Before the house was raided, the maidservant of the Prime Minister's residence absconded with t

After the bride was sent to the bridal chamber, the banquet outside began.

The vegetables and meats that Tao'er had taken out from her space, along with the chickens, ducks, and fish she bought from the town, filled a full thirty tables.

The villagers had never seen anything like it before. They ate while smacking their lips and exclaimed, "We're really lucky today!"

"What a treat!"

"Absolutely! This braised pork knuckle is so tender and flavorful, it's even better than what you get at the restaurants in town!"

"Try this osmanthus wine, it's very sweet and refreshing, and it won't give you a headache!"

"Da Niu's family is really putting on a grand feast, with so many tables!"

Tao'er moved between the tables, serving tea and water. She was tired, but she felt very happy.

As she passed by Madam Xu's table, she saw the old lady chatting happily with several elderly women from the village. Huanhuan was sitting in her lap, gnawing on a chicken leg, her greasy mouth grinning.

"Miss Peach!"

Someone tugged at her sleeve. Tao turned around and saw it was Aunt Li from next door. She leaned over and whispered, "How did you cook this dish?"

I ate three pieces of that braised pork and wanted to get more, but I was too embarrassed to.

"Teach your auntie, please?"

Tao'er smiled and replied, "Aunt Li, if you really want to learn, I'll write down a recipe and send it to you later."

Aunt Li patted her hand with delight, "Alright, alright, then I'll be waiting."

Tao'er did indeed cook several dishes herself for today's banquet.

Just as things were getting lively, a crisp voice suddenly came from the doorway: "Hey, you didn't even invite me to join in the fun?"

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound, and Tao'er's heart skipped a beat.

Liu Jiaojiao, dressed in a bright red dress and looking very elegant, stood at the gate of the courtyard, with Liu Laogen standing next to her.

Liu Jiaojiao smiled, her eyes sweeping across the table before finally settling on Tao'er's father: "Big brother, it's Tiezhu's nephew's big day, aren't we going to invite me and Dad?"

The room fell silent for a moment.

Everyone knows what kind of person Liu Jiaojiao is, but they've already severed ties and separated from their families, how dare these two still show up!

When Tao'er saw that her mother's face had darkened and she was about to get up, Tao'er quickly pressed her mother's arm down.

Today is my elder brother's happy occasion, and my sister-in-law's family is all here, so we can't let things get messy.

Otherwise, it wouldn't look good on my brother either!

"Mother, please take the old man to that table in the corner first."

I'll handle Liu Jiaojiao!

My sister-in-law's brothers are all here today; we can't make a scene.

Zhang Su'e nodded and personally went over to invite the old man in for the meal.

Tao'er walked over and then subtly gave Qingge a wink.

Qingge came over, and the two of them carried Liu Jiaojiao out.

Liu Jiaojiao wanted to shout, but Qingge quickly stuffed a piece of cloth into her mouth, and she couldn't say a word.

The two dragged Liu Jiaojiao outside and found a secluded spot where no one was around.

Qingge then pulled the cloth out of her mouth, pushed her to the ground, and kicked her as well.

She added a curse, "Liu Jiaojiao, how dare you cause trouble at the wedding banquet? You deserve a beating!"

Liu Jiaojiao winced in pain, and after a moment, she spoke, "Qingge, you're just a maid in my elder brother's household, what right do you have to hit me?"

"My nephew is getting married, am I not allowed to come to the wedding banquet?"

Tao'er stepped forward, looking down at her, "Liu Jiaojiao, of course she's qualified!"

Let me tell you, Qingge is not my maid, but my future sister-in-law!

You just wait and see!

Liu Jiaojiao stared at Qingge in shock and disbelief.

"And what's wrong with your brain?"

Otherwise, they're shameless!

Our family has long since severed ties with the old house, and my father is not your older brother at all.

My older brother is not your nephew!

Who do you think you are, daring to impersonate my relative?

Liu Jiaojiao was stunned by the rebuke because of the pain, but she still argued back strongly, "Even if your father is not my parents' biological son, we still grew up together. What's wrong with me calling him big brother?"

What's wrong with Tiezhu calling me "little aunt"?

I came to congratulate him on his marriage and have a drink at his wedding, is that not allowed?

Liu Tao'er, don't go too far!

"You invited the entire village, why didn't you invite us?"

"Because you are beasts, you are not worthy!"

We'd rather feed the pigs and dogs with our leftovers than give them to you!

You heartless, ungrateful wretches! Giving you food would be a waste!

"Don't you even think about how you people treated my parents before?"

How dare you come to a banquet now!

Get as far away from me as possible!

Not satisfied with what she had just said, Tao'er also kicked him.

On such a joyous occasion, this unlucky thing had to come and cause trouble; it's just asking for a beating!

"Aren't you afraid of what the villagers will say about you for doing this?"

Liu Tao'er, aren't you afraid that your sister-in-law's family will see you being so cold-blooded and heartless?

Aren't you afraid this marriage will fall through, and your older brother's bride will slip away?

Just like back then...

Liu Jiaojiao threatened.

"You bitch, you dare threaten me?"

"If I don't teach you a lesson, you won't know why flowers are so red!"

Tao'er waved her hand and said, "Qingge, give her a beating so bad that even her own father wouldn't recognize her!"

Smash it in the face!

Isn't she getting married in just a few days?

Let her get married with a pig's head on her head!

Liu Jiaojiao, you asked for this!

"Liu Tao'er, how dare you!"

Qingge did a few warm-up exercises and replied crisply, "Okay, I've been itching to get started!"

Liu Jiaojiao, prepare to be challenged!

"Don't come any closer, don't come any closer, I was wrong..."

Please don't hit me!

Please!

Too late!

Ugh, some people are just so despicable!

After Qingge finished speaking, she gave Liu Jiaojiao a good beating, leaving Liu Jiaojiao with a bruised and swollen face, and her eyes looking like panda eyes.

It's completely unrecognizable from its original form.

After finishing, he clapped his hands and said, "Girl, we're done!"

What will she do?

Tao looked up and saw an old camphor tree that was over ten years old not far away.

She pointed to the tree, "Tie her to that tree!"

"Put her down after the banquet is over. Oh, and Qingge, don't forget to gag her."

"Your idea is much better, young lady!"

With a whoosh, Qingge got the job done!

Liu Jiaojiao was hanging from a tree trunk, her eyes bloodshot with fear. She struggled desperately, trying to scream for help, but she couldn't speak and could only make muffled noises.

In that instant, tears streamed down my face, and suddenly a dripping sound began to rang out.

Tao'er and Qingge suddenly smelled a pungent odor, and the two covered their noses and mouths and retreated a long distance.

"Oh my god, girl, Liu Jiaojiao has wet her pants, it's so dirty!"

unlucky!"

Qingge looked disgusted.

"Qingge, ignore her!"

Let's go back and see what's going on!

And that old man, that shameless old bastard!

"The food we provide isn't just for free!"

Tao clapped her hands and turned to walk back.

Qingge looked at Tao'er with a puzzled expression. "What do you mean, young lady?"

You'll find out soon enough!

Tao'er said mysteriously.
