Old Madam Qian, seeing that Teacher Gao was so much older than her younger daughter, demanded a hefty bride price, even more than what was given for her eldest and second daughters. Surprisingly, Teacher Gao really agreed.
The Qian Family’s younger daughter also smoothly married into the Gao Family.
Over the years, Old Madam Qian frequently went to Teacher Gao’s house to stir trouble during the Mid-Autumn season, and the younger daughter, in order to live her life peacefully, just went along with it.
Luo Qiao laughed and said, "So what drama is this today?"
Miao Shuang glanced at Old Madam Qian, who was still causing a commotion in the back, "The family’s younger son is getting married. The bride-to-be says it’s impossible without a house, and now they’ve set their sights on Teacher Gao’s house."
Luo Qiao looked at Miao Shuang as if in disbelief, "Her younger son is getting married and she is demanding a house from her son-in-law?"
Miao Shuang nodded, "Unbelievable, isn’t it?"
Luo Qiao smiled, "Indeed, it’s quite absurd."
Only then did Miao Shuang slowly explain, "Teacher Gao’s house has been handed down from ancestors. The courtyard isn’t big, but the main house alone has four rooms, plus there are four wing rooms on each side. The old lady wants to move her younger son into Teacher Gao’s courtyard.
Nobody would agree to this, not just Teacher Gao. She’s been making scenes at home every day, and later, she caused a ruckus at the neighborhood committee. Now, she’s brought her drama to the school, still trying to make Teacher Gao give in. Just watch, she’ll keep making a fuss."
Luo Qiao felt indignant for Teacher Gao, "Having a mother-in-law like that is truly miserable."
I thought it was just a farce, but to my surprise, the matter quickly burned over to me.
After we had lunch at the cafeteria and were about to head back to the office, we didn’t expect to see Old Lady Qian running out of the school’s security office, dashing around, trying to find Teacher Gao. Judging by her demeanor, she hadn’t reached an agreement and wanted to continue the trouble.
The security staff who chased after her were on the verge of collapse. They tried to reason with her, but the old lady simply wouldn’t listen, and they were afraid she might do something outrageous.
Unexpectedly, Old Lady Qian suddenly turned around and ran up to Luo Qiao and Miao Shuang who were passing by, reaching out to pull Luo Qiao, "My great-niece, you’re here too! This is perfect, you have to help me speak up. There isn’t a single good person in there."
With these words, Old Madam Qian was cursing everyone in the entire school.
Luo Qiao took a step back, "Who’s your great-niece? Don’t go around recognizing relatives here."
Old Madam Qian shrieked, "You child, how could I mistake you, we met at Qiuping’s wedding."
Hearing the name Qiuping, Luo Qiao’s face became chillingly cold, "You’d better shut your mouth, or I won’t hesitate to make your entire family face the north wind."
Seeing Luo Qiao’s unfriendly look, Old Madam Qian didn’t dare to go too far and whispered, "Great-niece, I really had no choice, please help me."
Luo Qiao picked up her phone and directly dialed her second brother’s number, "Second brother, try to get in touch with He Qiuping and have him come to the school right away, take her aunt away, or else he will see what I can do."
Luo Xuyuan was in a meeting. Hearing his sister’s words, he knew that He Qiuping’s relative was making trouble, so he said, "Alright, I’ll notify him right now."
Luo Xuyuan found out the number and dialed it. Once the call was connected, "Please help me find He Qiuping."
"Speaking, who’s this?"
"I’m Luo Xuyuan, Ning Xueling’s second son."
Upon hearing that he was the wife’s second son, He Qiuping’s heartbeat quickened, "Xuyuan, what do you need Uncle for?"
"Hurry over to Beijing Medical University and take your aunt away. Don’t let her upset my sister. You have half an hour. If you can’t handle it, you’ll bear the consequences."
After speaking, he hung up the phone, picked up his coat and car keys, and walked out.
The assistant hurried to catch up, "President Luo, the meeting isn’t over, is it?"
As Luo Xuyuan walked downstairs, he said, "Let them mind their own business. We’ll continue when I get back."
After hanging up the phone, He Qiuping kept thinking about what Luo Xuyuan had just said. As soon as he realized who his aunt was, he promptly asked his boss for leave, went out, hailed a taxi, and headed straight for Beijing Medical University.
He and Luo Xuyuan arrived at Beijing Medical University one after another. By then, Old Madam Qian had already been taken into a small conference room by the security guards.
