Chapter 10



Not only did she want the man to be rich, but she also wanted him to be good-looking. In the end, it caused everything to drag on for this long.

Lu Jiao had twisted the situation and made it sound like it was because she had no good heart and nobody wanted her.

Xie Lan started to cry while her mother’s face became squished together. She clenched her teeth, “Lu Jiao, you dare to ruin your sister-in-law’s reputation. You’re an awful woman. The Xie family does not tolerate women like you. I…”

Before she could finish, someone else rushed into the courtyard. The moment this person entered, she exploded.

“I see how it is, you witch. You are here bullying my daughter again! You think the Lu family is all dead? You good for nothing old woman. Every day, you torture your daughter-in-law just because you’re bored. For my daughter to marry into your family is her misfortune! Why should she be tortured and taken advantage of by you? Today, I am going to teach you a lesson so you know that the Lu family isn’t to be screwed with.”

This person lunged on top of Lady Ruan. She had a tall and thin build – an entire head taller than Lady Ruan. Therefore, Lady Ruan had no chance to counterattack. Even if she did, she wouldn’t have won the fight. There was nothing she could do but be pulled by the collar and dragged across the ground.

Everyone in the courtyard was stunned by this scene. Everyone forgot how to respond.

Lu Jiao identified this woman who was teaching Lady Ruan a lesson. That was her mother by title, Lady Tian. Lady Tian was the opposite of Lu Jiao. She was thin and tall with long limbs. It was obvious that she was an efficient woman.

However, from her memories, Lu Jiao knew that this mother truly loved the original host.

The original host was often sick as a child and had to take a lot of medicine. If she was born into any other family, she would’ve been tossed out given that she was a girl and unhealthy. Lady Tian, however, was willing to spend the money to raise her daughter. This was why the original host got chubby. It was due to all the medicine she had as a child.

In Lu Jiao’s previous life, her parents married through an arranged marriage. They didn’t love her very much after they havd her. Afterward, her parents each found their own true love and sent Lu Jiao to a boarding school. Therefore, Lu Jiao was often jealous of girls who were spoiled by their parents.

She never expected that in her transmigrated life, she would get this woman as her mother. Lu Jiao instantly decided to love Lady Tian the best way she knew how in the future.

In the courtyard, Lady Ruan got dragged around by a full circle. By then, she finally reacted and started to scream, “Help, help!”

Xie Lan responded and started to shout anxiously, “Someone, save my mother. This old woman dares to bully my mother on the Xie family turf. She’s taking it too far.”

This sentence effectively garnered the Xie villagers’ attention.

Lu Jiao saw that the villagers were about to attack so she walked over to stop Lady Tian.

“Mother, let my mother-in-law go.”

She didn’t feel bad for Lady Ruan. If she died from this, then she deserved it. She was worried that the villagers would avenge her and hurt Lady Tian.

Hearing her daughter’s words, Lady Tian finally lets go of Lady Yuan. By now, Lady Yuan was dusty in the face and looked like a beggar. She was born ugly and after such commotion, she almost didn’t look human.

Xie Lan rushed to her side to help, “Mother, are you okay?”

Lady Yuan sat down on the ground and started to howl, “What sins have my Xie family committed to have welcomed such an unpleasant woman into the family? My perfectly good son was dragged down by her and now I just got beat up. Where’s the justice?”

Her cry infuriated Lady Tian. She wanted to go up and beat up this old demon again. She had stopped considering they were in-laws a long time ago. She dragged her around was just to teach her a lesson. But she had cursed her daughter. What was the point in being nice now?

Lady Tian was about to go up to her when Lu Jiao dragged her back. She looked at Lady Yuan and said slowly, “Mother, why don’t we go to the judges if you want to talk justice. Let’s ask the county magistrate, what kind of parents would move out their son when their son gets injured? The son that was forced out of the family was also an honorable scholar, the examiner who ranked number one in all of the Qinghe Prefecture. I believe the country magistrate likely still remembers my husband. Why don’t we pay a visit to the county magistrate at his office.”

Lu Jiao’s words silenced the crowd. Everyone stared at her as if they no longer recognized her.

This woman felt different from before. Before, she would roll around in the mud and curse at people with all sorts of ugly words.

She now did not curse and spoke logic.

Her words somehow imposed power over these people. Nobody in the crowd dared to underestimate her after they heard her speak.

Especially when she said she wanted to go to the county magistrate for justice. There wasn’t a single trace of fear on her face. The commoners didn’t fight against those with titles. Wasn’t this woman afraid?

Lady Yuan was successfully scared off. Of course, she remembered that when her son was chosen as the scholar, the county magistrate personally visited. Back then, he had gifted the family 100 taels of gold. If the county magistrate found out that they shunned their son after he got hurt, they may get punished.

Lady Yuan was scared and didn’t dare to argue now.

Just then, outside the trellis, the Village Leader, Xie Caigui, and Xie Yunjin’s father, Xie Laogen, rushed over.

When they heard Lu Jiao’s words, their faces turned dark.

Xie Fugui didn’t want to take this as far as Lady Ruan. If that happens, their entire village’s reputation may be tarnished.

Xie Laogen wanted that even less. Because he knew that they were wrong when they moved their son out.

When those two people entered the courtyard, they shouted at Lady Yuan instead.

“What are you yelling for? Is there an end to this?”

Xie Laogen helped his wife up, “Let’s go back. Why are you causing a scene.”

Lady Yuan didn’t dare to speak anymore and got up to leave.

Before Xie Laogen left, he looked over to Lu Jiao with a troubled face, “Third daughter-in-law, I didn’t want this to happen this way. But this is the condition of the family and there’s nothing I can do.”

Lu Jiao faked a smile and looked at Xie Laogen, “As long as you don’t regret this one day.”

Behind them, Xie Fugui glanced around and became angry, “What are you all fighting for? You must have too much time. Everyone, get back!”

Everyone was already stunned by what Lu Jiao had to say and so they no longer dared to kick Lu Jiao out. Instead, they all left.

Xie Erzhu however, didn’t leave. While others were distracted, he went to check up on Xie Yunjin.

For their family to pull this stunt and not even end see their third brother, third brother must feel terrible. He needed to go and comfort him.

The crowd left very quickly. However, Shen Xiu, who stood at the back, didn’t want to give up. She originally wanted to use the Xie family to kick out Lu Jiao. That way, she could marry third brother Xie.

Though third brother Xie was now disabled, she didn’t mind. She would take care of him for the rest of his life. Who knew that she would end up failing. Shen Xie left in a rage.

Inside the courtyard, Lu Jiao looked over at the right time and saw Shen Xiu grit her teeth.

Her eyes narrowed and she carefully calculated the situation. She was almost certain that what happened today was set up by Shen Xiu, who influenced that idiotic Xie Lan to act out.

Lu Jiao couldn’t help but snicker. That woman truly loved Xie Yunjin. Despite the fact that he was paralyzed, she still wanted to marry him. However, since Shen Xiu tried to drag down Lu Jiao, Lu Jiao was not going to forgive her easily.

Just she waits!
