After Lady Gao finished selecting the jewelry, Fucha Mingyu instructed her maid to take the jewelry tray to Consort Su and Lady Su.
The maidservant soon arrived at Xueying's courtyard.
"Consort, these are the jewelry pieces that the Princess asked me to send!" The maid carefully handed the box to A'Luo.
A'luo glanced at the jewelry and, finding it to be of mediocre quality, became furious. It must be that the principal wife disliked the concubine, and deliberately sent such inferior jewelry.
"Princess, come and see!" A'luo called out to Xueying with a wronged expression. She was a princess who was always bullied because she was too easy to talk to. She never talked back or fought back, so others went even further.
Xueying noticed A'luo's displeasure and went over to take a look. She found that the jewelry in the box was indeed of lower quality than what she had received before. She thought to herself that although her relationship with the principal wife was not good in the past, she would never be so stingy with jewelry and reward money. Why now...
"Is this all the jewelry that the First Princess Consort sent?" Xueying asked the maid who brought the jewelry.
"Yes, Consort, after you've finished choosing, I still need to deliver it to Consort Su." The maid said timidly, knowing she really didn't want to do such a chore. Everyone in the mansion knew about the relationship between the principal wife and the concubine.
"Then, who else has chosen jewelry?" Xueying understood the maid's implication; it seemed only she and Madam Su hadn't made any selections. Madam Gao…
Although Xueying was an unfavored concubine, the pure bloodline of the Ulanara family and her innate aristocratic air instilled fear in the woman before her. "Reporting to Concubine... Princess Gao has already made her selections." If it weren't for the fact that she would have to send the selections to Madam Su afterward, she really wouldn't want to stay here for another second.
It seems that Lady Gao and the Empress Dowager have an unusual relationship. I originally thought that Lady Gao simply disliked me, but I didn't expect that she would now join forces with Fucha Mingyu to try to harm me.
Xueying picked out a few of the worst items from the jewelry box and then dismissed the maid.
A'Luo asked in confusion, "Princess, why did you only choose so few items?"
Seeing A Luo standing up for her, Xue Ying smiled and said, "The rest is all for the Su family. She's pregnant now, and I don't want her to worry about this kind of thing."
"You always think of others, when will you ever think of yourself!" This princess wasn't like this before; she'd never suffered such humiliation. Now that the Fujin (princess's wife) is bullying her right in front of her, she's still thinking about whether others feel comfortable or not.
"A'Luo, don't worry about me. Come and see if there's any jewelry you like. Take it if you do." Although Xueying didn't say it aloud, she was thinking a lot. If Fucha Mingyu really intended to join forces with the Gao family to deal with her, she had to think of a way to avoid being at a disadvantage.
A'Luo felt helpless. Every time she talked to Gege about such things, she would deliberately change the subject. She didn't know when Gege's personality had changed. She had grown up in the Ulanara family since childhood, and the people of the Ulanara family were all tough and unyielding. Gege used to be intolerant of any dissent, and everyone, regardless of age or gender, had inherited the master's temperament very well. But now?
A Luo could only sigh and take away the jewelry that Xue Ying had chosen.
