The peasant girl has a private space, and her husband is handsome.

When Prime Minister Feng heard that the flower shed built by the Marquis of Guiping's mansion for Miss Su was extremely luxurious, he felt quite uncomfortable.

He felt particularly distressed when he thought about the 30,000 taels of silver that Fang Cheng had swindled from him.

It was all because of Miss Su that he was swindled out of 30,000 taels by Fang Cheng.

It was because Fang Cheng knew Miss Su that he asked Vice Minister Luo to take Fang Cheng in in order to deal with her.

Fang Cheng must have been deliberately arranged by Miss Su to swindle him out of his money, but he couldn't produce any evidence, otherwise he would have gone directly to Miss Su's door to ask for the money back.

If the 30,000 taels that were swindled were used to decorate the flower shed, it would definitely be decorated to be very gorgeous and eye-catching.

Feng Xiaoshuang happily walked back to the flower shed, holding a bunch of newly picked pink flowers in her hand. Seeing her father's gloomy face, she felt quite bored.

She walked up to her mother and asked with a smile, "Mother, I saw Miss Su's clothes and jewelry from afar last time, and they were particularly beautiful. May I invite Miss Su to come and play in our flower shed?"

The Prime Minister's wife said gently, "Of course, but I heard that Miss Su hasn't arrived yet."

Feng Yuanxi sat blankly in the corner, but when his sister mentioned Miss Su, he immediately came to life and jumped up from his chair.

There was a large bouquet of flowers on the table. Feng Yuanxi picked out the reddest and most beautiful flower and held it in his hand. "I want to give flowers to Miss Su. Mother, sister, you should also give flowers to Miss Su. Miss Su will definitely become the flower goddess who receives the most flowers."

Prime Minister Feng slammed his hand on the table next to him, knocking over most of the hundreds of flowers on it.

"I object, Xiaoshuang. You mustn't invite Miss Su into our flower shed. I absolutely refuse to share a roof with that girl."

The Prime Minister's wife showed no mercy to Prime Minister Feng. "Objection overruled. Since you are unwilling to share a flower shed with Miss Su, there is no need for you to remain here. Guards, escort the Prime Minister back to his residence."

Feng Cheng was carried onto the carriage along with his chair, and he was very sad.

When he and Miss Su could no longer coexist, his family members all sided with Miss Su, and he was abandoned.

Moreover, he felt that his wife was becoming increasingly assertive, which must be due to the influence of that young girl.

We must not let that little girl continue to be so smug, or the women will turn on us.

Women should stay in the backyard to serve men, raise children, respect the elderly, and honestly be tools for procreation.

The flower shed at the Xuanyuan family's house is also beautifully constructed.

As the second-ranked of the five great families, the Xuanyuan family naturally did not want to be outdone, so they put a lot of effort into the flower shed.

It was a large and spacious octagonal flower shed, decorated with colorful silk and fresh flowers, with pearls adorning the bottom of the silk.

Copper bells hang from each of the eight corners of the flower shed. When a breeze blows, the bells make a clear and pleasant tinkling sound.

None of the concubine's daughters came; only the legitimate daughters, Xuan Yuan Yue and Xuan Yuan Jing, sat together near the door of the flower shed, chatting quietly.

Although Xuanyuan Yue was still wearing a veil, her face had completely healed.

I'm only wearing a veil because my skin is too delicate right now and I'm afraid of getting sunburned.

Their mother, Zhou, and the old lady Xuanyuan sat at the very back of the flower shed, enjoying flower tea.

Zhou whispered to Old Madam Xuanyuan, "Mother-in-law, the skin-nourishing powder that little girl gave us is truly miraculous. Now, Yue'er's face is not only better, but also whiter and more delicate than before, and she's become even more beautiful. The marriage between our Xuanyuan family and the Murong family is now secure."

It's a pity the medicine powder is all used up, otherwise Zhou herself would like to use it.

"Mother-in-law, women love beauty and are most willing to spend money on their faces. Skin care powder can definitely sell for a sky-high price. If we had been able to forcibly buy that formula back then, the Xuanyuan family would definitely have become the head of the five great families in the future."

Zhou thought about the skin-nourishing powder every day, so much so that she couldn't sleep at night, and as a result, she had several more gray hairs.

She secretly got some skin-nourishing powder and asked the doctor to analyze its ingredients, but the resulting powder was completely ineffective.

So if you want the prescription to work, you still have to get it from that girl.

If we could get our hands on that skin-nourishing formula, the skin-nourishing powder could be used to make money and also as gifts for those powerful ladies. It would be a win-win situation, and the status of the Xuanyuan family would definitely rise accordingly.

