"When the late emperor was alive, he issued a strict ban on these filthy things. Once discovered, they were severely punished. I never thought that at such a young age, you could have such a vicious mind. The Jiang family cannot keep you. Come, send her to the family temple, so that she can reflect on her sins and atone for her sins."

"Old lady, please have mercy on us! The fourth young lady is still young and ignorant. She must have been bewitched by the maids and servants around her. If you drive her out, she will probably die. Old lady, you are kind-hearted. Please spare the fourth young lady this time! I kowtow to you!" Aunt Ji cried and pleaded for Jiang Xinxue.

Jiang Hongtai also rushed over and knelt on the ground with a thud.

"Mother, please forgive me. It's my fault for not raising my daughter well. That's why this evil girl is so bold. Mother wants to punish her, but I have no complaints. I just hope you take care of yourself and don't get too angry!"

After hearing what Jiang Hongtai said, Aunt Ji burst into tears. "Master, she is your daughter! She is so young, how can you bear to see her alone and helpless and live out her life!"

"She brought this upon herself! No one else can be blamed!" Jiang Hongtai said gritting his teeth.

Seeing the two of them singing the same tune, Jiang Shuyu's eyes flashed with sarcasm. Jiang Hongtai spoke in a majestic manner, but he must have hated his grandmother to the core in his heart!

Although Jiang Xinxue is a concubine's daughter, Jiang Hongtai taught her no less than Jiang Wanrong, so he naturally would not let her suffer this loss.

Sure enough, before Jiang Hongtai could say anything more, the maid who served Jiang Xinxue stood up tremblingly.

"It has nothing to do with the Fourth Miss. I made that thing, but I didn't expect that the Fourth Miss would pick it up. I was good friends with Yuzhu, but the Third Miss sent Yuzhu to do rough work. I was so angry that I did something stupid. I deserve to die!" After the maid finished speaking, she rushed towards the wardrobe. Blood spurted out instantly, and everyone exclaimed in shock.

Madam Jiang's face was solemn, and she looked at Jiang Hongtai with complicated eyes. After a long while, Madam Jiang slowly said, "You can escape the death penalty, but you can't escape the living punishment! From now on, you will stay in this courtyard and reflect on your mistakes. You are not allowed to take a single step out!"

Seeing Yan Xiaojun's pale face and weak body, Mrs. Jiang sighed softly, then glanced at Jiang Shuya, a glimmer of light flashed in her eyes.

"From today on, Yuan will hand over the housekeeper's cards to Shuya for temporary safekeeping, while Ruan will assist in management."

"Mother, Shuya is still young. How can she manage the Duke's Mansion? I know I was wrong. Mother, please give me another chance!" Yuan Peishan did not expect that Madam Jiang would suddenly attack her. She panicked and quickly pleaded for mercy.

"She's not young anymore. Shuya will soon be of marriageable age and will be married soon. It's time for her to study hard. It's a good opportunity for Yan to teach her. This way, Shuya won't have any regrets when she gets married in the future." Old Madam Jiang said with a melancholy look on her face. Then she looked at Yuan Peishan seriously and said:

"Yan is weak, so I handed the Duke's Mansion over to you. Now that such a disaster has happened, you should take a rest for a while!"

Even though Old Madam Jiang no longer cares about the affairs of the mansion, her words are still irrefutable.

"Yes"

No matter how unwilling Yuan Peishan felt, she could only accept her fate and obey obediently. There was murderous intent in her eyes as she looked at Jiang Xinxue. She would not let her have an easy time!

After Old Madam Jiang left, everyone left one after another. Looking at Jiang Xinxue's pale face, Jiang Shuyu couldn't help but think of her arrogant look at the beginning. This was just the beginning.

……

Not long after Jiang Shuyu returned to the courtyard, Jiang Wanrong brought people to deliver the things. Seeing Jiang Shuyu's calm and composed appearance, Jiang Wanrong suddenly became angry, "What a jinx! You've made the whole house a mess because of you. Now you're happy, right?"

Seeing Jiang Wanrong's angry expression, Jiang Shuyu curled her lips and smiled slightly. Jiang Wanrong was still young and showed her joy on her face, but she was far inferior to the elegant and noble Princess Rui in her previous life.

"I'm so happy! How can I not be happy when I get back what belongs to me?"

"You!" Jiang Wanrong was furious. She looked at my Shuyu and said contemptuously, "Humph! You stink of money! Then you better count carefully, don't miss anything! Then you can cheat me later!"

"Of course! If you had kept it for me, I would have suffered a great loss!" Jiang Shuyu ignored Jiang Wanrong's sarcasm, and then asked Yu Lan and the other person to compare it themselves.

Jiang Wanrong snorted coldly, looking at Jiang Shuyu with disdain: "Humph! Do you think I am you? I don't care about you who have never seen the world!"

Seeing the red agate headpiece that Yu Lan took out from the box, Jiang Wanrong was immediately surprised.

She just delivered the things as Yuan Peishan instructed, but she didn't know that there were such valuables inside.

No wonder that little bitch Jiang Xinxue wanted to take it for herself. If it were her, she would definitely not be as stupid as her and let others catch her!

Seeing the greed in Jiang Wanrong's eyes, Jiang Shuyu's eyes flashed with a hint of sneer. She was probably a bit cowardly in her previous life, so she was skinned and torn apart by these jackals, tigers and leopards, leaving nothing but bones. If they still wanted to show their claws and fangs now, she would swing her knife and chop them off!

It was not until the last piece of jewelry was put into the box that Jiang Wanrong came back to her senses from her shock. She only knew that Jiang Shuyu was favored, but she didn't know that she actually had so many rare treasures. Compared with hers, her own collection was simply dwarfed.

Jiang Wanrong's blood boiled as she watched these things. These things should have belonged to her, and only she could be worthy of them. It was a waste of these treasures in Jiang Shuyu's hands.

One day, she will snatch everything that Jiang Shuyu has! Suppressing the desire in her heart, Jiang Wanrong pretended to be calm and said: "The things are right, and you are the only one who cares about these little things!"

"I'm sorry to have embarrassed you, second sister. It's not much, but I'm just short-sighted and noticed it!" Jiang Shuyu smiled calmly.

After checking everything, Yu Lan came to Jiang Shuyu and said, "Miss, everything else is correct, except for the Pisces jade pendant that the master gave to you."

You know, the girl has been wearing this Pisces pendant since she was a child, and she couldn't let it go. When it was "borrowed" by the fourth girl, the girl missed it for a long time!

Jiang Wanrong's hands, hidden in her sleeves, tightened involuntarily. She then looked at the maid beside her and angrily shouted, "Go find it for the Fourth Miss!"

Miaohan was stunned, and when she thought of the things our girl had just played with, she immediately reacted: "I remembered that one thing was left behind. I will go get it right away!" After saying that, she bowed and retreated.

Watching Miao Han leave, Jiang Wanrong's face was gloomy, as if water could drip out of it.

Soon, Miaohan came back, glanced at Jiang Wanrong secretly, and then tremblingly offered her hands to Jiang Shuyu.
