Chapter 374: I'm afraid it won't work

Old Lady Xie no longer cares about anything, crying and shouting, many onlookers came over to point and gossip.

The Xie family's reputation is bad; none of the onlookers speak up for them, and everyone knows that Old Lady Xie is very hard to beat.

"Even if my Kang clan's daughter cannot bear a child, it's not for your Xie family to trample upon!"

Zhuang Miao endured and endured, finally she could not hold back, stepped forward, grabbed Old Lady Xie, and slapped her twice.

Old Lady Xie was still crying when suddenly two slaps left her dazed.

Just as she was about to react and lunge forward, Jiang Yunchu kicked out, saying, "Get lost, you're dirty."

……

"Master, the person has been found." Bai Zhi ran over quickly, even using her lightness skill, her face grim and terrifying.

"What happened?"

Jiang Yunchu stepped forward and quickly asked.

"The person might not make it." Bai Zhi didn't elaborate—she was the Kang clan's lovely daughter, the Zhuang clan's granddaughter, and the Feng family lady's sister.

Who could have imagined it would come to this? They had considered the worst outcome, but the reality was far worse than they imagined.

Zhuang Miao stepped back two steps, and Kang Baihe quickly supported her, saying, "Mother, don't panic."

Although she was comforting her, the anger flashing in her eyes could no longer be concealed.

Xie family!

Yan family!

Really impressive!

She also felt guilty, her sister had married into Jiangnan, far from home, she ought to have visited more often; originally the sisters would meet each year to share their situations.

In the past three years, the Feng family had many affairs, so she had less contact—she never expected it would already be three years!

"Let's go."

"Fang Zi Lun, grab that old hag; whatever my second sister suffered, I will make her pay for it." Jiang Yunchu's whole body exuded hostility, carrying a murderous aura, she led the way into the inner courtyard.

At that moment, a young-looking nobleman ran out, attended by his servants.

The auspicious time has already arrived, yet there's still no news from his mother?

Xie Feng!

"Who are you?" Xie Feng saw a group of strangers, and one tall man was even grabbing his mother's collar.

"How dare you! Do you know what place this is? This is the Xie manor!"

"Who gave you the guts to cause trouble on Xie family's territory? Get out!" Xie Feng stepped back a step, his bright red robe making Zhuang Miao's eyes turn red.

It's this beast, this beast, who knelt for three days at the Kang clan's gate begging to marry Qiu Ju.

It's this beast—how dare he show up?

For treating his Qiu Ju like this, this beast deserves to die.

Zhuang Miao stepped forward and, before Xie Feng could react, slapped him.

But Xie Feng's reaction was extremely fast; he immediately reached out to strike back, but at that moment……

Feng Che arrived, grabbed Xie Feng's hand, his cold gaze fixed on Xie Feng—a person they had seen before, whom he had looked down on as a weakling, never expecting him to be so bold now.

"Big... brother-in-law? How did you come? You didn't even send word ahead." Upon seeing Feng Che, Xie Feng's legs went weak and he forced an ugly smile.

"Don't call me brother-in-law; I don't have a brother-in-law like you."

"Pah!"

"I despise you, you're disgusting."

Feng Che no longer pretends; before he was considerate of his wife's sister's face, what does he have to be considerate of now?

"Feng Che, I call you brother-in-law out of respect; I am now the Yan family's son-in-law, you're just a ruined household—what rank do you even hold?" Xie Feng looked at Feng Che, full of smug pride.

Originally they thought that by marrying the Kang clan's daughter, the Zhuang clan would give more support—what happened instead?

He's just a waste—placed there to look good, not to mention Zhuang clan's support, he can't even lay an egg, yet they still treat him like an ancestor to be worshipped?

"Ruined household!" Seeing Xie Feng's face flush red with anger, Feng Che laughed at himself.

Looking at him standing there, someone who didn't know might think he's an idiot.

A skinny camel is still bigger than a horse—such a simple truth, do we still need to be taught it?

For all these years, the Xie family has offended so many people yet hasn't starved—surely it's thanks to the Zhuang and Feng families' support?

Do they really think they have the ability to seize all that business? They're just dreaming!

He kicked out, and Xie Feng, basically a pretty boy, flew backward, hitting a stone table with an "Ah!"

A pained sound escaped, his face flushed red from strain, and finally he couldn't help spitting out a mouthful of blood.

"Feng'er, Feng'er!"

The Xie family's old lady, who had been pretending to be dead, now dropped the act; she had wanted her son to take charge and make the Zhuang clan look bad, but she never expected the Zhuang clan to stop caring and even lay hands on her Feng'er.

"Is there still any law?"

"Everyone, come see—is there still any law?"

The old lady launched again into her act of crying, making a scene, and threatening to hang herself, but everyone had already had enough, not even giving her a glance.

Kang Baihe stepped forward and directly stepped on Xie Feng's hand.

"Ah!"

That intense pain woke the already unconscious Xie Feng.

"Big sister, big sister." Xie Feng saw the person before him, his whole body jolted as he recalled that he had once slapped Qiu Ju, and it was this very big sister who had slapped him ten times before letting him go.

As for Kang Baihe, he both hated and feared her!

Kang Baihe's eyes were as cold as ice: "Xie Feng, you'd better pray Qiu Ju is unharmed, otherwise I'll have your Xie family buried with her."

"Husband, take him."

Feng Che immediately strode forward, then lifted Xie Feng as if lifting a little chick.

"Go!"

Jiang Yunchu was already anxious in her heart, wishing she could strike and kill Xie Feng; she hadn't expected to be dealt with by her older brother-in-law and older sister, which also spared her from getting her hands dirty.

"Master." Zi Su heard the commotion outside and hurried out, though her eyes were red.

Don't let Zi Su's soft and weak appearance fool you; her nature is one of inner strength and outer gentleness.

Except when something happens to her herself, otherwise no matter how great the matter that befalls her, she would not cry until her eyes turned red.

"How is the situation?" Jiang Yunchu realized the seriousness of the problem and immediately asked.

Zi Su shook her head, "The person..."

"I'm afraid they won't make it."

As soon as Zi Su's words fell, Old Madam Zhuang and Zhuang Miao both went weak in the knees, and Elder Master Zhuang's face also flushed red.

Jiang Yunchu narrowed her eyes, "Paternal aunt, you and maternal grandmother, rest outside for a while."

"Zi Wei, Nai Xin, older sister, come in with me."
