Chapter 153 Furious
Xie Fei was very calm. "If an enemy comes, we will fight him. If a flood comes, we will block it with earth. If she wants to regard me as her mortal enemy, can I dig out her eyes?"

At the corner of the street, Ban Sihui got into the sedan chair angrily.

The maid Lianyi asked beside the sedan chair: "Madam, is the owner of that shop really Xie from the fourth house?"

Ban Sihui was almost crying with anger, gritting her teeth and saying, "That bitch! She bullied my family and even talked nonsense in front of my mother-in-law! My mother-in-law is such a fool that she actually believed her nonsense!"

Her heart almost bled when she thought about how her family members resented her after their shop and land were taken away.

My mother said that from then on, her father and brothers could no longer make friends with the powerful and wealthy, her sisters would be humiliated at their in-laws’ homes, and her younger brothers and sisters would have no source of income.

Her mother asked her, how could she survive when she was living a luxurious life in her husband's family and considering the miserable conditions in her own family?

In the past two days, Ban Sihui went back to her parents' home again and again, but the door was closed tightly and no one wanted to see her.

All these things made Ban Sihui feel extremely uncomfortable.

And all of this was caused by Xie Fei!
Ban Sihui was furious and said to Lianyi, "Go to room four!"

Lian Yi understood, "You want to go to the fourth room and ask Madam Ji to teach this bitch a lesson, right?"

Ban Sihui sneered, "She flatters my mother-in-law, I can't touch her. But don't forget that there are many people in the fourth room who hate her!"

As soon as he entered the fourth room, Su Lu told him that the old lady had gone to the Buddhist temple.

Ban Sihui asked, "What a coincidence? When I arrived, Fourth Aunt wasn't here?"

Su Lu said calmly, "Our old lady is devoted to worshipping Buddha, and the housekeeping in the mansion is taken care of by the eldest lady."

Ban Sihui said impatiently: "Then I will go see your lady!"

When they arrived at Qiongyu Garden, Xiao Shirong was also feeling annoyed.

In the past, she could leave all the housework to other housekeepers, but now it is no longer possible.

The old lady asked her to do it herself and also sent Su Lu to "supervise".

If she wants to be lazy, that's fine. Then they will deduct her monthly salary, her food, and even kick out the opera troupe she supports.

She couldn't bear the dull life, so she could only take on the responsibilities of a mistress angrily. She was busy dealing with household affairs all day long and had no time to listen to music or watch plays.

She was already upset, and when the servant came to report that Mrs. Ban was coming to visit, she felt even more upset.

"What is this idiot doing here?"

The servant naturally had no idea and just lowered his head waiting for instructions.

After thinking for a while, Xiao Shirong said, "Tell her to wait in the flower hall."

After an incense stick of time, the two of them drank tea together in the flower hall.

Ban Sihui never knew how to conceal her purpose, and she was impatient, so she stated her intention directly.

"This concubine of yours is really a powerful person. She flatters my mother-in-law and makes my family run around in circles. In time, I'm afraid the entire mansion will be under her control!"

Xiao Shirong came here to slack off, so she said lazily, "What are you talking about? She is from our fourth room, how can she come to your first room to stir up trouble?"

"Why not?" Ban Sihui was angry and her tone was even a little bad. She said sourly, "You said she is average looking, arrogant, and of humble origin. How come she is so popular with my mother-in-law?"

Xiao Shirong didn't respond and just focused on playing with her nails.

She hadn't had time to sit down and have her nails painted properly for a while, so her nails weren't as pretty as before. Seeing that she didn't say anything, Ban Sihui said earnestly, "Sister Rong, you and I are both the principal wife, and you know how uncomfortable it is to be dominated by a mere concubine. While the Xie family's slave girl is still out of favor, you should teach her a lesson!"

How come Xiao Shirong didn't teach him a lesson?
But Xie Fei was like a slippery loach in the fields. No matter how many faults people found against her, or even what means of framing she used, she could always escape danger.

Xiao Shirong said, "Madam Ban, Xie is only a concubine after all, and a plain-looking concubine who is not favored by the master. I, Xiao Shirong, am a noble lady from an aristocratic family. How can I be on the same level as her?"

Hearing Xiao Shirong's tone of not caring about the matter, Ban Sihui said anxiously: "But I heard that she gave you a hard time in the fourth room. She..."

"She is just a concubine. When has she ever shown me her displeasure?" Xiao Shirong said coldly, "I don't know what rumors you believed, but you should know that the entire inner courtyard of the Fourth House is firmly under my control. Even Xie Shi has no right to be above me!"

After saying that, Xiao Shirong turned away, leaving Ban Sihui standing there dumbfounded.

Why, for no reason, did you make people angry again?

Outside the hall, Su Lu came up and asked Xiao Shirong, "I wonder what Madam Ban said to make you so angry?"

Xiao Shirong said coldly: "A fool is instigating me to fight against Xie."

Of course we have to fight.

But he was definitely not instigated by others to charge into battle like a brainless idiot and become someone else's dog.

The corners of her mouth curved up, and she muttered to herself, "I don't know how the two of them became sworn enemies, but this time, it's going to be fun to watch."

Su Lu followed Xiao Shirong with lowered head and submissive look, without saying a word.

After coming out of Pei's house, Ban Sihui was almost furious.

"Bitch! All of them are bitches! So what if you are a noble lady from a rich family? You are still a piece of trash who can't even give birth to a son!"

As they were still at the gate of the fourth room, Lianyi whispered, "Madam, please keep your voice down so no one can hear you."

Ban Sihui turned her head and glared at the plaque, "Am I still afraid? When I become a marquise, won't these families bow down to me?"

Lianyi was afraid of being heard, so she coaxed Ban Sihui into the sedan chair and left.

The more Ban Sihui thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt. She always felt as if everyone in the world was against her, and nothing she did went well.

Suddenly, she had an idea, lifted the curtain and asked Lianyi.

"Isn't the second son of the Qishan Palace going to remarry? Or is he going to marry his favorite concubine?"

Lian Yi said, "This second young master's favorite concubine is said to be a courtesan redeemed from the red-light district. Even being a concubine is against the law. If he dares to make her his legal wife, does he think that no one in the Qishan Palace will impeach him?"

In Dajing, officials were not allowed to enter and leave brothels at will. Even if they went there, they could only summon official prostitutes to accompany them.

And this "accompanying" only means enjoying singing and dancing, and talking about poetry, it does not mean doing anything lewd.

Although he could do anything as long as he was not caught in private, if he dared to take a government prostitute as his principal wife, not only the Second Young Master, but even the entire Qishan Palace would be punished after being impeached.

Ban Sihui asked again: "Then, Second Young Master, do you have a favorite candidate?"

Lian Yi was puzzled. "Madam, are you going to be a matchmaker for the Second Young Master?"

Ban Sihui raised her eyebrows and said proudly, "The Xie family is so presumptuous, isn't it just relying on her sister's beauty, thinking that one day she can marry my husband?"
