The gambling god's wife in the Duke's Mansion is getting divorced again

Being searched in public is the greatest humiliation for a woman.

Even if she didn't steal, she would not have the face to stay in Fengshui Town anymore.

Baili Xi waved Pei Qingwu away and smiled:

"It's broad daylight, and the county lady has at least eight maids around her. How could this woman get close to you and steal your jade pendant?"

The onlookers nodded repeatedly: "That's right, that's right."

"How can you bully others by taking advantage of your power?"

"We know Miss Sang. She is kind-hearted. How could she possibly steal your jade pendant?"

The people in the small town are simple and honest, and many neighbors know Sang Wan.

The Jianing County Lady glared at Baili Xi and said, "Commander Baili, are you slandering me for this little bitch? She didn't steal it, so am I wrongly accusing her?"

Baili Xi didn't give her any face at all: "That's not impossible."

The Princess of Jianing County was so angry that she vomited blood: "Baili Xi, you have embarrassed me in public. I will return to the capital and report you to the emperor."

"Go, go, go and sue me. If I were afraid of you, I would write it backwards."

Baili Xi rolled his eyes and chuckled at Sang Wan, "Hey, it's Li Bai, the great poet of the previous dynasty."

Seeing that he spoke incoherently and jumpily, Sang Wan inexplicably thought he was cute and smiled at him.

This faint smile fell into Baili Xi's eyes, like spring rain blowing down flowers, clear and with a hint of charm, his heart was intoxicated.

The Jianing County Lady was frustrated. She picked up her skirt and walked towards the carriage: "Bad luck!"

Sang Wan moved her fingers slightly, and a coin flew out and hit the calf of County Master Jianing. Her legs went weak and she fell to the ground.

"Hahahaha, the county lady is eating mud." Some curious people laughed.

"County Lady, is the jade pendant hidden in the mud? Would you like me to give you a hoe to dig it out?"

"If you don't dig it up today, someone will dig it up tomorrow."

Amid the ridicule of the crowd, Princess Jianing climbed onto the carriage in a panic.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Pei Qingwu also wanted to slip away.

"Stop!" Sang Wan stopped her.

"What do you want to do?" Pei Qingwu panicked, clutching the handkerchief and stepping back involuntarily.

Sang Wan, this bitch, is lucky. How did she get to know Baili Xi?

"Your people overturned my stall, pay me back." Sang Wan opened his palms to her.

Pei Qingwu gritted her teeth and tried to cheat: "Twenty cents, didn't I just give it to you?"

"A square silk handkerchief is twenty taels. Miss Third, don't you know how to count? Look at these silk handkerchiefs and round fans on the ground. My mother and I spent several days embroidering them. I won't cheat you. Thirty taels in total, pay me."

Pei Qingwu screamed, "Thirty taels! Are you crazy about the money? Why don't you just rob it?"

"A few days ago, Lord Baili bought forty handkerchiefs from me for twenty taels, is that correct?"

Sang Wan looked at Baili Xi with a smile.

Baili Xi was so captivated by her smile that he could only nod.

"Today there are a total of sixty silk handkerchiefs and twenty round fans. I charge you thirty taels, which is already a loss. If you are not convinced, I will have to sue you." Sang Wan had good reasons and refused to give in.

The onlookers hated these rich young men and women bullying others the most. Naturally, they spoke up for Sang Wan and blamed Pei Qingwu.

Baili Xi cleared his throat and looked at Pei Qingwu: "I am an official. If Miss Pei San is dissatisfied, then come with me to the county government office and we can discuss it."

Pei Qingwu's face turned pale. "I'm not going to the county government office! I'm not going!"

She is the daughter of the Duke of Zhenguo, so why would she go to the county government?

If we discuss marriage in the future, wouldn’t it just lead to gossip?

"I'll compensate you!" Pei Qingwu called the maid, took out thirty taels of silver and threw it at Sang Wan.

Sang Wan calmly put away the banknotes, looked at her back and said, "Stop!"

Pei Qingwu stamped her feet in anger: "Sang Wan! What else do you want!"

"You slapped me, what do you want to do?" Sang Wan's black eyes were cold.

Pei Qingwu had never seen her so tough before, and was momentarily panicked: "You, what do you want?"

Sang Wan took a step closer to her and slapped her in the face.

The crisp sound of a slap echoed throughout the streets.

"Okay, we're even."

Pei Qingwu climbed onto the carriage in a panic amidst the overwhelming laughter.

When getting on the car, he missed a step and almost fell off. It was an extremely embarrassing scene.

