Chapter 295 Don't Leave

Granny Zhu smiled insincerely: "Oh, Sister-in-law Liang, what does this have to do with us? If anyone is to blame, it's our Second Miss. She was just careless and bumped into your daughter-in-law. She's the real culprit."

"exactly!"

Aunt Liang's eyes were cold and sharp, wise and not to be trifled with. "The truth is not for you to decide. Even if I'm confused, I won't believe you so easily. Since you two are servants, act like servants. Shut your mouths and say less."

Both Granny Zhu and Cuixiang choked at the same time.

When Aunt Liang swept over them with her seemingly all-seeing eyes, Granny Zhu and Cui Xiang felt as if she had seen through everything. The two of them, who had been eager to take advantage of the moment when they helped Zeng Xiaoyan up to make a move and pretend to bump into her "accidentally" again, subconsciously stopped.

Aunt Liang stayed by Zeng Xiaoyan's side without leaving for a moment, comforting her gently. When she looked up and saw Qiao'er standing there wiping away tears and sobbing, Aunt Liang couldn't help but soften her heart.

This child is so precocious and sensible that it breaks my heart.

She must have been terrified by the chaos just now.

But surprisingly, he didn't cling to anyone, crying and begging for comfort; instead, he just cried by himself.

Aunt Liang opened her mouth and called softly, "Qiao'er, come here to your third grandmother."

Qiao'er looked up and hummed in response. Just as she was about to go over, Cuixiang suddenly reached out and grabbed Qiao'er's arm. She smiled at Aunt Liang and Zeng Xiaoyan and said, "You're all busy, so we won't cause any trouble. Our lady said she misses the Second Miss and Miss Qiao'er. The Second Miss said she'll go by herself later. We can take Miss Qiao'er with us now."

Granny Zhu also came up to help, "Yes, Madam is still waiting for us, let's take Miss Qiao away first!"

Qiao'er burst into tears, crying, "Let me go! Let me go!"

"No rules!"

Zeng Xiaoyan panicked again and instinctively tried to get up to stop them, shouting, "Let go of Qiao'er! How dare you!"

"Xiao Yan! Sit still and don't rush!"

Aunt Liang was furious. She glared at Zeng Xiaoyan and stood up to stop Cuixiang and Granny Zhu: "What does the Zeng family mean? What does Madam Zeng mean? How old are you, adults? Making things difficult for a little girl who is not even four years old? Your Zeng family and your Madam have no shame!"

Even though Cuixiang and Granny Zhu were arrogant and conceited, thinking themselves superior and looking down on Aunt Liang and the others, they couldn't help but blush with embarrassment after hearing these words.

Granny Zhu forced a long face and pretended not to know: "What are you talking about? Miss Qiao'er is our lady's junior. What's wrong with our lady wanting to meet her junior?"

Cuixiang immediately started trembling again, "That's right! We're definitely taking her away today!"

Without saying a word, the two women started shoving and pushing Liang Sanshen, insisting on taking Qiao'er away.

Qiao'er struggled and cried incessantly. Cuixiang and Granny Zhu scolded and shouted, and Zeng Xiaoyan also cursed anxiously. While Liang Sanshen was desperately trying to stop Cuixiang and Granny Zhu, she turned her head and glared at Zeng Xiaoyan in the midst of her busy work: "You better behave yourself and don't move around! Qiao'er will be fine with me here!"

A series of pains came from her lower abdomen. Zeng Xiaoyan groaned and covered her face with her hand. Her face turned pale and she couldn't help but panic.

She took a deep breath, closed her eyes, and turned her head away.

With my mother-in-law here, and this being Liangjia Village, the two servants from the Zeng family can't cause any trouble. Don't worry, don't worry.
When Cuixiang, Granny Zhu, and Aunt Liang finally made their way to the courtyard, Xu Zhichun, Zeng Xiaojuan, Granny Qin Qing, Muxiang, Aunt Zhu'er and her husband, and a few villagers who had come along to help finally arrived.

"Mother! Mother!"

Qiao'er burst into tears, forcefully breaking free from Cuixiang and running towards Zeng Xiaojuan. Cuixiang and Granny Zhu couldn't help but feel a chill run down their spines when they saw Xu Zhichun and the others approaching with murderous intent.

Granny Zhu forced a smile: "Second Miss, you've come at the perfect time. We'll take Miss Qiao back first, and you can go later. Otherwise, Madam will get impatient and unhappy, and wouldn't that make you seem unfilial?"

Zeng Xiaojuan trembled with anger.

These people, these people, how dare they!
The villagers were also shocked and looked at each other in disbelief.

"Are all city dwellers this shameless?"

"The servants from wealthy families are really scoundrels. No wonder people call them 'troublesome servants,' they really are troublesome."

"The reason there are such unruly servants is because there are such unruly masters. They are raised like their masters."

"makes sense."

"."

Taking advantage of the chaos at the scene, Xu Zhichun quickly pulled Aunt Liang aside and whispered something to her.

Aunt Liang nodded without hesitation.

She was already furious, and the only reason she didn't explode was because she suppressed her anger.

Her younger daughter-in-law was pregnant and had such a fiery temper, so even if she was furious, she had to suppress it. Otherwise, if she lost her temper, her younger daughter-in-law's anger would explode, and what would happen to the baby in her womb?
Xu Zhichun didn't mind playing the villain, but it wouldn't be proper without Aunt Liang.

Aunt Liang sneered, "Since your Zeng family dared to harm my daughter-in-law, this matter is not over. Everyone, please help me catch them and tie them up. I will go and talk to the Zeng family about this later!"

Xu Zhichun, Granny Qin Qing, and Aunt Zhu'er took the lead in agreeing, and the others subconsciously followed suit, those who wanted to arrest people arrested people, and those who wanted to take ropes took ropes.

Cuixiang and Granny Zhu panicked. They couldn't escape, and at first they desperately shouted for the coachman, Old Zhao, to come and help.

Unexpectedly, there was still one who had escaped the net. With just one word from Aunt Liang, two or three men from the village ran over and caught Old Zhao as well.

Granny Zhu craned her neck and shouted sternly at Zeng Xiaojuan, "Is Second Miss just going to stand by and watch?! When Madam asks about this in the future, I won't speak up for you! Let's see how you explain yourself then!"

Cuixiang also shouted and threatened, "Second Miss, why don't you tell them to stop right now! We're here representing Madam. If you arrest us, it's like you're not respecting Madam at all. Do you want to be an unfilial daughter? This is outrageous!"

"Shut up, all of you!" Aunt Liang shouted angrily. "You'd better save yourselves the trouble. Even if the King of Heaven himself came today, he wouldn't be able to save you. You harmed my daughter-in-law, and I'm going to settle this score with you! Don't drag unrelated people into this. I'll see how powerful your wife is; I'll meet her for myself."

Granny Qin Qing crumpled up the two tattered cloths she was carrying and stuffed them into the mouths of the two men, and then the world was quiet again.

Granny Zhu, Cuixiang, and Old Zhao were all tied up and locked in an empty room.

Yang Ming, Yang Xiaoan, Liang Mingliang, and others returned one after another, and Doctor Jiang from Quanshan Village was also quickly invited over.

Many villagers were watching the spectacle, both inside and outside the house.

Zeng Xiaoyan lay on Qiao'er's bed, her lower abdomen still aching intermittently. Although her face was no longer as deathly pale as before, it was still pale and unsightly.

Liang Mingliang sat on the edge of the bed, holding her hand tightly. His palms were cold and trembling slightly. He looked at her, feeling anxious but unable to speak.
