The daily life of a space tycoon raising children, doting on his husband, and farming.

Chapter 142 A Smash
Shang Wan glanced at the group of servants and shook her head with a tsk tsk. "You all need to have some self-awareness. With so many people blocking the entrance to their pharmacy, how can they do business? And this is supposed to be a wealthy family. Don't you even understand this basic principle?"

The servants looked at each other, wondering if the third young mistress was different from before.

Shang Wan didn't want to waste her breath on a stranger, so she turned to go into the pharmacy, but then heard Madam Lu yell at her men, "Grab her and slap her!"

Shangwan: Huh?

Is this person sick?
Hit her? Seriously?
Clearly, Mrs. Lu was serious.

Her gaze was cold and sharp; she was determined to teach Shang Wan a lesson in public and let her know that she could not be disobeyed.

This kind of thing has happened before.

While still in the Lu family mansion, Madam Lu often punished the original owner by making her kneel and copy Buddhist scriptures for her. She would even deliberately punish the original owner when Lu Chengjing went to the county school. There was not a single person who could plead for the original owner.

The original owner often knelt so hard that he couldn't get up, and his knees were covered in bruises.

Every time this happened, Li would come to ask the original owner for help, making the original owner drag her aching knees to help her with household chores, without giving the original owner a chance to refuse.

The original owner of this body was truly pitiful, and was thoroughly dealt with by this mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

But that was all in the past. If it were Shang Wan now, and Madam Lu dared to make her kneel and copy Buddhist scriptures, she would dare to feed Madam Lu the entire Buddhist scripture! Not a single word would be missed!
The maids and servants dared not disobey Madam Lu's orders and stepped forward to arrest Shang Wan.

Shang Wan didn't even lift her eyelids, kicking each of them a full ten feet away.

Silence, deathly silence.

Shang Wan coldly swept her gaze over the remaining maids and servants, her murderous look causing them to shrink back, too afraid to step forward.

Madam Lu's face turned pale and then red. Shang Wan actually dared to attack her people. This was outrageous!

Seeing that the servants were all terrified of Shang Wan, cowering and not daring to step forward, a surge of anger rushed to his head.

"Shang family, you're really something!"

"Thank you for the compliment." Shang Wan's lips curved slightly, revealing a harmless smile. "If this lady wants to teach me a lesson next time, she might as well do it herself. They..."

Shang Wan pointed to the two old women lying on the ground in the distance, "They both took the blame for you. Shouldn't you, as their mistress, show some appreciation?"

"I don't need you to teach me how to do things!" Madam Lu snorted coldly, then turned and left.

Li hurriedly followed, turning back to look at Shang Wan halfway there. Meeting Shang Wan's cold gaze, she immediately turned her head back and hurriedly followed Madam Lu into the carriage.

Shang Wan pursed her lips, thinking that this mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were going to be difficult to deal with.

That's it?

This was just a minor incident, and Shang Wan didn't take it to heart at all, not even mentioning it when she went home.

Unexpectedly, the Lu family found them in the village the next day.

The person who arrived was a manager surnamed Liu. On the first day of Shang Wan's transmigration, the large bump on her forehead was his handiwork.

Zhang Er brought the man over. He was working in the fields when he heard that Steward Liu was looking for Lu Xiucai's family. He thought Liu was a relative of the Lu family, so he kindly brought the man over.

Just as Steward Liu stood still, before he could even open his mouth, Xiao Huan grabbed a broom from the side and swung it at him.

"Who gave you permission to come here? Get out!"

She could never forget the ugly face of this person who drove them out of the mansion, not even allowing them to pack a single piece of clothing.

They're bullying their master! Bah!

Caught off guard, Manager Liu was hit squarely by the broom, and immediately cried out in pain, clutching his head and running around on the ground.

When Yuanyuan saw Aunt Xiaohuan beating the bad guys, she quickly waved her little arms and directed Xiaohui to join in the fun.

