Capítulo 1798: Chapter 1787: The Official’s Madam and the Demoness
Following that, Yang’s wife felt a sudden pain in her chest. She looked up to see a delicate foot lightly resting on her chest, appearing as if a re shift could remove it.
Yet, Yang’s wife, being the one stepped on, intensely felt the pressure; no matter how hard she struggled, she couldn’t move an inch.
To outsiders, this scene was oddly humorous.
Yang’s wife, who just monts ago had fiercely overpowered a dozen maids and old won with all her might, now lay flat on the ground, with the dainty foot of the Magistrate’s Lady pressing down on her chest, like a flipped turtle, flailing her limbs but unable to rise, her hair bun askew and golden hairpins scattered on the floor, yet couldn’t turn over.
Gradually, the hearts of the previously terrified and fearful won began to calm, and they slowly stood up.
So of the braver ones couldn’t help but chuckle.
This laughter sounded especially harsh to Yang’s wife, making her flush with anger. Since she couldn’t break free, she decided to speak, “If you have the guts, let go and we’ll have a fair fight. What’s so heroic about stepping on like this?”
Wang Yongzhu looked down leisurely at Yang’s wife, “I’m pressing you down with my ability; why should I let you go? If you’re capable, get up yourself. Do you think I’m stupid?”
Yang’s wife was brimming with countless curse words, but as soon as she opened her mouth, “You bitch—” before she could finish, a “crack” sound was heard, followed by excruciating chest pain that left her speechless.
Only then did Wang Yongzhu exclaid with surprise and apology, “Oh, I’m sorry, got a bit excited and couldn’t control my strength, broke your rib. Yang’s wife, are you alright? I an, if you’d just spoken nicely to , I wouldn’t have gotten excited, I wouldn’t have broken your bones then! Yang’s wife, does it hurt now?”
Yang’s wife wanted to vomit blood! She really felt like replying, see if you feel pain having two ribs broken underfoot?
Although the pain left her speechless, her eyes truthfully conveyed her anger.
Wang Yongzhu grinned, “Good, it hurts! Good! I was afraid it didn’t hurt and thought about breaking a leg too—”
These words made Yang’s wife’s every hair stand on end! She looked at Wang Yongzhu in terror, this was no pampered official’s madam, but a female demon!
The other won, hearing Wang Yongzhu’s words, also couldn’t help but take a step back, and their gazes at Wang Yongzhu changed.
Lady Qu and Lady Chen couldn’t help but shiver, rembering that this Magistrate’s Lady had once made a na for herself in the battle at the Yuan Family, but in recent years, she had been doing business and cultivating wheat seeds, mostly appearing in public for charity or at banquets, always gentle and dignified, making everyone forget her past fierceness.
Just as they recalled, they heard Wang Yongzhu say coldly, “It seems I’ve been busy with my own affairs and appearing less in public these years, so everyone has forgotten my capabilities! Tonight’s grand feast here, organized by the County Yan, with contributions from all the families present, was ant for us all to gather and celebrate the New Year!”
“Unbelievably, there are still those with malicious intent causing trouble today, trying to nullify the efforts of our Chicheng County folks and everyone present! Although I’ve cultivated my character and maintained peace these past two years, I absolutely can’t tolerate these petty, sneaky actions! If it didn’t happen in my presence, I could let it slide, but since it landed in my hands today, I won’t forgive—”
These words made the officials’ wives and scholar families’ won present continually nod.
Even though they were won, they had heard from their husbands how important this grand feast was, with high-ranking officials from the Capital attending, how could there be any carelessness?
Everyone saw this event as a rare opportunity to gain so advantage from it, especially the rchants, as this was a once-in-a-lifeti chance that wouldn’t co again.

If the feast succeeded, using Lord Song’s words relayed by their n, it might even continue annually in the future.
Although they might not always invite such high-ranking officials like Lord Qin again, gathering so many renowned and affluent rchants from all over the country was still a great opportunity!
Just the thought of it made their hearts race!
But if sothing went wrong with the grand feast, not to ntion whether Lord Qin would bla them, feeling that the people of Chicheng County were incompetent, everyone wanted a peaceful and auspicious New Year’s Eve, didn’t they?
If such things happened, wouldn’t it be inauspicious and a bad on?
Future feasts could be completely out of the question, and who knows how many storms of trouble would arise.
Thinking this way, everyone looked at Yang’s wife with anger, and so boldly said, “Lady Dingguo is right! This little wretch must not be let off lightly!”
“Exactly, Lady Dingguo, you’re being too kind! For soone ruining everyone’s efforts, breaking one leg isn’t enough! Break both!”
Soone else comnted, “That Lady Qin, whose family does this wretch belong to? Daring to lay a hand on Lady Dingguo, she must be hiding sothing sinister! Her husband is surely involved too, and can’t be let off!”
Lady Qin shivered as she stepped out from the corner, “To report to the Madam, this Yang… this thief is from the fur trader Ma Family, please discern, Madam, it truly has nothing to do with my family—” Tears welled as she spoke, she truly regretted it! Today, she shouldn’t have brought this little wretch!
If it wasn’t for her husband’s greed to do business with that fur trader Ma Daha, how could she have caused such trouble?
Now she only hoped Lady Dingguo would be generous and understand clearly, not dragging her family into this.
Upon hearing the words of the surrounding won, Yang’s wife sneered despite her chest pain, just about to speak, when Old Granny Zhang, watching her every move, pulled a towel from a maid’s hand nearby and stuffed it into her mouth.
Yang’s wife’s eyes widened with shock but quickly recovered, pulling the towel out with her hands, spitting several tis, and glaring murderously at Old Granny Zhang, “You old devout woman, how dare you—”
“Crack—” Two sounds, and all of Yang’s wife’s words turned into a wail.
Wang Yongzhu’s face was ice-cold as she leisurely withdrew her foot from Yang’s wife’s leg, “Seems you still have strength to speak, the lesson wasn’t deep enough!”
Understand, Old Granny Zhang was Wang Yongzhu’s reverse scale, insult her and Wang Yongzhu might not be angry, but touch Old Granny Zhang with even a word, Wang Yongzhu would never forgive.
Once Wang Yongzhu withdrew her foot, Yang’s wife rolled around in pain, but with one arm and one leg rendered useless by Wang Yongzhu, the pain beca unbearable with every move.
The entire hall was silent with fear, only Yang’s wife’s wailing filled the air.
Outside, a rush of footsteps approached, the curtain lifted, and a group of burly n rushed in, none other than Song Xiaoyin and his brothers,
Upon entering, the first thing they did was to ensure Wang Yongzhu and Old Granny Zhang were alright, and only then did they relax.
