Chapter 84: In front of him, be a little softer...

  "Miss, this dress can't be made immediately. You've lost so much blood and energy, why don't you rest for tonight and we'll make the dress tomorrow?"

  Looking at Sheng Jinxiu's face without a hint of blood, Qiu Shi's eyes were filled with heartache.

  "No! This dress needs to be finished early, you go find me some needles and threads first, I'll take a nap, rest for a bit, and then start making the dress. When I'm tired, I'll sleep again," Sheng Jinxiu said: "I know my body best, there won't be any big problem!"

  "Qiushi, if you're worried about me, I'll write another prescription for nourishing food, and you can help me stew some tonic dishes..."

  Finally, she added: "This matter, just you and I know about it, don't let anyone else find out."

  "I understand what you mean," Qiushi said: "There are other people's eyes in our yard, if those eyes see it, they will ruin your plan."

  "But if Lord Hou and the young masters were to find out, they might worry about our side..."

  "Uh-huh!" Sheng Jinxiu nodded in satisfaction: "As long as you have a plan in mind, go prepare."

  Qiu Shi hastily went to find suitable silk threads and various materials for making that piece of nightwear.

  Sheng Jinxiu lay on the bed, closing her eyes to rest...

  She regretted that she had just impulsively quarreled with Yan Beichen... It's not easy to be reborn, and she can't be so reckless anymore!

  She could have put it in a milder and more tactful way when talking to him...

  Through two generations' understanding of Yan Beichuan, he seems to be someone who yields to softness but not to hardness.

  Then, after her nightgown was ready, she went in front of him and became even... softer?

  And Zhou Shui Bi on the other hand... she also has a plan!

  From this evening on, Sheng Jinxiu did not take a single step out of the inner chamber, grasping every possible moment to rush and make sleeping clothes...

  But on the second day, she let Qiushi choose several pieces of red, green, blue and purple fabric from her private storage room, wrapped them tightly, and had Muyu bring them to Shangshu Mansion with Yaotou's wife. She specifically instructed Muyu to personally deliver a few pieces of red fabric to Zhou Shui Bi, saying that this was her gift to Zhou Shui Bi in advance, hoping that Zhou Shui Bi would find a good match at the Spring Festival banquet...

  In the past, whenever there was any interaction between Zhou Shui Bi and Sheng Jin Xiu, Mu Yu would always spread it outside to help tie Zhou Shui Bi to the Yong An Marquis's household, so that Zhou Shui Bi could benefit from it!

  This time is no exception!

  It was just a few pieces of cloth, but Yu Yu had invited six or seven outer courtyard servant girls to go with her to see them off.

  Every young woman and elderly lady carried a piece of cloth, making quite an impression as they made their way to the residence of the Minister.

  When someone asked, Wu Yu was still self-satisfied and said: "This is a gift from our Yong'an Marquis's daughter, Jin Xiu Miss, to the Ministry of Revenue's Shangshu Fu's Zhou Qi Miss!"

  "Miss Jinxiu and Miss Shuibei are the best of friends in the boudoir!"

  "...A few pieces of cloth are nothing? That refers to ordinary cloth, the several pieces of cloth that Jin Yu sent to Shui Bi, each one is a good material that you have never seen before!"

  "It's only natural that Miss Shui Bi would make clothes for herself! Nowadays, Miss Shui Bi only wears clothes made from the fabric sent by Miss Jin Xiu..."

  Two days later.

  The day before Spring Festival.

  Zhou Shui Bi wore a light yellow dress, with her hair in braids and her makeup delicate, as she stepped down from the small sedan chair and stood at the entrance of the Regent's palace.

  "Miss Zhou Qi!" The guard at the door recognized her and greeted her proactively.

  She gazed at the sign of the Regent's Mansion, slightly raised her chin, and seemed somewhat complacent!

  This Regent's Mansion is a place where the common people of Daxing can only look up to, and even high-ranking officials in the imperial court cannot enter without permission. However, Zhou Shui Bi can come and go freely!

  She knew that all of this was due to the influence of Sheng Jinxiu, and for some reason, the Regent King had an extremely obsessive possessiveness towards Sheng Jinxiu. But what did it matter? As long as she continued to create conflicts between Yan Beizheng and Sheng Jinxiu, it would be enough to make Yan Beizheng personally strangle that stupid Sheng Jinxiu to death!

  Yan Beizhuang is the most powerful and excellent man in this world, how can Sheng Jinshu, that stupid and humble merchant woman, be worthy of him?

  As long as she could drive that cheap girl away, she would be the only woman beside Yan Beizheng!

  She can become the queen regent under one person and above all others!

  From now on, starting today...
