The mistress was reborn and broke off the engagement, the regent cried and begged to marry into the

24. If you don’t want to compensate me, I will have to ask for it myself.

It is not shameful to bow to power. I took a step forward and then took it back, and could only turn my head away and not look.

Only one young man came forward.

Seeing this, the ladies made way.

The young master half squatted down and asked, "Are you okay?"

Shangguan Sitong looked up with hope, and through her tearful eyes she saw the rich young man with eyes as cold as a snake.

Li Shihang, the sixth son of Yong'an Marquis's Mansion, was famous for his cruelty and ruthlessness, as venomous as a snake or scorpion.

Her heart sank to the bottom, Shangguan Sitong hugged herself and shrank back. She regretted it. She shouldn't have come...

Li Shihang smiled evilly, leaned forward and whispered: "If you want to blame someone, blame your good sister for slapping the face of the Marquis' Mansion."

Shangguan Sitong burst into tears and kept shaking her head.

Li Shihang held out his hand with ill intentions: "Miss Shangguan, are you okay?"

"Take your dirty hands away. I will take care of whether my sister is okay or not." Shangguan Haitong came with a group of servants.

She was dressed in white with bamboo patterns, which made her stand out in the bright red peach blossom forest.

Many people were amazed.

Li Shihang turned his head, his eyes sinister. It was this woman who stepped on the face of the Marquis's Mansion.

Shangguan Sitong exclaimed "Sister" and hurriedly ran behind her family to seek shelter.

Huanshuang hurriedly put a cloak on the second girl and asked the maid to take her aside to tidy up her appearance.

Zhu Yirou and others stopped laughing, stood up and walked over.

Li Sirong looked apologetic: "It was just a joke. Sister Sitong is not easy to tease."

Shangguan Haitong glanced at the scattered jewelry on the ground and said, "If you destroy someone's property, will you pay the price?"

The ladies who had taken action fell silent.

Zhu Yirou smiled and joked: "The sisters were just joking and didn't pay attention to the seriousness of the matter."

"I didn't pay attention to the seriousness of the matter for a moment." Shangguan Haitong walked slowly forward and glanced at the ladies one by one.

Finally, it stopped in front of the maid who delivered the message.

What a familiar face. Someone who cried and begged for mercy in the previous life.

Shangguan Haitong raised his hand and slapped him: "I didn't pay attention to the severity of the situation. You guys don't mind, do you?"

Li Sirong was furious: "When you hit a dog, look at its owner. Shangguan Haitong, don't go too far."

The maid was angry and wanted to fight back, but Huanshuang immediately ordered two servants to come forward and grab the girl tightly.

Shangguan Haitong smiled softly, took out a dagger from his sleeve and drew out the sharp blade: "If it weren't for the master, how could this dog be beaten. If you want to blame someone, blame your good master for not knowing the limits. Since you don't want to compensate, I can only ask for it myself."

After she finished speaking, she grabbed the dagger with her backhand and stabbed the maid's shoulder fiercely. Blood splattered instantly, like a bright red flower falling on a white skirt.

The girls, who had lived a life of luxury, had never seen such a scene before and they covered their mouths in fear.

Shangguan Sitong, who was having her hair combed by a maid, was horrified, her lips turned pale and her body trembled slightly.

Pulling out the dagger, Shangguan Haitong looked at Li Shihang nonchalantly: "How much is she worth? Calculate whether it is enough to compensate for my losses."

What a familiar person! The sixth son of the Li family who loved playing with snakes, eventually died in a snake den.

Li Shihang's eyes were cold: "I am just a maid, I am afraid it is not enough to compensate for this pair of jewelry. Look, young lady, am I enough?"

"Brother, what nonsense are you talking about?" Li Sirong rushed over and took her brother's arm, whispering, "She is just a lunatic."

Huanshuang handed over the handkerchief.

Shangguan Haitong took it and slowly wiped the blood off her hands: "How dare I touch the Sixth Young Master of Yong'an Marquis's Mansion? But the compensation you gave me is not enough, it's a bit difficult. Sister, tell me who broke it, so I can come to your house one by one to ask for it."

