Chapter 213 Jedi Counterattack
"Okay, I'll listen to you. You're just a sweet talker." The old lady's mood instantly improved when she saw Li Xiaoxiao.
"Well, grandma, when I went out just now, Miss Zhou from the Censor's family sent someone to give me an invitation, wanting to invite me to go boating on the lake together. I came to see you first and will go later." Li Xiaoxiao didn't even bother to give them a glance, treating them as air.
"Really? No wonder you are dressed so beautifully today. It turns out you are going to a date with the daughter of the Censor, whose name seems to be Zhou Lingfei," the old lady thought for a while before going out with Cheng Menggu. When they came back, someone invited Xiaoxiao to go out for a walk.
It can be seen that Xiaoxiao really stole the show yesterday. She knew that Xiaoxiao was a capable person and she always had a good eye for people.
"Grandma has a good memory, that is Zhou Lingfei. I get along very well with her." Li Xiaoxiao praised.
"I've met that girl once. She's easy to get along with. You don't have a playmate in the capital, so you must spend more time with her in the future," the old lady smiled and patted Li Xiaoxiao's hand with a kind look on her face.
"Sister, I told you that she is unruly, and you still protect her. I'm a grown man, after all I'm her elder, and you don't even know how to behave politely," Tang Xiuwen felt jealous when she heard Zhou Lingfei invite Li Xiaoxiao to go out and play.
Qiao Yueru's face also looked unhappy. They had only met once, so how could Li Xiaoxiao catch Zhou Lingfei's eye? Zhou Lingfei rarely interacted with young ladies from official families, so why did she suddenly take the initiative to make friends with Li Xiaoxiao this time?
Qiao Yueru's face was distorted with resentment, unwillingness and jealousy.
"Grandma, who is this? Why is he so rude?" Li Xiaoxiao glanced at Tang Xiuwen.
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Tang Xiuwen suddenly got furious. How dare this little girl say that to her.
"Look at you. You're fat and strong. It would be a waste of your strength if you don't do hard labor," Li Xiaoxiao looked her up and down, making a clicking sound.
"What an uneducated thing she is, with such a foxy face. I wonder what shameful things she does behind my back..." Tang Xiuwen was so angry that she started cursing, saying all kinds of vicious words. Before she could finish her scolding.
Li Xiaoxiao raised her hand and slapped someone in the face. The scene became quiet for a moment. No one expected that she would actually hit someone.
Tang Xiuwen's face was hit crooked, and her fat little hands unconsciously touched her face. Her face was burning with pain, and it was obvious that Li Xiaoxiao had used all his strength.
After a long time, he slowly turned around and looked at Li Xiaoxiao in disbelief. Sparks of anger slowly gathered in his originally calm and narrow eyes, until they finally turned into rage.
"You dead girl, you actually dared to hit me, you're looking for death," Tang Xiuwen shouted angrily, and rushed towards Li Xiaoxiao. She was about 1.5 meters tall and weighed about 180 grams. Her body was as round as a ball, and she ran quite fast. In the blink of an eye, she came in front of Li Xiaoxiao and was about to knock her down.
Li Xiaoxiao suddenly stretched out a leg and kicked her hard in the stomach.
Tang Xiuwen couldn't dodge in time and was kicked hard in the stomach. She staggered back several steps and finally sat down on the ground. The pain from her tailbone made Tang Xiuwen wail in agony.
"Ouch, I'm almost dying from the fall, someone has been killed, Li Xiaoxiao has killed someone." Tang Xiuwen felt pain all over her body. She touched her tailbone with one trembling hand, and the pain made her grimace in pain.
Hearing the shouting, several servants outside rushed in. When they saw the scene, they were stunned. What was going on?
"Nothing, go out." The old lady was also shocked by Li Xiaoxiao's series of actions, but she reacted quickly. At the same time, she was secretly happy in her heart, thinking well done. Because of his status, Li Xiaoxiao did what she always wanted to do but could not do.
From now on, with Li Xiaoxiao around, no one will dare to bully her daughter anymore.
"Catch Li Xiaoxiao for me, she wants to kill someone," Tang Xiuwen started shouting as soon as she saw someone coming.
The servants looked at each other, not knowing what to do.
"Don't you want to listen to me?" The old lady glared at them.
Several servants immediately realized that Tang Xiuwen was just a concubine and of course had to listen to the old lady, so they left quickly.
Seeing this scene, Tang Xiuwen was so angry that she almost vomited blood. She wanted to stand up, but found that she couldn't move at all.
Her tailbone seemed to be getting more and more painful, and finally she just lay flat on the ground.
"Grandma, how are you?" Qiao Yueru asked softly when she saw her angry look.
Now, Wang Qiuhe couldn't just stand there and watch the show. She asked with concern, "Auntie, are you okay?"
Tang Xiuwen, lying on the ground, groaned in pain: "Why don't you go get me a doctor? Do you want to kill me with the pain?"
"Aunt, I'll send someone to call a doctor, he'll be here soon," Wang Qiuhe left, leaving Qiao Yueru alone.
She could feel that the old lady was looking at her with a fierce look. Actually, she knew that she was in the wrong about what happened yesterday. However, if it weren't for Li Xiaoxiao, she wouldn't have suffered such humiliation. So she should blame Li Xiaoxiao for everything.
"Li Xiaoxiao, your grandmother and I are of the same generation, so you should call me grandma. How dare you treat me like this? You are so bold and disrespectful to your elders. I will go to the government office to sue you and have the government put you in jail."
Tang Xiuwen even wanted to kill Li Xiaoxiao at this moment. She is already old, and she fell so hard today. She doesn't know if she can recover in the future.
"Grandma, this fat woman keeps saying that she is my elder. Who is she and why have I never seen her?" Li Xiaoxiao asked the old lady pretending to be ignorant.
"She was your grandfather's concubine in his early years, and she is also your uncle's biological mother," the old woman said indifferently.
"Oh, so she's just a concubine."
Li Xiaoxiao suddenly realized, and then said: "You are just a concubine, and you actually spoke wildly to me. You are so unruly."
In the official family, the relationship between legitimate and illegitimate children is clearly defined. The status of legitimate daughters and sons, even the children they give birth to, is higher than that of concubines. The status of concubines is slightly higher than that of maids. If they are not favored, they are not as good as maids.
Li Xiaoxiao kept calling Tang Xiuwen a concubine, which hit Tang Xiuwen right in the heart. She hated it most when people called her a concubine.
"I have been in the Marquis' Mansion for so many years and raised three children for the Mansion. It's a pity that the old Marquis died early, otherwise he would have promoted me to be his co-wife."
Tang Xiuwen actually found some plausible reasons for herself. In fact, the old marquis had only been dead for three years, and he had never promoted her to a co-wife for all these years. It would have been absolutely impossible if he were still alive.
But Tang Xiuwen had the nerve to say it out loud. She is truly shameless and unrivaled in the world.
