Chiang Xiao took a deep breath, "First Uncle, Second Uncle assaulted Grandpa for no reason, and you’re saying he doesn’t even need to apologize?"
Just like that, with the phrase "Don’t stoop to his level," the matter should be forgotten?
Chiang Baoguo hadn’t spoken yet when Ho Laidi let out a holler, "Hey! What do you want? Is it Baohe’s fault? You were the one who got in the way! If you hadn’t moved, would that chair have hit you?"
Hearing this, the anger Chiang Xiao had just suppressed surged up again.
"If Grandpa hadn’t intervened, that chair would have hit me!"
"It was supposed to hit you! You little bitch!" Ho Laidi pointed a finger at her face and cursed, her expression dark, "It’s totally justified for your Second Uncle to teach you a lesson! You’re the one who stirred up all this trouble, you troublemaker! Dare you say it wasn’t you who locked the door? Weren’t you the one hugging the meat, not letting it be delivered home?"
Chiang Baoguo also stared at Chiang Xiao, sternly saying, "I think what your Aunt from your father’s side said is right, Chiang Xiao. You talk about an apology, you still owe your First Uncle an apology for today’s incident at the market. Aren’t you someone who is receiving an education? Did all that learning go to the dogs?"
"What happened at the market today?" Song Xiyun didn’t dare to butt in on serious matters, but her interest was piqued at the mention of the market.
Chiang Lidong didn’t care what they were saying; he was only thinking about the meat. When Song Xiyun went back to call his grandma, she mentioned that the Chiang Family had bought several pounds of pork and some meat dishes!
He came here specifically to eat meat. "Grandma, I want to eat meat! I want to eat meat!"
As the only male child of the grandchildren in the Old Chiang Family, when Chiang Lidong made a fuss, Ho Laidi quickly soothed him, "Alright, we can’t let my precious grandson go hungry!" Then she turned to Ho Laidi, "Second Auntie, go ahead and start cooking the rice, then heat up the meat dishes first. We’ll all eat here tonight. Slice those few pounds of pork belly thin, and fry it with garlic and soy sauce. Also, take out a dollar, Caijiao, go to the grocery store and get two liang of rice wine for your grandpa. We have meat today, let him have a few drinks."
Hearing her words, Chiang Caijiao timidly approached Ge Liutao, looking at her expectantly, waiting for her to take out the money.
Song Xiyun’s eyes also lit up.
Truly, shamelessness knows no bounds.
Suddenly, Chiang Xiao felt that it would be stupid to burst a blood vessel in her brain over such people.
She forcefully suppressed her anger, and her demeanor became somewhat calmer, "Grandma, I’ll stay here and watch the house, you go to the health clinic and ask Doctor Huang to come over."
As for Chiang Baohe, Chiang Xiao already had a plan.
Ge Liutao looked a bit at a loss. She glanced at Ho Laidi, then at Chiang Songhai.
"Grandma, go now," urged Chiang Xiao, trying to keep her tone steady.
She didn’t want to boss her grandma around, but leaving just the two of them at home, she definitely didn’t feel at ease, hence she could only send Ge Liutao on the errand.
"Grandpa just got hit quite hard; what if he injured his bones or internal organs? Some injuries can’t be seen from the outside and should absolutely not be ignored."
Hearing her words, Ge Liutao panicked and quickly agreed to go out.
But Ho Laidi glared and blocked her with an outstretched hand, "Does the authority in this house now belong to someone whose hair hasn’t even fully grown in? Second Auntie, you see there’s nothing wrong with Second Uncle sitting there, are you really going to listen to Chiang Xiao’s nonsense? I said cook the meal! Your big brother will be back soon; Dongdong is also hungry, eating is the most important, understand?"
Chiang Xiao really didn’t want to argue with such a person, but no matter how much she tried to suppress her fury, she couldn’t keep it down.
"Who’s in charge here has nothing to do with you!" Chiang Xiao pointed next door, her voice cold, "Your territory is over there, take your son, daughter-in-law, and grandson, and get out!"