Baili Xi put his hands on his chest, raised his eyebrows and laughed, his eyes full of admiration: "Miss Sang, you are so courageous!"

Sang Wan only responded calmly, lowering her head to pick up the handkerchief: "Thank you for the compliment."

"One is the sister of the emperor's favorite concubine, and the other is Pei Jinzhi's sister. Are you not afraid at all?"

Sang Wan stopped, looked up and looked into his eyes, her expression calm:

"I don't care whose sister she is. If no one offends me, I won't offend anyone."

The hatred for her father's murder was irreconcilable. If there had not been so many onlookers today, she would have wanted to poison the Princess Jianing.

Bailixi squatted down and helped her pick up the things, feeling a little distressed: "Next time you go out to sell things, I will ask someone to protect you."

"No need, Lord Baili. Thank you for your help. It's already presumptuous of us to meet by chance. I'm sorry to bother you any further. Goodbye." Sang Wan collected the embroidered handkerchiefs and dirty and tattered round fans on the ground, bowed to Baili Xi, and left without any reluctance.

Baili Xi strode forward, walked backwards, tilted his head and smiled at her:

"Why did Miss Sang reject me so much? Is it because of Wen Ruo?"

"Why mention him?" Sang Wan frowned.

"Ha, I see, you hate him."

Baili Xi felt inexplicably excited, as this was very important to him.

After all, you can't bully your brother's wife, and no matter how well you wield a hoe, you can't steal your brother's wife.

Now one of them says they are done with each other and the other doesn't want to mention it anymore, so their relationship must have broken down.

Then... he won't be polite.

Sang Wan paused and smiled faintly: "It's more than just annoying."

I wish I could poison him to death.

"Miss Sang, what do you think of me?"

Baili Xi clenched his fist, put it under his nose and cleared his throat.

Sang Wan walked around him and moved further away from him: "Master Baili is young and promising, a pillar of the country."

Baili Xi's eyebrows lit up with joy: "Then Miss Sang, would you consider trying it with me?"

Sang Wan held the bamboo basket, frowned, and looked at him in confusion: "What are you trying?"

Baili Xi touched his nose and smiled awkwardly, "Although I can't marry you as my principal wife, I have all the same responsibilities as other women, except for the position of mistress. If you don't want to live with the rest of the family, I can buy you a separate house in the capital, and you can also bring your mother over to live with us."

It was rare for him not to smile playfully. He spoke very sincerely, with a burning gaze, as if he had been thinking for a long time.

Seeing that he was serious, Sang Wan knew that he was indeed sincere and she couldn't just give him a perfunctory response.

A gust of wind blew, and she gently lifted the hair by her ear, her eyes as warm as water:

"Master Baili, what you said really touched my heart."

Baili Xi was so excited that even his voice changed: "You agreed?!"

In the carriage not far away, Pei Jinzhi, who was watching this scene quietly, lowered the curtain and said in a deep voice, "Let's go."

Sang Wan and Baili Xi were completely unaware.

Sang Wan looked at him, his wheat-colored skin reflecting the sunlight, completely different from Pei Jinzhi.

Pei is gloomy, but he is free and easy; Pei is as gloomy as a tree, but he is as lively as a tiger or leopard with endless energy.

"I appreciate Lord Baili's kindness, but I am of humble status. How can I be worthy of being your concubine? You have a bright future. The capital is full of noble ladies, and there must be someone who matches you. Thank you for your kindness."

Baili Xi got anxious and stretched out his hand to block her way:

"Since you say I'm good, you're interested in me. If I say you're worthy, then you're worthy. What others think is none of my business."

"You're wrong. When I said hello to you, I didn't mean anything to you." Sang Wan stopped beating around the bush and went straight to the point.

What's the standard term for giving a nice guy card? Don't you understand?

Baili Xi licked his lips, feeling unwilling:

"Are you thinking of Wen Ruo? He's the crown prince, and he'll marry a woman of equal status in the future. If you follow him, you can only be a concubine. But when it comes to wealth, who in the world can compare with the Baili family? Miss Sang, I will never treat you unfairly. Apart from status, I can give you everything!"

Sang Wan became irritated when she heard Pei Jinzhi's name. She lowered her head and quickened her pace: "Master Baili, please don't misunderstand me again. Prince Pei and you are like clouds in the sky. I dare not have any unrealistic thoughts. I have an elderly mother at home who needs to be taken care of. It is inconvenient for me to stay for long. Goodbye."

This time she ran away as soon as she finished speaking and disappeared in a short time.

Baili Xi stretched out his hand but found nothing, his face full of disappointment:

"Look at this little person, how can he run so fast?"