A gray wolf suddenly darted out from the side, startling Steward Liu who cried out, "Mother!"

He tripped and fell flat on his face in front of everyone. At Chu Xu's insistence, Shang Wan helped him move the cushion closer to the door so he could see the commotion outside with just a peek.

Seeing Manager Liu fall flat on his face in front of everyone, he immediately burst into laughter, all the gloom from his days of recuperation vanished, and his cat-like eyes sparkled.

Zhang Er stared, still in the position of having only one leg extended, completely dumbfounded. Wasn't this person a relative of the Lu family? Or could he be an enemy?

Xiao Huan didn't miss the chance to take advantage of Manager Liu's fall. She grabbed a broom and gave him a good beating, a beating even a mother wouldn't do so easily.

Manager Liu was beaten severely, howling miserably as he repeatedly called out "Third Young Master" and begged Lu Chengjing for help.

What is Lu Chengjing doing right now?

He and Shang Wan were watching the show from the sidelines. He had no interest in listening to what Steward Liu wanted to say.

Shang Wan then recounted the argument that had taken place at the entrance of the pharmacy to him.

Lu Chengjing's eyes were indifferent as he grasped Shang Wan's hand and gently squeezed it.

“I kicked her with my leg.” Shang Wanhui grasped his hand, raising an eyebrow. “If I really beat up Madam Lu, what would you do?”

This is a tricky question, similar to "If I and your mother fell into the water at the same time, which one would you save?"

Lu Chengjing pursed his lips and said slowly, "My wife is not an unreasonable person. If that's really the case, then she must have provoked you first. My wife should do as she pleases and doesn't need to worry about me."

"So understanding?" Shang Wan tilted her head to look at him. "Aren't you afraid of people gossiping about you because of the debt of gratitude you owe us for raising us?"

"What's so scary about gossip being told by others?" Lu Chengjing said. "She gave birth to me, not my wife. Besides, we've been separated from the clan, and apart from blood ties, all other relationships have been severed. I wouldn't want my wife to suffer because of me."

Shang Wan reached out and touched his chest. "That's what you say, but doesn't it hurt here?"

Lu Chengjing's eyebrows twitched slightly, but he remained silent, pursing his lips.

Shang Wan stared at him for a moment, then said softly, "Actually, if you plead for her, I can give her some leeway."

Lu Chengjing suddenly looked up and refused without thinking, "No need."

His tone was somewhat urgent, and he gripped Shang Wan's hand slightly tighter, repeating, "No need."

Shang Wan lowered her eyes, looking directly into the depths of his eyes, not missing the barely concealed panic. She asked, "Why?"

Lu Chengjing remained unfazed, his gaze sincere: "I will handle it well and won't make things difficult for you."

Shang Wan withdrew her hand from Lu Chengjing's, patted his head instead, and didn't say anything more.

Lu Chengjing finally felt relieved, and before he knew it, a layer of cold sweat had broken out on his back.

He felt that if he hadn't answered something well, his wife would have dumped him without hesitation.

Business Evening News: Entrapment.

Lu Chengjing: I worry every day that my wife won't want me anymore T^T.

"Get lost! I'll beat you every time you come near me!" Xiao Huan chased Manager Liu half a mile away with a broom, not even giving him a chance to speak.

Steward Liu slunk out of the village and returned to the Lu residence to complain.

We won't go into the specifics of how the complaint was filed.

After learning that Steward Liu had come to the door, Shi Tou complained that Xiao Huan had dealt with Steward Liu on her own without informing him.

He had been badly beaten by Manager Liu's men, so he had to fight back.

Shi Tou begged Xiao Huan, "You've vented your anger this time. Next time Manager Liu comes, don't lay a hand on him, I'll beat him up."

"Whoever grabs it first keeps it." Xiao Huan chopped the bone with a loud thud.

As Shi Tou laid the bones on the cutting board, he said, "Sis, I'll call you sis, okay? Just leave him to me! I'll beat the first half, and you can beat the second half."
