The Evil Mother-in-law: Torment Children, Work Hard, Be Rich! Chapter 294: Sichuan Opera Face-Changing

Xian Xian’s smile didn’t have ti to retract and fell into Tong Huaqiong’s eyes.

At this mont, not only Liu Yueer, but even Tong Huaqiong wanted to tear apart the corners of Xian Xian’s mouth.

"What play?" Xian Xian’s smile instantly faded, replaced by a look ready to cry.

Is this Sichuan Opera face-changing?

Tong Huaqiong thought Xian Xian was born in the wrong era. If she had lived in her previous life, Xian Xian would definitely be a nominee for best actress at major film festivals.

Such seamless transitions, even appearing on variety shows, could create a huge storm and attract a wave of attention.

"What play? Let’s have a good talk about it." Tong Huaqiong mocked.

"Mother, don’t be fooled by her."

Liu Yueer was furious.

Originally, she and Gu Dashu had reconciled, and the family of three happily walked around town for a day. Not only did Gu Dashu buy her things, but he also sent many Mid-Autumn Festival gifts to her maternal ho.

Unexpectedly, Xian Xian chased them to the hotel, ruining her good mood for the day.

If she didn’t trust Gu Dashu’s character, she really would have been deceived by Xian Xian.

But she just couldn’t understand what Xian Xian saw in Gu Dashu.

Which young man at the Tianxiang Building wasn’t richer than Gu Dashu, or more charming than him?

Tong Huaqiong said to Liu Yueer, "If this bit of trickery could fool , then what business would I be doing in the city."

Tong Huaqiong then turned to Xian Xian and said, "Miss Xian Xian, don’t think I don’t know what you’re up to. It’s just that Gu Dashu passed your prior test, and you refuse to accept it. You don’t believe there truly exists a man who can withstand temptation, and you’ll only be satisfied if you drag Gu Dashu down."

Xian Xian was willing to tell her everything was instructed by the second son of Jin Fengxiang, turning around and continuing to cozy up to Gu Dashu. This kind of behavior seed absurd no matter how you looked at it.

This was not hard for Tong Huaqiong to understand at all.

A girl like Xian Xian despises n, yet wants to conquer them.

Encountering a man like Gu Dashu who isn’t swayed by temptation only further ignites her desire to conquer.

Especially seeing Gu Dashu’s attitude toward Liu Yueer stimulates her even more.

Aren’t you loyal to your wife? Aren’t you immune to temptation?

Then I’ll drag you down. I want to see how long your loyalty lasts.

Xian Xian felt a little embarrassed after being exposed by Tong Huaqiong, but she insisted in front of Gu Dashu, "Mr. Tong, I don’t understand what you’re saying."

Tong Huaqiong thought, go ahead, keep pretending!

What a white lotus flower.

"Don’t beat around the bush with . Let tell you, you can flirt with Dashu all you want, but you shouldn’t bully my daughter-in-law. They are both won, what has my daughter-in-law ever done to provoke you? I won’t care what you do to Dashu in the future, but if you hurt my daughter-in-law, I won’t let you off."

What Tong Huaqiong despises most about Xian Xian is that she antagonized Liu Yueer.

To be honest, yesterday, any woman in Liu Yueer’s position, seeing a woman from the brothel tugging at her man’s sleeve, would be furious.

Liu Yueer handled it very well. She didn’t lose her temper on the spot and didn’t go looking for Xian Xian but rather "dealt with" her own man.

Even if today she scolded Xian Xian for seducing Gu Dashu, it was only because Xian Xian acted seductively to intentionally provoke Liu Yueer.

All in all, Tong Huaqiong felt Liu Yueer wasn’t wrong.

But Xian Xian was clearly bullying Liu Yueer today.

Tong Huaqiong’s words were like a heavy blow, almost making Xian Xian erupt in anger out of embarrassnt.

Xian Xian indeed bullied Liu Yueer.

Besides wanting to see how valuable Gu Dashu’s loyalty was, she was also irritated by Gu Dashu’s attitude toward Liu Yueer.

