NOVPUB"Fortunately, his niece came with him. If he was all alone then this mer would have smeared all kinds of blame on his head."
"Humph, what can you expect from snd rates?"
When Master Xiao was calling Yu Le names, he did not think that there was anything wrong with it but the snd he heard someone call his sister 'snd rate' and 'low born,' he exploded.
He turned to look at the crowd and with his face that wasntorted in rage, he snapped harshly, "What do you say? Who are you calling snd-rate and low-born? My sister is a scholar! A scholar, do you hear me? She is studying in the academy in the town. How can she be low-born?
You are not allowed to speak nonsense about my sister!"
His sister was his bottom line and Master Xiao would do anything to protect her.
But he forgot that he was not at home but in the market, his wife and her other husbands would give him face as they did not want to ruin their family but the crowd of onlookers were not the same.
If Master Xiao lded them, they would ld him right back. Sure enough, a person in the crowd sneered, "What kind of scholar relies on her married brother?"
"That's right, and what kind of woman dresses so flamboyantly? Especially if she is studying?"
Women who dressed heroically were treated well by the people of this world and the ones who dressed themselves in pink and similarlours were not treated well. The people of this world thought that they were weak and sickly.
As thelour pink wasnnected to mers.
Snd Sister Xiao who was dressed in a pink robe was thus not treated well.
What was more, Master Xiao was lding everyone like a shrew. Howuld anyone have even the slightest good feelings towards him?
Madam Kong was so embarrassed that she wanted to crawl into a hole and die but sheuld not do that, so she turned to Yu Le and with an apologetic expression said, "I am really sorry, Uncle Le. I am really sorry, it's all my fault. I did not teach my husband well."
Yu Le glanced at the mer whose face was turning blue and white before saying in a light voice, "I have nothing against you, Little Kong. But since your husband made such a mistake, ask him to kowtow and apologise, I am his elder after all. He had called me a fox and blamed me for this and that. How can this be allowed?"
He was indeed really angry, but he did not want to quarrel with someone as muddleheaded as Master Xiao. Such a mer would always believe that he was in the right and there was no point in saying anything to him. He might as well take a small revenge and then leave the matter in the hands of Master Xiao.
Anyway, he was not asking for too much. He was indeed Master Xiao's elder in a way. After being called a fox, heuld punish him righteously.
If Madam Kong refused then he would ask his niece to think of a way to cancel thentract without losing too much. A woman who doesn't have her own family and husband underntrol, she was doomed to cause trouble for herself and her close ones sooner or later.
Fortunately, Madam Kong was a smart woman. She immediately turned to look at her husband and said to him, "What are you standing there for like a mute? Go ahead and speak! Do you think that you are in the right of what?"
"Hurry and apologise to Uncle Le."
Master Xiao heard the words of his wife and his expression turned gloomy. Why should he apologise in front of so many people?
Sure he made a mistake but like Yu Le said, he was his junior. Couldn't he look over this small mistake? Why was he making a fuss about something so small?
There was no need for him to apologise to him right?
If he were to apologise here then he would be slapping his face, what would he do after this?
How would he face everyone in the future?
He wanted to refuse but his wife glared at him leaving him with no other choice.
Knowing that he had no way left to escape, he stared at Master Guo aggrievedly. Hoping that the mer would stop Madam Kong. Why would Guo Zian help Master Xiao? Just now he heard this mer talk behind his back.
After all the support and care he had shown him, this mer actually went behind him and called him such despicable names.
Where was he stern? If he was stern then would this mer still be able to hand money and meat to his family? He wouldn't dare to!
Madam Kong who noticed his actions got even more angry. She spoke in a heavy voice, "Master Xiao kowtow now!"
At this point even if Snd Sister Xiao wanted to ignore Madam Kong, sheuld not as the woman was now shouting at her brother to kowtow. If he was to kowtow then where would she place her face?
Stepping on Master Xiao's face was equivalent to stepping on her face. After all, he was buying clothes for her, if he were to lower his head now, then it would bme very difficult for her to make Master Xiao buy clothes for her in the future.
She looked at Madam Kong unsatisfactorily and said to her sister-in-law, "What's the matter, Sister-in-law? How can you make my brother lower his head for outsiders like this? No matter how much you dislike my brother, he gave birth to two daughters for you. At least show him some respect."
Madam Kong's face turned black as she clenched her fingers.
"It will be better for you to speak a bit less! I haven't even started on you."
