The merchant's rebirth led to the complete downfall of the Marquis's mansion.

After witnessing Jiang Su and Xia Qiutang being flogged, Qin Yao bid farewell to Liu Qingping and went to the Jiang family.

The carriage was parked opposite the Jiang family's residence. The curtain was slightly lifted, and the Jiang family members were quickly ushered out.

The one leading the group was Jiang Xiaoxiao; she was kicked out before she even knew what had happened.

Liu was naturally helped out, but Xia Qiutang was not even able to go in.

He had just been flogged and was being carried away. Before he could even see a doctor, he was blocked at the door.

Their belongings were also thrown out, and a group of servants stood aside, not daring to breathe.

Jiang Xiaoxiao, relying on her status as a young lady, cursed a few times, only to find that those people ignored her completely, and in the end, they even threatened her with a knife.

Jiang Xiaoxiao, who was already a bully who preyed on the weak, immediately fell silent.

Liu wanted to curse loudly, but they were already commoners, and it was the Princess who gave the order, so she didn't dare to say anything.

Therefore, all he could do was stand by, heartbroken and pounding his chest.

Seeing that his masters were all too preoccupied with their grief, the steward had no choice but to have his luggage packed up and the items loaded onto the carriage.

“Madam…” the butler hesitated as he stepped forward, “Where are we going now?”

Liu was someone who didn't manage the household and had no ideas whatsoever. When she heard the steward ask her that question, she almost burst into tears.

How would she know where to go? She's lived here her whole life and doesn't want to go there.

Xia Qiutang was still lying there groaning when she saw the whole family blocking the doorway, and she was furious.

"Butler, go...go to that house in the west of the city!" Xia Qiutang twitched in pain as she spoke.

Xia Qiutang felt that if she didn't go to the clinic soon, she was afraid she would die.

She needs to get there first; after treating her injuries, she needs somewhere to go, right?

The housekeeper went to tidy up first, so she could start recuperating when she got back.

Just as Xia Qiutang was about to suggest going to the clinic, she heard Liu's voice refuting her suggestion.

"How can anyone live in such a small place!"

Xia Qiutang was in so much pain that she was sweating profusely, so she had no time to pay attention to Liu Shi! Before, Liu Shi was the wife of the Marquis, and Xia Qiutang had to give way to her.

Later, they lived together again. Liu, relying on being the mother-in-law and having been the Lady of the Marquis for so many years, really didn't treat her well.

But what about now? They've all been driven out of the Marquis's mansion! And they still dream of a grand courtyard and a multitude of servants?

Xia Qiutang didn't indulge her either.

"If Mother feels this is inappropriate, she should find a place to go herself!"

After saying that, Xia Qiutang didn't have another chance and asked the driver to go to the clinic.

The house in the west of the city was still part of her dowry! Did she really welcome them?

She'd planned everything, and now her husband's family didn't even have a place to live! What kind of mess is this!

Xia Qiutang endured both physical and mental torment and went to the clinic.

Behind her, Liu seemed to have suffered a tremendous injustice.

"How dare she talk to me like that! I'm... her mother-in-law!"

Jiang Xiaoxiao leaned against the carriage while waiting for the maids and servants to pack their things, and rolled her eyes at Liu Shi.

Although the Marquis's family didn't have much money before, they still had a noble title, so they were considered to have a certain status. If Qin Yao were added to the family, they would have everything.

Her brother insisted on liking Xia Shunu, and her mother also disliked Qin Yao. As soon as Xia Shunu entered the family, her life suddenly dropped several degrees.

What's even more terrifying is that she lost the identity she was so proud of, all because of her mother's actions!

The noble ladies who used to be on good terms with her no longer pay attention to her. She sent them invitations several times, but they didn't even bother to address her, simply telling her that their social statuses were different!

She will be of marriageable age in two years. She originally thought highly of the Wu family. After all, Lord Wu is in the Hanlin Academy, and she gets along well with Miss Wu.

Now look what's happened, they've cut ties with her completely.

She knew that Miss Wu liked the Qin family's jewelry, and she even went to see Qin Yao, but the despicable Qin Yao refused to see her.

She was too ashamed to go out now. She felt like everyone around her was laughing at her whenever she went out, so she stayed at home for the time being.

Unexpectedly, hiding didn't work, and he was even kicked out of his home.

People around them started pointing and whispering, and Jiang Xiaoxiao could no longer bear it, so she got into the carriage in two steps.

Her disgraced mother, Liu, was still there weeping.

Jiang Xiaoxiao's chest heaved with anger. "Changwu, let's go! Let's go there first!"

She just couldn't take it anymore.

Since losing her title, her mother has become increasingly unrefined, losing face in public like this. How will she ever get married again?

"Giddy up!" The sound of the carriage leaving startled Liu Shi.

She stared in disbelief at the departing carriage, and it took her a while to realize that it was her daughter's carriage.

Their family only had two carriages, which Xia Qiutang had rented. Now, she needed to load her luggage into the carriage in front of her. How was she supposed to leave?

The whispers and pointing fingers around her finally provoked Liu, and she hurriedly covered her face with a handkerchief.

"Take me there first!" Liu climbed into the carriage and asked someone to drive.

The butler, still directing the moving of things: "..."

Now they're forced to carry everything over?

"Miss, they're so funny!" Qingzhi couldn't suppress her smile after watching the whole thing.

"Of course, unity relies not only on blood ties and emotions, but also on material support and recognition. They have nothing now, so how can they be the same as before?"

Qin Yao lowered the curtain; the play was over, and she could leave now.

The carriage quietly departed, as if it had never been there.

It's good news that Jiang Su has lost the opportunity to take the imperial examination.

However, this is not enough!

"Light branch!"

"Miss." Qingzhi turned her head to listen to the instructions.

"The Jiang family's butler is loyal. Even if they move, they can probably manage to get by by being frugal."

"What do you mean, miss?"

"Miss, I don't want to see that family in Kyoto anymore. What do you think about starting with the butler?"

Qingzhi nodded, "Of course! Everything Miss wants to do must have a reason, and Qingzhi supports it all. Miss, is there anything I can do for you?"

Qingzhi's eyes were bright, her heart filled with the joy of the task her young lady was about to give her.

Qin Yao smiled and tapped her forehead.

Qingzhi is naive; otherwise, she wouldn't have been so easily deceived by the housekeeper's son in her past life, without even asking her for help.

"Then it's up to you!" Qin Yao leaned closer to her and whispered something in her ear.

Qingzhi's eyes lit up again after hearing this.

"Miss, Qingzhi will definitely complete the mission!" It was the first time Qingzhi had done something like this, and she was very excited.

Finally, I can help Miss with her burdens, just like Sister Qiuliu.

Seeing her excited expression, Qin Yao thought of how she had died mysteriously in her previous life.

That's them!

Jiang Su was the mastermind, while the Jiang family's steward and son were indeed the perpetrators.

This time, she and Qingzhi will work together to drag those who harmed them into the abyss.

Destroy their escape route and see what they can do next.

As soon as Qiu Liu got home, she was about to report the day's events to her mistress when she saw Qing Zhi leave with a happy expression on her face. She didn't even hear Qiu Liu calling her from behind.

Qiu Liu entered the room and recounted the events of the day.

Now everyone in the city knows what Jiang Su did. No one is helping him, and he is despised. It will be very difficult for him to turn things around!

Next, we'll have to see what Qingzhi does.
