Chapter 187: Old Madam Yan Is Here, Image of a Shrew

Yuncheng…

At the start of the new year, the fireworks and firecrackers in Yuncheng echoed throughout most of the night. Qiao Aiyun had cleaned up the house last night.

It was nothing more than Song Jingren’s clothes and some daily necessities. She threw away those that should be thrown away and packed some of them into woven bags. She had initially planned to send them to him, but Song Jingren insisted on getting them himself.

Qiao w.a.n.gbei had said that she could just throw them straight into the trash. Packing them for him? She had to be too free.

Qiao Aiyun only smiled. Once you stopped loving someone, you would truly feel that this person was not indispensable. She tidied his clothes as though she was packing up her past at the same time.

She placed the woven bags at the entrance and looked at her watch. She had arranged to meet Song Jingren at 10 o’clock. It was still early.

“I’ll go to the store to take a look. If Song Jingren dares to do anything to you, call me.” Qiao w.a.n.gbei put on his coat and prepared to go out.

The Jade Hall of Spring had been smashed by people previously. On the first day of the new year, it reopened, and there were also some new year events. As the older brother, he hadn’t taken care of the store’s business in the past, so he naturally had to go and take a look this time.

“Okay.” Qiao Aiyun wasn’t afraid of what Song Jingren would do. If he really dared to act rashly, she wouldn’t show mercy either.

Qiao w.a.n.gbei went to the kitchen to rummage for a long time before taking a rolling pin and placing it behind the door. “If he dares to touch you or speak rudely, beat him out.”

Qiao Aiyun smiled and nodded. “Then, you should go to the store first. I’ll be there when I’m done here.”

Qiao w.a.n.gbei reminded her again before leaving.

***

Qiao Aiyun waited until 10:15 a.m., but she still didn’t see a trace of him. She was about to call to urge him when she heard the sound of a car at the door. She opened the door and saw an old white van parked outside her house.

The four wheels were covered in muddy water, and half of the car was dirty. When she saw the people push the doors open and get out, she frowned slightly.

Three men got out of the car. One of them was about 60 years old. He was obese, dressed lightly, and had spa.r.s.e hair. The way he looked at her was resentful and severe.

“Uncle.” Qiao Aiyun took a deep breath. He was Song Jingren’s relative. He usually lived in the countryside and didn’t leave his place much. But he would definitely make a trip here for any happy events or buying a house.

Song Jingren cared about his reputation. Even if the person was a distant relative, as long as they came to request help, he would always give them money.

Qiao Aiyun had been unhappy with this, and she had quarreled a lot with Song Jingren over it.

If you didn’t lend them money, they would say, “After making money, you no longer acknowledge your poor relatives,” and then carry out moral oppression. But when they took the money, they would take it for granted. They wouldn’t mention anything about returning the money and would instead come more and more diligently.

Qiao Aiyun usually didn’t interact with them. But to come over at this time with a face full of anger, they probably had ill intentions.

Upon hearing her address to him, the old man in the lead snorted coldly. Before she could greet him, he strode into the house.

Qiao Aiyun looked at the row of footprints on the white porcelain tiles and gritted her teeth. But she still endured it first.

“Uncle, why are you here?” Even though they were relatives of the Song family, he was also an elder. She still greeted them politely and poured tea for the three of them.

“Aiyun, I heard that you and Jingren got divorced?” This uncle spoke with an air of arrogance. He was considered the head of the Song family over at their side and had a high status, so naturally, he acted a little bossy.

“Yes.”

“You two have been married for more than twenty years. What hurdle can’t you cross? You insisted on getting a divorce no matter what and even hit him on TV. He’s a man. How can he raise his head and meet others in the future?”

Hearing him suddenly making things difficult for her, Qiao Aiyun frowned slightly.

“Don’t blame Uncle for sounding nasty. Our Song family has never had a daughter-in-law like you before. How dare you hit your own man? You even argued about getting a divorce.”

“Family scandals shouldn’t be publicized. Look at you. You simply had to make it public. Now, the whole village knows that our Song family has a fierce daughter-in-law!”

Qiao Aiyun laughed lightly.

“Then, do you know what he did outside?

“He even brazenly brought his illegitimate daughter into the house. In your eyes, isn’t this embarra.s.sing for the Song family?

“Or perhaps I should say that such an ugly scandal is nothing in your eyes?”

