Chapter 1534: There’s Poison in the FoodEditor: Henyee Translations
Shao Qingyuan frowned and placed the bowl on the table. His gaze swept across the other dishes on the table.
When Gu Yiping saw that he was not drinking, a trace of displeasure flashed across his face. "Young Master Shao, are you looking down on our countryside..."
Before he could finish speaking, an intense banging sound suddenly came from the courtyard.
The force was so strong that it seemed like it was going to smash a hole in the courtyard door.
Gu Yiping instantly became irritated and shouted, "Eldest Daughter-in-law, Eldest Daughter-in-law, what are you doing? Someone is knocking on the door. Aren’t you going to take a look?"
"I-I’ll go take a look now."
Mrs. Jiang, who was at the stove, hurriedly stood up and ran to the courtyard to open the door.
When Mrs. Jiang saw the person standing outside the door, she was stunned. "Luo, Luo Qi, you’re still alive... Why are you here?"
Luo Qi raised her head and looked at her. Her lips were tightly pursed, but she did not say anything. Suddenly, she reached out and pushed her aside. Then, she quickly ran in.
Mrs. Jiang’s expression changed and she immediately chased after her.
However, Luo Qi had already run to the kitchen. Looking at the table full of dishes in front of her, as well as Shao Qingyuan and Gu Yundong sitting at the table, she bit her lip fiercely.
Gu Yundong was also surprised. Wasn’t this the child she had seen before?
Gu Yiping suddenly stood up. "Luo Qi, why are you here? What are you doing here?"
"Luo Qi, this is not a place for you to come. Go back quickly," Madam Song shouted. Then, she scolded Mrs. Jiang, who had chased in, "What’s wrong with you? I asked you to open the door, but you let this little girl in. Useless thing."
Mrs. Jiang came over to pull Luo Qi.
Luo Qi dodged and looked up at Gu Yundong and Shao Qingyuan.
Then, she stomped her feet and her gaze landed on the tablecloth on the table.
Usually, there was no tablecloth here. Who in the countryside would spread a tablecloth when eating? This was specially found from the bottom of the box to entertain an esteemed guest like Shao Qingyuan. It was just for show, as if they were very ritualistic.
At this moment, it was convenient for Luo Qi. She grabbed a corner of the tablecloth and pulled it over.
With a splash, all the food and wine on the table were poured over.
No one present had expected her actions. They all looked at the thin and small girl in front of them in disbelief.
After Luo Qi pulled out the tablecloth, all the pots and pans on the table fell to the ground.
Not only were a few plates broken, but all the food could not be eaten.
The people of the Gu family sucked in a breath of cold air. Mrs. Jiang, who was standing behind, had a drastic change in expression.
Madam Mao screamed, "Ah... Luo Qi, what are you doing? Do you know how important this table of food is to our family?"
Her two sons were also furious. "Luo Qi, you’re courting death."
Madam Song held her chest with one hand and pointed at Luo Qi with the other. Her fingers were trembling. "You little bastard, little slut. How dare you. How dare you do such a thing. Today, I’ll beat you to death..."
She got up, picked up the stool on the ground, and threw it at Luo Qi.
Luo Qi threw the tablecloth on the ground and turned to run.
Gu Yundong narrowed her eyes and quickly chased after her.
The other members of the Gu family also wanted to chase after him, but Shao Qingyuan suddenly said, "There’s poison in the food!!"
Everyone stood rooted to the ground in shock, as if their acupoints had been pressed.
Only Mrs. Jiang’s face was pale.
