Xi Jiu'er returned from the manor all the way back into the evening. Although First Madame was unhappy, she still needed to properly arrange everything for Xi Jiu'er for the sake of being virtuous, so when Xi Jiu'er returned, the house was swept clean and the food was already prepared.

It had to be said that if the First Madame was his own, it would be extremely good. She was the one who killed her mother! The maids in the room had all been replaced, and Xi Jiu'er arranged a room for ex-sister-in-law and Liu Shui, with exactly three people, they could take care of each other and save time.

As Xi Jiu'er ate, he listened to the servant talk about the situation of the house. There were not many changes in the house, it was just that a new Madame had arrived ? Madame Bai. Since the Madame Bai was beautiful, she had to take care of it as well. Xi Hongsheng had already stayed in her room for the past few nights. Xi Jiu'er nodded his head but he did not mind, it had already been one or two days since Xi Hongsheng was lustful, he did not want to bother with the servants, if word of this got out, he would not have any face, so looking outside was not bad.

The maidservant also said that Madame Bai was a widow. If they were to get married, wouldn't that mean the husband would die? He had previously thought that this matter was ordinary, but now it seemed that this matter wasn't as simple as it seemed.

Widow? Xi Mansion, who had strict requirements for doors, actually brought a widow into his house. There must be a reason behind it, maybe it was someone First Madame had hired. In her previous life, when she was still alive, she already knew that First Madame would get some girls from the innocent people for Xi Hongsheng to choose from, and when Xi Hongsheng got bored of her, she would just kill him.

Xi Jiu'er hurriedly finished his meal and let ex-sister-in-law and Liu Shui go to sleep so that Liu Xiang could help him take a bath! In the shadow of the candle, Xi Jiu'er handed over Xi Jiu'er's arm that was as smooth as jade to Liu Xiang. Liu Xiang placed a paper bag beside him, which was covered with cinnabar powder. In the manor, Xi Jiu'er had unintentionally heard those elders discussing how to make a censer sand that was fake so it wouldn't be discovered.

First, he had to use a scalding silver needle to pierce the skin, and then he would use the word 'fast' to pierce the cinnabar into the skin. Only by repeatedly using the word 'repeatedly' a dozen times could its effect be seen.

Xi Jiu'er looked at Liu Xiang expressionlessly. Did it hurt? It still hurt, but this kind of pain was nothing compared to the headache he had in his previous life when he wanted to smash his head against a wall! Liu Xiang became more and more proficient at it, and finally, he finished using 'gatekeeping sand'. Seeing that it was really the case, Liu Xiang wiped away the sweat on her forehead.

"Go to sleep, let's go pay respects to the old Madame first." Xi Jiu'er told Liu Xiang to go back and sleep, and for a new servant to stand guard.

On the side, Xi Wanrong watched as her servant was beaten to such a state that she became extremely angry. Xi Jiu'er, just you wait, watch how I deal with you, you bitch!

The next morning, Xi Jiu'er got the servants to help him wash up, and after eating, he brought Liu Xiang to pay respects to the old Madame. When they went to greet the old Madame, Xi Wanrong and Xi Wanfeng were already there. But son Xi Wanrong was here to take care of Xi Jiu'er, so he woke up a long time ago and brought Si Ping along with him.

After Xi Jiu'er greeted everyone, the old Madame waved for her to come over with a smile. "Come over here and let Grandmother look at you."

Xi Jiu'er walked over obediently. When the old Madame saw how energetic she was, he laughed and said, "En, I see that you are being well-behaved now, and have reflected on it carefully. I feel a lot more gratified looking at you!" As she spoke, the old Madame took off the bracelet on her wrist and handed it over to Xi Jiu'er. Xi Jiu'er didn't dare to accept it at all.

"Grandmother, she's just being well-behaved in front of you, who knows how she's going to go crazy if she's in a place you can't see." Xi Wanrong said unhappily, she looked at the bracelet, she had thought about it for a long time yet still couldn't find the old Madame to give it to her, to give it to this bitch Xi Jiu'er, it was really too much. Last night, when she came back, her maidservant's face had still not recovered from the swelling, and she was still unable to see anyone.

The old Madame's face sunk. Xi Jiu'er hurriedly said, "Grandmother, Jiu Er's subordinate will do."

"Hehe ?" Jiu Er is still the most obedient! " The old Madame chuckled and his expression relaxed. This Xi Jiu'er was more sensible than Xi Wanrong, he felt gratified in his heart.

"Grandmother, my granddaughter also has something to give to Grandmother ?" Xi Jiu'er took out a small box from his bosom. The box did not look refined in the slightest, causing Xi Wanrong to snort in disdain, and said sarcastically, "Who is the Grandmother, to actually use such a thing to deceive an old man. Did you get it from the countryside?"

Xi Jiu'er ignored her and only opened the box. Lying inside was a buddhist pearl bracelet, Old Madame's eyes lit up, she knew about this area, more than anyone else. There were 108 beads on the bracelet and they were extremely small. She took it happily and looked at it. The scripture engraved on the small bead was extremely exquisite, and she immediately said happily: "Jiu Er understands me, the Grandmother likes this Buddhist chain a lot, a lot."

