"Brother Mu Bai, you said Sister is back?"
Jiang Mubai nodded. He was filled with anger whenever Ye Jintang was mentioned, and he wished he could teach that vicious woman a lesson.
"Xue Rou, you were right before. Ye Jintang does indeed know some low-level sorcery!"
“Even the fact that my mother has been in a coma for so long is directly related to her.”
Su Xuerou looked terrified. "Brother Mu Bai, what should we do now that things are like this?"
“My sister has never liked me. If I continue to stay in the Marquis’s mansion…” Su Xuerou’s body trembled slightly, as if she was extremely afraid of Ye Jintang’s appearance.
Jiang Mubai felt even more heartbroken seeing Su Xuerou like this.
"Xue Rou, don't be afraid. This is the Marquis's residence. No matter how capable Ye Jintang is, he can't cause any trouble here."
"Brother Mu Bai..."
"As for agreeing to marry you, once Mother is fully conscious, I will have people begin preparations and will certainly make a grand gesture in this matter."
Jiang Mubai's words were like a reassurance to Su Xuerou.
Even if Ye Jintang is the mistress, so what? A woman who cannot win her husband's favor will eventually become an abandoned woman.
But she is the new mistress of the Marquis's mansion.
After leaving the main hall, Su Xuerou's face was full of pride. If she hadn't sent someone to the Minister's Mansion to deliver a message, she didn't know how long she would have stayed in the Dali Temple. It was because of this that her father came to the Marquis's Mansion with her.
He also revealed his identity to Jiang Mubai.
"Second Miss, aren't we going back to the West Courtyard?"
Cui'er, who was following Su Xuerou, saw her heading in a completely different direction and offered a reminder.
Su Xuerou snorted coldly, "Of course I know that."
Although she was recognized by Minister Su, she could not appear in the Minister's residence. As for the Marquis's residence, although Jiang Mubai informed everyone of her status as a secondary wife, these verbal promises did not count until she actually entered the residence.
At present, the only person who can pose a threat to her is Ye Jintang.
If only that bitch could just disappear completely.
Even if she couldn't, she couldn't let the other person have it too easy. It would be best if she could make Ye Jintang realize his true identity.
"Didn't the Marquis say that Ye Jintang has returned? Of course I must go and pay her a visit."
Su Xuerou snorted coldly and strode towards the courtyard where Ye Jintang was.
Little did she expect that everything here, including what Su Xuerou and the maid told her, was told to Ye Jintang by the little bee without missing a single word.
Ye Jintang found it all amusing. In the end, even if Su Xuerou was acknowledged by Minister Su, she was still just an illegitimate daughter, and her status in the Marquis's mansion was even more awkward.
Does she think that having Jiang Mubai will make things different?
It's truly naive to think that way.
However, she came here to cause trouble as soon as she got back. I really don't know if Su Xuerou is too confident or just too stupid to know her own limitations.
Since that's the case, and she happens to have nothing to do right now, she might as well pass the time.
Green Lotus, who was in the courtyard, heard footsteps approaching. Looking in the direction of the sound, she saw two figures coming this way.
"Su Xuerou?"
Green Lotus almost cried out in surprise at her appearance. Wasn't this person already imprisoned in the Dali Temple? How come she was released after only a few days?
Just then, Su Xuerou entered Ye Jintang's courtyard. Upon hearing Lühe call her by her name, she immediately showed displeasure and sneered, "It seems that some people's maids are just like their masters, with no manners at all."
Green Lotus was immediately displeased upon hearing Su Xuerou's words.
"Miss Su, please be careful with your words!"
"What Miss Su? How dare you address my second young lady by her name like that!"
Cui'er, who was standing next to Su Xuerou, immediately began to scold Lühe.
"Second Miss, whose second young lady are you?" Green Lotus was even more confused. There was no doubt that the person in front of her was Su Xuerou. As far as she knew, wasn't this person an orphan? How did she become some kind of second young lady after coming out of the Dali Temple? It was really suspicious.
Seeing Lühe's puzzled look, Cui'er became even more smug, as if introducing Su Xuerou's identity was a momentous event.
"Let me tell you, the woman standing in front of you is the second young lady of our Minister's Mansion."
"The Minister's residence... wait, I don't remember there being a second young lady in the Minister's residence."
Green Lotus knew all this because before her young lady got married, the eldest daughter of the Minister's mansion had many disagreements with her young lady and even spoke ill of her repeatedly.
The reason was that their young lady won first place in a competition, but afterwards she was targeted by Miss Su.
Now, how come there's another second young lady?
When Su Xuerou heard what Lühe said, her anger was completely ignited, especially Lühe's statement that there was no second young lady in the Minister's mansion, which made her feel extremely humiliated.
It was as if her existence as the second young lady was something that couldn't be brought to light.
"Cui'er, go up and slap her hard!" Su Xuerou ordered Cui'er with a fierce expression.
"yes!"
Upon receiving Su Xuerou's order, Cui'er strode forward, making a move to quickly take action against Lühe.
Green Lotus was not afraid of Cui'er at all; her only concern was that the two of them would disturb her young mistress's rest.
Inside the house, Ye Jintang had known all along that Su Xuerou had brought people here. The reason she didn't go out was to see how Lühe would handle the situation.
“Miss Su, no matter your status, this is the madam’s courtyard. If you don’t leave, don’t blame me for being impolite.”
At this moment, Lühe also made it clear that Ye Jintang was the real person.
Su Xuerou scoffed at this and angrily shouted at Cui'er, "What are you waiting for? Make your move now!"
She really is someone close to Ye Jintang, just as detestable as her master.
The next second, a scream was heard. Cui'er's wrist was grabbed hard and pushed forcefully, causing her to fall to the ground.
Su Xuerou was furious when she saw this, and shouted angrily, "You lowly servant, how dare you lay a hand on my people!"
She knew that Ye Jintang was currently inside the house, and attacking Ye Jintang's maid was tantamount to slapping her mistress in the face.
In response, Su Xuerou simply stepped forward after Cui'er fell to the ground.
Green Lotus didn't care about Su Xue Rou's identity. Her mistress had said before that if anyone came looking for trouble, there was no need to be polite.
Moreover, even if Su Xuerou were the Marquis's future concubine, she dared to be so arrogant before even entering the household.
As a result, Su Xuerou fell to the ground just like Cui'er.
"You...you've gone too far!" Su Xuerou never expected that a maid would dare to lay a hand on her, her future mistress.
Ye Jintang watched this scene quietly, clearly very satisfied with Lühe's behavior, which made her decision to keep Lühe by her side all this time worthwhile.
"What happened?" Ye Jintang came out of the house and looked at Lühe.
"Miss, did I disturb you just now?"
Green Lotus came up to Ye Jintang and asked her.
