Chapter 292 Never mind

Xie Qingran took the little girl's hand and began to introduce her to everyone, afraid that they wouldn't recognize her, as she was the only young lady of the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion.

Everyone noticed that Xiao Yanran's demeanor and speech were quite different from before, and they all sighed that Xie Qingran knew how to raise a child.

"Xiao Yanran, the next race is about to start. You're so good, how about we try riding a horse together?"

Zhao Lulu finally couldn't take it anymore and walked over to provoke Xiao Yanran.

In the past, Xiao Yanran would never have dared to look at Zhao Lulu even twice, but now, she is no longer afraid!

"Okay, but if we're going to participate, we can't go without a prize, right?"

"Miss Zhao, what do you want to bet?"

Xiao Yanran immediately stood up and looked at Zhao Lulu, meeting her disdainful gaze.

Zhao Lulu had never seen that look in her eyes before.

She looked at Xiao Yanran in disbelief, feeling that this timid and cowardly little girl seemed a little different from before.

"Haven't you always liked my glass lamp?"

"If you win, I'll give it to you!"

Zhao Lulu snorted and just stared at Xiao Yanran.

"Alright, you've always liked my precious gold lock, haven't you? If you win, I'll give it to you too!"

Xiao Yanran immediately spoke up, and the two began to clash.

Seeing this, Xie Qingran smiled and said, "That's how a young lady should be. She can't back down. Yanran, just go ahead and fight well!"

"yes!"

Xiao Yanran immediately stood up, and then Yu Huan stepped forward and rolled up her clothes, afraid that it would make it inconvenient for her to move around.

Soon, the polo match began.

They were all children, so the difficulty level wasn't that high. But Zhao Lulu was determined to seize this opportunity to steal the spotlight, so she was fierce and aggressive as soon as she stepped onto the stage.

During this time, Xiao Yanran has been practicing martial arts with her master, and her strength and agility have greatly improved. Even her archery skills are no worse than those of her older brothers.

They are now truly invincible on the polo field.

"Well done!"

Xie Qingran watched as Xiao Yanran scored the goal and laughed out loud with joy.

Zhao Lulu was already angry, but she didn't expect to be at a disadvantage even in her best sport, polo.

Her expression immediately changed, and she turned her horse around, slamming the polo mallet in her hand hard into Xiao Yanran's horse's leg.

"ah!"

Xiao Yanran lost her balance and fell off the horse, screaming in pain.

"Yanran!"

Xie Qingran quickly ran off the field.

Everyone stood up and gathered around.

Upon seeing this, Madam Zhao immediately said, "It's all the horse's fault! Quickly check if it's hurt."

The doctor arrived quickly and, after examining the patient, said that the bone in his arm was fractured and he needed to rest properly.

Xie Qingran looked at Zhao Lulu with a dark expression: "How do you explain this?"

"My mother said it's all the horse's fault!"

"Does the Duchess of Zhenguo think I did this on purpose?"

Zhao Lulu didn't even dismount; she just sat on the horse, coldly watching Xie Qingran with a look of resentment.

"Sister-in-law, she did it on purpose! She hit me with a golf club!"

Xiao Yanran got up from the ground and quickly walked to Xie Qingran's side, enduring the pain to defend herself.

Seeing her child so boldly defend himself, Xie Qingran was very satisfied.

She smiled at Madam Zhao and Zhao Lulu: "So you two mean that all of this is because the horse was being unreasonable?"

"Yes, it's this horse that's being unreasonable!" Zhao Lulu said before Madam Zhao could.

very good!

Xie Qingran turned around and smiled at Xiao Yanran, then stepped forward, drew a short knife from her sleeve, and plunged it fiercely into the horse's neck.

The horse let out a miserable cry and crashed straight down.

"ah!"

My leg!

Zhao Lulu was immediately pinned under the horse.

"Lulu!"

"Xie Qingran, you!"

Upon seeing this, Zhao Yuanqi rushed over and shoved Xie Qingran aside.

"Lulu is just a child, how can you be so vicious?"

Xie Qingran staggered for a moment, then regained her balance and said coldly, "I was just punishing a beast, why are you so agitated, General Zhao?"

With that, Xie Qingran took off the ring from her hand and threw it into Zhao Yuanqi's arms: "Since General Zhao is so distressed, I'll give it to you as compensation!"

Xie Qingran didn't even glance at Zhao Yuanqi again, completely ignoring Zhao Lulu's cries behind her, and just looked at Xiao Yanran: "How is it, are you satisfied?"

"Waaah, sister-in-law!"

"It hurts so much!"

Xiao Yanran was in a fit of anger, so she didn't feel the pain in her arm at all.

Now that I've relaxed, I just burst into tears.

Xie Qingran felt a pang of heartache, stepped forward, picked up Xiao Yanran, and smiled at Madam Hou: "Excuse me, I must take my leave now."

"Please take care, Madam Xie." Madam Hou had no intention of interfering in this matter; instead, she smiled at Xie Qingran.

She also felt that it was incredibly satisfying to do this!

"Xie Qingran, you stop right there! You hurt my child like this, are you just going to let it go like this?"

Madam Zhao turned pale with anger, strode forward, grabbed Xie Qingran's wrist, and stared intently at her.

Xie Qingran shrugged indifferently and then said, "Oh? How did I hurt your child? Didn't I just deal with a beast? As for the rest, Madam Zhao, aren't you misunderstanding something?"

"You!" Madam Zhao exclaimed angrily, "If you hadn't killed that horse, how could she have fallen!"

"That's right. If she hadn't hit my Yanran's horse's leg with the golf club, my Yanran wouldn't have fallen, would she?" Xie Qingran looked at her coldly: "What, you don't care whether other people's children live or die, but when it comes to your own child, you know right from wrong? Your child is a child, but the children of my Zhenguo Duke's Mansion aren't children?"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone turned to look at Madam Zhao.

If we really compare, Madam Zhao's status is not as good as Xie Qingran's now, and Zhao Lulu's status is even worse than Xiao Yanran's!

Madam Zhao belatedly looked at Xie Qingran, clenching her teeth: "You! Xie Qingran!"

"So what?" Xie Qingran stared coldly into Madam Zhao's eyes. "What can you do? What do you dare to do? Do you think our Duke Zhenguo's Mansion is just a freebie?"

"You!" Madam Zhao was so angry that she almost fainted.

Zhao Yuanqi quickly stepped forward and took Madam Zhao's arm: "Mother, never mind, never mind, let's check on my sister first."

"Xie Qingran, you've really gone too far. I won't hold it against you today because of the rush, but I will definitely settle this score with you!" Zhao Yuanqi rolled his eyes at Xie Qingran before pulling Madam Zhao away.
