Chapter 249: Chapter 249: A Premonition
Father Tang collapsed on the ground howling, and Grandma put away the whip and kicked him.
"Useless thing!"
Father Tang cried.
Since marrying Madam Tang, it’s the first time in all these years he’s tasted the feeling of being whipped by his mother-in-law.
He finally understood why so many people were afraid of this mother-in-law.
It hurts!
It really hurts!
Tang Chuxia shook her head, squatting in front of Father Tang: "Dad, you deserve it, did you really think Mom doesn’t have anyone to back her up?"
Now it’s Father Tang who has no one to back him.
Grandma probably had been holding in her anger ever since Father Tang forcibly brought the child to the Tang Family right after Madam Tang gave birth. This fury had been hidden for twenty years, finally exploding today. The fact he wasn’t beaten to death is already a mercy.
Father Tang raised his hand to smack Tang Chuxia, utterly furious.
Being seen by his daughter in such a humiliating situation, how could he uphold his authority as a father in the future?
But just as he raised his hand, Grandma’s whip lashed at his wrist.
A wail immediately rang out.
Tang Chuxia clicked her tongue.
See, this is what happens when you’re not honest.
Grandma opened the door and said to the group of people at the doorway, "Call the doctor!"
Outside were Father Tang’s colleagues. They were hesitant to come in to check on Father Tang’s condition, afraid he might get angry and commit suicide in shame. Eventually, they pushed Father Tang’s boss in to check on him as a representative.
Tang Chuxia didn’t want to stay, scared she might become her dad’s scapegoat for his anger. Before leaving, she told Father Tang’s boss, "Uncle, my dad’s fine, just a bit squeamish!"
Tang Chuxia heard Father Tang wailing, being able to cry so loudly, surely it couldn’t be too serious.
The boss waved her off, telling her to head back first, and he’d handle the aftermath.
Grandma stood impatiently at the door, calling out to Tang Chuxia, who just had to follow her and run off.
The boss called in two people to help Father Tang up and closed the office door. Father Tang was crying like a dog.
He was really feeling miserable.
The boss, who had a good relationship with Father Tang, somewhat guessed what had happened and didn’t know how to comfort him, only able to say, "What can you do? Just endure it!"
Father Tang: ... cried even louder!
Being a son-in-law isn’t easy, endure it!
Tang Chuxia, linking arms with Grandma and leaving, looked full of admiration.
Grandma wields a whip exceedingly well.
"I have a sense of measure and wouldn’t hurt your dad to the bone!" Grandma explained, to which Tang Chuxia nodded repeatedly: "I noticed, only some stuffing flew out, not even breaking the skin, Grandma, you’re being merciful!"
Grandma snorted coldly: "For whose sake? Isn’t it all for you kids?"
Tang Chuxia obediently agreed.
But when they returned home, they saw that both the Big Uncle and the Young Uncle were there, looking complicated, especially when they saw the whip in Grandma’s hand.
"Mom, how old are you now? If you want to use force just let us know, we’ll go whip that bastard to death!"
Big Uncle spoke first, stepping forward to take the whip from Grandma’s hand, really terrified his old mother might get so worked up she’d lash out at him.
Young Uncle also pushed up his glasses, "Big Brother’s right, that Tang Xiuyuan is no good, let us brothers deal with him, Mom what are you doing? What if you get exhausted?"
Grandma didn’t appreciate their concern: "You guys? You only know how to talk without doing anything, I’m telling you, Tang Xiuyuan knows exactly this about you, that’s why he’s so arrogant!"
Young Uncle was speechless.
Grandma seeing they were about to lecture her, shouted: "Anyway, I’ve already hit him, you figure it out, at worst pay some compensation!"
Big Uncle shouted loudly: "Compensation? Let him try asking for money!"
Madam Tang chimed in: "Yeah, if Tang Xiuyuan dares to ask for money, I’ll just kill him!"
Grandma chided Madam Tang in frustration: "If you had this spirit earlier, you wouldn’t have ended up like this, getting bullied and not saying a word."
Madam Tang dry laughed.
Actually, Wen Wenqing hadn’t gained any advantage under her and had been cleaned up by her several times, but in Grandma’s eyes, her daughter was just too easily bullied.
Eventually, it was Grandfather who diplomatically shifted the topic, saying many things Grandma loved hearing, coaxing her into a better mood, eventually announcing she needed to go take a nap.
Once Grandma left, everyone in the house breathed a sigh of relief.
Especially Madam Tang, pinching Tang Chuxia’s ear: "You little girl, didn’t you know to intervene when your grandma started? And went along with her, weren’t you afraid your grandma might get all worked up and hurt herself?"
Tang Chuxia cried out in pain, but Madam Tang wouldn’t let go.
"Mom, it hurts, you know Grandma’s temper, how could I dare stop her, if I didn’t insist on staying there, Grandma would’ve thought of chasing me out and going directly at Dad!"
Hearing this, Madam Tang was worried her elderly mother might suffer, but Tang Chuxia assured her that Father Tang didn’t dare to resist and got whipped.
"Serves Tang Xiuyuan right!" Big Uncle said, while Young Uncle disagreed: "A mere thrashing won’t do, he needs to face consequences!"
If Father Tang was really afraid of losing face, he wouldn’t behave like this.
"Little Sis, divorce him, I’ll find you a better man!"
Young Uncle said startlingly, which annoyed Madam Tang: "Do I really have to get married?"
Young Uncle was taken aback, "Can you really not get married?"
Madam Tang ignored him.
Tang Chuxia held onto Madam Tang’s arm: "Mom, Grandpa said he’ll deal with Dad, he’ll surely make you feel better!"
Madam Tang sighed, "It’s truly unfilial of me to have Dad worrying at his age!"
"You don’t have to let Grandpa intervene, I’ll tell you something, don’t get worked up!"
Tang Chuxia cautiously began, and then saw Madam Tang’s expression change instantly.
If someone else said this, maybe it’d just be to tease or ease the atmosphere, but evidently not in Tang Chuxia’s case.
Madam Tang knew her daughter all too well, and had a bad feeling.
Sure enough, when Tang Chuxia mentioned calling Third Brother, Madam Tang really wanted to twist her ear.
Calling anyone else would have been fine, calling Third Brother was surely stirring things up.
"I had no choice, the situation was so severe, if I didn’t tell Third Brother, and he found out later, just imagine how angry he’d be!"
It wasn’t Tang Chuxia being dramatic, this was the truth.
Everyone feared Third Brother.
Even Big Uncle and Young Uncle advised Madam Tang: "Xiaxia isn’t wrong, it’s good for Sanwa to know, but you might want to prepare some bruise ointment?"
Not blaming Young Uncle for being worried, Third Brother could genuinely beat Father Tang so he couldn’t get up.
Madam Tang slapped her thigh, poked Tang Chuxia’s forehead, and eventually went to the study to call her third son, to urge him to stay calm.
As Madam Tang went, Tang Chuxia remarked right after: "I have a feeling, Mom won’t be able to handle this!"
