Chapter 149 - 149 Charged at Them with a Knife



Just like the original Zhao Chuchu, Zhao Meilan was a lady who was bullied a lot.

The only fortunate thing Zhao Meilan had over the original Zhao Chuchu was that the former had loving parents while the latter didn’t.

“Chuchu, to be honest, our family’s finance had always been the same. It’s not that we don’t want to fight back, it’s just that we didn’t have the courage to do so. If we fought back, we would have nowhere to go. But everything is different now. Even without them, we can still lead a good life.”

“Being able to have such a mindset is an amazing thing. That’s why you should let your dad express all his anger and frustration this time, or else, they would keep treating your dad as if he is a weak man. They won’t be able to keep their arrogance up anyway. They’re dead meat for doing that to the master of the Hu clan.”

“A-are we in trouble too?”

“No. They aren’t the type to blame the innocent. You don’t have to worry about it.”

After saying that, Zhao Chuchu turned her attention to the outside. Old Madam Ma had started to yell once again.

“You heartless bastard! Just kill me instead. What’s the point of living? God, why is my son rebelling against me?” Old Madam Ma sat on the floor. “Look at him. He’s tricked by his wife and he’s abandoning his own mother. I’d rather die than suffer such humiliation!”

She just kept on shouting before turning her attention to Madam He, yelling all sorts of curses at her daughter-in-law. Even after a few minutes, she had yet to repeat a single curse that she had said before.

Zhao Chuchu was actually amazed by that feat.

Old Madam Ma had pretty much belittled Madam He’s entire family when she was done.

In the end, Madam He could not hold her anger in any longer too. “Stop yelling! If you want to do, then feel free to do so. I don’t mind dragging you down with me. All these years, all you’ve done were either curse at me or hit me. You kept bullying our Meilan too. You even tried to sell her. Do you think I’m still afraid of you now that we aren’t part of the Zhao clan anymore? I’ll kill all of you before killing myself once I have Guitang divorce me. Meilan can live without us now, so there’s nothing to lose anymore! Come!”

Everyone could hear the desperation in Madam He’s voice.

That was Madam He’s first time fighting back and it astonished Old Madam Ma a lot.

In the end, the old lady was the type who always bullied the weak while cowering to the strong.

“Just like you said, my life is worthless. It wouldn’t be that bad to drag all of you down to hell with me then. Let me warn you. Both of us are willing to do anything for our Meilan. Try me if you don’t believe me!” Madam He continued to roar.

“Y-you bitch! Guitang, are you going to let your wife curse your mother like this? Do something.” Old Madam Ma got even angrier after being challenged by her daughter-in-law.

Yet, the old lady did not expect a cold response from her son. “You guys are the ones who forced her. If the worst comes to the worst, we can just find Meilan a husband and we’ll drag all of you to hell with us. Our lives aren’t worth anything anyway!”

Zhao Guitang’s eyes had already turned completely red from anger. It was as if he would actually try and kill them.

Madam Zhu hid behind Old Madam Ma and added fuel to the fire. “Mom, look at them! Guitang, what is that attitude of yours? She’s your mother. How can you betray your family like this? Mom, you better show them their place, or they’ll get even worse once you grow older.”

The woman’s words were able to make the old lady even angrier. The latter charged forward and tried to slap Madam He. “Bitch, since your mother failed to teach you your manners, I’ll help her instead. You should always respect your elders. Do you think this is the He clan?”

A loud slap echoed throughout the room.

And another quickly followed after that.

Old Madam Ma held her face as she was completely dumbfounded.

Even Zhao Chuchu was slightly surprised by the outcome.

Madam He was trembling. She was the one who had just slapped the old lady.

Before Old Madam Ma could even react, Madam He charged into the kitchen and came back outside with a knife. “Come. I’ll kill all of you!” she roared.

“Ahh, help!”

Both Old Madam Ma and Madam Zhu screamed as their hearts skipped a beat. They quickly turned and ran.

Although it looked as if Madam He was aimlessly waving the knife around, if one were to look closely, she was just trying to scare the uninvited guests.

Old Madam Ma did not expect that her daughter-in-law would actually resort to killing once she was pushed past the breaking point.

The old lady was a very timid person. Naturally, she was afraid of getting killed as well.

Madam Zhu was the same.

The two of them immediately dashed out of the house.

“Wait here. The both of you are dead!” the old lady even shouted as she left.

The moment the uninvited guests were gone, Madam He lost the strength in her legs and fell onto the floor.

She had just done something that she had never thought she would ever do.

She had just threatened her mother-in-law with a knife.

It was something understandable as she was forced into a corner by them. She had already lost her reasoning and all she could think of was to chase them out.

Now, she couldn’t even look at her husband in his eyes.

Zhao Meilan ran out of the kitchen and helped her mother up. “Mom, are you alright?”

“I’m fine…” Madam He sounded exhausted. “Guitang, the divorce… I’m okay with it…”

After saying that, she felt as if her soul had already left her.

“What nonsense are you talking about? Why would I even divorce you?” Zhao Guitang approached his wife with the help of his walking cane. “I’m sorry for putting you in such a position. Don’t worry. I will never divorce you. They can do whatever they want. It wouldn’t matter to us.”

The man had decided that they would just have to endure it until his legs were healed. They would still be able to live on even if they stopped selling tofus.

“But I…”

“Shh… You don’t have to say anything. We should all be together supporting each other at a time like this.”

Tears filled the wife’s eyes.

“Mom… Dad…” Zhao Meilan sniffed.

All three of them hugged and cried.

Zhao Chuchu was left in the kitchen and in an awkward situation. She had no idea what she should do.

On the other hand, Madam Zhou came out of the room.

“Don’t worry. They won’t be able to do anything to your family.”

...

“Mrs. Hu, I’m sorry for showing such a sight…”

“You don’t need to explain anything. I’ve heard everything. If they really try to report you to the officials, I’ll back you up. I’ll just tell them that they tried to kill my husband and you were just trying to stop them.”

Madam Zhou was still furious. She still had yet to settle the score with Old Madam Ma.

“Y-you’ll help us?”

“Of course. Don’t worry. The Hu clan will be here soon. Once they arrive, the Zhao clan won’t be able to do anything to us. They’ll be in such deep trouble that they don’t even have the time to mess with you.”

Madam Zhou assured them that the Hu clan wouldn’t blame Zhao Guitang and his family for the incidents.

Zhao Guitang let out a sigh of relief after hearing that.

However, he felt bad as he knew what would happen to his mother soon.

Yet, he wasn’t able to plead for her mother and brothers. She was the one who was in the wrong. Even as her son, he still knew what was right or wrong.

Unfortunately, Old Madam Ma returned faster than they thought she would.

This time, she came with the head of the Zhao clan.

...

“Look, she tried to kill me with a knife. Zhao Guitang even chased me out of his home. We can’t let others know about this. If they found out, no one would want to marry the sons and daughters of the Zhao clan in the future!”
