180 Fight
Qiao Kou, who had been thinking about humiliating Qiao Xuan, got so annoyed. Why did Qiao Wei give up tormenting Qiao Xuan only after a few minutes?
What was she thinking?
Qiao Kou tried to come up with some ways to set her up.
But Qiao Xuan did not get into trouble with her.
No matter how horrible her words sounded, Qiao Xuan listened without countering, and occasionally, she even behaved as if she were guilty.
On the other hand, though Qiao Wei lost interest in speaking with Qiao Xuan, when she saw Qiao Kou bullying Qiao Xuan, she became interested again.
She wished that the two concubine daughters could fight each other.
However, Qiao Xuan was too timid to cause any trouble, which made her lose interest.
Of course, she would not want to get involved.
But the sisters of the Fang Family did not like it. They helped Qiao Xuan out by engaging in a conversation with Qiao Xuan and eased her embarrassment.
Jealous and angry, Qiao Kou did not like it when someone helped Qiao Xuan out. What was the point of helping her? She was just a countryside woman!
She rolled her eyes and screamed. “Oh no! Sister, I just lost my jade in the water, can you help scoop it out? Thanks very much!”
They were all taken aback.
The Fang Family sisters exchanged a look between themselves, and felt helpless.
The Third Miss of the Qiao Family was being so unreasonable!
She could have asked a servant to fish it out rather than let Second Miss get it.
Qiao Wei smiled and said nothing.
Qiao Kou became more arrogant as she snapped. “Sister, you won’t turn me down for such a small thing, right?”
“Of course not.” Qiao Xuan smiled and said to the maid, “Please give me a thin bamboo pole or a wooden stick.”
Qiao Kou asked immediately. “Why a bamboo pole? Why don’t you just go down into the water?”
Qiao Xuan answered shyly. “Just let me try, okay, sister?”
Qiao Kou was stuck speechless. She glared at Qiao Xuan and snorted.
What could she say? She could not come up with a counter to that immediately.
She was not stupid. If she disapproved of her suggestion, it would be visible to everyone that she was just setting her sister up. It was not a glorious action and she needed to save her face.
She had already noticed people looking at her weirdly!
Qiao Kou was pretending to be calm, yet she was feeling humiliated and angry inside her heart.
Qiao Xuan looked as if she were very honest, but she was a tricky one!
The bamboo pole was finally handed over.
Qiao Kou’s jade was in the water grass close to the bank.
With her superpower, Qiao Xuan could see the spot clearly.
She could control the grass with her superpower, so that the grass moved and the jade simply floated out.
Overjoyed, Qiao Xuan had discovered one more function of her superpower.
She had not thought about this, and decided to make use of it properly in the future.
Excited, Qiao Xuan decided to explore the function further. She was going to develop it well.
If she could use the superpower to control some plants, she could even protect herself!
Won’t she be totally invulnerable then?
In front of everyone, Qiao Xuan used the bamboo pole to take hold of one grass blade so the grass was tangled with Qiao Kou’s jade.
