Volume 1 Chapter 22 The Old Man Has Gone Mad

  "Crash!" After Shuai Wenjing's grandfather yelled, he picked up the teacup beside him and smashed it towards Jia Dafu.

  Mr. Jia left with a humiliated expression, this old man has gone mad!

  "Come here! Come here!" Grandfather suddenly shouted again. Two young servants rushed in from outside, they were people beside grandfather.

  "Go now and send her back to the Zhang family."

  Grandfather is furious, it's a family matter, why did that Lord Jia rush here in such a hurry? What does he mean? Send her back to her natal home! Let her natal family take a look, what kind of good daughter the Zhang family has raised!

  Just then, Xie Weng's second uncle rushed back. He happened to hear his father say that he would send his mother back to the Zhang family.

  "Dad, mom has been wronged by that scoundrel and is now back at her parents' home. This will be the death of mom! Dad, think carefully, hasn't mom sacrificed enough for so many years?"

  The mother is heartbroken that her elder sister-in-law takes care of her elder brother, and has always helped her elder sister-in-law manage such a large household. With a mother like hers in the Xie family, who wouldn't say that she is kind and magnanimous?

  Even if there are rumors, Father is worried that Mother can't take the stimulation, so it's better to send Mother to the countryside in Guangling Farm for a while to recover and relax.

  Xie Cheng knew that it would be best for his mother to avoid all the rumors and gossip these days, or else she would be driven to death.

  Looking at Dad's current state, it can be seen that Mom and Dad have been separated for a while, with both advantages and disadvantages.

  A first-class lady can't withstand her father's few slaps? It's better to avoid it, when men encounter such things, they will feel embarrassed, and the unlucky one is naturally the woman.

  "Suit yourself, see what you can do!" Xie Wenjing's grandfather said to his son, who had always been doted on and expected to support the family.

  After grandfather finished speaking angrily, he lifted his leg and left the main hall. The people of the Xie family clan were still waiting for him to explain himself!

  "Let's go, I'm here, don't worry!" Xie Cheng sighed and waved his hand at his sister, sister-in-law, and niece in the house, asking them to leave.

  Xie Wenjing glanced at Wen Ting and San Shu, then retreated obediently. After Xie Chengju and the others had left, she asked her mother: "Mother, is that man really not your son?"

  Xie Cheng heard the rumors from outside and felt that they were credible, making it impossible for him not to have doubts.

  As soon as Xie Chengju asked the question, the old lady lying in bed suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, scaring Xie Chengju so much that he didn't dare ask again.

  "Daughter, don't be agitated, son believes you, son will settle this matter for you and find out the root cause, see who is secretly harming you."

  "I'll send you to Guangling first, avoid it for a while, and wait for this storm to pass. Then I'll pick you up again. As for the Shie family clan, don't worry about it, son will take care of it too. They won't dare not give me face."

  Mrs. Li knew that leaving was inevitable, so she quickly brought the two maids, Dongxue and Qiujie, who were by the old lady's side, to pack up the old lady's clothes, jewelry, and other items, as well as her medicine.

  The old lady opened her mouth to instruct her son a few words, letting her son take Dr. Jia over to examine the illness on the side of the bamboo garden every half month, but when the words reached her lips, she endured and swallowed them again.

  Just now, that dead man slandered himself and Jia Daifu. If he still calls his son to pick up Jia Daifu, he and Jia Daifu will be suspected of something by that dead man. After returning, think carefully about whether to continue raising the ones in the bamboo garden or not?

  As long as his son hasn't passed the imperial examination to become a scholar, he can't let that good-for-nothing die easily. Not only can he use the good-for-nothing's salary to support his son, but also get the good-for-nothing's daughter to do business and earn money. The good-for-nothing's father-in-law runs a rice shop, it won't be bad.

  Wait a bit longer, after a few more months, the son will go to Jinling for the exam. As long as he passes and becomes a scholar, I won't bother with that good-for-nothing family anymore.

