Pfft
Grandma An spat out a mouthful of blood and angrily cursed, "You little slut, you whore who's been with a thousand men and ten thousand women, even if I die, I'll haunt you as a ghost!"
Worried about getting blood on herself, Song Qingyou took a few steps back. "I can't beat you as a human, but I have this kind of ability as a ghost. An old hag like you won't even have a chance as a ghost. You'll only go to the eighteenth level of hell."
Aunt Song crawled over, pleading, "Qingyou, we were wrong, please forgive us. Your brother is still young, he doesn't understand anything, please forgive him."
“Yes, Qingyou, I’m your second uncle. I haven’t done anything to wrong you, and I’ve never cursed you. All of this was decided by your grandparents. It has nothing to do with me. Please let me go,” Uncle Song said.
Song Qingyou didn't say anything, she just stood there, waiting for them to die.
Seeing that nothing she said would make a difference, the others knew she wouldn't let them go and could only crawl away. But soon, the pain intensified, and several of them coughed up blood, their eyes widened, and they lay motionless on the ground.
After confirming that everyone was dead, Song Qingyou left the room, locked the courtyard gate, returned to the room, carried a corpse back to the courtyard, and threw the body into the well. She did this several times, pulling the body when she couldn't carry it anymore, until she had carried all the corpses.
She put the food and wine she had brought back into the food box, then opened the courtyard gate and went outside. She came to a house, climbed over the wall, poured the wine in a corner, dug a hole and buried the rest of the food before leaving.
After Song Qingyou left, the bodyguards following behind her dug out the food box, carried it away, and quickly disappeared.
An Shuyi and Xia Hua watched him leave, then continued to follow Song Qingyou until she entered a courtyard house before leaving.
Back at the mansion, the two lay on the bed, and An Shuyi said, "Huahua, this Song Qingyou is really amazing. No wonder she's the female lead. Other female leads in novels are all weak and innocent, but she's a strong woman. It's a pity we have to go up against her, otherwise I would really admire her."
Xia Hua pulled the blanket up, "She has no choice but to be ruthless. That family is like bloodsuckers. They don't want to work hard and only want to reap without sowing. If it were me, I would be even more ruthless than her."
The female lead's grandparents not only favored boys over girls, but also wanted to control everything, without even realizing how capable they were.
An Shuyi nodded, "And her parents aren't any better. Her father only knows how to gamble, and her mother is a pushover who can't help at all."
"Did you see that today? When Song Qingyou was being beaten, her mother actually smiled, clearly approving of her being beaten. I've never seen a mother like that before."
Xia Hua didn't see it, but she still said, "There are plenty of people like that. You just didn't see it. I guess she thinks that Song Qingyou is hard to control. She's clearly a girl, yet she runs her own business and does it so well, breaking the precedent of women always depending on men. That's why she's dissatisfied with her."
"Some women who have been oppressed believe that women should listen to men and be subservient to them, instead of taking the lead in everything, and they can't stand other women being more capable than themselves."
“People like that are so pathetic,” An Shuyi yawned. “Let’s not talk about them, let’s go to sleep, I’m so sleepy.”
Women shouldn't stay up too late, as it's bad for their health.
"Go to sleep."
The night passed quickly, and Xia Hua got up at dawn. Looking at An Shuyi who was still sleeping, she said, "Shushu, I'm going to teach the children to ride horses. You can get some more sleep before you get up. I'm leaving."
"Um!"
Seeing that she just nodded, Xia Hua didn't mind. She gave the recipe for morning tea to Tao Shi and told her to buy the ingredients in the morning, learn how to make it, and not make too much noise before going to the neighboring house.
When she arrived, the children were already practicing boxing. "Stop for a moment, everyone. Don't practice boxing today. Xia Chuyi, Xia Xiuyi, go and fix the carriage. We'll learn to ride horses today."
She and Shushu can only stay for another month at most before returning to the village. Now they need to teach them everything, otherwise they don't know when they will be able to come back next time.
When the children heard that they wouldn't have to practice boxing and could even learn to ride horses, they were happy, even though they weren't showing it.
Soon, the two carriages were harnessed. Xia Chu and Xia Xiu drove one horse, and she drove the other herself. They set off for the outskirts of the city. When they arrived at their destination, Xia Hua asked them to unload the carriages.
This is an open space with a forest in the distance. It's not very big, but it's more than enough for horseback riding.
"I'll demonstrate for you first. Watch carefully. Xia Chuyi, Xia Xiuyi, you two can start after I finish demonstrating." With that, he stood next to a horse.
Before they even mounted their horses, I told them what they needed to pay attention to. Then I rode around once, came back, and jumped off. "I've demonstrated it once. You two start now. If you don't understand anything, just ask me."
"Don't be too nervous when riding a horse. Horses are very docile. Don't run into the forest, and don't go too fast. Most importantly, if you can't control yourself, just jump off the horse. All those light-body skills you learned weren't for nothing. Flying over rooftops and scaling walls is impossible now, but getting off a horse is very simple. Let's begin."
These two horses are different from the horses in the brokerage firm; they are very docile and won't get scared unless you pull on them.
Under her command, Xia Chuyi and Xia Xiuyi nimbly mounted their horses, pulled on the reins, and with a shout, the horses began to move forward.
"Take it slow for a while first, and then speed up a bit once you've gotten used to it," Xia Hua reminded them again, seeing how easily they were moving.
Before long, Xia Chuyi and Xia Xiuyi were able to ride around on horseback, then dismount and have someone else take their place.
She was teaching horseback riding here, while An Shuyi on the other side had just gotten up. Looking at the sky outside, it wasn't even noon yet. Smelling the fragrance outside, she didn't want to sleep anymore. She changed into a traditional Chinese dress with a front opening and a half-sleeved top. The top was white, the outer jacket was red, and the skirt was light blue.
After washing up in the side room, she returned to her room to wipe her face, then styling her hair, putting on a hairpin, before opening the door and going out.
"Tao, what are you doing?" Standing outside the kitchen, I saw that everyone inside was busy and bustling about. It wasn't lunchtime yet.
Hearing the noise, Tao and the others in the kitchen turned around and saw the lady standing outside. They stepped forward, bowed, and said, "Reporting to Madam, Madam Xia gave us some recipes this morning and told us to learn them. We are currently learning them."
Hearing her say that, An Shuyi remembered that she had given the dim sum recipe to Huahua last night so that she could learn to make it for Tao Shi.
"How's it going? By the way, did Hua Hua say where she went?" She hasn't been seen all morning. Could she be at the house next door training the children?
