Chapter 178 - 178 Nothing to Do With Da Lang



How could Zhao Chuchu not know?

This old woman wanted to teach Zhao Chuchu a lesson the moment she walked through the door.

There was no need to be nice to such snobbish relatives.

But Xie Heng was a scholar, and a scholar’s reputation was important, so Zhao Chuchu planned to wait it out first.

The old woman outside snorted coldly. “Da Lang, if you are not good at teaching her discipline, let grandmother help you. You are the head of the family, and housework is supposed to be done by women. If she doesn’t do it, you can divorce her! Grandma will decide for you and find you a good marriage!”

“Da Lang, do you remember your cousin? She’s always talking about you! Today, if I hadn’t insisted that she focus on her textile work, she would have come to see you as well.” Xie Heng’s aunt covered her mouth and laughed lightly. “She’s much better than that kinky Zhao Chuchu.”

Zhao Chuchu was rendered speechless.

One should never talk about another’s parents. These people were genuinely annoying.

“Be careful what you say! Chuchu’s parents’ death has nothing to do with her at all. How can you be so malicious towards Chuchu, who is also a woman, Auntie?” Xie Heng said in a deep voice. “Also, the Kong family has no right to dictate the affairs of the Xie family!”

“Da Lang, I am doing this for your own good!” the old woman said sharply.

“Are you sure it’s for my own good and not yours?” Xie Heng looked at the old woman. His gaze was as cold as ice.

Under Xie Heng’s gaze, the old woman actually had a terrible feeling of her thought being seen through.

“What nonsense are you talking about? We came over today to see if your eyes have fully recovered or not!” The old woman’s eyes drifted about, not daring to look directly at Xie Heng. “You are my grandson. As your grandmother, isn’t it normal for me to care about you?”

“Where were you when I was blind? It’s been almost three years. Can’t grandmother take a little time to see me?” Xie Heng’s expression remained calm, but his tone was indescribably cynical.

The old woman’s heart skipped a beat.

She was no match for Xie Heng in terms of words, so she took on the stance of an elder. “Grandma also has her own business to attend to. Since your life is not in danger, it’s the same no matter when grandma comes to see you. You used to be very obedient and docile. How come you now contradict your elders after you got married?”

“Did that Zhao Chuchu instigate you? If that’s the case, I have to teach her a good lesson today so that she won’t become more aggressive in the future and bring you trouble.”

“Da Lang, listen to your grandmother. With your status now, Zhao Chuchu is not worthy of you, so for the sake of the past, take her as a concubine and then marry your cousin as your wife!”

“Yes, Da Lang, your cousin is the most knowledgeable and polite, and you’re the only person she thinks about. We have always taught her the requirements of your grandmother. She’s the most suitable person for you to marry,” said the first aunt.

Xie Heng’s second aunt also followed and advised. “Da Lang, the task of an intellectual person is to study well. Look at what Zhao Chuchu has asked you to do. You have to marry a wife who doesn’t need you to worry about household chores. I think your cousin is perfect.”

First uncle nodded. “I’ve always planned on allowing your cousin to marry you. You can’t let her down!”

Second uncle said, “As for Zhao Chuchu, just give her a few taels of silver and send her away. She looks like a restless person. How can she still stay in the Xie family?”

These five people took turns between themselves and had already helped Xie Heng to arrange his future for him.

Xie Jun was so angry when he heard those words. “Do these people know no shame? They haven’t come once since my brother became blind, but they come and made the elder talk so that they could arrange my brother’s future for him?”

“Don’t be angry. Listen to what your brother has to say.” Zhao Chuchu turned around and comforted Xie Jun.

Xie Jun pouted his lips. “Chuchu, are you not angry? They want to kick you out of the house!”

“There’s nothing they could do if your brother disagrees. This is Lengshui Village. We’re on the Xie family’s turf.” Zhao Chuchu stroked his head.

Xie Heng’s voice was still calm as ever. “You guys are forcing me like this. Are you wanting me to tell others how you guys became scholars?”

Those five people’s faces suddenly changed drastically when these words came out.

“Elders also need to put themselves in the right position. Don’t be so nosy and stick your nose into things that are none of your business!”

“You, what did you say?”

“Da Lang, words cannot be said nonsense!”

“We did not do …”

“Did you do it? You guys know better than me, grandmother, don’t you?”

Xie Heng was standing there, still holding the dishes to be washed in his hands, looking harmless, but giving them an invisible sense of oppression.

“Da Lang, stop talking nonsense, I…”

“Grandmother, you shouldn’t stick your nose into other people’s business either.”

The old woman was so angry that her face turned pale.

However, everything that Xie Heng had said was true.

When exactly did Xie Heng know about the truth?

Xie Heng didn’t look like he was joking around, either.

If things really got out…

The old woman did not dare think about what would happen next.

Xie Heng turned around and went into the kitchen.

The old woman thought about it and walked towards the hall room in big strides.

Zhao Chuchu still maintained a lazy position while leaning on the chair.

When the old woman came in and saw it, she immediately pointed at Zhao Chuchu and cursed, “If a woman has reached this level, you might as well die! You’re a lazy bone. How can you be qualified to marry Da Lang?”

Zhao Chuchu slowly got up and looked at the furious old woman.

Threatened by Xie Heng, she had no place to vent her anger, so she decided to make things difficult for Zhao Chuchu.

“I was wondering what kind of woman Da Lang was protecting, but it turns out to be a woman like you. Back then, you tried to marry Da Lang because he was a scholar. Let me tell you. It was my daughter that Da Lang was supposed to marry!”

“If you know what’s good for you, pack your things and get out of here, don’t wait for the letter of divorce to be given to you. Things would get ugly by then!”

The three women were on the same side and were not polite to Zhao Chuchu at all, as if this was the Kong family’s territory and not the Xie family’s.

Zhao Chuchu smiled. “When I married Da Lang, Da Lang was still blind and couldn’t see. Why didn’t your family ever show up during that time? It’s been a year since we married, and you’re just now showing up, and you’re still trying to force me to leave!”

...

“I want to ask, is it your family’s style to specialize in stealing men from others? Since your daughter is marrying Da Lang, why didn’t you mention this before we married? Oh, isn’t it because you were afraid that Da Lang, the blind man, would take advantage of you?”

“Now that his eyes have healed and he is on track to pass the Imperial Examination, you came running over to him, right? Tsk, you are not blushing. I am ashamed of you. You want to take all the good things. Who do you think you are? Even if I am not capable of doing anything, I have at least cured Xie Heng’s eyes.”

“What about you? What have you done? Are you just here to see what benefits you can get from him? Let me guess. You came here not only because Da Lang’s eyes got better but also for the tofu recipe, right? Unfortunately, they are all mine and have nothing to do with Da Lang!”
