Chapter 321 He is a man with a trump card
Seeing that Chang Hongzheng was no longer willing to give in, Old Master Kuang did not force him. He simply nodded and said, "But today, Anfu and his mother must live in the Kuang family. I will send someone to go back with you to pick them up. There is no rush to move the graves. That can wait. I will find someone and pick a good date before we talk about it."
The living are always more important than the dead.
The relationship was broken up. Even though Old Master Kuang was confident that his men could secretly protect Anfu and his mother, he never thought of letting them continue to stay in such a terrible place as the Chang family.
Old Master Kuang had personally visited that place before, and it was as shabby as a beggar's den outside the city. Even though the mother and son had tried their best to clean it up, it was still covered with dust. But he knew that it was not Anfu and his mother's fault.
After all, in the Chang family, it was difficult for the two of them to even get water to drink and wash themselves, and they had to lower their face to beg for charity from the maids and servants who were supposed to crawl at their feet.
No matter how capable and tidy a woman is, it is already good enough if she can keep the yard tidy and not messy. Wouldn't it be deliberately making things difficult for her if she asked for more?
In a place like that, why would he wait so long to bring the person to Kuang's house? "Isn't that a bit too hasty? It's better to wait and find a good day."
"What? Are you really going to be so ignorant? You really don't know what kind of life Fu'er and his mother led in your Chang's house, and what the courtyard they lived in looked like. You have never seen it, so what?"
Suddenly interrupting Chang Hongzheng's words, Old Master Kuang looked at him sarcastically and said, "If you really haven't seen it before, you might as well go and see it yourself. If you can live in a place like that for ten days or half a month, I will be impressed by you."
"When Shou'er and his family were not feeling well, they did move to the quieter courtyard to recuperate. But, but I have also visited that place myself."
In response to Old Master Kuang's impolite words, Chang Hongzheng frowned and tried hard to recall the past: "Besides being a little secluded, the yard is not small, it is well maintained, has its own garden, a separate small kitchen and a well."
"Haha, yes, it may be nice when you see it. But as soon as you left, the flowers and plants in the garden of that yard were pulled out, and the small kitchen and the well were even demolished and filled in."
As Old Master Kuang said this, he secretly swore in his heart that he had to keep such a place.
Otherwise, if Chang Hongzheng and his concubine cousin and her children can't live here in the future, and enjoy the life that his elder sister and nephew, as well as Anfu and her son, once lived, how can he swallow this anger in his heart? He sneered: "No need to say anything else, just say whether you agree or not?"
It didn't matter whether Chang Hongzheng agreed or not, it couldn't change his decision, but if Chang Hongzheng really dared to hold on and not let go, he would dare to bite off a large piece of meat from his body right now.
Facing Old Master Kuang's bloodshot face, he showed no sign of hiding the fact that he would be torn to pieces just by saying "I don't agree".
Even though Chang Hongzheng didn't completely believe what he and Chang Anfu said, he still backed down at this moment and had to nod his head even though he was reluctant.
He looked at Chang Anfu with resentment, feeling that he had been caring about him for nothing all this time.
Pooh.
He disdains to accept such a descendant who forgets his ancestors and only wants to climb up the social ladder after seeing his family decline. It's just that the situation changes every ten years. Even if the Kuang family is on the rise now, he has a trump card in the Chang family. In the future, Chang Hongzhi secretly hopes that Chang Anfu, this unfilial descendant, can live a few more years with the help of the Kuang family. Only in this way can he see how his Chang family will trample on the Kuang family in the future.
(End of this chapter)
Chapter 322 Recognition
"Fuer."
After being taken to the Kuang family and seeing her son, she knew that she and her son had finally escaped from the Chang family and would never have to go back to that nightmare yard again. Chang Anfu's mother Du Yueniang burst into tears.
"It's all my fault. I don't have the ability to protect you. You've been so tired over the years and have suffered so much with me."
Du Yueniang was a concubine's daughter. Because she married into the Chang family at a high position and married the eldest son and grandson, she was recorded as a concubine's daughter when she got married. However, her dowry treatment remained the same, and was even less than that of ordinary concubines' daughters. She didn't even look very presentable, and it was obvious that Dong Shi of the Chang family had sent someone to make special arrangements in advance.
