Cao told him the whole story, starting with how she invited Mei Jiqin to her home to be a female teacher, and then went on to talk about how Jia Rong was courting Mei Jiqin behind her back. She talked for a long time without getting to the point.
Cao Hu, Cao's father, became impatient and slapped her on the head, "Get to the point!"
Cao was raised as a boy by her father since she was a child. She was used to being beaten by her father, so she didn't think it was a big deal. She said "Oh" and simplified the rest of her words.
After saying that, she looked at Cao Hu eagerly, and Cao Hu also looked at her.
After a while, Cao Hu walked into the house without saying a word, found a feather duster, raised his hand and slapped Cao, "Why did I give birth to a troublemaker like you!"
Cao was so beaten that she jumped up and down, shouting at the top of her lungs, "Dad, Dad, stop beating me! I've realized my mistake. Let's go and apologize to that person now, okay?"
Cao Hu threw the feather duster to the ground, went to the yard, and punched the stone table.
His horizontal training skills have now reached perfection, and splitting a stone table with his bare hands is no problem.
He knocked off a corner of the stone table, and he held that corner in his hand and pulled hard!
As a result, his face turned purple, and the best he could do was to crush the stone, but he couldn't turn it into powder!
If one wants to achieve this, one must practice internal martial arts to perfection! One can almost say that one has already reached the pinnacle.
Such a person, if not the best martial artist in the world, would probably be second to none. Forget about himself, even if the entire Cao Gang was tied up, it wouldn't be enough for them to destroy him.
Cao Hu looked at his daughter who had fallen into a daze and sighed deeply. What a sin he had committed.
Since you have already provoked someone and you are not as skilled as them, you obviously have no choice but to give in.
An apology is a must. Otherwise, if someone remembers this incident one day and becomes upset, and kills his father and daughter, he will have no way to seek justice.
So the most urgent thing now is to find out where the female master lives.
The Cao Gang was large in number and powerful, and Cao Hu, as the third in command of the Cao Gang, naturally had many subordinates. He passed on the order, and soon his subordinates sent back a message saying that they had learned the location of the Xue Mansion from a child.
On that day, Cao Hu and Cao came to the house with a bunch of gifts.
When Xue Huan heard this, she thought that the older ones had come after the younger ones were beaten. When she had used force to intimidate the Cao family before, she had already prepared for retaliation. For this reason, she had made a lot of preparations in the past few days.
Fearing that the forces behind the Cao family would cause trouble for her family, she specially drew protective talismans for them to wear and set up defensive formations in the house.
However, when the servants brought Cao's father and daughter in, she realized that her previous worries were completely in vain.
In fact, this is true. Based on the strength she has shown before, how could Cao Hu dare to confront her head-on?
After so many years in the martial arts world, he is no longer the ignorant boy who was easily carried away by passion when he was young. At this age, he has deeply understood a truth: people should admit defeat when they should, and there is nothing shameful in bowing down in front of those who are stronger than themselves.
If you insist on hitting a rock with an egg because of your inexplicable self-esteem, you are hopelessly stupid! If you are courting death, no one can save you.
"Oh, is this Miss Xue? It's true that heroes emerge from youth. I've heard of you for a long time!" Cao Hu came up and started to flatter her in the same old way.
Xue Huan responded with a polite yet awkward smile.
After a few brief pleasantries, Cao Hu shouted at Cao: "Rebellious girl! Kneel down!"
Xue Huan was drinking tea from a cup, and his shout scared her so much that she almost dropped the cup.
Cao actually knelt down in front of her with a thud. "Ms. Xue, I was blind and offended you before. If you are still angry, just vent it on me. Don't hold it in your heart..."
Xue Huan: “…”
Since she had already created the image of a martial arts master in front of Cao's father and daughter, she had no choice but to play the role to the end. Xue Huan raised her hand, used the object control technique on Cao, and lifted her up from the ground.
Cao stood up involuntarily and was shocked again.
"Whether we bumped into each other or not, I don't take it to heart. If you came here intentionally to apologize, you're targeting the wrong person," Xue Huan said meaningfully.
Cao was stunned for a moment before reacting, her expression somewhat reluctant. She had asked her to apologize to Xue Huan, but that was out of necessity due to her strength. But apologizing to Mei Jiqin? Why did that bitch have the right to do so?!
But now it’s not a question of whether she is willing or not.
Cao Hu glared at her with his tiger eyes, "Did you hear what Miss Xue said? You were wrong in this matter. You wrongly accused Miss Mei. Miss Mei is innocent. If you want to blame someone, blame your worthless husband. He looks so shabby, but you treat him like a treasure!"
Turning to face Xue Huan, he looked extremely humble: "Miss Xue, could you please ask Miss Mei to come out and see you?"
Xue Huan nodded and asked the maid to invite Mei Jiqin over.
In the small courtyard, Mei Jiqin was teaching Xue Jun calligraphy in the study.
Xue Jun was very intelligent and often understood things quickly, so it was easy for her to teach him. Furthermore, her time at the Xue residence was also easy.
Xue Huan arranged everything from food, clothing, housing and transportation very well, so there was no need to worry about money.
The meals are delicious every day. You can eat with the Xue family in the front hall, or you can eat alone in your own room.
If you want to go out, you don’t have to go through the main gate. There is a door leading to the outside in the yard, so you can travel freely.
The wet nurse no longer has to work non-stop for her every day, and can stay by her side and enjoy her old age.
In my spare time, I can enjoy the flowers and swing on the swings, or play chess and write poetry with my student Xue Jun. I don’t have to worry about losing my place to live at any time, and I no longer have to worry about the future. Every day is so relaxing and pleasant, and worth looking forward to.
Days like this always made her feel like she was dreaming, and she was afraid that she would suddenly wake up one day.
When the maid came to ask her to go to the front hall, Mei Jiqin's hand holding the pen suddenly trembled slightly, leaving an ink spot on the fine snow-white rice paper.
"Jun'er, you practice on your own first, I'll be back soon."
"good."
On the way, the maid recounted what happened in the front hall to Mei Jiqin, "...Our young lady is so powerful that even the third in command of the Cao Gang doesn't dare to act presumptuously in front of her."
Mei Jiqin slowly calmed down the worry that had been hanging in her heart.
When she stepped into the hall, Xue Huan stood up and pulled her to sit next to her. "Sister Mei, this Madam Jia has realized her mistake and has come to apologize to you in person today."
He squeezed her hand as he spoke and winked at her suggestively.
Mei Jiqin understood what she meant, lowered her eyes and smiled, then pinched her back.
Cao Hu gave Cao a look and said, "What are you still standing there for? Do you need me to teach you how to apologize?"
