Demoted from wife to concubine? Reborn, the mistress of a noble family plots another high-status mar

Chapter 102

But little did she know that the items weren't for her own use.

Yun Xiyue sneered inwardly, "Then they're in cahoots to extort us."

"Don't worry, the innocent will clear themselves. We'll do our job well, and our staff will check everything carefully to avoid any more mistakes."

Manager Tong understood that the Shen family would not let this go easily. Having been tricked once, they could not afford to be careless and fall for it again. "This old servant understands, Miss, please rest assured."

Yun Xiyue nodded and led her people back first, knowing that Madam Shen Zhou would definitely have a backup plan.

Sure enough, as soon as she arrived at her doorstep, the Shen family sent someone to invite her.

"Madam, the Grand Madam requests your return."

Yun Xiyue sneered, "I have absolutely no connection with Shen Yue and the Shen family anymore. Please don't call me Madam. I am not your Madam."

Dongxue looked embarrassed. She was a first-class maid in the Grand Madam's courtyard. In the past, when Yun Xiyue was in the Marquis's mansion, she would never dare to treat her like this.

She used to call herself the Lady of the Marquis's Mansion, but in reality, no one in the Marquis's Mansion took her seriously. She also knew that the Grand Madam only regarded her as the Marquis's Mansion's money bag.

But Yun Xiyue didn't know that she was diligently handling all the affairs of the Marquis's mansion, big and small, and in order to please the Grand Madam, she often sent gifts to the people of Songhe Garden.

Yun Xiyue was very generous. As long as the old lady and others praised her, she would be grateful and selfless. She would bring all the good things to the old lady and the servants, and they would also benefit from it.

Over the past five years, they have certainly whetted the appetites of all of them.

Dongxue was taken aback by Yun Xiyue's sudden cold shoulder. She was just a lowly merchant who had been divorced by the Marquis. What right did she have to be arrogant?

So what if they have a little money?

I bother!

“Miss Yun, I advise you not to act rashly. Offending the Grand Madam will do you no good.” Dongxue’s eyes were filled with disdain, and her tone was threatening.

Qingmei was so angry she wanted to beat her to death. "Get out! Who do you think you are, daring to speak to our young lady like that?"

Dongxue was startled and quickly backed away. "Let me tell you, I am the first-class maidservant of the Grand Madam."

"The Grand Madam invited her to the Marquis's residence to discuss the Second Miss's disfigurement. If you don't go, you can forget about opening your shop."

After saying that, she turned and left.

Qingmei asked, "Miss, what should we do?"

When the Yun family first started doing business in the capital, the rouge shop belonged to Yun Xiyue. If she wanted to take over the Yun family and become the head of the Yun clan, she would have to achieve some success.

Otherwise, the people in Yunzhou would definitely not recognize her identity.

This is just the beginning, and problems have already arisen; things will only get more difficult from here on out.

Yun Xiyue laughed and said, "It's alright, we'll deal with whatever comes our way. If the Shen family wants to force me to submit using this method, then we can't compromise."

“They cannot shut down our shop without evidence.”

If you don't report it to the authorities, isn't that just a sign of a guilty conscience?

"Miss, something terrible has happened! Our rouge shop has been shut down. The officials arrived right after you left."
