mom, I understand. I'll be there right away." After that, she turned and walked towards Old Madam Wang.

On the other hand, Xue Jinhua didn't care and couldn't help but smile: "Mother, didn't you come to see Brother Fan last time? The Marquis specially brought Brother Fan back today. Brother Fan is inside now. It's just right for you to go."

"What? Brother Fan is here too!" Xue's mother couldn't help but be surprised for a moment, but she reacted in an instant and immediately turned her face cold.

However, Xue Jinhua pretended not to see it and asked in surprise, "Mother, why did you look as if you knew Brother Fan just now?"

Xue's mother did not respond to her. "I've been here for so long, but I haven't said hello to your mother-in-law yet!" After saying that, she ignored Xue Jinhua and walked into the house. Her steps were so fast, as if someone was chasing her from behind. It was obvious that she was very anxious.

Xue Jinhua raised her lips slightly, revealing a meaningful smile, and then followed slowly. She crossed the yard and came to the house where Wang lived.

As soon as she reached the door, Xue Jinhua heard a childish voice coming from inside the house: "Mom..."

Then, another voice sounded, with a bit of severity and reproach: "Brother Fan, what are you yelling about?"

When Xue's mother came in, she didn't care about anything and just scolded.

When Xue Jinhua entered, she saw Fan Geer standing there with an innocent look on his face, not seeming to understand what he had done wrong. Xue Qinger, on the other hand, looked a little embarrassed, as if she was at a loss.

Xue Jinhua noticed that Xue Qing'er was holding the handkerchief with a little force, and it was obvious that she was not in a calm mood at the moment.

Today is a family dinner, and all who came are relatives and clansmen. They were also very surprised to see this scene.

An older man couldn't help but say, "Isn't this Brother Fan brought back by Yuxuan? Wasn't he said to be the orphan of his colleague? Why would he call the Crown Prince's Consort of Prince Zhuang's Mansion 'mother'?" His words were full of confusion and curiosity.
