Reborn Evil Mother-in-law

   She took a deep breath. She inadvertently looked at Shen Xin Yan’s bun. A hint of surprise flashed in her eyes: “Second sister-in-law, this phoenix hairpin is quite sophisticated and beautiful. It’s the first time I’ve seen you wearing it. Looking at this craftsmanship, it looks like it came from Linglong Pavilion.”

    As soon as she finished speaking, the eyes of everyone in the room fell on Shen Xin Yan’s bun.

    Shen Xin Yan held the hairpin. Unconsciously a gentle smile appeared on her face.

    “Madam has good eyesight. This hairpin is indeed from Linglong Pavilion. Shizi Ye chose the design himself and asked the craftsman to make it. It was finished early this morning. Even I saw the finished product for the first time.” The shopkeeper Tao Shi said with a smile.

    “It turned out to be ordered by Shizi Ye. No wonder! This hairpin alone can compare all the jewellery in the whole room.” Fang Shi glanced at Yang Shi, who stared enviously at Shen Xin Yan’s hairpin. 

    Yang Shi looked down at the few hairpins that she liked, and then compared the one that Shen Xin Yan was wearing. For some reason, she originally thought they are very satisfactory pieces of jewellery, but now she thinks they are ordinary.

    “No matter whether this jewellery is precious or not, it only depends on whether it matches the person who wears it, and whether it can bring out the owner’s temperament. This hairpin of Shizi Furen is made specially by Shizi Ye by an inviting craftsman. As fine as the winding of each golden thread, it all displays the grace and elegance of Shizi Furen. So only when Shizi Furen wears it, it has the effect of complementing each other.”

    “This pair of emerald-embedded butterfly earrings selected by the third lady, the jade is transparent and moisturizing, and the gems are bright and precious, which perfectly complements the lady’s style. I have to say that my lady’s vision makes me feel ashamed.”

    “This Miss Fang is as beautiful and refined as an orchid in the valley. With the pearl as a match, Begonia as a decoration, and then wearing that flowing fairy dress, it is really like Jiutian Xuannu1 descended to the world!”

    “And the madam… “The shopkeeper Tao has good eloquence. Her praises were as beautiful as a lotus flower blooming which made Yang Shi and the two Fang sisters smile, especially the Fang sisters, who were repeatedly cut off by Yang Shi.

    The shopkeeper of Nishangxuan was naturally unwilling to be left behind. She also spared no effort in promoting the most luxurious and exquisite dresses in her store.

    After half an hour, everyone had picked out the jewellery and clothes they were satisfied with. Even Shen Xin Yan also picked one piece of jewellery for Wei Jun Hang and a pair of children.

    For Wei Jun Hang and his son, she chose transparent jade pendants, while for her daughter, she chose a double-happiness flower hairpin inlaid with beads. Taking this opportunity, she simply chose two sets of head dressings and a dress for herself.

    Anyway, all the money spent is from the public. Free of charge. If you don’t spend it, you are losing!

    As for how Fang Shi, who is still smiling now, will react after seeing the bill, that’s not something she should consider.

    On the day of the Hundred Flowers Banquet, Fang Bi Rong got up early to dress up. Fang Shi did her sister’s makeup herself. Seeing her beautiful little sister, she couldn’t help but feel relieved.

    “Sister, how do you look at my dress? Is it appropriate?” Fang Bi Rong was a little nervous. After all, this was her first time showing her face in the capital. What kind of people she can marry in the future depends on this time at the Hundred Flowers Banquet.

    “My sister is very beautiful. You are even better than Princess Rui back then.” Fang Shi replied with a smile.

    “Really?” Fang Bi Rong’s eyes lit up and her pretty face flushed slightly.

    Princess Rui at that time was the most beautiful maiden in the capital. Any makeup she painted could easily make the ladies of the capital rush to imitate.

    “Of course it’s true. How can my sister be compared to those ordinary uncultured girls?” Fang was very confident about her sister’s appearance.

