Reborn Concubine, Be Respectful First

However, the heroine Su Xinya is worthy of being the heroine and can still handle it with ease.

After the two families exchanged greetings, Su Chong and Li took them to reunite with the old lady and returned home.

It was almost midnight when Su Xinqing brought Banyue back to her Muxue Courtyard.

After everyone had left, Banyue's smile gradually grew wider, her eyes sparkling. She didn't even give Su Xinqing a chance to speak, and already started looking around.

After a while, he found the abacus and started to work on it while sitting at the table.

Su Xinqing ignored the other person, took off her coat, sat on the bed, picked up a book and started reading.

This is a habit that Su Xinqing has developed in recent years. In an age without electronic products, these books are her only pastime.

At first, she didn't like it very much, but after a few months, she found the fun in it.

Especially some travel notes and picture books, which are similar to the picture books she read when she was a child.

Once again, Banyue looked up and the brilliance in her eyes became even brighter. The multiplication formula was very simple for her.

However, for Ban Yue, who changed her job to become a monk halfway, it is indeed more difficult to use the abacus, which is faster for her.

Su Xinqing listened to the crackling sound of the abacus and soon felt sleepy. When she was half asleep and half awake, she suddenly heard Banyue's scream.

Su Xinqing opened her eyes and looked at the other person speechlessly.

"Girl, girl, we...we, are getting rich!" Banyue did not notice her girl's bad complexion and continued talking to herself: "Girl, you are going to buy half of the capital city. Girl, the profit of our Jinxiufang in ten years is not so high. That is to say, the entire Earl's Mansion may not be worth as much as you, girl. If we had known this, girl, we might as well borrow money from loan sharks and then make a bet. In this way, let alone hundreds of thousands of taels, we can get millions of taels. Ah... Girl, what's wrong? Why did you abandon me?" Banyue, who was dreaming of a bright future, was suddenly hit by her girl's armrest. Her bright eyes suddenly dimmed.

"What good things are you thinking about? The gambling house suddenly won more than one million silver taels. Not to mention the various forces behind the gambling house, even if it got to the ears of the emperor, you and I would be found and skinned alive, not to mention in the Earl's Mansion, even in the underworld, believe it or not. You still want to enjoy more than one million taels of silver while alive? Don't even dare to dream about it." Su Xinqing directly broke Banyue's fantasy.

"Ah... girl, this..." The little face that was flushed with excitement just now has turned pale like paper due to Su Xinqing's fright.

"Tomorrow when you go to the Geda gambling house to exchange your money, have Shopkeeper Chen find a few people from the escort agency, change into the clothes of the prince's servants, and follow you. Got it? You should not show your true face to the people from the escort agency, and Shopkeeper Chen should do the same. Most importantly, on the way back, you must pass by Ping'an Street. There is a prince's courtyard there. Do you know where it is?"

When Banyue heard her girl speak so cautiously, her restless heart calmed down.

As I listened further, the fine beads of sweat on my forehead began to slowly seep out.

"Miss...I...know." Banyue nodded stiffly.

Seeing that Banyue was timid, Su Xinqing said a few words of comfort and encouragement, and sure enough, Banyue recovered after a while.

After all, a big project is needed tomorrow, and I can't go out. The money in the gambling house is not so easy to make.

When I go to bed at night, even in my dreams, I hear Su Xinqing's words of advice.

As a result, when I got up the next morning, although I didn't get a good rest for half a month, I was still in good spirits because my nerves were tense.

According to the previous cooperation between the master and servant, Banyue had already left the Earl's Mansion when Su Xinqing was having breakfast.

Just after breakfast, Su Xinqing was invited by people sent by Li to Yifeiju, which was also the main courtyard where Li’s family lived.

When Su Xinqing arrived, Su Xintao and Su Xinyan were already standing in the yard of the Li family.

When Su Xintao saw that it was Su Xinqing who came over, she was about to say a few words when she saw the maidservant beside the first lady Li came out and invited them in.

Banyue and the others were not even qualified to enter the main courtyard of the Li family.

"My daughter Xinqing pays respects to her stepmother!"

"My daughter Xintao pays respects to her stepmother!"

"My daughter Xinyan pays respects to her stepmother!"

The three of them knelt down together. Not hearing Li's voice, none of them dared to stand up.

After a cup of tea, Li asked coldly, "Mother Xi, which of the three do you think is more suitable?"

Su Xinqing knelt on the ground, feeling a terrifying gaze on her back, constantly scanning the three of them.

After a while, I heard Mother Xi's respectful reply: "Madam, it is more appropriate for me to recognize the Eighth Miss."

"But, Yaer..." Madam Li picked up the tea bowl beside her, looked at the tea in the bowl, and said hesitantly.

Mother Xi understood what her master meant. Seeing Li take a sip of tea, she quickly took the tea bowl and placed it on the table.

She spoke again, "Eldest Miss, we are sisters and want to take care of Third Miss, but the Prince's Mansion is a place with people arranged by Madam Song from Duke Jiang's Mansion. Given Third Miss's personality, I'm afraid she won't be able to help our eldest Miss. Instead, she will have to worry about it. Master, isn't this causing trouble for the eldest Miss? Although Eighth Miss is a little younger, she is smart. Besides, Aunt Wei is respectful in the mansion and often serves the old lady. She is also a grateful person. Madam, just for the sake of the old lady, you have to send Eighth Miss to the Prince's Mansion. When Eighth Miss gives birth to a child, Aunt Wei will have some hope."

Li's face at this moment still showed the worry from yesterday. Even though Xi's mother had said so, she did not nod immediately.

At this moment, Su Xinyan, who was lying on the ground, was already ecstatic.

She never thought that one day she would be able to enter the Prince's Mansion.

Thinking of the prince's tall figure at the palace banquet yesterday, she could no longer hold back her inner excitement.

From time to time, he raised his head and looked at the hem of Li's skirt.

Su Xintao never imagined that her stepmother asked them to come here today to select a suitable concubine for her elder sister.

Listening to the conversation between Xi's mother and Li, Su Xintao wanted to fight for herself, but as soon as she raised her head and met her stepmother's terrifying gaze, she broke out in a cold sweat.

Su Xinqing was also frightened and broke out in a cold sweat, but it was not because the other party did not choose her.

On the contrary, the worried Li listened to Su Xinya's advice and chose herself, otherwise the Eastern Palace would be so strict that she would have to live her whole life in a square courtyard.

Su Xinqing had prayed to all the gods and Buddhas in the sky, fortunately, there was Xi's mother's words.

Otherwise, Su Xinqing would have already thought of a plan to escape.

"Xinyan, are you willing to follow your elder sister to the Prince's Mansion?" Li looked down at the three concubines kneeling below, her eyes full of indifference.
