After the rebirth of the Marquis's mistress, she smiled at the scumbag's family

Seeing Lin Wan'er's frustrated expression, Xiao Yunxi smiled and said, "Miss Lin has been serving the old lady in Shou'an Hall in recent days with all her heart and soul. It's naturally not good for you to go back empty-handed."

"Chunxiao, go to the treasury and get a hundred taels of silver." She turned to look at Lin Wan'er, "Consider it the prince's reward for your hard work these days."

Lu Jingting listened to these harsh words and said nothing.

Lin Wan'er lowered her head in embarrassment. With just one word "appreciate", it was clear who was higher and who was lower!

Xiao Yunxi didn't care about what the people in the hall were thinking. She made an excuse that she wanted to go back and see Hongyu, and left with Lu Zhan and the maids.

As for what happened in Shou'an Hall later, she didn't care at all.

Early the next morning, Nanny Li came to Feiyu Pavilion to ask Xiao Yunxi to arrange a carriage to send Lin Wan'er back to the countryside.

Xiao Yunxi said calmly, "There are three carriages in the mansion. The princess went to burn incense today, Cuiwei went back to her parents' home to visit her brother, and there is another one to be kept for emergencies. I'm afraid there is no extra carriage for Miss Lin."

"I see a larger carriage parked in the backyard. I wonder..."

"Oh hey, Madam Li, could Lin Wan'er be your enemy?" Chun Xiao looked at Madam Li with curiosity.

Nanny Li had a wooden face and asked unhappily, "What do you mean, Miss Chunxiao?"

"The carriage in the backyard is not only big, but also more noble. It has the royal emblem on it. Not to mention Lin Wan'er, even the old lady is not qualified to sit in it!"

Chun Xiao rolled her eyes in disdain. "As soon as you put Lin Wan'er in the car, the next thing you know, someone from the Dali Temple took her away and put her in jail!"

Nanny Li was so frightened that she slapped herself on the mouth and admitted her fault, "Princess, please forgive me. I was ignorant."

Xiao Yunxi didn't say much, she just told Chunxiao to bring five taels of silver, "Madame Li, take the silver, find a servant, and go outside to rent a carriage for Miss Lin, don't let the prince's 'good cousin' down."

Nanny Li shuddered when she heard what Xiao Yunxi said, lowering her head and saying docilely, "Yes, I'll go right away."

Hongyu, who had been sitting on a small stool nearby, looked at Li Ma's back thoughtfully as she left, and asked softly, "Isn't the princess afraid of letting the tiger go back to the mountains?"

"Lin Wan'er is determined to replace you. If she goes back this time, there will definitely be trouble. If something happens to her on the way or in the countryside, I'm afraid the prince will blame you."

Xiao Yunxi didn't care. "Living in Shou'an Hall, the prince and she will inevitably have to be more restrained. Flies don't bite seamless eggs. We should at least give them some opportunities to meet in private."

Hongyu looked at Xiao Yunxi in confusion, "Aren't you afraid?"

Xiao Yunxi smiled, "Of course I'm afraid. I'm afraid that if I don't give her a chance, she won't be able to legitimately become Lu Jingting's concubine!"

Hongyu thought about it for a moment and understood what Xiao Yunxi meant. She smiled and said, "The princess is right."

"But you did remind me," Xiao Yunxi instructed Xia He, "Send someone to follow Lin Wan'er's carriage to ensure that she returns safely, and also send someone to monitor her every move in the countryside."

Hongyu smiled maliciously, "That's right, there are always gossips about widows. She is not an easy person to deal with. Maybe she has one or two mistresses in the countryside."

Seeing Xiao Yunxi looking at her seriously, Hongyu pursed her lips and said, "Although I don't have any evidence, based on my understanding of her, she will definitely not be so obedient to the prince."

Xiao Yunxi did not scold Hongyu. Instead, she was thinking that if Lin Wan'er was really restless, would Lu Jingting be so angry that he would kill the adulterer and save himself a lot of trouble.

"Lin Wan'er has her own son to worry about. Now that you have a child, don't think about these annoying people and things. Don't say these things anymore, lest the son vent his anger on you."

"Also, Lin Wan'er must have a trick up her sleeve. She will definitely not go back to her hometown so obediently. You and Cuiwei should be careful and don't fall into her trap."

"I understand."

Xiao Yunxi nodded and let her go back.

After Hongyu left, Xiao Yunxi instructed Xia He, "Go borrow a few secret guards from my second brother and assign two to Zhan'er. Lin Wan'er probably wants to use Lu Guifang's return to cause trouble and force Lu Jingting to give her a legitimate status."

"There's nothing to be afraid of. I'm just afraid that she'll take advantage of the situation and do something bad to ruin my or Zhan'er's reputation. Then the reputation of the Ningguo Mansion will also be affected."

"Yes."

Xia He wanted to say something but stopped.

Xiao Yunxi continued, "I know what you want to say, but now is not the right time. What's more, death is the easiest and most comfortable thing. Living a life worse than death is the most satisfying."

In her previous life, Lin Wan'er brought Lu Ze and Lu Yuan to throw dirty water on her, slandering her for having an affair with someone, which damaged the reputation of the female members of the Xiao family. Seven of them even committed suicide to express their dissatisfaction. Naturally, she must pay back this blood debt a thousand times!

"Tell the maids and servants in the yard to be alert. There are so many people and it doesn't matter if something is missing, but don't add anything that will damage your reputation. Otherwise, even if I am the princess, I will not be able to escape death!"

Xia He's expression sternly said, "Don't worry, Princess. I will arrange it right away. Whoever dares to throw dirty water in our yard will be pushed into the manure pit!"

Xiao Yunxi twitched her lips. Although these words made her feel relieved, they were also disgusting.

At this time, Chun Xiao ran in and said breathlessly, "Princess, Lin Wan'er is making trouble again."

"What's up with her?"

"Just now, Liu'er and Qing'er were taking the maids to move some things, and Nanny Li told Lin Wan'er in front of all the servants that those things were from the old lady's yard and were not given to Miss Lin. Miss Lin should not take things that do not belong to her."

"Lin Wan'er was anxious and embarrassed after hearing this. She closed her eyes and fainted," Chun Xiao took a breath and continued, "Then she ran into Master Ze and Miss Yuan who happened to walk to the door. The two children hugged Lin Wan'er and started crying."

"and after?"

"Madame Li had no choice but to ask Liu'er and Qing'er to carry Lin Wan'er back to Shou'an Hall."

Xiao Yunxi frowned. How could Lu Ze and Lu Yuan arrive there by chance and see Lin Wan'er fainted?

Did Nanny Li say this at the behest of the old lady or was she cooperating with Lin Wan'er?

Chun Xiao continued to ask: "Princess, what should we do now?"

"Don't do anything. Go find Madam Li and get the money for hiring a carriage. Then give it to Liu'er and Qing'er and ask them to thank them for carrying Miss Lin."

Chun Xiao sighed, "Liu'er and Qing'er are also pitiful. They were sent to serve Lin Wan'er. If they really followed her to the countryside, they would have no good life in the future."

Xiao Yunxi said helplessly, "Their indentures are still in the hands of the old lady. Lin Wan'er doesn't dare to do anything to them. The most she can do is verbally humiliate them or beat them up."

"Comfort them later and tell them that as long as people are alive there is hope, but don't say too much, so as not to break the rules."

"Yes, slave, go right away."
