Chapter 161: Cursing the Liu family for being shameless!

"Cao'er, since it's you, why don't you hurry up and tell your parents to let us go?"

"Yes, Grass, let us go quickly, and we won't hold what happened just now against you."

"Zhu'er is the best. After all, she is our family's bloodline. She came out to protect us even though she was seriously injured."

Although it was hard for them to accept that Liu Cao'er had become so beautiful, she still seemed to have the same weak and easily bullied personality as before, so they let it go.

After all, she was raised by the Liu family; how could they not know her?

In their eyes, 'Liu Cao'er' was just a donkey.

It won't hurt if you hit it, and it won't kill you if you scold it.

Even though she's now dressed up as a rich young lady, she's still a 'donkey' that's been enslaved by the Liu family!

Could she possibly go so far as to offend these former relatives again?

After all, she had heard from Sui'er's letter that the General's Mansion didn't care about her, Li Qingluo, at all. Her parents and brothers thought about her and doted on her, but it was their Zhu'er who they loved the most!

Even though she was her biological daughter, she never experienced the feelings of family after returning to the general's mansion.

Therefore, it still has to be the Liu family!

Moreover, she, 'Liu Cao'er', would definitely not abandon the kinship ties of her Liu family.

The Liu family members were secretly pleased with themselves and became quite smug.

The onlookers were all dumbfounded.

Both the real and fake heiresses of the Li family have appeared!?

This real heiress is indeed much more elegant, dignified, beautiful, and poised than the fake one!

As expected, it has to be a true blood relative. Look at how they've regained their composure after only a few months back.

On the contrary, this fake heiress used to be a famous noble lady in Jinling City. It is said that she was beautiful and elegant with a noble and otherworldly temperament, but now everyone sees her as just so-so.

Not only did he look haggard, but he was also so thin that he was almost unrecognizable. The way he had spoken so harshly just now made him look really ordinary!

Although she still has a pitiful and endearing appearance, anyone who isn't blind can see who truly possesses the air of a noble lady!

This Liu family is truly disgusting; the whole family is wicked and vicious, and utterly lacks self-awareness!

What do they think of Jinling City and the General's Mansion?

Are they just ordinary wealthy households in that mountain valley?

They actually dare to shout so arrogantly out of ignorance; they're really not afraid of death.

"But the real legitimate daughter won't really let them off the hook, will she..."

"She seems kind and easy to bully, but it's hard to say."

"She's so pitiful. She was harmed like this by the Liu family, and the General's Mansion didn't even bother to report it. I really don't know what they were thinking. It's a terrible tragedy!"

Li Qingluo looked at the absurdity before her and suddenly smiled.

"Are you finished talking?"

"If you have any other requests, please feel free to ask."

really?

The Liu family members looked at each other in bewilderment. Old Man Liu actually said, "Cao'er, then find us a house to stay in first!"

"Yes, yes, Grass, we've been traveling so far and we're so tired. It's so good to see you. Please find us a place to stay!"

Li Qinglu smiled and said, "How about we offer you accommodations at the General's Mansion?"

Liu San shouted, "That would be so embarrassing! But it's not impossible..."

"You scoundrel! Don't you know she was being sarcastic? You still want to live in the General's Mansion!" Liu Er slapped Liu San on the head and scolded him.

Liu Er was still relatively clear-headed, but he felt that something was wrong with what was happening.

Looking at Cao'er, it seems that not only has her appearance changed drastically, but her temperament has probably changed a lot as well.

Even though they've made such a scene, she can still talk to them calmly and collectedly.

The current situation seems like the calm before a storm; it's all too abnormal!

But now the whole family is so excited they can't contain themselves, and Liu Er can't stop them either.

Liu Da even yelled at Liu Er, "Her second uncle, what are you afraid of?! She's called me 'Dad' for ten years now. If it weren't for the fact that our Liu family has still given her a meal all these years, she would have died long ago. She has to serve us!"

"Yeah, second brother. Why did you hit me? Why did you hit me!"

“Even if this is the General’s Mansion, it’s still a place where human relationships matter, right? We can’t just sever the bond we’ve built with Cao’er over the years.”

"Pooh!"

Suddenly, a sharp shout rang out, and Que'er stood up with her hands on her hips, spitting fiercely on the ground.

"Your whole family has reached the pinnacle of shamelessness!"

"Why don't you all take a piss and look at yourselves first, see if you're even worthy of each other! You're talking about feelings with our girl? Don't you know how your Liu family has treated our girl all these years?"

"I think we should skin you alive first, and then see if you'll eat in prison or stay in those rooms!"

Zhao's face was fierce, as if she wanted to rush over: "Where did this brat come from?! If you dare to speak rudely again, we'll tear your mouth off!"

"With so many masters present, who gives you the right to speak?"

Sparrow: "Pah! You old slut! You kidnapped my daughter back then and made her suffer so much in your family for so many years, enduring all kinds of torment, being enslaved by your whole family like livestock. What was she like when she came home?"

