“Second Aunt-in-law, eat more. There’s so much food, isn’t it enough for you?” Qiao Mei said.

Wasn’t this saying that she was a busybody! That even so much food could not stop her from talking!

At this moment, Qiao Mei suddenly understood how to get along with Liu Fen. She had thought that as long as she tolerated Liu Fen for a couple of days, she would be free after Liu Fen went home. However, that was not the case in reality. She had to be ruthless to people like Liu Fen and let them see what she was capable of. Only then would such a person avoid her and not meddle in her business.

Liu Fen also realized that Qiao Mei was not someone to be trifled with. She had looked so obedient and cute when she first got here, but in fact, it was just an act and this niece-in-law of hers was actually very capable.

Liu Fen ate obediently and everyone quietened down. At this moment, the sound of punches could be heard even more clearly from the backyard.

In the backyard, Xia Zhe leaned against the wall and looked at Kong Lu who had fallen to the ground. There were a lot of fallen leaves and mud in the courtyard due to the heavy rain over the last two days. Kong Lu’s newly changed clothes were now covered in mud.

“Sorry for that,” Xia Zhe said casually without any sincerity.

“I… I’m fine.” Kong Lu forced himself to say this and slowly got up from the ground.

Previously, he had thought that it was an exaggeration that Xia Zhe was the top army warrior who had held that title for consecutive years and was unsurpassed. He had never been convinced before, but now he knew that it was all true.

At that time, he was also the top warrior in his district. He thought that since they were all soldiers, no matter how capable Xia Zhe was, there was no way Xia Zhe could be that accomplished. He felt that everyone was just exaggerating and praising Xia Zhe on account of the Xia family.

Now he knew the truth. Just now, Xia Zhe had beat him up like he was a worn-out sandbag, and he was unable to fight back at all.

Why was it like this! He had also trained very hard! Why was he not as good as Xia Zhe!

“Do you know why I beat you up?” Xia Zhe asked as he walked up to Kong Lu.

“It’s my fault. I let your sister suffer,” Kong Lu said as he looked up at Xia Zhe.

“Suffer? Tell me how she suffered?” Xia Zhe asked.

Kong Lu was stunned for a moment. Before he came, he had heard from his mother about the recent issues at home, but he felt that these were just small matters and not worth mentioning. Besides, Kong Li was still young and ignorant. As her sister-in-law, Xia He should take care of her.

Kong Lu stammered, “I… My mother and Li Li went overboard. I didn’t stop my mother from doing that or educate my sister well. It’s all my fault.”

Xia Zhe continued asking, “How did you people go overboard?”

This time, Kong Lu could not answer. These things were too trivial, and they were all minor issues during daily life. There were so many things that could have happened.

Did my mother and sister take things from the house?

But we are all family. What’s wrong with taking a few items? His brothers can’t even afford to eat. He is doing quite alright, so there’s nothing wrong with him helping his brothers, right?

Had his sister taken something from Xia He?

However, he remembered it was just a few pieces of clothing, cosmetics and jewelry. After that, he bought new ones for Xia He.?Those were not expensive things, so what if his sister took them …

No matter how he thought about it, he still could not figure out what mistakes his family members had made.Then, he suddenly remembered that his mother and sister were always very fierce when they quarreled with Xia He. After all, they were originally from the countryside and were not as refined and polite as the Xia family.

“The way they speak and their attitudes are not good. They should talk to Xiao He properly and should not be so uncouth,” Kong Lu said as he looked at Xia Zhe seriously.

Xia Zhe was so angry that he did not speak. He raised his hand and punched Kong Lu in the stomach again.

He threw punch after punch but he made sure that he did not touch Kong Lu’s face. Kong Lu still had to report to the capital troops in two days. If his face was injured, it would be hard to explain it.

Qiao Mei took a look at the time and went to the backyard to take a look. Qiao Mei heard their conversation and thought that since Kong Lu still did not seem to understand Xia He, there was no need for him to be the Xia family’s son-in-law anymore.

Qiao Mei stood at the door to the backyard and looked at Liu Fen, who did not dare to move from the dining table. She asked, “Second Aunt-in-law, will you take your daughter-in-law’s money to give to your other son?”
