This marquis's wife was the most greedy and heartless person. After the original owner was imprisoned, most of her dowry was pocketed by the marquis's wife.

Su Wanti deliberately wanted to play a trick on her.

Her delicate hands took out a square brocade box from her sleeves. "The gift for my mother-in-law cannot be sloppy, nor can it be given through someone else's hands. This gift was personally selected by my daughter-in-law at Jinxiu Pavilion, and it is worth a million dollars."

Jinxiu Pavilion is the most famous jewelry store in Beijing.

Su Wanti deliberately whetted the Marquis's appetite. She spoke slowly and opened the brocade box.

"Wow!" Everyone's eyes lit up and were amazed.

There lay quietly in the brocade box a pair of jade bracelets, transparent and full of green, of high quality, rarely seen in the world.

The Marquis's wife's previous resentment disappeared, and she stared at the jade bracelet, as if trying to see sparks.

This marquis' wife was not originally the daughter of a noble family. Her father was only a sixth-rank official. If the marquis' family had not declined, she would not have been the marquis' wife.

After entering the Marquis' Mansion, he found that the business of such a huge mansion was limited, and the annual revenue was only enough to maintain the operation of the mansion.

It would be a joke if people told others that she, a marquis's wife, was living in poverty and didn't even have many gold and silver jewellery to show off.

This gift from Su Wanti really touched her heart.

While Su Wanti was showing off the pair of jade bracelets, she secretly glanced outside the door.

Normally, Xiao Huaihe should have appeared with Su Ruohua at this time.

Her estimation was correct. In the blink of an eye, the two men appeared in the courtyard.

"Ding-dang!" Su Wanti's hands suddenly loosened, and the pair of green jade bracelets fell directly to the ground and broke into several pieces.

Everyone was shocked. Madam Hou looked distressed and said in a lost voice: "My jade bracelet..."

Su Wanti pretended not to hear. Her pair of beautiful almond-shaped eyes were filled with ripples as she stared blankly outside the door.

Everyone followed her gaze and saw Xiao Huaihe walking in holding the hand of a weak woman.

“Hiss——” The sound of sucking in cold air.

Is that the young marquis’ new concubine?

Su Ruohua was being led by Xiao Huaihe, with her head lowered and a shy look on her face.

She acted like this on purpose. After all, she was not in a legitimate position now, and only by acting shy and weak could she make the young marquis feel sorry for her.

She dressed up carefully today, wearing a cloud-like skirt embroidered with lilies, a light red satin shawl, and a double-knotted Ruyi hairpin with white jade and red coral beads and two pearl and gemstone flowers on her head, looking charming and graceful.

"Hmph, you look like a lowly concubine." Su Yue gritted her teeth and said from behind.

Everyone looked here and there, without saying a word, waiting to watch the fun.

"Sister, I'm sorry." Su Ruohua's voice was soft, tears welling up in her eyelashes, just like in her previous life.

"Pa!" With a crisp sound, Su Wanti looked coldly and raised her hand to slap Su Ruohua.

The effect of the powerful pill had worn off, but Su Wanti swung her arm and used all her strength to slap Su Ruohua in the face. The force was quite strong, and Su Ruohua's delicate face immediately became red and swollen.

"What are you doing?" Xiao Huaihe pushed Su Wanti hard and hugged Su Ruhua in his arms, caring for her carefully.

"Wow——" Everyone was shocked to see the young marquis, who was always elegant and refined, getting angry over a concubine.

Su Wanti ignored him, stood firmly, and walked to Su Ruo's painting with a burning gaze.

Every word was clear and cold. "Sister, have you completely forgotten the years of education you received at the Earl's Mansion? Are there no young talents left in the world? Have you and your brother-in-law committed adultery without a matchmaker and disregarded your integrity?"

"Wow——" Everyone was shocked again and their eyes widened.

This new concubine is actually the younger sister of the newly married young lady?

Wow, my own melon is so embarrassing and exciting!

Everyone stared at the three people, afraid of missing any move.

Su Ruohua covered her face, feeling anxious and angry.

As the eldest sister, she was gentle and soft-hearted, and was easy to manipulate. If she apologized, she would be speechless. What happened today? How could he question her? And dare to hit her?

But Xiao Huaihe happened to be right next to her, so she had to endure the beating.

Su Ruohua suppressed her anger and prepared to act according to the plan. She cried sadly, "Sister, I'm sorry, I didn't die..."

Huh——Su Wanti sneered, still want to be like in the previous life?

I'm sorry to disappoint you, but I'm not the original owner!

"Pa!" She swung her arm and slapped him again!

"How can you die? You should go and ask your parents for forgiveness!"

"Ah——" Su Ruohua was caught off guard and her eyes were full of stars. The other side of her face was also swollen.

What should she do? She was anxious. This was not good. She would be slapped for every word she said. If this continued, she would not have to pretend to be weak. She would be beaten into being truly weak.

She felt resentful but couldn't fight back. She closed her eyes and let out a soft cry. She turned around delicately, ready to faint in Xiao Huaihe's arms.

Just when she was about to fall, Su Wanti was quick to grab her arm.

Su Ruohua was caught off guard and fell to the ground with a thud.

She was in so much pain that her whole body froze. She couldn't cry out in pain, and couldn't even get up. She could only lie on the cold stone floor with her teeth gritted, and continued to pretend to be unconscious.

"Ruohua!" Xiao Huaihe rushed forward to hug her, but was pushed away by Su Wanti's elbow.

Su Wanti moved very quickly. She took one step and sat on Su Ruhua's body, slapping her left and right.

While fanning him, he shouted, "Sister, wake up! Wake up!"

"Pa pa pa pa pa pa" the slap was loud.

Su Ruohua was in so much pain that she didn't bother to pretend to be unconscious and pushed with all her strength.

Su Wanti seized the opportunity and used the force of the person under her to fall backwards and fell to the ground.

She immediately said to the system: "Quick! 92, give me the sickness pill!"

The host does not need to actually take the medicines in the system mall. As long as the system is notified, it will automatically deliver the medicines into the host's body without anyone else being able to see.

[The sick pill has been taken by the host]

The drug took effect quickly and Su Wanti immediately felt herself getting weak. The color on her face quickly disappeared, leaving her face pale and slightly blue.

She groaned in pain and vomited a mouthful of blood with a "wow"!

The blood was blindingly red, and foam splattered everywhere.

Su Ruohua covered her cheeks, stood up in a hurry, and said in horror: "It wasn't me! I just pushed lightly, there's no way my elder sister would be hurt..."

But everyone didn't believe it.

Su Wanti raised her eyes faintly, breathing weakly, "I'm sorry to have embarrassed you, mother-in-law. My concubine sister is weak and easily faints. She needs to be slapped hard on the cheeks every time to wake her up. My daughter-in-law just tried to save her..."

A hint of darkness flashed across Su Ruohua's eyes, but she quickly concealed it. She couldn't refute it. She couldn't say in front of all the women in the Marquis' Mansion that she was pretending to be unconscious!

Now, the other party was vomiting blood, and she couldn't slap him back. She was so angry that her chest was blocked and her teeth were almost broken.

"Oh no, the young lady has fainted!" Su Yue suddenly shouted anxiously.

"Hurry up and call the palace doctor!" The marquis's wife was given a headache by this farce. She looked exhausted and shouted weakly.
