Chapter 246: Don’t Even Think Of Scamming Me
The gossiping crowd around immediately perked up their ears, wanting to hear more clearly.
Their eyes lit up with excitement, saying “Quick, quick… tell us more!”
Keke puffed out his chest, looking like a big boss.
“Don’t get upset yet, believe it or not, aren’t your in-laws always unhappy that you’ve only given birth to two daughters and have injured your body, making you unable to have more children?
They are desperately hoping to have a grandson. They dare not say anything directly because of your status, but they are clear that he has kept an outside mistress, and they even helped him conceal it from you. One of the outside mistresses is your man’s cousin.”
Commandery Princess Ning’s expression became ferocious, and her grip on Wu Shanshan involuntarily tightened.
Wu Shanshan cried out in pain, “Mom, you’re hurting me, let go.”
Wu Anyu inwardly thought it was bad, and wanted to comfort her mother but was pushed away by Commandery Princess Ning.
At this moment, she couldn’t care about anything else. All that was in her mind was that her husband had an outside mistress and had a son with her.
“Where are they? Where are they?!”
Those red-glowing eyes and twisted face truly made her look like a vengeful spirit.
Keke sneered, “Why should a bird tell you? Go find out yourself.”
“You lied to me.”
Keke was unmoved, “Don’t you already have the answer in your heart about whether I lied to you? If you want to know, go investigate yourself. What’s our relationship that I should tell you?”
Commandery Princess Ning, with a displeased expression, left with her two daughters.
Xie Chong did not stop them.
They were all female relatives, and he would not lay a hand on female relatives.
It wasn’t out of pity for them, but rather it would tarnish his reputation and be detrimental to managing the army.
However, he could make a move elsewhere.
This just gave him a reason to deal with Wu Hao.
Wu Hao, who was ostensibly appointed by the Emperor to monitor him, was actually someone from the First Prince’s faction.
Due to their positions, they were naturally at odds.
After leaving with his daughter, Xie Chong said to her.
“Daddy will get revenge for you.”
Qin Wanwan nodded, “Mhmm, Wanwan believes Daddy!”
He acted on his promise of revenge. That very night, while Wu Hao was resting at the home of one of his outside mistresses, several masked men in black burst in, stuffed him into a sack, and beat him severely.
They also sent a message to Commandery Princess Ning, who had questioned her in-laws after returning from the banquet and had a huge argument with them.
Commandery Princess Ning hastily brought her people to that courtyard and saw her husband being helped up by a crying woman, with a boy of about ten years old calling him “Daddy” beside them.
At that moment, Commandery Princess Ning’s eyes completely turned red with rage. With a roar, she completely abandoned her image and lunged forward to curse and fight.
At that time, Xie Chong was holding Qin Wanwan, watching the scene unfold from the rooftop.
Xie Chong said to her, “See, Daddy got revenge for you. And from now on, we won’t have to investigate; they’ll eat each other alive and won’t have time to worry about us.”
Commandery Princess Ning was not a good person, and Wu Hao was no better.
Wasn’t this a dog-eat-dog situation?
Qin Wanwan hugged his neck and kissed him, “Daddy is the best.”
The corner of Xie Chong’s mouth turned up, and he swept his indifferent gaze down below, happening to see Ning Hao slap Commandery Princess Ning.
“You dare hit me?”
Commandery Princess Ning looked incredulously.
Wu Hao, though bruised and swollen, was still protecting his precious son.
“If you can’t bear children, you can’t let our Wu family end without an heir, can you?”
Wu Anyu, who had followed Commandery Princess Ning, looked resentfully at the boy being protected by their own father.
“Father, aren’t Shan Shan and I your daughters too?”
Wu Hao dismissed her, “You two girls will belong to other families sooner or later.”
Commandery Princess Ning screamed, “Wu Hao, I’ll fight you to the death!”
The scene below became even more chaotic, but Xie Chong left with his daughter.
Under the moonlight, the shadows of the father and daughter stretched long.
Xie Chong educated his daughter, “If you grow up and find someone you like, and he dares to treat your Daddy like this, just go chop him!”
“Of course, if you don’t find someone you like, Daddy will support you for the rest of your life.”
His daughter was a little Qilin, and if he supported her his whole life without her marrying, it didn’t seem like a problem.
A little Qilin could live for a very long time, couldn’t she?
Qin Wanwan was still young and didn’t understand adult love at all.
But she nodded seriously, “Okay, if a bad guy bullies Wanwan, Daddy will back me up.”
Xie Chong: “Your performance today was also very good. However, you need to have a few more people around you, lest you be bullied in the future.”
Xue Hua hadn’t gone to find him today; it was the Dark Guard he had stationed by Wanwan’s side who had gone to find him.
“Daddy, can I ride on your neck?”
The little one cast all her worries aside, wanting to play.
She had seen other children happily riding on their daddies’ necks before and was curious.
Xie Chong didn’t hesitate and easily lifted the little milk bun onto his neck.
Qin Wanwan held his hands, laughing happily.
“It’s so high, Daddy, hahaha…”
The moon at the border pass was big and round, and the sky was clear and cloudless. The cool moonlight falling on them seemed to soften considerably.
…………
Supervisor Wu was beaten after being put in a sack, and his face was scratched by his wife. The next day, he directly took leave and did not go to work.
However, Xie Chong did not let him off.
He directly took a few subordinates and swaggered to the Wu family, under the guise of visiting Supervisor Wu’s illness.
When they arrived, Commandery Princess Ning was still causing trouble.
In front of so many people, the Wu family was completely disgraced.
Old Master Wu was also thoroughly enraged and directly slapped Commandery Princess Ning.
“Until when will you continue to make a scene? This is the Wu family. My son did not marry into the Princess’s mansion. Even though you are a Commandery Princess, once married, you should obey the principle of following your husband.
Since you have married into the Wu family, it is your responsibility to expand the family’s lineage. You cannot be unable to give birth to a boy for the family and then forbid my son from having children with someone else. You are violating the seven grounds for divorce!”
“Besides, which man doesn’t have three wives and four concubines? My son has already compromised and been wronged because you couldn’t bring a grandson into the mansion. What more are you making a scene about?!”
Commandery Princess Ning spoke like a madwoman, “I am a Commandery Princess, an imperial princess personally enfeoffed by the Emperor. How can I be compared to those lowly women?”
Wu Hao, with his already very unsightly black face, said, “Guards, take the Commandery Princess away.”
Wu Anyu suddenly rushed forward, crying dramatically, and threw herself at Xie Chong.
“General, General Xie, please save my mother.”
Xie Chong skillfully dodged, and Wu Anyu lunged past him, crashing into a Military General behind him who hadn’t had time to dodge.
That Military General had just finished training and hadn’t bathed for several days, and his body reeked of sweat.
The smell entered Wu Anyu’s nostrils, and she almost threw up.
Most crucially, the Military General pushed Wu Anyu away, looking at her as if she were a plague.
Wu Anyu’s face turned ashen, and she was furious.
She looked resentfully at Xie Chong, as if questioning why he had dodged.
Xie Chong: “Dream on! I won’t be scammed!”
He only allows his good daughter to be scammed.
