Time always passed quickly when one was fully immersed in cultivation. In the blink of an eye, another week had passed.
For the past week, she would return to her new courtyard for three meals a day, showing her face in front of Xi Mengdie's three maids. After eating, she would run to Qingfeng Courtyard to focus on cultivation.
Recently, Xi Mengdie's hatred for her had become more and more obvious.
She believed that with that woman's mind, she wouldn't just sit back and do nothing.
That was why she told Lan'er to keep a close eye on those three maids.
After Lan'er's courage grew, she didn't disappoint her. Her methods of controlling those three maids improved day by day.
In front of Lan'er, those three maids couldn't take advantage of her at all. For the time being, they couldn't find an opportunity to scheme against her.
Seven days passed by peacefully.
However, she knew full well that this had to do with Xi Mengdie's failure to invite Doctor He.
Later, she found out that not only did Xi Mengdie agree to Xi Home Leader's request, she even boasted to the Jin Family.
It seemed that the rock Xi Mengdie had lifted was quite big.
On this day, news came from the City Lord, saying that the five winners would be invited to the City Lord's residence as guests.
For a commoner, this was a great honor, especially since the Xi Family had invited two people. It made Xi Home Leader's face glow with glory.
"Mengdie, Nuo Ying, it's your fortune to be able to enter the Pond Gardens today. When you get there, remember to be careful. Don't offend the City Lord."
Before leaving, Xi Home Leader reminded them again and again.
Xi Mengdie bowed. "Don't worry, Grandpa. Mengdie knows what to do. I'll pay attention to Ninth Sister's words and actions and take care of her."
At this time, she was once again putting on the airs of an elder sister. She was a bit proud, and she glanced at Schilling's Shadow with a hint of malice.
Of course, these words were not as simple as they sounded on the surface. There was a hidden meaning of "teaching".
If anything were to happen to Xi Nuoying, with the promise she made to her grandfather, she could openly teach her a lesson.
She had long found Schilling's Shadow an eyesore. If she had the chance, she would definitely teach him a lesson.
Schilling's Shadow was slightly surprised. He followed Xi Mengdie's example and bowed.
"Nuo Ying rarely goes out, so some of her actions will indeed deviate. When the time comes, with Third Sister's attention and care, I definitely won't make any mistakes."
She smoothly continued the conversation, making the Xi Clan feel at ease. "That's good."
The moment Xi Home leader turned around, Xi Mengdie glared at Schilling's Shadow.
Of course, she wouldn't believe Schilling's Shadow.
Xi Home leader had prepared a spacious carriage for the two of them. When Xi Mengdie turned around to glare at her, Schilling's Shadow had already stepped onto the carriage and sat in the middle without any hesitation.
Miss Xi, who cared about her image, had to climb the steps and have someone help her. When she got onto the carriage and saw Schilling's Shadow sitting in the middle, her expression turned ugly.
"Ninth Sister, I'm your elder sister." She reminded through gritted teeth.
Schilling's Shadow blinked innocently. "I know. They all say that an elder sister should be more accommodating to her younger sister. Thank you, Third Sister."
She moved her body and positioned herself in the center of the room.
Xi Mengdie's eyes were spitting fire. "Schilling's Shadow, are you purposely going against me?"
After holding it in for so long, she finally exploded.
