Time passes day by day.

The second lady was so angry that she became a little bad. Xue Mei heard that she punished the maid very harshly.

Perhaps the second lady was staring at Xue Mei all day long, but Xue Mei was not very interested in her.

She was changing into her own yard to a new summer dress.

"The material is good." Xue Mei stroked the water-pink embroidered butterfly and sighed.

This kind of clothes is similar to the trousers of the Han Dynasty.

The material in Xue Mei’s room is thin, cool and smooth, so it should be very comfortable to make summer clothes.

She knew that the weaving in this era was not as developed as Qingming. It was necessary to make such a thing, and it required craftsmanship and excellent materials, and this material should be particularly expensive.

"Yes, it's all the materials from Jinxiufang." Dai's mother smiled, "The female family members of the high-ranking families of Kyoto have to wear Jinxiufang. One year, our ladies' clothing was not made of Jinxiufang, so the third lady was scolded by the old lady..."

Having said this, she stopped talking.

Xue Mei stroked the material and remembered Aunt San.

There is no doubt that Aunt Third doesn’t like Xue Mei. However, Xue Mei couldn’t help but feel pity for her.

Xue Mei has not been influenced by her ancient status since childhood, so she is somewhat unable to understand why the third wife is so humble.

The third lady used the money to support the entire Marquis' Mansion, and she should be her father.

The father who paid the money is a righteous father. He wears whatever he wants to wear, and it is the old woman who scolds her?

However, the third lady is from this era.

There is no imperial examination system yet, and officials are elected by the gentry. Merchants are absolutely not qualified to be elected. Without the protection of officials, the richer they are, the more dangerous they are.

The third wife's sisters all married into different high families - of course, those who were willing to marry merchant women were all down-and-out families.

Even so, they earned their family a guarantee, and local officials did not dare to point fingers at the Marquis's in-laws.

Therefore, when the third wife spent money, she had to pay for her smile, curry favor with her mother-in-law, and provide for the expenses of the whole family.

"Aunt San is such a good person." Xue Mei smiled. If it were her, she would probably leave immediately.

Do Aunt San feel frustrated when it's late at night?

"Oh." Dai's mother actually felt very sympathetic to the third lady.

Xue Mei discovered that everyone around her, whether it was her mother or her maid, was kind.

Maybe the unkind maid has already planned to leave her and go to other places, right? Only those who are truly kind will stay with this prospectless young lady.

"I don't like this color." Xue Mei looked at the dark gourd pink clothes, put them aside, picked up the light purple one, and said, "I like this color."

The cat lay on the windowsill next to him, watching them pack up the newly sent summer clothes.

When Xue Mei said she "liked", Xiao Jingcheng stood up and looked here.

He saw the light purple.

"Miss, this looks good?" asked the maid.

Xue Mei: "Well, this one looks better."

"Miss, you're confused. This one is not good-looking. The one with the water pink looks good." Hongluan said with a smile.

Xue Mei was not bothered.

Xiao Jingcheng glanced at Hongluan coldly, thinking that the maid was vulgar and only knew what "water pink" was, but it was the light purple color that Xue Mei looked at. Xiao Jingcheng felt very elegant.

She feels good, so everything is good.

He meowed.

Xue Mei immediately turned around, saw him, and smiled at him: "Does A Chou like this?"

Xiao Jingcheng meowed again.

Mama Dai and others all laughed.

Xiuzhu said: "A Chou has been following the eldest lady for a long time and is not very much like a cat, but like a child."

Xiao Jingcheng was shocked, worried that his excessive behavior would scare Xue Mei.

Xue Mei was not afraid at all. She smiled and said, "A smart cat has the IQ of a three or four-year-old child. Think about it, when a child is three or four years old, he can already understand a lot."

Everyone asked whether it was true or not, and they all sighed.

Xiao Jingcheng felt that in Xue Mei's eyes, he was good at everything.

His cat's beard was slightly raised, unable to hide his compliment.

He is lucky this year. If he can return to his own body smoothly, his lifelong affairs may be settled.

Empress Dowager Qi always urged him to get married and have a child. Xiao Jingcheng used to be annoyed by her words because he really couldn't find a suitable person.

His mother said that a very good woman was probably very resistant to her when he saw her and did not like her.

When he saw Xue Mei at first sight, he didn't hate her. Maybe because she had a beauty mole on her forehead, she was indeed like a virgin in front of Guanyin, which made people feel good.

"A Chou, I'll change this dress for you to see." Xue Mei's voice made Xiao Jingcheng come back to his senses.

Xiao Jingcheng meowed again, replacing his nod.

The maids were already numb about Xue Mei raising a cat son and were too lazy to persuade him.

Xue Mei quickly changed her clothes and came out.

In a light purple dress, she was like a blooming perilla flower, light and charming; the red mole on the eyebrows seemed to be a little eye-catching brush, which set off her eyebrows and eyes.

Her appearance was obviously very plain, but she immediately became more beautiful because of this dress.

Xiao Jingcheng looked at her and thought to himself: "It looks good."

Mother Dai and the maids also lit up their eyes.

Unexpectedly, the young lady is more outstanding in wearing this color than in the water pink.

Because the eldest lady's skin is white, and the purple clothes contrast with her snow-colored skin, her facial features are brighter.

"Miss, you can wear this outfit at the Wen family's banquet." said Dai's mother.

Xue Mei nodded.

She wants to go to Wen's house to check it out.

If nothing unexpected happens, the wedding day of her and Wen Zhao, the eldest son of the Wen family, will be arranged next spring.

There are not many days left.

Xue Mei needs to consider how to withdraw from the bride. First of all, withdrawing from the bride requires going to the government to remove the documents. In this era, a woman is not qualified to withdraw from the bride. The government does not recognize the documents she signed by herself.

It’s ridiculous. Women are not qualified to participate in their marriage documents, whether they are marriage contracts at the beginning or resignation.

She is an accessory, and her father and brother are her master.

Then, the betrothal gift given by the Wen family needs to be returned.

Her father, Yongning Hou, would not help her to withdraw from the marriage, nor would the Xue family spit out the property they received.

However, Xue Mei still has a solution.

When she retires from the marriage, she can bypass Yongning Hou and ask her elder brother Xue Chi to come forward; when she returns the betrothal gift, she spends money to eliminate disasters by herself.

Therefore, she had to find a way to go to the Wen family and test how much money the Wen family had already given to the Xue family.

"Just wear this outfit." Xue Mei smiled.

Hongluan thought of something and said to Xue Mei a little excitedly: "Miss, Miss Second Miss must be shameless this time."

In this way, no one will steal the limelight from her lady.

If the second lady had not compared it next to her, their lady would not have been ugly or very dull.

But sometimes the second lady deliberately misleads everyone and makes the eldest lady stumbling, making the eldest lady look very embarrassed.

Xue Mei smiled: "She definitely won't go."

"Miss, you can still see your son-in-law." Hongluan said again, "Miss, our son-in-law must also like your clothes."

Xue Mei pursed her lips and smiled again.

Her smile was actually a bit bad, and it fell into Xiao Jingcheng's eyes, but it seemed like she was shy.

Xiao Jingcheng was full of plans to marry her as his concubine, but it was not until this moment that he remembered that he had ignored that she still had a marriage contract.

What should he do if he can't go back to his body?

"If you marry, you will marry. As long as I can regain my original body in one day in my life, you will always be mine." Xiao Jingcheng thought.

After all, if you like me so much, I will never let you miss it with affection.
