The Chief Minister's Ferocious Wife

152 How Clever And Cruel

Zhao Chuchu stopped and looked back.

Old Madam Ma was overjoyed and thought Zhao Chuchu was trying to help her.

Old Madam Ma hurriedly said, “Chuchu, please, I promise you that I will definitely treat you as my biological granddaughter from now on. Please help me.”

Mrs. Hu did not say anything. Instead, she just looked at Zhao Chuchu.

The gaze of Mrs. Hu was really cold, making anyone present tremble.

But Zhao Chuchu was unmoved. She just looked at Old Madam Ma and sneered, “I was your savior, but have you listened to my words? You even sent people to rob me. Well, well, well. When you said those words, didn’t you feel ashamed?”

Old Madam Ma said, “Chuchu, I realize I was wrong. Please help us.”

Zhao Chuchu replied calmly, “I remember I said more than once that people of the Zhao family should not be so arrogant in front of me, and in that case, I won’t do anything to you. But if you anger me, then don’t blame me for being rude. Well, do you want to live in hell?”

Old Madam Ma was out of breath at that moment.

Zhao Chuchu looked at Mrs. Hu and said, “They are the ones who are evil. Zhao Guitang has nothing to do with this. Every debt has its debtor. You are a person who knows right from wrong. If it were not for their family, your son would have been killed.”

“Don’t worry, girl. Although I am old, I am not confused. I will not blame innocent people.”

“I think so.”

Zhao Chuchu smiled at Mrs. Hu and walked out of Zhao Guitang’s home with Xie Heng.

However, the two of them met Zhao Meijuan, who brought a group of people.

Zhao Chuchu saw at a glance that Zhao Meijuan was pregnant.

No wonder Zhao Meilan was forced to marry Hu Yiming. Zhao Chuchu was right about it.

Zhao Meijuan was accompanied by a 17-or-18-year-old man with a thin, ungrateful face.

When the young man raised his head and looked at Zhao Chuchu, he suddenly froze.

Xie Heng’s eyes were slightly cold. He just stared at the young man in front of them.

Young Master He looked back at Xie Heng in displeasure.

Zhao Meijuan was surprised. She said to Xie Heng, “Xie Heng, have your eyes really been cured?”

She had lived in the town since dating Young Master He, and they rarely returned to the village.

If her brother hadn’t hurried to the town today to tell her that there was an accident at home, she wouldn’t have returned.

Xie Heng chose to ignore Zhao Meijuan.

“Xie Heng, I’m talking to you. Are you deaf?” Zhao Meijuan said angrily.

Since Zhao Meijuan was pregnant, Young Master He had to obey her. How dare Xie Heng, who was just a poor scholar, ignore her?

Xie Heng said calmly, “I have good ears, but I don’t want to listen to you talking nonsense. If you come later, I’m afraid you will have to collect their bodies.”

“What?”

Zhao Meijuan’s face was livid with anger, but she clearly heard Old Madam Ma’s pleas for mercy.

Zhao Meijuan had no time to talk to Zhao Chuchu and Xie Heng again. She went to Zhao Guitang’s house with Young Master He.

When passing Zhao Chuchu, Young Master He kept staring at Zhao Chuchu.

Zhao Chuchu flicked her finger quietly, and a bead of water quietly attached to the crotch of Young Master He.

“Da Lang, you go back first. I want to see the excitement.” Zhao Chuchu did not want to go back so soon. It would not make any difference if they went back early or late.

Xie Heng remembered how Young Master He had been staring at Zhao Chuchu earlier.

“I will accompany you.”

Zhao Chuchu glanced sideways at Xie Heng.

She knew that Xie Heng did not like this kind of scene.

However, Zhao Chuchu had no time to think about that. Instead of going into Zhao Guitang’s house, Zhao Chuchu went to a place where no one could see her.

“Who dares to touch my family!” shouted Zhao Meijuan as soon as she entered the door.

“Meijuan, you’re finally back. Please help us. They broke our legs.” When Old Madam Ma saw Zhao Meijuan, she thought that Zhao Meijuan might be helpful.

Zhao Meijuan was furious and pointed at Mrs. Hu. “Did you ask them to beat my family? Get down on your knees and kowtow to admit your mistake. Only then will I consider letting you go! Otherwise, I’ll make you regret coming here.”

Mrs. Hu looked at Zhao Meijuan steadily.

Zhao Meijuan was Hu Yiming’s fiancée. Therefore, Mrs. Hu had met her before.

Now, Zhao Meijuan seemed to fear nothing with Young Master by her side, which made Mrs. Hu very unhappy.

Mrs. Hu had sharp eyes and knew that the young man beside Zhao Meijuan had a fairly powerful background.

Zhao Meijuan felt kind of frightful when being stared at by Mrs. Hu.

She then pointed at the three members of the Zhao Guitang family and said, “Uncle, you are really good. You are no different from an animal when you see your mother and brother being beaten without stopping those guys!”

After a pause, Zhao Meijuan turned to act coquettish with Young Master He. “Young Master He, you can see how arrogant these people are here. They even look down on you.”

Young Master He was thinking of Zhao Chuchu, and he didn’t care who else was in the yard.

He then said, “We have brought people here. If they aren’t obedient, beat them hard until they are. I will take responsibility if something happens.”

Zhao Meijuan was overjoyed. She looked at Mrs. Hu and said, “Old bigoted woman, you hear that? If you don’t want to die, kneel and apologize. Give us 1,000 taels of silver, and withdraw the engagement.”

Old Madam Ma also knew what to do now. She glared at Mrs. Hu fiercely and said, “Old bastard, I’ll also break your legs later.”

Mrs. Hu sneered with disdain. “So, are you their backer?”

Hearing this, Young Master He looked over. The next moment, he felt as if he had been struck by lightning. He looked really shocked and then said, in a trembling voice, “Mrs. Hu, why are you here?”

...

Zhao Meijuan and her family thought they had heard something wrong.

Young Master He carefully apologized, “I didn’t know that it was you. It was my fault. I was thinking of something else and have offended you. I’ll apologize to you now. Please don’t blame me.”

“Don’t you want your men to beat us until we are obedient?”

“Please stop joking, Mrs. Hu. How dare we? I don’t know what happened, but I am right here if you need me.”

Zhao Meijuan felt like she had fallen into an ice cellar. She was terrified.

Young Master He did not know the origin of the obedient Hu family.

Young Master He was also furious about the fact that Zhao Meijuan didn’t say that her fiancé was Hu Yiming.

There was also a fool whose surname was Hu in Yongfu Town. Young Master He subconsciously thought that that was Zhao Meijuan’s fiancé. He didn’t ask Zhao Meijuan much about it after Zhao Meijuan had slept with him.

Now he knew that Zhao Meijuan’s fiancé was Hu Yiming!

When Young Master He was thinking about that, he began sweating. He hoped that the people of the Hu family would not blame him.

Mrs. Hu said, “These people nearly killed my son, Hu Yiming. Since Young Master He wants to help me now, I want you to order your men to break their hands.”

...

Zhao Chuchu secretly exclaimed. How clever and cruel it was!
