"You two!" The old woman covered her face with one hand and pointed at the couple with the other.
"What about us? We were just heading home, and when we got to the village entrance, we ran into dogs blocking our way and one that was biting us. We're in a bad mood, so I advise you not to provoke us anymore!" Cai Xiaolian sneered, "Hmph, I'm even more ruthless than my husband. If you say another word about my daughter, I'll tear your mouth apart!"
"Did I say something wrong? Gu Nian and my son have been having an affair! Now she's all high and mighty? Now that she's climbed up to the Li family's son, she doesn't want my son anymore?" Xu Niang struggled to stand up, getting angrier and angrier as she spoke.
Cai Xiaolian jumped off the carriage and walked over step by step: "Say it again."
The old woman took a step back: "I took advantage of his affair with my son and did everything he wanted! Now that he's hooked up with Young Master Li, he's ignoring my son!"
Cai Xiaolian slapped Xu Niang across the face.
Xu Niang was furious and reached out to grab Cai Xiaolian's hair.
Although Cai Xiaolian didn't know kung fu, she exercised with her husband and children every morning, so she wouldn't let the old woman get away with it.
The old woman became furious and rammed her head against the wall.
Cai Xiaolian kicked Xu Niang directly in the head.
With Gu Shouxin blocking their way, Xu Changfeng and the Xu family coachman were unable to step forward to help.
Xu Niang was severely punished by Cai Xiaolian. Her hair was disheveled, her clothes were in disarray, and bloodstains were scattered on her face, making her look extremely gruesome.
Cai Xiaolian's clothes were a little disheveled, but otherwise she was fine. She looked coldly at Xu Niang and said, "You can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want. From now on, if any bad things about my daughter get out, I'll come after you!"
With reddened eyes, Xu Niang looked at Cai Xiaolian and said, "Don't think I don't know. Gu Nian also had an affair with the son of the previous magistrate of Taoyuan County. You dare to hit me only because you think I'm just a merchant's wife. Why didn't you dare to hit her back then? Now your family has climbed up to the Li family. You're really something else!"
Cai Xiaolian sneered, "How do you know I wouldn't dare hit her? Since you know about the Cheng family, you should know what will happen to them!"
Xu Niang's body stiffened.
Xu Changfeng frowned and said, "Mother, stop talking. Didn't we agree to come and have a proper talk with Uncle Gu and Aunt Lian? How did you turn things into this?"
Xu Niang stared at Xu Changfeng, her eyes red, and shouted hysterically, "What kind of drug did she give you! Your mother is in this state, and you still want to marry her! You've brought home a jinx, do you want the Xu family to be finished?"
"Smack!"
Cai Xiaolian slapped Xu Niang again: "Who are you calling a jinx? Say it again!"
Xu Niang covered her face and glared at Cai Xiaolian: "You just wait! I won't let you get away with this! If I can't kill you, I'll ruin your reputation!"
After saying that, Xu Niang ran back to the carriage.
Gu Shouxin squinted at her.
Whether it was her imagination or not, Xu Niang always felt that the second son of the Gu family was looking at her like she was a dead person.
"I'm sorry, Uncle Gu, Aunt Lian. I'll come to apologize another day. I'll be going now!" Xu Changfeng felt a lump in his throat.
Gu Shouxin held Cai Xiaolian's hand: "Mother, does your hand hurt?"
The middle-aged woman in the car coughed up a mouthful of blood and asked her if her hand hurt. I can't hit her, but if I could, I'd make her face hurt.
Cai Xiaolian smiled and shook her head: "My hand doesn't hurt, but I reckon someone's face hurts!"
Xu Niang coughed up another mouthful of blood and fainted.
Xu Changfeng was terrified: "Mother! Mother!"
Gu Shouxin led his wife into the car and instructed her, "Don't do it yourself next time. I don't have a rule against hitting women. I'll hit anyone who deserves it!"
