Chapter 135 Bad intentions
Looking Li Yuegui up and down, Tao Qiuyi sneered, "It's better to be cold, it can make people clear their minds."

Was this little guy mocking her for not being in her right mind? Li Yuegui's face twisted with anger, but she quickly adjusted her expression.

"Qiu Yi!" Li Yuegui smiled, her tone flattering. "You are Jing Yuan's daughter-in-law, and I am Jing Yuan's third aunt. We are a family. Do you think it's okay for me to call you that?"

Building closer relationships starts with changing the way you address others.

"Whatever." Tao Qiuyi really didn't care what others called her.

"Okay, I'll call you Qiuyi from now on." Seeing that Tao Qiuyi didn't refute, Li Yuegui's anger subsided a little, and she also saw a glimmer of hope. "Qiuyi, you see, it's really cold today,"

"I think it's better for us to go inside and talk. It's warmer inside than outside. Let's have a good chat and clear up the misunderstandings."

"We're a family, connected by blood. How could there be any deep hatred? Jing Yuan's wife, do you think what Third Aunt said makes sense?"

Tao Qiuyi looked at Li Yuegui with a forced smile and reminded her calmly, "Aunt San, we have separated from you and are no longer a family."

Who said that if the family splits up, they are no longer one? This little guy's words were too irritating. Li Yuegui gritted her teeth secretly, endured it again and again, and finally suppressed the urge to curse.

She was so angry that she wanted to beat Tao Qiuyi to death, but she had to pretend to be magnanimous on her face.

In Tao Qiuyi's opinion, Li Yuegui's appearance at this moment was like a weasel paying a New Year's visit to a chicken, with no good intentions.

"Jingyuan's wife, look at what you are saying." Li Yuegui put on the airs of an elder and looked at Tao Qiuyi disapprovingly, "We are a family. Even if we split up, we are still a family."

"We had some misunderstandings about you before, and you also had some misunderstandings about us. In the end, it was all misunderstandings. You are a smart child. You should understand that only by relying on your family can you avoid being bullied in this village."

"Let's put it this way. Don't blame us for the previous misunderstanding, and we don't blame you either. We are all family. Let's get along well in the future. Once we understand each other, our relationship will naturally improve."

Imitating Li Yuegui's tone, Tao Qiuyi said, "Third Aunt, what you said is not right. After the family splits up, we are no longer a family. There is no need to get along well with each other, and understanding each other is superfluous."

These words made Li Yuegui furious. She hated Zhou Mei who had suggested that she get close to Tao Qiuyi.

She tried to persuade him in every possible way, saying all the nice things, but Tao Qiuyi was sarcastic with every word, and was simply a stubborn person.

Zhou Mei also came over at this time and questioned Tao Qiuyi angrily, "Jingyuan's wife, are you saying this to make Jingyuan sever ties with us?"

"I am Jing Yuan's great aunt, and my sister-in-law is Jing Yuan's aunt. We are all Jing Yuan's elders. You are instigating Jing Yuan to separate from us, which is already unfilial. You are even trying to instigate Jing Yuan to sever ties with us. You are simply vicious."

"Hurry up and apologize to your Third Aunt. Please forgive your rudeness. I will pretend that you didn't see anything, even if it's the past."

"I am unfilial, vicious, rude, and I talk back to my elders. Haven't you all experienced this a long time ago?" Tao Qiuyi didn't even look at Zhou Mei. She looked at Li Yuegui with a smile on her face.

"What's the big deal about me talking back to my elders, Third Aunt? Have you forgotten the lesson we learned at Third Grandpa's house so quickly?"

Li Yuegui's face changed drastically, her legs became weak uncontrollably, and she took a few steps back before she could barely stand.

"Tao Qiuyi, you are too arrogant." Zhou Mei was furious. She raised her hand to teach Tao Qiuyi a lesson, but she didn't know what she was thinking about. Her palm turned into a finger, pointing at Tao Qiuyi. She glared at her fiercely but didn't dare to really hit her.

She hadn't forgotten the pain of being slapped. "I'm arrogant, and you've known this for a long time." Tao Qiuyi raised an eyebrow, looked at Zhou Mei and then at Li Yuegui, "If you know what's good for you, don't mess with me."

These two came to her, one playing the good cop and the other the bad cop, just to get into her room and look for evidence. Such roundabout ways and making a fuss about nothing were really unlike them to do.

Li Yuegui's suppressed anger suddenly surged up, and she angrily said, "Who provoked you? If it weren't for you..."

"Third sister-in-law." Sister Zhou interrupted Li Yuegui and couldn't help cursing her in her heart, "Idiot, brainless idiot, you are so stupid but you don't even realize it."

Li Yuegui also remembered everyone's plan at this time and quickly shut up.

Too lazy to watch the two women flirting with each other, Tao Qiuyi turned and walked towards the kitchen. She was very busy and had no time to play with them.

"You little brat, you don't have any manners at all." Li Yuegui cursed softly when she saw Tao Qiuyi leave without saying goodbye.

Thinking about how she had said all the nice things to Tao Qiuyi but Tao Qiuyi never gave her a good look, Li Yuegui was so angry that she wanted to beat Tao Qiuyi to death.

"If she had any manners, would she hit her elders? We are all Wei Jingyuan's elders, and her elders as well." Zhou Mei rolled her eyes at Li Yuegui and warned her coldly in a low voice.

"You chose to play the good guy. If you dare to ruin our plans, don't blame me for turning my back on you."

The plan was for her to pretend to be the good person and get closer to Tao Qiuyi, while Li Yuegui would be the bad person. However, Li Yuegui insisted on pretending to be the good person, and even when she pretended to be the good person, she couldn't control her temper and deliberately wanted to do bad things.

After warning Li Yuegui, Zhou Mei turned and walked into the house.

Li Yuegui was offended by Tao Qiuyi's expression. She was already in a bad mood, and after being warned by Zhou Mei, the anger in her heart almost drowned her. She stomped on the ground a few times and went straight back to her room.

Neither of them knew that Tao Qiuyi heard everything they said clearly.

It’s a plan, or a plan for all of us. Tao Qiuyi pulled out a faint smile, feeling a little expectant in her heart, waiting to see what plan Boss Wei and the others could come up with to deal with her.

"It smells so good! Li Zi, what delicious food are you making?" Tao Qiuyi walked into the kitchen and went straight to Li Zi and Xiao Huai who were standing by the stove.

"Scallion and white flour pancake." Li Zi smiled as she scooped up a cooked pancake from the pan and handed it directly to Tao Qiuyi. "Sister-in-law, try it."

"Okay." Tao Qiuyi pinched the palm-sized scallion pancake with two fingers. He felt his fingertips were a little hot, but not very hot. He blew on them before taking a bite and chewing them.

"Sister-in-law, how is it? Is it delicious?" Li Zi looked at Tao Qiuyi with bright eyes, with an expression that seemed to be about to praise me.

After swallowing the pancake, with the aroma of green onions still lingering in his mouth, Tao Qiuyi gave Li Zi a thumbs-up. "It's delicious, so delicious. Li Zi, your cooking skills are really good."

As he spoke, Tao Qiuyi tore off a piece of the cake and handed it to Li's mouth. Li opened her mouth and ate it naturally.

Xiao Huai watched the interaction between the two and felt envious but not jealous.
