This was the first time in the life of the starling Xiaolan that someone scolded her in public, and the person who said that was such harsh words as "Shut your bird mouth".

This was also the first time Yan Ruyu saw the starling go so crazy.

When she first heard Su Zhenzhen scolding the starling, she was also a little angry. The starling was indeed a gossipbird and sometimes liked to spread gossip, but she could discipline her bird however she wanted, even put it in a cage, but she could not let others discipline it.

When Su Zhenzhen saw that the starling had exposed her, she was so angry that she picked up a stone from the ground and was about to throw it at the starling.

Yan Ruyu said coldly: "Miss Su."

Since she arrived at Cao's house, she had only spoken a few words to Mrs. Cao when they first met, and hadn't said much since then. When she spoke this time, everyone couldn't help but hold their breath and prick up their ears.

"That's my princess's bird."

"Xiaolan, come here."

The starling immediately flapped its wings and flew over, landing on Yan Ruyu's arm.

The starling held its head high and chest puffed out, looking very proud, with its little eyes looking left and right, just like a lackey who takes advantage of his power to bully others.

Yan Ruyu faced everyone's gaze and was about to speak when the mynah bird started to speak again: "What? Are you dissatisfied? Come and hit me."

Yan Ruyu: "..."

Su Zhenzhen gritted her teeth, looking embarrassed and angry, but she didn't dare to hit the starling again.

"Princess, since it's your bird, you have to take good care of it. What's the point of letting it talk nonsense?"

Yan Ruyu tapped the starling's head with her finger, and raised her eyelids slightly when she heard the words, without any warmth in her eyes: "Are you teaching this princess how to do things?"

It was just a light sentence, but it made people feel a chill in their hearts, like a thin blade, sharp and intimidating.

"Besides, which of Xiaolan's words is nonsense? Did you use the excuse of being dizzy to say bad things about Miss Cao, or did you use the excuse of stopping Master Cai with the intention of sticking to him?"

Su Zhenzhen's face flushed: "It was obviously him..."

"What did he mean? Did he do something bad to you?" Yan Ruyu laughed briefly. "Miss Su, lying requires brains. It's not just about telling lies with your mouth."

"Master Cai is blessed with a baby boy. Today is the baby's full-month banquet. There are many distinguished guests. And it's at his father-in-law's house. He is happy and cautious, trying to avoid any mistakes, fearing that there will be any errors. Is he crazy to provoke you at this time?"

"And this is right here in a corridor where someone could appear at any time? Or, Miss Su, how beautiful and talented are you to make him so distracted and reckless?"

Cai Jili was so excited that every word he had in mind was hit home by Yan Ruyu.

Miss Cao held his trembling fingers and said, "Su Zhenzhen, you said my husband tried to do something bad to you and even took off his clothes and tore his sleeves. Did you open your eyes to see if the sleeves were torn or cut off?"

Yan Ruyu started talking, but when she saw Miss Cao taking over, she said no more and took out a piece of beef jerky to feed the starling.

The starling was eating happily. When it saw Princess Mingzhao looking at it, it stopped eating and asked, "What? Want some?"

Princess Mingzhao asked subconsciously, "Is it delicious?" It smells so good.

Mynah bird blinked and said: "It's delicious, try it."

Princess Mingzhao took what was left in Yan Ruyu's hand and was about to eat it. Before Lu Hu could stop her, she had already put it in her mouth.

Yan Ruyu: "..."

Su Zhenzhen was speechless, so Cai Jili quickly said, "Xia'er, I don't know her. We met in the corridor. She said she felt dizzy, and then she came close to me. I dragged Taozi over to block her and didn't let her get close to me."

Cai Jili looked at the sleeves on the ground and felt very distressed: "It's a pity that this dress was sewed for me by you before you gave birth. I hadn't worn it for a few times when she pulled my sleeves. I cut them off in desperation."

Miss Cao smiled and said, "It's okay, it's just a piece of clothing. I'll make it for you in the future. After today's banquet is over, I'll take you to the princess' dressmaker to buy a few sets."

