Reborn as the first poisonous concubine

Chapter 106
I don't know how long it took before Lin Xueyao heard the sound of the courtyard door being opened, she stood up almost immediately, but when she came back, only Zhui'er was there, but Shen Rui was not there.

"Where is Master? Why didn't he come?" Lin Xueyao asked anxiously, for the first time she lost her usual calm demeanor in front of a servant.

Zhui'er bit her lower lip, hesitated for a while, and then said falteringly: "Master Shang Shu, he...he..."

"What's wrong with him?" Lin Xueyao saw the appearance of Zhui'er who dared not speak, she already had a vague guess in her heart, but she couldn't believe this fact, she opened her eyes and shouted sharply: "Say it!"

Zhui'er was startled by Lin Xueyao's sudden shout, finally gritted her teeth, and recounted to the second wife what Lord Shangshu said before: "Master Shangshu couldn't explain it, and said that since Madam, if you persuade him to take a concubine so virtuously, you probably don’t need him to accompany you at night, Madam, just stay in the yard by yourself, and he won’t come here for a while..."

After Zhui'er struggled to finish these words, she heard a crisp sound, looked down, and saw a piece of jade held by the second lady fell to the ground and broke in two on the ground.

"Ma'am, this is the jade that Master Shangshu specially brought back from Jiangnan to give you. How could you smash it?" He wanted to bend down to pick it up, but was startled by Lin Xueyao's sneer.

"He won't come to my yard anymore. What's the point of keeping this piece of jade?" Lin Xueyao's eyes were blank and her face was pale, as if deeply hurt by Shen Rui's words relayed by Zhui'er. I don't know whether to cry or laugh.

"I just suggested him to take a concubine out of good intentions, but he didn't come to my yard to spend the night. He has never been so cruel to me..."

Lin Xueyao covered her face with her hands, slumped back to her limp seat, and kept muttering, those expectations before were all replaced by grief and indignation.

The originally meticulously painted makeup looks even more bleak under the swaying candlelight.And the plates of pastries and a jug of wine on the table looked very ironic in this silent night!
Lin Xueyao kept shaking her head, and from time to time, her forbearance attitude appeared in her mind, as well as Lu Xiyun and Liu Yiyi's proud faces in front of her after being favored...

Finally, Lin Xueyao couldn't hold back the raging anger in her heart anymore, she swept the cakes and jug on the table to the ground with her sleeves, venting her grief and anger to her heart's content.

Zhui'er was startled by her sudden action, and stood stiffly in place for a while before reacting.

She has been serving the Second Madam for so long, and this is the first time she has seen such an abnormally behaved Second Madam.

She carefully jumped over the wine and vegetables that were swept to the ground, bent down to pick up the broken jade and put it aside, then walked behind Lin Xueyao, helping her pinch her shoulders to ease her tense emotions, while gently He persuaded: "Second Madam, don't be too sad... Mr. Shang Shu may be angry, that's why he said that! You are the first one he keeps by his side, so he won't be so heartless!"

Lin Xueyao shook her head, with a self-deprecating wry smile on her lips, and said word by word: "Chui'er, you don't understand, although Master Shang Shu is very kind to every concubine in the mansion, and because of this, if he really makes up his mind If you decide to snub someone, you will definitely do it! Have you forgotten how he snubbed Wei Zijin back then?"
