I'm a humble concubine. My acting skills are off the charts. You can check my performance.

Zhao Fangyu was ill, and almost all the masters in the mansion came to visit him once.

People arrived and gifts were presented. Because of this illness, the small treasury of Caiyue Hospital, which was already scarce, was quickly filled up.

In the corridor, a little maid in gray-green clothes quickly walked into Aunt Qian's room. Seeing that there was no one around, she carefully took out a wooden sign from her sleeve.

The wooden sign is very old and has an old smell, with some mud on the edges.

"Aunt, the concierge came today to report that someone had come to our house."

Aunt Qian was embroidering new shoes for Zhao Fangyu. She glanced at the wooden sign and her pretty eyebrows slightly frowned.

"Take two taels of silver and run faster. Don't let your brother wait anxiously."

The little maid pouted her lips in displeasure, but still obediently took out two taels of silver from the money box.

"My aunt only gets three taels of silver a month, and with the five taels from you, it's only eight taels of silver."

"This autumn wind blows several times a month, and no matter how high the monthly salary is, it can't stand it."

Aunt Qian said calmly, "He is my own brother. I can't let him starve to death. Besides, my nephew is still young and needs to go to school. My home is not like the mansion, so I have to help him out a little..."

Zhao Fangyu knew the rest without even listening, it was just the same old stuff.

After a few days of rest, although Zhao Fangyu did not leave the house, he had become familiar with Caiyueyuan.

"You won't stop me, girl? That's your monthly allowance that's going away!"

Xiangyao stood in front of the bed, staring at Luxiao who was going away, with anxiety in her eyes.

After a few days of getting to know each other, Zhao Fangyu already knew that his aunt was not as honest as she appeared.

Aunt Qian's honesty and loyalty, as well as her weakness and vulnerability, are what she deliberately displays in order to let others see.

The real Aunt Qian...is not as simple as she appears.

Because they were together day and night and Aunt Qian was defenseless in front of him, Zhao Fangyu could sense that she hated her natal family.

The backgrounds of most concubines are always those of being bought or employed as servants. Qian Xiao's family is from outside, so she was most likely bought and may not have volunteered to be a concubine.

The original owner was young and didn't understand many things, but Zhao Fangyu, who traveled through time, knew clearly that Qian Xiaoniang was not as innocent as she appeared to be.

Parents who love their children will plan for them in the long run. Aunt Qian's move was risky, and all she sought was to make her half-legitimate daughter and not have the honor of being a concubine in the future.

Aunt Qian once said to her, don't be like her in the future. As a concubine, even her children will be looked down upon.

After trying hard to link the injury to the First Lady, the First Lady was in the wrong and would take Zhao Fangyu into the main courtyard for discipline for the sake of her own children. Once Zhao Fangyu was involved with the First Lady, he would most likely end up like Qian Xiaoniang in his life.

"Take it if you want. I'm young and I can't use it."

Zhao Fangyu followed suit. Although the original owner did not say it, she was extremely disgusted with her uncle's family who only knew how to suck blood. Aunt Qian always tried to reconcile them, but the look in her eyes showed displeasure.

This blood-sucking family is always part of Aunt Qian's plan.

Things in the deep courtyard must be thought carefully before you can figure out what's wrong. Zhao Fangyu had only been there for a few days and he had already experienced several games of chess.

Now that he has recovered from his illness and can walk, Zhao Fangyu has a deeper understanding of this wealthy mansion. He also understands why Aunt Qian took such a risky move to give the original owner a chance to go to Qingping Courtyard.

"It's a nice day today, why don't you go for a walk in the garden? There are many beautiful flowers blooming this year."

Xiangyao led Zhao Fangyu and walked slowly forward.

Zhao Fangyu, who came from another world, also slowly saw the wealth and splendor clearly.

It is not uncommon to see a hundred flowers blooming in March, but what is surprising is that the garden in the minister's mansion is too big.

There are so many varieties of flowers that it is hard to find a single one that does not bloom as desired.

This is not only a symbol of power, but also a symbol of money.