Even she didn’t know how dark her thoughts were.

She deliberately "seduced" Gu Dashu in front of Liu Yueer, not realizing that she harbored resentnt and arrogance toward all good won.

Aren’t you all good won? Then I’ll make you lose face in public.

So what if you’re respectable won; you still can’t keep your n close.

Especially soone like Liu Yueer, a rural bumpkin, with whom Gu Dashu seems to prefer.

Xian Xian was annoyed just seeing it.

"Xian Xian, every woman entering the brothel has her reasons. I don’t know yours, but you must have your hardships. However, you shouldn’t take out your resentnt on Yue Er, nor should you harbor thoughts of competing with Yue Er. Even if you compete with Yue Er, what does winning prove? Does it prove your charm or that Gu Dashu can’t resist temptation?"

Xian Xian felt a little startled by Tong Huaqiong’s sharp wit.

Perhaps even she never realized that she was jealous of Liu Yueer and wanted to compete with her.

"It wasn’t Yue Er who sent you into the brothel, nor was it Yue Er who disappointed you in n. You don’t dare to retaliate against those who sent you into the brothel, nor do you truly dare to take on n, so you only take your anger out on innocent Yue Er, who was caught up in your personal battle. You have charm, you’re beautiful, talented, far better than my daughter-in-law, you don’t need to conquer Dashu to prove your appeal."

Tong Huaqiong’s words were like a sharp knife cutting deep into Xian Xian’s heart.

Xian Xian felt like a monkey with her backside fully exposed to Tong Huaqiong.

Tong Huaqiong saw through her completely.

Xian Xian felt very embarrassed.

After a while, Xian Xian said, "Mr. Tong, I was just joking with Brother Gu, nothing serious."

Tong Huaqiong’s voice carried a bone-chilling coldness, "My son and daughter-in-law are from the countryside, they don’t take jokes lightly. Don’t joke like that again in the future."

Xian Xian hastily bowed to Tong Huaqiong and lowered her head to leave around her.

Tong Huaqiong said, "Miss Xian Xian, the human heart cannot withstand tests, and human nature cannot resist temptation. Whoever uses testing others’ human nature as a guise will end up outsmarting themselves."

Xian Xian paused, then hurried away as if fleeing from a famine.

Tong Huaqiong nodded silently, seeing Xian Xian like this, she still had a bit of sha.

Hopefully, she would take it to heart and not think about conquering Gu Dashu further.

After Xian Xian left, Liu Yueer and Gu Dashu took Yaozu and followed Tong Huaqiong back to the room.

"Yaozu, go to your aunt’s room and look for Sister Man Er." Liu Yueer sent Gu Yaozu away and then, with a sarcastic tone, said to Gu Dashu, "Looks like you’ve developed skills in the city, even girls from Tianxiang Building co to seduce you now, do you feel proud inside?"

Liu Yueer hadn’t cald down, and complained to Gu Dashu.

"She intentionally ca to pick a fight, didn’t you hear what mother said? She feels imbalanced being sold to the brothel and is taking it out on us."

Gu Dashu also felt aggrieved; he ended up rescuing soone and sohow made an enemy.

Earlier, what Xian Xian said scared him silly, fortunately, his mother saw through everything.

"Mother, I saw the second son of Jin Fengxiang today, guess what?"

Gu Dashu recalled passing by Jin Fengxiang today and hearing soone shout "second son." Given they were in the sa trade, upon hearing it was Jin Fengxiang’s second son, he paid extra attention. And what he saw was shocking; this second son was exactly the one pestering Xian Xian that day.

What a coincidence!

Gu Dashu has never been a stupid person, even in his past chaotic days, he was wise in worldly matters. He connected the dots and guessed he might have been caught in Xian Xian and Jin Fengxiang’s second son’s trap.

His mother always said that now people see him as the second owner of Taohua Dessert, a prestigious status, and advised him to be wary of others scheming against him. Before coming to the city, he scoffed at this idea, but now he couldn’t help but admire his mother’s foresight.
