Qiao Ruoshui's Oral Decree

Old Madam Zheng took the tea cup and gently skimmed off the foam with the lid. "But you had once been married after all, so we will not give you any betrothal gifts, but your dowry is indispensable.

"The dowry must be based on the standard for a Duke's daughter. After all, Bo'er was a fourth-rank prefect in Shu.

"And you have also lost your virginity, so you'll have to abide by the Virtues of Women after marrying him."

Qiao Ruoyi said weakly, "His Majesty has annulled the so-called the Virtues of Women. Now it's normal for women to divorce and remarry."

Old Madam Zheng snapped, "Shut up! I'm talking to your sister! What makes you think you, a concubine-born girl, can interrupt us?

"Your mother is too good-tempered, but I will not allow a concubine-born daughter to enjoy the same status as a biological daughter."

Qiao Ruoyi replied. "Okay."