But Du Yue Niang didn't know all this before she got married. Only after she got married did she learn what kind of life the so-called eldest son of the Chang family, who was sick, had been recuperating, and had never shown his face in public, actually lived in the Chang family.
Marry a chicken, follow the chicken; marry a dog, follow the dog.
Du Yue Niang was kind-hearted. Even though she felt very sad, she never despised or took her anger out on her husband or her own mother-in-law from the beginning.
Even though she married into the Chang family, she could never step out of the Chang family again, and was not even allowed to go back home. She never complained to her husband and her biological mother-in-law because of this. Instead, she felt even more distressed about their plight, and the three of them depended on each other from then on.
But life in the Chang family was really hard.
At first, my husband's mother-in-law was still around, and although my mother-in-law had spent a lot of money, the husband's rich dowry and her own meager dowry were still enough to support her.
Although their days were equally sad at that time, she still had the love of her mother-in-law and the care of her husband. The three of them comforted each other and overcame the difficulties together. They also welcomed the birth of their son, and there were finally some laughter in the courtyard.
But when both her mother-in-law and husband could no longer bear it and passed away, she was left with only her young son. She spent all her money on the funeral arrangements for her mother-in-law and husband, and at that time, life became almost unbearable.
Fortunately, just when she felt she couldn't live any longer and was almost desperate enough to take her son to commit suicide, her uncle who was far away in Dazhao actually sent someone to come.
Those people not only helped solve the dilemma of the mother and son, but also continued to teach their son's studies which had been interrupted due to the passing of his mother-in-law and husband.
Unfortunately, her son was in such a bad condition due to the poisoning that he could only recuperate but could not practice martial arts. But even so, seeing her son no longer being tortured by illness day by day and only having an attack occasionally, she was still happy and full of hope, and felt that she had a future. Thinking of this, Du Yue Niang knelt down and kowtowed to Old Master Kuang and Old Lady Kuang: "I can never repay my uncle and aunt for their great kindness in this life, but I will repay them in the next life."
"We are all family, why is it like this?"
Even though Du Yueniang was not born in a high position, and was not a legitimate daughter but a concubine's daughter whose mother was of low status, she never despised her elder sister and nephew.
Under such circumstances, she was still willing to stay and share the joys and sorrows with them, and depend on each other for life. Such a sentimental and righteous woman, whether it was Old Master Kuang, Old Madam Kuang, or other people in the Kuang family, could not help but look up to her.
After receiving her bow, Madam Kuang, who truly recognized her, went down to help her up and pulled her to sit next to her.
(End of this chapter)
Chapter 323 Misunderstanding
"From now on, this Kuang family will be your and Anfu's home."
Madam Kuang tried to comfort Du Yue Niang with good intentions, saying, "You must have heard from your mother-in-law that the rules of our Kuang family are different from those of other families.
Even if your husband and Anfu didn't change their surnames, they were still members of the Kuang family. It goes without saying that they changed their surnames. So from now on, you are not allowed to treat yourself and Fu'er as outsiders."
"Yes, I heard about it. Back then, my mother-in-law loved to talk to my husband and me about family matters."
Thinking of the past, she could not help remembering that her son and her husband could only live to the age of 20. Thinking that her son was already in his teens, the good days that finally came would only last a few more years. Du Yueniang could not help but burst into tears again, and she was so heartbroken that she wished she could die in her son's place.
But she didn't dare to say such words, for fear that it would remind her husband's uncle and aunt of her mother-in-law and husband and make them sad too. She could only hold back her tears, wiping them away, but she felt as if her tears would never stop wiping away - "It's all in the past, and the days ahead will only get better and better. And don't worry, after so many years of conditioning, Anfu's body has improved a lot, and he will be able to start practicing in a few days."
Du Yue Niang couldn't help crying and looked extremely sad, which made Old Master Kuang, Old Madam Kuang, everyone in the Kuang family, and Chang Anfu couldn't help but wipe away their tears as well.
