"Okay! Okay!"
In Feiluxuan, Aunt Rong was laughing wildly with a ferocious look on her face, and her middle-aged face was twisted into a ball.
Mother Xiang also showed a happy expression: "Just now, the person I sent out to eavesdrop came to report that there was a lot of commotion in Qingluzhai. I guess the matter has been settled."
Aunt Rong laughed so hard that she was hoarse, and it took her a long time to recover.
"It's no wonder I bribed the doctor. Xue Hanshu never imagined that the medicine she applied daily was already poisoned. Didn't she want to marry into the Yongping Marquis's mansion? Didn't she want to steal my Rou'er's marriage? How could she get away with harming so many people at Feiluxuan?"
She clenched her slender fingers tightly. "I wonder how long she can keep her favor with such a lame leg? I'll see her being kicked out of the Zhao family. Xue Hanshu's life will be over!"
…
Linzhou.
On the bank of the river, in the bustling city, there stands an extremely prominent mansion.
Although it is not an official residence, its magnificence is enough to make passers-by look back frequently and feel a little envious.
Under the door lintel, on the plaque, were two large characters "Fu's House" written neatly.
Although the Fu family is just a merchant family, they are very successful in the business world and can be regarded as the richest family in Linzhou.
Mr. Fu's younger sister originally married a Jinshi, but over the years, she was promoted all the way to the position of Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, adding to the prosperity of the Fu family.
At this time, in a small courtyard of Fu's house.
A young girl was kneeling, she looked about sixteen or seventeen years old, with clear features and beautiful eyebrows. Although she was thin, her facial features were delicate and her skin was as white as snow. She was particularly eye-catching at first sight.
But she was kneeling at the moment, holding a cup of tea high in her hand. Holding it high for a long time made the girl's hands tremble uncontrollably.
In front of her, there was a girl who looked about one or two years younger than her. She had a round face and round eyes, and looked very delicate, but she loved to dress up with jewels and gems. She was covered with red agate and jade, and her elegance was mixed with a bit of vulgarity.
It was Mr. Fu’s third legitimate daughter, Fu Jiamin.
"Fu Rongxin, aren't you just good at playing the piano and writing poetry, and some skills in flattery and attracting people? What's so great about that? The Li family came here to see me, why are you showing off?"
As Fu Jiamin spoke, she hit her waist hard with a bamboo whip: "When you were dancing, your posture was very good, wasn't it? Why are you afraid to move now?"
Fu Rongxin's hand holding the teacup was so sore that it was numb, but she didn't dare move at all, otherwise the hot water in the teacup, which was almost overflowing, would pour onto her hand.
"say!"
Fu Jiamin hit her again.
Fu Rongxin gritted her teeth in hatred.
When Xue Zhiyi replaced her as the legitimate daughter of the Xue family, she needed to find a place to stay.
It just so happened that in the same year, the Fu family also gave birth to a concubine's daughter. Otherwise, she would never have been sent here to be tortured by a fool like Fu Jiamin.
In an official family, treating a child born out of wedlock harshly is a very shameful thing, but after all, the Fu family is just a merchant family. Merchants are vulgar and do not value etiquette and morality, let alone worrying about their official reputation.
Her younger sister, Fu Jiamin, is a complete shrew. She has suffered a lot from her in the past ten years in the Fu family.
Seeing Fu Rongxin's eyes full of resentment, Fu Jiamin was even more proud: "Why are you staring at me? Fu Rongxin, even if you can write poetry, play the piano, or dance, you are still a lowly concubine's daughter! How dare you show off in front of me?"
After she finished speaking, she snorted again, "Let me warn you, when we go to Huajing in a few days, if you dare to act pretentiously and show off again, believe it or not, I will beat you to death."
Unexpectedly, although Fu Rongxin was kneeling, she glanced at Fu Jiamin with a look of deep contempt as if she were a fool. "Third sister has never made any progress in her studies. If that's the case, she should focus on improving herself. What's the point of torturing me? Do you think my abilities can be passed on to you? Your jealous face is really pitiful!"
"How dare you be so stubborn!"
Fu Jiamin was filled with hatred: Fu Rongxin's biological mother was clearly just a lowly foot-washing maid, yet how could she learn anything so quickly? And yet... and yet she had such a horrible face, one of the best in all of Linzhou, always able to overshadow everyone else. Really...
It's so unfair! It's so abominable!
She pointed a bamboo whip at the tip of Fu Rongxin's nose and said, "You are such a lowly person. You should know what it means to be ashamed of yourself. Just stay humble for the rest of your life. How dare you go out and embarrass yourself? If I don't teach you a lesson and make you obedient, you will definitely cause trouble again when you go to the Xue family this time. It will bring shame to our Fu family!"
Facing Fu Jiamin's unreasonable behavior, Fu Rongxin endured the pain of being whipped and looked at her with a raised eyebrow and a smile: "Third sister, do you remember that father said that you were reckless and ignorant, always causing trouble outside. When it comes to embarrassing yourself and causing trouble, how can I compare to you, sister?"
Fu Jiamin was stunned for a moment, and was so angry that she almost danced with joy. She hit Fu Rongxin a few more times with the bamboo whip, but seemed to be still not satisfied, so she started looking for something else that was handy.
She also didn't know why her father clearly didn't dote on Aunt Su at all, and could even be described as indifferent, but was kind to Fu Rongxin, and even punished her several times for bullying Fu Rongxin.
What on earth is so good about this little bitch that she can have her father support her so many times? Fortunately, her father is away on business and not often at home, otherwise this little bitch would have been so arrogant!
