Scheme of the Official Descendant

Although Ren Yaoqi broke away from the fetters of her family in her previous lifetime, as she erroneously believed in her blood-relatives’ speech and views about sacrificing everything for the family’...

Chapter 184: Handle (2/3)

Xiang Qin said angrily, "How could it be such a coincidence? There's oil on the steps there, not anywhere else? Everyone knows our young lady always takes a shortcut through there when she eats in the morning! Young lady sent someone to investigate, but unexpectedly, the maidservant accompanying Miss Nine came to complain, saying that a thief broke into Madam Fang's yard last night, and perhaps a servant from another courtyard stole the oil from the kitchen. She also said that she would send someone to Baihe Town to ask the old lady for a few more people to come over to prevent unrest in the family."

After hearing this, Ren Yaoqi could only sigh. After all, Ren Yaohua was still too young.

Xiang Qin looked at Ren Yaoqi with some grievance and said, "Fifth Miss, don't you think they are too arrogant? They live in our Ren family's house, and they dare to hurt our girl! We can't just let it go like this!"

Ren Yaoqi glanced at Xiang Qin and said, "What else? Can you find any evidence against him?"

Xiangqin pursed her lips and snorted.

Ren Yaoqi shook her head: "They have something on you, so they are not afraid of you causing any trouble. Ultimately, Third Sister is in the wrong in this matter."

Xiang Qin wanted to say something, but she opened her mouth but couldn't utter a word. Who made them inferior to her? Xiang Qin had already cursed the bad servant in her heart for eight hundred times.

"I know about this. You should go back first. Tell Third Sister to take good care of your injuries and put aside the matters with Madam Fang and Ninth Sister for the time being. Don't even think about causing trouble for them."

Xiang Qin was still unwilling to give in, and muttered, "Then the Third Miss suffered a loss in vain?"

Ren Yaoqi glanced at her with a half-smile: "Why bother arguing about such a thing? It's just childish stuff! You're really promising!"

Xiang Qin had been feeling rather listless at first, but upon hearing this, she suddenly came to her senses. Her eyes lit up, and she asked flatteringly, "Could it be that Miss Fifth has a brilliant idea?"

Ren Yaoqi didn't speak immediately. She stared at him and thought for a moment, wondering what she was weighing. After a while, she sighed, turned away, and waved to Xiang Qin.

Xiang Qin hurried forward and huddled beside Ren Yaoqi, listening to the brilliant advice of her own fifth young lady. She nodded as she listened, and by the end, her spirits were high.

"Go ahead, but don't let anyone catch you this time." Ren Yaoqi waved his hand.

Xiang Qin nodded rapidly: "Yes, Miss Fifth, don't worry. This time, I and Sister Wujing are watching over it personally, so there will be no mistakes. If anything goes wrong, Miss Fifth, just punish me." Xiang Qin rubbed her hands together, looking like she was ready for a big fight.

Ren Yaoqi was both amused and confused when he saw this, and sent her away.

Mrs. Fang Liu was a capable woman, having had her hands full since arriving in Yunyang City. The Fang family was a well-established family in Jiangnan, and Liu was very generous in her interactions with the various families in Yunyang City. Furthermore, she was good at conversation and had good manners, so many families were willing to associate with her.

A few days after returning from the Lin family, Liu took Ren Yaoying and her son out for a walk, hoping that her son and niece could make more friends.

Fang Shuzhou, the young master of the Fang family, is extremely busy. Regardless of whether he is willing to attend the various tea parties with young men and women from various families, Mrs. Fang has arranged a full schedule for him.
