Chapter 360 Kneel Down
Seeing Li Jiaojiao, Ye Caiping couldn't help but curl up the corners of her lips.
She knew that as long as Li Jiaojiao came to the capital, they would definitely meet.
Li Jiaojiao's face didn't look very good.
Just Gu Han made her very wary.
But she could still control Gu Han, but she couldn't control Ye Caiping and the others.
Her maid Xiaolu snorted: "Hey, are you allowed to call my young lady by her maiden name? My young lady is - um!"
Before she could finish her words, Li Jiaojiao covered her mouth out of fear.
But we can’t let Ye Caiping know where she comes from, otherwise what if she comes to our house and says she’s been in jail?
Thinking of this, Li Jiaojiao's eyes suddenly lit up. That's right, Ye Caiping and her family don't know which noble lady she is from!
No matter how capable Ye Caiping is, she is just the king of the village or town.
This is the capital! In the eyes of the nobles, crushing a small businessman is just a matter of moving their fingers. And now, she is a noble lady who is high above everyone else!
Li Jiaojiao thought of the temple master's words again. As long as she held on to her mother, her life would be safe and smooth.
Then she will have nothing to worry about!
She raised her chin slightly, her expression cold and arrogant: "Oh, I was wondering who it was, it turned out to be you from the Ye family."
She stroked her hair so that Ye Caiping could see the sapphire hairpin on her head and the jade bracelet on her wrist.
Ye Jin'er and the others were stunned. What kind of luck did Li Jiaojiao have again? After being released from prison, he not only made it to Beijing, but also made so much money.
This outfit alone would cost at least a thousand taels.
The shocked looks of Ye Jiner and others made Li Jiaojiao feel proud and satisfied.
I couldn't help but look at them. What they were wearing... was silk, and they also had some gold ornaments on their heads and bodies.
It might look intimidating in that corner of Dashu Town, but this is the capital city!
Compared to her outfit, it's far inferior!
Li Jiaojiao sneered: "Merchants are merchants. They look shabby compared to us nobles."
Ye Jiner and others: "......"
Ye Caiping said with a smile: "Oh, when did you become a noble?"
"How dare you!" Xiaolu hurried to protect his master.
Just now, Li Jiaojiao covered her mouth, proving that the identity of the young lady of the Duke's Mansion cannot be revealed. Xiaolu didn't ask any more questions. She just listened to the young lady:
"Open your dog eyes and see clearly. The silk brocade that Miss is wearing is a reward from the palace. Only wives of officials of the fifth rank and above can wear it!"
"Forget it, Xiaolu." Li Jiaojiao raised her lips, "Even if I tell them, they won't understand."
Ye Caiping was not annoyed, and smiled and said, "Congratulations, you have become a noble lady. But you are wearing gold and silver and enjoying a good life in the capital, but does your mother who is beaten every day in your hometown know about it?"
When Zhang Shuiniang was mentioned, Li Jiaojiao's face changed drastically.
I feel both ashamed and guilty.
When she left home, she had secretly vowed that if she could make a name for herself one day, she would take her mother away from that hell.
But now...
After she acknowledged herself as the godmother, she deliberately tried to forget about it.
Because she knew that only as an orphan could she get more love from her godmother.
So she never cared about Zhang Shuiniang.
Li Jiaojiao said with a dark face: "Shut up! I've already sent someone to pick her up... This matter has nothing to do with you."
Xiaolu looked at her in confusion.
Didn’t they say that both the young lady’s parents are dead?
"I'll tell you about this later." Li Jiaojiao glanced at her, then looked at Ye Caiping: "I am a noble lady now. I can't be offended by a small businessman like you."
The implication was that if she wanted to kill her now, it would only take her a flick of her finger.
"Just now you didn't know my identity and didn't bow to me. I don't blame you. But now that you know, why don't you kneel down and kowtow to me?"
After saying that, she let out a long sigh of relief.
From the moment she became the third daughter of the Duke's Mansion, she had imagined the scene of meeting her enemy countless times. She had imagined these words countless times.
Now I can finally say it in one word: awesome!
Ye Jiner and Ye Huaner: "Ha!"
They are the future stepdaughters of the King's uncle, did they say so?
In the entire capital city now, which family can compare to the Shen family?
But my mother hasn't gotten married yet, and the Dingguo Marquis's Mansion hasn't made her identity public, so it's not easy for them to cause trouble in the name of the Dingguo Marquis's Mansion.
Just be patient, there's no need to give others an excuse to talk about you.
Ye Caiping looked at Li Jiaojiao with a half-smile: "You are so arrogant, I wonder which family you are from?"
"How dare you! You have no right to ask." Li Jiaojiao raised her chin slightly, her eyes full of arrogance. "All you need to know is that I am a noble lady. Kneel down now."
Ye Caiping looked at her like a clown: "You seem to have forgotten one thing. I am a concubine of the seventh rank. And you, no matter which noble lady you are from, only your family members have official rank. Noble lady is not a rank. On the contrary, when you see a concubine of the seventh rank, you should show respect to me."
Li Jiaojiao was stunned for a moment and then choked.
Only then did he remember that Ye Caiping was a seventh-rank concubine.
In the past in the village, she always felt that those young ladies from official families were superior and she had to kowtow and greet them when she saw them.
Later, when I entered the Duke's Mansion and took etiquette classes, I realized that noble ladies are also ordinary people.
Li Jiaojiao was furious: "Ye Caiping, don't be so shameless. Believe it or not, I will make you get out of the capital tomorrow! In less than a month, I will make your workshop go bankrupt! If you know what's good for you, kneel down and kowtow to me, and I will spare you this time."
Ye Caiping laughed when she heard this: "You are the opposite of Tian Gang. Are you abusing your power in broad daylight and in public? Are you using your status as a noble to persecute the people?"
Li Jiaojiao's face changed.
Xiaolu has already grabbed her hand: "Miss!"
She had worked in the Duke's Mansion for many years and knew that there were some things that could not be done.
Even if you do it, you have to do it secretly. You can't do it in broad daylight.
Just like the prince in the mansion, he was once reported to the prefect for raping a woman in the street, and it caused a big uproar at the time. Later, the lady spent more than ten thousand taels to settle the matter.
Now the young lady actually said such words in public. Isn't this like lice building a nest on a bald head? It's too blatant.
Li Jiaojiao also remembered what she had learned in the past few days, her face turned pale: "You, you are simply slandering me! I just want you to kowtow to me."
Ye Caiping: "Oh, may I ask, are you a princess or a county lady? You actually want me, a seventh-rank concubine, to kowtow to you? Come on, follow me to see the official. Let the official judge. Am I, a seventh-rank concubine personally conferred by the emperor, so lowly? I actually have to kneel down to someone without a title?"
Li Jiaojiao was so frightened that her face turned pale. Xiaolu said anxiously: "Miss, let's go home first..."
"No..." Li Jiaojiao gritted her teeth.
She had finally become the daughter of a high and mighty Duke's mansion. She should have been showing off in front of her acquaintances, but she never expected that she would be choked like this.
It’s such a slap in the face!
She really couldn't swallow this breath: "Ye Caiping..."
Ye Caiping chuckled: "It's okay if you don't want to go to the government office. Kneel down and kowtow to me. Just say you have met Lady Ye. You are blind and don't recognize a great man."
"you......"
"Let's see who dares!" At this time, a cold shout rang out.
A noble lady came over angrily with a few servants. It turned out to be the wife of Duke Ping.
