Chapter 8 Warning
Smiling and speaking ironically, Liu Zhi took out a newly made dress and gestured in front of Xi Rao, "It's really pretty, Xi Rao, although there is a birthmark on her face...but her figure is very graceful and charming. , These clothes are really suitable for her to wear."

Xi Rao looked down, the shirt and sleeves were an inch shorter than the shirt in front of her, and the hem of the skirt was obviously more than an inch away from her ankle.Although the clothes are new and the fabric is also high-quality silk, it is obviously a big difference from my height. I think this clothes was made by Liu Zhi for Mu Yuwei, but because the style is a little outdated, I brought it to myself .

"The wedding date has not yet been set, and the aunt has prepared the dowry for Xirao? It seems that the aunt is really anxious to drive Xirao out of the house?" Xirao raised her head, staring at the bowed willow branch with a smile on her face, mocking road.

Liu Zhi looked up, did this bold word really come from this damn girl?

"Xirao, what are you talking about! Your wedding date has been set, and you are married with Yuwei, and the aunt has worked so hard for you, and you actually took the aunt's kindness as a donkey's liver and lungs. What a mother! No mother!" Liu Zhi couldn't hold back her fiery temper, she flung the clothes in her hand on the ground, raised her hand, and made a gesture to slap Xi Rao across the face.

Xirao's eyes were gloomy, and she raised her hand neatly to hold Liu Zhiyang's palm in mid-air, pushed back hard, and warned sharply: "I am not the Mu Xirao of the past, I warn you, I want to bully you again It's not so easy for us mother and daughter!"

As soon as the words fell, the willow branch held by the arm staggered back several steps.Looking at the fierceness in Xi Rao's eyes, Liu Zhi suddenly felt a little strange and scared.

"Okay, okay! It's the other way around, how dare you touch me! If you marry into Prince Rui's mansion in the future, you may not be able to embarrass General Mu's mansion. I will go to the palace and tell the empress to send some nuns to come here." I will teach you the etiquette in the palace!" Liu Zhi steadied her body and shouted angrily at Mu Xirao, who had a calm face.

"Okay, Xirao is so scary. Xirao is here waiting for you at any time! Please take the vixen's things and leave here! I warn you again, I, Mu Xirao, am not easy to bully!" Mu Xirao grabbed Liu The pearl hairpin stuck in her bun was ruthlessly thrown at her feet.

"You...you have the guts! Tell you, don't expect me to buy you a penny dowry! Hmph!" Liu Zhi's face was slightly red, and he walked past Xirao angrily, bent over and picked it up under his feet. The pearl hairpin, then strode forward, picked up the clothes on the stone table, and ran away in desperation.

Seeing her fleeing in embarrassment, Li Xuelian's face was full of worry, and after the figure with willow branches disappeared, she stepped forward and accused: "What's wrong with you today, you were not so ignorant before, she is also your aunt after all. , is the hostess of the entire Mu family, if you humiliate her so much today, I'm afraid she will make things difficult for you in the future..."

"Mother! I used to be bullied by them because I was too cowardly. After Rao'er came back to life this time, Rao'er realized that she was too useless before. From now on, Xirao will protect Mother and stop letting them Bullying!" Xi Rao had an unruly expression on her face, her eyes were full of ruthlessness, but she thought in her heart that she should go to Mu Mingyuan to get back the antidote.

Li Xuelian was stunned, this Xi Rao exuded a kind of fierce stubbornness all over her body, and the cruelty in her eyes made her feel strange and scary.

The courtyard of Mu Mansion is deep and full of flowers and plants.The small courtyard where Xirao lives is in the most remote northwest corner, and it is necessary to pass through the back garden of Mu Mansion and several long corridors to reach the main courtyard of the big house.

There are artificial springs in the main courtyard, and various peonies are planted around the wall courtyard, blooming beautifully in the sun, and several colorful butterflies are flying around the flowers.This scene is as beautiful as a landscape painting.

Xi Rao originally wanted to go to the study to find Mu Mingyuan, but was told by his servants that he was in the big room.Xi Rao wanted to force him to take out the antidote and came to this place.

Standing in the yard tens of meters away, one could hear low and warm laughter coming from the house.

Xi Rao raised her head, although she was a little far away, she could still see the smile on Mu Mingyuan's face. The family of three sat on a round table, laughing and chatting, very harmonious.

Looking at the harmonious family, and at the extravagant furnishings of the main courtyard where Liu Zhi lives, in comparison, his own dilapidated small courtyard is nothing like this.

She sneered in her heart, so it seemed that Mu Mingyuan didn't like her mother and daughter, and with his personality, he would definitely not obediently hand over the antidote, Xi Rao suddenly realized that it was really unwise to seek him desperately.

Giving up the idea of ​​asking Mu Mingyuan for the antidote, Xi Rao quietly returned to her yard.Now it's only a month before she gets married, she only hopes that after she marries Prince Rui, that old man Mu Mingyuan will keep his word and come up with the antidote.

"Xirao, where have you been? Come in, Mother has something to tell you." Li Xuelian, who had been looking for Mu Xirao for a long time, saw her come back, took her hand and entered the room, from the bottom of the cabinet A dark red wooden box was taken out of the drawer, with a small lock on it.

Li Xuelian took out the key to open the box, and there were some extremely valuable jewelry inside.

"Xi Rao, you are getting married soon, and my mother can't afford any decent dowry. You take these few jewelry and buy something useful, and buy something for yourself. Don't let yourself be wronged by marrying." Li Xuelian Taking out the jewelry from the wooden box, she smiled helplessly. If she hadn't been incompetent as a mother, she wouldn't have let such a good girl suffer with her.

Xi Rao's eyes were startled, she didn't know that the meek and weak Li Xuelian secretly hid some valuable things.

"These were given to me by your father when I was just with you, and I kept them secretly, just because I was afraid that I would use them one day. Raoer, mother is getting old, and mother hopes that you will live well after marriage. Being bullied." Li Xuelian said in a low voice, her eyes were filled with tears again.She owed Xi Rao, and she might not be able to make it up in this lifetime.

Xi Rao looked at her, although she was dressed in plain clothes, but the corners of her brows couldn't hide her past elegance, she must have been a beauty once.It's just a pity that such a good woman followed the wrong man, so that she ended up in such a state.This ancient woman is really pitiful and pathetic.

Pulling the corner of her mouth, Xi Rao showed a sweet smile, her brows and eyes were curved, and there was a hint of surprise.

"Mother, don't worry. Xirao will protect you and live a good life. As long as I marry, everything will change. I don't want these jewelry, I keep them for you." Mu Xirao put those jewelry back In the wooden box, she wasn't afraid that she would lose face if she didn't have a dowry.When others see it, they will only say that General Mu is eccentric, and he is dragging the Mu family to lose face.

Li Xuelian's face darkened, gloomy and somewhat displeased.Putting the jewelry back into Xi Rao's hands, she said with a stern expression: "I left these for you, if you don't take them, I won't recognize you as a daughter!"
