Chapter 11: Something wasn't quite right

The marriage reception went on smoothly.

No one from the Shi family made things difficult for them. The eldest son of Chief Xiao and others even sensed that the Shi family were feeling more relieved.

However, everyone from the Shi family had ugly expressions on their faces.

Her scumbag father and others moved all the boxes and books Shi Qingluo had brought back from the Taoist temple to the ox-cart for the marriage. With a threatening look from Shi Qingluo, they threw the five bags of grain onto the ox-cart with a gloomy face.

Third Son Shi looked at Shi Qingluo and said coldly, "It was your decision to marry. Don't come back crying in the future."

They couldn't even receive a few taels of silver as betrothal gifts. They have really raised this daughter in vain. The key point was that they had never suffered such a great loss before.

It was all their biological daughter's fault.

Shi Qingluo gave her a big smile. "Don't worry, I won't come back here again."

"I'm just afraid that you guys will come crying to me in the future." she added.

Third Son Shi snorted coldly. "In your dream."

Shi Qingluo curled her lips. She felt that there would definitely be such a day. To the Shi family, in light of greater benefits, face was nothing.

She spoke her mind. "But even if you cry and beg me, I won't pay any attention to you."

She had plenty of ways to deal with these troublemakers.

Third Son Shi and the others were annoyed. "We'll just wait and see how you make us cry and how long you can be arrogant."

Fourth Son Shi added, "You'll pay for your own karma."

Shi Qingluo raised her eyebrows. "You mean the Wu family wants to take revenge on me?"

Fourth Son Shi muttered, when did this niece become so smart? Or was it because she just came back from the Taoist temple and was pretending to be someone better?

"Looks like you know something."

When Shi Qingluo saw his expression, she knew that this scum was still in contact with the Wu family. Then, she recalled that the woodshed she stayed in had been rummaged through when she came out the past two days.

She asked teasingly, "Is the Wu family targeting the little black balls that my master gave me?"

Fourth Son Shi's expression changed slightly and quickly returned to normal. "I don't know what you're talking about."

Shi Qingluo curled her lips. "As expected, but I'm just afraid that they don't have the fate to be concerned about it."

Since the Wu family was a wealthy merchant in the county, the head of the family wouldn't be an idiot, especially since they had established contacts with the magistrate.

She had used the earth bomb to threaten the troublemakers of the Shi family, as well as the Wu family's old granny and many others.

The head of the Wu family would naturally think that this thing could also be used in other areas, such as in a war.

If the Wu Family had such things, then they would be even more successful.

Of course, because only old granny and those who came along saw it, the head of the Wu Family was still uncertain and decided to get Fourth Son Shi to steal it.
