The woman looked at her disheveled reflection in the mirror and covered her face with her hands: "My grandma always said that in the past, many people got married at the age of thirteen or fourteen, and nobody cared. My grandma herself married a young master when she was thirteen."
"Women don't need to know anything else, as long as they can win a man's heart. My grandmother never lies. Look at the big house we live in now, it was given to my grandmother by the young master. Even after my grandmother remarried, she didn't take it back."
Qian Xiao's expression became even stranger. She thought it was a bit incongruous. If that old lady was really a shrew who was being unreasonable, she should have been the one to do it from the beginning. Older people are much more effective at being shameless than younger people.
Isn't this a typical example of me staying out of the spotlight and manipulating others to act as pawns—a typical backyard tactic in a grand mansion?
The onlookers all turned to look at the old woman on the ground. When the old woman heard her granddaughter say those words, she pretended to be dead and stopped struggling. This brat was going to kill her. She was most afraid of people finding out that she had been someone's concubine.
Her granddaughter was the best-looking one. In order for the family to have a good life in the future, she took her under her wing from a young age and taught her some skills. She did not hide these things from her. Unexpectedly, this granddaughter was stupid and clumsy, and she could not learn anything well.
When she got on the bus today, she spotted the three people opposite her. Although those three people dressed and ate similarly to them, their behavior was something that ordinary people couldn't teach them.
The wealthy families of the past have all become more low-key now. She figured that since it wasn't a good idea to directly approach those overly flamboyant families, these low-key but wealthy families were the most suitable. If she could get on their good side, they would become her family's future money bag.
Who would have thought that the most formidable young girl could not only curse people but also turn the tables on them? I wonder if her past identity will have a negative impact on my son, since he got his job from that damned guy.
If that damned guy hadn't gone back on his word, her son would be nothing.
Qian Xiao touched his nose: "Well, we look well-mannered because our family taught us well from a young age. We read books because the three of us are college students and naturally enjoy reading. It doesn't mean we're from rich families."
"Their parents are both factory workers, and my father is a soldier. You're really mistaken. We're just an ordinary family, as ordinary as can be."
Those who are just watching... are talking nonsense. How many ordinary families can afford to raise a college student?
Wait a minute, isn't that young man not even sixteen yet? He's a college student, is he some kind of child prodigy?
"You're calling us capitalists, saying we're just trying to force people to marry you?"
"Yes, people are afraid of this nowadays. As long as you are afraid, you will compromise. At that time, you will agree to whatever conditions we propose."
Qian Xiao, how could you guys be so naive?
Qian Xiao patted the woman's shoulder hard, releasing her from his mental control: "You really dare to think like that. If everyone thought like that, wouldn't society be in chaos? I even suspect that you are spies left behind by the enemy to undermine our country from within."
The onlookers felt that the more they thought about it, the more plausible it seemed. Wasn't this an attempt to disrupt our internal harmony and poison our people with erroneous ideas?
As I've said, anyone who can get a sleeper berth is at least a leader, and their ideology is absolutely sound and upright. A few words from them can make them think of many things.
Qian Xiao felt that was enough. If they continued talking, it would be troublesome if they really got someone arrested. This person probably wasn't some heinous villain. At most, it was a matter of morality. People might talk about morality, but they wouldn't actually be sentenced.
Qian Xiao stood up, ready to end her part for the day. She had had her fill of talking, and with only half a day left before arriving at her destination, there was no chance she would see the two of them again.
But the onlookers wouldn't stand for it. They tied up the woman and the old lady, leaving Qian Xiao dumbfounded.
No, you guys really got carried away? I was just giving them a taste of their own medicine; I really didn't intend to make a big fuss.
Unfortunately, the train police also came over. I don't know who was so fast. But they still need to explain the whole story. Luckily, there were passengers sitting nearby who could vouch for the truth of what they said. However, the old lady and the woman were taken away.
The charge is assembling a crowd to cause trouble?
Qian Xiao didn't know if this matter could be considered a disturbance, but having to go to the police station after getting off the bus was still quite troublesome.
Sun Cheng gave Qian Xiao a thumbs up: "Our Xiao Xiao is really good. I still need to learn more from you. I've realized that you can't be irritable when arguing with someone. You have to stay calm in order to find a loophole."
Qian Xiao's lips twitched. "You're really something. Why don't you just ignore her? You're like an unkillable cockroach, always trying to cause trouble. Who can you blame for falling for your tricks every time?"
"Hehe, Sister Cheng, you flatter me."
Then Qian Xiao looked at Sun Kaicheng with a mocking expression: "I told you that people shouldn't be too good-looking. Look, they're prone to attracting trouble when they come out."
Sun Cheng couldn't help but laugh. Her younger brother disliked people saying he was good-looking, thinking that was a term used to describe girls.
Sun Kaicheng wasn't really angry. He had his reasons this time, but it wasn't really his fault. He had been quite low-key. Apart from talking to his third sister and Erdan, he didn't chat with anyone else.
He smiled helplessly: "Alright, even if I was wrong, I'll take you hunting in the mountains when we get back."
"Tch, we don't even know who's leading whom yet. Do you know that mountain better than I do?" Who is he looking down on with that statement?
"Alright, alright, then how about you take me hunting in the mountains?"
Sun Cheng... why aren't you angry? You always get furious when I say you're pretty. Why are you treating people differently based on who you are? Am I not your real sister anymore?
However, she had long seen through her brother's true nature; he was the kind of person who valued women more than his sister.
“We’ll be fine at the police station, right? Should we call home?” For Sun Cheng, calling her parents if anything happened was no problem.
Sun Kaicheng shook his head: "No need. Even if I go, I'll only ask about some process details. It'll be fine."
It wasn't a big deal to begin with. If that woman hadn't mentioned "young master" or something, it wouldn't have gotten this serious. At most, we would have just had a fight and moved on. Not many people really take what people say in a fight seriously.
However, Erdan's skill is quite good, much more useful than his mental power. It would be great if it could work every time. I don't know what's wrong with Erdan's mental power; it sometimes works and sometimes it doesn't.
