Chapter 26 The Old Lady's Quarrel
Chapter 26 The Old Lady's Quarrel
"Madam, it's not good, it's not good..."
In the flower hall of Xie's house, the old lady sat at the top of the table, listening to her daughters-in-law talking. She just picked up the teacup and took a sip.
The sudden shout startled her.
The tea she just drank almost choked her to death.
Liu frowned and angrily shouted at Wang Po, "What happened? You are yelling and shouting like that. How can you be so rude!"
When Mrs. Wang saw the old lady coughing and gasping for breath, she was afraid of being punished, but after hearing what the eldest lady said, she no longer cared.
"Old Madam, something bad has happened. The eldest daughter has returned home..."
The old lady had a hard life in the first half of her life, and her life has only gotten better in recent years.
All he wants is to become a noble lord and enjoy wealth and glory.
I have always hated hearing unlucky words.
She was already annoyed that Wang Po scared her and made her choke on her tea, and now she kept saying bad things.
He slammed the table in anger and said, "The girl is back now, it's not worth your yelling. If you dare to be so unruly again, I'll slap you in the face twenty times."
Mrs. Wang knew that she had violated the old lady's taboo, but she couldn't suppress her trembling voice.
"Madam, it's not that I don't know the rules, it's the young lady...she tore down the gate."
"What did you say?" The old lady was stunned at first, then she became furious after realizing what was happening, "This is really outrageous."
She knew that nothing good would happen if she came into contact with that disaster star.
When he was born, he brought death to the old man and that bitch Su.
Although she was not killed, she broke her leg. The second and third wives also met with accidents one after another.
If Su had not secretly sent that disaster star to Sanqing Mountain for foster care, she would have drowned her in the urine bucket long ago.
I had lived in peace for so many years, but I didn't expect that he would dare to tear down the gate as soon as he returned home.
If she didn't punish her properly, wouldn't she think that the Xie family would let her do whatever she wanted?
The old lady slammed her hand on the table again, "Someone, bring that damn girl to me."
When the second and third wives heard the word "eldest girl", they remembered what happened in the past and wished that the old lady would punish her severely.
After hearing what the old lady said, the two sisters-in-law not only did not stop her, but added fuel to the fire, making the old lady even angrier.
Liu wanted to say a few soft words, but when she thought about the huge amount of money she had lost and the humiliation she had endured in order to pick up that little bitch, she was no longer willing to say a good word for her.
Xie Ying frowned, and wanted to say something, but finally gave up.
Although the girls from the second and third rooms didn't say anything, they all had an expression of gloating as they waited to watch the show.
Everyone here has different thoughts.
The gatekeeper looked at the two doors lying on the ground, shocked and angry.
Seeing the young lady slowly stepping into the gate, he wanted to step forward to stop her, but when he saw the maid beside her, he couldn't help but feel timid.
When Nanny Zhang saw the maids and old women whose faces were bruised and swollen by the falling door panels, she didn't feel the slightest bit of sympathy.
These servants are all snobs who flatter the powerful and look down on the weak. They clearly heard the hammer knocking on the door, but they deliberately avoided opening it. They deserved it if it was smashed.
Xie Lan stepped through the gate but didn't rush inside. Instead, he slowly looked around the mansion.
Hearing the aggressive footsteps, she turned her head to look.
The ones who came were three big and strong women.
The one walking in front ran to the inner courtyard when Tiechui kicked the door open, probably to tell her grandmother a message.
The other two old women looked very arrogant and must have been the servants in her grandmother's yard.
Seeing Xie Lan looking at them, the two old women looked contemptuous.
"This is the eldest girl, right? Come, take her to see the old lady."
Nanny Zhang knew that everyone in the Xie family disliked Xie Lan, but she never expected that Old Madam Xie would have this attitude.
If the eldest daughter of the family was taken away like a criminal, not only would her reputation be ruined, but even the servants in the mansion would trample her under their feet. Aunt Zhang protected Xie Lan and said, "How dare you! The eldest daughter is the eldest daughter of the family. Who dares to disrespect her?"
Mrs. Zhao and Mrs. Sun were the old lady's confidants, and they both knew very well how much the old lady disliked this eldest girl.
He didn't take Nanny Zhang's words to heart at all and reached out to push her away.
Seeing that the person coming had bad intentions, Xie Lan raised his chin and said, "Madams, judging from your faces, there will be a bloody disaster today.
I advise you not to act impulsively, otherwise... you will regret it."
The two maids, Zhao and Sun, looked arrogant and obviously did not take her words seriously.
The maids and old women who were knocked down by the gate earlier also knew that Miss Xie Lan was not favored by the masters in the mansion.
They were also angry that she had just ordered the door to be removed, causing them to be injured.
They all gathered around, wanting to take advantage of the opportunity to add insult to injury.
Although Xie Lan didn't want to use violence on the first day back home, these people refused to listen to her advice and insisted on coming to her doorstep to establish her authority. She didn't want to let them down.
"Hammer, hit me as you like, don't be polite."
Tiechui twitched his lips. The girl's sincere tone made people who didn't know think that she was inviting her to enjoy the famous braised pork elbow of Zuixianlou.
Although he was complaining in his heart, Tiechui moved quickly.
As soon as Xie Lan finished speaking, she flew up and swept her long legs.
Bang bang bang.
The maids and old women who surrounded them instantly fell to the ground and wailed.
Zhao and Sun, the two maids, relied on being the old lady's confidants. On weekdays, even Liu and the others had to give way to them. They never dreamed that Xie Lan would dare to let people beat them.
Xie Lan ignored their annoyed looks and clapped his hands instead, "Tiechui, good job. Your salary will be doubled this month."
After following Xie Lan for many years, Tiechui and Nanny Zhang have become accustomed to her hateful behavior.
When the old lady heard the report from the servant, she almost vomited blood in anger.
"That evil star, how dare she! She has caused unrest in the family on her first day back home.
Why bring her back? You should just let her stay in Sanqing Mountain to fend for herself."
Just as Second Madam Peng was about to make some provocative remarks, she heard a cold voice coming into the flower hall.
"After more than a decade of indifference, I also want to know why you took me back."
More than ten years later, Mrs. Peng and Mrs. Zhu saw Xie Lan again, and both sisters-in-law felt unhappy.
This eldest girl was so beautiful that she made the other girls she gave birth to look like maids.
The old lady's face became even gloomier. This disaster star was actually three times more beautiful than her bitch mother.
"You just came back home and you broke down the gate and beat people up. Do you take me, your grandmother, seriously?
How did you learn the rules and etiquette over the years? "
Xie Lan stood in the flower hall with a distracted look on his face.
"You are my grandmother? I am really sorry. All these years, I have been born by a mother but not raised by a father.
I thought the Xie family was all dead and I was the only one left."
This was the first time that the old lady was cursed to death in front of her, and her blood rushed to her head.
"This is outrageous, you little bitch, you are just as shameless as your mother! What are you doing back here? Why don't you die in Daqing Mountain..."
Xie Lan's expression turned cold, "Old Madam, I see from your face that you shouldn't talk too much today. Otherwise, there will be a quarrel and blood will be shed."
The old lady has always had the final say in the Xie family, so how could she tolerate Xie Lan cursing again and again?
"I really regret not drowning you in the piss bucket. You bastard, kneel down... ah!"
The old lady didn't take Xie Lan's words to heart at all. Halfway through her scolding, she suddenly screamed and blood gushed out of her mouth.
