Chapter 172 Calculation
The Harmony Hall in the backyard of the Duke’s Mansion is filled with flowers, red willows and green congratulatory guests.

Chen Yuan was honored and was honored as a guest of honor. Xia Sichan sat next to her. She looked good, and she was the wife of Yipin Gaoming. Many officials and wives came to talk to her.

Chen Yuan was also happy to exercise her courage, and also deliberately praised Xia Sichan, which was a great compliment, so that she would be able to deal with these aristocratic family members on her own in the future.

Everyone knew that this Xia Si was probably not attractive because of her beauty, she must have been favored by the princess, otherwise how could the princess' temper allow a woman who is not on the stage to come through?

The more the rumors proved to be true, Chen Yuan gave Zhu Shilang's daughter a lesson in public in order to support her daughter-in-law.

Until now, the girl from the Zhu family is still staying in the family temple far away from the capital city and has not been able to return home.

As a result, everyone became more courteous to Xia Sichan.

Xia Sichan knew the princess's mother-in-law's wishes, and met many officials' wives gracefully.

After the luncheon, all the wives surrounded Chen Yuan to chat and drink tea in the flower hall.Then, they went back to their respective homes.

At this time, a maid in the Duke's mansion accidentally knocked over the tray in her hand, and the teapot in the tray fell down and stained Xia Sichan's dress. In desperation, she had to find a place to put her body Change clothes.

Lu Tao and Li Xiaoyu stepped forward to help her to go out, but unexpectedly a little maid stepped forward and said, "Let the servant girl lead the way."

Xia Sichan didn't suspect him, so she said, "Okay."

"Mother, my daughter-in-law will come as soon as she goes." Afterwards, Xia Sichan bid farewell to Chen Yuan.

Chen Yuan raised her eyelids slightly, "Go ahead, just be careful."

Then holding the teacup, she glanced indifferently at the girl who knocked over the teapot, the girl knelt on the ground tremblingly and dared not speak.

Xia Sichan took Lu Tao to a remote courtyard under the guidance of the girl from the Gao family. The small courtyard was small, hidden in a cluster of flowers, and the scenery was elegant.

Xia Sichan came to the corridor, raised her eyes and glanced at the half-garden of thin bamboos outside the corridor. It was lush and green, swaying in the breeze, and a stone path passed through the green bamboos and extended to the lake.

The thin bamboos on both sides are slightly tilted, forming a natural moon cave gate, which encloses the lake and mountains, which is really a clever composition.

Li Xiaoyu helped her in and waited inside, while Lu Tao went to the carriage outside the side door to get the prepared clothes.

After a while, before Lu Tao arrived, the door was suddenly pushed open. She thought it was Lu Tao who had come back. She looked up and saw a woman in a bright red dress striding in. Her girl even deliberately hid the door behind her. In the morning, the master and the servant looked down at her from a height, domineering.

In the few times Xia Sichan went to banquets, she met her once. At that time, she was Gao Yuanyuan, the second young lady of the United Kingdom who was admired by everyone.

"Miss Gao?" She stood up slowly and looked at her suspiciously.

She has never dealt with Miss Gao's family, so could it be another woman who admires Wei Ziqian?
Gao Yuanyuan glanced at Xia Sichan, raised her chin haughtily, and said mockingly, "Xia Sichan, you are so powerful that you can force Brother Wei to marry you by throwing yourself into your arms!"

Xia Sichan was funny, and sure enough, she guessed right.

Squinting her eyes, her expression was condensed: "Miss Gao used this trick to tell me this?"

Gao Yuanyuan looked at Xia Sichan with a full head: "What's the matter, are you not convinced? If you weren't so dirty, the wife of the chief assistant would be me now, Xia Sichan, look in the mirror yourself, how can you compare to me?"

Xia Sichan smiled instead of anger, nodded slowly, with a touch of sarcasm: "Indeed, I am naturally not as capable as you. The majestic lady of the Duke's Mansion is playing such a dirty trick. You are also a high-ranking lady after all, and I am one of them." Got it."

Gao Yuanyuan heard Xia Sichan mocking her, is that okay?

He was so angry that he clenched his fists and was about to rush towards Xia Sichan.

Li Xiaoyu stepped in front of Xia Sichan, stretched out her arm, and threw Gao Yuanyuan aside within minutes, almost eating shit like a dog.

"You, what are you! How dare you hit me?" Gao Yuanyuan, who was caught off guard and had no image of a lady, pointed at Li Xiaoyu and said angrily.

Xia Sichan didn't want to break up with her, so she walked out. Since Gao Yuanyuan was plotting against her, whether Lu Tao could bring the clothes over smoothly or not, she had to leave here as soon as possible.

She has been tricked by Zhu Linlin once, but she cannot be tricked by Gao Yuanyuan again.

Otherwise, I would be sorry for the purpose of writing the book about the inside story of going to a banquet.

She just took a few steps, and the little maid who led the way pretended to fall, and threw herself on Xia Sichan's skirt, pulling her back. Fortunately, Xia Sichan held the door bolt in time, so she didn't fall.

Li Xiaoyu was startled, and while supporting Xia Sichan first, she stretched out her foot and kicked the little maid aside, and said sharply, "Go away, you're going to die!"

Xia Sichan's pupils narrowed slightly, staring at Gao Yuanyuan with lingering eyes, and said, "What exactly do you want?"

Gao Yuanyuan smiled triumphantly, while curling the ends of her hair, her tone was cold, warning: "Don't think that being the first wife's wife is a great thing, and you dare to come to the Duke's Mansion to demonstrate? Let me tell you, there is no way!"

Xia Sichan is really speechless, isn't your Gao family sending invitations to your door?
Thinking of this, Xia Sichan looked at Gao Yuanyuan coldly and said, "Gao Yuanyuan, do you think I don't know anything?"

"I'm curious, the dignified lady of the Duke's Mansion is actually Xiao Xiang's married husband. Could it be that you are planning to marry and become a concubine?"

"You..." Gao Yuanyuan's lips trembled with anger when Xia Sichan said it, "You are an Israeli servant, you are so self-righteous!"

Xia Sichan turned a blind eye to her anger, and continued to say word by word: "Although I have no family background, I am also the daughter-in-law of the Wei family who planned to marry eight times. It is a first-rank imperial order bestowed by the emperor himself!"

Afterwards, Gao Yuanyuan said indignantly, "You are a small family, if Brother Wei hadn't promoted your eldest brother, your eldest brother is still working as a low-level manager in the Ministry of Rites."

"How about my elder brother? It's your turn to talk nonsense? He is the magistrate who has been granted the emperor's approval, and he is a hero for disaster relief!"

The meaning of these words is very clear. Are you questioning the emperor’s inappropriate appointment of people?

At first, she thought that these noble families in this world had excellent family education, but it turns out that the inside is also so dirty.

Being able to raise such an uneducated daughter is really a shame for the British government.

When Gao Yuanyuan was still trying to argue, the door was kicked open.

A noble lady dressed in fine clothes stood in the middle, surrounded by many court officials and women on both sides and behind her, all of them stared at Gao Yuanyuan with cold expressions and even a little contempt and astonishment.

 Xia Sichan: Can there be a new scheming person?It's another job of splashing water.
