Huang Lilan’s lips were trembling. “Mom, no. It’s not like that… I…” “Kneel!”
Old Madam Gu did not want to listen to her explanation at all. She raised the walking cane in her hand and hit Huang Lilan’s leg heavily. Huang Lilan felt a sharp pain in her knee and her body immediately knelt on the ground.
This was the first time Qiao Xi had seen Old Madam Gu fly into a rage. Her face was filled with shock.
Although this old lady was getting on in years, she was still quite strong. With just one swing of her cane, Huang Lilan had already knelt down. No wonder she gave her a lethal weapon the first time they met.
Old Madam Gu was full of vigor. “Huang Lilan, do you think that I’m terminally ill and won’t be able to live for long? Do you think it’s your turn to make decisions for the Gu family now?”
Huang Lilan’s face contorted in pain, but her tone remained gentle. “No… No, Mom. I really…” “No? Although I’m always in a coma, I’m not deaf or blind. I know very well how you treat Zheng’er. Just look at the state of Maple Garden? Is that the place where the head of the Gu family should live? Not only did you chase him there but you even sent someone to seal the windows. Are you worthy of being the wife of the Gu family?”
Huang Lilan explained weakly, “Mom, I didn’t mean any harm. Maple Garden is where Ah Zheng has lived since he was young. I… | was afraid that he wouldn’t be used to it, so… I let him live there. As for the windows… I don’t know about the windows! It’s Qiao Xi! She’s framing me! I really… don’t know anything!”
Old Madam Gu swept a cold glance at her, raised her walking cane, and hit her hard on the back. She roared, “You still dare to slander your daughter-in-law? Although I’m old, my eyes are still bright! I know clearly what you’re thinking. It’s fine if you don’t like Zheng’er, but now that he has already established his own family and business, you’re still unwilling to let him off. Don’t forget that everything in the Gu family now belongs to my grandson. If you’re unwilling to stay here, then get lost!”
When Huang Lilan heard this, her body went limp and she fell to the floor.
Gu Weiming’s expression turned ugly as he tried to persuade Old Madam Gu in a low voice. “Mom, calm down. This is actually still Qiao Xi…”
Old Madam Gu gave him a look of disdain. Without giving him a chance to speak, she smashed her walking cane on his knee.
He hadn’t finished speaking when he felt a sharp pain in his knee. He instinctively knelt before Qiao Xi.
Old Madam Gu lowered her eyes and looked at Gu Weiming in disgust. “Why did I give birth to such a silly person like you?! I get angry whenever I see you. From now on, whenever you speak to me, you have to kneel down!”
Qiao Xi looked at Gu Weiming who was kneeling before her and took a few steps back in embarrassment. She walked to Gu Zheng’s side and was extremely shocked. “Your grandmother is really… a heroine! As expected of the Gu family’s old madam. She’s really bold!”
Gu Weiming’s face turned pale, but he did not dare to refute.
Even though he was an arrogant man, he did not dare to go against Old Madam Gu. This was because Old Madam Gu was the true master of the Gu family. She had once wanted to hand over the authority of the Gu family to Gu Zheng, but Gu Zheng was unwilling to accept it.
The power of the Gu family was now in the hands of Old Madam Gu, and Gu Weiming only had the right to speak when Old Madam Gu was unconscious.
Gu Weiming gritted his teeth. “Mom, don’t listen to Qiao Xi’s side of the story. She’s very scheming. Lilan is Ah Zheng’s biological mother. There’s no reason for her to poison him!”
Old Madam Gu glared at him from above.
Gu Weiming panicked. He was afraid that Old Madam Gu would reveal the secret. He quickly said, “I think this…”
Huang Lilan’s face was also filled with terror as she shed tears of grievance. “Mom, | didn’t make things difficult for Qiao Xi. She went too far and wrongly accused me of poisoning Ah Zheng. I’m Ah Zheng’s mother. Why would I want to poison him? Qiao Xi beat up my younger brother without any explanation. As an elder sister, can’t I question her?”
Huang Lilan said sorrowfully, “I’ve never asked for anything from Qiao Xi, but as my daughter-in-law, she rushed to the residence of her in-laws so early in the morning to denounce me! How can I not be angry with such a shrewish daughter-in-law?”
Qiao Xi was angered to the point of laughing. This was the time to act!
Old Madam Gu snorted impatiently and was about to reprimand her when Gu Zheng spoke. “My wife has always been weak. How could she hit anyone? Madam Gu, please don’t bully my wife anymore.”. 😉
