How can there be such a shameless woman? She's like a piece of meat on a rolling pin.
"How do you know he volunteered? He's just being loyal. If it weren't for you saving him, would he be attracted to you?" Shen Hui sneered, "Apart from this, how can you compare to the noble ladies of the capital?"
"That's true. It's my fault for not having a father of noble status!" She sighed and nodded in agreement, "But what does this have to do with whether your brother likes me?"
"They're not a good match, do you think it matters?"
"But beauty is in the eyes of the beholder."
"Are you worthy of Xi Shi?"
"Sister, why do you always want to break up this couple?" Xia Tian was helpless. Why was this young lady so stubborn?
"Because I don't want my brother to become a laughing stock in the entire capital."
"Okay, whatever you want. Just go talk to your brother. If he agrees, I'll leave right away." She gave up struggling. She could see that her elder sister just disliked her, and no matter how much she said, it would be useless.

Thinking about what the eldest lady said just now, that she would come again tomorrow, Xia Tian felt a little headache.
This once or twice can be used to relieve boredom, but who can stand it every day?
No, we can't just sit there and wait for death.
Xia Tian sat up suddenly. If one day she could no longer stay in the Marquis' Mansion, she would need a place to stay.
She made about seven or eight hundred taels of silver from the braised food business, and she used almost half of it to buy various foods and put them in the space.
Now she has less than four hundred taels of silver on hand.
She can't afford to buy a yard in Beijing yet.
