Chapter 257: Chapter 257: Real Loss

Madam Tang grabbed Tang Chuxia’s ear, truly resenting that she wasn’t as tough as steel, and was ready to discipline her right away.

Tang Chuxia didn’t have time to dodge and was lectured by Madam Tang while having her ear tugged, pitiful beyond words.

Gu Beihuai, standing by, was simply enjoying the spectacle.

He just let Tang Chuxia mess around.

Tang Jianbing covered his face, unable to watch, since Madam Tang was so furious that she wanted to take it out on Tang Chuxia.

"Aren’t you going to protect her a bit?" Gu Beihuai asked Tang Jianbing.

Tang Jianbing waved his hand, "Don’t joke with me, my mom’s really angry this time, no one can stop her!"

There was an unwritten rule in the Tang family, which was that no one could bully Tang Chuxia, including themselves, but when Madam Tang decided to discipline Tang Chuxia, it was best for them all to keep their mouths shut and not get involved, or they would be the ones crying.

Gu Beihuai also seemed to remember this and said helplessly, "Should I go over and give a hand?"

Tang Jianbing stopped him, warning him not to be impulsive, as one wrong move could lead to regret.

Gu Beihuai shrugged helplessly, "Should I go back now then?"

Tang Jianbing still disagreed, if he left now, Madam Tang would probably continue disciplining Tang Chuxia.

Nothing seemed to be allowed. Fortunately, Mrs. Gu arrived just in time, quickly pulled Madam Tang away, and saved Tang Chuxia’s ear.

"You dead girl, go home, see if I don’t break your legs!"

To carry a big man down the street! After drinking, no less, and on such a dark night. Do you know how worried the family was?

The more Madam Tang thought about it, the angrier she became.

Her four sons never made her as angry as her daughter did, almost costing her face.

Tang Chuxia didn’t dare make a sound and could only put on a smiling face. When she saw Gu Beihuai also nodding along, she felt even more frustrated.

This was a day when only Tang Chuxia suffered.

After everyone calmed Madam Tang down, they returned home, and the smell of alcohol on Tang Chuxia had also dissipated quite a bit, almost undetectable. But Madam Tang didn’t let her off.

"Go brush your teeth, wash your face, and then drink a bowl of vinegar!"

With Madam Tang’s face cold, what could Tang Chuxia do?

She obediently followed the instructions, though she grimaced while drinking the vinegar.

Licorice, who poured the vinegar for her, had to hold back from laughing so hard her face turned red. She was really afraid that if she laughed out loud, Tang Chuxia would annihilate her without a trace.

"If you want to laugh, laugh!" Tang Chuxia sighed and chugged down the mature vinegar in one go.

It was beyond her understanding that the solution to drunkenness was actually over-fermented alcohol, which is mature vinegar.

But now that she was already sober, Tang Chuxia felt crushed and wilted after the episode.

"Sister Xiaxia, you’re really too brave!" Licorice gave her a thumbs up.

In Licorice’s view, it wasn’t uncommon for women to carry men. The women in his village could do it during military training, but they probably couldn’t pick up a tall man like Beihuai and walk off with him, especially when Tang Chuxia was so petite.

Now that was something they found hard to accept.

Tang Chuxia let out another sigh, "Don’t idolize your sister. I’m just a legend!"

Licorice laughed again, and the third sister-in-law joined in, "You talk as if your legend almost didn’t get destroyed by the aunt!"

Tang Chuxia made a face, "Don’t put it that way. I did gain something out of this!"

The third sister-in-law gestured for her to go on.

"Like, I managed to conquer that guy. Isn’t that a gain?"

Tang Chuxia was all smug, but the third sister-in-law shook her head, "What on earth goes on in that head of yours? It’s just a man. Besides affecting your intelligence, what else can he do to help you?"

Tang Chuxia’s expression squeezed together.

"Third sister-in-law, please don’t say that in front of my brother. I’m afraid Third Brother will show you how fast he can draw his sword!"

Third sister-in-law’s face turned red. Tang Chuxia was confused; was there some ambiguity in her words?

But someone from the main house was calling her, giving her no time to think.

As soon as Tang Chuxia left, third sister-in-law instructed licorice, "Don’t spread what happened today!"

Licorice obediently nodded. She was only familiar with the Tang Family and was always quiet outside. Even if she wanted to gossip, she wouldn’t know who to talk to.

Third sister-in-law patted licorice on the shoulder and hurried after Tang Chuxia to the main house.

Gu Beihuai was still explaining to Madam Tang, and as soon as Tang Chuxia returned, Madam Tang’s about-to-be-pressed-down anger flared up again.

"Get married!"

Madam Tang shouted, and Mrs. Gu nodded along.

"Yes, since you two are no longer innocent, you should get married!"

Gu Beihuai was extremely frustrated, "Mom, you have to speak with evidence. How am I not innocent? As an honest family man, how am I not innocent?"

Mrs. Gu was very embarrassed. She tried to cover Gu Beihuai’s mouth with her hand, but to no avail; her grown son was out of her control, easily holding her wrist to prevent her from silencing him.

"Aunt Lan, let me tell you, although Tang Chuxia kissed me and wanted to sleep with me, we are just talking nonsense, nothing has been done!"

Madam Tang heard this and thought, how could this be?

They kissed?

Madam Tang took a deep breath and then shouted at Tang Chuxia, "Tang Chuxia, you good-for-nothing, get out here for me!"

Tang Chuxia sensed things were not going well and turned to run, only to be caught by the collar by her younger brother. "Little sister, don’t run. Mom’s looking for you!"

Tang Chuxia was infuriated with Tang Jianbing, lashing out wildly before embarrassingly smiling toward Madam Tang, "Mom, you have to let me explain. There’s really nothing between Gu Beihuai and me!"

Madam Tang pointed at Tang Chuxia, her finger shaking more exaggeratedly than Parkinson’s. "Explain, explain what? I’ve noticed that you’ve been quite abnormal recently, no longer getting into fights. Turns out you’re the one spoiling people’s innocence!"

Madam Tang chased after her.

Tang Chuxia could only run to avoid being hit.

The yard was once again thrown into chaos.

Gu Beihuai rubbed his face, unable to maintain a smile.

He thought the best thing to do at that moment was to keep quiet, otherwise Tang Chuxia would hold a grudge against him.

But...

Could he hold back?

Seeing the normally spoiled Tang Chuxia now in such an embarrassing flight, he couldn’t help but feel an inexplicable excitement.

So Gu Beihuai made a decision and shouted directly to Madam Tang, "Aunt Lan, Xiaxia has already said that she has no feelings for me. Kissing is just kissing, and she even said after sleeping with me that she would kick me out!"

Madam Tang’s anger seemed to skyrocket to a terrifying degree.

Madam Tang looked around and finally took off her own shoes.

This was once a measure used against her four sons, but now it was directed at Tang Chuxia.

"Tang Chuxia, you’re done for! You’re really done for!"

Madam Tang muttered to herself, chasing after Tang Chuxia with undiminished speed.

Meanwhile, Gu Beihuai, who watched the drama unfold, got a bit too carried away, amused on the side until he was caught by the nape of the neck by his own destiny - Mrs. Gu.

"You little wretch are quite nasty, aren’t you? Instead of cherishing your own wife, you’re trying to ruin her?"
