Bring your aunt to eat big meat, the scumbag father's family is furious

Chapter 873 Then let's grant their wish.

Qiao Lian'er raised an eyebrow slightly as she looked at the two people kneeling in front of her.

This was the first time she had ever seen someone so eager to hand over the power to decide their own life and death to someone else.

Since that's the case, let's grant their wish.

"Since you are so insistent, it would be unreasonable of me to refuse."

The two were overjoyed. Great! They could eat the Qiao family's food forever, and one day they might even become the masters of the Qiao family mansion.

"However, I must make it clear beforehand that all the people in my household, whether they have signed a fixed contract or a flexible contract, must behave themselves and follow the rules. They should correct any minor faults. But if they commit a serious mistake that violates principles, I will not spare them. Those with flexible contracts will be handed over to the government, while those with fixed contracts will be dealt with by me."

The two quickly made their promises.

"Princess Zhenguo, please rest assured, we will definitely behave properly."

"Butler Chai, have them sign a death contract."

"Yes, you two come with me." Butler Chai was completely bewildered.

That's right, being able to stay at the Qiao family mansion for a long time is a good thing. Some have short terms, and when the time comes, they can't renew their contracts for various reasons—mostly because they fail the assessment, and some even cry and refuse to leave.

But if you perform well, you can sign a long-term flexible contract, which is a great thing.

Butler Chai thought again that the two people's insistence on signing a life-or-death contract might be because they lacked confidence in their abilities and wanted to stay in the long term through this method.

Song Guangdi and Song Qijin successfully signed a death contract with the Qiao family.

Butler Chai glanced at Qiao Lian'er's expression and instructed his men to keep a close eye on the two of them.

For example, where they might go in private. However, they simply followed the instructions of the government and never went anywhere else. The things they did were generally handled quite reliably.

Eat when you're supposed to eat, sleep when you're supposed to sleep, and that's all.

These are all explanations from Song Dujuan.

To achieve perfection in everything, one must even begin to treat oneself as a servant of the Qiao family, being cautious in speech and action. Even when alone, one must not utter a single word that should not be said, for the Qiao residence is likely to be full of eavesdroppers.

Having been reminded by Song Ruier, Song Dujuan knew that Qiao Lian'er possessed many skills that were unimaginable and unattainable for ordinary people. Therefore, she repeatedly instructed her not to reveal the slightest flaw.

Gradually, Butler Chai lowered his guard against the two of them.

The servants in the Qiao household also ate very lavish meals, and the two of them would wolf down their food at every meal. Even so, they would still have leftovers after they were full.

Looking at the leftovers, the two thought of their families outside and decided to take the leftovers out so that other members of the Song family could also enjoy them.

They also told the Song family that everything was going well at the Qiao residence and that they should just wait for their good news.

More importantly, it was about showing off their pioneering efforts; this sense of pride and honor permeated their hearts.

It was confirmed that Qiao Lian'er had already left the manor, and Steward Chai was not there either; there was no one else around.

Song Qijin said, "How about I go back when I go shopping?"

“It’s not a safe bet. We’ve only been here for a month. Although Steward Chai isn’t keeping a close eye on us anymore, Princess Zhenguo is cunning. She might have planted spies somewhere. We’ll be exposed as soon as we get back, and all our efforts will be in vain.” After careful consideration, Song Qijin decided to suppress his urge to show off.

Song Guangdi had a strong desire to show off, but he tried his best to restrain himself. The most important thing now was patience. The better his patience, the better his chances of taking over such a large mansion.

Seeing that the women of the Qiao family were all bosses of large shops with chains under their names, and that they were all decisive and efficient, while the men of the Qiao family were all imposing generals who commanded the wind and rain every day, they were always envious and eager.

As Qiao Lian'er's relatives, they should also enjoy such an honor.

But these things can't be rushed.

Song Dujuan hadn't come to see Song Ruier for a long time, which puzzled Song Ruier. He knew that Song Dujuan had gone to see the Prince of Yan several times, but she hadn't even seen the hem of his robe. She had also gone to a place to wait for a long time, rain or shine, but the Prince of Yan never came.

Given this situation, she should have given up on the Prince of Yan and set a new target.

He was the only one who knew who couldn't tolerate Qiao Lian'er.

Did Song Dujuan come up with another idea?

Song Ruier originally wanted to get rid of this family at all costs, but now he couldn't hold back anymore and went to find Song Dujuan himself.

Now Song Dujuan's feelings towards Song Ruier are different. From Song Ruier's perspective, she has been sidelined by the Prince of Yan and has failed. But in reality, she knows that the Prince of Yan has not given up on her. On the contrary, he is silently cooperating with her.

But how could she tell Song Ruier about such a good thing?

If there are benefits, of course she wants to keep them all to herself. Didn't Song Ruier avoid the Song family like the plague before?

"Forget it, I don't plan to get entangled with Qiao Lian'er anymore. Look at our family, we take on some embroidery work and the men do some manual labor, and we can still make ends meet." Song Dujuan made no attempt to hide her impatience.

Song Ruier stared at her, then suddenly smiled coldly.

“Sister Dujuan, others may not know what kind of person you are, but do you think I don’t know you? In the end, we are the same kind of people. I know myself as well as I know you.”

"You traveled thousands of miles to the capital just to scheme for wealth and glory from Qiao Lian'er. You won't give up until you achieve your goal, so how could you give up so easily?"

"Do you have any good ideas to share with me? Maybe I can add a few more to make our plan run more smoothly and play a better role."

Song Ruier smiled and tried her best to appear sincere.

However, that face, which didn't belong to his original skin, exuded a kind of hypocritical and eerie feeling.

Song Dujuan felt a chill run down her spine.

She knew that Song Ruier was being suppressed by Qiao Lian'er to the point of having no other choice. Otherwise, if he had really gotten a good position, who knows what kind of vicious and ruthless person he would have become.

Will he still respect her then?

They might wipe out the entire family.

"You really overestimate me. I have no ideas and no solutions. Go back and don't bother me anymore. You can be your lowly official, and we'll beg for our food." Song Dujuan directly gave them the order to leave.

The more she acted this way, the more Song Ruier believed that she possessed some secret weapon, and that it was very effective.

He scoffed, "Don't be so sure of yourself. Who knows, one day you might be the one begging me."

After saying those words, Song Ruier left.

Song Dujuan pursed her lips, remaining noncommittal. If that day ever comes, we'll just wait until then to talk about it.

Anyway, she won't let Song Ruier get a share of the profits now.

Qiao Lian'er observed the two who had signed the death contract for more than a month and did not find anything wrong.

But she always felt that signing such a contract was not as righteous as they claimed.

She called Butler Chai over and gave him some instructions.