    “Sister, don’t worry. If there is a chance in the future, I will definitely help Qi Ge’er to regain the position he deserves.” Fang Bi Rong’s eyes were firm.

    “Right. As long as our sisters are of the same mind, one day we will make those who look down on us…” Fang Shi didn’t say the last half of her sentence, but the cruel expression on her face showed her intentions.

    “Shen Shi, I thought I had seen through her, but her behaviour recently is quite puzzling. When you go out with her, don’t quarrel with her. Even if you have some grievances, you can endure them for the time being. You must know that a gentleman takes revenge. Ten years is not too late.”

    “As for Yang Shi, she’s just a vulgar woman with shallow eyelids. There’s nothing to worry about. Just don’t argue with her. She’s a pungent woman without a face. It’s not a good thing for a girl to provoke her. “Fang Shi said worriedly.

    “Sister doesn’t need to worry. I have written it down.” Fang Bi Rong nodded.

    “The roster I gave you a few days ago. Do you memorize it all?”

    “I remember it all.”

    “That’s good. You leave the capital after birth. It’s the first time you’re attending a banquet in the capital. So you’d rather say less and do less. You must not offend anyone who cannot offend.” Fang Shi warned and repeated, and finally said, “The youngest son from the lady of the first assistant is now eighteen years old. It is time to discuss marriage. If you can get into her eyes, it will be a great help in the future. There are also Xu Shang Shu and Li Guo Gong. There are also men of the right age in these two houses. Hundred percent of the wives of these three families will go there. You should pay attention.”

    Fang Bi Rong nodded in agreement.

    Fang sisters were talking for a while. Over there, Shen Xin Yan had to coax her daughter who wanted to go with her. It was not easy to coax the little girl. She finally made the little girl happy after some ceding and guarantee. Then she took Qiu Tang and waited aside. Yang Shi and Fang Bi Rong went out and got on the carriage to Prince Kang’s mansion.

    “I arrived in the capital for the first time. This was also my first time at a banquet. I also asked the second lady and the third lady to remind me of everything so that I would not be embarrassed in front of the nobles.” After taking a seat, Fang Bi Rong said gracefully.

   “Miss Fang is a bright person. The eldest Sister-in-law is known for her shrewdness and intelligence. She must have already instructed everything and prepared well. I am just a slow-witted person. I really can’t afford this teaching.” Sincerely.

    Fang Bi Rong froze for a moment. A flash of anger flashed in her eyes. She forced a stiff smile and said dryly, “Shizi Furen is too modest.”

    After speaking, she sat quietly to the side and did not dare to say more.

    Shen Xin Yan ignored her, closed her eyes and took a rest.

    Yang Shi looked at this and then at that. Her eyes were clear. Immediately, she hugged Fang Bi Rong’s arm and said with a smile: “Sister Fang is so beautiful. She might be favoured by some noble person and marry a husband who has a bright future. I only hope that my sister will become rich in the future, but don’t forget to help my sister!”

    Fang Bi Rong’s pretty face flushed. She lowered her head shyly. Her mood seemed quite happy because of her words.

    The corner of Shen Xin Yan’s mouth slightly raised a mocking arc, but she didn’t speak.

    The carriage turned a few intersections and arrived at the street where Kangjun Wangfu was located.

    “There are too many people. When will it be our turn to go in?” When the carriage stopped, Yang Shi opened the curtain and looked out, exclaiming.

    Fang Bi Rong couldn’t help but look out secretly. All kinds of horses and carriages of different sizes and specifications were all in sight, blocking the originally spacious street densely. From a distance, it was faintly visible in front of the gate of the county king’s mansion to welcome guests. A dozen or so men dressed as stewards.

    Although she is from the capital, she has lived with her parents away from the capital since she was a child. She has never seen such a splendid occasion. She can’t help but be stunned for a while.

