Chapter 430 The mere second young lady, I'll give way (1)
"That's General Xiao's sister. Isn't it inappropriate for us to do this?"
"She's a fake, otherwise she wouldn't have been sent to our military camp to learn the rules."
“The real Miss Xiao has given instructions that we must not let her have an easy time these next few days.”
Su Dingding opened his eyes and found himself in a camp tent.
Outside the tent, a centurion and two soldiers were whispering among themselves.
Based on just a few words, Su Dingding could basically conclude that this was an ancient drama about a real and a fake heiress.
The real heiress returned, while the fake heiress was not well received and was sent here to learn the rules.
Sending an unmarried woman to such a place is utterly despicable.
Su Dingding stood up, her body still a little weak, clearly having been drugged and brought here.
She walked to the tent and reached out to lift the tent flap.
The centurion turned and saw her, immediately revealing a vicious expression.
"Who let you out? Get the hell back inside!"
"It's too dark inside, I'm scared." Su Dingding took a step back, looking pitiful. "Why don't you come in and keep me company?"
The centurion immediately became sleazy again, which was perfect.
The woman in front of him was incredibly beautiful; even General Xiao's own sister couldn't compare to her looks.
If I had the chance to touch it, I'd die happy.
"Hehehe..." The centurion followed inside, "Little beauty, you're quite sensible."
As soon as they entered the tent, before Su Dingding could even make a move, Gangzi suddenly transformed into a vicious dog and began tearing at the centurion's throat.
With a low growl, the centurion fell to the ground, dead.
Su Dingding's hand, which was about to twist her neck, stopped in mid-air. She bit her lip and stared at Gangzi. She was a step too slow.
Fortunately, there was still a chance. Two soldiers outside the tent leered and peeked inside, just in time to see what was happening.
Two people burst in at the same time, and Su Dingding and Gangzi each took one of them down instantly.
【2:1, I won.】 Gangzi's tail was practically wagging wildly.
Su Dingding let out a cold snort, "This is just the beginning. I will definitely surpass you in the future."
"That's not necessarily true. You'll understand once you receive the original owner's memories."
The original owner's name was Xiao Yuhu. Her father was a military officer, her mother was the eldest daughter of a prefect, her brother was a general, and her sister was a concubine. It can be seen that she was of noble status.
Xiao Yuhu was intelligent from a young age, proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and was also beautiful. She was engaged to the eldest son of the Grand Tutor.
But when she was seventeen, her life took a fatal turn.
A girl of similar age came to the Xiao residence and said that she was the second young lady of the Xiao family, while Xiao Yuhu was the wet nurse's daughter.
The girl's name was Li Caihui. She had the same birthmark as Xiao Yuhu, and she spoke with great confidence and knowledge.
She was taken back to the countryside by her wet nurse and raised there until her wet nurse passed away a few days ago, at which point she revealed the truth.
The blood test confirmed that she was indeed the real daughter of the Xiao family.
Thus, Li Caihui moved into the Xiao family mansion, and Xiao Yuhu went from being the second young lady to the third young lady. Her childhood sweetheart and fiancé also became Li Caihui's fiancé.
Although she felt disappointed, she felt guilty for taking up Li Caihui's life and decided not to fight for anything anymore.
However, Li Caihui appeared well-mannered and knowledgeable in public, but privately she would find fault with her and frame her in various ways.
She even burned her own arm in an attempt to frame Xiao Yuhu.
After several such incidents, the Xiao family members became increasingly dissatisfied with Xiao Yuhu and refused to listen to her explanations.
To protect his younger sister, Xiao Yuhu's elder brother, Xiao Qianhe, went so far as to send her to the military camp to learn discipline.
He was gone for a month and never inquired about her life or death.
Li Caihui secretly spent money to bribe the people in the military camp to treat Xiao Yuhu well.
Xiao Yuhu initially worked as a maid, washing and cooking for them every day. Later, seeing that no one in the Xiao family cared about her, she was made to change into revealing clothes, dance, and drink with them.
If Xiao Yuhu dares to resist, then whip her.
When Xiao Qianhe and Li Caihui first came to the military camp to pick up Xiao Yuhu, they saw her walking into the tent in gorgeous clothes from afar. They did not know that she was there to entertain the soldiers in the camp, and thought that she was living a life of luxury here because of her status.
So he instructed her to discipline her strictly, and then left without even seeing her.
Three more months passed, and when they came to take Xiao Yuhu home again, she was already a walking corpse, her soul long since tormented away.
Upon returning to the Xiao residence, Xiao Yuhu was extremely humble towards everyone, as if she were a servant.
This made Xiao Qianhe very unhappy. Their Xiao family didn't owe her anything, so who was she trying to impress with that sour face?
Xiao Yuhu felt like she was walking on thin ice in the Xiao family. She wanted to leave, but her grandmother was seriously ill and couldn't bear to part with her. If she stayed, Li Caihui would target her at every turn.
When she heard that Li Caihui and her former fiancé Li Juntian were about to get married, she could only remain indifferent.
During this time, she was framed by Li Caihui for seducing a servant and was slapped twice in public by Xiao Qianhe.
Xiao Yuhu was utterly heartbroken. After her grandmother passed away, she left the Xiao family mansion and started her own teahouse.
The Xiao family often came to cause trouble, feeling that she was bringing shame to the Xiao family, and told her to go back.
After seeing that Li Juntian also frequented the teahouse, Li Caihui, in a fit of anger, had Xiao Yuhu and herself kidnapped.
In the end, the Xiao family chose Li Caihui over the other two.
Xiao Yuhu was pushed off the cliff and fell onto a rock halfway down the cliff, breaking his arm. With nowhere to escape, he starved to death.
Although the Xiao family felt guilty, after burning paper money for her, they began preparing wedding items for Li Caihui and forgot about the matter.
On the very day of Li Caihui's wedding, Xiao Yuhu's wet nurse unexpectedly appeared and revealed a shocking secret.
Xiao Yuhu is the young lady of the Xiao family, while Li Caihui is her biological daughter.
These words struck like a bolt from the blue, leaving the Xiao family filled with regret.
Li Caihui never expected that her biological mother, whom she had killed with her own hands, would come back to life and ruin her wealthy life. In a fit of rage, she swung her knife at her biological mother in public, but laughed loudly as she died.
Even so, what can be done? After all, Xiao Yuhu is dead and cannot be brought back to life.
The entire Xiao family will live in guilt, and she has been the second young lady for a few months, so her life has been worthwhile.
It's a pity that Xiao Yuhu became the sacrifice that changed her life.
……
"The original owner's wish was to make those who bullied her pay the price, stay away from the Xiao family, run her own teahouse, and stop fantasizing about family ties," Gangzi said.
"The Xiao family is really bizarre. Don't they know what kind of person their daughter is after raising her for seventeen years? They're just stirring up trouble. We're better off without her!" Su Dingding was genuinely angry.
This is a military camp, full of starving men.
It's a joke to expect such a young, beautiful, and helpless young lady to return unscathed from a wolf's den!
Even without Li Caihui's intervention, the outcome would have been just as tragic.
Thinking of those unbearable memories, I don't know how Xiao Yuhu got through those three whole months.
At that time, she did not think of ending her life, but she could not bear to leave her sick grandmother, after all, she was the only person in the family who believed in and loved her.
Forget it, let's kill all those who bullied her here first!
