Chapter 884: Chapter 884 Heart Stuffed

Because of this incident, the Old Madam was quite angry. No sooner had she returned to the General’s Mansion than such a frustrating event occurred.

Therefore, she decided to keep out of sight and out of mind, spending all day in the Buddhist hall praying and meditating, seldom dealing with the affairs of the mansion.

Thus, the control of the finances of the General’s Mansion still fell on Xuexue.

The situation that Situtu Qinger and her sisters had hoped for did not materialize. They could only secretly resent the injustice of fate, bemoaning their own bad luck for having offended the Old Madam on her very first day back at the mansion.

Moreover, with the recent scandal unfolding, rumors were flying all over the Capital, and they were too preoccupied to deal with Xuexue.

Qingyuo Pavilion

Zi Xia was standing guard in front of Xuexue’s room door. At this Shichen Chinese Time every day, the young miss would take her afternoon nap.

Xuexue had initially told her to go back to her room to rest, but Zi Xia, worried, insisted on standing by the door in case the young miss needed something midway.

Over time, seeing how determined Zi Xia was, Xuexue let her be, but she reiterated that without her permission, no one should barge into the room.

The matter of the space was too bizarre; obviously, it was better known by fewer people.

Of course, this was not because Xuexue didn’t trust Zi Xia.

In her previous life, Zi Xia had even sacrificed her life for her. Xuexue trusted her completely; her strict rule was for Zi Xia’s own safety.

With the young miss’s orders, Zi Xia naturally did not dare disobey, obediently standing at the door, not daring to take even half a step inside.

Inside the room.

A faint scent of sandalwood filled the room. The sunlight filtered through the latticework of the carved window, casting speckled shadows. In one corner of the room, there stood a soft wooden bed adorned with exquisite carvings, quite beautiful. The bed was covered with a neatly folded brocade quilt. However, the light yellow canopy was now drawn, concealing whatever lay within the bed.

Standing by the bed, one could not tell if there was anyone inside.

By the bed, a bronze mirror rested on a wooden dressing table, the whole room exuding an air of freshness and leisure.

Each day at this Shichen Chinese Time, although Xuexue appeared to be returning to her room for a nap, she actually did so to facilitate entering her training space.

At this moment, she was just resting on a floral bed in the space after finishing her martial training.

Xiao Taohong floated in mid-air like a specter, enthusiastically boasting about her own exploits.

"Master, let me tell you! That day at the doorway, the fight between Situtu Qinger and Situ Yu was all thanks to me."

Ever since Xuexue got to know Xiao Taohong, she realized this little ghost was quite the chatterbox, especially enjoying others’ praises.

"Really? Then tell me, what was the situation then? Why did they suddenly start fighting?" Xuexue was also curious; although the sisters were not on good terms, it was unlikely for them to physically fight.

Xiao Taohong proudly said, "Master, you just don’t know. For us ghosts, making people fight is quite easy. Just keep whispering a phrase in their ear, and naturally, they will flare up in anger. See, just a spark of anger can lead to a fight, and in serious cases, even drawing knives on each other."

Xuexue clicked her tongue; being a ghost seemed to have its perks.

"Great, whenever you’re free, make them fight more. That way, they won’t have the time to bother us – how wonderful!"

"Are you sure?"

"Of course, I’m sure! Why wouldn’t I be for something that harms others but benefits us?"

"Oh yes, master, if you hate Situtu Qinger so much, why did you give Silver to her to buy clothes?"

"That was the Old Madam’s command. Your master is not foolish; of course, I had to comply." After her reincarnation, easing the tension between her and the Old Madam had not been easy. In her past life, the Old Madam had given her quite some trouble. In this life, Xuexue was not foolish; it was better to avoid trouble when possible, not because she feared her, but to save herself from many hassles.
