Translator: 549690339
Sun Family’s woman and Qiao ipan suddenly struggled more violently, writhing back and forth on the Donkey Cart like two worms.
Upon seeing this, Sun Junyan, too, disregarded his verbal dispute with Qiao Xiaomai, hastily took a few steps, and untied the ropes for them.
The Sun Family’s woman and Qiao ipan, having gained their freedom, dared not to wail any longer. No matter how disheveled their hair and clothes were, they swiftly got off the Donkey Cart and jogged towards the crowd of the Qiao family.
It was terrifying, too terrifying!
They were rely ordinary common folks. When had they ever been treated like this? Being so close to the Yan, it was too terrifying!
The overbearing authority of Tong Tiehu was terrifying!
Any considerations for face or pride, at this mont, they couldn’t recall any of it, they even forgot their anger and annoyance. The only thought in their minds was to hide!
To hide far away!
“Stop.” Tong Tiehu said coldly.
The footsteps of the two won imdiately froze.
“After making a ss in soone else’s Courtyard, you thought you could just leave?”
“No, no, no, I’ll clean it up myself, thank you for your kindness, Master Tong.” Qiao Xiaomai quickly interjected. If these two lay their hands on it, she would worry they’d make her family’s Courtyard dirtier.
“Well, we can’t simply let them off cheaply,” Tong Tiehu furrowed.
“Let it be, let it be, they are my elders,” Qiao Xiaomai shook her head.
Tong Tiehu glanced at her, “Are you really going to let it go?”
“Yes, I won’t hold it against them. My dad and I are both filial people.”
Tong Tiehu sighed deeply, and turned to Qiao Qinghe, who had been standing quietly at the gate, “Qinghe, as the head of the household, if you don’t toughen up, your entire family will fall into disarray.”
Upon hearing these words, Qiao Qinghe felt sha, “Yes.”
Tong Tiehu shook his head, and gestured for the onlooking crowd to disperse, “Let’s disperse, the show’s over, but you should all have a clear understanding now, right?”
“Yes, yes, yes.” Yang Guilan promptly nodded.
Li Chunhua also nodded continuously. They all understood Tong Tiehu’s aning.
“Let’s disperse.” Tong Tiehu waved his hand in satisfaction.
Then, the onlooking crowd each returned to their hos.
The third son of Tong led the Donkey Cart back to Qiao Xiaomai’s house, tied back the donkey to the stable, parked the cart against the wall, and then walked out.
“Grandpa, can we go ho now?”
“Wait, I also want to ask Master Tong and the third son of Tong to be witnesses,” Qiao Xiaomai hurriedly said. But while she said this, she didn’t look at the third son of Tong. The words Qiao ipan used to scold her were also ntioned when Yang Guilan was recounting the incident.
The innocent third son of Tong was dragged into the matter again, which deepened her embarrassnt towards him. At this mont, she was too embarrassed to look at him.
But the third son of Tong was looking at her straightforwardly, asking, “What kind of witness?”
“From now on, my family will only give fifty wen per month (wen is a unit of Chinese money) for respecting grandpa and grandma. As for the fifty wen for the studies of the fifth uncle, my family will not pay it anymore. As Master Tong said earlier, even in the presence of human and physical evidence, the fifth uncle can still distort right and wrong, black and white, 1 really can’t believe that he will protect our family in the future if he becos an official.”
“The fifth uncle takes us for fools just because he has read so books. The past was the past because we are a family, and there are always tis when clouds part to reveal the moon. However, the actions of the fifth uncle today really chilled our hearts.”
“I don’t want to give this fifty wen. As for the wen given in the past, 1 will erase them altogether. I don’t expect the fifth uncle to repay it, I just hope he will leave our family alone from now on.”
“Master Tong, you were present when the family was divided and this rule was established. Today, you are also here. Will you agree to my idea?”
Trouble today was entirely brewed up by Sun Junyan. She must settle the score with him right here and now..
