"You are a divorced woman, worthless to begin with. If you risk your life for your children, it means you are not a mother in vain."

Jiang Xuejun said, not bothering to look at her again, and said coldly: "Take her away."

The two maids immediately grabbed the Third Madam and dragged her out of the room.

"My Lady, can this Third Lady keep her mouth shut?"

Jiang Xuejun snorted coldly: "Of course she can. She wants to live, but she wants her children to live even more. It's just..."

Her eyes grew fiercer. "I never thought that bitch Xu Wanruo was still alive! I was so happy when I said she committed suicide. God has mercy on me. I never thought she'd still be alive and well!"

"It must be that the eldest lady of the Xie family couldn't tolerate her and was just looking for an excuse to drive her out of the family."

"The eldest lady will naturally not tolerate such a despicable thing." Jiang Xuejun sneered, but there was still a glint of jealousy in her eyes.

"If it weren't for her, I would have been able to marry into the Xie family peacefully, why would I..."

Qing He hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, please don't mention the past anymore. Prince Xuan is a descendant of a noble family. How could he be inferior to the Xie family?"

Jiang Xuejun gritted her teeth in hatred: "How can he compare to Xie Xianyu?"

Apart from the fact that he has a nobler status as a prince, he is inferior to him in appearance, talent, ability and means.

She was sent to Prince Xuan's Mansion by her family, looking at the glamorous life, but the person she loved from beginning to end was Xie Xianyu. How could she be willing to accept this!

Every time she looked at King Xuan's face, she felt disgusted!

Jiang Xuejun pinched her palm fiercely: "Xu Wanruo, I can't let her go!"

-

Jinshangtang became more and more famous, and some wealthy ladies and daughters in the capital also became interested and came to visit.

Wanruo always invites guests to the second floor directly, where they can slowly choose the supplements and beauty creams that suit their taste.

Wanruo knows how to act and what to do in her dealings with others, and she is gentle in nature. She is liked by distinguished guests, who are willing to come more often.

As usual, Xiao Er chatted with the young ladies: "You are so thoughtful. Tomorrow is Mid-Autumn Festival, and you specially prepared this gift box for us. It's embarrassing for us."

Wan Ruo smiled and said, "It's natural to give gifts during the holidays. You are all regular customers of my store, so a small token of appreciation is nothing."

"Since you gave me this gift, I'd feel bad if I didn't take care of your business in the future."

"Hey, speaking of which, tomorrow is Mid-Autumn Festival and there will be a lantern festival in Beijing. Should we go and have a look?" someone suddenly brought it up.

"Of course I will! But last time during the Qing Dynasty Lantern Festival, bandits appeared in the capital and almost killed someone. I'm still a little scared."

"That's definitely not the case now. Ever since that incident, every Lantern Festival in the capital has been guarded by imperial guards. They are on high alert and will never allow any bandits to cause trouble again."

"Then let's go play!" The young ladies gathered their attention and asked Wanruo, "Xiaowei, do you want to play with us?"

Wanruo smiled and shook her head: "How can I have the time? The store will be busy on Mid-Autumn Festival. You guys can have fun."

"What a pity." Several little girls immediately discussed how to enjoy the lanterns during the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Wanruo raised her eyes and suddenly saw Suyue winking at her.

She stood up and walked out: "What's wrong?"

Qing'an appeared from the side and greeted with a smile: "Cousin."

Wan Ruo frowned. She felt bad every time she looked at him. "Is that so?"

Qing'an said with a smile: "My master said that he would like to invite you to Xiangrui Tower tomorrow."

"I'm busy." She refused without thinking.

Qing'an said, "The investigation at Jingzhao Prefecture has made some progress, and it really involves the young lady. It's a serious matter, and the young master said he wants to talk to the young lady in person."
