Chapter 88: Returning Ho Rich and Proud 5
Madam Wu was furious and asked sternly, “Why can’t I be here? Even if Qi Qingyao has broken ties with our family, she’s still a Qi. Can’t I co to take a look at how she’s been faring?”
Before Ma Sanye could say anything, it was Matron Ma instead who replied unhappily, “And now you’ve taken a look. The young lady is doing very well with life now!”
“Hmph!”
Madam Wu was so mad that flas were about to spew out of her nose.
She had a thieving look in her eyes like a mouse’s as she scrutinized Qi Qingyao’s clothes. Then, her tone peculiar, she said, “She must be a concubine for so big family if she’s able to put on gold and silver.”
The crowd, “????”
Matron Ma’s expression was dark. “Madam Wu, what are you implying?”
A woman laughed at Madam Wu despite herself and mocked, “The daughter that she didn’t want achieved success in just a few short days, of course, she would be feeling envious and regretful.”
Madam Wu heard this and felt like a cat whose tail had been stepped on. Pointing at Qi Qingyao on the spot, she retorted like a cannon.
“You lot have been turned into fools by money and rice!
“Look at her true self.
“She was an idiot before this! Just a fool who doesn’t know anything.
“Just because she’s no longer stupid now, so what?
“Do you think that she’s literate now or that she knows how to make money?
“She must have used so inappropriate ans to get this money.
“As for what they were, just look at what she’s wearing now. Could garnts like that be afforded with just a little bit of money? Just those two bracelets alone would fork a hefty sum!
“I admit that when she’s not stupid, she was decent looks—she’s my child, after all. She’s inherited my outstanding and beautiful features! Even if she had three kids with her, there will still be so landlord out there who would desire her beauty. All she needs to do is put a bit of those flattery skills of hers from four years ago to use and she could easily attract a landlord!
“Is being sobody’s concubine or maid sothing worth being arrogant about? And she dares co back to this village to show off? I truly feel ashad of you! If I were you, I would have dug a hole and buried myself in it!”
The mont Madam Wu said her piece, everyone was looking at her as if they were watching so cody show.
Madam Guo had felt jealous initially. After she heard what Madam Wu said, she felt much more soothed and added, “That’s right, it’s fortunate that the Qi family has broken ties with her. If soone found out that my sister-in-law had beco so housekeeper, I would be too ashad to continue living.”
The won in Ma Sanye’s ho watched as the duo supported each other’s words. They were a bit speechless at the sight.
They had just been talking with the Qi family’s young lady.
The girl’s speech and deanor do not seem to be the sa as the person from before…
Back then, they would never have believed that she could earn 20 strings of mace in one month. Who would have thought that in just 11 days, she had not only returned the money to the people but also brought and distributed rice to them?
Wait a minute, could she have really beco soone’s concubine…and was just being doted on by her master?
Otherwise, it made no sense that she could have earned such a success.
Everyone was a little confused.
They slowly turned their heads and looked at Qi Qingyao.
Qi Qingyao was motionlessly seated there but emanated a powerfully condescending aura. She threw a contemptuous glance at Madam Wu who had spoken such acrid words and spat out a few words lightly.
“A green-eyed monster, haha.”
“Qi Qingyao, who are you calling that?” snapped Madam Wu angrily as her complexion turned green.
Qi Qingyao shrugged calmly. “If the shoe fits.”
Matron Ma could not help but laugh out loud. “Let her continue being jealous!”
“I’m jealous?”
Madam Wu’s throat seed to be caught on sothing, she was so angry she could not say a single word.
