Chapter 131: Lu Yuanxia's Calculation
"Great mother, I finally caught that little bitch! Now I don't have to marry to the city lord's mansion!" Xiao Jixiang was so excited that he almost jumped up.
If she was so proud when she got engaged, how frightened she was when she found out the truth later.
She, Xiao Jixiang, is a legitimate daughter of the Xiao family. She has no shortage of talent and family background. Why should she marry a loser!
So what if that's the city lord's son? He's not a loser!
Such a waste is no match for that bitch Xiao Ruyi!
But Xiao Ruyi dared to escape! She didn't even think about her identity.
A bitch who has no mother and is not loved by her own father!
Obviously it would be good to get married with her status, but she still dared to escape!
When she learned the news, she was extremely panicked, fearing that she would marry into the city lord's mansion.
It's fine now. Xiao Ruyi is back. With Xiao Ruyi going to the City Lord's Mansion to marry that loser for her, she doesn't have to worry anymore.
"Calm down, look at you, you don't look like a wealthy lady." Lu Yuanxia glanced at her daughter, her eyes full of doting.
"Bring her back quickly, if she is allowed to escape again, all of you will die." Lu Yuanxia doted on her daughter and never showed any mercy towards others.
"It's madam, please pass on the message." The person who informed the news immediately took the order and left.
"You all, please step aside." Xiao Jixiang glanced at the maids around him, and then asked them to step aside impatiently.
The maids obediently withdrew and helped the mother and daughter close the door.
"Mom, now that Xiao Ruyi is back, should we get married? I'm worried that things will change if we wait too long." Xiao Jixiang said to her mother impatiently.
"Mom understands that as soon as Xiao Ruyi comes back, she will go to the city lord's palace to discuss the replacement and fix the wedding date." Lu Yuanxia already had a plan.
"But what if the City Lord's Mansion disagrees? Neither Xiao Ruyi nor your daughter or I would choose Xiao Ruyi." Xiao Jixiang proudly puffed up his chest.
Lu Yuanxia also looked at her beloved daughter with pride.
Regardless of appearance or talent, her daughter is better than Long Yulian's daughter.
This is what makes her most proud and proud.
She lost to Long Yulian when she competed for Xiao Guang. Even if she won back later, there was still a thorn in her heart.
Now that her daughter is better than Long Yulian's daughter in everything, she finally feels at ease in her heart.
"Don't worry, the city lord's youngest son has become a waste now, and the city lord just wants to find someone to take care of his son.
As long as she is the legitimate daughter of our Xiao family, it doesn't matter who she marries." Lu Yuanxia said with confidence.
A few days later, the Xiao family returned to the Xiao family with "Xiao Ruyi" and "Shui Bo".
After the two were brought back to the Xiao family, they were not immediately brought to Lu Yuanxia, but were imprisoned in the Xiao family's water prison.
Lu Yuanxia made up her mind to make Xiao Ruyi suffer a lot so that she would never dare to resist her stepmother again.
'Xiao Ruyi' and 'Shui Bo' who were imprisoned in the water prison, namely Xu Tao and Pei Xiyun, hid in the White Tiger Secret Realm when no one was paying attention.
Eating the spiritual fruits and drinking the spiritual brew in the secret realm is so satisfying.
Fortunately, because the environment of this water prison is too harsh, no one usually comes here, so the two of them don't need to worry about being discovered.
When the Xiao family entered the water prison again three days later, what they saw was the extremely weak master and servant of 'Xiao Ruyi'.
‘Uncle Shui’ was temporarily taken away, while ‘Xiao Ruyi’ was dragged in front of Lu Yuanxia.
Looking at 'Xiao Ruyi' lying on the ground like a dead dog, Lu Yuanxia's mother and daughter felt a sense of joy in their hearts at the same time.
"Run away, you are running away, do you think you can escape!
I'm wronging you by asking you to marry into the city lord's palace!
If the city lord's son is willing to marry you, that is a blessing you earned in your previous life. This kind of blessing is something ordinary people can't even imagine.
That is to say, I gave you this good marriage for the sake of being a member of the Xiao family. If you have any conscience, just marry me honestly and don't embarrass your father."
Lu Yuanxia held the tea in her hand, took a sip, and said with an expression on her face: "I am doing this for your own good."
"I don't dare ask for this kind of blessing. Since this marriage is so good, why don't you let your own daughter go?
Don’t think that I don’t know that the city lord’s palace is originally interested in Xiao Jixiang. It’s because you are unwilling to let your daughter marry a loser, so you put this unwanted marriage on me!”
'Xiao Ruyi' smiled coldly and tore through the fig leaf of the mother and daughter with one word.
"How dare you! How dare you talk to me, your aunt, like this!" Lu Yuanxia was so angry that she threw the tea cup at 'Xiao Ruyi'.
‘Xiao Ruyi’ rolled to the side and successfully avoided the teacup attack.
"How dare you hide!" Xiao Jixiang pointed at 'Xiao Ruyi' with a look of disbelief.
In the past, Xiao Ruyi was just a blockhead and never dared to resist when bullied.
This time I became more courageous when I went out!
"I'm not stupid. How could I be stupid enough to let her smash the teacup?" "Xiao Ruyi" gave her a big eye roll. Do you think I'm stupid?
"What's going on? I heard the noise from you all the way here." Xiao Guang, the head of the Xiao family, dressed in rich clothes, walked in with his hands behind his back.
Xiao Guang is a handsome middle-aged man who looks to be in his forties.
Although he looks like a middle-aged man, his good looks are not bad.
But I also knew that if he was too low-looking, he would not be able to defeat Long Yulian's group of suitors and win the beauty back.
"Dad, look at Sixth Sister, it was okay for her to run away from her marriage, but now that she is back, she has become more courageous and dares to talk back to her mother!" Xiao Jixiang immediately took Xiao Guang's hand and started to complain.
"Ruyi." Hearing this, Xiao Guang looked at his daughter with a complicated expression.
"Okay, I'll take her away, and I'll talk to her." Xiao Guang turned to Xiao Jixiang and his daughter and said.
"Master, wait a moment, don't forget what I told you before." Lu Yuanxia reminded in a low voice.
Xiao Guang nodded, indicating that he could not forget it, and asked two little maids to help Xiao Ruyi go.
Seeing the father and daughter walking away, Lu Yuanxia snorted coldly and asked the servants to retreat.
"Mom, dad won't be reluctant to let go, right?" Xiao Jixiang was a little worried.
"Don't worry, I don't know who your father is yet.
I have already told your father about you and Mr. Yuwen, and your father knows how to choose." Lu Yuanxia had a confident smile on her face.
"Mom, I haven't settled matters with Young Master Yuwen yet. Isn't it a bit early for you to talk to dad now?" Xiao Jixiang was afraid that if this matter didn't work out, wouldn't it be a slap in the face?
Lu Yuanxia gave her daughter a reassuring look and said, "Don't worry, even if you and Mr. Yuwen fail to make things happen in the end, by then the rice will be enough and Xiao Ruyi will have been married into the city lord's palace.
Even if your father knows the truth, he can't bring you back."
