Cultivation Quick Transmigration: The Believer Girl is Lacking Money and Morals

At dinner time, an eight-immortal table was set up in the small hall of Dongwu Garden. The dishes were ordered from the main kitchen and were only served when the guests arrived.

Liu Chenchen and Xiao Shiyan sat in the hall chatting while waiting for Xiao Shiyan's younger brother and sister.

The first to arrive was the second young master, Xiao Shiwen. He was seventeen years old this year, three years younger than Xiao Shiyan, and was about to reach the age of marriage.

She looks about 70% like Xiao Shiyan, but her eyes and brows are less cold and stern, and more elegant.

"Big brother, sister-in-law," Xiao Shiwen greeted respectfully.

When Xiao Shiyan saw his younger brother arrive, he stood up and gestured to Liu Chenchen to go to the dining room together.

At the dining table, Liu Chenchen and Xiao Shiyan sat in the main seats, while Xiao Shiwen sat at the lower seat, talking to his older brother while secretly glancing at Liu Chenchen.

Ever since he witnessed the extraordinary nature of this woman that morning, he had been curious, and now that he had seen her again, he was filled with curiosity.

After waiting a while longer, Xiao Shiyan's younger sister, Xiao Shiwei, the eldest daughter of the Xiao family, finally arrived. Liu Chenchen was a little impatient. She hated waiting for people the most. This was the last time. She wouldn't let him invite her again next time.

She is fifteen years old this year and is already engaged to the youngest son of the Left Censor-in-Chief. She will be able to get married when she turns seventeen. At this moment, she is wearing a light yellow dress and looks pretty, but there is a bit of arrogance in her eyes.

"Big brother." Xiao Shiwei greeted Xiao Shiyan first, then looked at Liu Chenchen, her tone somewhat perfunctory, "Sister-in-law."

Liu Chenchen saw this but remained expressionless: "Please sit down, little sister."

Xiao Shiwei sat down below Liu Chenchen, but her eyes kept glancing at Xiao Shiyan, clearly showing that she didn't like her sister-in-law very much.

Once everyone was present, the maidservants began serving the dishes.

The atmosphere at the table was somewhat tense. Xiao Shiwei kept a cold face, while Xiao Shiwen occasionally said a few words, but they were all spoken to Xiao Shiyan. As a man, he felt it was inappropriate to speak to his sister-in-law.

Liu Chenchen didn't care and continued eating and drinking as usual, completely unaffected.

She was just putting on a show for the Princess Consort Xian. She didn't even give Xiao Shiyan any face, so why would she bother with these two brats? Tch.

Halfway through the meal, Xiao Shiwei started causing trouble, asking out of the blue, "Sister-in-law, I heard you were born a concubine's daughter?"

The question was sharp, and the room fell silent immediately.

Xiao Shiwen frowned instantly, while Xiao Shiyan slammed down his chopsticks, his eyes turning cold: "Shi Wei."

Liu Chenchen laughed, put down her chopsticks, and looked at Xiao Shiwei: "What? Have you gone deaf while I've been away from home these past few days? Don't you know I'm not a concubine's daughter?"

Xiao Shiwei was surprised that Liu Chenchen was so capable. Shouldn't she be trying to curry favor with her, the legitimate daughter of the virtuous prince?

Hearing that the other person actually said she was deaf, Xiao Shiwei was immediately unhappy. Even her father and brothers had never said that to her.

She immediately put down her chopsticks, ignoring her elder brother's cold face, and raised her chin: "As expected of someone born of a concubine. I'm just curious, how did you, a concubine's daughter, manage to marry into our royal family?"

That's a bit provocative.

Just as Xiao Shiyan was about to speak, Liu Chenchen pressed his hand down and smiled slightly: "This question is of course based on ability. When my younger sister gets married in the future, she will know the methods of this concubine's daughter."

"Don't worry, I will absolutely not let your brother interfere in your family affairs. I will only let you have a good experience."

