It meant that she must have been assigned to do this, and it must have been approved of by the ladies of the Jia Family.
Else a maid would not dare do something like that.
Finally, it pointed to just one thing the Jia Family wasn’t a very nice family.
Qiao Xuan was the first-time guest, why should the Jia Family cause her trouble.
Also, if a maid dares to do this, it was because her mistress wasn’t nice.
Totally immoral and uneducated.
The two ladies of the Jia Family glanced at Yuezheng Ting and regretted it.
It was Yuezheng Ting who had begged them and promised them something so they could arrange Qiao Xuan to sit next to Lady Min, who was narrow-minded and cared about her appearance. She wanted to set up Qiao
She did manage to set up Qiao Xuan, but Qiao Xuan got the Jia Family involved in this as well.
Qiao Xuan added. “Since you are sure that it was me who did this, then Lady Min, I am sorry and I can pay you 100 liang for this dress, alright?”
Lady Min was startled and snorted. “Pay me then!”
She could not help but burst with joy.
She only had a monthly pocket money of three liang, and she barely had any extra money to spend. This amount was going to keep her rich for a long while.
But Qiao Xuan added politely. “Then my 100 liang should be able to buy out this dress, right? Lady Min should never be allowed to have this dress any longer, no? Too bad that it can’t be washed by you. I can take it home and wash it myself. Could you please give me the dress?”
Most young ladies and madams laughed, as they turned to Qiao Xuan disdainfully.
She was indeed a countryside woman who even wanted a dress someone else had worn before. How humiliating!
Yuezheng Ting laughed too. She was glad to see the situation develop .
If she recounted the story to the whole mansion, everyone was going to laugh at her. Her Elder Aunt had considered this kind of girl as someone important. Wasn’t she afraid of getting humiliated?
Lady Min snorted proudly. “Sure, pay me and the dress is yours. Take it as you want.”
“Xi, keep Lady Min company to get changed, and remember to give me the dress when she is done.’
Qiao Xuan said and handed over 100 liang to Xi, saying calmly, “Then, I can ask Aunt who makes this dress so expensive and worth so much money, so I can also buy two sets of garments to take them home for my sister-in-law.” It was very quiet in the hall. Everyone was startled.
Lady Min suddenly realized what was happening. She flushed as she turned to Qiao Xuan, looking furious. “You…”
Qiao Xuan was still composed and looked at her calmly.
She spent 100 liang buying the dress and she had all the rights to do anything she wanted with it.
Everyone knew that Lady Min’s dress was not worth 100 liang, or even 80 liang as she claimed.
It would be priced at most at 8 liang.
She was just bullying Qiao Xuan for being a countryside girl who knew nothing. She wanted to threaten and frighten Qiao Xuan so she could beg for forgiveness.
Everyone had been amused to see Qiao Xuan offering 100 liang to purchase the dress..
