Chapter 327 Kicked away

Song Chunxue's attitude left the entire He family outside the gate looking at each other in bewilderment.

They didn't expect that Hongying's mother was really stubborn. They were already at the door, but she insisted on bringing a cartload of potatoes before letting them into the house.

This clearly shows they are disliked, but they can't refute it.

"How about this, since we're already here, it's too much trouble to make the trip. Let's have the second brother bring a cart back when we get back, okay?"

Song Chunxue also wanted everyone to see clearly the He family's attitude.

“Then don’t forget.” With that, she stepped aside. “Come in.”

Jiang Hongying carried Xiaolong, while He Chuan led Xiujuan and Xiaoxu, watching their family enter the courtyard without even bringing a single scallion.

My parents came yesterday, but my father didn't come today. Instead, my second and third brothers' families came.

Their purpose in coming here is self-evident.

"Oh my, He Chuan, you've really changed a lot! You've changed your clothes and shoes. All five of you are dressed to the nines. It's different when someone spends money on you."

The first to speak was He Er's wife. She still remembered the grudge that Song Chunxue had made against her, and her gaze went back and forth between Song Chunxue and Song Chunxue.

"What's that outfit of Hongying's mother's? A Taoist robe?" she asked with a grin. "No wonder you kicked me so hard that day, did you really become a Taoist nun?"

As she spoke, she covered her mouth and let out a meaningful laugh, which was rather sinister.

Those sharp, scalpel-like eyes sized up Song Chunxue. "I heard that a Taoist priest was traveling with you, and that he also bought this courtyard. You're not related by blood or marriage, so there must be some hidden story behind this, right?"

Song Chunxue sneered, "What secret? I already said he's my senior brother, how can we be strangers? You're spreading rumors in front of me with such sarcasm, be careful I tear your mouth off and throw you out."

He Er's wife rolled her eyes. Anyway, they had come here with a purpose.

“Why be so aggressive, mother-in-law? We’re here today to discuss the division of the family property.” He Chuan’s mother sat on the table in the north room, putting on airs. “He Chuan is my son, he’s my own child. As his mother, I have the most right to interfere in their family’s affairs, don’t I?”

Song Chunxue laughed, "Of course, I didn't stop you."

She sat down next to Old Lady He and said, "You two discuss it; I won't disturb you."

He Er and He San sat down on the platform on the right side of the north room, their expressions unfriendly, their faces gloomy as they sized up He Chuan's family.

"He Chuan, come here! Are you afraid we'll eat you up?" He San scolded. "You've gotten so powerful now, with people buying your yard and clothes, you don't even recognize your own brother and mother anymore?"

He Chuan placed the small document on the ground and walked over with neither arrogance nor servility.

"Third brother, you're joking. Wasn't I kicked out by our parents? Second brother and sister-in-law were there that day too, how come it's all different when it comes to you..."

Before he could finish speaking, He San stood up and suddenly kicked He Chuan, who fell to the ground unprepared.

"father!"

"Bad uncle, you're bullying my dad, waaaaah!"

Holding Xiaolong in Jiang Hongying's arms, Xiaolong saw his father being kicked to the ground and immediately burst into tears.

Xiujuan, who was always being beaten or scolded, hid behind Jiang Hongying, too scared to make a sound.

"What, you have a problem with me hitting my brother?" He San pointed at Jiang Hongying. "Come here, bring the child over. I want to ask who taught him to do this. A three-year-old child can't even tell right from wrong?"

Song Chunxue looked at Jiang Hongying with a half-smile on her lips, which instantly gave Jiang Hongying confidence.

Mother is angry.

She was also watching her attitude.

Jiang Hongying took a breath.

"Third brother, what else can you do besides showing off in front of the younger generation? He Chuan is your younger brother, and I've never seen you stand up for him all these years. When he's working himself to the bone and asking people from the estate for help, you, his own brothers, just act like you're dead."

"Now that we've moved out and are living in a big courtyard, you're still upset and have brought so many people here. Are you trying to scare us or show off the He family's bad habits?"

"If you have something to say, say it clearly. Do you want to separate the family or sever ties? Don't say these useless things. It makes you seem like you have two legs and can step on people."

As she spoke, Jiang Hongying put Xiaolong on the ground and whispered to Xiujuan and Xiaoxu, "Take good care of Xiaolong and go stay in the kitchen. If your uncles and aunts want to hit me, you have to hide, understand?"

"Jiang Hongying, what the hell are you talking about? Who's going to hit you?" He Er's wife stepped forward, pointing at her and spitting everywhere. "If you keep talking nonsense, I'll tear your mouth apart."

Song Chunxue couldn't stand it and said with a stern face, "Shut up, all of you! Didn't you come here to discuss things? It looks to me like you're here to act tough and show off your numbers, right? If you can't speak properly, get out!"

She sneered, "Anyone who didn't know better would think He Chuan wasn't one of yours, but my own son. I've never seen anyone so unwilling to see their underlings get any benefits. It's really strange."

"Everyone says that shallow ponds are full of turtles, and your He family has quite a few turtles. You even came to my house to chatter away. Hurry up and get down to business."

He Er and He San stood up, puffing out their chests, their fists clenched so tightly they cracked, it was as if they wanted to rush up and beat her up right away.

"Who are you calling a bastard? I think you're tired of living, you old hag." He Sansheng was tall and strong. He hadn't been beaten by Song Chunxue before because he wasn't around, so he was extremely arrogant now. He walked up to her in a few steps.

"What, you want to hit me?" Song Chunxue sat on the platform with a smile. "I told you you're a bastard, go ahead and hit me."

"You son of a bitch..."

"Bang!"

The moment He San reached out, Song Chunxue suddenly stood up, grabbed his arm with one hand, and kicked him hard in the knee with the other.

Unexpectedly, the next moment she watched as He San flew out and landed flat on the ground, his mouth hitting the ground and breaking half of his tooth.

Everyone was startled, including Song Chunxue.

She looked at her legs in disbelief, then at He San ten meters away, completely bewildered.

What's going on?

Last time we fought in front of the He family's house, my arms and legs felt really heavy, and I didn't get enough of it. Why did it feel so easy today?

She used to kick pig bladders, but she wouldn't necessarily kick them this far.

"Third brother, my third brother, how are you?" Old Mrs. He, her voice trembling with tears, swayed her heavy body as she ran to He San's side.

"Are you trying to beat my third brother to death? He only said two words to you..." He Er waved his finger and cursed Song Chunxue, but was silenced by her look.

“He started it. If you go blind, I can gouge your eyes out so your whole family can get some rest.”

Song Chunxue coldly swept her gaze over them. "Don't play dumb. Your purpose today is to make sure that now that He Chuan is living in such a big courtyard, he can give up on everything in the He family, right?"

"It's just a simple matter, but you've been rambling on and on. If I'm not mistaken, you mean you want He Chuan and his wife to forget about the food and livestock at home, and they won't even get a share of the firewood, is that right?"

They all avoided eye contact and remained silent; the courtyard was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

"Mother, is this really your plan?" He Chuan stared blankly at his mother. "You'd love for me to become a live-in son-in-law?"
