Chapter 616: Just Think of It as a Wedding Gift
If it were someone else, they might really be intimidated by the Gong family.
But who is Xingxing?
Xingxing has seen many different faces of the Gong family!
Xing Xing opened the carriage curtain and didn't get off the carriage. She looked down at the Gong family and said, "You are from the Gong family, right?"
The one who came to stop people from the Gong family was the old lady of the Gong family. She had caused trouble at the Yu family before, so she was familiar with them.
Old Lady Gong smiled at Xing Xing and said, "My dear, we are going to be in-laws now. You should follow Qing Niang and call me grandma. My dear, please let grandma come up and have a good talk with you."
Xing Xing didn't say anything. The shadow in the carriage was so angry that her eyebrows were raised. She pinched her waist and cursed: "Bah! Where did you come from, old hag! It would be fine if you blocked our Xiangjun's way, but you have the nerve to ask our Xiangjun to call you grandmother without any reason?! What kind of grandmother are you! You treated our Xiangjun's future second sister-in-law harshly and drove her out of the house. The judgment is filed in the government! If our Xiangjun's future second sister-in-law didn't have distant relatives to rely on, I'm afraid she would have no home to return to now! How dare the old hag come to our Xiangjun and show off her grandmother's power!"
Zhaoying was eloquent and spitting when he cursed, which made the people watching the excitement around him roughly understand the whole story. They all started pointing fingers at Old Lady Gong.
Old Lady Gong was so angry that she was not afraid of boiling water. She smiled and said, "How can that be possible? Qingniang is a child who doesn't understand things. We are her family members. How can we just make a decision?"
Zhaoying wanted to scold again, but Xingxing raised her hand to stop Zhaoying. Xingxing only asked Mrs. Gong: "Are you done? You allowed your third son to stab my second brother, and then you came to our house to make a scene. How dare you come to my house to pretend to be a relative now? What's more, my family has recognized Sister Gong as the one who is the wife. Your family has already expelled Sister Gong from the family. How can you be considered as a relative?"
Old Lady Gong opened her mouth to say more, but Xing Xing did not give her the chance: "That's all I have to say. Be well with yourselves."
Xing Xing returned to the carriage, sat down, lowered the curtains, and said, "Let's go."
Old Lady Gong was unwilling to give up and wanted to chase Xingxing's carriage. However, a group of people came out from the dark alley, covered Old Lady Gong's mouth and dragged her into the alley like a dead dog.
The man in the lead had a cloth covering his face, and judging by his figure he looked like a teenager.
The people standing around him respected him and were obviously the old lady Gong who was captured at his command.
Old Lady Gong sat on the ground, trembling: "You, who are you——"
Most of the leading man's body was hidden in the shadows of the alley, and one could only see that his face was covered with a cloth, so his features could not be seen. However, this only aroused the fear in Grandma Gong's heart, and she could not even speak clearly.
The leading man seemed to sneer.
When Mrs. Gong heard the voice, she was stunned.
This voice also sounds like a teenager...
She trembled: "...Yes, is it the money that the second brother borrowed? I, we have already paid it back."
The masked man waved a fingerprint-printed IOU in his hand and said, "That was before. Look at this. Your second son owes us another five thousand taels of silver. Today is the deadline. If you can't pay it back, you and your whole family will have to pay with your lives!"
As if to verify the masked man's words, the people standing around him drew their knives from their waists.
Looking at the flashing icy blade, Old Lady Gong turned pale and almost passed out.
Five thousand taels!
Ever since Gong Lao San was exiled to Lingnan with a limp, Gong Lao Er was the only one left by her side.
Previously, Gong Laoer was almost beaten half to death by debt collectors from the gambling house. She sold her property to pay off Gong Laoer's gambling debts. As a result, Gong Laosan's wife took her children back to her parents' home and was no longer willing to stay in the Gong family.
The Gong family had been accustomed to a life of extreme luxury. How could they bear to have to eat coarse food?
Old Lady Gong originally thought that she could live her life as usual again by marrying into the Yu family through Gong Qingniang, but she never thought that she would die today?!
Old Lady Gong kowtowed to the masked man with trembling hands: "Sir, please give us a few more days. We are relatives of the Yu family, and we will definitely be able to get some money..."
The masked man sneered, "I have been following you for a long time today. I have seen that you are very ruthless in front of Gong Qingniang and the Yu family. Do you think I would believe what you said?"
Old Lady Gong burst into tears: "Strong man, spare our lives! It is useless for you to take our worthless lives, and you have stained your hands with blood for nothing! Strong man, spare our lives!"
The masked man remained unmoved and raised the sharp blade in his hand high.
At this moment, a voice came: "I have been looking for you for a long time, today I will definitely make you pay!"
Unexpectedly, another group of people rushed over from the other end of the alley and engaged in a fight with the masked man!
The masked man didn't pay any attention to the old lady Gong on the ground for a moment and started fighting with the newcomer!
Old lady Gong escaped death and used her hands and feet to run out of the alley in a hurry.
When they were about to escape from the alley, Old Lady Gong heard the masked man's men reporting to the masked man: "Boss, the old woman escaped!"
The masked man sneered: "Let them run away, we know where they live, we will kill them all tonight!"
The old lady Gong ran out in a panic and ran back to Gong's house.
At present, the Gong Mansion has been sold by them, and the Gong family lives in a dilapidated small courtyard on the outskirts of the city.
When the Gong family saw Old Lady Gong coming back, they were very excited.
Just as Gong Lao Er was about to ask excitedly, he was confronted by Gong Lao Tai, who gathered all her strength and slapped him with a big slap!
The roof of this shabby courtyard was almost blown off by the quarreling of the Gong family.
Neighbors passing by heard the noise caused by the Gong family, frowned and kept away from them to avoid being contaminated by the bad luck.
After the quarrel, the Gong family remembered the imminent disaster of extermination, and hurriedly gathered their few tattered clothes, pocketed the last few pieces of dry food, and fled the capital in a hurry. They did not dare to look back, for fear that if they were a little late, the masked man would bring people to exterminate them.
…
After Old Lady Gong left, the two gangs who were fighting fiercely in the dark alley looked at each other, stopped fighting, and gathered together.
The masked man took off his mask and raised his fist to the people around him: "Hey, thank you for coming to play this show with me today."
Everyone around laughed: "Young Master, you are so polite. It's just a simple gesture."
"That's right. Next time if you need any help, please call us."
The crowd dispersed.
A ray of light shone over, and the face under the mask was the fourth son of the Yu family, Yu Yonggui.
He curled the corners of his mouth and thought, let this be his wedding gift to his second brother and his wife!
