Xiao Zhenhai looked at her indifferently. Lian Shiya only felt a cold wind blowing past her. Knowing that she had spoken incorrectly, she quickly lowered her head in fear.
"Ya Er, don't interrupt uncle when he speaks. Hurry up and kneel down." Madam Xiao pinched Lian Shiya's wrist and scolded her in a low voice.
Lian Shiya hurriedly knelt down. "Uncle, Ya Er is wrong, you shouldn't interrupt."
"Big brother taught a lesson right away. It was because little sister wasn't calm enough and had been tricked by this little slut time and time again. In the future, she will definitely learn from her mistakes and won't disappoint big brother."
"Now, all of you have the same rank and position. I want you to sit as Lian Yanqing's wife for a short period of time and truly wield great power in the Residence of Prime Minister." Those words came out of Xiao Zhenhai's mouth as his eyes emitted a dangerous aura.
The Xiao family's people trembled as they looked at Xiao Zhenhai and said, "If it were in the past, little sister would have agreed immediately, but …" Lian Ru Yue has always been a hindrance, she is no longer the person Big Brother saw before. "
"Hmph …" Xiao Zhenhai snorted coldly and said, "You little brat. You made me make you tremble with fear. You are not worthy to be a member of my Xiao family!"
"…" The Xiao Clan member lowered his head in rebuke.
"Five days later, I want to hold a celebratory banquet in the manor. At that time, I want to see how powerful she is to make you afraid!" Seeing that the fighting spirit of the Xiao family was not as strong as it used to be, Xiao Zhenhai wanted to see the current Lian Yue even more. "A direct daughter shouldn't be afraid. To you, the most important thing is to have a son.
Ever since she gave birth to Lian Shiya, she had taken up the majority of Lian Yanqing's favors. However, she had not seen any news of this belly, which had already become a sore point in her heart. Now that Xiao Zhenhai mentioned it, her heart felt even heavier.
"You and Lady Dong have studied medicine. How are you doing? Has the monthly practice of applying medicine been carried out on time? " It was also Xiao Zhenhai's instruction that Lian Shiya would become a medicine girl that helped the world through a hanging pot, different from the one that was given to her by Lian Shiya. It was he who sent Senior Servant Dong to her as an ordinary Senior Servant.
Lian Shiya's eyes flashed with a hint of guilt as she lowered her head and said, "Ya'er follows to study every day. Lady Dong said that my medical skills have improved greatly. However, because Lian Ruyue tried to stop me, Grandmother did not allow me to practice medicine anymore. " Seeing Xiao Zhen Hai frown, she immediately said, "However, don't worry uncle, I will start again on the fifteenth of this month."
She thought to herself that since she was already the county governor, her grandmother would definitely not disagree with continuing to practice medicine at the gate of the Prime Minister's Estate.
"Apart from your medical skills, as well as your calligraphy and calligraphy skills, you must train hard in every single one of them. When the time comes to consider the matter of marriage, you must be worthy of the prince with the most influence." This was Xiao Zhenhai's most basic requirement for Lian Shiya.
Even Shiya couldn't help but blush when she heard this. If she were to be matched with the most powerful prince, then she wouldn't have to care about all ten princes when the time came.
After leaving Lian Yan Qing's study, Lian Shiya breathed a sigh of relief and whispered, "Mother, Uncle is really scary, much more frightening than Father. When he was angry just now, I thought he would ignore me."
A trace of an unfathomable smile appeared on the corners of the Xiao family's lips. "Don't worry. Your uncle won't give up on you no matter what."
"Why? In the past, what Mother was worried about the most was that Uncle would just let us be as we please, right? " Lian Shiya didn't understand where the Xiao Clan's sudden firm confidence came from.
"Let's go see Rou Er. After her accident, we haven't gone to see her yet."
"Alright." Even Shi Ya didn't ask any further as she followed the Xiao family to Xiao Rou's Yi Cui Courtyard.
However, before he could even get close, he heard a burst of wailing and begging.
"Miss, have mercy, have mercy …"
"Miss, I beg of you, spare me …"
What was going on? As she walked in, she saw two maids kneeling on the ground, begging for help. Their hair was messy, and strands of hair were cut off on the ground. Their faces were covered in deep bloody wounds, and blood was flowing all over them, making them look extremely terrifying.
As for the person who was expressionlessly slashing his knife across their faces, it was — Xiao Rou.
The mother and daughter were both shocked by the scene in front of them. What happened to Xiao Rou? Why did he do such a bloody and terrifying thing?
"F * ck off." Xiao Rou slowly raised her head and waved her hands. The two maidservants hurriedly stood up and ran out, their bodies covered in blood.
Xiao Rou's ice-cold gaze looked at Aunt Xiao and Lian Shiya as she lightly said, "Aunt and Cousin are here."
Lian Shiya finally recovered from her shock and a warm smile intentionally appeared on her face. She walked over and called out, "Cousin …"
When she saw that there was only one leg left under Xiao Rou's skirt and that there was nothing on the other side, she couldn't help but take a step back. A look of astonishment flashed across her face.
After the Xiao family lightly bumped into her from behind, she hurriedly said, "Cousin, let's come over to see you." Her eyes flickered. She didn't even dare to look at Xiao Rou because she only had one leg left. It was truly terrifying. It made her … I can't look straight at it.
What use was it for a woman to be bestowed the title of Prefecture Lord if her legs were not even in order?
Xiao Rou said coldly, "Now that you have seen it, what do you feel?"
"…" Her words immediately caused the Xiao family and Lian Shiya to be stunned. The two of them looked at each other in dismay.
Xiao Rou, who was leaning on her walking stick, laboriously stood up.
The Xiao family's people reacted first. They walked over and supported Xiao Rou as they cried, "Rou Er, Rou Er! I have long heard about your injuries. My aunt is always thinking about it, and thinking about you makes her so distressed that she can't sleep at night and doesn't even know what to eat. It's just that the people from the Prime Minister's residence didn't want us to come to the Xiao family, so we dragged this out until today! Rou Er, your aunt truly loves you. Tell me, what can your aunt do for you, my Rou Er. "
"Yeah! Cousin Rou'er, when I heard that something happened to you, I was also burning with anxiety. I really wanted to come over immediately to take a look. Cousin, I also want to help you with something. Even Shiya began to shed tears as she spoke from the bottom of her heart.
"Whap." Xiao Rou threw the bloodstained dagger in her hands next to Aunt Xiao's feet. "Cut off Lian Rue's legs and give them to me as a pillow."
As she spoke, her expression was cold and her voice didn't have a trace of warmth. She emitted a sinister and frightening aura. How was this still the delicate and pretty Xiao Rou? From the looks of it, she was a man-eating demon.
"Rou Er, why don't I cut off her legs for you? It's just that … "You have to wait a little longer. Don't worry, your aunt will definitely take revenge for you. I will make her days at Lian Family will not be easy. Don't worry." The Xiao family's old patriarch was stunned for a moment, then said with a trace of coldness in the corner of his eyes.
Cousin Rou'er, even Ru Yue is our greatest enemy, and now that she has harmed you to such a degree, we will definitely not let her go. Let alone cutting off her legs for you, she cut off her eyes, tongue, muscles and bones.
She was happier than anyone else when she heard that Xiao Rou hated Lian Yue so much. Moreover, she believed that Xiao Rou would be a good ally.
