At Shi Yuan's command, the guards passed by Shi Xiaoxiao in an orderly manner and guarded the yard.

Xiaoxiao was stunned when she saw it.

She was just ignored!

The door creaked open.

Shi Yuan came out and his expression softened when he saw Shi Xiaoxiao. "Xiaoxiao, why are you here?"

Shi Xiaoxiao leaned forward slightly, "Daughter came to see mother, Daddy, is mother okay?"

"She's fine. Look what she did. She ruined your coming-of-age ceremony. Daddy will definitely seek justice for you."

"Thank you, Daddy. I have something personal to say to you, so I won't delay you."

Shi Yuan waved his hand, "Go ahead, be careful."

Although he didn't understand what Shi Xiaoxiao wanted to do, he wouldn't stop her.

After watching Shi Yuan leave, Shi Xiaoxiao turned around and went into the house.

As soon as I entered the room, I saw Qian slumped on a stool with a look of despair, her eyes red, obviously from crying.

Seeing Shi Xiaoxiao come in, Qian looked at her hatefully, "Shi Xiaoxiao, seeing me like this, you must be very proud!"

Shi Xiaoxiao slowly walked up to her and looked down at her.

She chuckled, "How could mother say that? Xiaoxiao has always respected mother. Seeing mother like this, Xiaoxiao feels so sad."

Qian rolled her eyes and scoffed, "Stop being so hypocritical. You forced me to step down and let Song Dai give you a hairpin. You just wanted to humiliate me and make me lose face. Now I've embarrassed myself in front of so many people, and now you want to watch me make a fool of myself. Do you think you're satisfied?"

Shi Xiaoxiao couldn't help but chuckle, covering her mouth with her hands, fiddling with her nails with her hands. "Since mother said so, Xiaoxiao won't beat around the bush. Seeing mother like this, Xiaoxiao is really happy."

Glancing at Qian, she continued, "But I'm not here just to see your jokes. I'm here to ask Mother for someone."

Qian was stunned when she heard this and turned to look at her, "You want someone?"

Does Shi Xiaoxiao have someone here with her?

Shi Xiaoxiao's gaze shifted from her delicate jade fingers to Qian's. The corners of her mouth curled slightly, and her red lips parted slightly: "A Xing!"

Ah Xing?!

Qian looked at her fiercely and said through gritted teeth, "Is Ah Xing yours?"

She suddenly remembered that it was Ah Xing who poured her a cup of tea and told her that she had successfully drugged Shi Xiaoxiao. She was so happy that she drank the tea without any precautions.

Then I started to feel hot all over...

"It was you...it was you who ordered Ah Xing to drug me!"

She clenched her fists, her teeth chattered, her face was ferocious, her features were distorted, and hatred surged like a surging tide!

Her eyes were bloodshot, "I am your elder, how can you be so vicious!"

Shi Xiaoxiao's face was full of nonchalance, shaking her fingers, "No, no, no, why would mother say that to Xiaoxiao? Xiaoxiao is just giving someone a taste of their own medicine, how can it be malicious?"

As she spoke, she picked up a strand of hair and played with it with her fingertips, and glanced at the red mark on Qian's neck lightly.

"However, how come Mother didn't even recognize the medicine I prepared? How is it? Feeling good, right? I don't know why the man who had such a passionate relationship with Mother left her and left alone."

"Shi Xiaoxiao! You..."

Qian was so angry that her face turned red. She shouted Shi Xiaoxiao's name loudly and pointed at Shi Xiaoxiao with trembling fingers.

"Why are you so loud? It's not like I can't hear you!"

Qian was suddenly filled with fear.

How could a person who had been stupid for ten years come up with such an incredible plan overnight!

Could it be...

"Shi Xiaoxiao, you're not stupid at all, have you been pretending all along?"

"Pretending? If I was pretending to be stupid, how could I allow your daughter to bully me openly or secretly?"

Qian shook her head in disbelief: "Impossible, you can't have always been stupid."

Shi Xiaoxiao was too lazy to waste words with her anymore.

"Whether you believe it or not is up to you. Without further ado, I'll take Ah Xing away. As for you, you should think carefully about how to escape this disaster."

"Oh, don't even think about taking that slave away. Her bond is in my hands, and I can kill her at any time."

Shi Xiaoxiao smiled nonchalantly, "Mother, why is it that you still can't figure out the situation? Have you forgotten that just now, the power to manage the family belonged to my mother? As long as I like a maid, there is no one I can't have!"

Qian suddenly became speechless as if she had lost her temper.

Yes, she has lost her power as the head of the family. What else can she use to fight Shi Xiaoxiao?

It took him a long time to utter a word.

"Then what are you doing here?"

"Look at your joke!"

"go away!"

Qian was so angry that she swore never to see Shi Xiaoxiao again.

It really makes people angry!

"Since mother doesn't welcome me, Xiaoxiao will leave. Mother, please have a good rest. After all, the good days are coming to an end."

Shi Xiaoxiao smiled and left.

After leaving Qian's room, I found that Shi Wanwan was being stopped outside by the guards and was not allowed to enter.

She put her hands on her hips and pointed at the guard's nose and cursed.

"How dare you stop me from coming in? Believe it or not, I will punish you."

The guard remained unmoved even after being scolded.

"The master has ordered that outsiders are not allowed to enter."

"Outsider? How can I be an outsider if I enter my mother's yard?"

Shi Wanwan saw Shi Xiaoxiao coming out from the corner of her eye and her eyes widened.

Pointing at Shi Xiaoxiao, he asked the guard, "She can go in, why can't I?"

"The master has ordered that only the second young lady can enter."

"What?" Shi Wanwan was furious.

Shi Xiaoxiao chuckled, and Shi Wanwan glared at her: "What are you laughing at?"

Shi Xiaoxiao looked at her quietly, "Big sister, mother is now imprisoned in there as a criminal. It's different from before. It's better not to go in and get contaminated by the bad luck."

Hearing the word "unlucky", Shi Wanwan couldn't help but frown and scold her.

"Shut up! My mother is the mistress of the Xiangfu Mansion. How can a mere bastard like you slander her?"

Being the matron of the house?

Shi Xiaoxiao chuckled, "Sister, don't you know yet? Dad has now handed over the power of the head of the family to my mother. Mother is now nothing more than an empty shell."

Shi Wanwan was shocked. "How is this possible? Why would Daddy give my mother the power to manage the household to a concubine?"

"How can it be impossible? Dad loves my mom so much and is willing to consider everything for her. As for why, shouldn't my sister know best?"

Hearing this, Shi Wanwan looked at Shi Xiaoxiao in surprise and doubt. When she saw Shi Xiaoxiao appear safe and sound.

I already knew that the drug had failed.