    Shen Xin Yan had participated in this Hundred Flowers Banquet in her previous life as the wife of the heir of the Ying Guo Gong mansion. She had already prepared in her heart, knowing that she would have to wait a while longer. So she continued to close her eyes and rest in peace.

    “Third madam, whose carriage is that? Why is it so grandiose?” From a distance, several carriages parked closer to Prince Kang’s mansion slowly gave way, allowing another luxury car that arrived late to drive in first. Fang Bi Rong asked curiously.

    “Other than the carriage from the house of the first assistant. Who has such a big face?” Yang Shi replied. She couldn’t hide the envy in her eyes.

    The first assistant of the court was not only the head of the cabinet but also the biological father of the empress. The glory of one family was unimaginable to others.

   The first assistant’s… Fang Bi Rong was silent.

    Shen Xin Yan opened her eyes when she heard the word “The first assistant”. She squinted at Fang Bi Rong, who was a little absent-minded, thinking about what the other party did in the previous life, she was thoughtful.

    In her last life, she was reluctant to bring Fang Bi Rong to the banquet. She didn’t like her, but she thought that she brought it out by herself. So she always mentioned her everywhere. In the end, however, Fang Bi Rong fell in love with her brother-in-law, Qi Liu Xiu, the editor of the Hanlin Academy.

    While Fang Bi Rong couldn’t let go of Qi Liu Xiu, she was unwilling to give up the chance to climb the high gate. Later, when it was revealed that her brother-in-law was Qi Liu Xiu, whom she met at the Hundred Flowers Banquet, Fang Shi naturally put the blame on her head.

    Not only Fang Shi, but also her younger sister, Qi Liu Xiu’s wife Shen Xin Lan, also hated her deeply.

    It’s really funny. Even if this didn’t happen, Fang Shi also hated her, the person who occupied the position that belonged to her. But what about her sister? Instead of resenting the adulterer and the harlot, she hated her own sister. Just because you can only pick soft persimmon!

    In this life, she can put an end to Qi Liu Xiu and Fang Bi Rong’s first meeting at the Hundred Flowers Banquet. But why? The cow wants to drink water. Could it be that she is still insisted on not letting go? 

    Don’t blame her for being cold and selfish. Whoever gets stabbed in the back by her own sister again and again can’t be magnanimous.

    This famous blind date banquet in disguise, Princess Kang has already held more than one time. So although there are many guests this time, the Prince’s Palace is also well prepared. The male guests were led to the main hall, while the female relatives were carried by the blue cloth sedan carriage into the second door, and then went to the flower hall.

    When Shen Xin Yan, Yang Shi and Fang Bi Rong came in, the hall was already full of chatter and laughter.

    Princess Kang at the top was talking with the lady of the first assistant. Several noble ladies accompanied her from time to time. The young ladies were greeted by the county head of Pingxiu, the daughter of Princess Kang.

    Although there are no men who can support Ying Guo Gong mansion in the court, the Duke’s wife is the eldest princess and the first aunt of the current sage. Although the present heir is quite sloppy, the saint’s family is quite prosperous. So that Shen Xin Yan, the heir’s wife, just came in. Many aristocratic ladies came forward to say hello.

    “I haven’t seen the eldest princess for a few days. I wonder if Your Highness will be well recently?” Princess Kang naturally did not dare to neglect her, and asked kindly.

   “Princess is concerned. Mother is all well.”

    “The lady next to Shizi Furen looks so good. Whose family girl is this?” On the other hand, the lady of the first assistant’s eyes lit up when she saw Fang Bi Rong. She asked expectantly.

    Fang Bi Rong reservedly gave a blessing to the ladies. She stood beside Shen Xin Yan and listened to her reply: “This is Miss Fang, the daughter of the Marquis of Pingliang. This is the first time she came back to the capital. My sister-in-law asked me to take her with me to see the world”

    “It turned out to be the girl from the Marquis Pingliang mansion.” The smile on the lady of the first assistant’s face subsided.