Without caring about herself, she took a handkerchief and helped Du Yueniang wipe her tears. Madam Kuang said with tears in her eyes, "It's not that his poison cannot be cured. As long as you can cultivate your skills to the level of a high-level warrior, you can suppress it."
A high-level warrior has reached perfection?
When Du Yue Niang heard that her son's poison could be cured, she was ecstatic at first. Then, after she realized what Madam Kuang said, her previous hope was matched by her disappointment, and she cried even more uncontrollably.
Because of the poisoning, his son was too weak to practice. He only had less than ten years left to live. In this short time, it was impossible for him to reach the Great Perfection of a high-level warrior, or even to practice from a warrior to a warrior.
Since it was impossible, he could only live to the age of 20. How could Du Yueniang not be heartbroken?
Du Yueniang was sad, and Chang Anfu was also sad. Madam Kuang's words also made him experience ecstasy and then great sorrow. However, the experience of hardship since childhood had already forged him to be precocious and resolute beyond his age.
Even though he was sad, he still endured it and comforted Du Yueniang: "Mom, life and death are determined by fate, and wealth and honor are determined by God. We can wait for my uncle and aunt to come back and take my grandmother and father away from the Chang family. We can let my grandmother and father finally rest in peace. We can also leave that place by ourselves and live a free life in the future. That's enough."
"Mother knows. Mother is not satisfied. But Fu'er, mother would rather exchange her life for yours. When mother thinks that you will not be able to enjoy the good life in the future for long, her heart cannot bear it. It is too painful."
Du Yue Niang knew that what her son said was right, but she was also worried that her unbridled crying would cause the Kuang family to dislike her, so she finally stopped crying and sobbing.
"Well, it's all my fault for not explaining it clearly."
After hearing this, the Kuang family members who thought Du Yueniang was crying for joy were stunned. Old Madam Kuang reacted and hurriedly explained, "You all think that with only the remaining few years, Fuer will definitely not be able to advance to a high-level great perfection warrior, right?"
(End of this chapter)
Chapter 324 Red Flame Pill
Isn't it?
Chang Anfu and Du Yueniang looked at each other and then at Madam Kuang in confusion.
"Of course not."
Madam Kuang smiled and said, "We have a way to help Fu'er advance quickly. Although that method will inevitably involve some suffering, don't worry, in five or six years at most he will be able to cultivate to the great perfection of a high-level warrior."
"With just five or six years of hard work, one can cultivate to the great perfection of a high-level warrior?"
Both Chang Anfu and Du Yueniang showed disbelief on their faces. Du Yueniang murmured, "How is this possible?"
"How can it be impossible? Why don't you think about why there are so many high-level and perfect warriors in our family?"
"Really? How come there are so many high-level and perfect warriors in our family?" Both Chang Anfu and Du Yue Niang felt that their brains were not working properly. They could only look at Madam Kuang stupidly and repeat her words.
"Do you know the red thorn grass? It is a spiritual herb that can advance a warrior directly if taken directly. However, most people in the world only take it directly. That will completely cut off the possibility of further advancement in the future."
Madam Kuang said with a look of pride: "But don't we have Qingyin in our family? She can refine the red thorn grass into red flame pills.
Taking the Scarlet Flame Pill can also improve the cultivation of an ordinary person who has never practiced martial arts from an ordinary person to a late intermediate martial artist, and it does not affect the advancement at all.
Use it with a medicinal bath pill prepared by Qingyin. If you are not afraid of hardship, use it once every three days to temper your muscles and bones. Practice diligently with the cultivation method, and five or six years of kung fu may be considered a long time. "
"Not afraid of hardship, not afraid of hardship. Aunt, our Fu'er is not afraid of hardship at all."
Madam Kuang's words made Chang Anfu and Du Yueniang more and more excited. They couldn't help showing their joy. As soon as Madam Kuang finished speaking, Du Yueniang couldn't wait to say to her, "He has suffered all kinds of hardships since he was a child. Now he is least afraid of suffering."
If just a few years of hardship could bring her son a long life, Du Yue Niang would not mind her son continuing to suffer. Compared with life, what is hardship? Chang Anfu nodded vigorously, and said to Madam Kuang with a face full of joy and determination: "Aunt, I can endure hardship, I am not afraid."
