The fake daughter of a fallen ghost is reborn

Xue Zhiyi's fourth sister, Xue Hanshu, is indeed not a good person.

Xue Hanshu's biological mother was not as favored as Aunt Rong, and she herself was not conspicuous, so her father naturally did not notice her. So from childhood to adulthood, she always followed Xue Zhiyi and acted like a fool.

Xue Zhiyi had always been very close to her, never forgetting to give her a share of anything good. If anyone dared to bully her, Xue Zhiyi would stand up for her.

But if you think about it carefully, Xue Zhiyi actually had a lot of unnecessary grudges in his previous life, which were all caused by her.

It seemed that she was always easily bullied, and Xue Zhiyi always had trouble.

But in the end, the Xue family officials were reinstated, and Xue Hanshu would cry to everyone she met, acting out an act of deep sisterly love, and then she would hold her heart and lament about her poor sister. What would happen to her future if such a good girl ended up in a brothel?

With just that mouth, he managed to spread the news that Xue Zhiyi had fallen into slavery so that everyone in Huajing knew about it.

The funny thing is that even Su Yue saw Xue Hanshu's true face clearly, but only Xue Zhiyi didn't believe it.

It's just... horribly stupid.

Xue Zhiyi couldn't help but sigh inwardly: If she did such a stupid thing again, her life would be in vain.

She didn't blame Su Yue, but she didn't explain anything either. She just smiled and said, "Help me stew two cups of blood swallows tomorrow morning. My fourth sister is coming to see me."

Upon hearing this, Su Yue pouted her lips, quite unhappy: "Miss, this blood swallow is rare, and the eldest lady specially sent someone from her husband's family to deliver it. You can eat a bowl and pour a bowl, but why do you always think of giving it to others?"

"Okay, be obedient." Xue Zhiyi coaxed him in a gentle voice.

Su Yue blinked unwillingly and stamped her feet: "Young lady, why don't you listen to my advice..."

……

The night is getting darker.

Xue Zhiyi's other personal maid Qiuyun helped her tidy up the curtains. She was older than Suyue and more dignified and steady.

"The master punished the second young lady by making her kneel down and reflect on her mistakes, and also deducted half a year's salary. Madam even wanted to send her to a farm in the countryside for confinement, but the master was concerned about the second young master and the second young lady's marriage, so he could only give her a brief explanation."

Xue Zhiyi hugged the soft quilt with only her head exposed. She nodded lightly and did not comment.

She knew that Xue Panrou would not be severely punished, not only because her biological mother, Aunt Rong, was favored, but also because she had a second brother who was from the same mother and was an official in the court and was highly valued.

With the abilities of their family, no matter what mistakes Xue Panrou made, her father would always let her off lightly in the end.

Otherwise, how could Xue Panrou have the confidence to be so arrogant?

Even if someone was killed now, her father would not punish Xue Panrou easily. After all, Xue Panrou's marriage was about to begin, and her father would not cause any trouble in the backyard at this time.

"Miss, I'll be guarding outside. If you need anything, call Qiuyun."

Looking at Qiu Yun Qingjun's face, she nodded and smiled slowly.

Unlike Su Yue, Qiu Yun is slightly older than Xue Zhiyi. She is always so gentle and considerate, and is like an older sister to her.

Because of her misfortune in the previous life, Qiu Yun did not have a good ending.

After the Xue family's property was confiscated in the previous life, Qiuyun was also sold as a slave of the Xue family.

The next time Xue Zhiyi saw Qiuyun was in Chunfeng Tower. At that time, Qiuyun had been assigned to a drunken servant by her new master. The servant beat and scolded her when he was drunk, leaving Qiuyun with a bad skin all over her body.

Even so, Qiuyun still risked being beaten and, after asking around, found Xue Zhiyi in Chunfeng Tower. He also gave her the few hundred dollars he had saved.

Since she has a second chance to live, she must not only live a good life herself, but she must also do her best to protect the two girls, Qiuyun and Suyue!

On the first night back when he was sixteen, Xue Zhiyi fell asleep in a daze.

……

Sure enough, the next morning, her fourth sister Xue Hanshu came in a hurry.

Xue Zhiyi had only choked on a few sips of water and was not seriously injured. He was able to get out of bed today.

