A farmer's daughter travels through time, farming and dividing the family to fight for the best

Chapter 218: Harming Others Ends with Harming Yourself

Si Chengren rolled his eyes at her in annoyance, then sat up straight reluctantly.

Qiao Yueru had no good impression of this cousin. He looked okay, but he was idle all day long. His legs went weak when he saw beautiful women.

Just now he wanted to change seats, but she wouldn't agree. Don't think she doesn't know what's in his mind.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Qiao Yueru glanced at Li Xiaoxiao beside her, then stood up and walked out with an arrogant look on her face.

That look made Li Xiaoxiao suspicious. The banquet was about to begin, what was she going to do?

Watching her go out, he followed behind her, silently.

Qiao Yueru stopped not far away and talked in a low voice with a maid.

Li Xiaoxiao hid in the dark, watching their every move, but because she was standing too far away, she couldn't hear what they were saying.

The maid listened carefully at first, but didn't know what Qiao Yueru said. She looked frightened and waved her hands to refuse.

Qiao Yueru did not give up and continued talking. She looked around to see that there was no one around. She took out a purse from her bosom. It looked heavy, so it must be silver.

Seeing that the maidservant with the purse hesitated, Qiao Yueru took the opportunity to stuff the purse into her hand, and then used her wide sleeves to cover the package in her hand and put it into her other hand.

Then he approached her, whispered a few words in her ear, and left with satisfaction, leaving the little maid alone. For a long while, he seemed to have made a great decision.

Watching Qiao Yueru walking back, Li Xiaoxiao went back to her seat before her, pretending nothing had happened.

Qiao Yueru returned to her seat and looked at Li Xiaoxiao's smug face. She was obviously in a good mood. She didn't know that Li Xiaoxiao already knew what she had done.

As the lights came on, the banquet officially began with the sound of fireworks outside.

Although the scene was not lively, it was not dull either. The little maid placed the cups neatly in order. When she came in front of Li Xiaoxiao, her movements were obviously a little stiff.

Li Xiaoxiao looked up at her, and the little maid was so frightened that she almost dropped the cup in her hand. She lowered her head and dared not look at her. Her breathing became rapid. She finally calmed down, put everything in place quickly and left.

Qiao Yueru had been staring at her. Seeing the little maid clumsily handling things, she kept calling her an idiot in her heart. Only after she saw her put the cups in place did she feel relieved.

"Today is New Year's Eve again. On weekdays, we are all busy with our own things. It's not easy for us to get together. We must eat and drink well." The old lady picked up the teacup, her tone excited.

Everyone stood up, picked up the cup in front of them and took a sip. Only Li Xiaoxiao put the cup back on the table intact.

"We are all family, eat quickly, or the food will get cold." The old lady greeted everyone and picked up a piece of meat and put it in Sun's bowl.

Sun also picked up a few pieces of delicious food and put them in her bowl: "Mom, you are old, eating cold food is not good for your health."

"Okay, okay." The old lady agreed with a smile, her face full of charity.

Qiao Yueru had been observing Li Xiaoxiao. Seeing that she was only eating and didn't drink a sip of the tea in the cup, she couldn't help but feel anxious.

Li Xiaoxiao saw her expression and ate slowly. Suddenly, she stood up while eating and looked outside the door in horror.

The confused crowd was startled by her action and subconsciously looked outside following her gaze.

There was only darkness outside the door and nothing there, so he turned to look at Li Xiaoxiao in confusion.

While everyone was looking outside, Li Xiaoxiao quickly swapped the cup in front of her with Qiao Yueru's.

"Oh, it's okay. I seemed to see something flash past the door. Maybe I was dazzled." Li Xiaoxiao sat down again and said apologetically.

"Cousin, don't be afraid, I'm here." Si Chengren ignored Qiao Yueru's presence and said with concern.

"Xiaoxiao, you're just seeing things, don't be afraid." Si Chengyi also vied to talk to Li Xiaoxiao.

Seeing the looks of the two brothers, Wang Qiuhe was filled with disappointment and glared at Li Xiaoxiao fiercely.

She has a vixen face and wants to seduce her two sons. Bah, that depends on whether she agrees or not.

"Thank you two cousins ​​for your concern. This is the first time we are eating at the same table. Today is also New Year's Eve. I would like to offer a toast to both of you." Li Xiaoxiao said as she picked up the teacup on the table.

When Si Chengren and Si Chengyi saw Li Xiaoxiao toasting them, they were immediately excited. They stood up hurriedly and raised their glasses to Qiao Yueru from a distance.

Looking at Qiao Yueru sitting on the stool, Li Xiaoxiao raised a smile: "Sister Qiao, let's have a drink together."

Qiao Yueru stared intently at the cup in Li Xiaoxiao's hand. Her joy was self-evident, as if she had already seen Li Xiaoxiao die of poisoning.

He picked up the teacup in front of her and drank most of it in one breath without any precautions.

Then she waited quietly for the poison to take effect on Li Xiaoxiao. After waiting for a long time, there was no movement from Li Xiaoxiao. She saw her drink the water in the cup with her own eyes, so why was there no movement after so long?

Just as she was wondering, she felt uncomfortable in her stomach. She didn't pay attention to it at first, thinking that she had eaten something cold, but it was not right. Her stomach hurt more and more, and finally she lay on the table gasping for breath in pain.

Li Xiaoxiao noticed her abnormality early on, but pretended not to see it.

Instead, it was Si Chengren who spoke first, in a bad tone: "Qiao Yueru, what's wrong with you?"

He has never liked this cousin, but this year she actually came to the Marquis' Mansion to celebrate the New Year. If she hadn't come today, he could have sat with his little cousin.

"My stomach hurts so much, go get a doctor for me." Qiao Yueru really couldn't bear it anymore. She didn't wait until Li Xiaoxiao was poisoned. She didn't know what was wrong with her, she just felt her stomach hurting more and more.

Hearing Qiao Yueru's words, everyone at the table put down their chopsticks and looked over here.

The old lady looked at Qiao Yueru with annoyance on her face. Last time, Tang Xiuwen brought her to cause trouble for Li Xiaoxiao.

She actually came on New Year's Eve this time, but since she was already here, she didn't have the heart to chase her out. She didn't expect such a thing to happen. It was really unlucky on New Year's Day.

With a sullen face, he ordered the maid to call a doctor. At this time, Qiao Yueru could no longer sit still and lay on the ground, rolling on the ground in pain.

After this happened, everyone couldn't continue eating. After waiting for a long time, the doctor came hurriedly with a medicine box.

Seeing Qiao Yueru lying on the ground, the doctor hurriedly took her pulse. The doctor looked at Qiao Yueru's appearance and combined his pulse diagnosis with the results, and concluded that she was poisoned.

Poisoned, how could she be poisoned?
