Chapter Twenty-Five: The Destruction of a Clan
Chapter 26
The two arrived at the Hanging Flower Gate, got into the carriage, and went straight to Sizhu Lane, where Yao Qingli lived.
Four Bamboo Laneββ
Qiuyun and Xia Er were busy setting up meals at the table, but Yao Qingli was in the bedroom, sitting on the bed, feeding Xiaobao porridge.
"Mother, I'm fine. Xiaobao looked at Yao Qingli with blank eyes.
"The fever has just subsided, and I need to rest again. Yao Qingli dug a spoonful of minced meat with a spoon, "Xiaobao doesn't like to eat porridge?"
"Like. Xiaobao nodded, but there was some anxiety in his eyes.
"Don't pretend to be good. Yao Qingli smiled and nodded the tip of his nose, Xiaobao has been eating porridge for so many days, and his mouth has long been tasteless! β
"Really?" Xiaobao's eyes lit up.
"Naturally. You eat porridge for a few more days first. β
"Bang bang bang-" was happy when there was a sudden bang on the door.
Xia Er and Qiu Yun reflexively shook their bodies, and Xia Er was even more frightened that her chopsticks fell.
"It's not out of luck, I'll drive it. The chopsticks in Yao Qingli's hand slapped on the table and stood up.
"It's cold outside. Xia Er hurriedly draped her coat over Yao Qingli.
Yao Qingli pulled up her coat and trotted out, Xia Er and Qiu Yun were not at ease, and hurriedly caught up with Yao Qingli.
When she opened the door, Yao Qingli saw Niangshan's slightly blue face, "Hehe, this is a gift of silver?
"Hmph!" Hate Yu pulled away from the fool and stepped forward, her little chin raised proudly, "You are so thick-skinned, you really want money?"
"Huh?" Yao Qingli was stunned and looked at Ha Yu in a daze.
"What are you staring at me for?"
"I didn't hear what you just said. Yao Qingli's eyes widened.
"Hmph, I mean you're so thick-skinned that you still want money. "Hate the jade, hehe.
"I'm thick-skinned?" Yao Qingli snorted, "It's you who are obviously thick-skinned, okay! The gambling contract you made didn't abide by! Backtracking, this is Yao Yingying's style?"
"You-" Hate Yu also came back to his senses, and his face turned blue and white for a while.
"Miss. Seeing Yao Qingli's arrogant attitude, she was a little timid, but she still had to bring the words, "My young lady's bracelet is already worth a lot of money." β
"I'm sorry!" Xia Er stepped forward with a snort, "That bracelet, no matter how you look at it, it looks like four or five hundred taels, and it has already made you worth a thousand taels, taking advantage of it." The remaining two thousand taels, you still rely on it, do you want to be ashamed?"
Crazy Shan's face turned red, and she said softly: "Miss, you are a weak woman, you can't fight the powerful." Four or five hundred taels is enough for ordinary people to live most of their lives. If I were you, I would have taken this bracelet, sold the silver and left Beijing, and found a small place that no one knew to spend the rest of my life. β
"Unfortunately, you're not me. Yao Qingli leaned against the door, her red lips curled, and her slender fingers ran boringly around a strand of hair on her chest.
"You-" Crazy little face turned blue.
"I don't know what to do!" Hate Yu snorted coldly, "Say the last time, if you are interested, you will accept it when you see it." Otherwise, you do so at your own risk. β
"I warn you one last time. Yao Qingli pursed her lips, "Send the money before evening, otherwise, you will bear the consequences." β
"Let's go!"
