“You child, the Ximen family is now the number one family in the imperial capital with a solid foundation. You are just a little girl, don’t do such risky things.” Lady Zhou was still worried as she gave Nangong Mufeng a kick under the table. “Stop eating, why aren’t you persuading Qian’er? This revenge should have been done by you as a son. What’s the matter with you pushing it to your niece?”

Nangong Mufeng wasn’t angry even after being kicked. “Mother, let me give you a piece of advice. Leave this matter to Qian’er. She’s more capable than your son.”

“Nonsense.” Lady Zhou glared at Nangong Mufeng, then grabbed Su Qian’s hand and said seriously, “1 am already very happy that you’re back. You just need to take care of the children at home. Leave the rest to your grandfather and uncle.”

“Grandmother, you’re right. The Ximen family has a solid foundation. It won’t be easy to shake them. That’s why I want to help grandfather and uncle,” Su Qian advised gently.

Back then, the Nangong family was the first, and the Ximen family was the second. They could never surpass the Nangong family. It was only after the Ximen family used despicable methods to injure Su Qian’s grandfather that the Ximen family overshadowed the Nangong family. Later on, they even oppressed the second and third branches several times, helping the second and third branches to bully the first branch.

How could she tolerate such humiliation?

Lady Zhou was very stubborn. She said sternly with a serious expression on her face, “It’s useless even if you say anything today. You were able to bring down the Su family this time because of the help of the Qian Yao Pavilion. However, Qian Yao Pavilion will not help you every time. Moreover, the Ximen family is not something that the Qian Yao Pavilion can shake. Don’t get involved in muddy water.”

“Grandmother, Qian Yao Pavilion will help me.” Su Qian said frankly, “Because I’m Gong Nan. I opened Qian Yao Pavilion, and even Liu Qi is my subordinate.” “What?” Lady Zhou and Lady Wen widened their eyes in shock.

“What Qian’er said is true. That Gong Nan is Nangong. She’s retaliating against the Su family in our name.” Nangong Lie had just said this sentence when his back was slapped by Lady Zhou.

“You old man, you actually know?!” Lady Zhou’s eyes were wide open. She put her hands on her waist like a hag and said angrily, “You didn’t even tell me about such a big thing. 1 think you’ve been sick for the past few years. I’ve given you too much face. You’ve forgotten your name!”

Nangong Lie’s back was sore from the slap and he looked wronged, “Qian’er told me not to say it. Moreover, Mufeng also knows about this. Why did you hit me and not him?”

“Father? How could you betray me!” Nangong Mufeng was stunned. He didn’t think that he would be tricked by his father just like that. Soon, he was hit on the head.

Lady Zhou hit the father and then the son. Only then did she vent her anger. “This is a lesson for the two of you. If you dare to hide it from me again in the future, I will definitely beat you up until you can’t get out of bed for three days.”

“Mother, it’s a good thing that Qian’er has her own power. Don’t be angry.” Lady Wen hurriedly came out to deal with her. Then, she chuckled and said, “I was wondering why that Ancestor Su was so angry that he spat out blood and died. 1 think that Qian’er, you told him that you were Gong Nan in the end, right?”

“Aunt is right.” Su Qian nodded with a smile.

“Child, if you want to deal with the Su family, you should look for me. It is not easy for a woman to open a medicinal workshop…” Lady Zhou touched Su Qian’s face with heartache.

“Great-grandmother, don’t worry. Mother has Uncle Gu’s help, so the opening of the medicine workshop is very smooth!” Su Qingqing said suddenly as she nibbled on a drumstick..