"Good boy." Madam Kuang waved him over and stroked his little head. "Only those who endure hardships can become successful people. You are still young, so it doesn't matter if you suffer a little now. There are still many good days to come. You will slowly understand in the future."
Chang Anfu's poison needs to be advanced to the Xiantian level before it can be completely removed. He is still young now, and Madam Kuang won't tell him too much, but slowly, when his cultivation level improves, he will naturally know what he should know.
Turning to Du Yueniang, Old Madam Kuang said with a smile, "And you, when the time comes, not only will Fu'er have to suffer, but you will too. If you don't cultivate your body, how can you accompany Fu'er for a long time in the future?"
"I, I can also practice?"
Is this to allow me to take the Red Flame Pill and become an advanced warrior?
When Du Yue Niang thought about the fact that the Kuang family was willing to let her take the elixir that sounded extremely precious, her heart beat faster and she stared at Madam Kuang in disbelief.
"Aunt grandmother——"
Chang Anfu was the same. After hearing what Old Madam Kuang said, his eyes widened instantly. He looked at her with surprise and joy. He was so happy that he didn't know what to do.
(End of this chapter)
Chapter 325: Tit for Tat
"Fu'er is such a lovely child, and Yue Niang has a good temper. She was willing to follow the eldest sister and Shou'er through thick and thin, and then she endured humiliation and refused to abandon Fu'er. We should treat her well in the future.
That bitch from the Dong family was too much, humiliating people again and again. The eldest sister and nephew did not let her go, and Fu'er and the others obviously did not want to let her go either.
Are they still thinking that if our family doesn't come, they will continue to bully Fu'er's descendants in the future?"
I thought of Chang Hongzheng's cousin's step-wife, Dong.
Thinking of Dong's viciousness, Madam Kuang was furious and questioned Old Master Kuang in private: "How could you agree to wipe out the grudges with the Chang family with someone like that? What on earth are you thinking? Are you getting more confused as you get older?"
You actually said that you are getting senile and confused?
Old Master Kuang was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, but it was his wife who said this. He dared not speak out, even if he was angry, he had to be quiet and smile when his wife, who was obviously even angrier, glared at him.
His face was full of helplessness: "If I didn't readily agree to wipe out all grudges with them, would they so readily agree to release Fu'er, his mother, eldest sister and nephew back to the Kuang family?"
Old Master Kuang snorted coldly as he spoke: "I did agree to write off all grudges, but I also promised not to cause trouble to the Chang family in the future, and not to seek revenge, right?"
He snorted with murderous intent on his face: "Even if I agreed to that, it would only be a temporary measure. I am not a cultivator now, and once I make a promise, the laws of nature will constrain me, and I will have inner demons."
"Are you saying that you were coaxing them in order to get Chang Hongzheng to agree to send Yue Niang here first?" Old Madam Kuang was not confused. She immediately understood what he said.
"What else do you think it was for?"
Old Master Kuang finally smiled and said to Old Madam Kuang, "Haha, this is called retreating to advance. I'm just trying to fool Chang Hongzheng first.
Even if I violate my promise to the Chang family in the future and cause some demons to come to me, I am not afraid. Tit for tat, didn't Chang Hongzheng of the Chang family also violate his promise to our Kuang family?
Thinking of the fact that the Chang family had received a large amount of benefits from his family, he agreed to let his eldest sister return to the Kuang family with her child. However, because Chang Hongzheng's favorite concubine, cousin Dong, had not given birth at that time, she was not qualified to be promoted to the first wife based on her status.
Just to prevent the elder sister from staying as the eldest daughter-in-law of the Chang family and to serve as a shield for the Dong family. Chang Hong had already made an agreement with the Chang family and the Kuang family, and the Chang family had also received benefits from the Kuang family, but he still shamelessly regretted it.
Didn't he also retreat in order to advance at that time, agreeing to divorce but refusing to let the child go no matter what? He also kept saying that the child was the eldest grandson of their Chang family.
He clearly knew that if the child could not leave the Chang family, his elder sister would be soft-hearted and would definitely not be so cruel as to leave.
