Jiang Chuan quickly rushed up to hold back his wife, “No, no! Listen to me, darling. Killing is a crime, and so is injuring someone. It’s not worth it to get into trouble for people like him.”
With Zhou Lan’s strength, even ten Jiang Gui probably wouldn’t be enough for her to vent her anger on!
Previously, when Zhou Lan had hit someone, she had consciously controlled her strength, trying to teach the old Jiang family a lesson. But now, with her anger so apparent, what if she didn’t hold back and seriously hurt Jiang Gui?
Zhou Lan calmed down for a moment and looked seriously at Jiang Chuan, “Don’t worry, dear, I’ll be gentle.”
Jiang Chuan was speechless.
As Jiang Chuan opened the door, Jiang Gui, seeing Zhou Lan with the rolling pin standing next to him, instinctively cowered back.
Jiang Gui wasn’t alone; his second son, Jiang Lai, was with him.
Among Jiang Gui’s three sons, only Jiang Lai resembled him the most and was also the most favored. He had a triangular gaze, puffy eyelids that made his eyes look small, and a rather large face, giving him an oily and sleazy appearance.
Jiang Lai had never seen Zhou Lan hit someone before, so he was not afraid of this third aunt who used to have no status in his family. He stood in front of Zhou Lan with his chest out, taller than Zhou Lan by a head and a half.
Looking down at Zhou Lan through his nostrils, he said arrogantly, “Third Aunt, even if our households are separated, we’re still family. Why are you greeting us with a rolling pin?”
Zhou Lan was adept at sarcastic remarks, especially when addressing immature young brats. She managed to leave them speechless, “Oh, I thought some short-sighted bandits had entered the village. But on closer look, it turns out to be my triangular-eyed second nephew. Have you been living as a savage in the mountains for the past few months?”
The implication was that Jiang Lai appeared even rougher than before.
Although Jiang Lai had attended school, he never really listened in class. Whether it was creating disturbances or sleeping during lessons, he couldn’t differentiate between good words or bad. Regardless of what others said, he always held his head high with an air of superiority.
Jiang Gui got the insinuations, pulling his son aside and confronting Zhou Lan’s disdainful gaze, “An ignorant woman’s mouth is truly venomous. You should speak with more kindness, or you might not be able to have a son.”
She scoffed, “What a joke! Having three useless sons like yours is worse than having my three daughters, who are as beautiful as flowers.”
As she spoke, Zhou Lan raised her rolling pin, “Tell me, what are you here for?”
Seeing Zhou Lan’s fiery temper and realizing he could neither out-talk nor out-fight her, Jiang Gui shifted his anger towards Jiang Chuan, “You ungrateful brat! The Jiang family worked hard to raise you, and behind our backs, you schemed against us, snatching away our family’s land plot intended for Jiang Hong!”
While Jiang Chuan used to show restraint out of respect for family ties, now that he knew he was adopted by the Jiang family, he made no attempt to hide his disdain.
He sneered, “How did it become Jiang Hong’s land plot? Do you have any documentation? Is there an official stamp on it?”
Jiang Gui clenched his fists, “If you hadn’t cozied up to the captain, would he have given this land to you? I didn’t expect such a sly move from you!”
Jiang Xia couldn’t stand Jiang Gui’s distorted words and stepped in, “From what you’re saying, Uncle, it sounds like you’re describing yourself. Isn’t being lazy and seeking petty advantages your daily routine? Why are you also adding blatant distortions now?”
Jiang Gui hadn’t expected this once-meek girl, who used to be so submissive in the Jiang family and spoke so softly, to now dare to talk back with sharp words.
Raising his hand, Jiang Gui tried to slap Jiang Xia.
She looked up at his massive palm, showing no fear whatsoever.
Jiang Gui felt that Jiang Xia was provoking him, and he flew into a rage out of humiliation. He raised his palm high up and slammed it down heavily.
However, the slap did not land on Jiang Xia’s face. Instead, it landed on his son, Jiang Lai’s face.
Jiang Lai’s face instantly swelled, turning as red as an apple. From the force of the slap, it was evident that such a rugged face couldn’t bear it.. Had that slap landed on Jiang Xia’s delicate face, wouldn’t it have swollen for days?
