Chapter 248
When Yang Xiaotao entered the Qi's Manor with a team of elite soldiers and some gifts, Qi Hongling's father and elder brother were being reprimanded face-to-face by the Qi's clan bosses.

Qi Hongling's mother was accompanied and persuaded by her sister-in-law, trying to suppress her anger for her own health.

It turned out that just last night, Qi Hongling's patriarch uncle sent someone to send news to Qi's Village.

There were two pieces of news, one was that Li Qingwen had ridiculed and insulted Qi Hongling in public again, and the other was that the Li family was dissatisfied with the Qi family again.

Qi Hongling's patriarch uncle didn't dare to do anything to the Li family, so he vented his frustration at being beaten to Qi Hongling's parents, brother and sister-in-law.

He ordered several clan elders who lived in Qi's family village to come here today to remind Qi Hongling's parents, brothers and sister-in-law, and let them be cautious about the children in the family, and not to harm the reputation of the younger generation in the family because of a married woman who has divorced and future.

When several clan elders came over, Qi Hongling's parents, brother and sister-in-law were gathering in Qi Hongling's mother's room, discussing how to get rid of the current predicament.

Not only Qi Hongling, but they have also had enough of the oppressive life of being half-captive.

The Qi family is afraid of the Li family, and most of the members of the Qi family are greedy for the benefits that the Li family has given them. They have already decided to sacrifice the Qi Hongling family for their own sake.

At first, the patriarch and elders of the Qi family only forced Qi Hongling's parents, brother and sister-in-law to make concessions, forcing them not to stand up for Qi Hongling.

Later, as the relationship between Qi Hongling and Li Qingwen continued to deteriorate, those in power in the Qi family also increased their "punishment" against Qi Hongling's parents, brother and sister-in-law.

They raised the banner of "everything is for the family", and when they should protect the clansmen most, they chose to step on the bones of the clansmen to seek benefits for themselves.

Befriend Li Shi, tacitly divide up the large sum of money that Li Shi gave out for peace affairs, regardless of the misfortune of Qi Hongling's family's tears and swallowing blood.

However, even so, none of the members of the Qi clan stood up to complain for Qi Hongling's family.

They are used to the strength of the clan, and they are also used to the power of the patriarch and the elders. Naturally, they will not offend the family ruler who also controls the fate of their small family for the sake of other people's family.

Fortunately, Qi Hongling met a boss who did not hesitate to support his subordinates. After deciding to bring her under his command to train and inspect her, Ye Anlan sent Yang Xiaotao to support Qi Hongling's family.

She asked Yang Xiaotao to visit Qi Hongling's sick mother on her behalf with soldiers and horses.

Qi Hongling didn't know anything about it, but the offshoots and servants of the Qi family were frightened and limp by this group of elite soldiers who were full of killing spirit.

They didn't even dare to offend Mrs. Li, let alone Ye Anlan, the current lord of Jeju.

Yang Xiaotao announced her name and intention of coming, and then the servants, whose faces were pale with fright, greeted them directly into the Qi family's old house with trepidation.

At the same time, the elders of the Qi clan have also received news.

Their confidant subordinates broke into the house without paying attention to the notification, and then said such and such in the ears of their masters.

Those old Qi clan members stared wide-eyed, with unconcealable shock and fear flashing across their faces, they even forgot that they were still reprimanding Qi Hongling's father and brother.

Although Qi Hongling's father and brother also had confidant servants to help deliver the news, but the master lost power, and the servants who were loyal to them had to keep their tails between their tails. Now that these Qi clan elders are still here, it is obviously not suitable for them to show up immediately.

There was no way, Qi Hongling's father and brothers could only quietly observe the elders, hoping to see some clues from their sudden changes in their faces.

However, before they could see anything, those clan elders, accompanied by their long entourage, strode out to meet Yang Xiaotao.

In private, Yang Xiaotao was Ye Anlan's personal bodyguard, but Ye Anlan gave her the title of commander in public so that she could travel outside.

Coupled with the fact that Yang Xiaotao is one of Ye Anlan's most trusted and respected subordinates, these clan elders are afraid of her, and they really dare not belittle her publicly.

They rushed out of the courtyard in a hurry, then bowed their hands and greeted Yang Xiaotao from a distance.

Yang Xiaotao bowed her hand to return the salute, she neither gave them any face nor flattered them with excessive enthusiasm, after doing all the courtesy, Yang Xiaotao passed them and walked straight towards Qi Hongling's father and brother.

"Junior Yang Xiaotao, on the orders of my lord, I came here to visit Mrs. Qi who is sick in bed. If you take the liberty of coming here, please don't blame Master Qi."

She was very polite to Qi Hongling's father, completely different from her attitude when facing the old Qi clan.

Qi Hongling's father's lips trembled. He was in a very complicated mood at this time. Of course he was happy, but at the same time, he couldn't help feeling sad belatedly.

Feeling sad that his daughter is obviously having a harder time than anyone else, but she still has to run outside with all the gossip for her parents, brother-in-law, nephew and niece.

Feeling sad that their family obviously did nothing wrong, but they were cornered by the Li and Qi clans.

While trying to suppress the complex emotions that surged out of him, he took his son to bow his hands and returned the salute, "General Yang, you are welcome. You can come, and our family is too happy to be happy."

Yang Xiaotao nodded slightly to him and Qi Hongling's brothers, "Then Master Lao Qi will send someone to take me there to pay respects to Mrs. Zun."

Before Mr. Qi could speak, one of the elders of the Qi clan had already pushed his son out, "General Yang, why don't you let the dog take you there, him."

Yang Xiaotao's expression suddenly turned cold, she fixedly looked at the elder of the Qi clan, "Is this your house? Are you the master?"

The old Qi clan subconsciously took a step back after being stared at by her, because he felt that he had lost face, and his face immediately became extremely ugly.

The young man pushed out by him wished he could find a crack in the ground to get in. As the eldest son of the Qi family, he had always lived a luxurious life in Qi's Village, and this was the first time Someone didn't show any face to his old father, so he also lost such a big face.

Seeing the reaction of the father and son, Master Qi couldn't help shouting in his heart, "It's what you deserve! What a retribution!"

Of course, on the surface, Mr. Qi, who also pays attention to etiquette and demeanor, will not show his gloat. He pretended not to hear the conversation between the clan elder and Yang Xiaotao, but sent someone in his yard A seven-year-old boy who worked as an errand boy in the house accompanied Yang Xiaotao to the back house to meet his wife.

His wife had also received the letter at this time, and while she asked the eldest daughter-in-law to help her wash and change clothes, she asked the younger daughter-in-law to bring the children to her side.
