♂?，，

  Ding Rous words fell to the ground, stunning a group of people in the house. Does dealing with a young widow require both literary and military strategies? Liu Shi was shocked, "Xiao Rou, what do you mean?"

  "Sixth Miss, what is a literary duel? And what is a martial duel? Im confused." asked Lis mother.

  Ding Rou took a sip of water, cleared her throat, and smiled as she scanned the crowd. "As for the fight, its simple," she explained. "Li Mama led people to Xiao Guafus house to scold and beat them up, to vent their anger. Dont think theyre easy to bully. Wang Guan Shi said she was a shrew, so let her see what a real shrew is like. Enduring humiliation and seeking death, thats not like a shrew at all. Its more like a resentful wife. Li Mama, dont blame me for speaking harshly. If Xiao Guafu dared to seduce Wang Guan Shi, although this kind of thing cant be done with just one hand clapping, if she were decent, Wang Guan Shi wouldnt have gone along with it. A fly wont land on an intact egg, so its clear shes not a good person. If you do something wrong, you have to bear the consequences. Who wants to be both a prostitute and a respectable woman? What can they do even if they find a few more sisters to go beat them up? Even if she entered the household as a concubine, would the first wife still be afraid of her?"

  Ding Ruos words were a bit too crude, and Lius eyebrows furrowed. Who taught Ding Ruo these things? The wandering ghost officer was hit even when lying down, but Ding Ruo wasnt someone he could teach.

  Lius mother felt a chill in her eyes, Sixth Miss spoke so fluently, like a young widow who didnt follow the proper way of a woman should be taught a lesson. "Lius mother, leave finding people to me, say when you want to make trouble at the gate, my sisters and I will not hesitate, we can give face."

  Ding Rou smiled slyly and said: "Martial arts are simple and crude, but they are the most effective and the most relieving. What do you think, Li Mama?"

  Lis mother was moved by Ding Rous words and hesitated, saying: "Im afraid that scoundrel will get angry and want to divorce his wife. Although Ive cooled down towards him, after all, he is the father of my daughter..."

  Mrs. Li wiped away her tears, and Ding Rou spoke sternly: "Put away your tears for now. You can talk about divorce in a grandiose manner, but do you dare to look at men? The Seven Outlaws are just written for people to see, theyre an excuse for men to be unfaithful and heartless. If we had grasped the situation with Wang earlier, it wouldnt have come to this today."

  "Its useless for an old slave like me."

  "I heard my mother say that Wang Guanshi was able to become the manager because of his wifes help. Can it be true?" Ding Rou hated most were those who relied on their wives to get ahead and then abandoned them. Seeing Li Mama nodding, Ding Rou continued: "Its said that hes a clever person, but didnt he let go of his handle and allow him to have an affair? I dont believe his hands are clean, Li Mama, havent you remembered anything?"

  Mrs. Li regretted, "Sixth Miss, he cant be saved, and Im also doomed." Ding Ruo understood, it turned out that they were in cahoots with each other. Ding Ruo said: "Let bygones be bygones, but from now on, remember to keep an eye on everything, push the blame onto him, but remember his mistakes, so that youll have a handle on him in the future, understand?"

  They framed someone in a subtle way, and Li Mama and Liu Mama couldnt sit still anymore. They glanced at Ding Rous calm and peaceful eyes, and wondered if Sixth Miss was really only ten years old? Wasnt this thinking too heavy? The two exchanged a glance, and both had the same feeling - they didnt dare to be enemies with Ding Rou again. They felt that they couldnt defeat her, and added a few more submissive thoughts. Ding Rou was good at observing peoples expressions, and if she couldnt see through their thoughts, then she would have lived a useless life. Ding Rou intentionally deepened their loyalty, believing that there was no absolute loyalty in the world - without sufficient benefits, there would be betrayal. She never expected anyone to be devoted to her wholeheartedly. She deepened their fear and gave them a warning: if they dared to offend Ding Rou, she had many ways to make them suffer unbearably.

  "The old slave has taken note." Lis mother stood up and said cautiously, pointing to the embroidered stool, "Sit down and talk, Lis mother. There is one more thing: when a man has money, he becomes bad, and if you indulge him too much, with silver in his hands, he will have fewer scruples."

  "Sixth Miss is right," said Lis mother. "In recent years, I was deceived by him and gave him all my silver, hoping that he would live a simple life with me, but... I regret it."

  "Its never too late to mend the fold after a sheep is lost, Mrs. Li, just remember for next time."

  "How could I, an old servant, dare to forget?"

  Ding Ruo thought that in the Great Qin Dynasty, women did not have the right to divorce and could only rely on men. They were not economically independent and could only be in a subordinate position. Ding Ruo saw that Lis mother had some feelings for Wang Guan Shi and was waiting for him to return from his mistakes. In fact, this matter has happened before, and if a mans heart is wild, it is difficult to bring it back. However, Ding Ruo also couldnt directly tell Lis mother to divorce, as that would be too shocking and unconventional.

  "It seems that martial arts wont work, we can only use verbal sparring."

  Mrs. Lis face turned red, "Sixth Miss, please speak."

  "The literary struggle is a bit slower, but its a one-time effort, and its a soft knife." Ding Rou said: "The literary struggle has two aspects. One is Wang Guan Shi, Li Mama wants to reunite with Wang Guan Shi, so she should restrain her temper and put on a gentle attitude. Isnt he looking for a virtuous and magnanimous wife? If she learns from him, she can win his heart. They have over ten years of marital relationship, and Wang Guan Shi still needs to rely on her. Even if he is humble and yielding, he wont be too proud."

  Mrs. Li remembered what Ting Ruo said, "The old slave will be more gentle."

  "On the other hand, its about resolving the issue of the young widow. I can talk to Wang and make him understand, so he wont stop her from becoming his concubine anymore...” DING Yu hooked her finger at Li Mama, who leaned in close, putting her ear next to Ding Yus lips. Ding Yu moved her mouth slightly, but even though Liu Shi was standing nearby, she couldnt hear clearly. Liu Mama perked up her ears, eager to know what scheme Ding Yu had come up with - could it be that the young widow would actually enter their household?"

  Lis mother finally came back to her senses and looked at Ding Rou with admiration, "Sixth Miss, Ive learned from you."

  "After the matter is settled, she will be placed anywhere." Ding Rou had a hint of sympathy for the young widows daughter, but if the young widow didnt fall into her trap, Ding Rous plan wouldnt work either. Ding Rou wasnt so kind-hearted as to sympathize with unrelated people, and said: "Her little girl is suitable for being a maid."

  "Sixth Miss, you can rest assured that I, an old slave, would never dare harm anyones life or do anything that goes against the heavens and my conscience."

  Lis mothers guarantee was also the only thing Ding Rou could do for her. As for the young widow, if she dared to seduce someone, she should have the awareness of being calculated by others. Ding Rou would not sympathize with her. Ding Rou nodded and said, "Lets see how it goes."

  Mrs. Li thanked her profusely and, seeing Ding Rous fatigue, bid farewell and left. Mrs. Liu and Ding Rou also left after saying they would come again the next day. Seeing Madame Yus hesitant expression, as if she wanted to say something but stopped herself, Ding Rou smiled and said, "Mother, dont worry, our good days are just ahead."
