Quick Transmigration: The Cannon Fodder Female Supporting Character's Revenge

Xu Yanzong paused, and with his back to her, he said, "You should get some rest."

After he finished speaking, he walked out.

Li Yunshu stared at Xu Yanzong's retreating figure, then collapsed to the ground, lost in thought.

Not long after, Jing'er walked in.

"Young Madam, are you alright?"

She tried to help Li Yunshu up, but Li Yunshu remained seated.

"Where did the young master go?" she asked.

"Young Master, he... he..." Jing'er stammered, as if she dared not speak.

Li Yunshu stared at her and uttered a single word: "Speak!"

"Yes." Jing'er then continued, "The eldest young master went to Aunt Wang's courtyard."

Upon hearing these words, two lines of tears instantly streamed down Li Yunshu's face.

Xu Yanzong's concubines were all taken by his first wife when she was still married.

Since Li Yunshu entered the household, Xu Yanzong has not only stopped taking concubines, but he has also rarely visited his former concubines.

I can't even remember the last time.

Li Yunshu has always been proud of this.

As a result, because of that incident, he actually went to another woman.

"Young Madam, please don't cry."

Jing'er handed Li Yunshu a handkerchief, saying comforting words, but her eyes were somewhat vacant, showing little empathy.

When she cried because of Ah Xi's torment, didn't Li Yunshu also remain indifferent and unresponsive?

Li Yunshu did not take the handkerchief and continued to shed tears silently.

"Qi Ning, it's all Qi Ning!" Li Yunshu murmured to herself.

She realized that Qi Ning had been targeting her from the very beginning.

But why? She clearly treated her well before!

Hearing Li Yunshu muttering Qi Ning's name, Jing'er chimed in, "Young Madam, this whole thing must have been Qi Ning's doing. After all, besides us, she's the one who knows the most about Aunt Lian's affairs."

"She conspired with the Third Young Mistress to deal with you in order to seize your control of the household affairs."

Li Yunshu understood these words without Jing'er having to say them.

But when she repeated it, Li Yunshu's anger surged even more.

"And then there's the Drunken Immortal Pavilion, and the matter of the charity donation last time, one thing after another... Young Madam, are you just going to let her bully you like this?"

"Heh." Li Yunshu chuckled.

She reached up and wiped away her tears, looking at Jing'er and asking, "Then tell me, what should we do?"

She was waiting for Jing'er to say what she wanted to hear.

Jing'er did not disappoint her, and immediately said, "Of course, we should retaliate in kind."

"However, it's quite troublesome to retaliate one thing at a time, to take things back one by one, and to be on guard against her trying to take them again."

Li Yunshu responded and then asked, "So?"

Jing'er's eyes flashed with ruthlessness: "Of course, we should nip it in the bud!"

"Only by truly eliminating her can we prevent future troubles, and those things can be taken back in a perfectly reasonable way."

Li Yunshu was very satisfied with Jing'er's words, and she nodded: "What you said makes sense."

She had long wanted to get rid of Qi Ning completely, and Jing'er's words struck a chord with her.

Li Yunshu got up from the ground, smoothed her clothes, walked to the bed and slowly sat down, still as dignified and composed as the matriarch.

“However, eliminating the root of the problem is not an easy task. I don’t have many reliable and trustworthy people around me, and you are one of them, Jing’er.”

Li Yunshu held Jing'er's hand, looked into her eyes and said, "I'm afraid your Ah Xi will have to help with this matter. After all, he is your husband, and you are one. Moreover, this matter must not be known to the young master."

The next day, following Li Yunshu's instructions, Jing'er summoned Axi to Li Yunshu.

His marital relationship with Jing'er alone was not enough to persuade Axi to do such a risky thing. In the end, it was Li Yunshu who promised a generous reward. Money can move people's hearts, and he finally agreed.

The system immediately informed Qi Ning of everything upon learning of this matter.

Qi Ning had anticipated this, so it wasn't surprising.

"Host, what do you plan to do?" the system asked.

"Of course, it's a counter-strategy."

Qi Ning even planned to proactively create opportunities for them.

This is a good opportunity to finally get rid of them completely.

Because they had previously helped Xu Yanqing recuperate, the two of them would take a walk in the garden every evening after dinner. Later, when he recovered, this habit continued.

That evening, as the two walked around, Qi Ning intentionally or unintentionally headed towards the lake.

Not long after they left, Aji came over and called Xu Yanqing, saying that Chunsheng wanted to report some things about Zuixianlou to him.

Xu Yanqing glanced at Qi Ning and said, "I'll be right back."

"Okay." Qi Ning nodded. "Husband, go ahead and get busy."

After watching Xu Yanqing leave, Qi Ning led Chun Tao on a slow walk around the lake.

"Host, Ah-Xi is hiding behind that rock over there."

Qi Ning could already see the faint dark figure behind it.

"Xu Yanqing told me when he came back."

After a moment, the system said, "Xu Yanqing has finished his business and is heading back."

Upon hearing this, Qi Ning touched her arm and shivered slightly. "Chun Tao, I'm a little cold. Go back and get me a cloak."

Chun Tao exclaimed, "It's all my fault! I forgot to bring it when I came. But isn't it a bit inconvenient for you to be here alone? Why don't we go back early tonight?"

"The second young master said he was coming over. It's alright, just go and come back quickly."

“That’s true.” Chun Tao thought for a moment. It wasn’t far from Guanlan Courtyard, so she handed the lantern to Qi Ning. “This servant will go right away.”
