The Eldest Daughter of a Rural Family
Chapter 1089 - 248: Tooth Pulling Technique_2

Chapter 1089: Chapter 248: Tooth Pulling Technique_2

The onlookers were already stunned; could it get any crazier than this!? And, was this something a general’s wife should do!? Not at all virtuous and gentle! But why did it feel so damn satisfying to watch!?

Jiang Dahai glanced at Second Madam Zheng, also gasped sharply as a tooth flew out, blood and spit spattering on the ground. Upon seeing Pei Qin, his gaze immediately changed. He had only known Madam Yuanyang to be a formidable character, one who planted sweet potatoes and brewed soy sauce, but had not expected her to be so fierce, so vicious!

Then, looking at Mo Heng, he was comforting Pei Qin, with eyes full of tenderness and satisfaction, caring for her hand, and his heart twitched. The handsome General Mo actually liked such a woman!?

The onlookers were also simultaneously suspicious and intrigued, looking at General Mo’s demeanor, he really did seem to prefer a wild and fierce woman!

Mo Heng ordered directly, "Take them away!"

Several soldiers immediately escorted the people away, and Jiang Dahai saluted the pair, "I will certainly uncover the truth and restore justice to the general!"

"Much obliged," Mo Heng nodded.

Old Lady Zheng didn’t dare say another word, her face ashen with defeat.

Elder Master Zheng’s expression was even more despondent, supporting Old Lady Zheng as they both headed to the Five-City Soldiers and Horses Troop. They were clearly settling a personal vendetta, using this to shame them and harm them! They could not be branded as spies of the Rong Clan; otherwise, the entire Zheng family would be finished!

At the main entrance, Mo Heng commanded the gate guard, "From now on, neither the Zheng family nor dogs are allowed in the General Mansion!"

The mansion soldiers immediately complied.

Pei Qin poked him, "Don’t insult dogs!"

Mo Heng corrected himself, "Dogs may enter."

The mansion soldiers had all tensed up internally.

The crowd of onlookers didn’t know what to say.

Mo Heng pulled Pei Qin along, "Let’s eat."

Pei Qin was already hungry, having only snuck in two pastries amid the busy afternoon.

No one mentioned Pei Qin’s inability to conceive again; Pei Yuan, Pei Wendong, Chang Yonglin, and everyone in the household kept silent, never bringing it up, only saying the Zheng family deserved a lesson, that Zheng Yuehan was lowly by choice, and Pei Qin did well to beat her!

"Turns out, the Zheng family has been scheming all this time, initially we thought they were targeting Wendong, but they aimed higher — as if they could!" Madam Zhao said; she hadn’t seen it with her eyes but even just hearing it made her feel it was not enough retribution.

"They’re not spies of the Rong Clan. After an interrogation, they’ll be released with just a loss of face," Pei Yuan considered herself not to be ruthless or cold-blooded, but the idea that the Zheng family had been scheming from the start to have her elder sister die to replace her as the general’s wife filled her with unrestrained revulsion.

"This pot will keep them busy for a while!" Chang Yonglin chuckled; spies of the Rong Clan? Although it was false, maligning an Imperial Court official was true! An esteemed Tiance general being openly insulted; surely the Emperor would find it face-losing and get angry, right!?

Jiujiu was eavesdropping from the side, her little face puffed up in anger. Someone dared to bully her mother and try to take her father away! Unacceptable!

Happy and Xixi might not understand, but they too sensed there were bad people around.

"Sister! Are there bad people bullying Mother?" Xixi asked, pulling at Jiujiu with wide eyes.

Jiujiu nodded, indignantly replying, "Yeah! A family of bad people bullied Mother, and a woman wants to take our father away!"

Xixi frowned unhappily, "Even though we have two godfathers and one father, I don’t like others trying to snatch our father!" Multiple fathers didn’t mean hers could be taken!

"I only have one father, and if anyone tries to take him, I’ll beat them up!" Happy declared, her little face angry.

Jiujiu’s eyes darted around, resolving to avenge her mother, "We’ll teach that woman who wants to take our father and bully our mother a lesson!"

The two little ones eagerly nodded in agreement, waiting for her command.

Jiujiu led them into her and Xixi’s room, where the three Little Radishes began to plot.

The Zheng Yuehan family, brought to the Five-City Soldiers and Horses Troop, was already paralyzed with fear before any punishment, crying out their innocence.

Zheng Yuehan even attempted to implicate Pei Qin, saying it was Pei Qin who had wronged her.

Angered, Eldest Madam Zheng and Elder Master Zheng came to the Five-City Soldiers and Horses Troop to redeem their family members, pleading and arguing, but they were not released.

All of them were proclaiming their innocence, yet they had acted like spies, Old Lady Zheng and Second Madam Zheng, as well as Second Old Master Zheng, refused to admit it, but Zheng Yuehan definitely needed thorough interrogation!

To say Zheng Yuehan wasn’t a spy of the Rong Clan, then why did she disregard the prohibition signs outside the training ground and run onto the field?

Eldest Madam Zheng realized then that Pei Qin, who could manage her siblings and amass such wealth on her own, form connections with the Shen family, plant sweet potatoes, brew soy sauce, and even marry Mo Heng, was certainly not a simple person, even in her illness. The second branch had secured a decent marriage alliance but foolishly schemed against Pei Qin, and now they had been outwitted in return!
