Mrs. Zhou stole a glance and saw Zhou Mingzhu pinching her hands.

No wonder, what Zhou Mingzhu was most proud of in recent years was that her sister Zhou had snatched her engagement away.

But she also successfully sold her sister's biological daughter to a brothel.

Until Zhou Mingzhu returned from exile, she complacently believed that Nan Chuzheng had died in the brothel.

Little did they know that Nan Chuzheng was adopted before she had even spent a single day in the brothel.

Judging from Nan Chuzheng's current demeanor, she is living a good life supporting her family.

No worse than a rich lady who lives a life of luxury.

And others can accept this.

Zhou Mingzhu couldn't accept it.

"Why?"

Zhou Mingzhu's pretty face was filled with a ferocious expression.

Why can her sister's daughter live better than Chu Jingyue after her sister snatched her engagement?

Zhou Mingzhu suddenly turned around and walked directly towards the front hall.

Mrs. Zhou stood up with a smile on her face and said to the ladies who came to visit,

"I'm sorry, Mingzhu has been in exile for too long, so this may be a bit disrespectful. She may have forgotten the rules."

The noble ladies who came to visit the Zhou family didn't look down on the Zhou and Su families.

What are their identities, and what are the identities of the Zhou family and the Su family?

Even if Su Shizhi has made great contributions, can't he wait until the reward comes before holding a banquet to celebrate?

Their husbands were busy trying to curry favor with the Su family, wanting to establish good relations with them before the Su family rose to power.

But the Su family should have some shame. They just returned to the imperial capital and held a banquet without even a house.

Doesn't Zhou Mingzhu know that this is very rude to the distinguished guests?

Oh, she didn't know.

Because Zhou Mingzhu doesn't know the etiquette of the upper class at all.

She grew up in the Zhou family, a family of minor ninth-rank officials, and later married the distinguished scholar Su Shizhi.

He was exiled soon after.

What kind of etiquette could Zhou Mingzhu learn about dealing with people in that barbaric frontier land?

All the noble ladies showed disdainful expressions on their faces.

Compare her with Mrs. Zhou.

Although today's banquet was hosted by the Su family, Mrs. Zhou's way of dealing with people was much more tactful than Zhou Mingzhu's.

The ladies were also willing to chat with Mrs. Zhou for a while.

Everyone was talking in the backyard when Nan Chuzheng was welcomed into the backyard.

Mrs. Zhou stepped forward with a smile, acting very appropriately and with a sense of propriety.

"Chu Zheng, you're here."

"Tell me, your child married the Lord of Yama, and you didn't inform us."

The ladies gasped.

This... is the wife of the Chief of Yama Division?

Is it true or false? I never thought that the Zhou family really has hidden talents.

Not only is he a relative of the Su family, but he can also invite the wife of the head of the Yama Division to host half of the banquet?

Among all the ladies here, who is not a smart person?

Their husbands worked tirelessly in the court and cursed Yama at home.

After cursing, he racked his brains to curry favor with Yama Luosi.

After everyone took a deep breath, they looked at Nan Chuzheng with shining eyes.

If they could become friends with Nan Chuzheng, wouldn't the problems in their respective families be easily solved?

Nan Chuzheng spoke to Madam Zhou with a smile on her face, but was not very friendly to the other ladies.

She was taken to the flower hall by Madam Zhou, and several ladies inside immediately stood up and surrounded Nan Chuzheng to greet her.

Zhou Mingzhu searched all the way to the front yard, and then from the front yard back to the back yard.

What I saw was the scene in the backyard where everyone was vying to curry favor with Nan Chuzheng.

She took a deep breath and dug her nails into her palms.

And behind her, a cheerful, faint voice suddenly sounded,

"See? You tried so hard to torture me, but my daughter is now so much more powerful than your daughter."

Zhou Mingzhu suddenly turned around and saw Zhou, who was skinny but with pearls and jade on her head and dressed in gorgeous clothes, standing behind her.

"elder sister!"

Zhou Mingzhu had a sharp voice and a ferocious look on her face, which was covered with patches of blood.

In comparison, Zhou seemed much calmer.

Although she was very thin and her complexion was covered with makeup, she could not hide her sickness.

But Zhou's eyes were bright.

She took two steps forward and said with a smile:

"Mingzhu, it's been a long time since we last met. I hope you're doing well in exile."

As if to deliberately provoke Zhou Mingzhu, Zhou raised her finger and tugged at Zhou Mingzhu's sleeve.

"Is this the fabric you asked our sister-in-law for? She's so generous. The Chu family has only acquired two pieces of fabric in its thousand-year history, and I gave her one."

"I didn't expect that she treated herself so preciously that she didn't even bother making a piece of clothing for herself, but made clothes for you."

"Tsk, it's just a piece of cloth. If you like it, ask me for more..."

These words made Zhou Mingzhu furious.

She grabbed Zhou's neck, her eyes bulging.

"Sister, you are very proud, aren't you? Don't think I don't know, does your family still have money?"

"Your biological daughter is right here. If she were really the wife of the head of the Yama Division, would your Chu family still be living in such a miserable state?"

As soon as Zhou Mingzhu returned to the imperial capital, he began to inquire about the Chu family's affairs, both openly and secretly.

The confidant did not tell her about Nan Chuzheng.

He only talked about the recent situation of the Chu family.

Then Zhou Mingzhu took it for granted that if Nan Chuzheng was really the wife of the Master Si.

The Chu family should never be in such a situation.

Zhou was not in a hurry. Just as the Chu family looked down on Chu Zheng in the past, Zhou Mingzhu would soon suffer the same fate as the Chu family.

She uttered a word softly,

"Sister, welcome back to hell on earth!"

She will live well, no matter what, and see what happens to Zhou Mingzhu.

A strange smile appeared on Zhou Mingzhu's face.

"You're so funny. The Imperial City is a living hell?"

"No, you don't understand what true hell on earth is. Thanks to you, I have experienced the hell on earth, and I must let you and your daughter experience the same."

Is it so easy to travel a thousand miles into exile?

No one knows what Zhou Mingzhu endured in order to survive.

Zhou Mingzhu vowed to make her sister's daughter pay for such humiliation.

Nan Chuzheng should have been in a brothel, being raped by all kinds of men.

Just as Zhou Mingzhu experienced.

So how could Nan Chuzheng be the wife of Master Si?

How could she be so favored by the powerful ladies in the imperial capital?

The sisters Zhou Mingzhu and Zhou looked at each other with smiles on their faces.

They look like a pair of sisters who have a very good relationship.

In the flower hall, Madam Zhou also smiled and said to Nan Chuzheng,

"Great! Everyone is here! Our Zhou family is really lively today."

She handed Nan Chuzheng a cup of tea.

It was blocked by Xiaoyin.

The mistress of the Nan family is of noble status, and the eldest daughter is pregnant.

Where can I eat out?

Nan Chuzheng looked at the Zhou sisters walking hand in hand into the flower hall. What a Shura scene.

Tsk tsk.