The faces of the ladies who had taken action changed. They looked at Zhu Yirou and then at Li Sirong.

Obviously no one expected it to turn out like this.

The fear in their hearts prevailed, and the ladies immediately took off their jewelry to pay compensation.

"Is this enough? If it's not enough, give us a figure. We'll go back and get the silver and send it to your house."

Huanshuang spread out her handkerchief and stepped forward to catch a lot of gold and silver jewelry. The value was hard to estimate, so she looked at her master and stepped aside.

Shangguan Haitong smiled and raised her hand: "Sisters, what are you doing? I was just joking with you."

The servant let go of the maid, and the other maids immediately caught it and tried every means to stop the bleeding.

The dagger was sheathed, Shangguan Haitong reached out to wipe the blood from his lips and tasted it: "Don't play like this next time, it's easy to cause misunderstandings."

The ladies said nothing.

Although the woman in front of him was beautiful, she gave off a strong message of danger.

Like a gorgeous poison, the girls in the boudoir are afraid of it and the young men are shocked.

Shangguan Haitong turned around and said, "The peach blossoms are in full bloom, please continue to enjoy them. My sister is frightened, so I'm sorry I can't accompany you."

The maid helped Shangguan Sitong up, and the servants followed.

The group walked away gradually.

After the people had gone far away, many of the noble ladies breathed a sigh of relief.

I was shocked to realize that I didn't dare to breathe, and didn't dare to have any other thoughts.

Li Shihang's eyes were deep, and murderous intent surged. Once again, the Marquis's Mansion lost face. Shangguan Haitong...

On the carriage back.

Shangguan Sitong wrapped his cloak tightly and looked at his elder sister cautiously: "I..."

"Go back and kneel in the ancestral hall for two hours. Think about where you went wrong before you reply, otherwise you will be punished according to the family rules." Shangguan Haitong didn't want to bother with his stupid sister.

This commotion can certainly scare the young men and women who are ignorant of the world, but there are a group of old foxes behind them.

Using this as an excuse, he was bound to cause trouble. He would target his father in the court, or make a fuss about the mourning period.

Shangguan Sitong didn't dare to speak anymore, and huddled aside like a quail. She now felt that her elder sister was more terrifying than her father.

Return to the mansion.

Shangguan Sitong knelt in the ancestral hall after changing her clothes. She didn't dare to neglect it.

Late courtyard.

After taking a bath, Shangguan Haitong changed into clean new clothes. She sat at the desk, holding a book in her hands, thinking.

Huan Shuang brought tea into the room and said, "Miss, are you thinking of a birthday gift for the prince?"

"I'm thinking about how to train my second sister." Shangguan Haitong put down the book, "Call my third sister over."

"Yes." Huanshuang bowed and went out.

Shangguan Haitong lowered her eyes, and no one knew the complicated emotions in her heart.

How can she avoid the situation in her previous life that she had faced with her own sister whom she both loved and hated...

Shangguan Yunshu got the news and rushed over immediately.

She walked into the room and approached slowly: "Second sister, you are so foolish in this matter. I hope that eldest sister will not be too angry and take care of your health."

Shangguan Haitong took out the account book and put it on the table: "The shops run by our family have more or less some problems. You can take it and work with my second sister to deal with it. I don't care about the process, I only care about the results. When you return the account book, I hope all the shops will be profitable."

Shangguan Yunshu went over to pick up the account book and flipped through it. He was surprised: "My second sister and I have no experience at all. I'm afraid..."

Shangguan Haitong smiled and patted the third sister's shoulder: "You don't have what others have. Don't work in isolation, ask for advice and learn from others."

Ask for advice? Who in the palace has experience?

Shangguan Yunshu nodded: "Sister, I understand."

"Go ahead." The smile on Shangguan Haitong's face faded a little.

The third sister is Aunt Zhou’s weak spot.

Don't let your sister down.

Shangguan Yunshu bowed, picked up the account book and left. It was the first time she was entrusted with an important task, and she was very excited.

As long as I can achieve some results, I can let my aunt see my elder sister's gentleness and kindness.

There will be no more thoughts of fighting. They are a family...
