Transmigrated only to be buried? To voluntarily commit suttee for her husband? Xu Zhichun, terrified, lifted the white shroud and sat up, tearfully telling everyone that King Yama wouldn't take...
Chapter 119 Is this intentional?
Zeng Xiaoyan smiled sarcastically, speaking as if she had treated her as a relative.
"Then please ask Mother to please beg me on my behalf. Please, have her spare me. After all, I'm no longer an eyesore to her. What else could she possibly be worried about?"
"you!"
Mr. Zeng raised his hand again, but this time, facing his daughter's slightly raised chin and clear eyes looking straight into his, he could not bring himself to slap her.
It takes two to tango. He knew that his wife was also wrong, but his wife was his elder and his mother. As a concubine's daughter, what else could she expect?
"roll!"
Zeng Xiaoyan turned around and left without hesitation.
She left so decisively, so abruptly, and so quickly that when Mr. Zeng was stunned and thought she would look back, she had already disappeared.
Mr. Zeng suddenly felt complicated. He couldn't explain what he felt, but he felt a little irritated.
What could Liang Mingliang and Young Master Zeng have to talk about?
As soon as Zeng Xiaoyan came out, he hurried over from the other side, "Wife!"
As soon as Zeng Xiaoyan looked up, Liang Mingliang yelled, "What's wrong with your face, daughter-in-law? Did your father-in-law hit you? Why did your father-in-law hit you?"
Young Master Zeng: “.”
Will I die if I don't speak so loudly? The guys moving goods and cleaning are all listening intently.
Zeng Xiaoyan was originally full of resentment, but when she saw Liang Mingliang and heard him yelling, most of her anger disappeared instantly, and she almost couldn't help laughing out loud.
Of course it was impossible to laugh. She was clearly wronged, so what was so funny?
"Husband, stop talking," Zeng Xiaoyan tugged at Liang Mingliang's sleeve. Her voice was low, but the eavesdroppers could hear it. "Dad didn't mean it."
Did she want face? Did she want dignity? Respect isn't given by others; it's earned. Since they treated her like this, why did she still "see" them and protect their dignity?
They never gave her face anyway.
Liang Mingliang was even more anxious, distressed, and angry: "Can't you just talk it out? Why did you have to hit someone? Even if they are elders, you can't just hit them!"
Master Zeng, who could vaguely hear through the door and window, had a face as black as the bottom of a pot. He clenched his fists and cursed softly, "What kind of son-in-law is this?" It's true that people of the same family are alike. This marriage should never have been accepted in the first place.
What's wrong with the boss? He's letting him talk nonsense there. Doesn't he think he hasn't said enough and embarrassed himself enough?
Should he, as a father-in-law, go out and quarrel with his son-in-law?
Young Master Zeng finally couldn't stand it anymore and stepped forward to scold: "That's enough, it's okay now, why don't you leave quickly."
"Who do you think wants to stay here? You'll get beaten up if you come. Who wants to come here? You two are really father and son. You both love to hit people!"
"You--when did I hit her?"
He had never hit Zeng Xiaoyan, even though he looked down on her, despised her, ignored her and hated her. When had he ever hit her?
Is this country bumpkin really stupid or just pretending to be stupid? He is very good at making false accusations, which is really scary.
"Bah! Wasn't it the last time?" Liang Mingliang became even angrier when he saw him deny it. He didn't mind remembering it for him, "It was Miss Zeng and her servant—"
"That's enough!"
Young Master Zeng was furious when he saw that this guy was even trying to involve his sister. "We don't have time to entertain you here. We have a lot of things to do. Please go back!"
"You won't let me tell you, but you remember it?"
“.”
Zeng Xiaoyan felt both pleased and relieved, so she decided to quit while she was ahead. She tugged at Liang Mingliang's sleeve and said, "Husband, let's go. Forget it."
The Fangzi issue hasn't been completely resolved yet. If they are really offended, what if the Fangzi issue stirs up trouble again? Wouldn't Sister Zhichun's trip be in vain?
All three families are counting on making money from the stall.
Young Master Zeng's forehead veins throbbed: "Forget it? What do you mean by forget it?"
Forget it, he is too lazy to bother with them!
Young Master Zeng felt helpless and annoyed as he watched them leave. Then he secretly breathed a sigh of relief and turned to enter the flower hall.
"father."
"Huh, everyone's gone?"
"I'm gone, now I have some peace and quiet. This scoundrel is really a dog that can't spit out ivory. Dad, please don't bother with him."
"Oh, of course I won't argue with him!"
Even if he wanted to "fight him," what could he do? He could beat his own daughter, so how could he beat someone else's son? The Liang family was obviously protective of their own shortcomings.
Thinking that even his daughter dared to dodge his slaps and was so sharp-tongued that she made him very angry, Mr. Zeng felt uncomfortable again and had a vague feeling of "getting old, getting old".
"What do you think about this?"
"Why don't you ask mother and uncle first."
Mr. Zeng nodded, and suddenly remembered what Zeng Xiaoyan said that he was only allowed to call him "uncle" in front of him, and that he would be punished if he called him that in private. He felt a little complicated.
He knew many things, but a concubine's daughter was still a concubine's daughter. Could he really turn against his wife for a concubine's daughter?
That damn girl isn't starving, she's not even satisfied with herself. Is she still dreaming of competing with her older sister? Is that even possible?
In the final analysis, even if the wife was only two points wrong, she was still eight points wrong.
"Anyway, convince your mother and uncle not to mention this matter again, and don't do anything behind the scenes. It's just two or three simple dishes. How much money can you make? Our Zeng family doesn't do such cheap things. Don't make a fool of yourself. Besides, you see, the other party is not a pushover. If a fight breaks out, everyone will die. How would that look?"
"If you don't like it, then don't look at it. Out of sight, out of mind."
Young Master Zeng heard the warning in his father's words. Although he felt a little uncomfortable, as if Zeng Xiaoyan had won, he still nodded and said, "Dad is right."
"Just now I heard that brat say something about your sister being a master and servant. What's going on?"
Young Master Zeng was speechless for a moment, cursing Liang Mingliang, the fool who pretended to be stupid, in his heart, "No, nothing——"
"explain."
"It was before my sister left. One time, Wen and I were shopping with Mingzhu, and we happened to run into them. Xiaoyan and Mingzhu were arguing, and Liang Mingliang got involved, and the argument started again. Then I took Mingzhu away."
"Just that?"
"Yes, you know Xiaoyan has been like this since she was a child, petty and calculating. Mingzhu naturally won't indulge her. And Liang Mingliang is a fool, what good words can he say? I don't think it would be a laughing stock if we made a scene in the street, so I quickly took Mingzhu and the others away."
Mr. Zeng nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
Young Master Zeng breathed a sigh of relief, and once again cursed Zeng Xiaoyan and Liang Mingliang in his heart. These two were nothing but idiots. They were annoying every time he saw them.
