Springtime Farming: A Happy Wife At Home
Chapter 1810

Chapter 1810: Locking the Door Chapter 1810: Locking the Door Editor: Henyee Translations “Heh, why would I know?

Are you here to interrogate me?” Eldest Old Master, Second Old Master, and their wives stood in stunned silence, exchanging bewildered glances.

They couldn’t fathom why their mother was once again directing her anger towards them.

First Madam Fan and Second Mrs.

Fan, positioned nearby with lowered heads, inwardly sneered.

Was there even a need to ask?

Couldn’t they see who was standing right here?

Had she ever refrained from meddling?

“No, Mother, please don’t misunderstand!

We came specifically to discuss how to handle this situation,” Eldest Old Master stammered.

“Yes!” Second Old Master chimed in.

Old Lady Fan’s sneer deepened.

“They’re already at our doorstep.

What do you propose?

They want to accuse the Fan family without evidence.

Do they think we’re pushovers?

Chase them away, quickly!” Initially, the two Old Masters harbored some hope, but now, they were convinced their mother must have orchestrated the assault on Jia Heming the previous night.

And their biological sister was likely involved too.

They felt utterly powerless.

This wasn’t the time for reckless confrontation with Lord Shao.

They needed to strategize, consider all options and escape routes before making a move.

How could they act so impulsively?

Jia Heming was a clerk from the state government office, a member of the government!

Everyone in Anze Province knew he was Lord Shao’s right-hand man.

Striking him would be a direct affront to Lord Shao.

Was Lord Shao someone to trifle with?

The individuals assaulted the previous night and the hired hooligans were apprehended.

Today, the hooligans faced severe punishment, and now, someone had come to the Fan familyaEUR| The two brothers sighed inwardly, knowing better than to criticize their mother.

They often joked that their biological sister could provoke their mother with just ten words.

“Mother, fret not.

We’ll handle the negotiations.

Without evidence, it’s not easy to tarnish our family’s name,” Eldest Old Master assured.

“Hmph, then get on with it!” Old Lady Fan snapped.

The brothers felt a slight relief.

If their mother spoke so confidently, the other party likely lacked evidence.

They trusted her judgment.

Though she could be domineering, she wouldn’t leave herself vulnerable to accusations.

As long as there was no evidence, they should be fine.

Accompanied by the butler, guards, and servants, the brothers swung the door open with a resounding bang, fixing stern gazes on Zheng Sangge and his cohorts.

The air grew taut, charged with tension.

“Constable Zheng, what’s the meaning of this?” Eldest Old Master’s voice cut through the silence, his demeanor icy.

Zheng Sangge met his gaze squarely.

“Heh!” he scoffed, a faint smile playing on his lips.

“Are you truly unaware, or are you feigning ignorance?” “Don’t play dumb!” Second Old Master retorted sharply.

“Constable Zheng, refrain from baseless accusations.

Evidence is required for any claims!” “Indeed.

Lord Shao is known for his integrity and clear judgment.

It’s inconceivable he would resort to tyranny,” Eldest Old Master added.

Zheng Sangge chuckled.

“Our Lord embodies fairness and clarity, which sometimes invites the misconception that he’s easily manipulated.

It’s best you come clean now.

Refusal may not bode well.” “Preposterous!” Second Old Master snapped.

“We won’t confess to a crime we didn’t commit.

Just because Scribe Jia was assaulted doesn’t implicate our family.

Without evidence, you have no grounds to target us!”
