Agriculture Escape: Ultimate Boss Has A Space Pocket! - Chapter 181

181 There’s No Child That Can’t Be Taught Well

Qu Xin’er picked up a flower cake and took a big bite. The sweet flower filling, the crispy flatbread, and the fragrant sesame seeds made Qu Xin’er feel that the snacks she had eaten in the past were trash.

She took bite after bite, like a hungry tiger pouncing on its prey.

The servant was very anxious, but she could not stop her. After all, she was a guest that the Cui family valued very much. She said, “If Miss likes it, I can prepare some and send them to Miss’s room.”

Qu Xin’er looked up at her and suddenly exploded with anger. “I want to eat here!”

!!
The servant explained, “This is—”

Before she could finish, Qu Xin’er said angrily, “If you don’t let me eat some country bumpkin’s food, so be it!” She reached out and pulled out all the tabletop on the stone table.

With a whoosh, all the plates fell to the ground. Cui Lingyi and Bai Wutong had just walked out of the room when they saw the snacks they were preparing being destroyed in an instant.

The food was spilled all over the ground. Whereas, Qu Xin’er was about to leave.

When the maidservants behind her saw Cui Lingyi and Bai Wutong walk out, they did not dare to look at each other. They lowered their heads and said to them, “Our Miss is young. Please forgive her!”

Little Peach was a year younger than Qu Xin’er. But she was so cute and sensible that every family wanted to have a daughter like her.

Cui Lingyi looked at Bai Wutong apologetically and walked towards Qu Xin’er. “If Miss Qu wants to leave after damaging something, how can it be so easy?”

The maidservants were shocked and afraid. Cui Lingyi, who looked magnanimous and moving, actually wanted to argue with a child.

Qu Xin’er said arrogantly, “I’m leaving!”

Cui Lingyi clapped her hands and a few guards appeared in front of Qu Xin’er, blocking their way.

Qu Xin’er looked at her fiercely. “If you dare to stop me, I’ll let my grandfather arrest you.”

Cui Lingyi was not afraid at all. She smiled and said, “You can invite Uncle Qu now and see if he will lock me up.”

As soon as these words were spoken, the arrogant Qu Xin’er cowered.

She knew very well that it was wrong for her to destroy all the food on the table. Qu Yuanxian would definitely hit her palm when she returned.

She snorted. “So what do you want?”

Her frightened and timid expression was actually quite cute.

Cui Lingyi said with a matter-of-fact tone, “Of course it’s compensation.”

Qu Xin’er pouted. “I’m a guest. Why are you so petty!”

“Then leave!” Qu Xin’er was only happy for a second when she heard Cui Lingyi continue, “I’ll go look for Uncle Qu later and ask him if I’m very generous.”

Qu Xin’er had never seen such a difficult woman like Cui Lingyi!

This woman clearly knew that she didn’t want anyone to tell her grandfather, but she still deliberately threatened her.

Qu Xin’er said angrily, “I’ll compensate you!”

She asked the maid to bring the money bag and poured all the silver on the ground. “I’ll compensate you for all of it.”

Cui Lingyi and Bai Wutong frowned again.

At this age, if she was not taught well in time, she would become even more unruly and rude in the future.

Cui Lingyi glanced indifferently at the silver pieces on the ground and said, “Not enough!”

Qu Xin’er was in disbelief and widened her eyes in anger. “You’re lying. How can it not be enough for some lousy pastries!”

She was not stupid. The amount was enough even for the pastries from Jifang House.

Cui Lingyi pointed at the mess of pastries and tea on the ground and picked up a flower cake. She smiled unhurriedly and said, “This flower cake is made of Minghua roses. Just one flower is worth a thousand gold.”

Qu Xin’er stomped her feet. “You’re lying! How can a flower cost so much money!”

Although she was a child, Cui Lingyi did not give in at all. “Miss Qu, you can either make flowers with us or give us money.”

“If it’s the second way, I think Uncle Qu might be very happy to let you stay to repay the debt.”

Qu Xin’er was still a child after all. She immediately panicked and screamed, “I’ll make flower cakes with you.”

Cui Lingyi and Bai Wutong looked at each other.

There were no brats that could not be taught well. There were only adults who did not want to care.

Cui Lingyi gave her a small bamboo basket that was hanging from her body and asked her to put on gloves. She said to her, “You can only pick pink roses.”

Qu Xin’er was disdainful and prepared to pick the largest double-petaled rose next to her to take revenge on Cui Lingyi.

Cui Lingyi smiled deeply. “Some flowers are poisonous. The flower cakes made from them will kill you if you eat them.” She bent down and said amiably, “Since you like flower cakes so much, I’ll definitely let you try them first.”

Her jade-like fingers even gently pinched Qu Xin’er’s soft face. She was smiling so brightly that the flowers in the courtyard lost their color, but Qu Xin’er was so frightened that she retracted her hand like she had seen an old witch.

Bai Wutong couldn’t help but chuckle.

Cui Lingyi winked at her playfully and smiled. She urged Qu Xin’er, “Hurry up. If you don’t fill the basket with petals within an hour, you’ll have to stay here forever to repay your debt.”

Qu Xin’er sucked in her tears in grievance and grabbed the pink rose bud obediently.

The maidservants wanted to help her, but Cui Lingyi stopped them with a look.

After gathering all the petals in the bamboo basket, Qu Xin’er felt her hands ache. She handed the bamboo basket to Cui Lingyi angrily and said loudly, “It’s done!”

Cui Lingyi said coldly, “Carry it.”

Qu Xin’er was so angry that she wanted to smash the basket. Thinking that this bad woman would definitely torture her even more after she smashed it, she forced herself to hold back.

The maidservants were all surprised. Qu Xin’er, who was so difficult to deal with, was actually suppressed by Cui Lingyi time and time again.

Cui Lingyi and Bai Wutong slowed down and walked in front, while Qu Xin’er followed behind.

They arrived at a canal filled with green bamboo. After Cui Lingyi and Bai Wutong rolled up their sleeves, Cui Lingyi stepped forward and rolled up Qu Xin’er’s sleeves bit by bit.

She suddenly approached, and a fragrance wafted into Xin’er’s nose. Her motherly gentle eyes suddenly made the hostility in Qu Xin’er’s eyes disappear.

Cui Lingyi said to Qu Xin’er, who had suddenly quietened down and looked a little obedient, “Just like us, put the bamboo basket in the water, pick up the petals, and put them in another bamboo basket. The water will wash away the impurities. Just do it twice.”

Qu Xin’er nodded and walked to the canal, throwing the bamboo basket into the water.

There was a splash, and the corners of Cui Lingyi’s dress were wet.

She really didn’t do it on purpose this time. She looked at Cui Lingyi timidly. Cui Lingyi didn’t blame her and only said, “Be careful.”

To the maids’ shock, Qu Xin’er actually smiled and replied, “I understand.”

Qu Lianghua hurriedly rushed over and saw the sunlight shining through the bamboo forest. The mottled light shone on her and Cui Lingyi like a mother and daughter getting along well.

When Bai Wutong realized that Qu Lianghua had been quietly staring at Cui Lingyi, she thought of something and tugged at Cui Lingyi’s sleeve. “Second Young Master Qu is here.”
