Madam Xu was dumbstruck. She had imagined that young lady, who had just lost her husband, would be miserable and weak, helpless and vulnerable to others. In the past, Mu Xiaowan had been in her hands for more than ten years, and every time she heard her voice, she would tremble.
But right now, it was obvious that Xiaowan still had not gotten over her anger. She bent down and grabbed Madam Xu's neck, scaring him so much that she grabbed at her and asked her to let go.
However, her neck was being pinched so tightly that she couldn't breathe, she couldn't care less and could only desperately break Xiaowan's hand, struggling to say: "You little slut, let me go, let me go … …"
"Do you remember? If I see you again, I will definitely make you meet the King of Hell. "Next time you see me, stay away from me. Don't even let me see you." Xiaowan's entire body was filled with a ruthless aura, as though she had lost control of it, she roared, "Those who want to live, scram."
Madam Xu rolled on the ground, holding onto her neck with much difficulty as she gasped for breath and coughed, trembling as she looked at Xiaowan.
This person no longer had his old shadow, nor did he look like a dead man's wife. Her eyes were filled with murderous intent, almost like a devil.
Uncle Biao walked up and pulled Madam Xu up like a little chick and threw him out of the door. She rolled a few times, then crawled up from the ground while crying and wailing.
Xiaowan was so angry that she moved up and down, gasping for breath. Little Pei came out from nowhere and climbed up the hem of her skirt. Xiaowan carried him in her arms, and his son's fat little hands touched her chest.
"Mother isn't angry. Mother, don't be angry." Little Pei earnestly comforted his mother. His eyes were sparkling and translucent, a single tear fell onto the hem of Xiaowan's clothes. In that moment, the ruthless aura around her body dissipated.
"Little Pei..." Xiaowan felt very tired, he couldn't even hold her son anymore, so he could only sit to the side and rub her son's head, "Mother scared Little Pei, is that right? Little Pei isn't afraid, Mother wouldn't do that to you."
However, her son comforted her gently and helped her calm down. He said in a baby voice, "Mother and Little Pei."
The scene just now was in the eyes of both the Uncle Biao and the Aunt Zhang. The Xiaowan seemed to have become a completely different person. Hatred? Would there be a day when she would be completely engulfed by this hostility?
However, Aunt Zhang said to Uncle Biao, "How does she have to endure the pain of killing his husband? When that day comes, it will be our fate.
As for the fact that the Madam Xu had crawled and rolled back to Qingling Village, when the people nearby saw her in such a sorry state, they all knew that Ling Xiao Inn was not to be trifled with.
Just like this, everyone spread rumors and added fuel to the fire. For a while, all sorts of rumors were spread. The people in the town had first been splashed with cold water by the county magistrate, and now they heard that the people in the inn were not to be trifled with.
Little Pei was obedient and considerate, the Xiaowan felt that it was not that she was taking care of his son, but rather his son taking care of her. However, she couldn't rely on Little Pei, nor could she force him to fear.
"Mother seemed to have no reason today. She scattered all the hatred in her heart onto that person. She only wants some silver. Why would I want it?" Seeing that her son was sleeping soundly, Xiaowan said to herself, "Mother knows, once the evil in my heart is released, I will not be able to control it. Little Pei, are you very worried for Mother?"
Little Pei could hear her, but he pretended to be fast asleep.
"Little Pei, mother will properly control his emotions. "Otherwise, as time passes, I will change and go to see your father on the Road to River Styx. He won't be able to recognize me." Xiaowan buried her face in her son's small arms and looked at the sweet scent of milk.
"Little Pei, I'm sorry. Mother frightened you." "But no matter what, Mother will protect you, protect the inn, protect Grandma and Aunt, Mother is your father's woman, I am Ling Chaofeng's woman."
Xiaowan closed her eyes as she muttered in her heart, "Husband, will you fall asleep?"
This kind of call could be heard thousands of miles away. Although Ling Chaofeng couldn't hear what his wife was saying clearly, he could clearly feel the sorrow, joy, and anger that came late at night.
This was a very strange thing, this life was already over, he should cut off this previous relationship, and have nothing to do with Mu Xiaowan anymore.
It was as if he had watched over the lives of others, and it had nothing to do with him. The people he had met in that lifetime, no matter what, would never affect his emotions again.
"Monster!"
The Chaofeng who was crouching on the Announcement Hall could see all six paths clearly, and could see any movement within the imperial capital's capital. At that moment, he only saw a gust of demonic wind pass through the main hall, attaching onto a Palace Maid who was holding tea, heading towards the Qingming Pavilion.
Ling Chaofeng flew out, pulling the monster away from Palace Maid and stepped on it. This was a fox spirit that had thousands of years of cultivation, it was able to break through heaven's weather and disturb the Emperor's mind.
"A thousand years of cultivation is in ruins. Bastard, die!" Just as Ling Chaofeng was about to tear the demon spawn into pieces, a gust of wind blew past.
He kindly said to his brother, "Penglai Island is short of a man who cleans the back mountains. I will take him there. She is not a bad person, she just likes to play."
