C30 Wear Dress

Although Su Zijin was happy that someone would be willing to come and fetch this hot potato, if she acted too straightforwardly, it would arouse suspicion and turn into a bad thing.

Thus, despite the joy on his face, he did not reveal even the slightest bit of it. Instead, there was a trace of unwillingness and grievance within his surprise.

"Grandmother, how can I do that? I have already drawn up the program for the feast. If I were to lend the Dance Dress to Second Sister, what should I do?" Su Zijin's voice was laced with resentment.

A trace of displeasure flashed across the old lady's eyes when she heard Su Zijin's disobedience, but it disappeared in a flash. She still kindly took Su Zijin's hand and advised softly, "Look at you, your grandmother isn't done yet. Your dancing skills are not as good as yours, so if the two of them performed the same way, it would be hard to avoid a competition. However, if it wasn't for that, the three of you would have been even better off together. "

"This …" On the surface, Su Zijin looked troubled, but in her heart, she was overjoyed.

Just as she was thinking about how she could get the madame to change her name, before she could even open her mouth, the madame had already paved her way.

"Zijin, Grandmother knows that you have been wronged, but as the direct daughter and the eldest sister, you must consider Su Mansion for your sisters, right? If one person gets to be as happy as the other three, the eldest sister will be better, what do you say?"

She paid attention to her every move, and when she saw that the anger between her brows had dissipated quite a bit, she immediately added in a small voice: "Besides, no matter how good your sister is, she is still a virgin. How could she surpass you? If you're not generous, how could you be any better? Grandmother is doing this for your own good."

For my own good?

Su Zijin harrumphed coldly in her heart as she looked at the benevolent expression on the madame's face. How shameless.

She would only do it for her own good. She was only helping Su Ying so that she wouldn't have the upper hand and escape her control.

It's a pity, Grandmother. You really did scheme against me by mistake. This time, I will definitely follow your instructions. It's just that the result won't be as you expected.

"Since Grandmother has said so, let's do it." Su Zijin nodded reluctantly. While the madame and Su Ying were rejoicing, she asked, "But I have a request?"

"Request? "What is it?" The old mistress' face darkened.

"I hope that no one else knows about this matter for the time being. Grandmother, you also know that tomorrow, we will be handing in the program. If someone were to find out about our temporary changes to the program, I'm afraid it would fall into their mouths."

"I almost forgot about that!" The old mistress was suddenly enlightened. She was just thinking about how to beat Su Zijin up, but she had forgotten about the important matter.

Their Su Mansion were strong enough to be the talk of the town, and many people were watching them. If today's matter were to spread, wouldn't that be creating trouble for themselves?

"Don't worry, Zijin. Grandmother knows about it. Only the three of us know about what happened today."

Thank you, Grandmother. As for the new program, Zijin has not decided yet, but I believe Grandmother will take care of it for me. I will be going back first.

Su Zijin stood up and was about to leave, but before she could move, the Countess had already pressed her hand down and said with a smile, "Let maidservant go back and take it, you haven't even finished breakfast, and besides, it will be time to say good night. Then, you can go back with your mother."

A trace of pride flashed through Su Zijin's eyes. She was waiting for the madame to say something.

Who was the madame? She had been in the inner chamber for so many years and was born paranoid, so she would naturally suspect that Ning Xuemo was not convinced and wanted to go back to do something. Thus, she didn't give her any chance.

It was a pity that the old lady could not calculate all the things that had happened. The Dance Dress had long been in a passive position.

What Su Zijin wanted was an opportunity to thoroughly remove all her suspicions. Otherwise, she wouldn't be able to control herself when she was involved.

"Alright, then I'll listen to grandmother." Su Zijin sat back down obediently and said to Xia Hee beside her: "Go to my room and fetch the Dance Dress. Remember not to let anyone find out, or else there will be people gossiping again."

The madame's face stiffened at these words. It was hard to tell if Su Zijin did it on purpose or not.

If others saw this, they would talk about it. Naturally, this was what happened today.

Su Zijin's Purple Stone Cottage was called over in the morning, and in less than an hour, maidservant brought over a Dance Dress. Doesn't that mean that it was clear that this young miss was being bullied again, and it was even the old mistress who was bullying her?

However, the madame was not in a good mood to be angry about it. She just felt a little displeased with Su Zijin.

Su Zijin did not care whether the madame was happy or not. For someone like her, no matter how much you tried to please her, she would not treat you with the slightest bit of mercy. If necessary, she would throw you out without mercy.

Concubine Faang, for example, was an example of iron-clad determination.

Therefore, when the matter came to an end, Su Zijin did not say much more and just quietly ate her breakfast. For a moment, the entire hall was silent, until Xia Hee brought the Dance Dress over to them, breaking the silence.

Looking at the Dance Dress that was displayed in front of her, even the old lady could not help but reveal a look of surprise.

She had never thought that Marquis Ann's Mansion which had long been in ruins could still bring out such a good thing. She had indeed looked down on them, as there were still three thousand nails on the broken boat.

At this moment, the old lady was glad that she did not chase Su Zijin away to the manor, otherwise, how could she blow out the things related to Marquis Ann's Mansion. Although Su Zijin had regained some of her strength, they were still in her hands.

Looking at the old mistress' unconcealable excitement and scheming, Su Zijin snorted coldly.

Although the madame had been a noblewoman for so many years, she was still a woman from the countryside, and her eyesight was short-sighted. How could she be able to scheme against Marquis Ann's Mansion? In this life, she was the only one who would be tricked.

"Grandmother, I've finished my breakfast. The Dance Dress has also arrived. I need to go back and think about the program since I don't have much time." With her goal achieved, Su Zijin didn't want to stay here any longer.

"That's true. Then go back and think about it. Grandmother will take care of the program for you." After seeing the Dance Dress, the madame's gaze became warmer, as if Su Zijin was a shining gold spindle.

Su Zijin turned around and walked out of the side hall without saying anything.

"Don't tell anyone about what happened today. Don't let Liu Zhu keep an eye on Chun Lan. She has to report every single one of her actions." The moment they walked out of the Purple Stone Cottage, Su Zijin carefully ordered Xia Hee in a low voice.

"Yes sir!"
