After the noble lady was reborn, the whole mansion begged her for forgiveness

Outside the window, the morning light brushes across the sky like a veil, gently penetrating the gaps between the mist and the window frames, casting mottled light and shadows, interweaving with the exquisitely crafted furnishings in the room to form a quiet and solemn picture.

The antique wooden furniture exudes a faint warm luster, which echoes the morning light coming in through the window. The air is filled with a faint sandalwood scent, which makes people feel peaceful.

Just when this tranquility was about to be broken, Jin Lan hurried in from the door. Her steps were hurried and heavy, and her brows were locked with unresolved worry, as if she was carrying a heavy burden.

Her eyes were sharp and she glanced around from time to time. It was obvious that she had something extremely important in her mind.

"Madam, I have spared no effort to investigate the matter of the tailor shop thoroughly."

Her voice was low and powerful, and every word seemed to be uttered after careful consideration, causing Nanny Wu and Jinxiu, who were stroking the embroidery nearby, to involuntarily stop their work and turn around, their eyes full of concern and expectation.

Jin Lan took a deep breath, calmed herself down, and continued, "Of the nine sets of gorgeous dresses originally ordered, six should have been delivered on time, but they never arrived until yesterday. I'm afraid there must be an unknown secret behind this." Her tone revealed a bit of helplessness and unwillingness, as if she was also heartbroken by this sudden change.

Upon hearing this, Jinxiu frowned and a hint of indignation flashed in her eyes. She stood up suddenly and said angrily, "Mrs. Zhang did this on purpose. She only presented three new sets of clothes in an attempt to confuse people. She deserves death!" There was unquestionable firmness in her voice, and it was obvious that she was disgusted with the owner of the tailor shop.

Qin Suling sat by the window, the morning light outlining her soft silhouette. She gently raised her hand, signaling Jinxiu to stay calm. Her eyes were slightly focused, as if she could see into the deepest secrets of people's hearts. She gently asked Jinlan, "Have you heard any rumors about the six sets of clothes that arrived earlier?"

Jin Lan shook her head, unable to hide the disappointment on her face: "I was afraid of disturbing the sewing room, so I asked the old lady privately, but I learned that only one set of clothes was delivered to her this month. As for the other five sets, their whereabouts are still unknown, as if they had evaporated from the face of the earth."

Qin Suling sighed softly, her voice showing both helplessness towards the impermanence of the world and a sense of indifference. "Forget it, perhaps this is fate, and it cannot be forced. Let them go with the wind." Her words were soft, but they revealed an unquestionable power that made people involuntarily convinced.

However, Jin Lan was still uneasy in her heart. She hesitated to speak, with a complicated expression. Just as she was about to speak, she suddenly remembered another more urgent matter. Her face suddenly changed, and she said anxiously: "Madam, there are rumors everywhere outside the mansion, and they all say..." When she said this, her heart tightened, and she lowered her eyes, not daring to look directly into Qin Suling's eyes that seemed to be able to see through people's hearts.

Qin Suling smiled slightly, and that smile showed both her insight into the fickleness of the world and her calmness in the face of the upcoming challenges. "They say that although I look weak, I dared to reduce his share when I first took over the household affairs, which touched the interests of some people and caused rumors to spread. Is that right or not?" Her voice was calm and powerful, as if she had already expected such a storm.

Upon hearing this, Jinxiu was so shocked that she could not express it in words. She widened her eyes and shouted in disbelief, "Madam, this rumor is absolutely ridiculous! How could it spread so quickly in the mansion?" Her heart was burning with anger and full of doubts, knowing that there must be someone behind this.

Nanny Wu frowned, looking even more worried. She knew that rumors were more ferocious than tigers. If they were not quelled in time, it might endanger Qin Suling's position in the mansion, and might even cause the general to misunderstand Qin Suling, thus planting an irreparable rift between them.

"Have the staff been arranged properly?" she asked Qin Suling anxiously, her eyes full of concern and anxiety.

Qin Suling nodded slightly, with a determined light in her eyes. "Everything has been arranged. We will go to the meeting room immediately to make the truth known to the world." Her words revealed an unquestionable determination, as if she was ready to face all challenges.

After she finished speaking, she stood up, with an upright posture and firm steps. Under her leadership, a group of people marched towards the meeting hall, vowing to uncover the conspiracy hidden in the dark and clear their name.
