Mr. Xiao and Xiao Chenye, though they didn’t chatter about it, had a rough idea about how they got their small talk news.

Mrs. Xiao gave a light cough, masking her embarrassment, "Anyway, that’s the way it is, you all come up with some ideas."

Xiao Chenye pondered for a moment, "Mom, what do you and Ranran think?"

Mrs. Xiao’s approach to this was nothing short of straightforward and crude: "If it were up to me, there’s no need to beat around the bush.

Just take the people, storm into the Xiao Family, tear Zhou Xiuying’s face off, and stomp it on the ground!"

What she said was impassioned and enthusiastic.

The others looked at each other in dismay.

Xiao Chenxing sheepishly said, "Mom, something like this, really only you can do it. If you let Auntie do it, I feel like, it’s too much..."

Mrs. Xiao: "..."

She got carried away.

Forgot this wasn’t her family’s matter, it was the affairs of the soft buns family.

Mr. Xiao silently raised his hand, sheepishly, "Is this news reliable?"

Mrs. Xiao glared, what the hell, what’s wrong with this man?

Critical moment, are you dropping the ball on your mother?

Your mother personally leaned on the roof, listened carefully, how could it not be reliable?

Mrs. Xiao replied gruffly, "What do you mean by that?

Don’t trust me? Or do you think your mother is such an agreeable person, can’t do such despicable, unethical things?"

Mr. Xiao: "..."

At this point, he really regretted his clumsy tongue.

"No," Mr. Xiao earnestly said, "I just think, my mother is both bad and sneaky.

For such pointless effort, if not understood clearly, she wouldn’t get involved in something that could drag her in."

Mrs. Xiao was left speechless, what could she say.

It takes someone from the inside to understand.

This Mrs. Xiao Sr. sure is both bad and stupid.

The marriage of her eldest back then, it was also this old hag meddling in it for personal gain.

Now the eldest is gone, his wife with two kids wandering miserably in the Silly Deer Team, and this old hag didn’t even lend a hand.

Before Mrs. Xiao could think of any excuse, the door rang.

She huffed, "Why are you just standing there, go open the door."

Mr. Xiao got up to open the door.

The moment the door opened, there was the foolishly devious face of Zhou Xiuying.

This person, you could deal with.

Because she’s devious enough and foolish enough.

Devious that you could see it at a glance. It actually made things certain.

But at this moment, Zhou Xiuying showing up, Mr. Xiao’s heart sank.

Could it be, his mother was about to make a comeback and do that barbaric thing again?

His expression unchanged, he politely said, "Ah, it’s Sister-in-law, what brings you here?"

Zhou Xiuying gave Mr. Xiao a disdainful look, quite disdainful that it was him opening the door.

"Not that I’m saying, you as a big man, after spring plowing, don’t you know how to rest?

You still have to run to open the door, have the women and children of your family all died out?"

Mr. Xiao politely replied, "If they’re to die out, yours will first. Have done so many bad things, surely the hell messengers will first come for your family."

Stumped, Zhou Xiuying was a bit dumbfounded.

What happened, this man who wouldn’t fart if kicked three times, also knows how to talk back?

She thought of just telling Mr. Xiao, getting it done and over with.

But remembering Mrs. Xiao Sr.’s earnest instructions to mention it in front of the most irritable Mrs. Xiao, she swallowed the words back.

"You’re now talking just like your wife."

It was just a casual remark, but he opened his mouth wanting to choke her to death.

Not gentlemanly at all.

Zhou Xiuying cleared her throat, "Right, where’s your wife?"

"What do you need from her? You can tell me if there’s anything."

"It’s women’s business, why are you meddling, you big man."

Mrs. Xiao had already come over, arms folded, she gave Zhou Xiuying a look up and down, her tone unfriendly, "What do you want from me?"

"What’s with your attitude?"

"That’s my attitude towards you, how about that? Not happy about it? If not, get lost!"

Mrs. Xiao was like a firecracker ready to blow, "Really, which eye can bear the sight of you?

Sister-in-law, when are you finally going to die, let me know in advance, so I can buy a couple of strings of firecrackers in preparation. When you die, it’ll help us get rid of your bad luck."

Can’t help but say, Mrs. Xiao sure lives up to her name, just a couple of simple sentences made Zhou Xiuying collapse.

She trembled, "Not fair, how are you speaking like this?!"

"With my mouth, now what’s the matter?"

"Mother’s 65th birthday, remember to come tomorrow with a set of winter clothes for the New Year, and bring a jar of malted milk and a can of milk powder."

These demands were really too harsh.

Zhou Xiuying was sure, as soon as she mentioned these outrageous presents, she would surely get a beating from Mrs. Xiao.

If tomorrow when the birthday actually happens, this family doesn’t come.

That soft bun Li Xiaohua’s family of three can be toyed by her as she likes?

As long as things go as planned, then the days of wealth and glory...

Zhou Xiuying indulged in her imagination and couldn’t help but laugh.

"Smack!"

A slap landed on her face, leaving Zhou Xiuying dumbfounded.

She had braced herself for a beating, but never imagined it would aim for her face.

"You..."

Zhou Xiuying clutched her face, in disbelief, "You don’t hit someone in the face, or expose someone’s shortcomings, you have no sense of ethics?"

"Pah!" Mrs. Xiao seemed to react big to Zhou Xiuying’s words, but actually, her heart was calm.

Simply put, it was just that old hag’s tactic.

Isn’t it just not wanting me to go?

I must go, just to see that face of the old hag who ate shit.

At this moment, Mrs. Xiao just wanted to make a fuss, to beat Zhou Xiuying up mercilessly.

She had long set her sights, today beating Zhou Xiuying, tomorrow she’ll disgust Mrs. Xiao Sr.

Definitely worth it.

"You want your mother to talk ethics with you?"

Mrs. Xiao took the broom from Mr. Xiao, and lunged at Zhou Xiuying, "If I talked ethics with you, I’d be sold by weight!"

Zhou Xiuying was beaten, crying for her parents, and ran off clenching her face.

Due to feeling guilty about what she was about to do, Zhou Xiuying didn’t dare to make a fuss.

She ran swiftly and decisively.

Mrs. Xiao threw down the broom with a curse, Mr. Xiao closed the door, and when he sat down again, he was earnest.

Alright, no matter where the news came from.

It’s definitely true.

"Go get the buns family over here."

After all, Li Xiaohua’s family is the real party, Xiao Li is the real victim.

"Alright."

Regarding this matter, the family sent out capable younglings Xiao Chenxing and Hongguo.

The two were brainwashed by Wen Ran in just a couple of words, full of vigor as they ran off to call over Li Xiaohua’s family.

After the two happily trotted off, Xiao Chenye curiously asked, "Why them in particular?"

It’s just relaying a message, doesn’t matter who does it, right?

Wen Ran instantly slumped in a chair as if boneless, airily said, "Oh, those two are the easiest to fool.

Besides, I’m feeling quite lazy."
