“Sister-in-law, see what you are talking about. My second elder brother and I are blood brothers. Even if you have moved out, you can’t erase our blood connections, right?”
Before his wife made a scene, Ling Chenghu stood up, frowning, and in those eyes that were looking at Lady Wang were filled with disdain. In their hearts, be it Ling Chenglong or Lady Wang, they were their bullying objects. Now the reason they could live such a comfortable life was only because Ling Jingxuan’s paramour had brought enough money and money-making methods. As long Ling Jingxuan wasn’t here, he didn’t need to be afraid of anyone. After nailing Ling Chenglong the master of this house, wouldn’t it be a natural thing that Ling Jingxuan would bow his head and invite them in respectfully? Being filial is bigger than heaven! When the old Ling family gave up on Ling Jingxuan, no one would say anything if he gave no heed to it. But his second elder brother and his wife had never given up on their monster son. So if he dared go against them, even the villagers’ saliva could drown him.
“Yes, second sister-in-law, your words are so hurtful. If my second brother heard you, he’d definitely repudiate you!”
Just more than a month, she looked much more light-footed, and her skin turned more delicate, though the light blue clothes on her were still plain, it was made of silk which only people in the town could afford. Compared with her, she had been tortured by the old lady, Ling Chenghua and Lady Li this whole month. On thinking of here, Lady Jiang felt so mad, only wishing to rush inside and tear off her clothes and put them on herself!
Those two who had been blinded by the jealousy in the heart seemed to have forgotten that people change. When Lady Wang was at the old Ling family, she was soft-boned, but outside, she was famous for being shrewish for protecting her son. Now they had had no connections with them, how could she still wrong herself?
“Whether brother Long repudiates me or not is my thing. If you are capable, let him write the repudiating letter, I will accept it. Ling Chenghua, Lady Jiang, don’t try to suck up to me, or try to intimidate me like before, I don’t buy it. The old Ling family has already had no connections with us. So you have no right to come to my place, and I also have no obligation to entertain you.”
After coldly saying that, Ling Wang proudly turned around, her palms under her clothes were full of sweat. She had never expected that they would dare to come to her door. Who gave them the face?
“You... I won't talk to a brute b*tch like you. Let my second elder brother out. I want to see him.”
Obviously they didn’t expect Lady Wang was no longer as obedient as before. Ling Chenghu was so mad that his face turned dark red like the pig’s liver. After quite a while, he flung his sleeves and wore an ‘I won’t argue with a woman’ expression. But that pair of blurred eyes were still filled with undisguised viciousness. If he saw Ling Chenglong, the first words would be complaining about Lady Wang’s wrong doings.
“He is not at home. You’d better go away, otherwise you’d only suffer more if Jingxuan and others come home.”
Turning sideways, wearing a fake smile, Lady Wang said with sarcasm.
On thinking of Ling Jingxuan’s ferociousness, Ling Chenghu and his wife reflectively made a shiver. But the huge manor before their eyes was too appealing. Finally they got a chance, how would they give up so easily? Once they successfully convinced Ling Chenglong, not only they would have good days to live, but also their kids would gain some advantage, especially their second son and their daughter Xiaoying. Because of Ling Jingwei and Ling Chenghua’s thing, their second son Ling Jingyu’s engagement had been canceled, and their daughter wouldn’t be easy to find a husband. If they could move in here, who would dare look down on them? And those who got daughters should queue in line to marry their Jingyu. And Xiaoying, maybe they could even get their daughter a big dowry.
The more they thought about it, the more thrilled they felt, as if the better days were already waving to them. Seeing them like that, Lady Wang frowned. They had become frenzied to this level? Why still wouldn’t let go of them? Why still try to use them? Bah! A bunch of shameless things! Did they owe him what in previous life? Don’t even think of it!
“Madam, ignore them. Let's go inside. When after Gengniu comes back, he will drive them away.”
Lady Yang was not stupid, with an eyes, she could tell what they were thinking, so she hurriedly tried to pull Lady Wang to go in, in case she might get too mad to hurt herself.
“You dog flunkey, what did you say? Do you believe I’m gonna rip your mouth? You b*tch! Since when it is your turn to bark about your master’s thing?”
Hearing that, Lady Jiang jumped out and shouted abuse at Lady Yang while pointing at her. Look her appearance! She had already taken herself as the owner of the manor. Lady Yang nearly choked by her words, and instantly dissed back, “Anyhow, I still know who is the master and who is the maid. Unlike someone, so shameless and so unabashed! When the madam got miscarry because of you, have you ever thought that they were brothers? When the court came to recruit, apparently Lord Chenglong and the madam only have one healthy son, but you still pushed him out. What? Now seeing that our lord and madam finally live a better life, you are here wanting to have a piece of it? Bah! Stop daydreaming! They would never agree, let alone the three masters would never agree. Such shameless things like you deserve to live some bitter days because you ask it for yourselves!”
Ever since Ling Jingxuan bought her back, Lady Yang not only scrupulously abided by her own duty, but also often nagged her husband and kid of remembering the master’s kindness to them, and they should never do anything that went against the master. Usually, when those men were busy outside, she and her daughter would cook and do cleaning job. And when having time, they’d accompany Lady Wang to stitch shoe soles to kill time. And no one had ever said some hush words to them. Today, if it hadn’t been that Lady Jiang kept calling her dog flunky and other dirty words, she wouldn’t have lost her temper. Even Master Xuan had never treated her like this. Who gave her the right?
