Yao Chenggu couldn't help but curse the Yao Clan in his heart for being so troublesome. They didn't care about the situation at all. Wasn't this causing trouble for their own family?
Not to mention anything else, they had offended the Family Qin. That Qin guy didn't flare up in front of them, but he had been in the government for so many years. Did he have the temperament to suffer losses?
What if the Family Qin people found an excuse to leave the three of them to fend for themselves in the desert?
There was no food or water in the desert. How could the three of them have a chance to survive? When the time came, the Family Qin could just say to Pang Xiao that it was an "accident" and cover up the matter. Their deaths would be in vain!
When Yao Chenggu thought of this, he could accept any loss at the moment. Moreover, he knew his daughter's stubborn temperament best. The Family Qin's daughter was astute and astute. She wouldn't cause trouble for no reason. It was most likely his daughter who found the excuse first. After scolding people for so long, they probably wouldn't suffer any losses.
Yao Chenggu smiled and cupped his hands. "Don't be angry. This is your magnanimity. I know my own daughter. Her temper is a bit impatient. Once her temper flares up, she doesn't choose her words carefully. In fact, she's not a bad person. Just as Yi Yi had said earlier, there must be some kind of misunderstanding. We're all family. It's inevitable that tongues will clash with teeth. Please forgive her for being insensible. "
The Sun Clan's daughter pursed her lips. Seeing that Qin Huaiyuan and Yao Chenggu were about to be the peacemakers, she couldn't suppress the anger in her heart. Even if Cao Yuqing kept pinching her hand, hinting at her not to speak, she still snorted and said.
"Even if there's a misunderstanding, it's fine if it's cleared up. However, your mother used a charcoal stove to hit people and even set our Sister Yi's clothes on fire. She was lucky that the family reacted in time and put out the fire. If she didn't react in time and burned Sister Yi, the matter wouldn't be settled so easily."
Qin Huaiyuan glanced back at the Sun Clan.
Out of consideration for the overall situation, Qin Huaiyuan's Family Qin and Qin Huaiyuan had to stick together to survive. Once they had a falling out with Pang Xiao's family, Xiyue would no longer be a safe place for Qin Huaiyuan's family to hide. Therefore, Qin Huaiyuan had always been polite on the surface.
How could he not know his daughter's grievances? But for the sake of the bigger picture, he could only suppress it for the time being. At the same time, according to his actions, the most clumsy way to deal with this kind of matter was to make a scene in person.
However, what the Sun Clan had said was exactly what he had been suppressing in his heart. He knew the Sun Clan very well. The fact that she didn't go up to the Yao Clan and start a fight was already the limit of her patience. She was, after all, his wife, and she was devoted to Sister Yi, so he couldn't be too harsh on her.
Moreover, he also wanted to see how far the Yao Clan could go without falling out with them.
Yao Chenggu was a shrewd person. When he saw the Sun Clan's words and Qin Huaiyuan's silence, he understood the crux of the matter.
He was thinking about how to answer when Madam Ma spoke first, "I was wondering why Sister Yi's dress became like this! So it was you who did it! "
Madam Ma was so angry that she wanted to kick the Yao Clan a few times. "She's your own family, but you did this to her. What are you thinking?!"
At this time, the Yao Clan was in a situation where her father didn't love her and her mother didn't love her. Yao Chenggu and Madam Ma refused to speak up for her. She had been wronged for a long time, so she blamed all of this on Qin Yining. She wasn't four or five years old. She was already in her forties or fifties, yet she was treated like this by her parents in front of so many outsiders. She was beaten and scolded as she wished. Her own son didn't want to be close to her and even sent her to the countryside to suffer.
The Yao Clan roared angrily, "That little whore mistreated me and refused to let my son take a concubine. I burned her to death. You can arrest me and bring me to the officials! My son is the current dynasty's Wang Ye. Let's see what you can do to me! "
"You! Unfilial daughter! Look at what you're saying, is this something a human should be saying? I might as well beat you to death today and be done with it! "
"Grandmother, please calm down!"
The scene was fine, but it became noisy again.
Qin Huaiyuan frowned. He really had nothing to say to Qin Yining's mother-in-law.
"What's going on?!" At this time, Pang Xiao quickly ran in from the side door. When he saw the mess in the courtyard, he frowned.
He first looked at Qin Yining questioningly, but Qin Yining was busy pulling Madam Ma away.
Pang Xiao didn't notice Qin Yining's strange behavior and was slightly relieved. He quickly went to support Madam Ma and comforted her, "Grandmother, please calm down. Let's talk nicely."
"Talk nicely? Why don't you ask your troublesome mother what she wants to do?! "Madam Ma's face was pale with anger. She pointed at the Yao Clan.
Yao Clan members were hiding behind Yao Chenggu. When they saw Pang Xiao come back, they screamed, "If you are my son, you should divorce this disorderly woman!"
"What are you talking about?! Why would I divorce my wife? When did I have the intention to divorce her? "
Pang Xiao was in a terrible fix. He quickly grabbed Qin Yining's hand and squeezed it. Then, he bowed deeply to his sobbing mother-in-law and father-in-law.
