Chapter 149: Chapter 150 Keep the Rhythm, Start Scolding!_1
Qiao Duo’er curled her lips, "I thought they wouldn’t dare to come. Just wait, I’ll go deal with them!"
Having said that, she picked up the small stones that Da Ya and Er Ya played with and went out.
These little stones could be used to play the "Catch the Dog" game, where each person had an equal number of stones to place on the ground. They decided the order by playing rock-paper-scissors. Then, when it was someone’s turn, they would throw a stone into the air and try to catch more from the ground while catching the one they just threw. Whoever was successful kept the stones they caught.
Da Ya was quick with her hands and had accumulated a pile of stones at home.
Qiao Duo’er didn’t play games; instead, these smoothly ground stones were handy as hidden weapons.
Before long, Qiao Duo’er stood at the doorway of the east wing room.
She casually surveyed the people standing in the courtyard with a look as if she were eyeing cabbages.
No, these people were worse than cabbages; at least cabbages could be eaten. They were, at best... four rotten cabbages.
"Who said they wanted to beat up my husband?"
Qiao Duo’er asked coolly.
"It’s not just Tan Zhenghong. I’ll beat you up as well!"
Xiao Lingchuan said irritably. How could someone from the Xiao Family let an ugly freak bully them?
But despite that ugly freak being ugly, those eyes were lively and captivating. When meeting her gaze, those coarse words simply couldn’t come out.
Qiao Duo’er scoffed, "Even hitting women, are you still a man?"
"You go deal with Tan Zhenghong. I alone can handle this ugly bitch," Zheng Shi said with a stern face.
Men hitting women wasn’t quite honorable when heard by others; she had to consider her son’s reputation.
After all, Qiao Duo’er was as skinny as a beanpole; one of her was more than enough to handle Qiao Duo’er.
Qiao Duo’er blinked, "Old Granny, you’re getting on in years. Just stay home and rest. Leave the fighting to the younger folks. What if you accidentally kick the bucket?"
Wouldn’t they blame her? And then expect her to pay silver? How would that be fair to her?
She thought Xiao Lingchuan was quite good – durable!
"Who are you calling ’Old Granny’!"
Zheng Shi glared. She had married early and given birth early; she was just over forty years old! 𝘯𝑜𝘷𝘱𝘶𝑏.𝘤𝘰𝑚
Qiao Duo’er gave her a look as if she were looking at an idiot, "Can’t you see for yourself? Aren’t you the oldest one here?"
Zheng Shi wished she could burn holes through Qiao Duo’er with her glare, but Qiao Duo’er was unfazed.
She continued, "Are you the Devout Granny? Sigh, you’re doing wrong by doing this. No matter what, Xiao Biyu is still your daughter. Why do you treat your own child like this?"
Devout Grannies were women who ran Qin Lou Chu Court, facilitating sexual transactions, also known as ’procurers.’
Qiao Duo’er felt like Zheng Shi came here looking to pimp someone out with her actions.
"You... you..." Zheng Shi was so angry she couldn’t speak coherently.
Members of the Tan Family also came out to watch the fun.
The Tan Family and the Xiao Family used to be neighbors, and both families’ mistresses were not easy to get along with, often quarreling over trivial things, leading to a long-standing poor relationship between the two families.
However, after the Xiao Family rose in prominence, Wang Clan had always been suppressed by Zheng Shi, and she had been seething with resentment for years.
Now seeing Zheng Shi put in her place, Wang Clan was in high spirits.
Hmm... it was the first time she felt Qiao Duo’er’s fierceness was quite good.
Keep up this pace and give her a good scolding!
"My mother is still your elder, and this is how you speak to her? Today I’ll have to educate you on behalf of your parents, you uncultured creature!"
Xiao Lingchuan was impulsive. Seeing his mother and sister being insulted, he exploded immediately.
