Chapter 460: Zhu Hongyun Also Joins the Fight
Given the sacrifice of his mother, Tong Sanlang really wanted to appear before Qiao Xiaomai at this moment, to hold her comfortably in his arms.
Because he loved her, she had to tolerate his mother’s unreasonable actions.
The face of Madam Zhang had swollen like a pig’s head, her hair disheveled, and she felt as if a knife was messing up her stomach, causing her to hold her stomach with both hands, her body curled up like a shrimp.
Hearing Tong Sanlang’s words, she couldn’t help but grit her teeth and say, “Who in the entire village doesn’t know you two are a couple!”
“That’s a misunderstanding by everyone in the village. We are innocent. She knows two princes, and she has favor from the retired emperor. Why should she marry a poor country boy like me? Mother, if you go to her house to cause trouble and she treats you the way she treated the Sun Family, I won’t be able to help you.”
Tong Sanlang stopped Tong Xingda, his face expressionless.
His mother dared to go to her doorstep for food before he and Qiao Xiaomai had any formal engagement.
His mother’s entitled attitude scared him.
If Qiao Xiaomai truly married him, wouldn’t his mother naturally take over everything in the Qiao Family?
No, he couldn’t let Qiao Xiaomai suffer this kind of grievance.
“You ungrateful wretch, defending her even before marrying her!” Upon hearing this, Madam Zhang burst into tears.
It was hateful; he even spoke the words ‘I can’t help her’!
Sure enough, Qiao Xiaomai was a wicked woman who had bewitched her son!
“Mother, I said, with my current status, I can’t marry her. She doesn’t plan to marry, and I don’t plan to marry either.” Tong Sanlang’s handsome face darkened as he spoke slowly, word by word.
Seeing this, Tong Tiehu became impatient and said, “Why bother arguing with her so much? If she can’t remember, just hit her each time she causes trouble at the Qiao’s. See if she remembers then!”
After saying this, Tong Tiehu turned to look at Zhu Hongyun, his face darkened, “Daughter-in-law, you’re not completely innocent in this matter, are you?”
After all, the idea with the sour plum soup had initially been suggested by Zhu Hongyun. Google seaʀᴄh NoveI★Fire.net
Zhu Hongyun, scared silly by Tong Xingda’s violence, immediately denied it upon hearing Tong Tiehu’s words, shaking her head aggressively, “I don’t know, I don’t know anything!”
Madam Zhang, who was on the ground, heard this and started cursing, “Slut! The idea was obviously yours in the first place!”
Tong Tiehu snorted coldly, “Sanlang, restrain her. Xingda, hit her!”
Upon hearing this, Tong Sanlang immediately moved into action.
Although it didn’t feel right for him to hold down Zhu Hongyun, but Tong Tiehu gave the order, and he would naturally obey.
Tong Xingda walked over with a gloomy face and scolded, “My brother was such a good kid until you led him astray, you lazy, good-for-nothing dimwit!”
Having said this, he immediately delivered a slap.’
The intense pain spread rapidly from her cheek over her entire body. Zhu Hongyun, who had never experienced this kind of punishment before, was stunned for a moment and then struggled fiercely, “You all are biased towards Qiao Xiaomai, yet you dare to say you’re not trying to marry her?!”
“You just fancy her status and property, that’s why you want to please her!”
However, her struggles were nothing compared to Tong Sanlang’s strength.
Furthermore, after hearing her words, Tong Tiehu’s face turned even darker, “Xingda, hit her!”
Stung by her words, Tong Xingda became somewhat angry and embarrassed, and his attack became more severe.
Two slaps in, Zhu Hongyun’s face had also swollen like a pig’s head.
Tong Erlang, who was watching from the sidelines, was so scared that he immediately knelt on the ground to beg Tong Tiehu, “Grandfather, stop hitting her, stop hitting her!”
“Will you dare to talk nonsense in the future?” Tong Tiehu stared at him coldly.
“I won’t, I absolutely won’t!” Tong Erlang replied with teary eyes.
“And what about you, daughter-in-law?” Tong Tiehu looked over at Zhu Hongyun.
At this point, Zhu Hongyun’s mouth tasted a sickening sweet, and the pain made her head dizzy. She no longer had the stamina to talk back and shouted, “I won’t do it, I won’t do it!”
