Chapter 128 Liao Youhe was exposed a little too early.

Shen Guannian was stunned. This woman was actually Liao Youhe's mother.

Immediately, his brows furrowed deeply. Liao Youhe was a dignified man, so how could his mother have such a mean-looking face with a pointed mouth and monkey cheeks?

His face turned ashen: "Even if you are Mingxuan's mother-in-law, you can't beat her like this!"

When Madam Qi heard that the beggar was actually her daughter's mother-in-law, she became even more furious: "My daughter kindly invited your son to stay with us in the Shen family to enjoy a life of luxury. You are not only ungrateful, but you even came to our door to beat her! You are not worthy to be her mother-in-law. I will never forgive you!"

As she spoke, she stepped forward and began to fight with Zhen.

Zhen Shi had worked hard all year round, and her physical strength and hand strength were far superior to those of Qi Shi, who was used to a life of luxury. In addition, she was also taking care of four children who were starving. Qi Shi was immediately at a disadvantage. Even with the help of maids and servants, her face was still scratched.

The Zhen family and their children were also bruised and battered, but they seemed oblivious to the pain and attacked the Shen family members even more frantically.

Their fearlessness terrified the maids and servants of the Shen family. Even Shen Guannian was startled. Afraid of hurting himself, he quickly took several steps back and hid at the very back.

The people from the Prince Ning's residence were all stunned by this unexpected turn of events.

While watching the spectacle, Qin Xin made sure to protect Shen Wantang by taking two steps back to prevent them from being caught in the crossfire of the two bloodthirsty groups.

Besides her, Granny Chai and her men all stood around Shen Wantang, and no one stepped forward to break up the fight.

Qin Xin couldn't help but mutter, "Strange, with things getting so chaotic here, why doesn't their son-in-law come out to check on things?"

Shen Wantang also found it strange. Based on her understanding of Liao Youhe, he would never let his mother and father-in-law's family make a fuss. He was a very proud and filial person. How could he let his mother and younger siblings suffer?

She glanced in the direction of Shen Mingxuan's courtyard; it was completely silent there, without a sound.

The two sides fought fiercely, and Shen Guannian was both angry and furious. He had never seen such a fierce and vicious mother-in-law before. What kind of family had his wife chosen for their daughter? Wasn't she sending their daughter into a fire pit?

He already had a lot of complaints about Liao Youhe living at the Shen family's house every day, and now that Liao Youhe's mother had made such a scene, he disliked Liao Youhe even more.

"Stop! All of you, stop!"

Shen Guannian shouted loudly and ordered the servants to pull the two sides apart. Seeing that they all had disheveled hair and injured faces, he was furious: "Mingxuan, go and call Liao Youhe over here!"

Shen Mingxuan covered her face, her eyes red. She was about to call for someone when she heard the servant say, "Master, Miss, the young master is not in the manor today."

Shen Mingxuan was taken aback: "Not at home? Wasn't he studying in his study?"

This servant was specially assigned to Liao Youhe by Shen Mingxuan after he came to the Shen family. Even the study was specially prepared for him so that Liao Youhe could concentrate on his exams.

Now, Liao Youhe is not at home?

"Miss, the young master said he's going out to meet some friends and exchange ideas about past exam questions with them."

"He went out, why didn't you go with him? Don't you know he's unfamiliar with this capital city?"

“Don’t worry, Miss. The young master has been out a few times before and is now very familiar with the capital. Besides, he doesn’t like me to come along, so I have no choice but to stay.”

Shen Mingxuan frowned: "He's gone out several times already? When? How come I didn't know?"

"Well... the son-in-law goes out at unpredictable times, sometimes early, sometimes late."

Shen Mingxuan was very unhappy. Why was Liao Youhe always running around outside instead of studying at home? Moreover, he didn't even tell her when he went out. It was clear that he didn't take her seriously at all!

Unfortunately, she became unhappy too soon.

Next, something even more upsetting happened to her.

Several more people rushed in from outside; this time, they were all burly men.

The burly man at the head of the group had a shaved head and tattoos on his face. He had a booming voice: "Is your Shen family causing a scene? Why are there so many of you! Who's in charge? Come out and speak!"

Shen Guannian stepped forward with a grim face: "I am the head of the Shen family. Who are you? Why are you trespassing on our Shen family property?"

The bald, burly man sneered, "We are from Wanye Tower, Lord Shen. We're here to collect a debt of five hundred taels of silver. Hand it over!"

Wanyelou was a brothel on par with Wanhualou, both being notorious dens of iniquity in the capital. However, the difference was that Wanhualou was staffed entirely by prostitutes, while Wanyelou was staffed entirely by young men, whose male prostitutes entertained both women and men.

However, very few women went to Wanye Tower; most of the people who went there to have fun were men.

Shen Guannian had indeed been to Wanye Tower, but he was not a homosexual. He had only been to such a rare place before, so he went there with his colleagues and friends to eat, drink, and listen to music.

Even though there were several of them together, it only cost a few dozen taels of silver. Because they didn't touch any male prostitutes, the expense wasn't high.

The bald, burly man was asking for five hundred taels of silver, which was clearly outrageous, especially for a male prostitute.

"You must be mistaken. No one from our Shen family has ever been to your Wanye Tower."

Shen Guannian glanced at his wife and daughter: "Have you been to Wanye Tower?"

Madam Qi glared at him: "Of course I've never been!"

Shen Mingxuan also shook her head: "Father, how could your daughter go to such a place?"

Shen Guannian nodded: "Your eldest and second eldest brothers will definitely not go either."

As for Shen Wantang, there was even less chance she would go.

Shen Guannian looked at the burly man: "Did you hear that? Our Shen family doesn't owe you any money, so hurry up and leave!"

The burly man chuckled sinisterly: "I never said that the man surnamed Shen owed us money."

"If it's not that someone surnamed Shen owes you money, why are you coming to our Shen family asking for money?"

"Because he's the son-in-law of your Shen family, Liao Youhe, he slept with one of our young female prostitutes who had never served customers before!"

His words caused a huge uproar. As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Mingxuan shrieked, "You're talking nonsense! That's impossible!"

Madam Zhen retorted angrily, "My son could never owe you money! He's the most sensible and filial son; he's devoted to his studies and would never go to your Wanye Tower! Five hundred taels? You might as well rob us!"

Shen Guannian's face was as dark as if it were about to rain: "You can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want! Our Shen family's son-in-law would never touch your male prostitutes! You're going to ruin the reputation of the Shen family and your son-in-law!"

In an instant, the expressions of everyone in the courtyard were varied, and their expressions were quite interesting.

Only Shen Wantang had anticipated this and was not surprised at all.

She just felt that Liao Youhe had been exposed a little too early in this life.

Perhaps it was Shen Mingxuan who made him live in the Shen family and exposed him to the extravagant life in the capital, which made him unable to suppress the desire deep in his heart!
