Qiao Xin scolded him harshly, and when she got so angry, she even slapped him twice!
Qiao Xin was so disappointed that she poked her chest and said, "If I had known you were so capable of such trouble, I shouldn't have pulled you out of the wolf pack just now!"
"Mom, did you encounter a pack of wolves?" Qiao Yunqing looked at her with a grim face.
Qiao Xin's body froze, and she let go of Heng Wen as if nothing had happened. She forced a smile at Qiao Yunqing and said forcefully, "Isn't it normal for Weizhou Prefecture to encounter a pack of wolves? I don't know what's wrong with this kid. He insisted on leaving the city today. If he hadn't run into the second kid from the Fan family who was bringing people to do something, it's hard to say whether he would come back now or not."
"Why should a man be afraid of a few beasts?"
Qiao Xin was furious when she heard this. She glanced at the other person and found that he was someone she didn't know, but he looked familiar.
The other person was wearing casual clothes, had a sturdy build, handsome looks, a beard, a square face, and was intimidating without even getting angry. Upon closer inspection, he was simply a middle-aged version of Qiao Yunxin.
This must be the Marquis of Dingbian, the scumbag father of Heng Wen and Qiao Yunxin!
However, since the other party did not reveal his identity right away, she felt less worried.
As soon as he opened his mouth, his taunting value was maxed out, "Hey, who are you? You are so capable!
It would be a relief for him, a seriously injured kid, not to wet his pants on the spot as he had to deal with more than forty wolves alone!
Isn't this a big deal? Look at how capable you are! If someone doesn't know, they would think you are hoping for his death.
Fortunately, the child’s parents were not present, or else they would have slapped you twice.”
"More than 40?" Everyone present was stunned! Heng Wen didn't know why Qiao Xin said that he did it, but he instinctively believed that Qiao Xin would not harm him at this time.
So I chose to remain silent and keep my head down!
Seeing her good attitude of admitting her mistakes, everyone realized that what Qiao Xin said was probably true!
Qiao Yunqing had never expected it to be so dangerous. The usually reserved person also became worried at this moment, "Mother, are any of you injured?"
"No one on our side is hurt, but a few villagers in Laohu Town were injured, so this kid is capable of causing trouble!"
"Young Master, why didn't you say a word? How badly have you been offended?"
Butler Zhu was also frightened after listening to this. What a blow this child must have suffered, how come he couldn't even complain when he met his biological father?
It is said that children who cry will be loved by others, and they will endure any beatings by themselves. Even when the little ones take medicine, there will be people to coax and persuade them!
He is also the son of a marquis, so why did he suffer such a terrible fate?
"I'm fine, Butler Zhu. Aren't I standing here just fine?"
Heng Wen introduced Dingbian Hou, who had an unpleasant expression on his face, "Father, this is Aunt Qiao, the mother of Second Brother Qiao. They are all my son's lifesavers."
Dingbian Hou was so angry at Qiao Xin just now that he couldn't save face for the moment. At this moment, he had a gloomy face and didn't say anything.
Seeing that the atmosphere was somewhat tense, Butler Zhu stepped out to smooth things over, bowing to Qiao Xin repeatedly and expressing his gratitude.
She didn't look down on him at all because of his countrywoman's dress. This made Qiao Xin have a much better impression of him.
Qiao Xin didn't care how Dingbian Hou looked at him. He looked at Heng Wen with curiosity and asked playfully, "Your father?"
"yes!"
"Oh, you are his biological child?"
"How dare you! How can a woman like you speak without restraint?"
Marquis Dingbian felt that if he didn't speak up, this woman would throw all the dirty water on her.
"No wonder I'm suspicious. You look well-dressed and don't seem like someone who's short of money. How come it's been almost a month since your son went missing and no one from your family has come to look for him? If someone didn't know, they would think your family was dead."
"you!"
Marquis Dingbian was speechless and unable to refute for a while.
"Father has his own difficulties. As the head of the family, he has too many things to do. My younger brother is injured and needs someone to take care of him. It is possible that he is too busy to take care of him. I understand!"
Heng Wen looks well-behaved, but what he says always has a hint of green tea.
"Tsk tsk tsk, Dad is busy, what about mom? Are you two born of the same mom? Does your mom know what happened to you?
How can a mother eat and sleep well when her son is still alive and no one cares about him?"
"My aunt is in charge of the household affairs in the mansion. She cares about me very much, but my brother is injured and can't leave!"
Qiao Xin suddenly realized, "Oh! Stepmother, no wonder?"
Qiao Xin's strange "Oh~" didn't mean anything, but it made people interpret it in a different way!
Marquis Dingbian's face turned purple, but he couldn't get angry.
He came out in a low profile and did not introduce himself at the beginning. Now it seems that this ignorant woman does not know Heng'er's identity! That's why she dared to speak so recklessly and insolently!
He gave up his original plan to reward the Qiao family handsomely.
With such unreasonable elders, the family tradition of the Qiao family is not good at all!
Whatever, a country woman doesn't need him to lower himself to thank her. Let Butler Zhu handle it! He raised his chin towards Zhu Shun and stopped talking.
After receiving the master's signal, Butler Zhu had no choice but to stand up and say, "The master and the old master have sent people to look for the young master. As soon as they get the exact news, they will come to take the young master home immediately.
Madam Qiao is so kind, and the whole Heng family is grateful. Madam Qiao has any requests, just let me know, and my master will do his best to satisfy them!"
Qiao Xin flicked her sleeves and waved her hands nonchalantly, "No, no, I'm not used to taking advantage of others. You should take him back quickly. Our poor family can't afford to keep a canary. If he stays here any longer, my whole family will have to eat dirt.
Just settle all his expenses in our house. What's the point of being grateful or unfaithful? For a poor family like us, nothing is more important than having enough food and warm clothes. I won't take advantage of you, two thousand taels will be enough!"
