Chapter 5 Farce
Lu Zhengting stared at the people in the courtyard, feeling sad in his heart.

"Mother!" he shouted forcefully.

This honest and honest man spoke to his mother in such a loud voice for the first time.

But he still didn't get the family's attention. Instead, he sneered, "The second brother also wants to protect this despicable thing?" Lu Zhengxiu's eyes glanced over Lu Zhengting and Meng Qingning's bodies with a playful meaning. He pointedly said, "This girl's abilities are really extraordinary. She has only been here a few days, and yet she has made you all dare to disobey her, even your own mother, for her sake."

This sentence he said was particularly loud.

Hearing this, the old lady felt that Meng Qingning was a nuisance even more, and she rushed towards Meng Qingning as if she had been stimulated by something.

"You bitch, why are you so shameless?"

Meng Qingning finally stopped being silent and easily dodged the old lady's attack, which almost made her fall to pieces.

She patted her clothes casually and said, "Be careful, don't blame me again."

After speaking, he came to Wang and helped her up.

Then he looked at everyone in the yard and shook his head in disgust.

Finally, she put her eyes on Lu Qiyuan's face and said with a half-smile, "You said I seduced him?"

Lu Qiyuan felt a little guilty at her glance.

But he soon recovered. He was the most beloved grandson of the Lu family. It was no easier to crush a little widow than to kill an ant.

But just as he was about to speak, Meng Qingning preempted him, "I'm not interested in trash who can only cry for father and mother." Her expression was more disgusting than swallowing a fly, "He can't read more than three years of school." A young boy who can’t compete with the village’s top two dogs is worthy of me to care about him?”

The second dog was a dog raised by the Xiang family. It was lame in one leg and looked extremely ugly.

The person in the big room suddenly looked extremely ugly.

"Pfft..." Only the third aunt couldn't help laughing.

Soon she received the warning in her aunt's eyes, and could only put away her expression angrily.

Meng Qingning's words completely offended the people in the big house and the old lady to death.

If they just wanted to drive her out at first, now they wanted to cut her into pieces.

The old lady gave a look and Lu Zhengxiu was about to take action.

Unexpectedly, Meng Qingning went out of her way and knelt on the ground with a plop, begging for mercy with a cry, "Grandma, I shouldn't make you angry, please don't beat me to death."

Although the old lady didn't understand where Meng Qingning was singing, she didn't care about anything else at all. She just wanted to catch Meng Qingning, so she pulled and cursed, "Beat her to death!"

Feeling insulted, Lu Qiyuan rushed up and kicked Meng Qingning several times, "Damn girl, go to hell!"

But what he didn't know was that he would soon pay the price for his kicks.

Just when they fell into madness, the door was pushed open again, and several people poured in from outside. The leader was the patriarch of the Lu family and Mr. Lu's cousin.

When everyone came in, they saw Lu Zhengxiu pulling Meng Qingning, while Lu Qiyuan kept kicking and beating her.

The other people in the second room were also pushed to the ground, with injuries on their faces.

In particular, Meng Qingning's face was covered with wounds, her hair was torn to pieces by the old lady, and there was blood at the corner of her mouth.

Combined with the words they heard from Meng Qingning begging for mercy at the door, they seemed to have guessed what happened.

The patriarch's face was livid, and he almost threw the crutch out of his hand in anger, "You... what are you doing?" Lu Zhengxiu reluctantly let go of Meng Qingning.

Meng Qingning lay down on the ground and seemed to be dying. Even so, she still looked at her mother-in-law worriedly.

Wang also broke free and rushed over. After seeing Meng Qingning's injuries, she worriedly asked, "How are you, Ning'er?"

The people in the second room were all injured, and they were surrounded by a weak force, which was in sharp contrast to the domineering assailant just now.

This made the clan leader furious, "Brothers and sisters, Mr. Qingtian in my yamen doesn't dare to sentence others to death at will. It's better for you to kill others at will. Do you still have the law in your eyes?"

After he said this, he started to cough violently.

He is the most respected person in the family and speaks with great weight.

Only then did the old lady feel that she had gotten into a big trouble, but she still wanted to give herself a few excuses, "Brother, don't be deceived by this damn girl. It was all her misbehavior and seducing our Yuan'er, so I..."

Seeing that she was unrepentant, the patriarch's wife stood up and said angrily, "Are you talking about what happened in the afternoon?"

This grandma was born in the county town. After getting married, she was highly valued by her husband's family. She rarely worked in the fields, and her temperament was very different from that of ordinary rural women.

She concentrates on caring for her husband and raising her children at home. One of her sons is a scholar and is now a teacher in a private school in the village. The other one has been appreciated by the nobles in Kyoto and is on duty in the capital.

This is one of the reasons why they are highly respected.

Both sons were raised very well by her, and it can be seen that they are sensible people.

The old lady thought she knew about this and was very happy, "She failed to seduce Yuan'er, so she held a grudge and beat him up. You know our Yuan'er..."

She spoke so enthusiastically that she didn't notice the change in Lu Qiyuan's face at all.

"That's enough!" Grandma always looked down on the biased old lady. Now seeing her confusing right and wrong, she interrupted her impatiently, "I saw clearly what happened in the afternoon. It was Qi Yuan who bullied that girl. First, and the injury on his face was caused by his accidental fall."

She sighed with hatred, "Brothers and sisters, don't blame everything on others."

In the afternoon, she went to deliver dry food to her husband and happened to pass by. She saw the scene clearly.

It's just that Lu Qiyuan kept his back to her and didn't see her.

What's more, how could she not know what kind of child Qi Yuan was raised by them?

Only their family members were deceived by ghosts and mistook fish eyes for pearls.

What a pity for that child.

"You gave birth to all three children. If you do this, you won't be afraid of chilling the children's hearts..." She sighed mid-sentence and said no more. After helping Meng Qingning up, she continued, "This girl is also kind-hearted and asked me to help hide her, but you bit her back. She's beaten like this without fear of losing her life."

After speaking, she shook her head.

As soon as these words were spoken, discussions began to take place in the courtyard.

Some people feel sorry for the second wife, while others think the old lady is blind.

If they arrive later, wouldn't this girl's life be in danger?

Lu Qinan also knelt down and said, "Grandma, I know you don't like our family, but my eldest brother is gone. Please let my sister-in-law go." After saying that, he kowtowed hard to the old lady.