After the Chang family got the benefits, they just pretended not to know Chang Hongzheng's calculations. In the end, the eldest sister had to stay for the sake of the child in tears. How could the Chang family still have the nerve to turn the tables and say that it was not the Chang family that didn't let her go, but that she was greedy for the Chang family's wealth and refused to leave?
Thinking that in order to avoid giving up the benefits they had already swallowed, the Chang family shamelessly turned black into white, which in turn humiliated the Kuang family. They simply refused to give the then head of the Kuang family any chance to gain benefits for the eldest sister who had to stay. Old Master Kuang slapped the table with one palm, and immediately smashed the entire table into powder.
(End of this chapter)
Chapter 326: Apology
Old Master Kuang said in a hateful voice, "They broke their promise back then, and now they still dare to think that I can write off all the grudges with just a few words. Can I really write off everything?
The benefits of our Kuang family are so worthless, and Chang Hongzheng of the Chang family swallowed a lot without complaining, and never mentioned it when it was time to spit it out. Do you really think we are made of clay and can easily agree to it? "
Thinking that Chang Hongzheng was still asking for money when he was about to die, and was unwilling to give up his wealth to save his life, Old Master Kuang felt it was incredible and said, "At the beginning, I thought that the Chang family would be left to Fu'er in the future.
I just wanted to let Chang Hongzheng and Dong Shi see the consequences of forcing my eldest sister and nephew to stay. I wanted to see how they would regret it after seeing it. Otherwise, why would I force myself to stay in the Chang family?
Haha, Chang Hongzheng is so naive. He really thinks that if he is suppressed, I will support another family head from the side branch of the Chang family? Does he think that my Kuang family is a vegetarian and will not take a bite of the fat meat of the Chang family when he sees it? "
"Don't be angry, don't be angry. I know you have a plan in mind. It is natural to repay kindness and revenge. No one can say anything about our family."
Seeing that Mr. Kuang was really furious, Mrs. Kuang hurried to comfort him and said with an apologetic look, "It's not like I don't know how much you hate the Chang family and Chang Hongzheng. How could I be so confused as to think that you would really let them go so easily?"
"I don't blame you. If you didn't hate the Chang family so much, how could you not have thought about it for a while?"
Shaking his head, Old Master Kuang also looked apologetic: "Back then, Mrs. Du was willing to follow my eldest sister and nephew through thick and thin, and so are you?
At that time, your parents forced you to divorce but you refused and followed me to Dazhao without hesitation. You accompanied me through so much hardship.
Now that we are back, your parents still won't forgive you easily. I am sorry for you. If it weren't for me, how could your relationship with your family be so strained?"
Thinking about how he had visited his father-in-law and mother-in-law's house several times after returning to Beixu, he wanted to ease the relationship but was always turned away. As a result, even if his wife came back, she still couldn't go back to her parents' home, and the old man felt that he owed her something.
The guilt of Old Master Kuang hurt Old Lady Kuang's heart. She thought that her natal family was making unreasonable demands on her in public and sending people to her privately to make unreasonable demands. Old Lady Kuang was really ashamed to say that she had such a bad natal family.
She shook her head with a bit of frustration and said, "Didn't I tell you to ignore irrelevant people? I have never blamed you. As long as you don't violate the house rules and go out to mess around, and do something to let me down, then you won't be sorry to me."
Thinking of her parents' home, she suppressed her blush and said unhappily, "Don't worry too much about my parents' home from now on. Since they don't want to recognize me, then they won't recognize me."
"How can I do that? After all these years, I know you still care about me. It's okay. I'll just get turned away a few more times. Don't worry, I can handle it."
Old Master Kuang knew that even though Old Madam Kuang had resented her family in the past, after so many decades, the resentment had slowly faded and turned into longing.
No matter how you put it, the ties between blood ties cannot be severed.
Since she still cared about him and couldn't cut off the family ties, he couldn't take her tough words seriously. Even if he had to suffer some grievances for her, lower his posture, and give up some benefits, what would that matter?
(End of this chapter)
Chapter 327 Tough
Old Master Kuang was thinking about what he should bring out to attract his wife's family without making it too obvious, when he heard Old Madam Kuang said angrily, "Are you really stupid? You must make me explain it clearly? You can't even afford what they want."
