Su Wenyue knew that the jewelry Lan Xin and Lan Fang wore on their heads was the best set they had that could still be considered presentable. The eldest aunt had strong control over the backyard, and the concubines, being of low status, did not possess much of value. Their mother was originally just a concubine girl and was later elevated in status after bearing children, becoming a concubine. How much of value could she have in her hands?
Apart from the rewards bestowed by the Old lady and Master's Wife, they only had a few taels of monthly wages. What could be given to the sisters Lan Xin and Lan Fang was even less. However, the eldest aunt was not particularly attentive to the two concubine's daughters, nor was she harsh—everything that a concubine's daughter should have, they had. The clothes and jewelry of Lan Xin and Lan Fang were in line with their status, neither bad nor particularly outstanding, all proper and according to the rules.
