Xiao Yishan fiercely slapped Li Rong’er across the face.

Stunned by the blow, Li Rong’er stared at him in disbelief, “Brother Xiao, you actually hit me!”

“What about hitting you?” Xiao Yishan’s facial expression was like a layer of frost had formed, “You, a woman who stirs up trouble and sows discord, even claimed that Yue’er cuddled up with Li Gui and received rewards, hence she got ten taels of silver from him.

Does Yue’er care for those ten taels?”

“Ten taels of silver is no trifling matter.

With so much money involved, without something going on, which man would be willing to give a woman that much?”

“Still arguing!” Xiao Yishan said icily, “Today, Liu Yuhong was sold by the Liang Family, and she let slip that she had slept with Li Gui.

Li Gui was afraid that their affair on Hanging Neck Mountain would be exposed, so he was extorted for ten taels of silver by Yue’er.

Actually, Yue’er has nothing to do with Li Gui, you are just talking nonsense!”

Li Rong’er’s face turned deathly pale, not expecting that to be the case, and her plan to plant the silver on Su Qingyue to ruin her reputation was futile.

“Fortunately, you didn’t speak nonsense in front of third brother.” Xiao Yishan said icily, “If third brother learned about your baseless gossip, with his temper, even if he had separated from me, he would still directly cripple one of your legs.”

Li Rong’er had witnessed Xiao Yuchuan beating someone before and also knew the current situation of Liu Xianglian.

Liu Xianglian claimed to be clinging to Xiao Yuchuan, then turned around to have relations with two other men on the mountain.

Even a village girl with no shame wouldn’t dare to do such a thing.

Other villagers hadn’t thought about it, but she had suspected it had something to do with Xiao Yuchuan.

But without evidence, no one dared to talk nonsense about it.

She knew all too well not to mess with a man like Xiao Yuchuan.

If he were pushed too far…

Li Rong’er shivered slightly, tears streaming down her beautiful face, “Brother Xiao, I was wrong…”

“The Xiao Family’s prosperity today is all thanks to Yue’er.

As a human being, one cannot lose their conscience.” Xiao Yishan helped her up, “Don’t speak ill of Yue’er again, understand?”

“Oh.” She nodded with tears in her eyes, her hatred for Su Qingyue growing even stronger.

Xiao Yishan glanced at the sky; it was getting close to evening.

He said, “I have something to take care of,” and left the room.

Li Rong’er lingered in the room for a while, then seeing the sky darken, she had no choice but to leave the room to prepare dinner.

Tao Meijiao saw Li Rong’er’s swollen face, with the clear imprint of five fingers indicating the woman had received a slap.

She gestured towards Su Qingyue, “Look at her face, there’s a big palm print on it…”

Su Qingyue glanced over, “No need to say it, she must have been hit by second brother.”

“I think your second brother is actually quite fond of her.” Tao Meijiao said curiously, “How could your second brother bear to hit her?”

Su Qingyue thought for a moment, “She secretly saw Li Gui give me two taels of silver.

She probably spouted nonsense in front of second brother.

Today, second brother found out she wronged me, hence he gave her a slap.”

After hearing this, Li Rong’er’s face turned pale.

Su Qingyue’s guess was frighteningly accurate.

This woman was terrifyingly clever!

She hurried into the kitchen.

By looking at Li Rong’er’s expression, Tao Meijiao knew Su Qingyue was right, “Xiao Yue, you’re really clever.

Judging by Li Rong’er’s reaction, you must have hit the nail on the head.

Li Rong’er might not seem too bad on the surface, but I really don’t like her.”

“That woman is full of schemes; even second brother is misled by her.” Su Qingyue’s demeanor remained as calm as water, “Just ignore her.”
