Chapter 520: Do you think she is a beggar?
Apart from a crystal clear jade hairpin inlaid with finger-sized pearls, there were also silver hairpins and silk flowers on her bun, which was completely different from the outfit of Le Zhengting and her daughter.
"Aunt, why don't you buy new clothes for Madam Shao? Isn't this one a little too shabby?"
Xiao Mi immediately smiled and said, "Yes, sister-in-law, if you don't have time to take care of these little things, why don't you leave it to me. I have some new clothes that you haven't worn yet, which are much better than this. Why don't I send someone to get them and let Madam Shao change into them! This outfit is really not suitable for going out! If you don't know, you might think that you look down on me and deliberately treat me badly!"
Qiao Xuan looked at Xiaomi in surprise and chuckled, "I don't quite understand what Second Madam said. I'm a guest, so I should wear my own clothes. How can it be reasonable for Auntie to treat me badly? I'm not from the Lezheng family!"
Did she think she was a profiteer? Sorry, she took it for granted!
"We are a country family, so it's just right to dress like this. This jade hairpin was given to me by my aunt, but I feel a little embarrassed! Since Madam Jia invited me to dinner, she must know my background. If she dislikes me, she shouldn't have invited me. Since she invited me, she won't dislike me. Second Madam, don't you think so?"
Qiao Xuan heard from the eldest lady that Madam Jia was Xiaomi's best friend and was on good terms with Xiaomi, so naturally she helped Xiaomi with everything.
Then Xiaomi must have already told Madam Jia about her own background.
Qiao Xuan dressed according to her status, openly and honestly. If anyone laughed at her, she could fight back, and the eldest lady would help her. But if she dressed flashily with shining pearls and hairpins, she would be ridiculed and mocked.
Hearing her say this, Xiaomi felt inexplicably aggrieved, as well as secretly ashamed, as if someone had seen through her.
"If Madam Jia disliked it, she wouldn't have invited you. But you are our guest, so what's wrong with dressing up nicely?"
Le Zhengting once again spoke out: "Madam Shao, my mother is so kind! After all, Madam Shao probably won't have many opportunities to attend banquets in the future, wouldn't it be a pity if she doesn't dress up nicely?"
Madam Le Zheng raised her eyebrows and frowned slightly, but she only glanced at Le Zheng Ting and said nothing.
It seems that Xiaomi has spoiled this niece.
It's not easy for her brother-in-law to raise two daughters into useless people.
"No need," Qiao Xuan didn't mind what the mother and daughter said, smiling faintly: "I'm fine like this!"
"Okay, both of you should stop talking." Madam Le Zheng said calmly, "Xiao Xuan is a guest, so just listen to her. I think Xiao Xuan looks good dressed like this! It suits her very well!"
Xiao Mi smiled bitterly: "Since my sister-in-law has said so, then I will listen to her."
She secretly looked at Qiao Xuan and thought that Qiao Xuan must be unwilling to accept this. After all, with her status, if it weren't for her kindness, how could she be qualified to attend the banquet of the noble ladies in the provincial capital?
What a rare opportunity, how could she not want to dress up and appear beautifully?
Is there any woman in the world who doesn’t like beautiful clothes and jewelry?
Forget it, Xiaomi sneered secretly in her heart. It would be interesting if she hated her sister-in-law in the future.
