    Her chest rose and fell, and she slammed the embroidered shed in her hand down on the couch with a sharp cry:

    “Even you are against me!”

    She got up and searched for scissors, vigorously cutting the embroidery in her hand, but her eyes filled with tears without realizing it.

    Xie Jialong had somehow been making rules for her these past few days, almost putting her harsh treatment on the table. The eldest young master seemed to favor her, rewarding her with countless gold, silver, and jewels, but in reality, whenever he came here, he didn’t want to listen to her, and only went to see Hao Ge’er every time.

    If this goes on, Caidie is afraid that her days in this house will only become more and more difficult, and even her own child, she doesn’t know how to keep it.

    Suddenly, Cai Die looked around and shouted in panic, “Where is Hao Ge’er, why haven’t I heard him cry for a long time? Wasn’t he carried away by Jing Xin Xuan!”

    Seeing this, Bitao hurriedly went forward to calm down, her voice soft: “Auntie, don’t worry, Mammy has already carried Hao Ge’er to the next side room to be properly settled, so you can rest at ease. Hao Ge’er is right under our noses, and won’t leave for a moment.”

    Cuizhu’s cheeks were still red and swollen from the slap, she hung her head low and carefully advised, “Auntie, you don’t need to worry too much. The Grand Master has already made it clear earlier that he will definitely not let the young master leave your side and go to Jing Xin Xuan.”

    When Cai Die heard this, she was like a firecracker that had been set on fire, and said sternly, “What do you know, you cheap servant girl? You people only know how to flatter the one from Jingxinxuan, and that slut, Xiangcai! As for the Young Master, he is also unreliable! My child, my Hao Ge’er, only I, only I can give him the best of everything!”

    “Auntie, it’s all the slave girl’s fault, you mustn’t be angry with yourself!”

    Cuizhu knew that Caidie was still complaining about her, and shouldn’t have received the young granny’s gift at the full moon banquet, so she could only step back and whisper, “The slave girl will wait outside first, if there is a need, you can call me at any time.”

    Seeing this, Bitao timely took out a few pillars of incense, and softly proposed: ”Auntie, this is the tranquilizing incense that the slave girl went to the temple to specially ask for you, I heard that this spice is unique, and it can help people to soothe their minds and sleep peacefully. You’ve just gotten out of the month, your body is weak, you really need to rest well in order to have enough strength to fight with those people, right? The slave girl will light this for you.”

    Cai Die nodded wearily, allowing Bitao to light the incense and candles, introducing that fragrance into the room, gradually diffusing it, and indeed feeling that her irritable mind was soothed quite a bit. She leaned back on the soft couch, closing her eyes and letting that fragrance linger at the end of her nose, but within a few breaths, her entire body also seemed to slow down, floating with that fragrance.

    Bitou saw Caidie slowly close her eyes, then gently approached her ears, pinching her voice and whispered: “Caidie sister, Xiaohong does not understand, since the young master can not be relied on, why do not you go to find the Marquis of Pingnan? That Xu Guang now got retribution, now can not have children, now his knees but a son and three daughters, are all common people, if Haogeer go to recognize the ancestor, Marquis of Pingnan House of the huge family business, we even if we can share a half a star, are enough for you and Hao brother the rest of their lives to eat and wear without worrying about it.”

    “Little Red, is it really you?” Cai Die only felt her eyelids sink so heavy that she couldn’t lift them up, but she said joyfully, “You’ve come to see sister, don’t you blame sister? It’s all my fault–“

    Bitao patiently soothed, “How could Xiao Hong blame sister, as long as sister is doing well, Xiao Hong is going to be happier than anything–“

    After the burning of an incense stick, Bitao walked out of the room in a graceful manner and smiled at Cuizhu, “The master slept quite peacefully, your face is still swollen, go and use an ice compress first, there is me here.”

    Cuizhu was slightly puzzled in her heart, her gaze lingered on Bitao for a moment, but in the end, she did not say much, but only whispered her thanks, and then hurriedly left.

    When Cuizhu’s figure disappeared out of sight, Bitao cautiously looked around to make sure no one was prying before quietly taking out a fireworks tube from her sleeve.

    With a flick of her wrist, the fireworks cut through the darkness like shooting stars and shot straight up into the sky. They blossomed in the air with a brilliant light, like a blooming flower, instantly lighting up the silent night.

    At the same time, in a small hidden courtyard next to the Biyun Courtyard, Xiaolan was nervously looking up at the sky, her eyes closely following the fireworks rising from the Caiyi Butterfly Courtyard, and she couldn’t help but say with joy, “Sister Xiang Capsicum! It’s done!”
