150 What Can a Small Zhao n Do
The n head’s expression darkened as he questioned Zhao Guitang. “Is that so? As a son, how can youck respect for your mother? Even the dogs are better than you. Men, drag Zhao Guitang and his family back to the main house. We can’t let this slide, or else…”
“Or else what? How dare you use him before you even tried to understand the entire situation?” Zhao Chuchu came out from the kitchen and interrupted after hearing what the n head had just said. “How did you even be the n head? Let me give you a piece of advice. If you’re too old to see things clearly, then it’s time to back down and let other people take your spot.
“You’re like those people who stayed inside of a toilet doing nothing while others are holding their poops in. You guys just keep breaking thew. Looks like we’ll need to find a Fengshui Master to check the Fengshui of the essorial grave. The Zhao n would be doomed if the next two n heads are like you.”
Her words were able to taunt the n head and made him furious.
!!
“Don’t you dare forget that you’ve already severed your rtionship with us. This is our family matter. You have no right to butt in.” The n head gritted his teeth. “Get the hell out now, or else I’m going to make your life a tragedy.”
Zhao Chuchuughed. “Let me ask you this. Do you know why Old Madam Ma came here before this? Do you know what she has done? You don’t know a single thing. You didn’t even listen to other people’s exnations and just made a decision that Zhao Guitang and his family are in the wrong. Where’s the justice in this? Seriously, if you’re already too old to do this, just quit. Or else, the entire Zhao n of the Lengshui Vige will end in your hands.”
“Shut your trap!”
“Why? You better not regret this once the entire Zhao n gets dragged down with you.”
The other elders of the Zhao n got angry after hearing that.
“Although you have the same family name as us, you have nothing to do with our family anymore. You’re no more than an outsider. It’s better to keep your mouth shut.”
“He’s right. You are the one who wanted to get out of the family. If that’s what you want, then stop butting into our business.”
“No matter how good you are, you are not part of the Zhao n anymore. Or could it be that you want toe back? Just tell us nicely. You don’t have to use such little tricks. See, now you know how good our family is, right?”
Zhao Chuchu nearly failed to hold herugh in.
Zhao Men tried to exin, but Zhao Chuchu stopped her.
Thedy scanned through the crowd and looked at the disdained expressions on the faces of the Zhao n. She had no idea why, but she found it funny.
“Mr. Hu almost got killed by Old Madam Ma and her family. He was fortunate enough to run into me, and I managed to save him from his deathbed. They were worried that Mr. Hu might actually die, so they came here and forced Zhao Guitang to chase Mr. and Mrs. Hu out of the vige. The problem is that Mr. Hu is still in a life-threatening situation. If they move him, he dies.
“What makes you think that the Zhao n can offend the Hu n? Are you guys really not worried that if the Hu n decides to take their revenge, the entire Zhao n will have to die? You didn’t even try to understand the whole situation and went straight to using your authority as the n head, trying to beat Zhao Guitang and his family up.
“Are thews set up by the emperor a joke to you? Did you guys forget that all of you almost got burned alive by the officers? Looks like you guys have forgotten about the pain now that the wound is healed, huh? Do you think a small family like you can go against the emperor? Are you dumb?”
After that, the entire ce was so silent that even a drop of water could be heard.
The people from the Zhao n were so embarrassed that their faces turned red. Not a single one of them thought that that was the case.
“They came here to try and murder someone. What wrong did Zhao Guitang and his family do when all they’ve done was try to protect someone else? Look at you guys. You didn’t help the good guy but sided with the bad guys instead. Do you really want to be an essory to murder so badly? Let’s see if you can keep up this arrogant attitude of yours when the officers get here.”
“W-what are you talking about? Don’t you dare frame us!” Old Madam Ma got anxious. “Who said we tried to kill him? He fell and hit his head against the well himself. We didn’t do anything. Zhao Chuchu, don’t you dare think you can say anything you want just because you have some medical knowledge!”
“Did I frame you? Ask yourself that. Mr. Hu is still alive. Let’s see how you trick the officers now.” Zhao Chuchu chuckled. “Take your time. Mr. Hu’s coachman has already returned to the Hu n and I’m pretty sure they and the officials will be here soon. We’ll see what really happened then. The officials will definitely give us a fair judgment. I also heard that there’s a famous detective with them too. No crime can be hidden from him. This is the end for you.”
“I didn’t! They just want to call off the engagement, right? There’s no need to alert the county office of this. Let’s do that. You guys just have to give us 100 silvers aspensation. It’s just that easy.” Old Madam Ma was finally afraid, but she still didn’t want to let the silvers go.
“You have no say in this anymore.” Madam Zhou scoffed, “100 silvers? Over my dead body!”
“That idiot of yours was the one who wronged our Meijuan first!” Fear was written all over Old Madam Ma’s face. “It’s normal that you have topensate us for that!”
Although Old Madam Ma knew better than to act all arrogant in front of Zhao Chuchu, her attitude was still hard to look at.
“No! When the people from the Hu n arrive, they’ll teach you that there are some things that you should never have done.” Madam Zhou refused tomunicate with the olddy any longer.
“Fine. We’ll take a step back. Let’s call off the engagement now and call it a tie!” Old Madam Ma gritted her teeth.
“In your dream,” Madam Zhou replied coldly. “You guys will have to pay back for what you did to my husband. You! You are the n head, right? Let me give you some advice. Next time, make sure you understand the whole situation before you make a decision, or else you’ll just bring trouble to your own doorstep.”
Having both Zhao Chuchu and an outsider say the same thing was a huge humiliation to the n head.
However, his family was in the wrong. Since he couldn’t yell at Zhao Chuchu or Madam Zhou, he shifted his anger to Old Madam Ma instead.
“Zhao You, exin this to me right away. How dare you lie in front of my face? You almost made me do the wrong thing because I trusted you. Tell me the truth, or I’m going to kick you and your family out of the Zhao n!” the n head yelled at Zhao You.
“I-I don’t know what is going on… Isn’t this just a small matter? There’s no need to escte things. It’s going to affect the marriage too. Why don’t we just let Meijuan marry Hu Yiming?”
“We don’t wee people like you into our family,” Madam Zhou replied. “We are calling this engagement off for sure, but we’ll be the one taking the lead here. With how bad your family quality is, the Hu n will never wee you.”
“Do you really think people would want to marry your idiot?” Old Madam Ma mocked. “So, what if your family is better? You still have an idiot as a son.”
“Shut the hell up!” The n head would’ve ripped the olddy’s tongue out if he could.
That could shut Old Madam Ma up.
She was still thinking that Madam Zhou was just trying to force Meijuan to marry Hu Yiming so that they could torture her in the future.
The olddy would never let Madam Zhou get what she wanted.
Shortly after the n head arrived, the people from the Hu n arrived as well.
Zhao Chuchu quickly grabbed a stool and sat under the roof. She had the expression of someone who was about to enjoy a good movie.
