Chapter 42 Sacrifice
As soon as she said that, the burly old women standing next to her were about to step forward and surround Shangguan Xi. Today, Shangguan Xueyan was determined to settle the new and old accounts with Shangguan Xi.

Looking at the ferocious old women, Shangguan Xi stood still, and when everyone slowly approached, she moved her body and steps quickly.

As soon as she moved, those old women also moved suddenly, wanting to quickly step forward to grab Shangguan Xi, but when they swarmed up, they only rushed into a cloud of air, and a group of people fell together.

Shangguan Xueyan looked up in disbelief, only to see Shangguan Xi was already standing a foot away from them, looking at them with folded arms.

"Second sister is going to get married soon, so go back and prepare for the wedding. Don't worry, I've already prepared a big gift for second sister." After explaining, Shangguan Xi turned around and left.

Shangguan Xueyan was so angry that she couldn't speak, she could only watch Shangguan Xi leave with red eyes.

How dare she mention the wedding!No matter how stupid Shangguan Xueyan was, she knew that Murong Han said he didn't mind on the surface, but who wouldn't mind his wife's innocence and his own reputation?If she married into the Murong family, she would definitely not be welcomed by the Murong family in the future, and all of this was caused by this bitch, Shangguanxi!
Shangguan Xueyan never imagined that one day she would be brought into such a field by Shangguan Xi, and what she didn't even expect was that Murong Han and Shangguan Shen set a date for their wedding on the second day, and Shangguan Xi really prepared a wedding. Great gift for her.

"Master, how did you know that Murong Han would be so eager to marry Shangguan Xueyan?" In He Fang's courtyard, Ya Ao looked at Shangguan Xi who was enjoying the cool and fanning himself, and asked in confusion.

It's hot summer now, and it's sweltering inside the house, only the occasional breeze outside is refreshing.

Shangguan Xi was sitting by a railing, looking into the distance, and flapping his fan unhurriedly, "Murong Han married Shangguan Xueyan just to enter Shangguan's house openly, what he wants is not only Shangguan's money, but also He is Jin Chanzi of the Shangguan family, but only members of the Shangguan family can enter the ancestral hall openly, and he needs to become a member of the Shangguan family before the ancestor worship ceremony of the Chamber of Commerce and Economics five days later."

A scheming person like Murong Han, after seeing him coming out of the ancestral hall that day, must have been suspicious and went to investigate, but there were a few aunts guarding him, so it was impossible for him to go in, and he realized that Jin Chanzi was already being watched. In the end, Murong Han was forced to have no choice but to quickly find another way to start, but such a way is really not a good way, the power of Murong Villa is not so strong yet, right?
Ya Ao nodded clearly, and then thoughtfully said: "I didn't expect Fourth Yiniang to help, and it also saved us trouble."

"There are no friends for no reason in the world. She is helping us now to save a way out for herself." Shangguan Xi seemed tired from looking ahead, rolled his eyes, and looked down at the corner of his light green clothes.

These days, she seems to be too leisurely and quiet, well, it should be because she hasn't gotten angry these days.This should be a good sign, right?
"Master..." Ya Ao hesitated, "You have been holding onto this jade pendant for many days."

Shangguan Xi was taken aback, and subconsciously looked at the jade pendant held in the other hand. The complex and winding moiré pattern was matching with the pattern of her fingertips. The jade pendant is cold in nature, I just hold it to keep it cool."

"However, the idle king seems to have not come to bother the master for a few days, no wonder the master is bored, why don't I go out with the master?"

Ya Ao said caringly, but Shangguan Xi added a bit of embarrassment, "Speak up! The last thing I want to see right now is him. You should know that I hate people with the surname Pei."

After Shangguan Xi finished speaking, he stood up and walked towards the house, leaving Ya Ao with a confused look on his face.

It was rare for her to see her master get angry, it was rare before, and even rarer now.But now, perhaps only Leisure King Pei Yu could easily arouse his master's mood swings.

On the second day, Shangguan Xueyan and Murong Han's wedding banquet was grandly held in Shangguan Mansion, Shangguan Xi did not go to join in the fun, but how lively the wedding banquet would be was already in her calculations.

Even though the wedding banquet was completed as usual in the end, what happened at the wedding banquet was still undisguised and spread out.It is said that the second lady of Shangguan suddenly became dizzy and vomited continuously when she was paying homage to the high hall. After the famous doctor He Yu in Shangguan's mansion examined it, she affirmed that she was pregnant. He admitted that the unborn child's surname was Murong.It's just that his face is a bit wrong, but everyone still sees it, and there are naturally different speculations.

Of course, Shangguan Xi would not expect such public opinion to have any effect, but some people want to act, so let him act more fully, acting in front of others, but suffering in the rear.

Besides, she was looking forward to Murong Han's performance in the Chamber of Commerce and Economics.

The Shangguan family is well-known as the richest family, and their connections are naturally extensive. Among them, the biennial Chamber of Commerce is also the symbolic chamber of commerce of the Shangguan family. There are also many small merchants attached to the Shangguan family participating, and the lineup is also huge.

The Shangguan Mansion started preparing for the Chamber of Commerce long before Shangguan Xueyan and Murong Han got married. Compared to the Chamber of Commerce, Shangguan Xueyan did not attract much attention.The mansion has been very lively these past few days, with lanterns and festoons everywhere, well-arranged, even in a secluded place like He Fang Yuan, you can still hear the noisy sound.

Although Shangguan Xi is very quiet, he knows all the big and small things in the mansion by heart.In particular, Shangguan Xueqi and the He family are very busy these days. Shangguan Xueqi obviously has an imperial marriage, and can marry into the royal family early to enjoy the power, but now she has not married for a long time. If you will get a foot in the door, you will be willing to leave only after you have a big cup of soup.

Today is the first day of the Chamber of Commerce, and the whole government needs to attend the sacrifice.

Xixiao rummaged through the dresses for a long time in the room again, selected a few and put them in front of Shangguan Xi, "Miss, which dress do you want to wear to go out?"

Shangguan Xi glanced over and saw that several clothes were plain, so he raised his finger at one casually, caught a glimpse of Xi Xiao's expectant eyes, paused and said, "You don't need to worry about these trivial matters."

Xixiao suddenly lost his expression, and took a few steps towards Shangguanxi with his hands pinching his clothes, "Since Miss Hanyan and Sister Yaao have been around, Miss doesn't need Xixiao at all, and Xixiao doesn't know how to do it for her." What did the lady do?"

Seeing Xixiao's puppy-like pitiful expression, Shangguanxi was slightly stunned. She no longer cares about Xixiao these days, just because she has seen that Xixiao really doesn't know everything about her sister's behavior, but even so, let her immediately It is impossible to trust Xixiao, and the value of Xixiao is not above this trivial matter.
