After swallowing my anger and taking the blame, I became the lucky little queen

Before Nian Qiaoyue could ask, Mrs. Zhang couldn't help but scold, "Second Miss! You don't even know what good things that vicious woman Lin Yuerong sent to Nian Susu! There were fifteen large boxes that required four people to carry!"

"It's fine that we are short of food, clothing and daily necessities on a daily basis! Now you have brought back so many things from your mother's home, but you are unwilling to give a single penny to the West Wing. How will the people in the Prime Minister's Mansion view you, the Second Miss? Although you are not a legitimate daughter, you are still the bloodline of the Nian family! She..."

She spoke too quickly and accidentally revealed Nian Qiaoyue's scar. After she realized what was happening, she immediately kept silent.

Mrs. Zhang was very resentful. She had never had a good day with Nian Qiaoyue. She always nagged her to find opportunities to show herself and be remembered by others so that she could get ahead. But this dead girl was useless and could not compare to Nian Susu in any way. Otherwise, the master would not have only had eyes for the legitimate daughter!

Nian Qiaoyue's lips suddenly turned pale, her hands couldn't stop shaking, and she didn't even feel the embroidery needle piercing her fingertips. Wasn't what Mrs. Zhang said true to her heart? But what could she do?

She took a deep breath, suppressed her anger, and forced a smile, "Forget it, Mrs. Zhang, they are just some clothes and jewelry, it doesn't matter if you don't want them."

Mrs. Zhang was so disappointed with her friend that she punched the stone table and then sat down.

Nian Qiaoyue wiped the blood from her fingertips with a handkerchief and glanced at her calmly with no emotion in her eyes.

Mrs. Zhang has always been unruly. She always scolds the people in the mansion for looking down on the second young lady, Nian Qiaoyue, but she herself has never respected Nian Qiaoyue, let alone treated her as her master.

"Second Miss, if your mother were still alive, she would definitely not let you live such a miserable life."

Mrs. Zhang sighed with regret, "How despicable that evil woman Lin Yuerong was! She died just after giving birth to you!"

Nian Qiaoyue's ears were callused from hearing these words. Although she didn't say it, she felt in her heart that even if her mother was still alive, things would not be better than they are now.

How well can a maid who climbs into her master's bed while her mistress is pregnant be treated?

Nian Qiaoyue curled her lips in self-mockery and did not respond to Mrs. Zhang's words.

Mrs. Zhang was embarrassed and left after spitting at Lin Yuerong and Nian Susu.

Nian Qiaoyue was the only one left in the room. Her calm face suddenly turned gloomy. She stared at the half-burned red candle on the table, her eyes filled with hatred.

That night.

Nian Susu had a dream that she completed the system task and returned to the modern era.

She ordered ten male models to the nightclub, all of them were 185cm tall, with eight-pack abs, broad shoulders and narrow waists. She hugged one in each arm, and the other eight were jealous of her.

A brother leaned on her shoulder, "Sister, can you stay with me tonight?"

Nian Susu drooled and was about to nod when her other brother came over with red eyes and looked at her pitifully with a pair of watery puppy eyes.

Just as Nian Susu swallowed his saliva and waited for his brother to act coquettishly, his pink lips opened and closed and a cold mechanical sound came out: [System task released, host, please go to the main hall within twenty minutes to take the blame for the arson by Nian Qiaoyue].

"Fuck!" Nian Susu pushed him away in fear as if she had seen a ghost. She opened her eyes and sat up in shock. Her brain was forced to start working before it was clear.

Nian Susu was sure that the mechanical sound just now was not a dream, but that Nian Qiaoyue had gotten into trouble again. Her eardrums were still feeling the vibration.

After hurriedly getting dressed, Nian Susu ran out of the door. Just as she was wondering where Nian Qiaoyue had set the fire, she turned around and saw thick smoke rising above her warehouse. It seemed that the fire had just been put out.

“What!?” Nian Susu’s face was a little distorted. “Nian Qiaoyue burned down my warehouse and wants me to take the blame for her?! Are you kidding me!”

