Xu Mama's words clearly told Ye Qingwan and Lin Xiuyan that she would absolutely not show any mercy.
In her eyes, besides resentment and malice, there was also a blatant provocation.
Ye Qingwan's expression immediately darkened, while Lin Xiuyan smiled happily: "I like strict nannies the most."
"Please be strict with me, my nanny. I will definitely become a qualified Crown Princess."
Ye Qingwan knew Lin Xiuyan quite well, and upon hearing this, she felt that things weren't so simple, so she glanced at Lin Xiuyan.
Lin Xiuyan winked at her, her eyes full of smiles.
Ye Qingwan was curious about how Lin Xiuyan would avoid Xu Mama's malicious punishment.
The other concubine's daughters also looked at Lin Xiuyan with curiosity, having heard many stories about her in the past few days.
Opinions on this matter are mixed.
Some people thought Lin Xiuyan was incredibly audacious, going against the princess in the palace, which was tantamount to courting death.
Some people think Lin Xiuyan is intelligent, quick-witted, and unconventional, which is very interesting. They hope that she can defeat the Princess of Pingnan.
Lin Xiuyan glanced at the concubine's daughters; they were all quite pretty.
She smiled back when someone gave her a kind look, and she smiled back when someone rolled their eyes at her.
She simply made a basic mental assessment of these people to facilitate her subsequent actions.
These illegitimate daughters, the older ones, had all studied etiquette for a while, and now, when they practiced, they were already quite proficient.
Although Lin Xiuyan had studied etiquette with Ye Junfei for a period of time, she was definitely not cut out for it.
In addition, Ye Junfei was always touching her inappropriately, so her manners were really not very good.
At this moment, everyone bowed, and she was undoubtedly the worst one.
A sinister smile appeared on Xu Mama's lips as she picked up the ruler and began to lash Lin Xiuyan's face.
Just as the ruler was about to strike Lin Xiuyan's face, Xu Mama's body flew out and crashed heavily to the ground with a thud.
Everyone: "!!!!"
Ye Qingwan: "..."
She really wanted to applaud; that was a beautiful strike!
No wonder her brother chose her, she's amazing!
Lin Xiuyan said apologetically, "Granny Xu, are you alright? I'm so sorry!"
"I really didn't mean to hurt you. I've been practicing martial arts with my mother since I was little, and she trains my reflexes in different ways every day."
“If I react slowly, she will punish me severely.”
"So when you made a move just now, I reflexively fought back! I really didn't mean to!"
Granny Xu doesn't believe her ghosts!
However, since her attitude was extremely good at the moment, Granny Xu couldn't do anything to her and could only say, "I'm doing this for the good of the Crown Princess!"
Lin Xiuyan said with a guilty look, "I know, I know! I promise I won't do it again next time!"
When Granny Xu got up from the ground, her body was covered in wounds.
She endured the pain and continued to teach them manners. She refused to believe that she could not find fault with Lin Xiuyan or cripple her!
As it turned out, her thinking was correct.
Because Lin Xiuyan made another mistake very quickly.
A sinister smile crept across Xu Mama's lips. Learning from her previous experience, she did not confront Lin Xiuyan head-on.
She went around behind Lin Xiuyan, picked up the ruler, and lashed it hard across the back of Lin Xiuyan's head.
If she hits Lin Xiuyan, she'll probably be knocked unconscious, and the wound will take at least half a month to heal.
Granny Xu could already imagine Lin Xiuyan's miserable state in her mind.
Her idea was beautiful, but the reality was quite cruel.
Just as the ruler in her hand was about to strike Lin Xiuyan, Lin Xiuyan delivered a back kick, striking her directly in the abdomen and sending her flying backward.
The screams nearly ripped the roof off Jingwuxuan.
Everyone: "!!!!"
Ye Qingwan: "…………"
She seems like she wants to laugh, what should I do?
That was so satisfying!
Lin Xiuyan rushed to Xu Mama's side and asked, "Xu Mama, are you alright?"
Granny Xu was in so much pain that she couldn't speak. She glared fiercely at Lin Xiuyan with her venomous eyes.
Lin Xiuyan clasped her hands together in front of her chest and said, "I forgot to tell you, when I practice martial arts with my mother, she often sneaks up behind me and attacks me."
"So my body reacts faster than my brain. I didn't hurt you, did I? My apologies, my apologies!"
All the concubine's daughters stared at Lin Xiuyan in disbelief. She had hit someone and could still justify herself; she was truly remarkable!
Everyone had suffered at the hands of Granny Xu, so even if they didn't particularly like Lin Xiuyan, they secretly felt a strange sense of satisfaction.
By this time, they probably all knew how this Crown Princess acted, after all, she was the kind of person who dared to directly hit even a luminous pearl.
Ye Qingwan was trying hard to suppress her laughter, but she looked worried and asked, "Granny Xu, are you alright? Should we call a doctor for you?"
Xu Mama had caught her breath by this time.
She looked at Lin Xiuyan and said, "Princess Consort, you did this on purpose!"
Lin Xiuyan said aggrievedly, "You're wronging me. People who practice martial arts have conditioned reflexes. If you don't believe me, you can ask other people."
Granny Xu gritted her teeth and glared fiercely at Lin Xiuyan.
Ye Qingwan said from the side, "I know about this. I heard my guards mention it."
“Normally speaking, people who practice martial arts are more sensitive to killing intent. When the old woman approached my sister-in-law, did she have murderous intent in her heart?”
Lin Xiuyan immediately chimed in, "Yes, yes, I felt a strong killing intent behind me, so I kicked out."
After she finished speaking, she looked at Granny Xu in shock and said, "You weren't trying to kill me just now, were you?"
Granny Xu: "..."
That's what she thought, but she absolutely couldn't admit it.
She could only say, "Princess Consort, don't talk nonsense! I didn't!"
Lin Xiuyan said, somewhat puzzled, "Then maybe I'm just imagining things."
"But if you're going to correct my posture from behind next time, try to be more relaxed."
"I'm quite sensitive to my environment. If you're not in a calm state of mind when you stand behind me, I might have a stress reaction."
Granny Xu: "..."
Isn't Lin Xiuyan blatantly saying that she deliberately wanted to hit her?
Lin Xiuyan gently helped Granny Xu up and said, "I apologize for my rashness just now."
"Next time you come to correct my posture, try to be a little smaller."
"Can you continue teaching us etiquette?"
Granny Xu gritted her teeth and said, "I can!"
Lin Xiuyan smiled at her: "Then let's begin. I'm a very eager learner and want to learn as much as possible."
Granny Xu: "..."
She has taught many people etiquette, but this is the first time she has encountered someone like Lin Xiuyan.
She forced herself to stand up, determined to seize upon Lin Xiuyan's mistake and force them to immediately begin learning etiquette.
