<h4>Chapter 88: Returning Home Rich and Proud 5</h4>
Madam Wu was furious and asked sternly, “Why can’t I be here? Even if Qi Qingyao has broken ties with our family, she’s still a Qi. Can’t Ie to take a look at how she’s been faring?”
Before Ma Sanye could say anything, it was Matron Ma instead who replied unhappily, “And now you’ve taken a look. The youngdy is doing very well with life now!”
“Hmph!”
Madam Wu was so mad that mes were about to spew out of her nose.
She had a thieving look in her eyes like a mouse’s as she scrutinized Qi Qingyao’s clothes. Then, her tone peculiar, she said, “She must be a concubine for some big family if she’s able to put on gold and silver.”
The crowd, “????”
Matron Ma’s expression was dark. “Madam Wu, what are you implying?”
A womanughed at Madam Wu despite herself and mocked, “The daughter that she didn’t want achieved sess in just a few short days, of course, she would be feeling envious and regretful.”
Madam Wu heard this and felt like a cat whose tail had been stepped on. Pointing at Qi Qingyao on the spot, she retorted like a cannon.
“You lot have been turned into fools by money and rice!
“Look at her true self.
“She was an idiot before this! Just a fool who doesn’t know anything.
“Just because she’s no longer stupid now, so what?
“Do you think that she’s literate now or that she knows how to make money?
“She must have used some inappropriate means to get this money.
“As for what they were, just look at what she’s wearing now. Could garments like that be afforded with just a little bit of money? Just those two bracelets alone would fork a hefty sum!
“I admit that when she’s not stupid, she was decent looks—she’s my child, after all. She’s inherited my outstanding and beautiful features! Even if she had three kids with her, there will still be somendlord out there who would desire her beauty. All she needs to do is put a bit of those ttery skills of hers from four years ago to use and she could easily attract andlord!
“Is being somebody’s concubine or maid something worth being arrogant about? And she darese back to this vige to show off? I truly feel ashamed of you! If I were you, I would have dug a hole and buried myself in it!”
The moment Madam Wu said her piece, everyone was looking at her as if they were watching someedy show.
Madam Guo had felt jealous initially. After she heard what Madam Wu said, she felt much more soothed and added, “That’s right, it’s fortunate that the Qi family has broken ties with her. If someone found out that my sister-inw had be some housekeeper, I would be too ashamed to continue living.”
The women in Ma Sanye’s home watched as the duo supported each other’s words. They were a bit speechless at the sight.
They had just been talking with the Qi family’s youngdy.
The girl’s speech and demeanor do not seem to be the same as the person from before…
Back then, they would never have believed that she could earn 20 strings of mace in one month. Who would have thought that in just 11 days, she had not only returned the money to the people but also brought and distributed rice to them?
Wait a minute, could she have really be someone’s concubine…and was just being doted on by her master?
Otherwise, it made no sense that she could have earned such a sess.
Everyone was a little confused.
They slowly turned their heads and looked at Qi Qingyao.
Qi Qingyao was motionlessly seated there but emanated a powerfully condescending aura. She threw a contemptuous nce at Madam Wu who had spoken such acrid words and spat out a few words lightly.
“A green-eyed monster, haha.”
“Qi Qingyao, who are you calling that?” snapped Madam Wu angrily as herplexion turned green.
Qi Qingyao shrugged calmly. “If the shoe fits.”
Matron Ma could not help butugh out loud. “Let her continue being jealous!”
“I’m jealous?”
Madam Wu’s throat seemed to be caught on something, she was so angry she could not say a single word.
