The Spirited Daughter-in-law and the Mountain Man

Chapter 925: 925 spit saliva into the cup Chapter 925: 925 spit saliva into the cup Li Rong’er looked at Xiao Yishan with an expression of deep emotion.

“Brother Xiao…”

“You two are nothing but shameless hounds, don’t put on a show of deep affection in front of me, it’s disgusting,” Tao Meijiao had no inclination to be polite.

Li Rong’er felt angry inside, but since her adversary was a young lady of high status and she came from a humble background, she dared not confront her directly.

Su Qingyue read the facial expression of her second brother and knew that his emotions were complex.

When he was in a good mood, he could be very kind, but when he was confused, he would be a complete mess.

Moreover, speaking of which, even if her second brother was wrong, she had clearly rejected him first.

That was that, then.

Tao Meijiao thought about Xiao Yishan dividing up so many fields and felt distressed for Qingyue, “Xiao Yue, Xiao Yishan took more than 500 taels from you, which is not a small sum…”

“My second brother knew full well that after tearing up my deed of sale, it could no longer hold me,” Su Qingyue said, although she had never taken the deed seriously.

“Yet, he still chose to tear it up.

Before the family divided, he looked after me continuously, and I owe him for that kindness.

Besides, when I asked my second brother to back down, it was already under his name, and even if he didn’t want to back down, I couldn’t ignore his feelings entirely.

It’s not like I could actually take his life.”

If it really came down to killing, she wouldn’t hesitate.

But her second brother’s crime was not worthy of death.

“That’s true,” said Tao Meijiao, who knew that more than 500 taels was a fortune to anyone else, but for the ‘Unnamed’ divine doctor, who had the reputation of the world’s number one divine doctor, it was merely the price for half a consultation.

To employ her services, she was priced at one thousand taels of silver per visit.

Although the extravagant fee was set by the Estate Owner of Pear Blossom Villa to honor Haotian, there were still many rich people in the world who sought the ‘Unnamed’ divine doctor for medical attention.

Now, many people were desperately seeking her out, but unfortunately, the ‘Unnamed’ divine doctor was nowhere to be seen.

Staying in this small Wushan Village was indeed a waste of her talents.

Li Rong’er was very opportunistic.

Even though Tao Meijiao didn’t offer her a pleasant look, she still moved a stool over enthusiastically for her, “Miss Tao, please take a seat.”

“Go pour me a cup of tea,” Tao Meijiao ordered bluntly as she took a seat.

“…” Li Rong’er knew she was being put in her place, and bit her lip in frustration without moving.

Xiao Yishan said displeasingly, “Miss Tao, I respect you as a guest, but please don’t make things difficult for Rong’er.”

“As you said yourself, I am a guest,” she retorted unpleasantly.

“Is pouring a cup of water for a guest such a hardship?”

Xiao Yishan’s face was cold as he spoke, “Rong’er, go and pour her a cup of water.”

Li Rong’er went to the kitchen, filled a cup with water, and as she looked from the kitchen at Tao Meijiao’s beautiful yet disgusting face, she thought scornfully, “Hmph!

I’m not your servant from the Tao Mansion, and yet you dare order me around!

If it weren’t for the fact that I’m not yet married to Xiao Yishan and my position is not secure, do you think I’d let you boss me around?”

Glancing at the water in the cup, she spitefully spat a mouthful of saliva into it.

Su Qingyue happened to see her action and smiled at Tao Meijiao, “Meijiao, seems like you’re about to drink Li Rong’er’s saliva.”

Tao Meijiao’s facial expression stiffened for a moment, “She spat in the cup?”

Qingyue playfully asked, “Or shall we have her drink her own saliva?”

“What a great idea,” agreed Tao Meijiao.

The villagers who were watching the commotion stayed outside the door, while Xiao Yuchuan, Xiao Yishan, and Zhou Fuquan continued laying bricks for the wall of the kitchen after having greeted Tao Meijiao.

All the guys had heard the exchange between Su Qingyue and Tao Meijiao.

They had been wondering why Li Rong’er would do something as nasty as spitting in a cup; now she was in for it.
