"On what grounds?" Li Shan stood up angrily. Why should she be confined for three months? Her face had an allergic reaction; she was the victim. Why was she being punished? Unable to control herself, Li Shan smashed the things in the room once again.

"Calm down," Aunt Wang stepped forward to stop her.

"I can't calm down. We're all father's daughters. Why am I being treated differently?" As she spoke, Li Shan grabbed a vase from the Treasure Gallery and smashed it forcefully. The flying shards cut Aunt Wang's hand.

Aunt Wang looked at her hand, feeling drained by Li Shan's frenzied behavior. She turned and left, letting Li Shan cool off on her own.

Seeing Aunt Wang leave, Li Shan became even angrier. She directly pushed over the Treasure Gallery shelf and flipped the table. Outside the room, several maids heard Li Shan's frenzy inside. Cui Ming and Cui Liu were worried. Cui Fang, completely uninvolved, hid to one side to avoid being accidentally hurt. Cuihong's eyes revealed a hint of joy - how nice that her face was ruined too.

Hearing Zi Yu's report that Lu Hua Palace had gone to the warehouse for replacement items, Mrs. Lu frowned, "How many sets is this now?"

"Third Young Miss has smashed three sets since this morning," Zi Yu replied.

"Tell the warehouse not to furnish her room anymore. If she wants new things, she can pay for them herself. If she doesn't have money, then she'll have to do without." The Li family's money didn't grow on trees, to be wasted by Li Shan like this.

Although Li Shan's clothing shop had earned some money, it couldn't keep up with her love for gold and silver jewelry. She hadn't saved any money, so how could she afford replacements?

In the end, it was still Aunt Wang who dipped into her private savings to buy Li Shan a new set of furnishings. Aunt Wang advised her again and again to be sensible and stop making trouble, to stay quietly in her courtyard. The main priority was for the red swelling on her face to subside.

Perhaps it was Aunt Wang's persuasion that worked, or perhaps it was Mrs. Lu's strictness. Li Shan finally calmed down and stopped causing trouble.

However, Li Guang was quite upset. The seafood pastries were specially brought to him by his classmate. He didn't want to eat them at school and brought them home to share with his elder brother and aunt.

Passing through the garden, he encountered Li Yao. Because Aunt Wang was strict about his diet, Li Yao had always eaten bland food. He was tired of eating like this every day. Smelling the fragrant seafood pastries in Li Guang's hand, he couldn't help but ask his third brother to share one with him.

Li Yao's chubby little face blinked his big eyes pitifully at Li Guang. How could Li Guang resist this? He gave Li Yao half of the seafood pastry. How could he have known that Li Yao would give it to Li Shan? Even more, how could he have imagined that Li Shan was allergic to seafood?

Li Shan had never mentioned being allergic to seafood. In fact, Li Shan herself didn't know she was allergic to seafood. She had eaten crab before without getting sick. Li Shan believed in her heart that Auntie An wanted to harm her. But the doctor said it was an allergy, and Aunt Wang didn't believe that Auntie An, who was so stupid, would poison her.

When he heard that he was punished to copy the Disciples' Rules, he was incredibly frustrated. Fortunately, it was only ten times. He tried to console himself by thinking of it as reviewing old knowledge. Even so, Li Guang was thoroughly annoyed with Li Shan and decided to stay far away from her in the future.

Li Xia, on the other hand, admired Mrs. Lu very much. With one move, she had forced Li Shan to stay at home and recuperate properly. There was not a single flaw to pick at. When she went to visit Xu Xinyue at the Xu residence, she spoke of this incident with great admiration.

"There are no secrets in the Li family that can escape Madam's notice. She just chooses not to speak of them," Xu Xinyue had always respected and admired Mrs. Lu. "You shouldn't take advantage of Madam's favor and do as you please."

"Am I that kind of person?" Li Xia changed into the autumn clothes Xu Xinyue had made for her, turning in front of the mirror and nodding with satisfaction. This lake blue silk made her skin look even whiter.

Xu Xinyue gave her a look that said, "Figure it out yourself."

"Mother, I didn't see this mirror last time?" The clear, visible mirror before her eyes. In her past life, she had seen many. But since coming to this era, she had only seen bronze mirrors.

"This is the latest full-length mirror launched by Cartier," Previously, for Li Xin's coming-of-age ceremony, Xu Xinyue and the others had bought a lot of jewelry from Cartier, spending thousands of taels of silver. Cartier had given them a membership card, saying they had priority access to internal purchases.

Before the full-length mirror went on sale, someone from the store had delivered a palm-sized small mirror. The clarity was so good that Xu Xinyue immediately liked it and ordered one of each type of mirror. This full-length mirror had just been delivered today.

"I ordered full-length mirrors for you, Madam, and the eldest young miss. They should be delivered this afternoon." When there were good things, Xu Xinyue didn't forget about the Li family.

"This must have cost quite a bit. Do you have enough money?" These newly released mirrors must not be cheap.

"It's enough. I still have plenty left from what you gave me last time," Seeing Li Xia about to reach for her purse again, Xu Xinyue quickly stopped her. The shops she had bought were starting to make money now. She wasn't short of money to spend.

Leaving the Xu residence, Li Xia instructed to stop by a teahouse for a while, where she heard quite a bit of gossip.

First was that the Third Prince had taken a new concubine. This concubine was said to be very good at making money. Not long after entering the Prince's mansion, she had come up with something as good as the full-length mirror. The ladies and young women of the capital were very fond of the full-length mirrors.

Some of the Fourth Prince's small actions had also come to light. The Fourth Prince had been reprimanded by the Emperor and was confined to reflect on his actions. A good marriage that had been arranged for him also fell through. The Fourth Prince hated Miss Lu to death. At the same time, he came to hate the Lu family and the Li family as well. If it hadn't been for the incident at the Li family, the news wouldn't have leaked and been discovered.

The Fourth Prince was now reflecting and couldn't make any small moves, but once he came out, he would definitely deal with the Li family. However, the Li family wasn't afraid of a Fourth Prince without real power. If they really started to move against each other, the outcome was unknown.

Another piece of news was that Zhao Decheng, the prodigal son of the Wen'an Marquis's family, had his manhood broken while having fun with someone. Because it happened in a brothel, the matter couldn't be kept secret, and the whole capital knew about it. Many people expressed sympathy on the surface, but in their hearts, they were overjoyed, laughing with glee.

The Zhao family was now everywhere seeking famous doctors to try to cure Zhao Decheng.

Meanwhile, Li Shan, who had been waiting at the Li residence for Zhao Decheng to come and rescue her, upon hearing that Zhao Decheng had ruined his manhood at a brothel, was so angry that she coughed up blood on the spot. She had already been depressed about her allergic reaction and being confined by Mrs. Lu. Now, the man she thought was her savior turned out to be a lecher.

Li Shan couldn't accept it and smashed another tea set in her room. This time, Aunt Wang refused to replace it for her. Smashing things when angry was certainly not a good habit.

Li Shan was both furious and enraged, causing her physical discomfort to worsen. She couldn't even leave her courtyard until Li Hui returned to the capital.

In the Li family, apart from Aunt Wang and Li Yao, no one paid attention to Li Shan. Mrs. Lu and Li Xin were carefully examining themselves in the full-length mirror.

"Mother, this mirror is too clear. Look, you can even see the pimple on my face clearly," said Li Xin. She had been feeling a bit feverish these past few days, causing a small pimple to appear on her cheek.