There are so many varieties of flowers, and for them to bloom so beautifully there must be someone to take care of them and cultivate them with dedication. It is obviously not something that can be taken care of by just one or two people in a garden.

What's more, Zhao Fangyu also saw an extremely precious two-color peach blossom among them, the Golden Jade Peach!

Zhao Fangyu stood under the peach tree and looked at it for a long time before he was sure that this was the gold-sprinkled jade peach.

Such precious flowers were not treated preferentially in the Minister's Mansion and were treated no differently than ordinary peach trees.

"Can you come out and walk?"

A female voice came from behind him. Zhao Fangyu turned around and saw Zhao Fangjin, who was wearing a white brocade robe with pink on top.

Zhao Fangjin was about to turn ten years old. Unlike Zhao Fangyu's bun, her hair was combed into double hanging buns in an adult style at home, and she wore hairpins, rings and jade pendants, looking very gorgeous.

Zhao Fangyu timidly called "Big Sister", but then thinking of the original owner's cowardice, she cautiously forced out a smile.

Zhao Fangjin looked at Zhao Fangyu, who was laughing so hard that she was about to cry. He originally thought that maybe Zhao Fangyu had framed her cousin Meng Yanzhen, but now he thought that this cowardly woman could not do such a big thing.

But Zhao Fangjin still disliked Zhao Fangyu, and his original indifference even turned into a slight dislike.

"If you have nothing to do, go back to your room and rest. There are many guests at the banquet recently, so don't offend the guests again."

These words sounded like a warning. Zhao Fangyu immediately noticed Zhao Fangjin's attitude and cautiously took two steps back to let Zhao Fangjin go first.

People are close or distant, and because of her serious illness, the young lady from the Duke's Mansion will at least be scolded.

This legitimate elder sister and the legitimate daughter of the Duke's Mansion are real cousins and they often visit each other. She is definitely closer to Meng Yanzhen than to her illegitimate sister.

It's not surprising that she was angry because of Meng Yanzhen.

After Zhao Fangjin walked away with a cold snort, Zhao Fangyu and Xiangyao looked at each other and let out a breath at the same time.

"This young lady's aura is really intimidating."

Xiangyao patted her chest and looked in the direction where Zhao Fangjin left, her eyes full of envy.

Zhao Fangjin was a legitimate daughter, and the maids around her all wore golden cloves on their ears.

Zhao Fangyu recovered and glanced at Zhao Fangjin's leaving back.

"Next time we meet Big Sister, let's talk less."

When you first arrive, the most taboo thing is to chatter and disturb others.

The eldest lady loves her children and has never treated her concubine's daughter harshly in the past. But if she really conflicts with the legitimate daughter, it is obvious that she will have no choice but to be sent back to Caiyueyuan.

The eldest girl has already revealed her dislike for her, and if she wants to gain a foothold in Qingping Courtyard, she will have to work hard.

Zhao Fangyu picked some flowers from the garden, selecting those that were not too expensive but looked nice, and put them together into a bouquet. Without using any perfume, she carried the flowers to Qingping Courtyard.

The eldest lady was taking a nap at noon, so Zhao Fangyu handed the flowers to Mother Cui.

"This flower is beautiful. Mother is tired from doing the accounting. She wants to rest her eyes by looking at it."

"Thank you for the herbs mother sent last time."

Zhao Fangyu is small, with snow-white skin and black bright eyes, as cute as a snow-jade ball.

Every time Mother Cui saw Zhao Fangyu, she couldn't help but sigh, Zhao Fangyu is really the president.

It's not surprising that she looks like Aunt Qian, but she actually looks 50% like the Madam!

The lady went back to her hometown to recuperate last year, otherwise she would have been so happy to see Zhao Fangyu now!

"I just hope that this fourth girl will be as honest as her mother, so that you won't have to worry too much."

When Mother Cui was helping the eldest lady to get up, she told her about Zhao Fangyu sending flowers, and even repeated Zhao Fangyu's words verbatim.

The eldest lady inserted a glass hairpin into her hair indifferently: "What's the good of being like her mother? It's better to be like my Jin'er, otherwise how can she be the mistress of the house?"

"There are no girls in my courtyard who want to be concubines."