Madam Xuanyuan was a wise woman, and she stopped her, saying, "Don't say or think such things again."

She admitted that Zhou was indeed ambitious, but due to his background, his intelligence was completely lacking.

"Zhou, do you think I don't want to force you to buy that formula? At my age, I've seen more than you've walked. Remember, that young girl is not someone our Xuanyuan family can control. Don't even think about things you can't do. It's a waste of energy and you'll only offend people."

Zhou wanted to try again, "Mother-in-law, I heard that the girl comes from a rural area and was even rejected by her fiancé before. Her background is even worse than my daughter-in-law's. Why don't you reconsider?"

"Alright, Zhou, remember this: you are not allowed to discuss anything related to Miss Su again. Otherwise, my Xuanyuan family will not dare to keep you here any longer. There are countless underhanded tricks in the inner quarters. I have plenty of ways to make you die of illness or an accident."

The young girl single-handedly held off the King of Huainan's hundreds of thousands of troops, preventing them from advancing even an inch north. How dare you, Zhou family, look down on them? You are truly foolish and unaware of your own shortcomings.

With a daughter-in-law like Zhou, the future of the Xuanyuan family is truly worrying!

She has neither beauty nor brains, yet her son, the head of the family, is incredibly capable. How could he have fallen for such a good-for-nothing as Zhou?

Zhou was afraid of death and was indeed intimidated by the old lady. She turned pale with fright and dared not utter another word.

Not far from the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, the two sisters, Xuan Yuan Yue and Xuan Yuan Jing, sat together, chatting and watching the young men and women passing by outside the door.

Although many people are dressed exceptionally beautifully today, none of them are as unforgettable as Miss Su's clothes. Xuan Yuan Yue recalled the scene when she first met Miss Su.

It was so stunning and unforgettable that I can't help but marvel at it every time I think about it.

At that time, Xuanyuan Yue was contemplating suicide because of her disfigured face, but the little girl persuaded her to stop with just one sentence.

The little girl, dressed in red, stood beside the flickering candlelight, as fiery and undeniable as a flame.

For many nights, Xuanyuan Yue dreamed of Miss Su, dressed in red.

The day before yesterday, the first day of the lunar new year, I found out that Miss Su went to Baima Temple to offer incense, and that she had also gone to Baima Temple.

As she was going up the mountain, she happened to brush past Miss Su, who was coming down.

From afar, one could see Miss Su dressed in a moon-white gown, a style never seen before, which made her appear like an immortal. As she walked, the lotus flowers on her skirt appeared and disappeared, making her look exceptionally beautiful.

Therefore, in Xuanyuan Yue's eyes, Miss Su became a walking trendsetter, leading the latest fashion trends.

Xuanyuan Yue looked on expectantly, "Where is Miss Su?"

The moon-white belted long dress that Xuanyuan Yue is wearing today is modeled after the one that Miss Su wore when she offered incense on the first day of the lunar month.

The eight embroiderers in the manor stayed up for two nights in a row, but the result was still somewhat inferior to Miss Su's piece.

Therefore, Xuanyuan Yue was particularly curious to know what new style of clothes Miss Su wore on the Flower Festival today, and planned to have the sewing room in the mansion try to make a similar one.

The jewelry worn by Miss Su was also novel and beautiful in design.

Moreover, she envied Miss Su's unrestrained and flamboyant personality, and envied Miss Su's ability to show her face and do what she liked. As the legitimate daughter of the Xuanyuan family, she was just a pawn used by the Xuanyuan family for marriage alliances.

Thinking of this, Xuan Yuan Yue became even more anxious, "I wonder where Miss Su is now?"

Hearing her third sister mention Miss Su again and again, Xuanyuan Jing knew that her third sister, like her, was eager to see Miss Su.

She was a little worried that when they met again, Miss Su might forget her. She had heard that Miss Su was a very busy person who met many people every day.

Xuanyuan Jing comforted Xuanyuan Yue, saying, "Third sister, don't worry. I've asked Baizhi to inquire. Miss Su hasn't arrived at Bibo Lake yet. Once she arrives, Baizhi will come back and report immediately."

Bai Zhi, Xuan Yuan Jing's maid, was currently huddled with many others, admiring the flower shed of the Gui Ping Marquis's residence.

The shimmering silk gauze shimmered in the sunlight like a flowing galaxy—no, it was even more beautiful than the galaxy itself, for the galaxy's colors were far too monotonous, less than a fraction of the shimmering silk gauze's beauty.
