Apart from a crystal-clear jasper hairpin studded with pearls the size of a finger, there were a few silver hairpins and silk flowers on the bun, completely different from how Yuezheng Ting and her mother were dressed.

“Elder Aunt, why didn’t you buy some new dresses for Mrs. Shao? She looks so… shabby.”

Ms. Mi Junior chuckled and added. “Yeah, Elder Sister-in-law, if you didn’t have time to arrange this small thing, you could have left it to me. I have many new clothes that aren’t worn yet, which are still better than what she is wearing now. I can get someone to fetch them for Mrs. Shao. This outfit on her looks very improper! People might think that you are looking down at your guest!”

Qiao Xuan threw a strange look at Ms. Mi Junior, but said with a smile, “Second Madame Yuezheng, I don’t really get it. I am here as a guest, and I am wearing my own dress. Why is it related to Aunt? I am not part of the

Yuezheng Family.”

Was she trying to make her into a laughing stock? Sorry, that would not work.

“We are from the countryside, and this is how we are dressed. Aunt gave a jade hairpin to me but I still think it is too much. I am sure that Madame Jia knows where I am from and if she looks down at me, she should not have sent me the invitation. Isn’t that right?”

Qiao Xuan heard from the First Madame that Madame Jia was Ms. Mi Juniors good friend. So, Ms. Mi Junior should have said a lot of things to Madame Jia who would help Ms. Mi Junior in every aspect.

Therefore, Ms. Mi Junior must have told Madame Jia everything about her.

If Qiao Xuan was dressed fitting her status, then she could counter anyone who laughed at her, and First Madame would help her as well. But if she was dressed above her status, she might become a laughing stock.

Ms. Mi Junior felt somehow uncomfortable, as if her secret had been seen through so she felt annoyed due to shame.

“Madame Jia doesn’t look down at you. But you are the guest I bring to the banquet, so you can always be dressed beautifully.”

Yuezheng Ting said straightforwardly, “Mrs. Shao, my mom is being kind-hearted! After all, you barely will get a chance to attend any banquet in the future, so you should cherish this occasion.”

First Madame frowned and threw Yuezheng Ting a displeased look.

It seemed that this niece of hers had been completely ruined by her mother.

This sister-in-law had ruined two of her daughters. How excellent she had been at raising a child…

“No need.” Qiao Xuan ignored her provocation and showed a brief smile. “I am fine like this.”

“Just save your breath.” First Madame said coldly, “Xuan is the guest and she should have the final say. I like how she is dressed. Very proper!’

Ms. Mi Junior sneered. “Okay then, you have the say, Elder Sister-in-law!”

She sized up Qiao Xuan secretly, thinking that Qiao Xuan must be feeling unconvinced. She was a countryside person and she never had the qualification to attend any noble banquets in the province.

It was such a rare opportunity. She would definitely have liked to dress up well and show up in glory.

Every woman loved beautiful clothes and jewelry.

Anyway, Ms. Mi Junior snorted coldly. She believed that Qiao Xuan would hate the Elder Sister-in-law for what she got now. It was a fun thing to watch..