"He's just skin and bones, his skin is rough and dark, and his hands, which he's worked on for over a decade, haven't fully recovered even now."

"But what about your daughter?"

"Not to mention the wealth and pampering she enjoyed in the General's Mansion, she was treated like royalty. I doubt she's ever even washed her face!"

"They never lift a finger, never lift a finger, and know nothing about farming! Yet they enjoy all the luxuries!"

"You've caused the true bloodline of the General's Mansion to suffer hardship while your own family lives a good life. Do you really think they're just objects, to be replaced or brought back whenever you want?!"

"It doesn't matter if you switch back and forth, or switch back again. Have you never had any emotions, never been sad, and never been hurt?"

"With your Liu family members committing such heinous crimes of insubordination, I think even if you all were beheaded, it wouldn't be enough to go around chopping off your heads!"

"Now that the young lady has returned home, she is the legitimate daughter of the General's Mansion. Who are you to call her Grandmother, Grandmother, and Grandfather? Bah!"

“Our General’s Mansion has its own matriarch, head of the family, and mistress!”

"You still dare to presume to call yourself master in front of me?!"

"A bunch of shameless, brazen, and disgusting bastards!"

The sparrow had a good scolding.

The crowd below all shouted in unison, "Good!"

Li Chaojing's face was gloomy as he stared at the scene before him, his thoughts unreadable.

But he did not stop Que'er's outrageousness, which clearly meant he tacitly approved of what she said when she stood up.

However, these words saddened Qu Shi deeply.

Those things hidden deep in her heart, she never dared to face them, and deceived herself time and time again with her biases, as if they had finally been torn apart by someone's clamor.

Did Luo'er never have a single good day while living in the Liu family?

She naturally had her doubts as well.

But she didn't dare ask.

In the days immediately following the revelation of their daughter's true and false identities, the entire household struggled to accept the truth.

After all, he had raised his daughter for over ten years, and suddenly she said she wasn't his biological daughter?

Zhu'er once said that the Liu family's letter made it clear that they had never been harsh on Luo'er for a single day.

She thought that no matter how bad the Liu family was, they would at least be as sincere as the Li family towards Zhu'er!

However, Madam Qu overlooked one thing: their General's Mansion did not know that Zhu'er was a child who had been switched at birth. They always thought she was their own child, so they pampered and spoiled her from a young age.

But Luo'er is different!

Luo'er was deliberately taken away by this wicked old woman from the very beginning...

At that moment, it felt as if something sharp had pierced Qu's heart.

She stared at Luo'er in a daze, her heart filled with immense pain.

How could the Liu family be happy to be humiliated like this?

Zhao was furious, her brows furrowed in anger. She opened her mouth and roared, "You lowly servant! Who instructed you to say these things?! You don't represent the general's mansion at all—"

"Her words naturally represent my meaning!"

Li Qingluo raised her voice and finally stopped pretending to be kind to them.

Her voice turned cold and hard, completely devoid of any of the warmth and affection she had just displayed.

At this moment, her expression also became much colder, and her eyes and brows were instantly filled with a superior and majestic aura.

"Furthermore, she is my personal maid, not some lowly servant! You are not even comparable to her, so why can't she reprimand you?!"

Zhao was utterly shocked: "You...you!? Liu Cao'er, how dare you!"

Li Qingluo walked forward slowly with her hands behind her back: "Why wouldn't I dare? Do you really think you're my grandmother?!"

"My own grandmother, born into the Pei State Duke's family, was once a powerful and renowned female general of the Great Liang Dynasty! Who are you to dare stand on the same level as my grandmother and be my 'grandmother'!?"

"Men, hold this old shrew down and slap her hard across the face!"

"Until I say stop!"

At Li Qingluo's command, the dozen or so maids who had followed her out immediately rushed down, led by Granny Deng.

Li Qingzhu, who had been watching coldly, suddenly straightened up and shouted, "Li Qingluo, I'm still here. What do you want?"

"They are my family after all. They were just saying a few words to you. If you don't want to listen, fine. Why are you arguing with them?"

"After all, they were once your family—"

"ah!"

Granny Deng rushed forward and grabbed Li Qingzhu, warning her coldly, "You'd better shut up! If you shout any louder with the Liu family again, this old servant will deal with you too!"

Granny Deng's fierce appearance really frightened Li Qingzhu.

Moreover, her injuries hadn't healed, and all she could do was howl, "Rebellion! Rebellion! Guards, guards, drag this wicked woman away—"

The onlookers couldn't help but cover their ears: "Her voice is so awful."

Li Qingzhu froze, her heart shattering at that moment.

Not only was she looked down upon by these lowly people, but the people she brought were also quickly pushed to the ground by these servants.

What kind of vulgar old hags are these maids?!

Before Li Qingzhu could stop them, she saw Granny Deng lead people over and slap Zhao Shi directly in the face.

"ah--"

Zhao screamed in pain as two slaps landed, leaving finger marks on her face and a cut on her lip.

Then several slaps began to fall in quick succession.

"Clap clap clap clap clap—"
