Chapter 141: You, Apologize to Her!
Hearing this laughter, Xia Yinian felt a throbbing pain in her head.Why is this woman everywhere?
Isn’t she supposed to be horseback riding training? What is she doing in such a dirty place like this stable? It doesn’t fit her status as a Lady at all!
Seeing Xia Yinian’s expression change, Taotao couldn’t help but ask quietly, "Nian Nian, who is she...?"
However, seeing her sitting high on the horse’s back, one could tell without thinking—she must be one of the Gu Family’s Ladies.
It just seemed that her relationship with Nian Nian wasn’t that good.
"An inexplicable enemy," Xia Yinian whispered, "Ignore her and just keep working."
"Okay." Taotao was just here to earn money and did not want to get involved further.
Holding a tool, he continued to work.
Xia Yinian also ignored Gu Ziqi and worked alongside Taotao, even more diligently than him.
How could Gu Ziqi tolerate these two people ignoring her?
Her nose stung fiercely, and she figured it out—it wasn’t Gu Ziyu or Gu Qingqing; it must be Xia Yinian.
At that moment, something had hit her ankle, causing her such pain that she lost her balance and fell off the carriage.
It must have been Xia Yinian’s pebble that hit her, definitely her!
"Hey, you maid, how dare you slack off!"
Gu Ziqi spurred her horse forward and suddenly raised her whip, slashing it down.
The force of the whip wasn’t too strong, but the ’snap’ that hit the wrist was painfully sharp.
Taotao let out a low cry, his hand shook, and the bucket full of water he held immediately fell.
The bucket hit her foot, not only causing her pain but also soaking her pants and shoes.
In any case, it was as disgraceful as it could get.
"Taotao!" Xia Yinian didn’t expect Gu Ziqi to suddenly make a move and couldn’t stop her in time.
Taotao had already been hit and was sweating profusely from the pain.
Xia Yinian looked up at the smiling Gu Ziqi, her anger flaring, "Gu Ziqi, what right do you have to hit someone?"
"I hired a maid with the Gu Family’s money who slacks off, can’t I hit her a few times?"
Gu Ziqi lifted her chin up, a proud look on her face, "Or is the Gu Family’s money earned for nothing?"
"Miss, I wasn’t slacking off," Taotao, although also frustrated, didn’t want to cause more trouble.
She gently tugged at Xia Yinian and sincerely said to Gu Ziqi, "I’ll continue working now without slacking off."
"Taotao, she hit you, and you still want to work?" Xia Yinian was furious and pulled her back.
Maids are humans too; where is it justified that someone can simply hit and scold them?
"She is slacking off," Gu Ziqi played with the whip in her hand, disdain on her face, "What’s wrong with me hitting her?"
"When did she ever slack off?" Taotao had been working all along, I saw it with my own eyes.
"She’s letting the future Gu Family’s young Grandma do her work, isn’t that slacking off? Oh look at what you’re wearing now, all dirty; if Grandpa sees this, he’ll be furious."
"What I’m wearing, what’s it to you!" Unable to swallow this grievance, Xia Yinian retorted, "You, apologize to Taotao!"
"Apologize to a maid?" Gu Ziqi laughed as if hearing the funniest joke, shaking all over.
"Hahaha, Xia Yinian, have you lost your mind? Why don’t you go find out what kind of existence the Gu Family holds in Ye City?"
"Ye City’s foremost family, and you want the Gu Family’s Lady to apologize to a maid? Xia Yinian, you poor devil, do you even know what dignity means?"