  In this way, the old lady was inexplicably sent to a rural farmhouse in Guangling.

  Xie Wenjing let out a small sigh of relief, feeling reborn. The first time she splashed that woman with dirty water was because she had past-life experiences and knew how vicious the thugs in He Tianxiang were. If they framed someone, ordinary people would find it hard to clear their names.

  Those rascals, once they want to swindle someone, will first make some inquiries, and then fabricate a story with sound and color. Several women have died at their hands, all of whom were framed by them. However, this time, they may have kicked an iron plate.

  But all this has nothing to do with me now, I've already gotten the effect I wanted. In the future, as soon as that old woman steps out of the Xie family gate, she'll be pointed at and gossiped about by everyone.

  People are willing to believe in the dirty things behind their backs, so that they can discuss them with relish, just like those people in the past who were extremely vicious in discussing others.

  "Miss, it's all right now! It's that old woman's turn to be half dead!" Du Ma closed the door and was extremely excited.

  "Don't get too excited, what we need to do next is find an opportunity, when no one is paying attention, use a burlap sack to cover up that Officer Jia and hit him with several bricks."

  Let him run to our Xie family again? I'm avenging my grandfather! My grandfather saw that Jia Daifu today and suddenly suspected that Jia Daifu had an affair with my grandmother. He drove Jia Daifu away in front of us, not even allowing him to enter the Xie family gate again.

  "I feel that this is the perfect opportunity, as there are no private relationships between Grandmother and Dr. Jia, but rather a dirty connection. Taking advantage of Grandfather's extreme anger towards Dr. Jia, I'll give him a good beating, making sure he won't be able to get out of bed for a year or so. This will make him deeply fearful of Grandfather and never dare to set foot in our house again. In this way, Father can gain more time to recover his health."

  "Miss. Why don't we take advantage of Old Lady's presence and expose the fact that the doctor she invited, Doctor Jia, is actually the one who harmed Grandfather? Let's report it to the clan and beat him while he's down!"

  The way of knowing and depicting excitement.

  "You think my second uncle is a paper man! The Xie family in Yangzhou still doesn't give face to him, today my grandfather feels that his face has been lost, for the time being he's agitated, after a few days when he comes to his senses, won't that old woman still be holding everything in the Xie family?"

  However, there is a good thing about this matter. With the passing of the grandmother, the one who should take over as the head of the household should be her daughter-in-law. Second Aunt has been eyeing the power of the housekeeper for a long time!

  "I don't know if grandma will come back, and whether she'll fight for the right to be in charge of the household. Let's wait and see, don't rush into anything, take it one step at a time. This way, we can defeat our enemy while keeping them unaware of who is striking against them!"

  Xie Wenjing quietly said her plan, and next it was Jia Daifu's turn. She would personally knock him unconscious to avenge her father.

  As expected, after Grandma left, she handed over the power to manage the household to Second Aunt and also instructed Second Uncle specifically not to skimp on the precious medicinal materials for the main house.

  Second Aunt coldly snorted in her heart, the good-for-nothing eldest son of the main house, if he wants to die, then just die quickly and don't drag down the whole family. She definitely won't provide him with any precious medicine. Can't she keep that money for herself?

  After investigation by Du's mother and others, Xie Wenjing determined the location of the attack on Jia Daifu, which was behind the Li Chunyuan in Yangzhou where he often secretly treated a top courtesan.

  It just so happened that he himself did not want to be discovered by others, giving prostitutes medical treatment. So, under the cover of darkness every day, he would sneak over to give the lead prostitute medical treatment and was discovered by Du's mother.

  That night, while it was still dark, Xie Wenjing and Du's mother quietly went around to the opposite side of Xu Yin's house. At this time, Xu Yin had not yet gotten up. Taking advantage of the darkness and the fact that no one would notice, Xie Wenjing and Du's mother prepared a hemp sack and hid in the alley behind Lichunyuan, waiting for Jia Daifu to appear.
