Chapter 334: Shameless and Obvious!

ress her excitement and said, “In that case, Li's wife is truly wise. With many wives and concubines in the family, people's hearts become chaotic, and life naturally becomes bumpy.” 。"I hope my daugh...Two women who had been kicked down the stairs, were clutching their stomachs and screaming incessantly.

"They killed someone, the Li family killed someone!"

"Harboring escaped slaves and even killing people, there is truly no law left!"

Uncle Zhao and the others were so angry their noses almost turned crooked. It was broad daylight, and they were twisting black and white! They weren't even afraid of being struck by lightning!

The old woman remained silent, but this moment gave the spiteful woman a knowing look.

The shrewish woman immediately shouted, "Cheng Huiniang on the steps, is a runaway slave from our Yan family! Today we are here to bring her back. Your Li family must be harboring her and refusing to release her, aren't you"

Before the Li family could speak, she shouted to the maidservants and ordered them, "Smash it! Let these ignorant, lowly people know that our Yan family is not to be trifled with. They dare to harbor our Yan family's runaway slaves, they should know what consequences await them!"

Those maidservants immediately picked up the sticks in their hands and scattered to break them apart.

What small earthenware pots for holding water, wooden buckets for drawing water, little shrines in the corners, and kitchen utensils were all smashed to pieces in an instant.

Seeing Grandma's freshly pickled garlic eggplant scattered all over the ground, Jia Yin was enraged, her eyes turning red. She didn't even think of protecting herself, rushing out from behind the gate and lunging at that wicked old woman to tear her apart.

The midwife was startled and reached back to hit her with a stick.

Winter Plum charged forward like the wind, blocking Jiayin's path. She took a blow for her, grunting in pain as she endured it. She gritted her teeth, turned around and kicked the midwife back with her foot before running back up the steps.

The old woman was so angry she wanted to slap her granddaughter twice, "What are you messing around with! Hide quickly!"

"Sobbing, Grandma just pickled eggplant with garlic, Father loves it!" Jiayin wanted to say she didn't want to give any up, but as soon as she opened her mouth, tears welled up and wouldn't stop flowing.

She hugged Dongmei and cried out, "Aunt, are you hurt I want to kill them, kill them all!"

Winter Plum didn't take it seriously and comforted the little girl, "Don't be afraid, Funiu. Auntie doesn't hurt at all!"

But Li Laotai knew her granddaughter wasn't joking. She was afraid her granddaughter would reveal those magical abilities, so she quickly took the little girl and scolded, "There are adults in our family, you're just a child, don't meddle in anything!"

Jia Yin tightly hugged her grandmother's neck, a volcano of hatred burning in her heart, as scorching as lava!

Although Mingming's family was wealthy and well-off, all of a sudden everything was ruined!

The grinding stone she often climbed on was covered in spilled rice, soy sauce, and grime.

The wildflowers dug for her by her brothers from the mountain, were crushed into fine pieces.

The sun-dried bedding was tossed on the ground, trampled with footprints.

My mother's favorite porcelain dish, shattered into pieces, can never be put back together again!

Her home, everything she loved, was destroyed!

The old woman certainly felt sorry for him, but her granddaughter was more important than anything else.

Don't even say that the Li family still has the energy to fight with the Yan family. Even if they didn't, they would rather swallow their anger than let their granddaughter be exposed.

Zhao Shu a few were indignant, wanted to rush over to stop, also was stopped by the old woman.

"First, protect Lady Hui! Don't let them harm her, nothing else matters! Today they broke something, tomorrow we'll have them restore it back to the way it was, not even a bit different! Otherwise, our Li family will file a complaint with the court and let the Yan family know what regret is!"

Upon hearing this, Madam Yen's expression finally shifted.

She scrutinized Li Laotai for a long time, then raised her hand.

Upon seeing this, the maidservant of the strict household stopped and regrouped behind their mistress.

Madam Yen spoke first, "Isn't that the eldest daughter of the Li family across the way I heard that after my wayward son left home, he often received your Li family's care. I've always wanted to meet you, Madam, and thank you properly."

Li Laotai sneered, pointing to the mess in the courtyard, “Our Li family is a small and humble household with limited vision. We don't know that families like the Yens, with their prestigious literary heritage, have such rules. Are we grateful that they're coming to our door And please don't call me your older sister, I'm not worthy of it! I'm certainly not a sister who has dogs commit acts of violence!”

