Chapter 171: Han Xiang Gone Crazy

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

They were both sisters, so why should one of them be infinitely tolerant of the other?

Don’t use her youth as an excuse for her insensible behavior.

Why? She’s already a mother, was she still a child to be doted on?

Eldest First Brother Han opened his mouth, wanting to say something, to defend his sister, but nothing could be said in Han Xiang’s defense.

“All-Qiao hasn’t been living well these years. None of you have ever supported her, so don’t disturb her because of Han Xiang’s matter.”

“Since it’s your choice with whom you’re biased, so let me be biased to my wife.”

Throughout his mini-speech, not once did Heng Yi raise his voice or speak harshly to his brothers-in-law.

Heng Yi had already learned how to express his thoughts and opinions clearly through his work in the government office.

He had to make it clear.

“Heng Yi…” Eldest Brother Han wanted to defend himself so that he was not biased.

However, yesterday’s incident speaks for itself.

He thought about how his wife had told him about the moment Han Qiao’s expression soured the moment they left the house last night.

Did they forget the reason why they came to the Heng residence yesterday?

Han Xiang was not sensible, Zhou Anshan was full of schemes, and the Zhou family was scheming.

Why? Weren’t they trying to bite off a piece of meat from Han Qiao’s body?

If Han Qiao was soft-hearted, Han Xiang and the Zhou family would cling to her like leeches.

When the three brothers walked out of the Heng family, their footsteps were weak.

When they turned around, Heng Yi was gone, and Bai Cha was still smiling amiably at them.

However, they could feel how fake it was.

“Please leave,”

Han Qiao wasn’t there and was probably still sleeping, so no one asked them to stay.

They still had to bring the children back.

The children were all reluctant to leave. This big house was so comfortable.

They could read and write, and they could even ride horses and practice martial arts.

The three brothers were silent, but the children were chattering about things that the adults could not see.

Grandpa and Grandma wanted to send them off, but after the three brothers went to deal with Han Xiang’s matter yesterday, Grandpa and Grandma were a little unhappy.

The three brothers had forgotten their priorities.

Did they forget who they were here for yesterday?

It was better if they didn’t see them off. So, they just continued to sleep.

Since Han Xiang was still at the clinic, the three brothers had to take care of her. Eldest Brother Han asked his two younger brothers to send his wife and children back to Xishan Village while he went to the clinic to pick Han Xiang up.

He even pulled the ox cart to the clinic.

However, Han Xiang was nowhere to be seen when they arrived.

“She left yesterday. She left right after you three did.”

Eldest Brother Han stomped his feet in anger.

He didn’t know where to look for Han Xiang or had any clue where she went last night.

The medicine boy continued, “Oh, she left with the man who came with you.

Not long after you left, that man came in. He said that he was his husband.” When Eldest Brother Han heard this, he understood what was going on.

It was Zhou Anshan who came to take Han Xiang home.

He instantly heaved a sigh of relief.

He thanked the medicine boy and drove the ox cart to chase after his family. Second Brother Han and Han Ming also fell silent when they heard the news. For a moment, none of them knew if they should be glad or annoyed. Meanwhile, in the Zhou family, Zhou Anshan carried Han Xiang on his back and walked for a night before finally arriving at the Zhou family house.

Father and Mother Zhou looked at the two of them and were stunned at first. Then, they cried out, “Anshan, Anshan, what’s wrong with you?”

Zhou Anshan silently carried Han Xiang into the house.

Mother Zhou chased after him and continued to ask, “Son, what happened?

Where do you get all these injuries?”

“Mother, can you let me be for a while?” Zhou Anshan asked hoarsely once he placed his wife on the bed.

Han Xiang remained silent.

Mother Zhou looked at the two dirty people and asked, “What’s wrong with the two of you?”

Zhou Anshan was exhausted, “Mother, please go outside first. I’ll tell you later.” H H

Mother Zhou hesitated for a moment, “Then I’ll go boil some hot water for you two.”

