"Yes, Miss."
After leaving the room, Xiao Tao's respectful expression gradually turned cruel.
"Miss Rong is back, will Xiao Ling'er be in bad luck?"
Xiao Tao has been with Xiao Ling'er for more than thirty years. Eight out of ten cases were handled by her.
How vicious Xiao Ling'er is in private, her confidant knows best.
When doing things around Xiao Ling'er, she was always careful.
When Xiao Ling'er was in a bad mood, she, the personal maid, would often be beaten and scolded. She only hoped that her luck would be better and her cultivation would be able to live well before reaching the golden elixir stage.
After the golden elixir stage, she can apply to leave her status as a maid and become an affiliated monk of the Xiao family.
At that time she no longer belonged to anyone's maid, and she no longer had to take orders from Xiao Ling'er.
Xiao Tao was once beaten by Xiao Ling'er who was in a bad mood. When she hid and licked her wounds alone, Zhang Tianlin saw her and not only gave her healing elixirs, but also comforted her with a few words.
This moved Xiao Tao, who had been cared about by few people since she was a child, for a long time.
Since then, the two of them would meet each other from time to time, and their relationship gradually changed until they became lovers.
Zhang Tianlin in the Jindan period was the bodyguard arranged by the Xiao family for Xiao Ling'er. Originally, the matter of stealing the child seven years ago had nothing to do with Zhang Tianlin, so the task was assigned to Xiao Tao.
Zhang Tianlin took the initiative to take over the matter from Xiao Ling'er because he didn't want her to take risks.
Xiao Ling'er meant to let Zhang Tianlin steal the child and deal with it after leaving the Xiao family. However, Zhang Tianlin did not want to increase his evil karma, so he secretly handed the child to a person who was about to leave the world of cultivation and go to An old Qi-refining monk in the mortal world.
He was an old monk who was about to die and wanted to return to his homeland within a limited time.
Zhang Tianlin thought that if he was sent to the mortal world, the child might still be alive. If he still stayed in the Xiao family in the cultivation world, Xiao Linger would go crazy again and try to deal with the infant child. I don’t know if the child will have a chance to live by then.
Xiao Tao never expected that Zhang Tianlin would be robbed and killed by someone else sent by Xiao Linger on his way back to the Xiao family.
Xiao Tao wanted to stop Xiao Ling'er, but she didn't dare. She was afraid that not only would she not be able to change the other person's mind in the end, but she would also be involved in it. At that time, she would not be able to take revenge even if she wanted to.
Xiao Tao secretly sent a message to Zhang Tianlin, telling Xiao Ling'er that she wanted to kill him and silence him, and asked him to find a place to hide first.
Unfortunately, Zhang Tianlin was found by the people sent by Xiao Ling'er in the end and silenced.
Xiao Tao is so hateful, she wants revenge. Over the years, she has been giving Xiao Ling'er a colorless and odorless chronic poison that she specially found.
But she still felt that it was too slow. Facing the face of her enemy every day, her heart was in torment every day, and she wanted to tear him apart and eat him in the next moment.
Xiao Ling'er didn't know that the confidant she thought was actually a woman lurking beside her, always thinking about how to kill her and avenge her sweetheart.
On the surface, Xiao Tao respectfully went to monitor the situation near the third room, but in fact she was checking the winning rate of the third room against Xiao Ling'er. Should she add fuel to the conflict between the two parties?
The first time Xiao Tao appeared outside the hospital, she was discovered by Song Mengying and Xiao Ronger. Because they knew that after returning to the Xiao family, many people would pay attention to them, especially their enemy Xiao Ling'er, so their spiritual consciousness would check in from time to time. The situation outside.
Not a single move of Xiao Tao was missed by them.
Xiao Tao never thought that people in the yard would notice her outside.
Because in her heart, the three-bedroom people who reunited after a long separation should be exchanging feelings at this time. After all, they had been missing each other for seven years. The only one who didn't know what was going on outside was Shi Yan, who had a low cultivation level.
Shi Yancai came over from the mortal world. Xiao Ronger was worried that he didn't understand the intrigues of the Xiao family, so she told him the general situation seen outside.
He also warned him not to act alone in the Xiao family. He lost it once, but Xiao Ronger didn't want to lose it a second time.
When Xiao Ronger comes back this time, she will definitely take revenge. She will not forgive Xiao Ling'er so easily, but everything must wait until she enters the ancestral land and the results come out before she can act.
So Xiaotao is destined not to wait for any results today.
Shi Yan saw that his mother and grandmother seemed to have endless things to say, so he stood up and walked outside to the yard.
"Xiao Yan, where are you going?" Xiao Ronger panicked when she saw her son standing up out of the corner of her eye and asked hurriedly.
"Mother, I'm bored here. Is there a quiet place for me to practice?"
Song Mengying stood up in annoyance, "Look at me, I'm busy talking to your mother. , Xiao Yan, come with me, I'll take you to your room."
Shi Yan didn't notice anything wrong with her grandmother's words, and followed her out.
Xiao Ronger also stood up and followed, "Mom, why is there Xiao Yan's room in the yard?"
"I packed it out and prepared it seven years ago."
Shi Yan paused for a moment, then followed as if nothing had happened.
Xiao Ronger was very touched. Although many people thought that her son was in danger and would most likely never come back, her mother had prepared the child's room early.
What does this mean? It means that her mother does not believe that the child is gone.
“Mom, thank you.”
"Silly girl." Song Mengying's gentle voice came from the front.
The room was similar to his cave in Zongmen except that it was a little warmly decorated and had more furniture.
Shi Yan practiced this practice at night, during which he heard Xiao Shan shouting for him. Before he could say the next words, something blocked him, and then the courtyard fell into silence again.
Seeing that it was already dark, Shi Yan stopped practicing. When he walked out of the room, he met three pairs of sad eyes.
"What are you doing?" Shi Yan looked at them in confusion and asked.
"You kid, why are you so annoying? You have good qualifications and don't have to practice like those miscellaneous spiritual root monks." Song Mengying was just about to step forward and hold her grandson's hand, but halfway, she remembered that her grandson didn't like others to touch him. Received it again.
"Yingying, what are you talking about? Aren't you trying to teach a good young man a bad lesson?" Xiao San said a few words to the Taoist couple with a straight face, and then said to Shi Yan with a serious expression: "Xiao San Don't listen to your grandma. As the saying goes, if you don't advance, you will retreat. Heaven favors you so much and has given you a good spiritual root. You can't be arrogant just because you have good qualifications. You have to know that those who make it to the end are often Those who are hard-working and determined.”
“Why did I teach Xiaoyan bad things? I just told him not to practice hard like those miscellaneous spiritual roots, but I didn’t say that he was not allowed to practice in a balanced way. You are hundreds of years old, and you still don’t understand?”
You are Xiao Yan’s grandmother, and you are not the child’s enemy, so would you harm the child?