The meaning behind her words was very clear: as long as she remained the Crown Princess, she would not allow her brother to interfere in her affairs.

Xiao Shiwei's expression changed: "What do you mean?"

"The literal meaning," Liu Chenchen said calmly. "Third Sister, I am your sister-in-law, your elder. You should show me the proper etiquette when you speak to me. Otherwise, people won't just say that you, Miss Xiao, don't know manners; they'll just say that the Prince Xian's Mansion has no upbringing."

"You!" Xiao Shiwei stood up angrily.

"Sit down," Xiao Shiyan said in a deep voice.

Xiao Shiwei gritted her teeth and finally sat down, but glared fiercely at Liu Chenchen.

Liu Chenchen acted as if she hadn't seen anything and continued eating.

Xiao Shijin and Xiao Shiwen, on the other hand, were both observing Liu Chenchen's expression.

Liu Chenchen, however, showed no expression.

In her opinion, is this girl stupid? Instead of trying to build a good relationship with her brother's wife, she's deliberately trying to offend her.

If she didn't know this was ancient times, where married women relied on their natal families, she would have thought this was modern times.

The meal was eaten in an eerie atmosphere.

Xiao Shiwen also got up to say goodbye.

After they all left, Xiao Shiyan looked at Liu Chenchen: "You don't need to take my little sister's words to heart. She's been spoiled since she was a child, and she doesn't know how to speak properly."

Liu Chenchen smiled, but her words were unpleasant: "I've schemed and plotted, do you think I'd be doing this just to get married and suffer? I'm a very fair person. Instead of wasting your time on me, you should advise your sister. Of course, you can also choose to replace me; that would be faster."

Without waiting for the man's expression, she threw down her chopsticks and headed towards the bathroom: "Bai Zhi, I want to take a shower."

Xiao Shiyan watched her departing figure intently, lost in thought, before getting up to wash up.

The bathroom was filled with steam, and the fragrance of flower petals permeated the air. Liu Chenchen soaked in the bathtub, her long, black hair clinging wetly to her shoulders, and her fair skin glowing a faint pink under the hot water.

She closed her eyes, a slight smile playing on her lips. Although dinner had been somewhat unpleasant, her mood remained completely unaffected.

As I always say, stay away from idiots; sometimes idiots are the biggest disaster.

Whether Xiao Shiwei is stupid or not has nothing to do with her. She wasn't born, so if she's not raised well, she'll suffer later. Shouldn't we look for her mother?

As for whether she can be in charge of Xiao Shiyan in the future? Pshaw! If she can't be in charge of this family, then this family has no reason to exist.

Whether it's genuine or feigned, as long as you ultimately listen to her, that's fine.

As for Xiao Shiyan...

I opened my eyes and looked at the petals floating on the water.

These days, although they share a bed, Xiao Shiyan always gets into bed every night, but he always lies properly on the outside, with an arm's length between them.

If she hadn't taken the initiative to get closer to him, there probably wouldn't have been any physical contact at all.

He is clearly a normal man, yet he always manages to control himself; such self-control is truly admirable.

But Liu Chenchen didn't have the patience to wait for him.

As she stood up, water droplets slid down her delicate curves.

Qingzhu quickly stepped forward to dry her body.

He draped a moon-white silk nightgown over her, the fabric as thin as a cicada's wing, almost transparent against her skin, with only a loosely tied sash of the same color around her waist.

The neckline of the nightgown was slightly low, revealing a delicate collarbone and a hint of cleavage.

To be honest, she really liked this body. She was raised in a wealthy family and, although she wasn't favored, she had never suffered any hardship.

In addition, she drank well water every day to nourish herself, and although she hadn't reached the point of being as delicate as a baby, she still looked quite lovely.

"Where is the young master?" Liu Chenchen asked, her voice languid after a bath.

"The young master has finished washing up and is waiting for you in the room," Qingzhu replied, bowing her head.

Liu Chenchen chuckled softly and gathered her half-wet long hair.

She pulled her nightgown tighter and stepped out of the bathhouse.
