How can someone travel through time and space and become a beggar?

She quietly hid behind the crowd, secretly gritting her teeth, wishing she could bite Tian Ruier to death. But the people in front of her quietly gave up their seats, leaving a circle around her. The others looked at her with curiosity, contempt, or doubt.

Xia Chu looked at her, seeing how weak and fragile she was, with a slightly frown on her face, as if she had been innocently bullied.

"Cousin." Jia Wanqing pinched her sleeve and looked at Sun Zhixia.

"What? You're hiding now?" Tian Rui'er admired Sun Zhixia's embarrassment, feeling incredibly happy. "Come over and kowtow! You're pretending to be someone you are! My Aunt Jia has been incredibly beautiful since she was a child, and you don't even look in the mirror. Oh, don't you have a mirror at home? And what good can a concubine born out of an unmatched marriage bring? I heard that as soon as my Aunt Jia divorced, your family started selling off their house to make ends meet? You're fighting tooth and nail to get into a circle you can't even break into, but you don't realize we're all just watching you, a clown, for fun."

"Enough!" Fang Miaomiao stood in front of Sun Zhixia, who was about to cry and was filled with shame and anger. "Don't go too far! You didn't choose your birth! Why do you always keep pestering me?!"

"You don't think she really wants to be friends with you, do you?" Tian Rui'er sneered, "You idiot, others are using you as a stepping stone."

"What does it have to do with you!" Fang Miaomiao's eyebrows were raised. She wouldn't believe Tian Ruier's words. Sun Zhixia had saved her before. Although he was a little timid, he was a good person.

Seeing that another quarrel was about to break out, Xia Chu felt a headache. She wanted to see the Sun family suffer, but she didn't like Tian Rui'er using her and Jia Qingwu as pawns, so she couldn't help but remind them, "Today is the Li family's banquet, everyone, please restrain yourself."

Tian Ruier stopped while she was ahead, "Sister, I also can't stand Sun Zhixia's behavior. If her words or actions make you unhappy, I will come to your house to apologize someday." She looked at Xia Chu with a gentle expression and a smile on her face.

Xia Chu stared at her. "No need. My mother has no connection to the Sun family anymore, and she doesn't want anything to do with it anymore. My last name isn't Sun either." Then, she took Jia Wanlin and Jia Wanqing and left. Qiu Shuang was thinking about calling her mistress over if they started arguing, but she didn't expect them to just break up like that. With a sigh of relief, she followed Xia Chu.

After what happened, Sun Zhixia really couldn't stay any longer. She squeezed out a few tears, said goodbye to Fang Miaomiao, and left. She had originally thought that she could get to know other young ladies, and it would be even better if she could meet some men from well-off families. But Tian Ruier ruined it again, and she gritted her teeth in anger.

After Jia Qingwu left the Sun family, the marriage she had been discussing was canceled. Her family was struggling financially, and her parents had no intention of finding a good husband for her. But as she grew older, she became increasingly anxious. She repeatedly tried to leverage the Fang family's connections and find a solution on her own, but who would have thought she'd run into Tian Rui'er every time? Every time they met, she was humiliated!

Sun Zhixia exerted force, her nails piercing the silk handkerchief. Pain shot through her fingertips, and she lowered her head, piercing a few more holes in the handkerchief with her nails. She only regretted that this handkerchief wasn't Tian Rui'er's!

But why didn't they know that Sun Juexia had been found? Did her parents know? Sun Juexia was the blood of the Sun family. If, if her father could recognize her, given how much Jia Qingwu loved her daughter, she would definitely not ignore the Sun family. She had an idea in mind and quickened her pace to leave the Li family.

Xia Chu didn't know that she was being targeted, and felt that none of the Tian sisters were good people.

"Cousin..." Jia Wanlin called cautiously.

"It's okay, it's just too noisy." Xia Chu rubbed his forehead and looked at Qiu Shuang, "Sister Qiu Shuang, can you take us somewhere else to hang out?"

"Sure." Qiu Shuang thought about it. Madam had instructed that if the three young ladies were bored, she should take them to the greenhouse to play. "It's cold outside, why not go to the greenhouse and see how many flowers are planted there. Madam likes to sit there when she's free."

"Okay." Xia Chu nodded.

Qiu Shuang took them to the conservatory, but on the way they would pass the men's quarters. She deliberately took them around through the corridor, but unexpectedly ran into You Shaofeng who had come out for some fresh air.

"Madam Wang." You Shaofeng came forward to greet her, his face full of surprise. "Why are you here? Could it be that..." you are here to see me? However, when he saw the Jia sisters, he put away this idea.

"Third Young Master," Qiu Shuang bowed, not even looking up, and said, "I was just about to take the three young ladies to the greenhouse to see the flowers that Madam has planted."

"Mr. You." Xia Chu and her sisters bowed.

"Oh," You Shaofeng scratched his cheek, feeling a little warm. "Then have fun. My mom planted a lot of flowers." He wanted to follow, but it was impolite. Besides, he had guests to entertain, so he couldn't leave for too long. He just came out for some fresh air, and now it's time to go back. Thinking of this, he felt a little disappointed.

After saying goodbye to You Shaofeng, they didn't meet anyone else and arrived at the greenhouse smoothly.

It's called a greenhouse, but it's actually a courtyard. You can feel the temperature change as soon as you enter. It's obviously warmer here than other places, and the air has a rich floral fragrance.

"It smells so good." Jia Wanqing controlled herself from looking around, but secretly sniffed the fragrance in the air a few more times.

Qiu Shuang smiled and dismissed the servants who came forward to greet her. The courtyard looked like it had three rooms: the front, and the left and right. Qiu Shuang walked straight forward and pushed open the front door. A warm feeling rushed towards her, making her feel comfortable all over.

As soon as I entered, vibrant colors filled my view. The room was large, yet the lush flowers made it seem a bit cramped. Wooden shelves of varying heights were filled with pots of flowers arranged in various categories, leaving only a narrow path leading inside.

Qiu Shuang closed the door behind her to prevent the cold air from entering and freezing the flowers and plants. "Inside is where the Madam can take a nap."

"My aunt actually grows so many flowers?" Xia Chu exclaimed. Seeing the blooming peonies and camellias at this time of year gave her a feeling of traveling through time.

"Aunt Li really loves flowers." Jia Wanlin was overwhelmed by the sight. She couldn't even recognize the varieties of some of the flowers.

"It's so beautiful." Jia Wanqing felt like she had entered spring. She smiled with her eyes narrowed, wanting to touch this and smell that.

"My lady always loves these things." This greenhouse cost a lot of money to build, but the master loved it and happily spent money on it.

Walking inside, a light yellow curtain hung from the ceiling, enclosed a small room. Inside, there were tables, chairs, a chaise longue, and even a large swing. The swing was so large that it was more than enough for a person to lie down on.

Aunt Li was a real pleasure-seeker. Xia Chu couldn't afford to lie down on the chaise longue, so she sat on the swing. Jia Wanlin and Jia Wanqing also joined her, leaving plenty of room for the three of them.

"Ladies, please sit down. I'll have tea brought over." Qiu Shuang said with a smile, then walked out. The conservatory wasn't open to anyone else, especially the young master. Anyone who approached would be scolded. Li Xuemu was afraid that the brat might accidentally touch her precious flowers, so others rarely came. This was Li Xuemu's favorite place to stay when she was bored or tired. There was also a bedroom inside.

Sometimes when the couple had a quarrel, Li Xuemu would hide in the greenhouse to sleep.
