As Yang Xiuzhu spoke, she glanced timidly at Su's mother and Lu Qingyan. In everyone's eyes, she was a pitiful little thing.
In everyone's eyes, Su's mother and Lu Qingyan became man-eating tigresses.
Lu Qingyan took in everyone's gazes, a slight smile playing on her lips as she looked at the person before her: "Yang Xiuzhu, you still remember you're a Yang family woman, but do you even know you're a concubine of the Su family?"
A married daughter is like water spilled from a cup; even as a concubine, Yang Xiuzhu is still a member of the Su family, and every action she takes must follow the Su family's rules.
After Lu Qingyan finished speaking, she turned around and followed behind Su's mother: "Mother, let's go."
The two entered through the main gate, leaving Yang Xiuzhu with only their backs to them.
Without saying much, it only made it seem like Yang Xiuzhu was completely ignorant of manners and etiquette.
Watching the mother and daughter leave, Yang Xiuzhu's fingernails almost dug into her flesh. She had been in the Su household for a month, captivating Su's father to the point of obsession, all because he was infatuated with her face and body. Before she could even make a move against Lu Qingyan, her face had become a grotesque, inhuman mess, and all her efforts had been in vain.
The only thing that could make her happy was that she had finally touched upon Lin Ke, the heir of the Marquis of Anyuan, whom she had longed for but could not have in her previous life. Although it was just an unexpected night, and she was completely unaware of it, it had already become ingrained in her soul.
Finally, Lin Ke came to the Su residence willing to take responsibility for her, but she was already unable to leave the Su residence.
She had already lost the moment she entered the Su family as a concubine.
"Su Xiaoyao, you're the one who ruined all of this! I'll make sure you're utterly disgraced and die a horrible death!"
Unaware that Yang Xiuzhu, lost in her own fantasies, was observing her sinister expression and whispering behind her back, "That Yang Xiuzhu is indeed a femme fatale. You didn't notice the expression on her face just now. If you were standing in front of her, she might have devoured you alive."
"I've only ever heard that Yang's daughters are beautiful. Tsk tsk, if everyone were like Yang Xiuzhu, who would dare to marry her?"
The murmurs grew quieter, and Yang Xiuzhu, being no martial arts expert, naturally couldn't hear them anymore. She only felt that the way people looked at her seemed to have changed, but she didn't understand whether these changes were good or bad.
Su's mother had many close friends. Once she entered the Yang State Duke's mansion, she chatted with several people, mostly about trivial matters at home, how her children were doing, and gossip about other people.
Several people even inquired about Lu Qingyan, both openly and secretly, which greatly displeased Su's mother. Was her beautiful, delicate daughter really destined to be taken away by a scoundrel?
Su's mother spoke up to send her daughter away: "I come here every year, and I'm tired of seeing even the best flowers. This is your first time here, so let Chunyan show you around."
Lu Qingyan nodded and replied, "Yes."
Inside the Yang State Duke's mansion, there were many precious chrysanthemum varieties. Green Peony, Phoenix Spreading Wings, West Lake Willow Moon... there was a pot of them every few steps.
At first glance, these were quite interesting, but after watching them a lot, they just seemed so-so.
Lu Qingyan was walking lazily on the artificial hill when she suddenly saw two women standing together in front of her, who looked about five points alike.
They seemed to be talking about something, or perhaps arguing, and their expressions were quite agitated, which piqued Lu Qingyan's curiosity.
She crept closer and then overheard what the two people were saying.
"Yue Qin, why do you have to say things in someone else's yard?"
