Chapter 631 - 631 So angry
After Breaking Off My Marriage, I Became A Powerful Minister's Treasure
631 So angry
After hearing their criticism, Xiao Baili smiled.
âMay I ask what I said wrong?
âFirst of all, Miss Tu is older than me. Isnât it inappropriate for her to call me sister?
âSecondly, I donât know Miss Tu well. We havenât even spoken before. I donât think itâs appropriate for her to call me Sister Xiao. Is there a problem?
!!
âThirdly, what do you mean by Miss Tu lowering her status to greet me, but I was very rude? Youâre the ones who disturbed our meal without an invitation. Youâre the ones who are being rude.
âBesides, if Miss Tu is a young lady, am I not?
âMy brother is the magistrate of Northern City, and his position is higher than that of the Tu familyâs master. My sister-in-law is a first-rank princess, and my mother is also a county lord conferred by the emperor. Miss Tuâs mother is not even a first lady. May I ask, in what way is my status lower than hers? â
Xi Rui, who originally wanted to speak, couldnât help but smile when he heard Xiao Bailiâs rebuttal.
Xiao Baili had been with Shi Qingluo for a long time, and she was also very good at manipulating others.
Each of her responses hit the bullâs eye, and they were all reasonable. He wondered how these people would refute
As expected, the two young ladies were stunned and didnât know where to start.
One of the young ladies pouted. âYouâre just a farmerâs daughter. Youâre just lucky to be a young lady of an officialâs family.â
Xiao Baili didnât deny it. Instead, she said, âSo what if Iâm lucky? My brotherâs rank is higher than your fatherâs.â
âIf weâre really talking about status, Iâm not any lower than you guys. I donât know why you guys are so prideful.â
The young lady choked again. âYou!â
Tu Yujiao didnât expect Xiao Baili to be such a glib talker. She was just like Shi Qingluo, a village girl who kept pestering her.
The other young Masters didnât expect this little girl from the Xiao family to have such a sharp tongue.
The few among them spoke up.
âMiss Xiao, youâre in the wrong.â
âMiss Tu also wants to be on good terms with you, so she took the initiative to come over and greet you, but you keep blaming her. Itâs indeed a bit rude.â
âYeah, arenât you going a little too far?â
This time, before Xiao Baili could speak, Xi Rui spoke in a cold tone.
âI wonât be polite in this. What do you want?
âYouâre just a bunch of descendants from a small family. How dare you talk nonsense in front of us? Who do you think you are? Do you need our Baili to be polite to you?
âBailiâs sister-in-law is a first-rank princess, and her mother is a consort, who was married to Prince Yi. She doesnât need to be polite with anyone in Northern City.â
Xi Rui stood up and looked at them sarcastically. âHow noble do you think you are? Donât think too highly of yourself.
âIf your so-called young masters were in the capital and had to clean my shoes, I would have complained that their hands were too rough.â
Then he looked at Tu Yujiao and the other two women. âYouâre still too young to plot against Baili.
âYou donât even know her, yet youâre here calling her sister. Your face is bigger than a basin for vegetables, you are so thick-skinned.
âYou guys are young ladies of aristocratic families? If you were in the capital, you wouldnât even be taken in as concubines, let alone be someoneâs wife.
âFor example, Iâm a well-known playboy in the capital. Girls like you come to my door and serve as my servant girls to wash my feet, but I will despise you for your clumsiness.â
Xi Rui had been the domineering one in the capital for so long, and he was used to doing whatever he wanted.
But now that he had been with Shi Qingluo for a long time, his mouth had become particularly vicious.
If they still didnât know what was good for themselves, then he would make a move.
Xi Ruiâs vicious tongue left the young masters and young ladies dumbfounded.
The young mastersâ faces turned green with anger. Xi Rui was too much. He actually despised their hands for being too rough to do shoe cleaning.
The young ladies were so angry that their eyes turned red.
This wastrel was too much. He actually said that no one wanted them as concubines and that he wouldnât even bother about them if they were to wash his feet.
Tu Lihuanâs expression also changed. âYoung Master Xi, your words are too much.â
Xi Rui raised an eyebrow at him. âIâve already said that. What can you do about it?
âThe so-called number one family in Northern City is only so-so in a remote place like Northern City. If you go to the capital, the Tu family is nothing.
âAnd you guys, do you really think that youâre young masters? Youâre not even worthy of carrying shoes for us in the capital.â
He snorted. âI can stomp you to death with one foot.â
â
He was not bragging, the children of the local aristocratic families who went to the capital had to bow to him.
Those who were too high-profile and really thought highly of themselves would definitely be provoked so much that they wouldnât want to go to Beijing again.
His words made Tu Lihuan and the others âfaces turn even uglier.
However, they couldnât make a rebuttal.
After all, in the capital, they were nothing compared to the rich young masters.
Especially for someone like Xi Rui, who came from the public administrative house and was doted on by the empress dowager and the emperor, he could do whatever he wanted in the capital.
When they went to the capital, they would usually hide far away and would never provoke them.
âYou said that âif we were to go to the capitalâ, but this is the northern border,â one of the young masters said as he was unconvinced.
It meant that this was their territory.
Xi Rui chuckled. âSo what if we are at the northern border? If I want to step on you, Iâll still be able to step on you.
...
âIf I can do whatever I want in the capital, I can do the same at the northern border.
âDonât forget that the magistrate of Northern City is my best friend. The most powerful governor in the North Princedom is my third cousin, and the highest-ranking prince, Prince Yi, is my youngest uncle.â
He deliberately picked his ears and looked at these people with disdain. âWho are you? Tell me.
âEven Liang Mingyu, whoâs in charge of Prince Jinâs residence, has to be polite to me. Who do you think you are?â
Tu Lihuan and the others were speechless. They really donât know so many people with great identities
In fact, their fatherâs position was not even as high as Xiao Hanzhengâs.
But could he argue like this? No matter what, they were all large aristocratic families in Northern City!
But if Xi Rui wanted to compete like this, they wouldnât be able to match with him.
Furthermore, now that Prince Jin was crippled and Liang Mingyu had joined Prince Yi, who was Xi Ruiâs uncle and the third prince, who had military power in his hands were in charge, this wastrel could really do whatever he wanted in the northern border.
They were so angry!
The two young ladies were also furious. This was the first time they had been humiliated like this.
...
If Xi Ruiâs words were to reach Northern City, how could they get married?
One of the young ladies couldnât help but glare at him with red eyes. âXi Rui, youâre too much. You actually dare to speak so harshly to a young lady. Where are your manners and self-restraint?â
Xi Rui raised an eyebrow. âManners and self-restraint are meant for people who are worthy. Are you worthy?â
The young lady trembled with anger. âYou!â
Then she covered her face and ran away in tears. She obviously couldnât stand this insult.
Xi Rui continued to use his venomous tongue.
âShe is quite self-aware and knows that the ugly also causes more troubles, so she doesnât want to embarrass herself in front of me.â
âPfft!â Xiao Baili , XIao Erlang, and the others who were watching the show couldnât help but laugh.
The smile in Xiao Bailiâs eyes deepened. Not to mention that brother Ruiâs mouth was very venomous.
These people were most proud of their so-called identities, and Brother Rui used his identity to suppress them. After he used his poisonous mouth, these people could not refute
After all, in terms of status, he was noblest one here.
