Qian Peilan had long harbored resentment towards her daughter-in-law, Zheng Pei. Zheng Pei had always relied on the fact that her family was on par with the Hu family and had never shown her much respect. After the Hu family's changes, Zheng Pei disregarded her, the mother-in-law, even more. The Hu family was no longer under their control, but the Zheng family remained as powerful as ever.
In addition, Zheng Pei forcibly adopted Huang Yi'an into the Zheng family, which made Qian Peilan very dissatisfied with Zheng Pei. The imperial edict issued by His Majesty a few days ago was still fresh in her mind, which praised and rewarded Huang Yi'an. If Huang Yi'an were still in the Hu family, wouldn't this honor belong to their second branch?
If Huang Yi'an had lived up to expectations and gained His Majesty's favor, it wouldn't have been impossible for them to regain power in the Hu family. But now, this woman has ruined everything, and they no longer have the strength to contend with Hu Mingmei. They have even lost Huang Yi'an.
It's all because of this woman! This woman is truly a jinx to the Hu family, no, she's truly a jinx to the Huang family!
Qian Peilan had long wanted to teach Zheng Pei a lesson, but she had never found an opportunity. Zheng Pei was always surrounded by people. Today, she finally found an opportunity. Zheng Pei actually walked right into her life, giving her an excuse to teach her a lesson.
With both old and new grudges combined, Qian Peilan's gaze towards Zheng Pei seemed to spit fire. Originally, she was still somewhat wary of the two watchdogs beside her, but who knew that they could stop Zheng Pei without any reaction from them? Qian Peilan became even bolder.
It's like heaven is on her side! Not only is Zheng Pei all alone, but these two watchdogs aren't doing anything either. Today, let her teach her a lesson!
Immediately, Zheng Pei was slapped repeatedly by Qian Peilan. It was as if Qian Peilan wanted to vent all the unhappiness she had been experiencing over the past few days on Zheng Pei, and she hit Zheng Pei like a madwoman.
Zheng Pei knew she was going to get a beating from this old hag today, so she didn't beg for mercy or say a word. She just stared at Qian Peilan with a vicious look in her eyes, as if to say that she hoped the situation would kill her, otherwise she would kill her if she had any chance of survival.
Zheng Pei's hands were held down by several old women, but she managed to kick Qian Peilan and struggle with all her might.
Qian Peilan was focused on Zheng Pei's eyes and didn't notice that Zheng Pei had kicked her in the chest. She was furious, and Zheng Pei was just as fierce. With this kick, she actually sent Qian Peilan flying.
Qian Peilan cried out in pain, and seeing that none of them could hold Zheng Pei down, she immediately shouted, "Are you all dead? Why aren't you holding her down?!"
So several women started massaging his hands and feet.
"Should we tell the madam since they're fighting so fiercely?" the guard muttered to himself. Because of their fight, the two of them were now huddled together.
"No need!" One of them was so engrossed in watching that he had seen many men fight, and had even been in a fight himself, but he had never seen women fight, let alone fight so fiercely.
For a moment, I couldn't take my eyes off it.
"Second Master said that we shouldn't disturb the young mistress too much in this courtyard, and it's best not to tell her anything!"
"That's true!" Upon hearing this, the other person felt relieved. Right now, Bai Nuo is the most important person in the entire Hu family. They are just people who eat by watching Hu Mingmei's mood. What right do they have to disturb Bai Nuo? They have already disturbed her once. If they disturb Bai Nuo's rest again for this kind of thing, Hu Mingmei will blame them.
But the two of them decided that while they could watch the show, they couldn't let the old woman beat the person to death. Seeing that the beating had gone on long enough, the two of them stepped in to break up the fight. "What are you doing? Stop it! Are you trying to kill her? Old lady, this is still your daughter-in-law!"
"What I do is none of your business, you dog servant!" Qian Peilan was very unhappy when she saw that someone was holding her back. She slapped the man who was holding her across the face.
"That old hag, still so wicked at her age!" The guard's face changed instantly. Although he didn't fight back, he still held Qian Peilan tightly, not wanting to let her get away with it. He sneered and said, "What the old lady does is none of my business, but I'm not your servant, and it's not your place to curse me! If you want to hit or kill, please go back to your courtyard and do it there. Don't disturb others here!"
Seeing that Madam Zheng was already on the verge of death, the guard's impression of Qian Peilan worsened, and he felt a little regretful for not stopping the fight at the beginning.
"Go and call someone to take her to the courtyard!" the guard said after a moment's thought. Anyway, Madam Zheng knew that Huang Yikang was sick and didn't mind his illness, so it shouldn't matter if they were together.
There is a doctor in the courtyard.
The guard who was supporting Madam Zheng originally intended to put Zheng Pei down, but seeing that Zheng Pei seemed unsteady on her feet, he said, "Madam, please forgive me!" and then helped her into the courtyard.
Seeing that Madam Zheng had left, Qian Peilan and her servants were told to leave, "Go away, you are not welcome here!"
“I am Hu Mingmei’s grandmother, how dare you drive me away?” Qian Peilan roared.
Normally, these servants would never dare to do such a thing. It would be a great disrespect to their master, an act of insubordination. But now, in this mansion, whether it's a sixty-year-old woman or a three-year-old child, everyone knows that Hu Mingmei doesn't respect these so-called relatives. He treats them like pets and doesn't take them seriously at all.
