Chapter 151: Chapter 152: Because You’re Asking for a Slap_1
Qiao Duo’er patted her hands as if to dust them off, and incidentally patted Tan Zhenghong’s shoulder, asking him to obediently sit in his wheelchair.
After doing so, she finally spoke, "Am I being unreasonable, or is it you? You even came to snatch my husband, and I shouldn’t resist? Should I just obediently hand over Tan Zhenghong, so he can marry your daughter?"
Qiao Duo’er spoke slowly, yet there was an undeniable force in her tone.
She just couldn’t understand how the Xiao Family could be so desperate for men that they would stoop to stealing another’s husband.
"Who is trying to snatch your husband? We came here today to seek justice for my mother. She meant well, but Tan Zhenghong injured her," Xiao Lingshan quickly retorted. The courtyard gate was closed, but people outside could still hear the noise.
If someone outside overheard this, how could Xiao Biyu ever get married?
Zheng Shi immediately caught on and joined in, "Exactly, I came here with good intentions to visit him, but to my surprise, he attacked me with a bamboo basket. Does he think the Xiao Family has no one to defend it?"
In the village, everyone always treated her with courtesy.
Yet Tan Zhenghong dared to throw a basket at her!
Qiao Duo’er didn’t say a word, simply watching the Xiao Family with a faint smile.
She had seen shameless before, but this level of shamelessness was truly a first for her.
"What are you staring at me for? Ask him, did he or did he not hit me!" Zheng Shi’s confidence wavered.
Qiao Duo’er narrowed her eyes, "So what if he hit you? Isn’t it because you deserved it?"
Her acknowledgment was straightforward, catching the Xiao Family off guard.
Zheng Shi, taken aback, then said, "You from the Fourth Boss’s House shouldn’t be fooled by Tan Zhenghong. He said he wanted to divorce you to marry my Yu’er, but when I refused, he threw a bamboo basket at me."
As long as Qiao Duo’er and Tan Zhenghong weren’t united, there was room to maneuver.
"Don’t daydream, how could my Fourth Boss have such poor taste?" Qiao Duo’er raised an eyebrow.
Besides being pretty, what other qualities did that Xiao Biyu have?
Such a woman, if married into the family, would be nothing but a disaster!
Tan Zhenghong nodded eagerly, "In my eyes, she isn’t even worth one of your fingers. I would never marry her."
With the Xiao Family acting this way, he saw no need to keep up appearances anymore.
"Did you hear that? My Fourth Boss looks down on her, so if you want to pimp someone out, you should find someone else. My Fourth Boss is discerning, but there are many others in the village who would find her desirable," she said.
Zheng Shi, fuming with anger, retorted, "I’ll tear your mouth apart! You wretched woman!"
How had her precious daughter been reduced to such terms in Qiao Duo’er’s mouth?
Zheng Shi’s nails were sharp, and a scratch from her would definitely leave a scar.
Qiao Duo’er felt that her face was already tragic enough; if it were to be marred with claw marks, she might as well not live.
So when Zheng Shi was still some distance away, Qiao Duo’er kicked her away, causing Zheng Shi to lose her balance and fall on her bottom.
"Ow! It hurts so much! I’m going to die, someone from the Fourth Boss’s House is trying to kill me!"
Zheng Shi took advantage of the situation to lie on the ground. Now that Qiao Duo’er had struck her, this conflict was far from over.
Xiao Dazhi immediately said, "You’ve injured my wife; we are taking you to court!"
Qiao Duo’er smiled faintly, should she let herself be taken to court and conveniently vacate her position for Xiao Biyu?
Hmph, nice thinking!
The very next second, Qiao Duo’er had already charged towards the courtyard door, quickly opened it, and then yelled to the people outside, "Everyone come and see, the Xiao Family is bullying others with their power, forcing the Fourth Boss to divorce and remarry!"
If the Xiao Family wasn’t afraid of losing face, then she might as well lend them a hand, right?
