Chapter 413: Chapter 416: Go in and Move Things!_1
A few members of the Cao Family whispered among themselves for a few moments and quickly reached a consensus.
"You say my sister had an affair, do you have evidence?"
Widow Xu’s sister was the first to speak out.
"Grandma Feng and the doctor both said she miscarried because she was messing around with a man, but I didn’t do anything during those days."
Tan Zhengyuan risked it all; wearing a green hat was a disgrace.
Yet he wanted everyone to know there was a prairie on top of his head, so he wouldn’t have to lift a finger and Widow Xu would be drowned by other people’s spit.
Widow Xu couldn’t care less about her face anymore, "You were the one clinging to me, but it was short, small, and over quickly, like tickling."
The yard went silent for three seconds before a collective gasp was heard.
There were so many people listening, and her own brothers and sisters were present, couldn’t she be more subtle?
Tan Zhengyuan, having his shortcomings exposed, turned red and stammered out nonsense.
Any man couldn’t stand being mocked by his woman about his bedroom performance.
"You’re the one who couldn’t perform yet always teased me. Couldn’t I satisfy myself? How does that become an affair with someone else? And you hit me, causing me to be barren for life, oh heavens, why is my life so miserable?"
Widow Xu simply sat down on the ground and started wailing.
Cao Changping jumped out and said, "My sister is right, hitting someone is unacceptable. Do you think there is no law in this world?"
"Exactly, you heartless man, you’ve made it so my sister can’t have children, how will you compensate?"
The Cao Siblings chimed in one after another, not caring whether she had actually had an affair or not.
They only knew that Widow Xu had been beaten and almost lost her life.
Xu Changgeng helped Widow Xu to her feet and asked caringly, "What do you want to do?"
"Brother, I now have lingering health issues, I want him to pay for my medical expenses and return my land to me. Brother, you must stand up for me, otherwise, I can’t go on living!"
"They say ’catch a thief with the stolen goods, catch adulterers together’; you’re baselessly smearing my sister with empty accusations. We’ll handle this as my sister suggests."
Xu Changgeng had a naturally loud voice, and paired with his rugged appearance, he was quite intimidating.
Tan Zhengyuan swallowed and braced himself as he said, "Dream on, you’ll get nothing!"
"Then we’ll just have to go in and search."
As Cao Changping spoke, he moved towards the eastern wing.
"I’ll see who dares!" Wang Clan blocked their way with her hands on her hips.
The two Cao sisters casually moved Wang Clan aside, and everyone else entered the eastern wing.
Tan Zhengyuan also wanted to go in to stop them but was held back by Xu Changgeng.
Those inside turned the room upside down, taking anything that could be converted into money and getting ready to take it all away.
"Can we leave now?" Tan Zhenghong asked, furrowing his brows.
"I apologize for the misunderstanding. Truly sorry," Xu Changgeng bowed.
Tan Zhenghong said indifferently, "As long as the matter is clear, that’s good. But everyone knows what is really going on, it’s best to leave it at that."
"Tan Zhengyuan hit my sister and took her property. As her brother, I can’t let my sister be bullied."
Xu Changgeng made his stance clear; his sister was no saint either, and if they pushed the matter, they wouldn’t gain much.
Tan Zhenghong nodded, as long as the Cao Family wasn’t excessive, he wouldn’t interfere.
Because someone like his elder brother deserved to be taught a lesson.
Anxious, Tan Zhengyuan exclaimed, "Fourth Boss, have you lost your mind? You’re my brother, how can you side with outsiders?"
"I’ve long since cut ties with the Tan Family; I have no brother like you!"
