"You want me to seduce the Crown Prince? Why are you crying now that I've entered the pala

Chapter 30 So what if you can cry?
Qin Su was even more bewildered than her, and said, "Mother's intention in having the concubine move out is not to find a doctor to treat her and arrange for maids to serve her, is it? Have I misunderstood?"

She looked at Zhang with clear, innocent eyes, which made Zhang choke with anger, her well-maintained face contorting slightly.

That's definitely not what she meant!
Xu, that lowly maid born into slavery, has a lowly fate by nature. Why should she be served by others?
She finally managed to suppress her into the mud; only a madwoman would release her.

What angered her even more was Qin Su's lack of cooperation. The fact that someone who was usually weak and easily bullied suddenly showed a rebellious spirit only made her want to crush her even more.

“You’re right, that’s exactly what I meant. I’ll make arrangements for Aunt Xu…”

Zhang suppressed her anger as she spoke, but her gaze towards Qin Su turned icy and sharp: "But your disobedience to your elders is disrespectful..."

Before she could finish speaking, a clear female voice interrupted her: "Mother, please calm down and don't blame your sister."

As soon as these words were spoken, a young woman in elegant clothes walked in through the door.

The anger on Zhang's face disappeared, and the expressions of the others also changed.

Qin Su also turned around, wanting to see what her destined "mortal enemy" looked like—

Then I saw a beautiful young girl surrounded by maids and servants. Her eyes were like bright stars. She wore a hairpin with eight treasures and pearls in her hair, and red agate with gold leaves hanging from her ears. She walked with an elegant and graceful demeanor.

This is Qin Qionghua, the original owner's elder sister, the white moonlight in the male protagonist's heart in the original novel. He was infatuated with her for many years, but he only longed for a high position in the palace.

Finally, she entered the palace as she wished, but this also created a permanent rift between the original owner and the male protagonist, making it impossible for them to go back to the way things were before.

Unlike Qin Su, who possesses a pure and gentle beauty like a lotus emerging from clear water, Qin Qionghua resembles Zhang Shi, exuding elegance and grace, winning over audiences with her refined demeanor.

"I haven't seen my younger sister in a long time. She doesn't even come to visit her older sister when she has time."

As soon as Qin Qionghua entered the room, she personally reached out to help Qin Su up, her tone natural and gentle, like a caring older sister.

Qin Su resisted the urge to push the person away and, mimicking the original owner's manner, called out softly, "Second Sister."

Her elder sister, You Rong, had already married, so at this time, Qin Qionghua was the only legitimate daughter in the Prime Minister's mansion.

“I heard what she just said. Sangsang, please don’t misunderstand Mother. She’s strict with her children because she cares about us.”

As Qin Qionghua spoke, seemingly anticipating Qin Su's comment that "there isn't enough time," she preemptively raised her hand:
“I know you’re very busy, so I brought a pattern for embroidery that I drew myself. It’s nothing special, but I’ll give it to you so you can use it to embroider. I believe it will save you some time.”

The maid in the light red dress beside Qin Qionghua said with a smile, "Miss is truly beautiful inside and out, and always considers others."

The old woman who had just urged Qin Su said again, "Third Miss, you should quickly thank the Second Miss."

Qin Qionghua's expression became even more gentle and generous: "There's no need to thank me. We sisters are one, and we should support and help each other. I believe that if I ever need your help in the future, Sister Sangsang will definitely not abandon me, right?"

The gentle words concealed many hidden meanings, which Qin Su, who was familiar with the original work, suddenly understood:
So they were setting a trap all along! No wonder the unsuspecting "Qin Sangsang" ended up in such a miserable state.

Qin Wanrou secretly rolled her eyes from the side:
That sounds nice, but you could easily save Qin Sangsang from this trouble with just a word, or at the very least, help her find a maid or servant to take care of her daily needs.

