Chapter 304 Unleashing Divine Power
Fourth Uncle and Fourth Aunt?
Sheng An and Xu Jinnian's expressions changed slightly, and they immediately realized that the newcomer was definitely up to no good.
Just then, a strange, sarcastic male voice came from outside:
"Jin Nian, how could you not invite your fourth uncle and aunt on such a joyous occasion? Don't you respect us, your elders?"
Then came another female voice that seemed understanding, but whose words were actually barbed:
"Oh dear, you know what kind of person this child is. He's always been very independent since he was little. After moving to the city, he's become estranged from the village elders. I guess he just overlooked this and forgot to inform us."
The couple took turns occupying the moral high ground, accusing Xu Jinnian of being arrogant, ignorant of manners, disrespectful to elders, and even ungrateful in front of all the guests.
The guests looked at Sheng An and Xu Jinnian with varying expressions, filled with surprise and doubt.
Only Tan Zhenlin and his sister, and Song Zhihang, looked angry, clearly aware that the two people speaking outside the door were there to cause trouble.
The gatekeeper turned pale and hurriedly explained to the couple, "Sir, Madam, I didn't let them in!"
Sheng An said gently, "It's not your fault, you can go now."
The gatekeeper breathed a sigh of relief, quickly bowed, and took his leave to guard the gate.
Sheng An instructed Hong Liu to carry Zhuo Zhuo back to the backyard, and together with Xu Jin Nian, they walked to the outside of the front hall, looking expressionlessly at the three people walking towards them.
Walking side by side in front were Xu Laosi and Feng Lianhua, with a young, beautiful, and graceful girl following closely beside them.
The girl's makeup was exquisite, with upturned eyes and a hint of allure in her gaze; she wore a thin pink dress that revealed her slender shoulders and a large expanse of skin on her chest.
Her ample bosom rose and fell with her steps, more dazzling than the sun on the horizon.
This is definitely not how a respectable person should dress.
The girl spotted the most dazzling man in the crowd, her eyes immediately lit up, and without caring about the many people present, she winked at Xu Jinnian.
"Oh!"
Sheng An saw through the couple's disgusting intentions and laughed in anger.
Xu Laosi and Feng Lianhua had already approached. Looking at the couple on the steps, whose clothes and demeanor had changed drastically, and then at the spacious mansion, the flames of jealousy in their hearts almost burst forth from their eyes.
"Jin Nian, Jin Nian's wife, what are you doing blocking the door? Don't tell us you don't want us to come in for a cup of hot tea and see my newborn grandniece?"
Seeing that Sheng An and Xu Jinnian clearly looked disgusted, Xu Laosi immediately put on a stern face and adopted the airs of an elder: "Jinnian, you are well-read, yet you don't know how to respect your elders!"
Xu Jinnian looked at the man who dressed respectably but whose wicked nature was still undeniable, and coldly ordered Li Tian, "These three troublemakers have trespassed on my private property. Get them out of here right now."
Li Tian was stunned for a moment, then quickly waved to the other guards: "What are you all standing there for? Get up!"
Having said that, he pounced on Xu Laosi first.
Xu Lao Si never expected that Xu Jin Nian would act unpredictably, showing no regard for his reputation in front of so many guests and kicking them out without a word.
No, they still have a big surprise in store.
Enraged, Xu Laosi pointed at Xu Jinnian and uttered reckless words:
"You cursed bastard, if you dare to kick us out today, my son will not let you get away with it!"
Feng Lianhua also shouted loudly, "We are your elders, we came to offer our congratulations, aren't you afraid of being criticized for kicking us out like this?"
The guests were also surprised by Xu Jinnian's reaction, but they guessed that there was something they didn't know about, so they wisely didn't try to persuade him and just watched as Xu Laosi and his wife argued loudly.
Based on what the two of them just said, it's clear they weren't there to offer their congratulations sincerely.
Li Tian and his guards grabbed Xu Laosi and his two companions and dragged them out, just as they ran into Xu Chenglin and the two elders of the Sheng family who had rushed over after hearing the commotion.
Upon seeing that the troublemakers were these two, Xu Chenglin's anger flared up instantly. To the astonishment of the guests, he took off his shoes and began slapping Xu Laosi and Feng Lianhua repeatedly across the face.
"You two shameless bastards dare to cause trouble at my granddaughter's full moon celebration! Do you think I'm dead if I don't show my power?!"
"ah--"
"Ouch—"
Xu Laosi and Feng Lianhua screamed in agony as they were whipped. Blood began to ooze from their lips after just a few slaps with the soles of their shoes, and their mouths swelled up visibly.
Unfortunately, their hands were firmly restrained by the guards, and they couldn't even cover or dodge, so they could only let Xu Chenglin's shoe soles hit their mouths.
The girl standing nearby turned pale with fright, closed her eyes, and screamed at the top of her lungs, terrified that she would be beaten too.
She still relies on this face to make a living; if it gets damaged, her life will be over.
This gruesome scene terrified the guests present, who craned their necks, eager not to miss a single exciting detail.
Xu Jinnian looked ashamed and bowed to everyone in apology:
"I'm so sorry to have startled you all today, it's really, really, alas..."
The sigh was quite evocative, and the guests exchanged glances and began to fill in the blanks with their own imaginations.
It must be that these troublemakers did something particularly wrong to Lord Xu's family that made Old Master Xu so furious that he took off his shoes and started hitting them without regard for his own dignity.
Among them, several women thought even more deeply, and their eyes were filled with deep sympathy as they looked at Sheng An.
With such a hot-tempered father-in-law, Mrs. Xu's life must be very difficult.
Given his father's character, it's likely that Lord Xu's temper is not as mild as it appears, and he probably has a history of abusing Madam Xu in private.
Alas, Madam Xu is so pitiful!
Sheng An had no idea what the women were imagining; she was silently cheering on her father-in-law in her heart.
If it weren't for her status as a junior and not wanting to cause Xu Jinnian to be laughed at, she would have taken off her shoes and rushed up to give her a few more whacks.
This one-sided attack lasted for about a quarter of an hour. Amidst the increasingly faint cries of pain from Xu Laosi and Feng Lianhua, Xu Chenglin finally stopped and put the deformed shoes back on his feet.
Looking at their two faces, swollen like pork belly, with features almost indistinguishable, Xu Chenglin took a few deep breaths and spat fiercely:
"For the sake of my granddaughter's one-month celebration, I'll let you two bastards off the hook for now! If you dare to come here again and cause trouble, I'll make sure my shoes rot and stink!"
Xu Laosi and Feng Lianhua were in a daze and couldn't hear what Xu Chenglin said at all. They were dragged out of the yard like dead dogs by Li Tian and the others and thrown into a secluded corner.
Xu Chenglin was getting on in years, and it was quite strenuous for him to swing his shoe at someone. He was covered in sweat and exhausted.
Seeing this, Sheng An quickly stepped forward to help him up, saying, "Father, you've worked so hard."
Xu Chenglin smiled wryly: "Sigh, I can't deny that I'm getting old."
When he was younger, he wouldn't stop smoking for an hour straight.
But those two bastards are so shameless, it's a real shame that even after all that slapping, their skin didn't come off!