“Oh, you dog flunky, how dare you talk back to me? I’ll kill you, you son of a bitch, you piece of junk who is born to be a flunky, I’ll kill you...”
Anyone who had a little sense of shame, being abused by Lady Yang like that, she would only feel so ashamed and only hope to dig a hole and bury her head in it. But instead, Lady Jiang grabbed the iron gate and crazily shook it, like she was going in the next second. Fortunately Ling Jingxuan had already anticipated this. Though it was an iron gate, above was as sharp as spears, and over the walls aside were all sharp broken pieces of tiles. Common people couldn’t climb over it at all. As long as they didn’t open the gate, Lady Jiang could do nothing to them, however hard she was shouting outside.
pαndα,noνɐ1,сoМ “Enough! Jiang, this is my home! It’s never your turn to lesson her! Get out of here! I have already had no connections with you a month ago!”
Lady Wang rushed over and stood before Lady Song who Lady Jiang was yelling at, and angrily pointed at them to let them leave. Lady Jiang was stunned there, and then directly collapsed onto the ground, crying while patting on her own legs, “Oh dear heaven! Aren’t we family? Why are you driving us away for a maid? Second brother, come and see your good wife! She bullies your younger brother and sister-in-law behind your back! If you don’t repudiate her, some day she’d dissipate all your belongings…Second brother…”
Lady Jiang once again refreshed the lower limit of shamelessness. Lady Wang was so mad that she staggered back and nearly passed out. However good-tempered one was, meeting such unbelievable relatives, one would get mad…
“Master Jinghan, don’t we go over and see what’s happening? The ma’am seems quite mad. What if…”
Not far behind the grape trellis, Ling Jinghan, with a hand held behind, was watching the whole scene indifferently, while Song Shuiling aside said so while looking at him cautiously, not knowing what he was thinking.
“My mom is not that fragile.”
Not meaning to go over to help at all, Ling Jinghan still had no expression change on the face. Song Shuiling suddenly felt that Master Jinghan looked gentle and courtly, but actually he was ever harder to understand than Master Xuan and Master Sheng. What kind of son would stay so poised while his mother was being bullied?
“Hehe…never expected they’d dare come again…”
Suddenly, Ling Jingxuan’s voice came from behind them, they turned around at the same time, and saw that Ling Jingxuan who was wearing coarse linen clothes had his face covered with sweat, his waist-long hair tied up high swaying left and right along with his steps, and his face which had becoming more and more delicate was stained with undisguised sarcasm, and the curving lips also revealed his disdain.
“Big brother, why are you back so early today?”
Ling Jinghan looked at him strangely. Aren’t they supposed to be making jam now? Before, they’d usually go into the mountains to pick wild fruit in the morning, and in the after, he’d stay home and lead them to clean those wild fruit and make jam. But why didn’t he come back so early today?
Walking over to stand by her side, he found that his long and thin phoenix eyes were fixing in the direction of the gate. To be honest, he kind of admired those people from the old Ling family. After having been lessoned for quite a few times, they still had the guts to come. Would they only give up after he silenced them all?
“They have been here for quite a while and are clamoring to see our dad. I'm afraid they think that our dad is the master of this family and they want to take advantage of him to connect them with us.”
Following his sight to look over, Ling Jingxuan said with a voice seemingly having no emotion in it but actually cold. Ling Jingxuan crossed his arms before the chest, turned around and looked at him, grinning, “Isn’t it obvious? I am so wondering. Why they always take all the others as fools? Do we so much look like blockheads?”
The atmosphere in there was becoming more and more intense. But instead of going over for help, the two brothers made jokes here, which made Song Shuiling aside so confused. They were usually quite filial to the ma’am. What is going on now?
“Blockheads?”
For this kind of advanced words, Ling Jinghan obviously kind of didn’t understand. Ling Jingxuan waved a hand casually and said, “It means brainless.”
“Hehe… a good adjective, but, you said wrong. We are not blockheads, but them!”
Figuring out what Ling Jingxuan was saying, he pointed at the direction of the gate while saying so.
“In my opinion, they're not just brainless, but actually mentally retarded.”
Rolling his eyes, Ling Jingxuan said. If they are not mentally retarded, why would they keep asking face-slapping from me again and again. Are they really tired of living?
“I don’t care whether they are blockheads or mentally retarded. They are bullying our mom. Big brother, aren’t you going to help?”
With his eyes flashing a slice of teasing feeling, apparently Ling Jinghan was preparing to watch a good show. Ling Jingxuan cast a glance at his black-bellied younger brother, lips curved, “But you also didn’t mean to lend a hand, did you?”
Some things, Lady Wang had to solve it by herself, like the parents could never protect the kids for their whole life. Even as their son, they could never stay by their side all the time. Every time they had to help her solve the problem. If she couldn’t even handle a village woman, how is she supposed to face more difficult things in the future?
The two brothers gave each other a smile, finally they thought the same thing. That only one is strong isn’t really strong. Their whole family should advance together hand in hand. Besides, no one couldn’t become strong overnight. One had to experience things and then made progress. They had been overprotective of Lady Wang. Now it was time for her to reply on herself. Don’t blame her sons for being indifferent. They were doing it for her own good.
