Quick Wear: The Bad Girl is Reborn and No Longer Confused

Xu Tao paused while drinking porridge. It seemed that the day for her parents to come look for her had not yet come.

"Osmanthus, did the person here tell me what the person outside looks like?"

"I told you, she's a tall woman."

Xu Tao frowned. A tall woman? She seemed to have never come into contact with such a woman since she entered the mansion. She couldn't figure it out, so she simply went to the corner gate and found out who it was.

"Auntie, why are you here?"

Xia He breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the person. This mansion was too grand. She was scared and afraid that she had found the wrong place.

"Taotao, this is one ounce of silver your parents asked me to bring you. They're busy with the autumn harvest and won't be coming to see you, so it's just right that I came to the city to bring it to you."

Xia He handed over the purse and then a bundle, "Auntie doesn't have much to give you. Inside are homemade pancakes and dried mushrooms. Don't be disgusted."

"Aunt, what are you talking about? I love the pancakes you make. Please wait here while I ask for leave so we can have dinner together."

"Oh, no need, I'll just..."

Before Xia He could finish her words, she saw the little girl running away. She didn't dare to shout loudly and could only continue waiting where she was.

Xu Tao quickly walked back to Mingxiang Garden, frowning slightly. She remembered that it seemed that her aunt had sent her here in her previous life. At that time, she was busy applying eye drops to other maids and had no time to take care of her. Now thinking about it, it seemed very wrong.

She knew that her parents were most looking forward to seeing her every three months. They had never missed the date in the past three years. How could they not come now? Something must have happened.

When I saw my father again in my previous life, it seemed that his legs were a little lame, and my mother looked pale and sick.

She felt increasingly uneasy, her feet moving rapidly. As she turned a corner, she bumped into a sturdy chest, causing her to groan. A mist formed in her eyes. She raised her eyes and saw the person coming. She immediately knelt and saluted, saying, "This servant greets the Fourth Young Master."

"You little maid, what are you thinking about when you walk so hurriedly?"

When Wen Youchu saw the little maid's gaze, he felt inexplicably guilty. He seemed to have walked too fast just now. It was all his elder brother's fault for forcing him to study.

He had clearly agreed with his mother that he would just pass the exam to become a scholar, but why did it become a juren when it came to his elder brother? And would it have to become a jinshi when it came to his father? If that's the case, how could he have a good life in the future?

"Someone came to visit us just now. I was worried so I walked faster. Is the Fourth Young Master okay? I'll go get Doctor Luo."

Wen Youchu waved his hand, she was not that precious, how could she be hurt by such a small thing? He thought of the little maid in front of him, wasn't she the maid who saved his younger sister?

"Fourth Young Master, if you don't have any instructions, I will take my leave."

Xu Tao hurriedly bowed and left, and it was easy for her to get permission to return to Mingxiang Garden.

"Taohua, do you want me to send a few servants to accompany you home?"

Xu Tao thought about it and decided to take advantage of the situation. "Thank you, my lady."

Wen Ruyi rolled her eyes. She had never called herself a servant since she came to her side, and now she was being polite to her. She would punish her severely when she came back.

Xu Tao not only got two servants, but also got Shaoyao and Zhang Mama to accompany her, so she wouldn't be gossiped about bringing the servants back.

Originally, the lady wanted to bring five of them back with her, but she refused. If she went back openly, she would definitely not start a fight. She would just want to serve as a deterrent. She would also have to do it in private.

When Xia He got on the carriage, she was completely confused. She just came to give some silver, so how could she be so lucky as to get on the carriage? In her daze, she forgot about her dear husband who was waiting outside.

"Auntie, please eat a bun first."

It would probably take until noon to get from the city to Guihua Village. When the carriage arrived in front of the bun stall, Xu Tao stopped the carriage and bought all the meat buns the boss had, giving each person an oil-paper bag.

"Taotao, I've already had breakfast, you can keep it."

Xu Tao stuffed the oil-paper bag directly into her aunt's arms and said, "Aunt, if you don't eat it, it won't stay this way for another day. Tell me the truth, is there something wrong with my parents?"

Seeing this, Xia He knew what the child wanted to do. She couldn't hide it when they got there, so it would be better to tell Taotao in advance so that he could be mentally prepared. However, family disgrace should not be made public, so she just blinked her eyes.

"Aunt, just be frank. Mother Zhang and Sister Shaoyao are both family."

The two people in the carriage felt relieved after hearing this, and felt that their daily care for the little girl was worthwhile.

Xia He no longer hesitated and told everything she knew.

Ever since his eldest daughter was sold, Xu Erzhu has lost all hope in the Xu family and wants to sever ties with them. However, Old Man Xu refuses to give in and there is no room for maneuver, unless the couple gives up their reputation and their children don't have to get married or take the imperial examinations.

The couple had no choice but to give in, eating and drinking at home and doing nothing. They originally thought that even if they couldn't sever their relationship, they would be separated from the family. That way, even if they wanted to sell their own child in the future, they would have to get their consent.

But no one knows what's wrong with Old Man Xu. He can't control them and he refuses to give in, saying he won't split up no matter what.

The family can only make do with this, it disgusts you and me.

This time, the incident happened because Xu Sizhu's wife was pregnant and returned to the village from the city to take care of the baby. She was unhappy to see that her second sister-in-law did everything, so she always tried to bully her, but she didn't respond, which made her have stomachaches several times.

This made the old couple very sad. After all, the baby in the belly might be their own scholar grandson. While Xu Erzhu was going up the mountain, they broke into the house and started fighting.

Her mother hated the old couple so much that if it weren't for them, she wouldn't have been separated from her daughter. She also tried to attack them, but she was no match for them and was at a disadvantage. She was pushed to the foot of the kang by the old couple and fell into unconsciousness.

When Xu Erzhu returned home and saw that his wife's forehead was covered in blood, he went crazy. He asked a doctor to see his wife and then started smashing things around. Finally, he was controlled by Xu's family and his leg was broken.

If they hadn't taken Xu Tao, who worked as a maid in the Wen family, into consideration, they would have directly taken the lives of Xu Erzhu and Xia Miao.

Xu Tao clenched her fists. If her father didn't look 60% similar to Old Man Xu, she would have suspected that her father was not her biological son.

Both Zhang's mother and Shaoyao sighed. They had seen cruel things, but never anyone as cruel as this. This was their own child, and yet they had another child's leg broken.

The carriage fell into a strange silence. Xu Tao's fists creaked as he clenched them. "Broken leg, right? Bleeding head, right? Okay, I'm fine."

"Bah, you bastard, you dare to fight with me? I beg you to strike me dead! This is the first time I've seen a daughter-in-law who dares to fight with her mother-in-law.

And you, an unfilial thing, dare to smash things, right? I'll break your legs and see how you can smash things. I'll call a matchmaker tomorrow and sell you two bastards!"
