Chapter 214 Chickens and dogs ascend to heaven
"As long as I don't make you my equal wife, you will always be just a concubine. I'm going to make this clear today. I, Li Xiaoxiao, will always be soft-hearted and never hard-hearted. No matter if you or anyone else wants to deal with me, just come at me."
Li Xiaoxiao walked up to Tang Xiuwen and looked down at her. The arrogance in her words was obvious, just like a princess who was high and mighty.
It was this fat woman who separated her mother and grandmother for so many years. She doesn't have the power to do that now, but she will definitely make her get the punishment she deserves in the future.
Not only Tang Xiuwen, but also Qiao Yueru who was standing beside her was shocked by the aura in her eyes.
"Qiao Yueru, what is your purpose in coming here today? Do you want this concubine to make the decision for you?" Li Xiaoxiao looked at Qiao Yueru with amusement, with obvious fear in her eyes.
"No, that's not the case. I just followed my grandma to pay my respects to the old lady," Qiao Yueru immediately backed down.
"Now that An has been invited, my grandma is tired, so you can leave," Li Xiaoxiao waved her hands at her as if she was shooing away a fly.
Qiao Riru didn't dare to say another word now and just wanted to leave quickly.
"Grandma, can you still stand up?" It was Tang Xiuwen who brought her here, and she didn't want to leave alone.
Li Xiaoxiao's words made Tang Xiuwen's face turn blue and red, and she felt embarrassed. When she heard Qiao Yueru's words, she wanted to stand up.
But after twisting his fat body twice, he couldn't stand up.
When she first entered the Marquis's Mansion, she also had a graceful figure and a slender waist.
Her father was a teacher. At that time, Si Chengxu's great-grandmother, seeing that her family background was clean, brought her into the mansion and made her a concubine for Si Chengxu's grandfather.
For a teacher's daughter to become a concubine of a marquis was considered a great fortune in their village.
When she entered the Marquis' Mansion, she saw so many delicious foods, many of which were good things she had never seen before.
I suddenly began to let myself go, enjoying delicacies that I had never dared to think of before. I was young then, but even if I ate a lot, I didn't gain much weight. After I had children, I started to gain weight.
By the time she gave birth to her third child, her weight had reached 150 kilograms and her body was seriously deformed. It was difficult to lose weight at this time. In addition, she was a glutton, so her weight not only did not decrease, but continued to increase.
Later, the old marquis passed away. Without the person she cared about, her weight soared to 180 kilograms.
She couldn't get up at this moment, so she had to call a few servants, who brought a wooden board and asked her to lie flat on it. The servants were thinner than each other these days, and the board, together with the other servants, weighed more than 200 pounds. It took a lot of effort to lift her up.
There were four people carrying Tang Xiuwen, each carrying one corner. Qiao Yueru followed closely beside them, and reminded them: "Be careful not to fall."
In ancient times, there were thresholds at the doors of wealthy families' houses. Several servants carried the thresholds on their shoulders and walked carefully. In addition, the door was narrow. After the two servants in front passed by, Qiao Yueru saw that they were struggling to lift the threshold, so she wanted to walk in the middle and lift it a little.
Who would have thought that he was walking just fine when he tripped over something and fell towards Tang Xiuwen. The next second he was lying on the doorstep, blocking the way of the two servants behind him. The two servants in front of him didn't know about it and continued to walk forward, so they could no longer hold on to the wooden board in their hands.
The two servants at the back stared with wide eyes in horror as the wooden board fell down. By the time the people in the front noticed it, it was too late. As Qiao Yueru was lying on the doorstep, the wooden board above her hit her back hard.
Before Tang Xiuwen could figure out what was going on, her body fell to one side, and two terrified female voices rang out almost at the same time.
It was only a few seconds, and Li Xiaoxiao quietly withdrew his hand and looked at the chaos at the door with interest.
Qiao Yueru felt that she was having difficulty breathing, with the wooden board and Tang Xiuwen pressing on her body. Seeing this scene, several servants were frightened and hurriedly lifted Tang Xiuwen up again.
"Are you looking for death?" Tang Xiuwen cursed angrily. Not only did her tailbone hurt, but her waist had been twisted in the chaos and it was burning with pain again.
What bad luck had she had today? Misfortunes happened one after another, and she felt like crying.
Qiao Yueru was not in a much better condition at this time. She lay on the ground for a long time and couldn't get up. When Wang Qiuhuo came back, she saw this scene.
After lunch, Li Xiaoxiao was invited to the place where she had agreed to meet Zhou Lingfei. The ladies in ancient times knew how to enjoy themselves. In winter, the lake froze, so in order to go swimming in the lake, they would have people break the ice in advance.
Zhou Lingfei had not come when she arrived. This pleasure boat was two-story and finely crafted, with intricately carved mahogany railings, embroidered patterns of music, chess, calligraphy and painting on the sails, and a lifelike phoenix carved on the bow, symbolizing good luck and auspiciousness.
Once you enter the pleasure boat, you will see exquisite mahogany furniture, screens carved with images of mountains and flowing water, quaint desks and sophisticated carpets, all of which reveal that the owner of the pleasure boat must be an elegant person.
Just as she came in, Zhou Lingfei also came in. Zhou Lingfei had been a daughter of an official family since she was young, and she was also very beautiful. Her beauty was different from Li Xiaoxiao's. She had the feeling of a beautiful girl from a small family.
"Sister, how long have you been here?" Zhou Lingfei walked forward with a smile and affectionately took Li Xiaoxiao's arm.
"I just arrived too. Is it cold on the road?" Li Xiaoxiao asked with a smile.
"It's not cold. My mother asked me to wear more clothes when I went out," Zhou Lingfei pulled Li Xiaoxiao to sit down together. There was a charcoal fire burning in the houseboat, and it was warm.
"Sister, are you really from a peasant family? I don't dislike your background, I'm just curious about how you have so many. It's amazing. If you compare yourself with Cheng Yun'er, I believe you are no worse than her."
Zhou Lingfei asked in admiration. Not only her, many people probably thought so.
"Of course, I grew up in the village, and I learned these by chance later. It's nothing," Li Xiaoxiao said modestly.
Although he said this, he didn't think so in his heart. Take the Zhenlong chess game for example. Unless one has very high chess skills, it is difficult for ordinary people to solve it.
"No wonder Qiao Yueru calls everyone a country bumpkin. She looks down on people and often follows Wang Qiuhuo to attend young ladies' parties. It's rare for anyone to pay attention to her. She's just an annoyance," Zhou Lingfei curled her lips when mentioning Qiao Yueru, looking down on her from the bottom of her heart.
"She is just an insignificant person. I have things to do and don't have time to deal with her," Li Xiaoxiao picked up the teacup on the table and poured a cup for himself and Zhou Lingfei.
"Sister, what can you do for me?"
"Oh, it's like this, I want to open a restaurant in the capital."
