Chapter 1452: Nagging
Situ Dieer pretended to be mysterious: "Second Sister, do you know? Big Sister is actually very secretive, hiding an earth-shattering secret."
"Third Sister, you're being immoral, learning to pique your Second Sister's curiosity." Situ Dieer's repeated failure to explain made Situ Qinger a bit impatient.
Situ Dieer: "No, no, I'm just too excited."
After that, she recounted everything she saw today to Situ Qinger, adding fuel to the fire with the information gathered by that maid.
Upon hearing this, Situ Qinger immediately gnashed her teeth in anger, her face almost distorted: "See, that little cheap person is really insidious, deliberately plotting against me in the shadows."
Situ Qinger's nonsensical words left Situ Dieer utterly baffled: "Second Sister, what's wrong with you now?"
"I was saying, where in the world would a brothel be named Qinger Building, unless this little cheap person did it to mess with me on purpose."
The truth of the matter that had been frustrating her for so long finally came to light, and Situ Qinger naturally flew into a rage.
During this period, whenever she went to gather with the distinguished ladies, she was ridiculed, saying she was so vulgar, changing her name to match that of a brothel.
She felt extremely aggrieved but helpless; even her grandfather couldn't deal with Qinger Building, so what could a weak woman like her do?
Who would have thought that the person causing her trouble for so long was right under her nose, pretending to be her sister every day? Can you say she wouldn't go mad with anger?
At this moment, Situ Dieer suddenly realized: "Who could have guessed that among so many of us, Big Sister is the most formidable one."
"She's just a little cheap person, took everything from me, and even opened a lousy brothel to harm me." Situ Qinger's eyes shot out a fierce glare, wishing she could rush out immediately to find Xuexue and strangle her with her own hands.
Situ Dieer thought for a moment and then gently comforted Situ Qinger: "Second Sister, don't be angry. Now that we know her background, we can deal with her easily."
"Third Sister, what do you mean?"
Mother had always praised Third Sister before her death as the reincarnation of a Wise Star, always having clever strategies for any situation.
Situ Dieer smiled mysteriously, extended her arm, and beckoned Situ Qinger: "Second Sister, come over here."
"What's up?"
"Just come over."
Situ Qinger obediently walked over, and Situ Dieer leaned close to her ear and whispered a few words.
"Alright, this is what we call an eye for an eye."
The next day at noon.
The streets and alleys of the Capital, teahouses and eateries were all abuzz with the rumor that the legitimate eldest Miss of the Situ Mansion was the hidden owner of Qinger Building.
The rumors also claimed that the silver used by Xuexue to open the brothel came from embezzling the General's Mansion funds.
As a result, the General's Mansion was in an uproar, with the Old Madam being the first to launch an attack.
It's unclear whether the Old Madam became overly concerned with money due to her age, but she particularly cherished the ancestral assets, fearing that if she accidentally died, she wouldn't face her ancestors in Hell.
She often said this, nagging Situ Yongjie about it.
"Jiejie, look at the good daughter you recognized. She's actually a thief, sneaking our family's wealth outside." As soon as this news reached the Old Madam's ears, she couldn't sit still, and led a party of maids and old maids to march grandiosely to confront Situ Yongjie.
Initially, she was against Xuexue managing things, but Situ Yongjie insisted, forcing her into this odious position.
Now look what's happened, she's embezzled so much silver from the General's Mansion.
With these thoughts, the Old Madam felt inexplicably heartbroken.
