After tidying up, Su Miao opened the brocade box that had been delivered along with her dress.
Inside was a gold hairpin with flowing pearls and a butterfly design, the latest style that Su Miao liked.
Just looking at the materials, it's already beyond the reach of ordinary people.
Tao'er glanced at it and couldn't help but tease, "Master treats Miss so well."
"He meant well, but it also reminded me that the day is getting closer." As she said this, a pang of pain welled up in Su Miao's heart.
She was an ordinary woman, utterly unremarkable, yet she knew shame and never overstepped her bounds.
She also wants to live an honest life, find someone she loves, and live out her life peacefully!
But who knew... things wouldn't go as planned.
As soon as Su Miao closed her eyes, those painful memories came flooding back, making it hard for her to breathe...
She ran her fingertips along the small print on the bottom of the box, her nose tingled, and tears streamed down her face.
This is the real her...
To vent her hatred, she chose to infiltrate the Duke's mansion by using the identity of Doctor Su's daughter.
Once I got in, several years passed.
Over the years, she has won people's hearts, learned to read people's expressions, and gradually improved how people in the mansion perceive her.
Shamelessness and lack of manners meant nothing to her compared to her hatred.
She didn't want to be the bad guy, but the other person's actions forced her to be one!
Losing a loved one is already painful enough; how could she let the sinner go free and enjoy himself?
"Miss, please don't feel bad. It's not good for your health if you're like this," Tao'er quickly said.
"It's okay, I'm not that fragile, don't worry."
"The young master must have been suspicious to arrange for the young lady to stay here. Should we inform the master?"
"Need not."
Shen Changji was merely suspicious; he couldn't do anything to her, much less kill her.
Because the power behind her is enough to rival Shen Changji.
That's why she was able to climb into the long, silent bed so easily that night!
"Alright. If you wish to leave, just say so. My master said he would do everything he could to help you get out unscathed."
"I will not leave until I have avenged my great grudge," Su Miao said firmly.
Tao'er nodded, without any intention of forcing anything, because her mistress had given instructions that everything should be left to Su Miao.
All they need to do is appear when Su Miao is in danger and provide assistance as soon as she needs it.
"The Liu family will probably come over in a few days to discuss the eldest son's affairs. This time, they'll likely set a wedding date soon," Tao'er added.
Upon hearing this, a hint of mockery flashed in Su Miao's eyes.
Settle down? I'm afraid I'm not fortunate enough to have that connection.
She will not allow Liu Jiaojiao to successfully marry Shen Changji!
I'm afraid that on that day, Liu Jiaojiao might not have the ability to come and discuss it!
She was determined to take this man, Shen Changji, by her very own hands!
"Proceed as before!" Su Miao ordered in a deep voice.
The more dangerous the place she is right now, the safer she is!
...
Taipu Mansion
Liu Jiaojiao looked at the dress that had been delivered, her eyes sparkling with joy.
It seems... Shen Changji still has feelings for her, right?
Liu Jiaojiao couldn't help but glance at herself in the mirror a couple of times, after all, she wasn't bad-looking either.
"Ziji really dotes on you!" Lady Liu walked in, waving her handkerchief and smiling.
“Yes!” Liu Jiaojiao picked up the dress and held it up to herself.
It looks nice, but the size isn't quite right for her; it's a bit small, but she can still wear it.
A pang of sadness flashed through Liu Jiaojiao's heart.
However... she could use this opportunity to have Shen Changji personally measure her size.
She was practically his legal wife, so some things were bound to happen sooner or later.
She wanted to take things a step further with him...
Thinking of this, Liu Jiaojiao's cheeks flushed with embarrassment.
"Jiaojiao, your mother has some good news to tell you. You can stop taking the medicine tomorrow after you finish tonight's dose. You must take good care of yourself and grow up healthy and strong!" Madam Liu said with a beaming smile.
Hearing this, Liu Jiaojiao was even more delighted.
Her health had always been poor, and since that incident, her body had become even weaker than before. Over the years, she had been relying on herbal medicine to regulate her condition.
Now I can finally stop taking the medication.
This break means that sooner or later she will be able to give birth to a child that belongs to her brother Changji.
"That's wonderful! That's really wonderful! It's like the Bodhisattva has blessed us!" Liu Jiaojiao exclaimed happily.
"Your mother brought you this. You must learn how to please your husband!" With that, Madam Liu stuffed the booklet into Liu Jiaojiao's arms.
When Liu Jiaojiao saw the cover, her face flushed even more.
Shen Changji has spent most of his life in the military, and is tall and strong, exuding a strong masculine aura. I wonder... whether she will be able to withstand it...
Liu Jiaojiao thought about it for a moment, and her ears couldn't help but turn red.
But she didn't know that Su Miao, who had just finished her meal, was strolling in her backyard when she happened to see what Liu Jiaojiao wanted to see.
Liu Jiaojiao was still thinking about the long, quiet moment when she was getting dressed, but what Su Miao saw...
