Peng-
The bronze mirror on the table was overturned, and the loud voice brought Qiao Qingwan back to reality-she had been reborn, and those things had not happened yet.
She calmed down and gritted her teeth secretly.
It was God who gave her the chance to live again. In this life, she would definitely take revenge!
Just as Qiao Qingwan was lost in thought, the maid, Su Yi, suddenly reported, "First Miss, I just saw Second Miss coming here."
The Second Miss they mentioned was none other than Qiao Siqi.
Before Qiao Qingwan could find her, she had come to her door, which saved her a lot of effort.
"I haven't washed yet. You block her outside the door and let her in when she's ready."
"Yes!"
She quickly went to the door to wait.
Qiao Qingwan lifted up the bronze mirror and saw the scar on her right face. It was the same scar that she had gone out with Qiao Siqi a year ago. For some reason, she fainted and the carriage flipped over inexplicably.
When she woke up again, there was a deep wound on her face.
Thinking about it carefully, it was not an accident that her face was disfigured. It was very likely that Qiao Siqi and her daughter had tried their best to plot against her.
Fortunately, she had learned medical skills, so it was not a problem to remove a scar.
In her previous life, because of this scar, she became extremely self-abased. She did not even dare to go out and stayed in the house all day, not even daring to see her family members.
However, Qiao Siqi took advantage of this time to dress up every day. She said that she was the daughter of the minister's mansion, and she even treated her as the daughter of the principal wife!
She was also famous for being one of the four talented women in the Capital City.
But in this life, as long as she was there, Qiao Siqi would never be able to stand out.
By the time she finished packing, Qiao Siqi had been waiting outside the door for a long time. She pushed the maids away and entered the room.
"Sister, are you awake?"
When Nan Lian saw that it was Second Miss coming, she immediately greeted her warmly. "Second Miss, you came at the right time. Please come in."
With a sweet smile on her face, Qiao Siqi asked with concern, "Sister, are you feeling better today?"
Seeing her enemy again, Qiao Qingwan was filled with hatred.
She had to say that Qiao Siqin was really good at acting. She always pretended to be harmless and cared about her, as if they had a good relationship.
In her last life, Qiao Qingwan had been deceived by this look. She regarded this woman as the most trusted person and was willing to give her anything.
Seeing that she didn't look well, Qiao Siqi immediately explained with a smile, "You blame me for not coming these days, didn't you? I went out to burn incense and pray for you. As soon as I came back, I heard that you were ill. I came to see you. Sister, don't be angry with me!"
She shook Qiao Qingwan's sleeves with a weak look.
Qiao Qingwan suppressed the hatred in her heart and pulled away from her calmly. "I'm naturally happy that you came to see me."
"Sister." Qiao Siqi said delicately, "In two days, it will be the annual flower-moon banquet. I really don't have suitable jewelry clothes. I saw that you wore a pleated skirt and a beautiful Mo Yan's white hair. Sister, can you lend it to me?"
Every time this concubine's younger sister came, she would open her mouth and take some good things from her.
In her past life, she had thought that since she did not want to go out, there was no use for her to waste these precious accessories. She might as well give them to her concubine's younger sister.
However, Qiao Siqi was thick-skinned. She had never returned the things she borrowed!
This set of Moyan's white hair and pleated skirt was a gift for her grandmother. It was priceless!
Qiao Qingwan refused him directly. "I'm afraid I can't."
The smile on Qiao Siqi's face froze when she was rejected, and she immediately returned to normal. She begged again, "Sister, I'll return it immediately after I'm done. It won't be damaged."
Qiao Qingwan was still determined. "This set of hair and skirt was given to me by my grandmother. It's priceless. It was passed down from the ancestors of the Xiao family. My mother also attached great importance to it."
Qiao Siqi wanted such a valuable thing even more.
After all, Duke Xiao was a famous founding father. The things passed down from his family must be extremely noble.
"By right, Duke Xiao is also my grandfather. Can't I borrow him?"
Qiao Qingwan said with a look of embarrassment, "Since you insist on using it, you have to write a loan note first. After the Flower Moon Banquet, you can return everything back."
This question stunned Qiao Siqi. She had taken Qiao Qingwan's jewelry clothes, but she had never written an IOU!
Qiao Qingwan said lightly, "Because this set of noodles is very expensive. If my mother asks about it, I can't explain it to her."
"Okay, I'm writing a loan receipt for my sister." Qiao Siqi gritted her teeth and nodded.
Soon, she wrote down the IOU and handed it over.
Qiao Qingwan took the note, glanced at it, and ordered the plain clothes beside her, "Go and get the twelve sets of ink white jade and the pleated skirt."
Su Yi wanted to say something but stopped on second thought. "Miss, you..."
Qiao Siqi cursed with dissatisfaction, "My sister has agreed. Why are you wasting your time?"
Since the First Miss had made up her mind, she had no choice but to get something.
When she left, Qiao Siqii complained, "This maid is too humble. She was the one who stopped me at the door just now, wasn't she? If this were the maid in my room, I would definitely give her a few slaps!"
Qiao Qingwan kept the loan receipt silently, pretending that she didn't hear her.
The head and skirt were soon brought over. Qiao Siqi opened the box immediately and sighed, "It's worthy of being the heirloom of the Xiao family. It's so beautiful!"
Su Yi and Green Bamboo were very helpless on the side.
Qiao Siqi took the things and said, "Sister, I'll go back first. I'll come back to see you in a few days."
After that, she went out with her maids and old maids.
Su Yi persuaded, "Miss, don't be so generous every time. You can't bear to use that face and skirt. How can you give it to her?"
Qiao Qingwan explained calmly, "It's okay. I know what to do."
Qiao Siqi was just a concubine's daughter, so she couldn't afford such a valuable thing!
At this time, Nan Lian stepped forward and said, "Oh, you should be more open. Second Miss is the master's younger sister. What's wrong with sending a set of head accessories and a skirt?"
Qiao Qingwan glanced at Nan Lian. In her last life, she had been blinded by the pain.
It turned out that Nan Lian, who had betrayed her master, had already been there from the very beginning.
Previously, Nan Lian was eloquent and efficient. Qiao Qingwan thought highly of her and kept her by her side all the time.
I didn't expect that...
Seeing that no one answered, Nan Lian was embarrassed. "Miss, do you think I was wrong?"
Qiao Qingwan said perfunctorily, "You're right."
Now was not the time to be hostile. She wanted to keep this chess piece and fight with Qiao Siqi slowly!
There's a long way to go. Qiao Siqi, just wait and see!