"As long as Grandmother likes it." Xi Jiu'er smiled and glanced at Xi Wanrong's indignant gaze. She smiled the most, as if to say "Aren't you Grandmother's favorite granddaughter?" Look at the Grandmother's current favorite is me! Xi Wanrong immediately became enraged, and he stood up and said: "Grandmother, granddaughter has something to say."

These words were definitely not good words. It was fine if he didn't want to hear it. The old Madame's expression became slightly cold, "Let's talk about what we have to say after. I don't want to hear it right now." He didn't want to affect his mood.

Xi Wanrong's face immediately turned red, staring at Xi Jiu'er for a moment before he sat down unwillingly. Xi Wanfeng saw that the two of them were quarreling again, so she naturally didn't care. It was not like she didn't know Xi Wanrong's temper, in case he got into trouble later on.

"Grandmother, what did Sister Jiu Er give you to make you so happy? My granddaughter seems to be just an ordinary buddhist bead. " Xi Wanfeng was known as the first talented girl, there were many places where she had dabbled in, and she had naturally seen through the string of Buddha beads, but in order to curry favor with the old Madame, she had purposely not seen through them.

"Do you know that there are 108 beads in the upper, 54 pearls in the middle, and 27 pearls in the lower. The meanings of each bead are different for you as well. These 108 beads represent 108 troubles ?" Xi Wanfeng listened attentively and nodded his head from time to time. Xi Jiu'er suddenly felt that the old Madame was different from Xi Wanfeng in pampering Xi Wanrong, and that this Xi Wanfeng seemed to be very happy with the old Madame and knew that he would give in.

Sitting on the chair, Xi Wanrong felt uncomfortable on both his left and right, as though he was sitting on pins and needles! Liu Xiang called Liu Xiang and took out the thing. Liu Xiang took out a small box from her bosom, the small box was extremely exquisite, it fit Xi Wanrong's taste, could it be that she was also a treasure? At least Xi Jiu'er, this little slut, was sensible.

"Elder Sister Rong, this is a gift from Jiu Er." Xi Jiu'er was just about to give it to Xi Wanrong, so he didn't want Xi Wanrong to snatch it away. When he opened it to see, it was only an ordinary mirror, but he immediately felt uncomfortable. Unhappily putting away the small copper mirror, he handed it over to Xi Jiu'er: "You should take this. Look at yourself in the mirror, hmph.

Xi Jiu'er raised his brows, "Elder Sister Rong doesn't want it?"

"No!" Who wants that damn thing? Xi Wanrong said indifferently, if not for the Old Madame by his side, he would probably ridicule Xi Jiu'er.

The old Madame asked Xi Wanrong to show him the item. The old Madame opened up a small copper mirror that was only the size of his palm, and though there was nothing special about it, it was still someone else's idea, so he should not have done it.

"Eh ?" "Behind the bronze mirror ?" Xi Wanfeng couldn't help but shout out when he saw the dazzling light emitted by the copper mirror. The old Madame looked back and drank, and surprisingly, it was made from colored glass. The glass was worth more than the jade, you know.

"Look at your eyes, you don't even want such a good treasure." The old Madame could not help but berate Xi Wanrong, who had short-sighted eyes. This made Xi Wanrong extremely embarrassed, and his face flushed red! In her heart, she was starting to regret. If she played with those noble Miss s in the future, she would definitely be envious to death when she brought out the bronze mirror. But she had already returned it back, and now she was going to return it back?

"Take it." How could the old Madame not know what she was thinking?

"Thank you, Grandmother." Xi Wanrong immediately received it with both hands, and looked at the copper mirror happily. His actions infuriated the old Madame. "Why are you thanking me, whoever gives you this thank you, don't you see that?"

After holding it in for a long time, just as Xi Jiu'er thought that she was about to suffocate to death, she finally said "Thank you". Xi Jiu'er smiled without hesitation: "It's good that Elder Sister Rong likes it, there's no need to thank me."

Pui, why didn't you say that just now? Xi Wanrong's face twisted, but looking at the small copper mirror in her hand, she could only endure.

Everyone thought that Xi Jiu'er would give them the brush, ink, paper and paper, just like that! Xi Jiu'er got someone to bring the screen over: "Big Sister Feng, I heard that the poems embroidered on the screen are absolute, so I bought it for you. I hope you like it." Actually, it was because this item was cheap.

The things she bought were obtained from everywhere, so she didn't spend too much money. As long as she had eye poison, she would be able to find good treasures. The ex-sister-in-law in there has done a great service!

Xi Wanfeng walked up to take a look. The screen did not listen to him and the embroidery was extremely good, looking like it had existed for a long time. She shifted her gaze to the poem, her red lips slightly parted. She did not expect Xi Jiu'er to find the next part of it, and she revealed a smile as well.