Her hair was loose, and was only roughly tied up with a fine jade hairpin. She was wearing a lilac-colored satin long jacket of moderate thickness, and a crepe embroidered with snow-white lily of the valley on the outside. She wore a moon-white cross-legged skirt, which made her look gentle and lazy.

As soon as Xue Hanshu entered the room, she didn't bother to be polite with her and sat down directly at her table.

Xue Hanshu was born with a pretty face. Although she was not the most beautiful, there was a sense of bookishness between her eyebrows and eyes. She also had an extremely childish round face. No matter how you looked at her, you would never feel disgusted by her.

In her previous life, she was fooled around by this man.

Unexpectedly, the next time Xue Zhiyi saw this face, it would be a lifetime ago.

"Third sister."

Xue Hanshu's eyes were red and she was crying: "Is Third Sister feeling better?"

Xue Zhiyi remained calm and did not let his disgust show.

Before she could answer, Qiu Yun came in with a bowl and said, "The bird's nest you ordered is ready, young lady."

"I'm fine, don't cry, Shu'er." Xue Zhiyi smiled brightly and pushed the bird's nest in front of Xue Hanshu: "Try it quickly, this blood bird's nest is not a special gift, it was given to me secretly by my mother. No one else has it, so I specially asked someone to stew it for you."

She scooped a spoonful of soup into her mouth, seemingly unaware of the fleeting jealousy in Xue Hanshu's eyes.

"Third sister is fine... that's good."

Xue Hanshu's fingers clenched the spoon and slowly stirred the blood swallow, which was something she had never seen before but which Xue Zhiyi could easily use to entertain people.

"I just heard everything. Second sister really went too far this time. Not only did she dispose of my servants without authorization, but she almost hurt my sister. I will never forgive her."

Glancing at her sideways, Xue Zhiyi secretly complained: She was filled with righteous indignation at the beginning, but the words she said were still divisive as usual. It was clearly her who took the initiative to provoke Xue Panrou, but in the end she got away with it.

"We don't have to worry about this matter." Xue Zhiyi smiled slightly: "Mother will make the decision."

After all, Fu Ling has been hoping to catch some evidence against Rong's family all day long, so how could he let it go easily this time?

"Oh, right." As if she remembered something, her dark eyes flickered. As if chatting, Xue Zhiyi said, "It seems that the family of Zhao, the Marquis of Yongping, came to discuss marriage with my second sister today."

Now that she thought about it, Xue Hanshu in her previous life had instigated her and Xue Panrou to quarrel, and she was probably intending to make a big deal out of it.

This would not only ruin Xue Panrou's marriage, but also give Xue Zhiyi a reputation of being arrogant and domineering in front of outsiders.

"Marquis Yongping's Mansion..." Xue Hanshu's eyes froze.

Looking at her expression, Xue Zhiyi's smile deepened: She probably doesn't know what a glorious marriage her father has found for Xue Panrou?

"Although Zhao Shen, the third son of the Zhao family of Yongping Marquis, has no chance of inheriting the title, I heard that he is handsome and talented in literature. He has already been appointed to the Imperial Academy in his early twenties, so his future is limitless."

Ignoring Xue Hanshu's increasingly stiff expression, Xue Zhiyi snorted softly, "In order to prevent my second sister from causing trouble again, Daddy has confined her to the courtyard. I'm sure she's furious right now."

Xue Hanshu frowned, and the corners of her mouth sank: "But...how could the Zhao family marry such a domineering woman?"

Xue Zhiyi spread his hands and said, "They must have kept it a secret from the Zhao family, otherwise why wouldn't they let her see anyone?"

After saying this, she shook her head with regret: "They say that a talented man is paired with a beautiful woman, but in the end he is paired with my second sister. I'm afraid that Zhao Sanlang's life will be in turmoil from now on."

Xue Hanshu gave a stiff laugh and agreed, "Who said it wasn't?"

Unexpectedly, Xue Zhiyi suddenly stopped talking and began to look at Xue Hanshu carefully.

Xue Hanshu felt embarrassed when she looked at her: "Third sister?"

But Xue Zhiyi smiled and said, "I think Shu'er has such a good personality and looks, and is quite knowledgeable about poetry and literature, so it's better for you to marry her."

"Third sister..." Xue Hanshu immediately looked terrified: "How can you say such nonsense?"
