Quick Wear: The Enchanting Concubine, Rules of Survival and Plunder

Chapter 430: Concubine of Jingnan Marquis's Mansion 1

"Are you very capable now?" Jiang Chunxi looked at Zhixuan unhappily, "I, as the master, didn't say anything, but you, a maid, taught me a lesson."

The reason why the original owner was plotted against in his previous life was all because of a traitor who appeared among the people around him, and that person was Zhixuan.

Not only did Zhixuan let the man into the original owner's room, she also came forward to prove that the original owner had been having an affair with the servant.

"Miss, what's wrong with you?" Zhixuan pouted and said aggrievedly, "You have never scolded me like this before, why..."

"Ha!" Jiang Chunxi laughed out loud, "Why, you are a precious person, aren't you? As your master, I can't scold you."

"Go outside and kneel down. Don't get up without my permission."

The original owner was too gentle and kind to his servants, which is why he spoiled Zhixuan to the point where she didn't behave like a servant anymore and also fostered Zhixuan's ambition.

In fact, the original owner's previous life could understand why Zhixuan betrayed her. It was because Zhixuan had an ambition that she shouldn't have and wanted to be a concubine of Marquis Jingnan.

When the original owner saw Zhixuan's ambition, he was not angry, but instead did some ideological work on Zhixuan.

The original owner really treated her two older maids as her younger sisters. She hoped that they could marry and become wives. She also planned to prepare generous dowries for them when they got married. It would be fine for her to become someone's concubine, but she really didn't want the maids who had grown up with her to become concubines.

However, the original owner's kindness did not move Zhixuan. Instead, it made Zhixuan hate her, which led to Zhixuan's betrayal of the original owner.

"Hmph! Kneel down then." Zhixuan snorted coldly and walked out angrily.

"Miss, Zhixuan is just like that. You must not be angry with her." Zhiwei was angry at Zhixuan for not knowing what was good for her, but she still pleaded with Zhixuan out of concern.

After all, the two grew up together, so their feelings are naturally deep. But it is also because of this that Zhiwei and Zhixuan are ungrateful.

The young lady is nice to them, but that doesn't mean they, as servants, can lose their temper with their master. Zhixuan has really been spoiled by the young lady. If her temper is not corrected, I'm afraid she will cause big trouble in the future and harm the young lady.

"Just call me Auntie from now on!" Jiang Chunxi said, "I am already a concubine of the Marquis of Jingnan. It is not appropriate to continue calling me Miss. If someone hears this, they might use it as a weapon to frame me for some crime."

"As for Zhixuan," Jiang Chunxi sneered, "Haha! It seems that I, as the master, am too lenient. That's why a little maid like her has forgotten her identity."

As she spoke, Jiang Chunxi looked at Zhiwei and said, "Zhiwei, please don't let me down. After all, compared to Zhixuan, I value you more and trust you more."

Zhiwei was a loyal person. When the original owner was plotted against in her previous life, Zhiwei insisted that her master was wronged even if she was beaten to death.

But even so, Jiang Chunxi still gave Zhiwei a loyalty talisman. As for Zhixuan, forget it. Doesn't she want to become the concubine of Marquis Jingnan? In this case, as the master, she must fulfill her wish.

Zhiwei's expression suddenly changed after using the loyalty talisman. Logically, Zhiwei should be terrified that her master was possessed by a monster, but people who use the loyalty talisman are only loyal to their masters. Although they have their own thoughts, their inner loyalty to their masters makes her dare not suspect anything about her master.

After Jiang Chunxi finished dressing up, she went to the main courtyard to pay her respects. Naturally, she brought Zhiwei with her, while Zhixuan of course continued to kneel.

When Zhixuan saw her master taking Zhiwei away, her eyes were filled with hatred.

This is how it is for this kind of ungrateful person! When you treat her well, she won't be grateful, but once you treat her a little bit badly, she will hate you to death.

"Madam, I heard that the Marquis called for water four times in Aunt Jiang's room last night." Zi Shu, the head maid in the main courtyard, said worriedly while combing her master's hair. "The Marquis has never been interested in women. He suddenly dotes on a woman so much. I am really worried about you."

Ding Xinhui glanced at Zi Shu through the bronze mirror with displeasure before saying calmly, "She is just a concubine who is not presentable. Why should you worry about her for me?"

"But Aunt Jiang's dowry is really enviable!" Ding Xinhui picked up the eyebrow pencil and began to draw her eyebrows. "She is worthy of being the richest man in Jiangnan. Her daughter can bring a huge dowry when she marries as a concubine. It's even better than my second wife who was married in a sedan chair."

Although Ding Xinhui is the second legitimate daughter in the family, she has never been favored at home since she was a child. In her parents' eyes, only her elder sister is their hoped-for and precious daughter, while she, the second legitimate daughter, is like a person picked up from the street.

Since she was a child, Ding Xinhui has been jealous of her eldest sister and hated her even more. So on her father's birthday, when her eldest sister returned to her parents' home with a belly that was more than eight months pregnant, Ding Xinhui conspired to make her eldest sister give birth prematurely, in order to kill two people with one body.

Unexpectedly, the elder sister gave birth to twins safely, but she died of heavy bleeding. Otherwise, Ding Xinhui would probably have been so angry that she vomited blood.

After her elder sister died, Ding Xinhui watched her sister give birth to twins, a boy and a girl, and she immediately felt that her chance had come.

Ding Xinhui knew very well that even if she got married, she would not be able to marry into a family as prominent as Marquis Jingnan like her elder sister. The most important thing was that Marquis Jingnan was deeply trusted by the emperor and was a trusted minister around the emperor.

So she began to persuade her parents to agree to let her marry into the Jingnan Marquis's Mansion and raise a pair of children for her elder sister.

Originally, this should have made Ding Xinhui happy, but the dowry her parents gave her was only half of that of her elder sister. They kept saying that her dowry could not exceed that of her elder sister, for fear that giving her more dowry would be unfair to their dead precious daughter.

How could Ding Xinhui not hate them? However, she has always been good at acting. No matter how much she hates her parents, she can still act like a filial son. After living with this mask on for so long, even she sometimes almost thinks that she is a good person.

"Merchant families have no rules. They think it's an honor to let their daughter become a concubine. They give their daughter so much dowry. This is completely trampling on the face of the mistress of the house," Zi Shu said indignantly. "Madam, when Aunt Jiang comes to pay her respects later, you must teach her a lesson. Otherwise, Aunt Jiang will think that you, the mistress of the house, have no temper and will ignore you in the future because of the favor of the Marquis."

"I have always been a tolerant and generous person in the Marquis' Mansion. How could I possibly do something to torture a concubine?" Ding Xinhui put down the eyebrow pencil in her hand and said, "What's more, Aunt Jiang is my god of wealth. I should be grateful to her."
