The Evil Mother-in-law: Torment Children, Work Hard, Be Rich! Chapter 296: Incident at Tianxiang Building

Xian Xian returned to the Tianxiang Building, feeling quite gloomy.

Mother Mo asked, "What’s wrong?"

Xian Xian replied, "I didn’t expect that country bumpkin Gu Dashu is actually very good to his wife."

Mother Mo sneered, "Let tell you, Xian Xian, there are no good n in this world. Gu Dashu is good to his wife because your bait is not attractive enough."

Xian Xian said nothing.

Mother Mo continued, "I’ve already partnered with Mr. Tong’s business, no matter what kind of person Gu Dashu is, you better not provoke him."

Xian Xian said, "Got it."

But she was still reluctant deep down.

That country girl Yue Er had such thick powder on her face, such bright red rouge, such glaring hairpins, a full image of a nouveau riche country bumpkin. What did Gu Dashu see in her?

Were it not for Tong Huaqiong’s warning, she really wanted to continue testing Gu Dashu’s true heart, to see how long it could last.

"Xian Xian, the Second Young Master Chen is here," soone called out.

Xian Xian’s face turned cold instantly and she said, "I’m not feeling well today, ask the Second Young Master Chen to leave."

But Second Young Master Chen wouldn’t listen and ca straight upstairs.

Xian Xian was forced to greet him.

"We agreed you would take down Gu Dashu, why didn’t you do it last night?" Second Young Master Chen accused as soon as he arrived.

Xian Xian’s anger flared, and she sneered, "Do you think everyone is as shaless as you?"

Mother Mo ca up to diate.

Even though she has reached an agreent with Tong Huaqiong, it doesn’t an she’s given up on earning money from the Second Young Master Chen.

After all, a guest is a guest.

The face of the Second Young Master Chen darkened, his young master’s temper flared up, and he cursed imdiately, "I’m shaless? You’re a re courtesan talking about sha? Who do you think you’re fooling with your pretensions? You want to redeem you? Can you even get through the doors of my house?"

Xian Xian retorted, "Who’s clinging to all the ti? Do you think I care about being redeed by you? What kind of reputable family is the Chen Family anyway? Is there anything clean about it? Where isn’t it filthy other than the pastries in your shop? If you think this place is dirty, then don’t co in. Don’t think I don’t know what you’re up to. You thought a few words and I’d fall for your plans against Gu Dashu and the Taohua Dessert Shop? Do you think I’m as dumb as you? I agreed to you on purpose just to see how truly stupid you are!"

"You think you’re standing here because of your abilities? Try taking off the na of the Second Young Master of Jin Fengxiang, who would recognize you? You can’t win against your big brother, so you use all sorts of underhanded ans to drag Taohua Dessert Shop into trouble, and you still think you’re so wise and heroic. Talking to you makes nauseous. You tried to entice with the status of a concubine in the Chen Family, but I’d rather serve eight hundred guests a day in a brothel than be your concubine."

The Second Young Master Chen was raised pampered and spoiled, never once had he been scolded like this.

And by a woman he looked down upon, a courtesan at that.

The Second Young Master Chen, humiliated and furious, lifted his foot and kicked Xian Xian.

Xian Xian couldn’t dodge in ti, and took a solid kick to the chest, a mouthful of tallic blood spewing out.

"Xian Xian." Mother Mo was terrified.

The Second Young Master Chen was in a fit of rage, one kick wasn’t enough, he wanted to continue kicking.

Xian Xian, enduring intense pain, grabbed a vase from the table and smashed it over the Second Young Master Chen’s head with a crash.

The Second Young Master Chen swayed and then collapsed.

When Mother Mo turned around, she was nearly scared out of her wits seeing the Second Young Master Chen lying on the ground, blood flowing from his head.

"What do we do now?" Mother Mo was beside herself with fear, bending down to shake the Second Young Master Chen, who lay still like a dead dog.

"Xian Xian, you’ve killed soone." Mother Mo said to Xian Xian in a trembling voice.

Xian Xian at that mont seed to awaken from a long dream.

She had killed soone!

She had killed soone!

"Second Young Master! Second Young Master!" The Second Young Master Chen’s servant heard the commotion and ran upstairs. Seeing the Second Young Master Chen covered in blood, he fell to the ground in shock, shouting, "Murder at the Tianxiang Building! Murder at the Tianxiang Building!"