Ling Chaofeng cupped his fists: "Please punish this demon." After he finished speaking, he immediately returned back onto the overhang of the Announcement Hall.
When the Captive Cow arrived and saw that his brother was trapped inside the stone statue, he could not bear it anymore and said: "Chaofeng, I wonder if you could sense that your relationship has not been broken off in this life."
Ling Chaofeng replied in a heavy voice, "Yes."
The Captive Cow said: "Even though your soul has returned to your Immortal body and you have been demoted to the mortal world to guard the Sovereign King, your fate has not ended. Your ninth life does not seem to have ended yet."
"What does Big Brother mean?"
"Imperial Mother has calculated to this day, but not the future. Perhaps what she has calculated is only the calamity of your life." The Captive Cow said, "Chaofeng, you must calm your heart and not act rashly. Otherwise, you will be able to cut off our fates, and this life will be the end of your subordinate."
After his brother finished speaking, he rode on the cloud and left. However, Ling Chaofeng's heart seemed to have been lit up by something. He had to calm his heart and wait for the right moment.
In the tranquil night, the sound of horses galloping could be heard from the capital. Ling Chaofeng opened his eyes to take a look and saw a horse carriage entering Prime Minister's Estate.
On the other side, the horse carriage stopped. Bi Zhenye jumped off the carriage and walked in, his entire body exhausted.
The mother and her servant had been waiting outside for a long time. When they saw their young master, they all heaved a sigh of relief.
"Mother, it's already so late. Why are you still waiting for me?" Bi Zhenye hurried over and said worriedly, "Your health has not been good these few days, you should get some rest earlier."
The Mrs. Bi, however, had a dark look in his eyes as he asked his son, "It's so late, where did you go?"
Bi Zhenye said: "Since grandmother wants to eat the jujube cake from Huai Xi County, I went to buy it. I travelled a long distance, and thus delayed my son's time."
The Mrs. Bi said hatefully: This is what the servants are doing, what are you doing?
"Mother, I should also show filial piety towards grandmother. This is my duty." Bi Zhenye did not think so and came to support his mother, "It's already late, Mother. Please rest early."
However, Mrs. Bi berated him angrily, "These few days, you have always been assigned by her to do these trivial and troublesome tasks. You are the eldest son of the Prime Minister's Estate, not the main butler.
Bi Zhenye was shocked, and quickly stopped her: "Mother, since you said it like that, how is it for Grandmother and Father to listen?"
Mrs. Bi was angered to the point that his face turned pale: "If she can do it, then why would he be afraid of others saying it? She doesn't know that you're going to participate in the examination soon, doesn't she know that his grandson is going to get a good name? Don't tell me that she doesn't want you to become a top scholar, and is hoping that you will honor your ancestors with your Bi Family? "
"Mother!" Seeing that her mother was getting more and more agitated, Bi Zhenye could only forcefully send her back.
Grand Councilor Counselor-in-chief Bi had already fallen asleep, and was woken up from his sleep by his wife and son. He impatiently asked, "It's already so late, what are you doing?"
The Mrs. Bi was already at his limit as he said to her husband, "What does your mother want? Is it to prevent Zhenye from getting the top scorer that makes her satisfied? Is Zhenye even her biological grandson? What is she trying to do by tormenting his own grandson? "
"Are you crazy?" Grand Councilor Counselor-in-chief Bi got up, and although he said that, he already understood it in his heart.
Bi Zhenye was stuck in the middle, feeling extremely awkward, he was scolded by his father: "You scoundrel thing, why aren't you getting out of here?"
"Why are you scolding him? How did he become a bastard? Is my son so worthless in your eyes? " Mrs. Bi was enraged, he suppressed the anger he felt for a long time, and asked with tears in his eyes, "What did I do wrong? "After so many years, she still looks down on me …"
The Grand Councilor Counselor-in-chief Bi indicated for his son to leave. Bi Zhenye did not dare to disobey, and closed the door, letting out a heavy sigh.
He brought his servants with him as he carried the dates that he had bought with great effort towards the inner courtyard's grandmother's bedroom. He even warned them along the way: "You are not to bring up this matter in front of the Old Madem."
In the living room in the courtyard, Grand Councilor Counselor-in-chief Bi held his wife in his arms as she trembled and cried pitifully. "Mother is already old, she can still live for a few more years. Don't bother with her."
Mrs. Bi choked with sobs, "I have endured for my entire life, no matter how she treated me, I will endure. But she can't be unfair to my children."
Grand Councilor Counselor-in-chief Bi said, "Don't let your imagination run wild. Is it not good enough for mother to treat you and your child?"
Mrs. Bi sat up, looking straight at his husband: "What about you? Do you hate me? "
The Prime Minister sighed but didn't say anything.
"Is Ling Qian a business or not?"
"No, the industry has long since died."
Mrs. Bi's gaze was sharp: "Fine, get him out of the capital, don't let him affect Zhenye's achievement in the exam."
The Prime Minister was shocked. "Stop fooling around, don't you know that the Emperor and General Shen are related to him? Don't tell me you want me to anger the Emperor?"
Mrs. Bi laughed coldly: "Come on, you have a way but you don't want to do it."
