Chapter 328: Chapter 328: Retaliate

Chiang Songtao pinched with considerable force, and Ho Laidi was awakened by the pain.

As soon as she came to, her first reaction was still very vague, thinking that Chiang Xiao was still by her side. She swung her arm abruptly, aiming a heavy slap at the person next to her.

She also cursed out loud, "Chiang Xiao you lowlife! How dare you pinch me!"

"Smack!"

A crisp sound echoed as Chiang Songtao’s face was turned to one side from the slap.

An eerie silence suddenly descended upon the courtyard.

Chiang Xiao, seeing the red palm mark on Chiang Songtao’s face, couldn’t hold back her laughter and had to bury her face in her palms, her shoulders shaking.

Oh my, what a show!

She had just heard what Chiang Songtao said and couldn’t help wanting to slap him herself; now that someone else had done it for her, she was of course very happy.

As Ho Laidi saw the person in front of her clearly, she froze in shock.

"Dad, I...I didn’t mean it, I thought it was that dead lowlife Chiang Xiao..."

Chiang Songhai had been harboring pent-up frustration, and her constant calling "lowlife" triggered his anger. He clenched his fists and angrily interrupted her, "Elder sister-in-law! I do not wish to hear you call Little a lowlife again! Qingzhu is my daughter, and Little is Qingzhu’s daughter; Little has the Chiang Family’s blood in her as well! Whether you acknowledge it or not! She is no different from Caijiao and Dongdong!"

"Pah! She’s a thing without even knowing who her dad is, and you think she can compare to our family’s Dongdong?" Ho Laidi suddenly leaped up.

Confronting Chiang Xiao’s somewhat mocking gaze, Ho Laidi suddenly remembered the beating she’d received from Chiang Xiao and the threat to cut off her tongue. She shivered and found herself unable to speak the rest of her words.

Chiang Xiao had quite the devilish spirit!

Chiang Songhai was already dizzy with anger at her words, "How is Little not comparable to Dongdong? In my eyes, Little is even stronger than Dongdong! She is good to us, she helps earn money to support the family, she does well in her studies, and she takes first place every year. What can Dongdong do? He can only eat!"

That’s right! All he can do is eat! Like a pig!

Chiang Xiao silently cheered for her grandfather in her heart.

That’s how you should fire back!

Having just received a heavy slap, Chiang Songtao was filled with rage, and it wasn’t proper to lash out at his wife. Hearing what Chiang Songhai said, he bellowed loudly, "Have you gone mad, Second? What are you talking about? How can a girl compare to the grandsons of the Chiang Family who should carry on the family line? I’m giving her, Chiang Xiao, too much face!"

Chiang Xiao sneered, "Great-grandfather, if there were no women, how would you have been born? Even your prized grandson came from his mother. If you look down on women, you might as well start by suffocating your own wife, how about that? She was a girl once too."

Chiang Songtao was so furious he saw spots, "You, you, you lowlife! I’m talking to your grandfather; do you have the right to butt in?"

"This is my house," Chiang Xiao retorted.

"You! Second! Are you just going to stand there and watch her infuriate me?" It was the first time Chiang Songtao had been talked back to like this by Chiang Xiao, and he was nearly bursting with rage.

"Big brother, I think what Little said is not wrong either. What’s wrong with girls? I am fond of Qingzhu, I am fond of Little—what if they are girls?"

Chiang Songhai had never spoken these words before, but he had been holding it in for far too long.

"What’s wrong with being a girl?" Chiang Songtao glared at him, "Without a son, you’re ending your family line! Otherwise, why did you adopt Qingjiang? Isn’t it because you needed someone to carry on the ancestral rites?"

"When I adopted Qingjiang back then, it was because you and Dad insisted on it!" Chiang Songhai said through clenched teeth.