"Who are you calling a dog!"

The shrewish woman was still ranting when Madam Shen waved her hand to silence her. “My second daughter-in-law is impulsive and eager to catch the runaway slaves, so she lost her composure for a moment. It’s understandable. They are just some small items; I’ll give you a few ounces of silver later, and you can buy new ones.”

She paused, then pointed at Hui-niang again, her eyes filled with hatred, "But we must bring this runaway back today! This lowly servant used beguiling means to entice my young son away from home, causing our Yan family endless turmoil. Now she's secretly carrying the bloodline of our Yan family, without bringing her back to deal with, our Yan family will never have peace!"

Hui Niang, filled with shame and anger, retorted loudly, "You are lying! I am your lawfully wedded wife!"

Yet, Old Madam Yen took out a deed from her sleeve, “This is the deed you signed selling yourself!”

All the Li family members changed their faces. With a deed of sale, they were slaves. If the Yan family insisted on taking Hui'er away, the Li family would truly have no reason to stop them.

You're completely in the wrong!

Huiniang leaned almost her entire body against the pillar to keep from falling.

She gritted her teeth and argued, "When my husband brought me into the Yan family, you told me not to worry him. Just sign the bond of servitude, and I would be a member of the Yan family. After giving birth to my husband's eldest son, we would live happily ever after. But once I signed, you immediately seized me and drugged me, claiming I was a servant girl who climbed into my husband's bed and violated the family law! "

"You are a bunch of vipers! You deceived me first, and then harmed my child! But you didn't expect it, did you My registered name is Huiniang, which means 'wisdom'. Because I loved herbs since childhood, people at home called me Huì, the one who understands plants. That contract, even if I signed it, wasn't under my real name. I am not a servant of the Yan family, you have no right to take me back!"

The Yan family's faces finally changed, Madam Yan's expression was almost terrifying, "You wretch, you actually dare to deceive me!"

The Li family all breathed a sigh of relief.

The second madam of the Yan family had been unable to conceive for many years. Now, looking at Huiniang's big belly, she found it unbearable. She cried out, "Mother, this wretch is too hateful! What are we waiting for Grab her and drag her back. Third Brother would definitely return home because of her pregnancy!"

Having said that, she cursed at the maids and rushed forward to grab him.

Uncle Zhao and the others were all disabled veterans, some missing an arm and some a leg. Even if they were fierce, there was a limit.

The old woman wanted to protect her granddaughter and block Huiniang, so she couldn't possibly step aside.

There was only one Dong Mei who could hold them off, but two fists couldn't fight four hands. For a moment, danger surrounded them from all sides, and the crowd was forced back by the relentless hags of the Yan family.

The old woman pushed Hui Niang and Jia Yin into the main hall, slamming the door shut.

Jiao Yin was so worried that she couldn't stand it. Fearing her grandmother would be beaten, she pressed herself against the door crack and peered out. The stones in the space were already floating up, ready to fall into the courtyard at any moment.

She wished she could smash all the members of the Yan family, their brains splattering, bones breaking, tendons snapping!

Fortunately, Li Lao'er finally arrived at this time.

As soon as he stepped into the courtyard, he saw this and immediately bent down to draw a dagger from his boot, charging towards the most elaborately dressed Lady Yan, the eldest wife.

Mrs. Yan wasn't expecting anyone to be behind her, and caught off guard, she was pulled by the hair to the side, then a sharp blade slashed across her neck.

Pain accompanied by a gush of blood, she cried out in alarm.

The members of the Yan family were terrified, wanting to step forward but too afraid. They could only shout harshly, "Elder Madam! Quickly let go of our Elder Madam!"

"Bold! Who are you, put down your sword!"

That slightly plump woman, the mistress of the嚴 family, finally panicked and stepped forward to say: "Everything is a misunderstanding. Please release my mother first, and everything can be discussed!"

"Don't talk nonsense! You bunch of hoodlums are bullying my mother and vandalizing my house. What misunderstanding Are you blind!"

Li Lao'er was truly insane. The dagger in his hand slashed fiercely at Mrs. Yan's neck, causing her to cry out in pain.owly lowered his head, and suddenly two words popped into his mind.In the prime of youth, endowed with grace and beauty..."Brother, I'm going to go see Grandpa Zhang. It's so cold in the yard, why don...
