Seeing that Lin Baoxue also said so, the skeptical expression on her face eased up a lot. She looked at Lin Xiaoqi and the other girl gently and said in a low voice.
"Yes, mother/aunt, you should rest early as well." Lin Baoxue and Lin Xiaoqi nodded obediently and went to their respective rooms to rest. Mrs Niu looked at their backs with a bit of doubt. She didn't know if she was thinking too much, but she always felt that something must have happened today and the two girls weren't willing to talk about it.
The next day, Lin Xiaoqi got up early. Actually, she also wanted to stay in bed for a while, but her body was used to working in the morning, so she couldn't stay in bed. She couldn't sleep in bed, so she decided to go out and relax.
However, just as she walked out of her room, she bumped into Mrs Qin. "Oh, isn't that Xiaoqi?" Didn't you go with Baoxue to Dingyuan Prince's Private Manor to listen to scenes? Why did he come out of his room? Did you do something to get kicked out? "
Mrs Qin immediately put on a contemptuous look when she saw Lin Xiaoqi. Ever since she suffered at Lin Xiaoqi's hands last time, she had hated Lin Xiaoqi so much that the roots of her teeth itched. She actually made her, an elder, lose face in front of so many people.
"Oh, so it's Second Aunt'er. Who do I think she is?" Shouting wildly in the courtyard early in the morning. If others were to hear it, they would probably think it was our Lin Family's home tutor. To think that there would be such a lunatic. But luckily it's Second Aunt'er, after all, there is no one who doesn't know about your style in our Shui Village, so we won't make a fuss over it. "
Lin Xiaoqi wasn't a good person either, she didn't expect to run into Mrs Qin the moment she stepped out of the door. She really did add insult to injury, but this Mrs Qinfei couldn't do anything about it since she wasn't the type of person to be bullied and could only swallow her anger.
"You! "Why do you have no upbringing? No matter what, I'm still you, Second Aunt. How dare you say that to me. Don't you even put me in your eyes?" Hearing Lin Xiaoqi's words, Mrs Qin choked and pointed her trembling index finger at Lin Xiaoqi. She was very angry. The weak little girl from before had now become thorny all over. This was really too much! If she was allowed to continue on like this, would this family still have her status!
"Whether or not I have a home tutor is up to my parents, today's matter should be picked by you, Second Aunt. Why? Also, how come I don't put you in my eyes? If I don't put you in my eyes, then who is the person standing in front of me right now? I definitely won't be able to see you. "
Lin Xiaoqi sneered coldly. She did not take Mrs Qin's threats seriously. She was not like Mrs Niu, letting Mrs Qin and her grandmother bully her. She was too useless. If someone does not offend me, then I will not offend them. However, if someone offends me, then I will return the favor tenfold. This was her standard.
"Lin Xiaoqi, you're really getting more and more capable now. I never thought that I'd have to see just who is in charge of this family. Do you still have any laws?" Mrs Qin trembled at Lin Xiaoqi's words. However, she also knew that she couldn't win against Lin Xiaoqi. After spitting out those harsh words, she turned around and left, fury filling her eyes.
Lin Xiaoqi looked at Mrs Qin's back with disdain. She didn't even put a woman like Mrs Qin in her eyes. She was just a shrew who didn't have anything to do. Could it be that she could turn the tables?
Lin Xiaoqi sighed helplessly as she walked out the door. The air in this world was really good. She should take advantage of such a good time to walk around, otherwise, the weather would get hot soon.
Shui Village was just a small river, but it had to be said that there were a lot of aquatic products in the water, it was just that most of them were young and hadn't grown up yet. If he wanted to eat the fish, he would have to wait a few days.
In the blink of an eye, it was time for them to eat. Lin Xiaoqi thought of the pots of vegetables in Lin Family and felt a little uncomfortable in her heart. She had been here for several days already, but she had never gotten involved in it.
What made things even worse was that the men still had six bowls of food left, but they, the women at the table, only had one bowl. It was such a difference in treatment.
"Ai, life is not so good. No matter what, I have to find a way to earn some money. Now that I'm here, my life is my own. I can't possibly live it all my life, can I?" Lin Xiaoqi sighed with worry. She felt a little sad, but she immediately braced herself. Since she was here, her most important thing was to get used to the environment here as soon as possible and live well. After all, no one wanted to die when they could live again, even though this era was so unfamiliar to her.
With that in mind, Lin Xiaoqi walked home with quick steps, not slow steps, because there were only so many dishes. If she went back late, there probably wouldn't be any more food, so she didn't believe that old lady Mrs Zhang would prepare a serving for her.
Although she really didn't like eating that kind of food, she couldn't let her stomach make things difficult for her either.
"Oh, you actually know how to come back? You're running out so early in the morning and you're not even going to take care of work at home?" When Mrs Zhang saw Lin Xiaoqi walk in, her face darkened as she said in a weird tone.
Grandmother, I'm just sick and haven't fully recovered yet. Besides, there are so many people in this family, how can I not do any work? Before, I worked so hard and never heard you say anything good about me. Lin Xiaoqi narrowed her eyes. She had just entered the door when she was attacked by this old woman. She was so annoyed. Could it be that she couldn't even go out for a walk?
"You …" Mrs Zhang almost failed to catch her breath. She stood up and glared at Lin Xiaoqi, wanting to scold her. But before she could finish, Lin Tiasan stopped her, "Enough!" Why did you make such a ruckus in the morning? Sit down and eat your dinner, and then get back to work! "
Lin Tiasan's loud shout almost scared Mrs Zhang, she who was originally arrogant instantly withered.
Lin Xiaoqi raised her eyebrows and looked at Lin Tiasan in surprise. How did this old man change his personality today? However, this thought only lasted for an instant. She would be happy if no one came to find trouble with her. She didn't want to bring this upon herself.
Mrs Qin originally wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to denounce Lin Xiaoqi, but she didn't expect the old man to interfere, forcing her to swallow her words once again.
Lin Xiaoqi sat down to eat the sweet potato as if nothing had happened, completely ignoring the vicious gazes of Mrs Qin and Mrs Zhang. On the other hand, Mrs Niu and Lin Baoxue were the ones who were trembling with worry for Lin Xiaoqi.
"Why are all of you looking at me like that? Let's eat!" As Lin Xiaoqi was eating happily, she suddenly found that everyone's eyes were on her. She was stunned for a moment and looked at them in confusion. Although the food wasn't very delicious, it could still be eaten to fill the stomach. What's wrong with these people today?
"Hmph. You are indeed an uneducated child. You only care about eating your own food." Mrs Qin snorted coldly and muttered. Although it wasn't loud, it was enough for everyone to hear clearly.
"Then, Second Aunt, your words mean that you're blaming me for not eating? Did I stop you? "No way, so don't slander others and trouble others before they are uneducated. See if you are educated enough to talk about things that you don't even have?" Lin Xiaoqi casually threw down those words before continuing to eat her own food. She definitely wouldn't go against her own stomach.
"Xiaoqi …" Mrs Niu couldn't help but sweat a little when she saw Lin Xiaoqi like this. She secretly tugged at the corner of Lin Xiaoqi's clothes and winked at her, trying to stop Lin Xiaoqi from talking.
However, Lin Xiaoqi didn't seem to hear him. Mrs Qin was speechless after hearing his words. Dad, mom, look, Xiaoqi is getting more and more impolite. She's already talked back to me, and she might do something outrageous in the future. You guys can't just ignore that! "
Mrs Qin turned her head to look at Mrs Zhang and Lin Tiasan with a wronged expression, as if she had suffered a huge grievance.
