After dying in the apocalypse, Mo Qian activated the Jade Magnolia Spatial Bracelet. Together with the ancient Qilin, Xiao Bai, she traveled through three thousand realms to collect faith power and...
The next day
Mo Qian was leisurely enjoying the service of her head maid when Hongxiu, the original owner's maid, walked in from outside the door.
"Princess, the jewelry you ordered from the Treasure Pavilion a few days ago has been delivered by the Treasure Pavilion staff."
After speaking, Hongxiu placed a box of jewelry in front of Moqian.
"Okay, I understand." After hearing Hongxiu's voice, Mo Qian slowly opened her eyes and then saw the box of jewelry.
Jade and glass hairpins, gilded kingfisher feather hairpins, sapphire blue and kingfisher feather silver hairpins, gold filigree and gemstone inlaid peony hairpins, gilded kingfisher feather hairpins, etc.
They are all top-quality items, and a single hairpin costs at least two hundred taels of silver.
These were specially ordered by the original owner to be given to Zhang Wanniang.
It was also because Zhang Wanniang was dressed too simply when she first entered the mansion that the original owner, out of love for her sister-in-law, sent all her jewelry and beautiful clothes to Zhang Wanniang's courtyard.
Worried that Zhang Wanniang might not like those styles, they specially ordered a batch from the Treasure Pavilion.
Although the original owner had a bad temper, she was extremely considerate of Pei Shangxuan.
Looking at these ornaments, if it were Mo Qian now, she wouldn't treat them with the same care as the original owner!
It benefited the other party for no reason.
"Put them away." Then, Mo Qian casually gestured to Jinzhu, the head maid who was in charge of managing the original owner's jewelry.
"Yes, Princess." Jinzhu's face showed surprise after hearing Moqian's words, as if she did not expect that the princess would not send it to Miss Zhang.
Instead, it should be put away.
After all, these hairpins and jewelry were specially made by the princess for the prince consort's younger sister.
However, for some reason, Jinzhu did as Moqian said.
In contrast to Jinzhu's compliance, Hongxiu looked puzzled.
"Princess, aren't these the gifts you were going to give to the person in Qingfeng Courtyard?"
"Why did you put it away?" The voice was full of curiosity.
"After all, I'm not her, so she might not like what I choose," Mo Qian casually offered an excuse.
"Princess, you've always played with pearls since you were little, you have excellent taste. If that girl from Qingfeng Courtyard still doesn't like you, she must be blind!"
After hearing Mo Qian's words, Hong Xiu looked indignant.
"You're quite the charmer today," Mo Qian said with a smile after hearing this.
"Princess, please stop praising her. If you keep praising her, her braids will stick up."
After placing the hairpin, Jinzhu approached and overheard Moqian and Hongxiu's conversation, teasing Hongxiu as she spoke.
"Sister Jinzhu, you're teasing me again," Hongxiu pouted and stomped her foot.
Just then, a maid walked in from outside.
"Princess, Miss Zhang from Qingfeng Courtyard is waiting outside."
"Yes, let her in."
A moment later, Zhang Wanniang walked in from outside the door, looking as delicate and graceful as a willow in the breeze.
Upon seeing someone enter the room, Hongxiu and Jinzhu, who were standing to the side, became serious and exuded the aura of the princess's head maids.
“Princess, I embroidered a handkerchief for you a few days ago, and I brought it to you today.”
"Thank you for your care these past few days, Princess."
"I apologize if the embroidery is not good, Your Highness." With that, Zhang Wanniang handed a handkerchief to Mo Qian.
Mo Qian glanced at it casually and then spoke to Hongxiu behind her.
"Hongxiu, put it away." Mo Qian said calmly, without taking it herself.
"Yes, Princess." Hongxiu took it directly from Zhang Wanniang's hands after hearing Moqian's words.
A look of disgust flashed in his eyes when he saw the rough pattern on the handkerchief.
Every item used by her princess was of the finest quality; only the most exquisite items were acceptable.
Such crude things are simply too offensive to the eye.
Even she doesn't need to.
When Zhang Wanniang saw that Mo Qian did not take it personally, a look of surprise flashed in her eyes.
Previously, the princess had taken good care of her, and on the surface, she was Pei Lang's younger sister. The princess shouldn't be reacting like this.
Then, on second thought, perhaps the pattern on the handkerchief wasn't very nice.
Although he didn't show his dissatisfaction on the surface, he felt in his heart that the princess was really difficult to please.
"Is there anything else?" Mo Qian then looked at Zhang Wan Niang, her face revealing no emotion.
“Princess, I…I want to go out. I have been taken care of by you since I entered the palace, but I have nothing to repay you with. I would like to go to the temple to ask you for a peace charm.” Zhang Wanniang then said with a face full of shame.
"Yeah, go if you want to."
"Thank you for your kindness, Princess." Afterwards, Zhang Wanniang sat for a while longer. Seeing that Mo Qian remained indifferent and made no other remarks, she gritted her teeth and took her leave.
"Princess, I'll be going now."
"Okay, go ahead."
Then, Zhang Wanniang got up and left.
After leaving Mo Qian's courtyard and returning to her own room, her expression turned grim.
She had heard from her subordinates that people from the Treasure Pavilion had arrived.
Thinking back to the time when the princess said she would make a batch of jewelry for her, she became a little restless.
So he casually picked up a handkerchief he had embroidered when he was bored and used it as a gift for the princess.
She was thinking that if the princess was happy, she would give her more jewelry.
Unexpectedly, not only did she not see the jewelry from the Treasure Pavilion, but the princess's attitude towards her also changed from being as warm as before.
He was quite annoyed when he heard that she was going to pray for her and ask for a peace charm.
To outsiders, she is Pei Lang's own sister and the princess's sister-in-law. If she is treated coldly and unkindly by Pei Lang, she will definitely complain to him.
Zhang Wanniang grew angrier the more she thought about it, and even seeing the exquisite embroidery that Pei Lang had brought her a few days ago dampened her spirits.
It was quite a contrast; before, the princess had acted as if she had to coax her into accepting it.
Although she pretended not to accept it, she couldn't bear to disappoint the princess's kindness under her insistence.
Now that the Treasure Pavilion has sent people to deliver the jewelry, the princess is acting coy and not treating it to her as before. It's truly despicable!
Zhang Wanniang gritted her teeth in resentment.