The elder didn’t expect her to dare talk back. He slapped the coffee table and jumped up. “He’s a man!”

“A man? So it’s not a crime for him to have an affair, and women should degrade themselves? Serves them right to suffer?” Qiao Aiyun had been dissatisfied with him for a long time, and his words had utterly angered her.

“Cousin-in-Law, how can you speak this way?” The two juniors beside her also stood up to reprimand her.

“Let’s not talk about you and Jingren first. I’m here today because I heard that you two got divorced, and he gave you the home manor? You even want to sell the land?” Uncle Song asked angrily.

“Yes.” Qiao Aiyun didn’t deny it.

Song Jingren had given her all his real estate, including his manor in the countryside.

When Uncle Song heard this, he exploded immediately. “That land was left behind by our ancestors. It belongs to our Song family. What right do you have to sell it? You’re being very disrespectful to our ancestors.”

“He gave this land to me, so I naturally have full authority to handle it. In terms of disrespect, Song Jingren is the one who shamed the Song family’s ancestors,” Qiao Aiyun retorted immediately.

Uncle Song sneered. “I knew it. You’ve never taken our Song family seriously. Now, you’ve exposed your true nature. How dare you speak to me like this?

“I think you were just pretending to be virtuous in the past.

“Let me tell you something. If you dare touch our old Song family’s land, I will fight it out with you.”

…

Since niceties weren’t working, he started threatening her.

Qiao Aiyun had long had enough of this family. She took a deep breath.

“If you’re done talking, the door is here.” Her tone was chilly. She was obviously chasing them out.

Uncle Song was so angry that his body was trembling. “This is our Song family’s house. What right do you have to chase me away? You’ve gone too far…”

Qiao Aiyun sneered. “You’re not leaving, right? Then let’s settle the score properly.

“All these years, whenever your son got married, your daughter got married, and your family renovated a new house, even after your father died, you would come here to extort a sum of money. As an elder, have you ever wanted your face?

“Song Jingren and I are already divorced. I’m only being polite to you because you’re an elder. I didn’t allow you here to make a scene and scold me while pointing your fingers at my nose.

“If you are angry, go find your nephew. You don’t have the right to criticize me, nor do I have any reason to accept this.

“If you really refuse to leave, I’ll call the police. Don’t embarra.s.s yourself!”

Qiao Aiyun’s face was cold, and she didn’t show them any kindness.

“How the h.e.l.l are you to talk to my father like that?” A middle-aged man by the side jumped out and wanted to lay a hand on Qiao Aiyun straight away.

She was currently standing very close to the door. Immediately, she picked up the rolling pin Qiao w.a.n.gbei had taken earlier and hit him.

Humans were all born with mortal bodies. How could he win against a rolling pin? Whenever Qiao Aiyun’s rolling pin swung down on him, he cried out noisily.

“You’re crazy! How dare you!” Uncle Song stomped his feet in anger upon seeing his son get beaten up.

The other person beside them also hurried over to help.

Holding the rolling pin, Qiao Aiyun showed no mercy. If anyone dared to come over, she would definitely beat him until his mother didn’t recognize him.

Her heart burning with anger, she raised her rolling pin and beat them up ferociously. In order to maintain this family, she had had to please these people all these years. She had long been unable to hold it in, and this was a good time to vent her anger.

“Sh*t, she’s gone crazy! Someone’s trying to kill people.” Uncle Song was already in his sixties, so he naturally didn’t dare to help. He opened the door, ran out, and tried to call for help.

…

As soon as he opened the door, he hadn’t taken two steps before nearly b.u.mping into a man.

“… Please help me. Go in and take a look. That crazy woman is about to kill someone.”

At this moment, Song Jingren, who had been hiding in the dark, was waiting for an opportunity to act the whole time. When he saw his uncle come out, he was about to go in and help when someone entered the house before him.

Why is it f*cking him again?

Does Yan w.a.n.gchuan stay around Qiao Aiyun every day instead of working?

When Yan w.a.n.gchuan heard the word ‘kill’ and the yelling and arguing in the house, he was afraid that Qiao Aiyun was being bullied.

But when he entered the house, he saw her holding a rolling pin and actually beating two adult men until they kept begging for mercy.

Her eyes seemed to be red from beating them, and she couldn’t stop at all. The living room was a complete mess.

“Aiyun.” Yan w.a.n.gchuan walked over and grabbed her arm. If this continued, someone would die.

