"You are the mad dog! Xu Wanying, you are talking nonsense. I am going to tear your mouth apart!" Wei Jiao was already on the verge of collapse. After hearing what Xu Wanying said, she was so angry that she gasped for breath.

Her head suddenly got hot and she was about to rush over.

Several girls around her hurriedly stopped her and advised, "Jiaojiao, today is your birthday, you can't act impulsively. This Third Madam Jiang is talking nonsense. The clothes you are wearing are very valuable, and she can't discredit them with just a few words."

"That's right. When I came here today, I praised the beautiful hairpin on your head. Have you forgotten?"

Several little girls coaxed and persuaded Wei Jiao, and began to praise her in various ways, as if they wanted to praise her to the sky.

Wei Jiao's eyes were red. Being coaxed by so many people made her feel a little relieved. However, every time her eyes swept over the Dongzhu on Xu Wanying's shoes, her heart ached.

The pearls that people step on are as big as a baby's fist and are not good things at all.

The one she wore on her head was only the size of an apricot kernel, but she wore it like a treasure and showed it off several times.

"You are right, some people are good at confusing right and wrong and telling lies with their eyes open!" She said angrily as she was helped to sit on a stone bench.

"Yes, yes, what my cousin said is absolutely right. You are obviously dressed very ordinary, but these people praise you to the sky. It is obvious that they have ulterior motives." Xu Wanying immediately took over the conversation, her tone was quite cheerful.

Wei Jiao's veins popped out when she heard this, and she immediately jumped up in anger: "Who talked to you? Xu Wanying, are you mentally ill? I didn't say that to you, why are you being so sentimental!"

"If my cousin won't tell me, then I'll tell my sister-in-law. Sister-in-law, do you know what "overpraising to death" means?"

Xu Wanying didn't care about her rage, but turned around and continued talking.

Li Chunlan blinked. She had heard of flattery before, but she knew that her third brother's wife would definitely show off her power, so she pretended not to know in order to cooperate.

"I've only heard of being beaten to death, but never heard of being praised to death."

"In the past, there were often stepmothers who spoiled the children left by the previous wife and raised them up to be ignorant but self-righteous. In the end, the child fell from the sky and became a laughing stock in Wangjing!"

Li Chunlan pretended to be surprised: "Oh, this method is really vicious. Did Third Sister-in-law see something of flattery and killing just now?"

Xu Wanying looked at her approvingly. Li Chunlan did not let her down at the critical moment and cooperated very well.

"Of course, look at what the girls around my cousin are wearing. The purple-dressed girl's cape is made of white fox fur, right? It's very rare to find a complete piece of white fox fur nowadays, and it's worth a fortune. The yellow-dressed girl's dress is embroidered on both sides, which is more precious than Shu embroidery. You can't buy it even if you spend money."

"Look at the girl in blue again, what's her name?" Xu Wanying tilted her head, looking very confused, she really couldn't remember.

"Ninglu, the girl from the Yu family." Li Chunlan reminded her immediately.

"Yes, yes. This Miss Yu is even more amazing. Her outfit is extremely exquisite. Not only her clothes, but also her jewelry is a complete set. The jade hairpin and bracelet on her head are a pair. The golden phoenix hairpin and the forbidden bracelet on her waist are also made by the same master. She is dressed very solemnly." Xu Wanying nodded immediately.

"Look at all these girls gathered together——"

She paused here and looked at the people opposite her. The girls who originally prided themselves on being noble and elegant suddenly felt nervous. Even Yu Ninglu, who was the calmest, felt uncomfortable.

"The rest of them looked more like girls celebrating their birthdays than my cousin did. They were all dressed better than her, but they kept praising her. I was the only one who told the truth, but my cousin didn't like it."

Li Chunlan seemed to suddenly realize something. She slapped her thigh and said excitedly, "Ah, this is what you call flattery!"

"Shh, shh, shh, sister-in-law, don't say it so loudly. My cousin will be unhappy if she hears it. She doesn't believe that we are doing this for her own good, she only believes what others say. It's enough for only the two of us to know this, don't tell anyone else!" Xu Wanying looked panicked and immediately raised her hand to make a gesture to keep quiet.

That being said, the two sisters-in-law spoke loudly, and the main point was conveyed without missing a word.

Wei Jiao's face turned pale when she heard this. She immediately stood up, looked down at her clothes, then turned around to look at the people around her. She instantly felt that what Xu Wanying said made sense.

The girls around me are all dressed very elegantly. If you go out and ask someone whose birthday it is, I'm afraid you won't be able to guess.

After all, each of them is very glamorous and beautiful, even to the point of being eye-catching.

"It's okay. We are just chatting among ourselves, not talking to others. They can't be so self-indulgent. Is she being flattered to death?" Li Chunlan waved her hands fearlessly, not caring at all. She even raised her voice provocatively, as if afraid that others couldn't hear her.

"I think so. Poor silly girl. She thought everyone was sincere for her and were all telling lies and praising her. Who knows, they would secretly gather together and laugh at her in private. She had a birthday party, but the limelight was stolen by other girls, and she was still so beautiful!"

Xu Wanying sighed deeply and said with regret.

"Ladies, you should be responsible for what you say. Why are you talking nonsense here without any evidence? You are trying to sow discord. You deserve to be killed!"

Yu Ninglu has always been cold and aloof, but she couldn't help it at this moment. She immediately raised her voice and scolded with anger.

Someone noticed that the atmosphere was not right and immediately asked the maid to go find Xiao Cen.

After all, Wei Jiao was no match for the two sisters-in-law on the opposite side. Even with their help, she was still at a disadvantage and they even became suspicious of each other.

"Hey, Miss Yu, I was talking to my sister-in-law, not you. Why are you making such a fuss? Aren't you just being sentimental?" Xu Wanying responded to Wei Jiao's previous words. It was obvious that she was the type who would never let go of a grudge.

Yu Ninglu was so angry that she laughed: "I don't care if you talk to the prince's wife, but you are talking about me, why can't I join in the conversation?"

"Then wasn't what I said true? Isn't that a jade hairpin you are wearing on your head? It is a set with the bracelet, and the color is excellent. It should be made from the same stone. Tell me what I said is wrong." Xu Wanying immediately refuted.

Her face was full of seriousness and innocence, which made the group of girls opposite her hate her so much.

How can someone's expression make people so upset that they want to go up to him and teach him a lesson just by looking at his expression?

If they take a look at the modern Internet, they will recognize that this is a necessary skill for a green tea girl. She looks innocent and pitiful at first glance, but in fact she is provocative.

Yu Ninglu was immediately choked by her. She was silent for a few seconds before she said, "Even if these two are indeed a set, it doesn't prove that I dress better than Jiaojiao."

"Okay, whatever Miss Yu says is what it is. You're wearing a complete set of clothes, and they're more expensive than my cousin's, but not as good as hers. Is that okay?" Xu Wanying quickly nodded in agreement. She didn't argue with her at all, but instead went along with what she said.

"Cousin, don't cry anymore. Miss Yu has already said it. Although she dresses better than you, she is not as pretty as you overall. She is impressed by your beauty and feels inferior to you!" She turned her head again and began to coax Wei Jiao.