The servant’s cries imdiately drew everyone out from their rooms in the Tianxiang Building.

The Second Young Master Chen and Xian Xian were surrounded by a circle of people.

Soon, all the businesses in Pearl Alley knew that Xian Xian from the Tianxiang Building had killed the Second Young Master Chen.

Tong Huaqiong learned of the news the next morning.

"... Mother, I heard Xian Xian killed soone. And it’s Second Young Master Chen." Liu Yueer, after hearing a bellyful of gossip while eating breakfast outside, rushed to tell Tong Huaqiong, unable to suppress her excitent.

The Second Young Master Chen deserved it, trying to plot against her husband and Taohua Dessert Shop.

Xian Xian deserved it too, she would go to jail for murder and would no longer seduce her husband.

Liu Yueer almost felt like setting off firecrackers in celebration.

"Did she really kill soone?" Tong Huaqiong couldn’t believe it.

"Of course, the Mother Mo and Xian Xian from the Tianxiang Building have already been taken away, the others are locked inside being questioned one by one," Liu Yueer said.

She specially passed by the Tianxiang Building to see it clearly, each corner of the building had a Governnt Official stationed there.

Tong Huaqiong still couldn’t believe Xian Xian had killed the Second Young Master Chen.

In the mories from Tong Dajiao’s past life, she didn’t know what Xian Xian and Mother Mo encountered at this point in ti.

But she knew that later there were tis when Xian Xian and Mother Mo had rescued Man Er from escaping the Zheng Family.

When Man Er beca an Imperial Concubine, the Tianxiang Building moved to the Capital, transforming into the most luxurious restaurant there.

Nominally operating as a dining establishnt, it actually served to relay information for Man Er.

This life, Mother Mo and Xian Xian were caught up in a murder scandal at this point, not because of anything other than Tong Huaqiong’s interference accelerating the developnt of events.

Tong Huaqiong thought about it for a while and went out to gather news, with Gu Dashu and Liu Yueer following behind.

She felt that Liu Yueer was just overreacting to things, and the information she heard might not be true.

Indeed, the information outside differed from what Liu Yueer had heard.

It was attempted murder by Xian Xian.

The Second Young Master Chen had already been taken back to the Chen Family, and by the ti Tong Huaqiong ca out of the inn, the Second Young Master Chen had already opened his eyes.

Upon hearing this, Tong Huaqiong felt slightly relieved.

For so reason, Tong Huaqiong didn’t want anything bad to happen to Mother Mo or for Xian Xian to fall because of this.

After all, they were considered lifesavers to Man Er from her previous life.

As long as the Second Young Master Chen wasn’t dead, Mother Mo and Xian Xian’s lives wouldn’t be endangered.

"So the Second Young Master Chen didn’t die." Liu Yueer said, a bit disappointed.

"Even if he’s not dead, it’s enough to keep the Chen Family running around in circles," Gu Dashu said.

Gu Dashu hated the Second Young Master Chen for scheming against him, though his feelings towards Xian Xian were complicated.

He originally hated Xian Xian so much yesterday that he was grinding his teeth, but upon hearing she had killed soone, he felt a surge of sympathy.

Of course, in front of Liu Yueer, Gu Dashu didn’t dare show sympathy for Xian Xian, so he cursed at the Second Young Master Chen instead.

Tong Huaqiong, with Gu Dashu and Liu Yueer, went to the Taohua Dessert Shop.

Gu Taohua and Chen Sufen were already busy in the shop.

Even Man Er and Yaozu were in the shop.

Tong Huaqiong beca dissatisfied with Gu Dashu; these past few days, Gu Dashu and Liu Yueer had been quarreling, which had led to neglecting their business.

"This has nothing to do with you, hurry to the pesticide shop," Tong Huaqiong said, unhappy, ushering Gu Dashu out.

At this mont, Hong Xiaoxi ran in and said, "Boss, it’s not good, Governnt Officials are coming to arrest soone."

After speaking, he gave Gu Dashu a glance.

"Clarify, who are they arresting?" Tong Huaqiong asked.

Hong Xiaoxi replied, "Brother Dashi."
