Divorce her scumbag husband, marry the war king, and the hot wife gets rich through her spatial abil

Xiao Nan glanced in the direction of the capital again. Since this upgrade, she seemed like a completely different person.

There are some people and some things that she can no longer interfere with; let nature take its course.

She took the old lady's hand and led her back upstairs. They set up a table and chairs in the courtyard, brewed a pot of fine tea, and leisurely drank it.

Just then, the butler came running up and whispered between the two of them.

"Madam, the poppies are nowhere to be found."

"When did this happen?"

"This morning, after the maids got up, they went about their duties. When they saw that she wasn't in her room, they assumed she had gone to do something. But they didn't see her all day."

The old lady asked, "Was the courtyard gate open this morning?"

It seems so.

"Maybe she left last night, and no one noticed she left any note or anything?"

"no"

"What an ingrate! No matter how you teach someone, they just keep doing things their own way. They'll regret it later."

Xiao Nan snorted: "Ignore her, she's just an insignificant wolf cub. Just do your own thing."

After the housekeeper left, the old lady asked worriedly, "That girl, could she have gone to the capital to find Ningxia and the others?"

"This name is really good. You're probably right. She's too ambitious."

The old lady's eyes widened, and she said incredulously, "Could it be that she still wants to be the empress?"

"Hmph, this empire was handed over to Meng Fei by the former emperor, not made him emperor. Even Meng Fei doesn't dare to call himself 'I,' so what is she thinking? It's nothing but power and wealth."

"Tsk tsk, she's got quite the ambition."

“I don’t care about anything else, but she absolutely cannot get close to my child, especially not to become my Xiao family’s daughter-in-law.”

"She seemed hostile towards the bright moon and the stars; I noticed this by chance."

"Hmph, it's nothing more than a trick to win favor. I intended to take her in as my daughter, but she always called me aunt. Even back then, she was more cunning than any adult."

"Sigh! People don't have eyes in the back and front. I saved her, but I never expected to save someone like this."

"Hmph, since she doesn't want to live a good life, then I'll just give her back what she lost."

Xiao Nan chuckled wickedly, unconcerned.

Just then, a horse, and a young man on its back, sneezed violently.

This person was Poppy. She disguised herself as a man, stole a horse from the estate, and galloped away.

Xiao Nan guessed correctly; she did want to go to the capital to find Ningxia and the others.

She was not young anymore, and she had grown into a woman whose beauty could rival that of the moon and shame the flowers. While she might not be considered a beauty that could topple kingdoms, her looks were certainly outstanding.

The reason she didn't want to acknowledge Xiao Nan as her mother was that she thought that if she became his daughter, she would marry out of the country, and who in the Dragon Kingdom would have a higher status or more wealth than the War King's family?

So she doesn't acknowledge it, and she's thinking about marrying the War King in the future. She never had that thought before because she was ugly.

Ever since Xiao Nan cured her face and broadened her horizons, helping her understand the power of the Zhan Wang family, she looked down on other families even more.

Her ambition was to stay in the Xiao family for the rest of her life, enjoying supreme power and wealth. Even if Xiao Nan made her a maid, her ambition would not change.

Since Ningxia and the others left and haven't returned, she's been thinking about leaving the Xiao family.

Fortunately, she had saved up her money during her travels and after coming to the Xiao family, which gave her the confidence to leave.

She firmly believed that as long as she had physical intimacy with either Ningxia or Qiuli, the Xiao family would have no choice but to marry her.

In the future, she will be the young mistress of the Zhan Wang family.

Since her father-in-law is the current ruler of the Dragon Kingdom, she is always in the limelight wherever she goes, and who would dare not to curry favor with her?

But just as she was lost in her fantasies, her right cheek began to itch.

She instinctively scratched her face, but the more she scratched, the itchier it became. So she told the horse to stop. She looked at her hand that was scratching her face and saw that her fingernails were full of blood. She screamed in fright and immediately took out a bronze mirror from the bag on the horse's back. After seeing that her right cheek was covered in blood, she threw the mirror away.

Despite the intense itching on her face, she hurried on her horse to the small town ahead, where she went to a clinic to relieve the itching and get her bandaged.

And she earnestly asked the doctor, "Will my face be scarred?"

"That's hard to say; it depends on how well the scratches have healed."

Poppy clenched her fists tightly. She had only been learning to read and write and martial arts from her two martial uncles for two or three years, and then she could no longer keep up with them. Now, she only dared to come out alone because she had some basic skills.

If her face were damaged, she wouldn't even be able to enter the palace; she dared not think about her past life.

Those days were like hell.

She absolutely did not want to live that kind of life. Poppy gritted her teeth and decided to persevere and continue her journey to the capital.

Unexpectedly, the itching on her face made her want to use a knife to cut off a piece of flesh from her face.

Moreover, she felt that her right cheek seemed a little bigger, and she silently prayed that it was because of the bandage.

So she had no choice but to stay at the town's clinic.

She wanted to wait until her face was healed before continuing her journey, but for several days in a row, the excruciating itching wouldn't stop. She hadn't had a single good night's sleep, and every time she went to the clinic to change her dressing, her eyes were covered in dark circles.

Every time the dressing was changed, the doctor felt something was strange, as the man's right cheek seemed to be getting bigger and bigger than his left cheek.

Perhaps the swelling was due to the scratch. At the time, the doctor was just puzzled but didn't pay much attention to it.

But Poppy clearly felt something was different. It had been itchy for several days, but she hadn't scratched it. Logically speaking, it should have scabbed over and healed almost completely, so swelling was impossible.

There's only one possibility: the tumor on her face has recurred.

This realization terrified Poppy, leaving her at a loss. She knew that only the Madam could save her; without the Madam, she might return to her former self.

But, but she ran away without leaving a letter. If she goes back, I'm afraid the madam might not forgive her.

But without his wife, if her illness were to relapse, her life would be over.

If only she had recognized the lady as her mother, wouldn't it have been better to have obediently enjoyed the wealth of the Xiao family? She regretted it so much.

She didn't believe her face would relapse, so she wasn't in a hurry to go to the capital and settled down in the small town.

Every morning when she gets up, she looks at her face in the mirror, but every time she does, she finds that her face seems to have gotten bigger, and the veins that were previously invisible seem to be faintly visible again.

This discovery terrified her so much that she collapsed to the ground.

So she spurred her horse and turned back towards Xiaozhuang, hoping the lady would save her again.

Without morals, anything is possible.

When she arrived at the gate of Xiaozhuang, she was met by the steward and workers. They snatched her horse, which belonged to the estate.

He then threw everything off the horse to her and said coldly.

"The madam has ordered that once you leave, you should not return. From now on, whether you live or die is no longer related to the Xiao family. If you go to the capital to find the three young masters and two young ladies, then there is no need for you to remain in this world."

Upon hearing this, Poppy fainted.

When she woke up, it was already night. She was surrounded by medicinal herb fields, and no one took her things, as they all thought they were dirty.

Poppy gave a bitter smile, picked up her things, tied them to her body, and then gritted her teeth.

Anyway, there's no point in living like this. Since the lady doesn't want me to go looking for them, I'll go anyway. Even if I can't marry them, I can still get their sympathy thanks to the kindness of the Xiao family's children.

The mountains are high and the roads are long. No matter how capable Xiao Nan is, she can't reach that far. She doesn't believe that her reach can extend that far.
