IACF [QT] Chapter 61.4

Arc 3 - The Heroine's Stunning Stepmother: Be Pure, Don't Be So Heavy (4)

She stood up and walked around the room.

When Miss Su got married, although the Su family was in decline, the prestige of a wealthy family was still there. As the only legitimate daughter who was getting married, her dowry was naturally generous.

The furnishings in this room were all taken out from Miss Su’s private storage. Any one of them would be enough for an ordinary family to live a good life for a few years.

Su Yi found a mirror in the room. Unlike the blurry bronze mirror, this mirror was like a mercury glass mirror, which clearly reflected her current appearance.

Although her identity is Miss Su, this body is her own. After entering this world, Mao Tuan made adjustments to her based on the original owner’s data.

The person in the mirror was only twenty-seven or twenty-eight at this time. If it were in modern times, she would still be as beautiful as a flower at this age. But in this era, women over thirty were about to have grandchildren.

It could be seen that she was extremely beautiful. Whether it was her facial features or her bone structure, she was the most beautiful among all the humans Su Yi had seen.

Unfortunately, her face was a little haggard, her skin had no luster, and her demeanor and temperament were like a pool of stagnant water, which reduced her beauty.

Su Yi straightened her waist, raised the corners of her mouth, curved her eyebrows, and showed a smile in her devilish style.

Her face suddenly seemed to be injected with vitality, and the whole person became vivid and lively. Every frown and smile was charming and captivating.

“Not bad.” Su Yi nodded, very satisfied with this.

As for the skin condition not being good enough, she could just wait for it to change slowly.

She could also adjust her physical condition to the best condition immediately, but then she would have to deal with other people’s suspicions. It was better to have less trouble than more.

After inspecting the room, she poured herself a cup of tea.

When the teapot was put down, there was a slight sound.

Someone outside the door immediately asked: “Miss, are you awake?”

Some of the people in this small courtyard were brought by her from the Su Mansion, and some were bought later. At the request of the original owner, they all called her ‘Miss’.

“Come in.” Su Yi said.

The brocade curtain hanging by the door was lifted, and a young woman in her twenties walked in slowly.

Su Yi remembered that this was the maid by the original owner’s side, named Qing Lian. A few years ago, under the arrangement of the original owner, she married a steward of the farm.

Seeing Su Yi standing by the table, Qing Lian was stunned for a moment.

Then, she went forward, took the coat on the carved screen, and put it on her, saying, “Why didn’t Young Lady tell me that you woke up? Although it’s spring, the weather is still cold. You’ll get sick if you stand here like this. Don’t drink the tea. I will ask someone to pour it again.”

As she said that, she called the name of a maid and asked her to pour tea.

Su Yi was helped by the other party to sit down again, with a pillow behind her waist, a thin blanket on her knees, and hot tea in her hands.

She couldn’t help feeling happy. Although she was not a little beauty, this Qing Lian girl was beautiful and kind, and was more useful than a little beauty.

Just as she finished praising the other party in her heart, Qing Lian said, “This month’s account book has been delivered. Do the Young Lady want to take a look now?”

Su Yi thought about it quickly and realized what the account book was.

In addition to those antiques and jewelry, the original owner’s dowry also included two shops and two farms. Qing Lian’s husband managed one of the farms. Over the years, the expenses of the courtyard were supported by the output of the shops and farms.

Su Yi felt that she was deceived by Mao Tuan. He clearly said that she could just be a parasite and didn’t have to worry about making money. As a result, as soon as she came, she had to look at the account book miserably before she even sat down.

She had to look at it because there was a whole yard of people waiting for her to support them. The great demon was not an irresponsible kind of demon.

As soon as she looked, she saw the lights were on. Qing Lian was directing the maid to bring up the low table and set the table for the meal in an orderly manner.

Su Yi took the opportunity to count. There were two first-class maids in her yard, one was Qing Lian, and the other was Qing Xing. She was younger and had not yet married. She went home to visit her relatives today.

In addition to the two of them, there were several second-class maids, a bunch of maids, plus the cooks and the gatekeepers, a total of 17 or 18 people.

These were the female members. There were also some servants and stewards outside who took care of her dowry. Roughly speaking, she had nearly 30 people under her, which was not much less than when she was the big demon.

She wanted to sigh a little.

Where were the rice bugs? So many hungry mouths to feed. Mao Tuan, you are cheating your mother.

Mao Tuan was in space, covering his ears and pretending not to hear.
