What did she bring herself here for!
The answer was soon revealed.
Two people walked out of the room. When Tang Yu saw them, his eyes lit up.
"Mom, when will Dad come home? I haven't seen them for a long time." The little guy pulled the woman's sleeve and asked with his little head tilted up.
The woman suppressed the sadness in her heart and said firmly, "Your father has gone to a very far place and will not be back for a long time. You must be good and obedient here, understand?"
"Mom, can we go home? I don't like it here." The little guy said with a bitter face.
"Why don't you like it here?" the woman asked patiently.
"They won't let me leave this yard. And they all bully you. Humph, when daddy comes back, I must tell him and ask him to avenge us." The little guy said naively.
When the woman heard what her son said, she could no longer control the tears in her eyes and burst into tears.
"Mom, what's wrong with you?"
"Lin'er." The woman called her son's name and cried sadly.
Just then, the door was kicked open. The heavy sound startled the mother and son in the room. A plump woman walked in, looking at the woman with unfriendly eyes.
"Why are you crying in the middle of the night? You're ruining our good life by crying, you unlucky woman." The fat woman said bluntly.
Tang Xilin walked forward and gave the fat woman a hard shove, "Don't bully my mother."
The fat woman was caught off guard and was pushed directly by him. She took two steps back and hit the door panel behind her.
"Hey, you little bastard, you dare to push me? I'm going to beat you to death today."
The fat woman rushed forward, raised her hand, and slapped Tang Xilin in the face. Tang Yu's wife rushed forward but failed to block it. The slap hit Tang Xilin's small face hard, and in an instant, red marks appeared on his face.
"Wow"……
Tang Xilin burst into tears.
Tang Yu, who was hiding on the rooftop watching all this, was furious. However, he could do nothing.
"I'm going to tell my dad and have him come back and beat you."
The plump woman put her hands on her hips and said, "Your father? Your father will be executed soon. You and your son, you'd better behave yourself. If you piss us off, we'll kick you out."
Tang Yu's wife's eyes were red and tears were falling. "Aren't you afraid that I will tell Manager Tang about this?"
The plump woman smiled and said, "It's no use telling anyone. I'll tell you plainly. Steward Tang has asked us to watch you until your husband dies. If you obey, we'll spare your life. If you don't, we'll send you and your family to reunite in the underworld."
The plump woman continued to sneer, "Do you think Steward Tang brought you here just to give you a good life? Starting tomorrow, get up at dawn, prepare breakfast, and clean the courtyard. If I catch you slacking off, I'll punish you."
The chubby woman looked at the sobbing mother and son, spat at them, and just as she was about to take a step forward, she stopped, turned around and said to them, "Don't even think about escaping. There are people watching everywhere. If they find you trying to escape, you will be treated as a criminal slave. Don't forget, you are the palace's house slaves."
