Chapter 133 The Madam's Fangs
Chapter 133 The Madam's Fangs
Jiang Xinyu was hitting her too hard, and Xu Qinglan didn't dare to go over and pull her away. She just cried and mumbled a few useless words.
But love-struck Ye Xiao couldn't resist listening to her plead for him. When he heard Sister Lan pleading for him and crying so pitifully, Ye Xiao's heart ached more than his face.
While struggling and resisting, he cursed filthy things.
Well, this kid's got a tenacious spirit, huh? Well then, don't blame me.
Jiang Xinyu suddenly stood up and took a step back, stomping on Xu Qinglan's foot just as Xu Qinglan was about to help Ye Xiao.
With a crack, Ye Xiao screamed and fainted.
No one expected that the usually easy-going lady would be so ruthless, actually breaking Young Master Ye's leg.
The butler knelt down with a thud, trembling and at a loss for words.
Xu Qinglan cried genuinely this time, no longer caring about feigning weakness, and angrily berated Jiang Xinyu for being so heartless while urging the steward to call a doctor immediately.
While things were in chaos, Xiao Yuan finally rushed back, and you could tell how anxious he was from the sweat on his face.
Upon seeing Xiao Yuan, Xu Qinglan felt as if she had found her pillar of support and immediately wanted to rush over and complain about Jiang Xinyu.
Xiao Yuan didn't even glance at her or look at the miserable Ye Xiao on the ground. He directly picked up Jiang Xinyu and asked her if she was hurt.
Xu Qinglan's heart sank, but she still cried, unwilling to give up.
"Brother Yuan, please look at Xiao Ye! Xiao Ye... his leg is broken."
Xiao Yuan frowned, only then realizing that the person lying on the ground was his godson whom he hadn't seen for many days.
Jiang Xinyu smiled coldly, "I did it. Not bad, right? Look how evenly the face is swollen."
Explain to me first, what are these two doing?
Xiao Yuan panicked immediately. "Madam, don't be angry. This boy is my adopted son. He hasn't been back for over a year, and I forgot to tell you."
This is my godmother's niece, so she's... kind of a cousin.
"Oh, it's my cousin. I'm the one who's been rude."
Jiang Xinyu smoothed her hair as she spoke, "Why didn't you tell me beforehand that my cousin was coming to visit?"
Look at the mess this has made! Your kid is a laughingstock, and you're making a fool of yourself in front of everyone.
As she spoke, Jiang Xinyu blatantly pinched and twisted the soft flesh on Xiao Yuan's waist.
“I stay inside the house all day long and am completely out of touch with the world. Could it be that my husband doesn’t know that we are having guests?”
At least give me some time to prepare! Look how rude you've become.
Jiang Xinyu smiled seductively, but her pinching was equally fierce. Xiao Yuan didn't dare to dodge and could only force a smile, saying he didn't know his cousin was coming.
Xu Qinglan didn't expect Jiang Xinyu to have such a personality. Seeing Xiao Yuan's face turn red from being pinched and not daring to utter a sound, she felt even more heartbroken than seeing Ye Xiao's leg being broken.
Xiao Yuan put his arm around his wife and whispered in her ear, begging for forgiveness, saying he would explain later. He couldn't help but feel annoyed that Ye Xiao and Xu Qinglan were so troublesome.
Why did you have to cause trouble in Madam's courtyard when you're back? Now you're in trouble too, even he's being dragged into it.
Jiang Xinyu glared at Xiao Yuan, implying she would deal with him later, then immediately put on a bright smile and invited Chunxing and the others to sit down and have tea.
Since it's Miss Cousin who's here, she's a distinguished guest. We can't not treat her well.
Xu Qinglan looked at Xiao Yuan with teary eyes, not understanding why her brother Yuan was so subservient to that woman.
That woman was vulgar and vicious; she broke Xiao Ye's leg. Doesn't Brother Yuan have anything to say about that?
What could Xiao Yuan possibly say? He's not stupid; he knows exactly what's going on.
It must have been that idiot Twelve who provoked Madam on his own initiative. He deserved to be beaten up because he was outmatched.
His wife has always been soft-hearted; she wouldn't even kill a maid who betrayed her master. The fact that she could so cruelly break his leg must mean that this boy has crossed her line.
