Farm Girl Turns Everything Around: Sly Husband, Let's Farm-Chapter 607 - : Beat to Death
Chapter 607: Chapter 607: Beat to Death
Upon hearing Tong Sanlang’s words, a moment of silence befell the courtyard.
By this time, Tong Dalong, Tong Erlong, and others had all stood up, and upon hearing these words, they were stunned into silence.
These words…it seemed like this was the real deal…
Tong Tiehu, upon hearing this, furrowed his brows and asked, “What exactly did your mother say?”
“She said that there might be something going on between Xiaomai and His Highness, Prince Wei,” Tong Sanlang didn’t hide anything and came right out with it.
His words echoed in the courtyard, plunging it into an even deeper silence.
Never mind Qiao Xiaomai’s reputation, these words involved His Highness, Prince Wei.
Prince Wei was currently residing in the town, and the Tong Family had just had their property confiscated by the retiring emperor, and now they were spreading rumors about Prince Wei…
They must be tired of living in peace.
Upon hearing this, Tong Tiehu was so angry that he nearly choked. Taking a deep breath, his trembling voice filled with boundless fury, he commanded, “Xingda, beat her mercilessly! Even if she’s beaten to death, we’ll just say she suddenly became critically ill and passed away!”
What use was there in keeping such a trouble-inviting mouth around?
To be rid of her would solve everything!
Tong Xingda acknowledged the order, picking up the stick that Zhang Family had just used and ruthlessly lashed out at Zhang on the ground, “You old hag, do you want our family to fall even harder? I’ll teach you a lesson for all your chatter!”
Tong Xingda was always rough and brutal when punishing people. Now, angered by Zhang’s words, his blows were even more fierce and merciless, as if he truly intended to beat her to death.
Zhang instantly covered her head and began to wail in agony. Realizing Tong Xingda’s vicious and relentless assault, she immediately screamed for help, “Eldest Son, Second Son, quickly restrain your father, save me!”
“Even the king of heaven can’t save you today!” Tong Xingda spat out venomously, swinging his stick and foot at her, “Wench, you always cause trouble out of nothing, you are the real troublemaker, one day you’ll get our whole family involved!”
Zhang, seeing that all three of her sons remained motionless, felt both grief and anger. In her evasion, she accidentally caught sight of Qiao Xiaomai, who was calmly standing at the door watching her, which made her even angrier, “Isn’t it obvious that she’s close with His Highness?”
“Shut your filthy mouth, I’ll tear it to shreds!” Tong Xingda, seeing her unrepentant attitude, promptly discarded his stick, pinned Zhang down with one hand around her neck, and repeatedly slapped her face with his free hand.
“Prince Wei is a subject of your casual fabrication? Foolish woman, I’ll let you blurt nonsense, I’ll let you!”
The smacking sounds echoed through the courtyard, one after another, chilling to the bone.
Qiao Xiaomai stood emotionless at the door, her face calm.
But clearly, she was secretly thrilled.
As expected, the Zhang lady had gone too far.
Had she fabricated rumors about her and other men, Tong Xingda might not have reacted so violently. However, she had fabricated rumors about Yang Ye and herself.
This was serious.
The Yang Ye she mentioned was a prestigious royal prince of Daqi, shining with dignity and honor. To slander him this way suggested that she must have a bear’s courage and a leopard’s gall.
While Yang Ye appeared jovial daily, seeming to have a great temper, she would never forget their first encounter.
Back then, Yang Ye was haughty, emanating an imperial aura, his words were law. Had the head of the valley not intervened, she might have ended up working as a kitchen maid in the Prince Wei Residence out of desperation.
She mustn’t overlook his royal status no matter how kindly he treated her now.