“Okay,” Zhou Anshan replied indifferently.

He stared at Han Xiang, who was lying on the bed, and called out softly,

“Ah-Xiang…”

Han Xiang turned a deaf ear and did not move.

“Ah-Xiang, talk to me. Don’t be like this,” Zhou Anshan called out softly.

Han Xiang still ignored him.

It was not until he was clean and his wound was treated that Han Xiang asked softly, “Zhou Anshan, why do you think we’re living like this?”

She was asking Zhou Anshan and herself.

On the way back, she had been wondering why things were turned the way they were.

It was nothing more than greed.

Greed leads to laziness and magnifies the desire to reap without sowing. Han Xiang slowly sat up, “Zhou Anshan, what about the ten taels of silver?

Bring it to me and let me have it!”

“Ah-Xiang, I—”

“You have to give me the ten taels of silver and let’s split with your family.

Zhou Anshan, if you still want to live this life, you have to do as I say. If you don’t want to, then let’s get a divorce. You can keep the children.”

Han Xiang said firmly.

Her appearance had frightened Zhou Anshan.

Zhou Anshan could also tell that Han Xiang was not joking with him.

“Ah-Xiang, what’s wrong?” Zhou Anshan asked softly.

His eyes were filled with worry and fear.

He had just been beaten up by her three brothers yesterday, and he was afraid of being beaten up again.

“I want to work hard. I want to be above everyone else. I want to live a better life than Han Qiao.”

“That’s why you must give back the ten taels of silver to me, not a single copper less.”

Han Xiang’s words were heard by Mother Zhou at the door. She shouted into the room, “You’re delusional!”

Han Xiang moved her gaze to her.

Without saying a word, she slowly got out of bed and pushed Mother Zhou away to the kitchen.

Mother Zhou went up to her and started cursing. However, she saw Han Xiang walking towards her with a kitchen knife in her hand. She was so frightened that she immediately paled, “W-what are you doing?”

“I’ll say it here today. Give me back the ten taels of silver, not a single copper less.”

“If you can’t do it, two people will die in this house today.”

Mother Zhou shouted and asked Eldest Daughter-In-Law Zhou to snatch the kitchen knife and restrain Han Xiang.

Han Xiang did not remain idle. She slashed down with her knife, hard, cutting off her sister-in-law Zhou’s arm.

Eldest-Sister-In-Law Zhou, who was in pain and fear, fainted and even peed her bloomers.

Mother Zhou was so scared that her body went limp, “You… You, you’re crazy!” “Yes, I am crazy. You splashed water at my door and caused me to slip and lose my child. I should have fought you then. It’s my fault for listening to your nonsense and evil intentions.”

Greedy and insatiable.

She was truly stupid and foolish to have listened to her. She had lost her sister who loved her so much.

The Zhou family’s house was filled with wolves, tigers, and leopards. She must be blind to not have realized this sooner.

“Give her the silver!” Father Zhou shouted from the door.

Mother Zhou still wanted to snap back at her husband.

But Father Zhou continued, “Anshan’s wife, put down the knife first. We can talk about this peacefully.”

They didn’t dare to kill Han Xiang. First, they had to pay with their lives.

Second, the Han Clan was getting stronger and stronger. They couldn’t bully and offend her as they pleased.

Moreover, the Zhou family was in the wrong no matter how one looked at it. “Speak peacefully? Sure. If you want Zhou Anshan and me to retire in the future, you give us a share of everything in this family. If you’re not willing to give us anything, that’s fine too. But in the future, I will not give you a single copper for your retirement.”

Father Zhou was so angry that he almost vomited blood.

Did he raise his son for nothing? He built a house for him and married him off. If his son didn’t give anything in the end, especially in his old age, then everything he had sacrificed would be for naught.

“Han Xiang, don’t go too far,” Father Zhou said darkly..