"Father-in-law, mother-in-law, your son-in-law didn't mean that. There must be some misunderstanding. Please give me some time to solve it. "
Qin Huaiyuan originally wanted to keep the peace. It didn't matter if he was wronged on the surface. If he wanted to vent his anger for his daughter, he had thousands of ways.
Every way was better than arguing in front of them.
Therefore, Qin Huaiyuan very considerately nodded and said reasonably, "Go."
He turned around and motioned to the Sun Clan, Cao Yuqing, and the others, "Let's go."
Sun Clan was still unconvinced, but Qin Huaiyuan looked at her with gentle eyes. His expression was so firm that she couldn't refute. Moreover, Cao Yuqing and Qin Yining had been hinting at her not to disobey.
Sun Clan could only purse her lips and suppress her anger. She grabbed Qin Yining's hand and said, "Okay, since Wang Ye said that you want to solve it, then I hope you can solve it well. Sister Yi, come with me! "
Sun Clan wouldn't leave their daughter here to compromise.
Qin Yining turned around and looked at Pang Xiao. The two of them looked at each other. Pang Xiao's eyes were full of concern and gentleness. At this moment, Qin Yining's cloak was open from where she was standing. Pang Xiao saw several burn marks on her skirt, and then he saw a pile of hand stoves, charcoal fire, and the messy cloak in the distance. His eyebrows knitted into a knot.
Pang Xiao watched Qin Yining's back disappear into the distance. Only then did he look back at his surroundings.
The servants in the front yard were in awe of Pang Xiao. When they saw his knife-sharp gaze, the servants all bowed and hurriedly retreated.
Pang Xiao ordered Huzi with a heavy expression, "Ask two people to take the luggage to the guest courtyard for now."
"Got it." Huzi obeyed the order and went to do it.
Pang Xiao turned around and said to Yao Clan, whose makeup was ruined from crying, "Old Madame, please." He held Ma Clan's hand and said softly, "Grandmother, don't be angry. It's not worth it to hurt your body. Grandson will take you to the guest courtyard first."
Yao Chenggu, who was ignored, was very unhappy. However, he couldn't show it in front of his wife. It would make him look like he was "competing for favor" with his wife.
Yao Chenggu followed behind Pang Xiao and Ma Clan with his hands behind his back.
Yao Clan was left behind. She looked at her son's cold back and couldn't do anything. As a son, he wasn't close to his mother. If this got out, she would be too ashamed to face others! The servants of Qin Manor all looked at her strangely. It was as if they were looking at a dirty rat.
Yao Clan snorted coldly. She had no choice but to follow.
Pang Xiao personally took them to the guest courtyard.
Huzi did things properly. Not only did he put the luggage in place, but he also arranged for a maid to serve them. As soon as they entered, the brazier in the room was already lit. A gust of hot air mixed with the elegant fragrance of fruit rushed to their faces. There was also freshly brewed tea in the teapot on the square table.
Yao Chenggu heaved a sigh of relief. He sat down at the square table and poured himself a cup of hot tea.
Pang Xiao helped Ma Clan to sit on the soft couch by the window. He turned around and served her hot tea. "Grandmother, have a sip of hot tea to calm down."
Ma Clan shook her head and pushed away the teacup he brought her in despair. Her voice was full of bitterness and sadness.
"That ignorant girl bullied Yi Yi like that. In the past, when we were in the prince's mansion, she bullied us behind closed doors. I told her off several times. I stood up for Sister Yi every time, but in the end, we were the ones who wronged her. To put it bluntly, I was also selfish. I stood up for Yi Yi because I couldn't stand your mother's way of doing things. Secondly, I also hoped that Yi Yi Yi would give me face …
"Look what happened now. Your mother, that wastrel, came to bully Sister Yi as soon as she returned. She even scolded Sister Yi for committing the crime of lust and jealousy in front of Sister Yi's in-laws. She even called her a whore and a pervert!
"Such ugly words, if it was a delicate person, I'm afraid they would have already killed themselves to prove their innocence. Fortunately, Sister Yi's parents were born in noble families. They were so well-mannered that they didn't fall out with us. But whose child isn't a treasure? Sister Yi's parents were really good to be insulted like that in front of others. If it were me, I would have killed her with a knife! "
As Madam Ma spoke, she began to sob. Her words were incoherent, but Pang Xiao was able to piece together the whole story.
He turned around and glanced at the Yao Clan.
Yao shi immediately went forward to hold Pang Xiao's hand, "Son, your maternal grandmother is old and muddle-headed. She is very easily swayed and can't control people. Just a few words of praise and her heart will soften. You didn't see the face of your wastrel daughter-in-law today! I'm her mother-in-law. Can't I reprimand her a little? "
Pang Xiao withdrew his hand and took two steps back under the astonished gaze of the Yao Clan.
"Old Madam, you must be tired from the journey. Rest early." He then said to Ma Clan, "Grandmother, don't be angry. I will handle this matter well. As for who is right and who is wrong, the people I left behind will naturally see everything. I will go and ask them. If we are in the wrong, I will definitely ask for Father-in-law and Mother-in-law's forgiveness. I will try my best not to alienate our families. "
Ma Clan nodded and patted Pang Xiao's shoulder sympathetically.