……

What responded to her was the endless silence of the night.

Nian Su Su was speechless. He knew that this broken system was useless.

The main hall of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Nian Qiaoyue and a guard were kneeling at the bottom, while Nian Chengyun and Lin Yuerong were sitting in the front.

The atmosphere in the hall was very depressing.

Nian Chengyun said with a cold face, "Are you sure you saw the second young lady lingering near the warehouse?"

The guards glanced at Nian Qiaoyue and thought that since she was an unpopular concubine, they could just offend her. Otherwise, they, the guards, would be the ones to be punished in the end.

"Yes, sir. When I was on patrol, I definitely saw the second young lady heading towards the warehouse in the east wing. A quarter of an hour later, the warehouse caught fire."

He didn't say who set the fire, but he pointed the finger at Nian Qiaoyue.

Nian Chengyun clenched his fists, angry and disappointed with Nian Qiaoyue, "Qiaoyue, why did you set fire to Su Su's warehouse?"

Lin Yuerong gnashed her teeth and said, "She must be jealous of Lingling!"

Almost all the things she gave to her daughter were stored in the warehouse, and now they were burned by Nian Qiaoyue. How could she not be angry!

It just so happened that Nian Chengyun felt guilty towards Nian Qiaoyue, and she had to establish herself as a fair person in front of her servants, so she ordered people to search and interrogate the guards. Otherwise, she would have dragged Nian Qiaoyue away and beaten with a stick long ago. Why would there be so much trouble?

Nian Qiaoyue sobbed a few times and looked so frail that she might collapse at any time. Her eyes were red and just as she was about to admit it, someone knelt down beside her with a plop.

Nian Susu was calm and said in a clear voice: "Dad, Mom, my sister didn't set the fire."

Nian Qiaoyue frowned, her intuition told her that Nian Susu was going to ruin her plan.

She deliberately burned down Nian Susu's warehouse and let the patrolling guards see her, just to take this opportunity to tell Nian Chengyun about her grievances, and use the guilt in Nian Chengyun's heart to gain some benefits for herself.

Unexpectedly, Nian Susu showed up and disrupted her plans.

She tried hard to control her facial expression so as not to show her dissatisfaction.

Like Nian Qiaoyue, Lin Yuerong was also dissatisfied with Nian Susu's appearance. She stood up excitedly and raised her voice, "Lingling! What are you doing here? You don't have to worry about these things. Go back and have a rest!"

But Nian Susu did not respond with a humble "yes" as usual. Instead, he simply ignored her words and said to Nian Chengyun:

"Dad, I accidentally set the warehouse on fire. If you want to punish me, punish me."

Lin Yuerong's face changed instantly. Nian Susu didn't listen to her! He even helped Nian Qiaoyue to get away with it!

After hearing this, Nian Chengyun pondered for a moment and asked, "Su Su, what's going on?"

Nian Susu remained calm, "My daughter remembered that there was a very beautiful gold hairpin among the jewelry that mother brought back today, so she wanted to go to the storeroom to get it. As a result, she accidentally knocked over the candlestick when she was leaving, and it caught fire."

She fell to the ground, "Please punish me, father."

Lin Yuerong looked at her daughter and felt very unfamiliar.

Nian Chengyun secretly breathed a sigh of relief. If it was really Nian Qiaoyue who set the fire, he would be in trouble.

"Since you were careless, the warehouse is yours, so you don't need to be punished. Just be more careful next time."

Nian Susu raised the corner of his eyebrow, thinking that not being punished would be the best, and kowtowed happily to express his gratitude.

In the end, Nian Chengyun rewarded Nian Qiaoyue with many things as compensation for the injustice he had done to her. Nian Qiaoyue could only pretend to be magnanimous and accept them obediently.

But what she wanted was not gold, silver or jewelry at all! If it weren't for Nian Susu's interference, her plan would have succeeded long ago!

Nian Qiaoyue was so angry that her teeth were itching.