Cai Jili was happy to see that she was not angry. However, he couldn't help feeling sad when he saw the sleeves - this dress was made by Miss Cao during her pregnancy. Every stitch was full of love. It was such a pity.

Cai Jili looked at Su Zhenzhen again, and was furious: "Xia'er, who is she? She just said such shameless words that I can't even open my mouth to speak."

The servant Taozi said angrily, "Sir, it's not easy to say, so I'll say it!"

"She said she was an unmarried girl and a perfect match for our young master. She also said that after the wife had given birth, her figure would definitely be out of shape and she would still look ugly even if she wore fancy clothes, unlike her fair and graceful figure. Besides, she also knew how to give birth to a child. She also said that she was well-read and could compose poetry and lyrics, and was extremely elegant."

These words are so embarrassing. Not to mention an unmarried woman, even a married person would not dare to say them out loud.

Miss Cao was so angry that she came close to Su Zhenzhen, stared at her and asked, "Is it true?"

Su Zhenzhen was surrounded by people and had already lost all her face. She could only hold on tightly and not miss this opportunity again.

"Yes, I said it," Su Zhenzhen said, "Isn't it true? You don't have any talent to begin with, and you are inferior to me to begin with. What's wrong with that..."

Before she could finish her words, Miss Cao slapped her in the face: "Bitch!"

"You are talented, you are well-read, but did your Su family's poetry and books teach you to seduce other people's husbands in public? I, Cao Qianxia, ​​don't care about such poetry and books!"

Su Zhenzhen covered her red face, her eyes also reddened: "No matter what, your husband was pulling me in this corridor, this is a fact, he touched me, he must be responsible."

Cai Jili said angrily: "I didn't touch you! Don't talk nonsense."

Su Zhenzhen sneered: "Not only did he touch me, he also saw my skin, so if I say yes, it's true."

Cai Jili was strictly taught by his father and only knew etiquette. He had never dealt with such a naughty behavior and was so angry that he didn't know how to respond.

"you you……"

Yan Ruyu frowned slightly, thinking that the son-in-law of the Cao family was too poor at speaking. He was so dumb in quarreling that he was not even as good as a mynah bird.

She glanced at the starling, which was whispering with Princess Mingzhao. Princess Mingzhao's expression changed from time to time, sometimes surprised, sometimes confused. The man and the bird were chatting happily.

Yan Ruyu guessed that after the banquet was over, she would have to borrow the bird even if she didn't want to.

Cai Jili is not good at speaking, but Miss Cao’s slap is pretty good.

She slapped Su Zhenzhen again with her backhand: "Are you so eager to be my husband's concubine? As the mistress of the house, I will teach you a lesson first."

"Pah, pah" came twice in a row.

Madam Cao glanced at Madam Su and said, "Madam Su, what do you think about this?"

Mrs. Su felt that those slaps were no different from slapping her in the face. Her face was burning with embarrassment.

Now she couldn't come back to her senses. How did things turn out like this? How could Su Zhenzhen have the nerve to say such shameless words?

What should she do? Who is she and where is she?

When Madam Cao asked her, she became even more flustered. She didn't dare to offend Madam Cao, but she couldn't give a clear answer.

Just as they were getting anxious, someone outside the crowd exclaimed, "What are you doing?"

Everyone stepped back and took a few steps closer.

Mrs. Su took a look and saw that it was her husband Su Wude.

She opened her mouth and wanted to explain, but the heat on her face reminded her of the shame she had just felt, and she couldn't utter a word in rebuttal.

Su Wude came with Governor Cao, but the servant who brought the news only said that there was something going on, without saying what it was.

Su Wude was originally one step behind Governor Cao. When he looked up and saw his sister being beaten by Miss Cao, he immediately hurried over.

His face was grim, and his tone was full of accusation: "Miss Cao, what do you mean? Even if my sister was disrespectful, you shouldn't treat her like this!"
