Chapter 998: It turns out that they are pretending to be pigs and eating tigers
Someone else asked Qiao Xuan with a smile: "Mrs. Shao, do you think this is true?"
Qiao Xuan smiled, "That's right. As a good wife, the first thing you should do is to be careful with your words. Remember not to make trouble out of nothing. As the saying goes, disaster comes from the mouth. If you bring disaster upon yourself because of your quick words, it's not worth it! This is my little opinion, I don't know if it's right!"
When these words came out, everyone was startled. Three or four people's faces changed.
Everyone looked at each other in disbelief.
They deliberately excluded her and said a lot of sarcastic words. Qiao Xuan just sat there without saying a word. In their eyes, she was pretending to be calm, but in fact she had already collapsed in her heart.
They looked down on her more and more, and became more and more jealous of her.
How could Shao Zhuangyuan deserve such a timid, stupid and taciturn concubine's daughter, even offend the Tian family and reject Miss Tian for her?
I didn't expect that he was pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger!
It would be fine if he didn't speak, but once he opened his mouth, every word was as sharp as a knife.
Madam Qin had a bad temper and was older than most of the people present. She was also a bit arrogant and took advantage of her age. She smiled coldly and stared at Qiao Xuan aggressively, "How can you say that? Madam Shao is so modest! It really opened our eyes. Madam Shao is really a person who can make a big splash if she doesn't make a big splash! But, why don't you just speak nicely? Even if you don't consider us, at least consider the host's face? Madam Lin is very attentive to the hospitality and does everything with care, but Madam Shao is being so treacherous and ruining the atmosphere and everyone's fun. I don't know why."
"I know your husband is a powerful man. Even the emperor protects him! But you shouldn't be so fearless and waste other people's love, right? I'm a person who speaks my mind. Even if you get angry and sue me, I'm not afraid!"
Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment.
I never expected Mrs. Qin to be so tough.
Most ladies knew that Mrs. Qin had a bad temper and liked to put on airs. She wanted others to flatter her wherever she went, and she especially liked to lecture others with righteous words.
Because her husband was a fifth-rank academician and the second-in-command of the Hanlin Academy, everyone generally gave her face. Over time, she became even more arrogant.
Unexpectedly, Mrs. Qin's old illness came back again, and it was so sharp.
Everyone was nervous and excited at the same time, and no one knew what this Mrs. Shao would do.
Qiao Xuan was speechless. That was right. What was wrong with her being sarcastic and mocking her? All those people had said before, one after another, which one was not a mockery directed at her?
Why are others allowed to mock her, but she is not allowed to say a word in return?
She finally realized that Madam Lin was instructed by the Tian family. Those people here were either from the Tian family faction or were narrow-minded and envious of her!
Qiao Xuan smiled and said, "I originally thought that Madam Qin was praising me, but it turns out she wasn't. But I really don't know what was wrong with what I said. Madam Qin, please enlighten me."
"You!" Mrs. Qin's face changed with anger. It had been many years since she had been confronted so harshly in public.
He immediately glanced at Qiao Xuan with contempt and sneered, "It turns out that you don't even have self-awareness. That's because you are stupid. Go back and read more books! But I have no obligation to teach you! There is no need to teach you anything! There is no need to talk too much, Xiaoxiang--"
