Reincarnated as the Abandoned Daughter of a Marquis's Mansion: I Take Control of My Life

The county town is not far from the capital. On the second night after Su Yinyin arrived, she decided to set off for the capital on the morning of the third day.

So, everyone in the living room was waiting for Su Yinyin to get up and leave.

Meanwhile, at the Su residence in the capital, Regent Zhou Yuan and Su Yi were locked in a fierce and evenly matched battle!

At first, they both just wanted to teach each other a lesson, but the more they fought, the more they admired and appreciated each other.

So Su Baobao was overlooked!

While the two were locked in a heated fight, Su Baobao openly walked out of the Su residence. Two adults fighting was simply too boring for a child.

So, Su Baobao appeared on the street. Looking at the dazzling array of things on the street, Su Baobao excitedly shuttled between the various stalls, looking here and there, thoroughly enjoying herself.

Suddenly, his eyes were drawn to a stall selling candied hawthorns; the bright red, juicy candied hawthorns looked exceptionally tempting.

Su Baobao couldn't help but swallow hard, reached into her pocket, and took out three copper coins to give to the shopkeeper.

Su Baobao took the candied hawthorn and ate it as she walked. The street was very crowded with people.

With a cry of "Ouch!", Su Baobao was knocked to the ground, her candied hawthorn skewer falling from her hand. The sedan chair bearers, startled, lost their balance, and the chair lurched.

"Where did this little brat come from? Can't you watch where you're going?" one of them cursed.

Su Baobao winced in pain, tears welling in his eyes. But he forced himself to get up, glared at the person, and said, "You knocked me down and then swore at me!"

At this moment, the curtain of the sedan chair was lifted, and a woman dressed in gorgeous clothes peeked out. When she saw Su Baobao, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, but she quickly regained her composure.

"You injured the child, how can you be so rude?" the woman said, her voice as melodious as a nightingale's. She got out of the sedan chair, walked to Su Baobao, squatted down, and asked with concern, "Little one, are you alright? Are you hurt?"

Looking at the beautiful and gentle woman before him, Su Baobao's grievances instantly vanished. He shook his head and said, "I'm fine." Then, he pointed to the candied hawthorn on the ground, "But my candied hawthorn is broken..."

"How about this? I'll have a servant buy you some candied hawthorns as compensation, okay?"

Su Baobao thought about it and realized that the compensation seemed reasonable. So she nodded in agreement.

But a child's mind can never compare to the depth of an adult's thoughts, nor to the malice of an adult.

The maid beside the beautiful young lady immediately understood what her mistress meant.

A moment later, the maid brought over thirty strings of candied hawthorns. "Miss, I've bought them."

The beautiful young lady glanced at the candied hawthorn in the maid's hand. Turning to Su Baobao, she said gently, "Little friend, it was the servant's fault for bumping into you. I'm willing to compensate you; look, I've bought the candied hawthorn." As she spoke, she pointed to the candied hawthorn in the maid's hand.

This move caused a stir among those around them.

"Isn't this Princess Anyang?"

"Yes, this is definitely Princess Anyang."

"I've heard that the Princess of Anyang is beautiful and kind-hearted."

You're wrong. I heard from a relative of a relative that this Princess Anyang is arrogant and domineering, and that's already widely known in their circle.

"Brother, please find a way to save that child." In a private room on the second floor of a roadside restaurant, a brother and sister were eating when they witnessed this scene.

Humans are truly wondrous. It's all fate; this woman is none other than the Princess Consort of the Yong'an Prince's Mansion.

"Let's go." The two of them joined the crowd in watching, and they also planned to act according to the situation.

"Thank you!" Su Baobao looked at the candied hawthorn in the maid's hand, naturally wondering what was going on, and politely said thank you.

Su Baobao accepted the candied hawthorn, but she only took one. After taking it, she thanked Princess Anyang.

However, just as Su Baobao was about to leave, several fierce-looking servants behind Princess Anyang blocked her way.

One of the servants said coldly, "Do you think you can leave like this? You broke our princess's jade bracelet. How are you going to settle this score?"

Su Baobao explained without changing her expression, "I didn't bump into the princess's jade bracelet!"

"Still trying to deny it!" another servant shouted. "You just said that one of our servants bumped into you!"

Su Baobao said coldly, "It was you who caused the accident." At this moment, Su Baobao understood what these people wanted to do, and that the gentle woman from before was not a good person at all.

The lead servant glanced at his princess, and seeing that she remained silent, he immediately understood and became even more arrogant, saying, "We broke one string of your candied hawthorns and compensated you with thirty strings. You broke our princess's jade bracelet, so compensate us with thirty identical jade bracelets!"

Those around were furious to hear that a princess was bullying a child like this.

No one dared to speak out, fearing they would be implicated, after all, they were just ordinary citizens.

They started whispering among themselves, "My goodness, I told you, this Princess Anyang has bad intentions, but you didn't believe me."

This poor child, I wonder what will happen to him in a moment.

Su Baobao completely understood what they wanted and said bluntly, "I only took one string of candied hawthorns. I'm not taking more from you. Oh, I see, you're trying to scam me?"

The princess's maidservant said, "Our princess has plenty of money, why would she need to extort a little brat like you! Do you know how precious this jade bracelet is, it was a gift from the Empress Dowager?"

Su Baobao sneered, straightened her back, and stared fearlessly at the princess, saying loudly, "Very well! Since this jade bracelet was a gift from the Empress Dowager, then let's go see her together and confront her face to face. I want to see who's lying!" The surrounding people cheered and supported Su Baobao's decision.

The princess's expression changed, and she said, "You, a commoner, are not worthy to see the Empress Dowager. The Empress Dowager is so noble, how can a child like you just visit her as you please?"

Su Baobao snorted twice, "Since I can't even see the Empress Dowager, how do I know if what you're saying is true or false? You want me to be a sucker and pay you for this broken bracelet?"

The surrounding people started talking about it again.

Isn't this bullying a child?

No, I don't know what this princess is thinking.

At this moment, Princess Yong'an could no longer stand it. "Alright, stop arguing!" Princess Yong'an said in a deep voice.

She walked up to Su Baobao and asked gently, "Child, I am Princess Yong'an. What is your name?"

Su Baobao raised her head and answered in a clear voice, "Your Highness, my name is Su Baobao."

Princess Yong'an nodded and said with a smile, "Su Baobao, don't be afraid. Since this matter involves items bestowed by the Empress Dowager, it cannot be taken lightly. I will send someone to report this matter to the Empress Dowager, and she will make a decision."

Princess Anyang said, "Li Feifei, who do you think you are, daring to interfere in my affairs?"

"Princess, watch your words!" Princess Yong'an's face darkened as she reprimanded, "In the palace, the most important thing is to follow the rules. Even though you are a princess, you cannot be so rude."

Besides, my rank is higher than yours. Although you are a princess, don't you even know the most basic etiquette? I will report this matter to the Empress.
