Chapter 350 A Disgrace
Lin Yuesha's lips twitched. These two sisters were quite talented; she hadn't expected them to come up with such a method.
Indeed, this is a clever move. If she falls for it, the scene will be extremely awkward, and not only that, it will be very embarrassing.
"Li Ruoxue bribed the cook at the Bai residence with silver. When the zongzi (sticky rice dumplings) are served for dinner, there will be one with a colorful thread attached and some filling inside. I'm reserving it for you, Miss."
Qingxing told Lin Yuesha that they would quietly switch the rice dumplings between the two of them, so the rice dumpling with the colorful thread was safe, and the other one was the problem.
"good."
Lin Yuesha struggled to suppress her laughter. She glanced at the smug Li sisters, then lowered her head, afraid that she would burst out laughing and give herself away.
In the flower hall of the Bai residence, Prefect Bai and Madam Yan were already waiting, and soon Bai Dingfeng also arrived.
"Master Bai."
The group bowed to Prefect Bai, who disregarded formalities and laughed, "Your fathers and I are colleagues, so just call me Uncle."
Prefect Bai took his seat first, followed by the others who sat around a round table. Bai Youran sat next to Lin Yuesha, and to avoid being in trouble later, Lin Yuesha specially gave up the seat next to Yan Shi to Li Ruoxue, who was eager to show off.
"It's just a simple home-cooked meal, please don't mind it, my nieces."
Prefect Bai had a smile on his face, which was different from his serious demeanor in the courtroom; the atmosphere was very relaxed.
"Uncle Bai, it is my honor to have you as a guest at my home. I would never mind."
Li Ruoxue glanced at Bai Dingfeng out of the corner of her eye and saw him frowning at the food, then looked at Lin Yuesha.
Young Master Bai is looking at that little hussy again. Lin Yuesha, that little bitch, has a pretty face, but her figure is not as good as hers. Could it be that Bai Dingfeng has a special fetish and likes innocent young women?
That's right. She asked around and found out that Bai Dingfeng had never been to a brothel, nor did he have a maidservant with him.
Her mother once said that men are like that, they like to look at faces, but they only realize that faces are the most useless thing once they actually experience sex.
Lin Yuesha had already been trained in dining etiquette by Granny Fang and Granny Kang at the girls' school. Because she made too much noise while eating, she was punished by Granny Fang several times.
Lin Yuesha kept her head down, strictly adhering to the rules, neither speaking while eating nor sleeping.
There was hardly any clinking of cups and plates at the dinner table. The young ladies ate slowly and carefully. Lin Yuesha thought to herself with a self-deprecating smile that this little bit of food was not enough to fill her stomach. However, thinking about what was going to happen next, she had no appetite at all.
About fifteen minutes later, the maid brought out a plate of zongzi (sticky rice dumplings) and served dishes to the young ladies.
According to Qingxing, Lin Yuesha was given a rice dumpling with a colorful string attached, which she ate without any hesitation.
Li Ruoxue almost burst out laughing, and exchanged a glance with Li Ruoshuang, understanding each other perfectly.
Soon, it will be Lin Yuesha's moment of humiliation. Li Ruoxue will definitely remember this scene and live off this joke in the future.
“I know you are learning the rules. Our ancestors said that you should not talk while eating or sleeping, but you don’t need to be too reserved.”
After eating about half full, Prefect Bai noticed that the others weren't eating much, so he kindly advised them, "They're at the age when they're growing, so they absolutely mustn't go hungry."
Prefect Bai didn't like the customs of the capital. Not only did he have to follow the rules of eating, but the younger generation had to stop eating when the elders stopped. So he tried to eat as much as possible, but the young ladies were still very reserved.
"Uncle Bai, I..."
About fifteen minutes later, Li Ruoxue was waiting to see Lin Yuesha make a fool of herself when she realized that her stomach was a little sore.
She wanted to say goodbye to Madam Yan and leave the table, and kept giving Li Ruoshuang meaningful glances, but her sister kept her head down and didn't even look at her.
When Prefect Bai spoke, Li Ruoshuang could no longer hold back; if she didn't leave her seat, she would embarrass herself!
Li Ruoxue suddenly stood up, unable to speak, and ran towards the door, trying her best to hold back her words.
"Puff puff puff..."
Unfortunately, her movements were too exaggerated, and she couldn't help herself, running with a trailing sound in her voice.
Then, a foul odor filled the flower hall.
The atmosphere fell into a deathly silence. Everyone was shocked, but Li Ruoshuang was the most surprised. She pointed at Lin Yuesha and couldn't utter a single word.
She clearly saw it; the colorful rice dumpling was eaten by Lin Yuesha. Lin Yuesha should have been the one who farted. Where did things go wrong? Why...?
"It stinks!"
The maid in the flower hall sighed softly and opened the window again. Although Madam Yan did not speak, her face was ashen and her eyes showed great displeasure.
The wife you marry doesn't need to be particularly elegant, just obedient and sensible, but she can't be this rude!
At the dinner table, one should leave if there's any reaction, but unexpectedly, Li Ruoxue actually...
The meal ended unhappily because the smell was so unpleasant that Li Ruoshuang vomited up everything she ate. At this point, Madam Yan gave her a look of disgust and didn't want to look at the two sisters again.
Once outside, Li Ruoxue broke down in tears. She had lost face in front of Prefect Bai and Bai Dingfeng. Not only had the marriage between the two families fallen through, but her reputation was also ruined!
From now on, whenever anyone mentions Li Ruoxue, they will all bring up her embarrassing past of farting at Magistrate Bai's dinner table. How will she ever get married?
"Lin Yuesha, you shameless little hussy, it's all your fault!"
The marriage was doomed to fail. Li Ruoxue, without any restraint, ran to Lin Yuesha like a madwoman and tried to strangle her with her hands. She wanted to strangle this bitch Lin Yuesha to death!
"Miss Li, what are you doing?"
Qingxing stepped forward and stood in front of Lin Yuesha. With her there, Li Ruoxue couldn't touch a hair on her young lady's head.
"Get out of my way. I told you to get out of my way."
Li Ruoxue calmed down a little and said coldly, "Lin Yuesha, you ruined me, and I don't want to live anymore, but you have to die with me."
"What does this have to do with me?"
Lin Yuesha couldn't understand the mentality of these losers. They failed in their schemes, but blamed the people they had schemed against. Wasn't that just crazy?
"I didn't cause you to fart, so why are you trying to take me down with you? I'm innocent."
Lin Yuesha didn't hesitate to expose their shortcomings, which backfired on Li Ruoxue and Li Ruoshuang. If they hadn't intended to harm others, they wouldn't have embarrassed themselves in public. Their cleverness backfired.
“Li Ruoxue and Li Ruoshuang, listen carefully. My father is the Prefect of Jingzhao, an important official in the court. Even if he doesn’t care about me, his daughter, he can’t change that fact.”
Lin Yuesha looked at the two of them with a cold smile, "Do you think I'm so easy to bully?"
The two girls framed Lin Yuesha at the girls' school. Because they benefited from it, Lin Yuesha didn't hold it against them. But the two sisters became even more foolish. Some people are just not to be trifled with.
"Your father is just a minor prefect, the prefect of Yingcheng at that. Do you think you can scheme against me by bribing the cook in the Bai family?"
Lin Yuesha said all this to intimidate Zhao Fendie. A smart person knows when to advance and when to retreat, and understands their own position. Although she didn't care, it was still quite troublesome to be tripped up in secret.
