Chapter 17 They Can't Beat Fang
Niu and Ma were choked and stared.
Fang laughed again and said, "It's just a misunderstanding between the sisters. The second and third sister-in-law came to our house angrily and said a lot of nonsense. What are they doing? Qiao, tell them what's going on!"
The more they belittled Qiao Xuan, the more Fang would praise her.
Fang was so smart. She could see that her daughter-in-law was a capable person. She had been fighting alone for so many years and now she finally had a helper. Of course she would not give up.
"Yes, mother." Qiao Xuan smiled and nodded, and she spoke clearly and quickly.
Fang sneered with satisfaction: "Second sister-in-law, third sister-in-law, did you hear clearly? You should also control Meiling and Xiaozhi. It's not good for a girl to be so domineering all the time!"
Ma's face turned ugly: "Qiao is just talking nonsense! Xiaozhi didn't say that!"
Niu was smarter than Ma. She glared at Shao Taotao and snorted, "So it's Taotao's fault! Taotao, this is not right. You gave gifts to your sisters and then turned around and said that your sisters bullied you. How can this be! You are not a child anymore, and it's unacceptable for a girl to be full of lies!"
Shao Taotao was angry: "I didn't!"
"Oh, you dare to talk back to your elders! Look at yourself, sister-in-law! You need to teach me a lesson!"
Shao Meiling and Shao Meizhi immediately followed Niu's words and insisted that the silk flowers were given to them by Shao Taotao first, and she must have regretted it later and said that they had stolen them.
Ma also joined in, and the four of them took turns talking, saying that Shao Taotao was as bad as they could.
Shao Taotao was so anxious that she was about to cry, but she had no idea what was going on. Her repeated sentences of "I didn't!" and "No!" were pale and powerless, and she was no match for them at all.
Even Fang was so angry that her face turned pale.
Qiao Xuan: "Second Aunt, Third Aunt, Taotao won't give it to them. This is a meeting gift from me to Taotao. Taotao will naturally cherish it. Besides, she likes the pair of silk flowers very much. How could she give it away in less than half a day?"
Niu sneered and rolled her eyes: "Meiling, Xiaozhi, are you wrong?"
Qiao Xuan: "What Taotao said can't be wrong! You weren't there, so why do you think Taotao is lying?"
Fang sneered: "That's right! I believe my daughter!"
Qiao Xuan: "Meiling and Xiaozhi are not young anymore, don't they understand this? Even if Taotao said it was for them, they shouldn't have accepted the gift I gave to them."
Shao Meiling: "Taotao didn't say it was a meeting gift."
Qiao Xuan: "Then why don't you ask?"
Shao Taotao: "I said it!"
Shao Meiling: “.”
Fang sneered: "Second sister-in-law, third sister-in-law, do you have any objections? If not, then leave. If you delay my cooking, you won't have dinner tonight! You can cook at home!"
Niu and Ma were very angry.
This is originally a matter of each having his own reasons. Whoever knows how to make a fuss and can make a fuss will be the final winner.
Obviously, they couldn't defeat Fang.
Even if you don't lose, you don't win either.
It is impossible to take things back from Fang.
And as for Ms. Qiao, Ms. Niu was even more angry. She was the county magistrate's daughter, but she was so sharp-tongued and had no manners at all. Bah!
Oh, it seems that's no wonder. I heard from Liu Lang that she is just a concubine's daughter whose mother died. What good can there be about her?
However, thinking about the twenty-six dowries, Niu still felt very jealous.