They even sent flowers...tch~
Qin Qionghua maintained her gentle older sister persona, waiting with tender eyes for Qin Sangsang to accept the gift with gratitude.

But to everyone's surprise, the girl was being a bit too stubborn today. She had been holding the embroidery pattern in her hands for half a day, but she didn't "knowingly" take it.

Everyone knows this is her embroidery pattern. No matter how good Qin Sangsang's finished product is in the future, these are all hers.

Finally, Zhang felt sorry for her daughter and angrily scolded her, "You ungrateful thing!" She then said to Qin Qionghua, "You've been so kind to her and provided her with conveniences, yet she's so ungrateful and doesn't know any manners. Let the nanny give her a good talking-to about respecting elders and superiors!"

As soon as she finished speaking, a rough-looking old woman came in to drag Qin Su away.

Sensing her stepmother's undisguised ferocity, Qin Sang finally "wisely" lowered her head: "Thank you, elder sister."

She reached out and took the pattern drawing from Qin Qionghua.

Qin Qionghua smiled, her eyes shining even brighter as she looked at Qin Su: "Sister Sangsang, you're still so polite. I've already said we're sisters, and I'm the elder sister, so isn't it only right that I take care of you?"
-
"You idiot, you dare to take her embroidery patterns? Just wait to be taken advantage of!"

As soon as they stepped out of the main courtyard, Qin Wanrou couldn't wait to mock and ridicule Qin Su: "So what if you're good at embroidery? You're still living worse than a servant!"

Qin Wanrou now understood that the "protagonist" of the day was actually the girl in front of her, and that the so-called "embroidery that is inspected every three days" would probably never return to Qin Sangsang's hands.

Her eyes lit up: "Since you're just doing someone else's work anyway, why don't you do mine too? Consider it compensation for pushing me into this mess."

The abacus beads were practically bouncing off Qin Su's face.

However, her smugness only earned her two words from Qin Su: "Dream on!"

Qin Wanrou was furious. She had originally wanted to "leak" some information to Qin Sangsang, but now she didn't want to say a word: "Hmph, you idiot! Go make your handkerchiefs and sachets. If you don't finish them, see how your stepmother deals with you!"

After saying that, Qin Wanrou stormed off.

She hated her stepmother, her step-sister, and everything about the main courtyard.

What I hate most is why my concubine isn't the legal wife, and why I'm not the legitimate daughter?!
Qin Su calmly returned to the side courtyard, but her face fell as soon as she entered. Standing under the big tree, she couldn't help but sob again.

The rustling sounds of crying attracted the attention of Liuying, who was sleeping in the tree.

He thought it was a mouse that had gotten into the neighbor's house. When he looked down, he saw the little girl burying her head in her arms and sobbing softly. Her thin figure looked even more pitiful.

It makes one wonder what kind of humiliation she had suffered outside that made her cry so bitterly as soon as she got home.

Liu Ying had almost lost count of how many times she had caught Qin Su secretly shedding tears behind someone's back.

He couldn't help but sigh: This girl is so pitiful.
-
Qin Su cried for a while before wiping away her tears and going into the kitchen to cook.

Her eyes were red and swollen, and she looked so pitiful that even the system wanted to comfort her.
[Host, are you alright? If you really don't want to do it yourself, just buy it from the shop. They have all kinds of embroidery, so you don't have to make it yourself. That's how it is in the original story; all those vicious female supporting characters will bully the female lead.]

Qin Su was already washing her face when she heard this, and said, "Yes, that's how it is in the original story. The villain has many descendants and dies a natural death, while the original owner of this body is short-lived and dies a tragic death."

System: Why does the host's tone sound a bit off?

Not sure, check again.

Qin Su lowered her eyes to look at her delicate, fair fingers in the copper basin, and with a gentle movement, stirred up ripples in the water:
She's "crying" so badly, what kind of surprise could there be?

Is anyone watching? Please vote! It's so unpopular!
