With that, she left.

Cheng Qingxue was about to explode.

Cheng Lian, who was in the carriage, was not in a better state than her. From the moment she saw the family head’s token, she could not remain calm.

She didn’t know how she returned to the Cheng family.

She stopped going to the shop to manage the business. She just used scissors in the room to cut whatever she could.

“Madam, Madam, Madam!”

Nanny clasped her wrist and shook it hard.

Cheng Lian returned to her senses and looked at the clothes that she had cut on the table. Her throat moved as she said, “You were in the carriage just now. You saw it too, right?”

The nanny sighed. ‘Yes, I saw it. It’s our Cheng family’s family head’s token.”

The maidservant at the side said, “Old Master is really biased. You are both clearly his daughters. Why would he rather hand the family head’s token to a lunatic than Madam?”

The nanny said, “At that time, Madam had yet to marry Young Master. Perhaps

Old Master thought that Madam was going to marry outside…”

The daughters of the Cheng family did not marry outsiders, which meant that they were legitimate daughters.

A concubine’s daughter was not an heir and could be married off.

The maidservant said unhappily, “But what’s the use of giving it to a lunatic? If you want to give it to someone, it should be to Old Master!”

The nanny did not know how to persuade her.

Cheng Lian said softly, “All these years, Old Master has done his best for the family. Because there was no family head’s token, some old fellows in the family didn’t give Old Master face and made him suffer a lot. I once asked

Sister where the family head’s token was, but she always ignored me. I thought that she had long forgotten what the family head’s token was and that she would never be able to find it in her life, but look, she gave it to that girl.”

The nanny thought for a moment and said, “It might not have been given by Eldest Miss. Perhaps that girl stole it from Eldest Miss’s courtyard. Didn’t she move in with Eldest Miss? At that time, I felt that this person was strange and must have some motive for coming to the Cheng family. Now, it seems that her to show one’s her colors; the jig is up!”

The maidservant hurriedly said, “That’s right, Madam. I heard that she hooked up with the Yin family. She’s most likely a spy sent by the Yin family!”

The Yin family and the Cheng family had been competing for many years, fighting openly and covertly. They had endless methods, so it was not surprising that they would do such a thing.

Cheng Lian shook her head. “We searched for 30 years but couldn’t find it. The girl has only lived in there for two days. How could she have stolen it?”

The nanny said, “Even if Eldest Miss really gave it to her, she was most likely coaxed by her. Madam, have you forgotten that Eldest Miss treats her as her dead daughter?”

Cheng Lian looked at the nanny in surprise. “You mean… the family head’s token is invalid?”

The nanny sneered. “At least it’s useless in her hands! What’s the big deal about her lying to a lunatic? As long as everyone understands this, Madam can naturally take back the family head’s token!”

Cheng Lian shook her head slightly. “Isn’t it… not good for Sister if I do this?”

The nanny snorted. “They’ve all deceived Eldest Miss. You’re Eldest Miss’s only sister and the closest person to Eldest Miss. You’re protecting Eldest Miss by doing this! Don’t let her be deceived by a scammer!”

After Su Xiaoxiao entered the Saintess’s Hall with the family head’s token, she was brought to the side hall where the register was made by a disciple.

A disciple who was tidying up the doc.u.ments looked at the family head’s token handed over and was first stunned before saying in surprise, “Second Miss

Cheng, you found the family head’s token? You—you’re not Cheng Qingxue!” The disciple saw a completely unfamiliar face.

Su Xiaoxiao smiled. “Cheng Su, should I fill it in myself, or should you write it?”

Su Xiaoxiao came out very quickly. Cheng Qingxue was still queuing up.

When she saw Su Xiaoxiao, she wished she could skin her alive.

Mei Ji blocked Cheng Qingxue’s vision and walked towards the carriage with Su

Xiaoxiao. “You came out so quickly?”

Su Xiaoxiao said, “I just found out that the family head’s token can yield so many privileges. The first three rounds are free of exams and you can directly enter the selection the day after tomorrow.”

Mei Ji whispered, “Then there’s no need for a physical examination? I heard from them just now that the first round is a physical examination. I was wondering how you could hide it. We can’t lie that the one in your stomach is the Saintess’ fate.”

The Saintess had to be a virgin.

For example, those who had their saintess’ fate in their mother’s womb were rare. One or two could not be found in hundreds of years.

Su Xiaoxiao said, “I only logged in today. There’s no reason for me to stay inside forever. When the selection is held, I’ll think of a way to meet the man locked up by the Saintess. There’s something more important now.”

Mei Ji asked, “What is it?”

Su Xiaoxiao played with the token in her hand. “The family head’s token has appeared. Someone can’t sit still anymore.”

When Xie Yunhe returned from outside, he heard that Su Xiaoxiao had taken the family head’s token to partic.i.p.ate in the Saintess election.

He immediately went to Cheng Sang’s courtyard.

At the door, he b.u.mped into Cheng Lian and her servant, who had also rushed over.

A complicated look flashed across Cheng Lian’s gentle expression. “Master, you’re back.”

Xie Yunhe went straight to the point and asked, “What’s going on with the family head’s token?”

Cheng Lian said worriedly, “I sent Qingxue to the Holy Maiden Temple today, and that little girl also went. She actually took our family head’s token and said that Sister agreed to let her partic.i.p.ate. I was worried about Sister… so I came to take a look.”

Xie Yunhe entered the courtyard with a dark expression.

Su Xiaoxiao lay leisurely on the rattan chair under the sun, a book covering her face.

Mei Ji was sitting beside her, eating a sweet potato.

The maidservants were not around.

Cheng Sang was nowhere to be seen.

The entire courtyard seemed to have been taken by the master and servant.

Xie Yunhe’s expression darkened again. “What are you doing!”

Mei Ji glanced at him and continued to eat the sweet potato.

Su Xiaoxiao gently took away the book on her face and glanced at him before sitting up calmly. “Master is here.”

“Where’s Madam?” Xie Yunhe asked.

“Isn’t she beside you?” After Su Xiaoxiao finished speaking, she nodded in enlightenment. “Master, are you referring to my grandmother? So you still remember that she’s your Madam. This concubine beside you asked the entire residence to call her Madam. I thought you thought so too.”

Cheng Lian pinched the handkerchief imperceptibly.

Cheng Lian’s trusted nanny said, “Master, before she came to the Cheng family, First Madam was so energetic. The courtyard was noisy all day long. Ever since she came, First Madam seemed to have been drugged and became extremely quiet. In my opinion, she probably poisoned First Madam.”

The maidservant agreed. “That’s right, Master! She must have poisoned First

Madam! Otherwise, why would First Madam give her the family master token?”

The nanny looked at Su Xiaoxiao coldly. “Hurry up and hand over the family head’s token!”

Su Xiaoxiao smiled faintly. “What if I don’t hand it over?”

The nanny said to Xie Yunhe, “Master, this person is stubborn. We have to get serious. In my opinion, there’s no need to be polite with her. Just tie her up and send her to the government! Let her eat the prison meals for a few days. Let’s see if she would still be so tough!”

Xie Yunhe did not object. The nanny said sternly, “Someone! Tie her up!”

“Let’s see who dares!”

With a dignified woman’s voice, the door to the main room opened.

Cheng Sang’s aura was fully released as she walked out with a dignified gaze.

She looked at the people in the courtyard and said domineeringly, “Cheng Lian,

Xie Yunhe, long time no see!”
