Chapter 123 Reborn Scheming Woman from a New Era × Husband in an Arranged MarriageEducated YouthComr
Du Xiang thoughtfully covered Shi Xiaobao's mouth and squatted down to grab his hair.
Looking at his terrified eyes, I felt a little bored. How could he be afraid?
Shi Dabao was even more foolish, but Du Xiang managed to get some information out of him.
They weren't even afraid of her dying, so why should she be afraid now that she was just gently binding his hands and feet and gagging him?
She dislikes spineless children.
The little snake was swimming happily in the basin full of water next to it.
Du Xiang smiled and said, "Xiao Bao, look how cute it is."
Shi Xiaobao was terrified and scared. He didn't know what Du Xiang, this good-for-nothing, was going to do, but his instinct for survival made him nod frantically in agreement with her.
Du Xiang frowned in displeasure.
The next second, he grabbed his head and shoved it into the basin of water. He noticed the struggle of the person under his control, but showed no intention of letting go.
Only when his struggles weakened slightly did Du Xiang grab him, watching as he gradually regained his senses and his breathing became increasingly labored.
He said in a gentle tone:
"You just lied to me. How could I see how cute it was from so far away? Do you see it clearly now?"
Shi Xiaobao was terrified. His face was wet with what looked like tears. The feeling of suffocation was unbearable, and his mind was blank.
It wouldn't be good if he didn't turn around, so Du Xiang pushed him into the basin of water again.
He was on the verge of death, yet he also posed curious questions.
She was kind-hearted and afraid that his wrong answer would upset her, so she didn't give him a chance to answer.
You should know that if she's unhappy, the consequences can be severe.
After repeated torture, Du Xiang was exhausted and threw the man on the ground, letting him recover his life.
Shi Xiaobao collapsed to the ground under immense shock and suffocation, even wetting his pants.
Du Xiang flipped through the book, neither saying she would let him go nor saying she wouldn't.
This situation is undoubtedly the most agonizing, even if the other person is just a child, once the shock of death has subsided, they will still be fearful and shrink back.
But Du Xiang was not satisfied. Memories and pain were too easy to heal and too easy to forget, especially for children, and not even smart children. What if he had a bad memory?
She'll have to come a few more times, even if it's difficult, so that the fear becomes ingrained in her bones.
After a long while, she put down her book and smiled gently as she approached Shi Xiaobao.
She looked at his wide, terrified eyes and large tears with disgust; she didn't like it.
She raised her hand and gently stroked his head, then grabbed his hair by the roots and plunged his face into the water again.
Du Xiang continued her movements round and round.
She tortured him repeatedly until the will to live in his eyes became so weak as to be imperceptible, and then she was finally satisfied.
She gently untied the rope and lightly wiped the water from his face.
"Aren't the little snakes cute?"
"So...cute."
Shi Xiaobao's body was still trembling, his eyes were vacant, and he no longer even had any fear.
Du Xiang was satisfied.
"Whose orders will you listen to at home from now on?"
"Listen to... what your sister-in-law says."
Du Xiang's gentle smile vanished. "I'm not satisfied with this form of address."
That was something she hadn't considered and hadn't explained, but didn't he know he should have asked her?
It's okay, she's very patient with children.
Du Xiang patted Shi Xiaobao's shoulder lightly.
"From now on, the four of us will call Xiangxiang 'Sister Xiangxiang' at home, and everyone else will call her 'Money-Loss,' understand?"
Shi Xiaobao was unable to think, nodded blankly, and tears streamed down his face involuntarily.
"understood."
Du Xiang felt sorry for her; what a lovely child.
"Do you remember how many times Xiaobao choked just now?"
Shi Xiaobao shrank back, not daring to answer, and shook his head with trembling hands. He couldn't remember anything at all; the countless near-death experiences had completely overwhelmed his mind.
Du Xiang sighed, "It's okay, that was just the feeling of death, you know?"
Seeing him nod, Du Xiang said regretfully, "Actually, there are many more painful ways to die. Being bitten by a snake is too pleasant. You are still a child and kind-hearted."
Du Xiang patted him on the shoulder, "Good boy, clean up the house and go out to play."
After saying that, she got up and continued reading her book.
The only sounds in the room were the rustling of turning pages and Shi Xiaobao's movements.
Du Xiang didn't even look up, and said calmly:
"Remember to catch the snake with your hands and release it back into the wild."
Such a cute snake! Why not touch it with your skin? What kind of bag and tools do you use to catch it? It's so disrespectful.
Shi Kang noticed that something was wrong with his twin brother. Both of them were acting strangely. He didn't know what Du Xiang had done, but if things continued like this, the two old men would think he was abusing his brother at home again that night.
Hesitantly, he entered Du Xiang's room. Seeing that she didn't even look up, he stammered:
"What did you do to them?"
Du Xiang didn't seem to care much. "We had a heart-to-heart talk. They're all good kids. They probably know they were wrong and are reflecting on it."
Shi Kang was furious and said something utterly ridiculous.
"If anything happens to them, we're both finished."
Du Xiang frowned. "What could have happened? They were just too naughty. You tried to discipline them but couldn't help but beat them a little too hard. I couldn't stop them. Every child gets a beating."
Shi Kang was furious. Listen to this backstabbing! Is this something a human being would do?
"Don't go too far!"
Du Xiang didn't even bother to look at him. "Get out. There's a ton of work waiting for someone to do at home."
Du Xiang was too calm. Even Shi Kang felt that she was too confident and must have some trick up her sleeve. It couldn't be as simple as the framing she just mentioned.
He remained confident until the evening, before being hit in the mixed doubles.
This is unbearable.
Shi Kang wept.
The next day, Shi Dabao and Shi Xiaobao were a little better, so Shi Kang wouldn't become the unfilial descendant his parents described who should have killed himself to apologize to his ancestors.
This family has really changed drastically.
As Shi Dabao and Shi Xiaobao gradually regained consciousness, their extreme flattery towards Du Xiang terrified Shi Kang.
Normally, the four of them would call Xiangxiang "Sister Xiangxiang" at home and serve her tea and water, but when the two old folks were around, they would change their tune and call her a "money-losing brat."
That's not the most outrageous part. The most outrageous part is that they bully him alone, secretly cooperating at the dinner table. One of them falsely accuses him and reports him, while the other takes advantage of the chaos to offer the best food to Du Xiang.
Shi Kang knew it was all over, completely over.
From then on, only he and his twin brother knew Du Xiang's true colors. His twin brother was completely brainwashed. It's no exaggeration to say that everyone in the world is intoxicated.
With Da Bao and Xiao Bao constantly calling her a "money-loser" and broadcasting her daily chores like a megaphone, Du Xiang has become a well-known, albeit foolish, good daughter-in-law.
But behind every person's success and fame, there are always people who silently support and help them through tears. Aren't those people important?
Shi Kang asked himself honestly, and he realized that he was truly the little cabbage that no one cared about.
He can't stand it anymore. He can call Xiangxiang "sister" as long as she keeps the twins in check and stops them from causing him more trouble.
Du Xiang coldly told him to get lost.
Family matters are easy to resolve. She ruined her reputation in her past life, so she can't possibly fall into the same trap again in this life.
But she plans to completely break away from the Shi and Du families in the future, so it would be worthwhile to make a useful new friend.
Du Xiang smiled as she looked at the figure ahead who had just finished work.