Qiao Aiyun’s hair was messy, and her breathing was uneven. She was obviously furious.

Upon seeing someone stopping her, the two heaved a sigh of relief. They were finally saved. When this woman goes crazy, it’s f*cking frightening.

“How dare you call me crazy and boss me around in my own house? Who do you people think you are? You even wanted to attack me?”

“Were you hit?” Yan w.a.n.gchuan asked.

“I was just touched twice. It’s alright.” Qiao Aiyun casually brushed her hair aside. In a physical dispute, it was inevitable to get scratched or touched.

“Song Jingren’s relatives forbade me from selling the manor and came here to scold me.

“They even wanted to hit me. They’re too arrogant. They thought I was easy to bully because they had more people on their side,” she explained while panting breathlessly…

Yan w.a.n.gchuan’s expression darkened.

The two of them were about to get up from the ground when unexpectedly, the ‘savior’ in their eyes suddenly lifted his foot…

… and kicked them savagely.

Of course, his strength and ruthlessness were incomparable to someone of the fairer s.e.x like Qiao Aiyun.

Qiao Aiyun had already run out of energy nearing the end of the beating, and her blows weren’t as heavy as at the start. But this man’s one kick seemed like it was going to break their bones.

“Ah—” One of them screamed miserably.

Who the f*ck is this? Uncle Song had thought that he had found someone to help, but he hadn’t expected this person to be even more ruthless.

Without saying anything, he started right away.

“… You… you’re that adulterer?” Uncle Song only remembered now that he had appeared on TV before and stood on Qiao Aiyun’s side.

Yan w.a.n.gchuan narrowed his eyes. Adulterer?

“Dad, call the police! Call the police…!” One of the men was already screaming over and over again from the beating.

Dad? Naturally, Yan w.a.n.gchuan wouldn’t lay his hands on an old man in his sixties. In that case, he would vent his anger on his son.

In the end, Yan w.a.n.gchuan had come to mediate the fight, but Qiao Aiyun was now the one holding on to him tightly.

This man hit them too hard. Does he really want to cripple them?

If something really happens, given their nature, they will definitely cling to us.

…

About ten minutes later, the security guards and the police appeared at the door.

“Officer, you have to seek justice for us. This woman and her lover are both lunatics. Look at how they beat up my son…” Upon seeing the police, Uncle Song rushed to them and wailed.

The police officer narrowed his eyes. They were in charge of this district. As soon as he saw Yan w.a.n.gchuan, his head immediately hurt. Why is it f*cking him again?

“Lover? Say that again?” Yan w.a.n.gchuan’s tone was cold.

“Officer, look at what’s going on. We spoke nicely to them, but this happened…”

“Spoke nicely?” The police officer raised his eyebrows and looked at Qiao Aiyun. “Who attacked first?”

“She did. She was even holding a weapon,” Uncle Song complained first.

Upon seeing his unreasonable behavior, the police officer knew that this old man was not to be trifled with. But there were no surveillance cameras in the living room of the Qiao family mansion and no other witnesses. Since both parties’ testimonies were not consistent, it wouldn’t be easy for them to mediate.

“Was there no one else present?” the police officer asked.

Qiao Aiyun shook her head. After the incident, the servants at home had been dismissed. Even Aunt Liang had been given a vacation to go back to her hometown to rest. Naturally, no one could bear witness.

“This…” The police officer had a headache. Looks like another difficult case.

“How about this? You all come back to the station with me to make a statement.”

The group of people was about to leave when they saw two people standing at the door…

The old lady standing in front was wearing a dark purple cotton s.h.i.+rt embroidered with cl.u.s.ters of big and small hibiscus flowers. It was very eye-catching. She had gold-rimmed gla.s.ses, short ear-length hair, and a modern hair perm, looking especially western. She was leaning on a thin walking stick with a calm and indifferent expression.

“Officer, I’m a witness. I practically saw everything that happened through the window outside.” The Song family grew orchids, so they had deliberately built a big French window to allow the flowers and plants to receive natural light. The curtains were all drawn during the day.

When Yan w.a.n.gchuan heard this voice, his body stiffened.

Qiao Aiyun’s heart skipped a beat. Isn’t this…

She saw everything?

She had chased people with a rolling pin just now. This time, she was too ashamed to face anyone.

After not seeing her for more than 20 years, she must have felt that she had become a shrew now.
