Picking Up a General to Plow the Fields

Chapter 516: The taste of being wronged

Control? If only she could control Lian Fang Zhou! She and her husband had been working hard on this matter but had never succeeded! Now she was being slapped down by her eldest brother’s self-righteousness, how could she not be angry in her heart!

“No wonder!” Eldest Madam Qiao sneered, rushing to say: “No wonder you drove us away that day, regardless of Ah Lei’s injury! So you had such thoughts! Hmph, if we hadn’t left that day, this matter would have been resolved long ago! Why else would there be so many troubles! Aren’t we your relatives? How could you be so cruel to your own nephew!”

“I didn’t! I didn’t!” Madam Qiao cried angrily, her heart like ice.
Her body trembled like a leaf in the wind and her eyes were dark.
She could feel a faint pain between her stomach and her chest.

How could they say that about her! How could they say this! In all these years, which year did they not receive more than ten taels and gifts from her? In their hearts, she was actually such a person?

“No?” Second Madam Qiao sneered.
“If not, then why are you so obstinate? Sister, why are you like this? You’re just guilty!”

“Yes! It’s a guilty conscience!” Eldest Madam Qiao said loudly.

The two sister-in-laws had formed a rare alliance to launch a crusade against Madam Qiao, who was so angry that she couldn’t even refute!

“Mother! Mother!” Madam Qiao cried in a panic, her eyes moist as she looked at Old Madam Qiao aggrievedly, asking her to speak a few words of justice.

But under the light of seven hundred taels and the boundless fortune of the Lian family, how could Old Madam Qiao still have the mind to think of all the benefits her daughter had given them? On the contrary, the more she listened, the more she felt that, though her daughter-in-laws were harsh, they were clearly telling the truth.

She coughed heavily and said loudly: “Stop arguing! Shut up! Why are you still arguing! Third girl, don’t be wronged.
Come, let’s go to your niece’s house.
As long as this matter is done, I will ask her to give you an apology.”

Madam Qiao’s eyes widened in disbelief.
It was as if everything she had said just now was just air.
They hadn’t listened to a word at all!

There was another chill in her heart.
Mother meant that, if this marriage failed, it meant that her sister-in-laws were right?

But she was very clear on this matter, the marriage was impossible!

She knew what kind of person Lian Fang Zhou was.

Second Madam Qiao smiled and said: “Exactly! As long as this marriage is completely, let alone apologizing, she can just kneel down and kowtow to you!”

Eldest Madam Qiao immediately got up to help Old Madam Qiao to her feet: “Yes! This matter is not too late! Let’ go, let’s go! Sister-in-law, you won’t refuse, right?”

Old Madam Qiao stared at Madam Qiao coldly.

Madam Qiao moved her lips but could she refuse?

It was so ironic.
If it was in the past, she would never give up a chance to find an opportunity to make trouble for Lian Fang Zhou, but now a good opportunity was in front of her and she couldn’t refuse!

What in life was permanent?

“Go, I’ll go…” Madam Qiao said mechanically, her mouth bitter.

“Then let’s go!” Old Man Qiao cried, also getting up.
The spirit of the whole family was revived and their faces were bright.

“Where is my talented grandson, go and call him! We’ll go right away!” Old Man Qiao ordered Madam Qiao.

Madam Qiao’s face turned even paler and she said in a soft voice: “He, he originally planned on going out to visit friends today.
Since he made an appointment, he had to go.
He’s, he’s already gone out…”

“What!” Old Man Qiao frowned unhappily: “How can the affairs of outsiders compare with our own affairs? He is young, he can’t tell priorities!”

Eldest Master Qiao chimed in: “You didn’t hide my nephew on purpose, did you? Otherwise, why would he just leave without saying hello?”

Seeing her parents give her cold, suspicious looks again, Madam Qiao hurriedly wrung her hands and said: “No, how could I dare! He really did make an appointment with someone! It must be because time was tight that he couldn’t come and chat for a few minutes…”

Eldest Master Qiao and the others wanted to say more but Old Man Qiao waved his hand: “Forget it, since he gave his word, it’s fine.
He also approves of this matter! Let’s just go!”

Madam Qiao opened her mouth in surprise.
Her son agreed? When did her son agree?

She groaned inwardly but didn’t dare to argue, she could only accompany them to Lian Fang Zhou’s house with a bitter face and a restless mind.

Intentionally or not, Second Madam Qiao pushed her to take the lead.

When Bi Tao opened the door, she was stunned to see this large group of people.

She didn’t know the others, but she knew Madam Qiao.

Could anyone brought by Madam Qiao be good people?

Bi Tao stared at Madam Qiao vigilantly and said: “What do you want? Are you bringing so many people here to fight? My Miss and young masters have all made their opinion clear! It’s fine if you want to seek revenge but how dare you come to the door! Get out of here quickly!”

Madam Qiao didn’t want to be here so she didn’t’ say anything.
She lowered her head, which made Bi Tao a little surprised.

In order to show off her future mother-in-law aura, Eldest Madam Qiao gave Bi Tao a hard look and said coldly: “Do you have eyes? A little girl dares to yell at a master? This is your master’s eldest aunt and we are her maternal relatives! You better shut up or I’ll tear your mouth apart!”

“Don’t talk so much!” Old Man Qiao barked.
He was also annoyed by Bi Tao but he thought their business was too important to entangle with a little servant.

As long as the marriage happened, couldn’t they deal with her later? It was just saying a few words!

He straightened his back and said to Bi Tao with a firm expression: “Where is your master? We are here to talk to her! Tell her to come out!”

Come out and greet us.

After Bi Tao heard that these people were all Madam Qiao’s maternal family and seeing Eldest Madam Qiao’s attitude, she felt disgusted.
She didn’t care about their age and spat: “My Miss won’t see any member of the Qiao family! Shameless bastards, daring to come to the door? Do you really think my Miss is easy to bully?” Saying this, she slammed the door shut with a loud bang.

Seeing that the little servant didn’t even give him face, the heavy sound of the door closing made his heart thump.
Flustered and short of breath, his expression was livid!

Second Madam Qiao was also disappointed.
Starting at Madam Qiao in dissatisfaction, she said: “What kind of people are your niece’s family? The children are so ignorant but you don’t care at all!”

Old Man Qiao also glared at Madam Qiao in dissatisfaction.

Angry, Madam Qiao snapped: “I told you that girl was stubborn but you didn’t believe me! Let’s go, she won’t open the door!”

“Leave, leave!” Old Madam Qiao suddenly cursed at Madam Qiao, “I know what you’re doing now! You don’t care about us at all and can’t see us living well! Leave? I don’t believe we can’t do this without you! Hmph, let’s see if she doesn’t open the door.
I don’t believe she won’t!”