Considering our many years of friendship, it's already quite generous of him not to pursue the matter. What more do you want from him?
Let him say that this kid should be thrown into the Asura Hall and trained all over again.
The lady has only trained in speed and stamina, and has never seriously learned any martial arts moves. If she can't even beat this, what kind of job can she do? It's best to go back to school and start over.
Xu Qinglan wanted to back down when she saw that Xiao Yuan was unreliable, but she couldn't suppress her anger when she saw Jiang Xinyu's bright smile.
Just then, Ye Xiao woke up with a groan, and Xu Qinglan quickly rushed over to wipe his sweat.
"Xiao Ye, how are you? Your leg is broken, don't move it. The doctor will be here soon."
Waaaaah, it's all my fault.
Since Brother Yuan's family doesn't welcome me, they can just let me stay at an inn. Why did I have to argue with the lady and suffer this misfortune?
After Xu Qinglan finished speaking, she turned to Jiang Xinyu and said, "Even if Madam can't tolerate me, she shouldn't have been so cruel to Xiao Ye."
Breaking a leg after just a few words of argument? That's too cruel.
Jiang Xinyu laughed in exasperation at these words, and poked Xiao Yuan's shoulder to signal him not to pretend to be mute.
Xiao Yuan coughed and immediately retorted, "Cousin, what are you saying? My wife is the kindest of all. When has she ever said that she wouldn't entertain relatives?"
As for Twelfth, this unfilial son deserved to be beaten for disrespecting his adoptive mother.
Jiang Xinyu chimed in, "Children won't amount to anything without being disciplined. His cousin, don't worry about it. We parents know how to raise children."
That damn cousin of yours!
Xu Qinglan had been playing the role of a confidante to Ye Xiao, but now this "cousin" comment really disgusted her.
Lying on the ground, Ye Xiao almost fainted again upon hearing these words, especially his godfather's attitude, which he found hard to accept.
Has the Governor's Mansion changed so drastically in just over a year since he left?
How could his godfather be so cruel to him? His legs were broken by that woman, yet he still blamed him.
What a load of rubbish! That Jiang family girl isn't even as old as him.
No matter how unwilling they were, Xiao Yuan clearly sided with Jiang Xinyu, and the two could only suppress their resentment and bitterness.
Jiang Xinyu calmly leaned back in the rocking chair, picked up a slice of watermelon, and smiled as she invited Xu Qinglan to sit down.
She's a very hospitable hostess, so she naturally treats her relatives with great hospitality when they come to visit.
Just as he finished speaking, the doctor arrived, and Ye Xiao was carried back to his own courtyard for treatment.
Xu Qinglan hesitated for a moment but did not follow. She stared at Xiao Yuan with a hesitant expression, as if she had a thousand tender feelings to express.
Jiang Xinyu seemed oblivious to Xu Qinglan's fixed gaze on Xiao Yuan, and casually said while munching on watermelon,
"Little Bean, pass on the family rules."
Xiao Yuan was immediately jolted awake.
Oh my god, are you going to hit me?
No way, at least give me some face. Can we fight inside?
You can use any kind of rattan cane or whip, or even pinch my nipples or spank if you're still not satisfied. I promise my husband will be obedient and won't resist.
Chief Supervisor Xiao had a rich inner monologue, but he didn't show it on his face. He was planning to run away as soon as possible if the madam said she would hit him.
Confucius said, "If you are struck by a small stick, you will accept it; if you are struck by a large stick, you will run away."
He was, after all, a high-ranking official, and couldn't let his servants laugh at him.
Little Bean was much more perceptive than the steward. He could immediately send someone to obey the madam's command, and he even pretended not to see the eavesdropping of the supervisor.
What's there to fear about offending the Grand Eunuch? The Lady can protect him.
Offending the lady would be truly courting death. The eunuch would not only fail to plead for her, but it would be a sign of a change of heart if he didn't kick her while she was down.
He's not stupid; how could he not even be able to distinguish between the king and the queen?
Needless to say, the efficiency of the governor's mansion was excellent. In no time, a few benches and several servants holding thick sticks were ready.
Jiang Xinyu glanced indifferently at the butler and the two guards.
"Thirty for the steward, fifty for these two, beat them!"