Old Master Kuang was stunned.
Seeing that Old Master Kuang was enduring humiliation without regrets, Old Madam Kuang's eyes turned red and she couldn't help sobbing. She said without caring about her face, "Do you know what they sent someone to talk to me about privately? They, they want the training method of our warriors and the formula of the medicinal bath bag. How can I give such things to others?"
Mrs. Kuang's tears fell, and she wiped them away with a handkerchief. Then her expression changed, and her tone became tougher: "To tell you the truth, I did hate them in the early years, and after hating them, I did soften my heart.
But so what? I have always known in my heart that I was married to you only because your Kuang family was in decline. Otherwise, do you really think that I can get such a good marriage just because I am not favored and the Kuang family has such good ancestral rules and regulations? "
Thinking about how I have never been valued or loved by my parents since I was a child, my brothers and sisters looked down on me and their relationship with me is just average.
But the more I do this, the more I look forward to the approval of my parents and brothers and sisters. I often appear humble in front of them unconsciously.
Thinking of this, Madam Kuang sneered and said without hesitation, "I am really glad that although I was reluctant to leave them, I was even more reluctant to leave you and the children. Otherwise, I don't know where I would be hiding now to regret it.
To tell you the truth, the reason they wanted me to divorce was because someone had set his eyes on my fourth sister. Unfortunately, my fourth sister married into a very high-class family, and she was newly married and was in a sweet relationship with my fourth brother-in-law.
They wanted to give their daughter away for fame, but my fourth sister was not stupid, and they couldn't afford to offend my fourth sister's husband's family. So they set their sights on me, a daughter who was not favored but looked very much like my fourth sister, right?
Fortunately, I wasn't stupid back then. Although I longed for them to look at me more straight in the eye out of blood ties, I wasn't so foolish as to not know what to do and what not to do just for the sake of that."
Even though she was mentally prepared, Madam Kuang still didn't dare to look up at Old Master Kuang's expression, she gritted her teeth and continued, "I am the kind of person who only remembers to eat and not to be beaten.
Even though they treated me badly, I was old and I had become soft-hearted towards them in the past few years. I slowly forgot their bad points and started to only remember their good points. I kept finding excuses for them in my heart and moved on from the past.
Madam Kuang clenched her hands slowly as she spoke, gnashing her teeth and said self-deprecatingly, "Unfortunately, this is just my own wishful thinking. If they don't have me in their hearts, then they don't have me.
They wanted to use me back then, and wanted me to be someone else's concubine in exchange for greater wealth and glory for their family, but it didn't work. They still hate me all these years.
But what's funny is that they hate me and act arrogantly towards us. They even dream of getting benefits from our family. They want me to willingly give them the formula of the medicinal bath bag in my home."
(End of this chapter)
Chapter 328: Consideration
The more she talked, the sadder she felt. Madam Kuang felt sad but also inexplicably ridiculous: "Although I haven't told them anything, they have long speculated that since there are so many high-level and perfect warriors in our family, we must have had some kind of adventure.
They wondered if we had obtained some cultivation method from somewhere, so they had a fantasy and asked me to secretly give it to them. They sent someone to say that if I could do these two things, they would forgive the past and recognize me as their own."
After finally saying all this and taking a deep breath, Madam Kuang finally mustered up the courage to look at Old Master Kuang. Seeing his extremely stunned and dazed look, she suddenly wanted to laugh.
She really laughed, and tears came out of her eyes: "Do you think I am a complete fool in their eyes, who can't tell the difference between inside and outside, and between relatives and strangers?"
"."
Old Master Kuang subconsciously reached out his hand, and wiped her tears with his sleeve without even taking out the handkerchief. He gritted his teeth and comforted her: "You are not stupid, they are stupid. They are complete fools."
The woman was a good woman. She had been thinking that her family was now on the rise. Since her old wife valued her family, she could not care too much for the sake of her old wife, even if they looked down on her and always turned her down.
He had thought that he could be patient and seek forgiveness from Yue's family, and then help them to make his wife happy. But in the end, the truth turned out to be like this?
Thinking of his previous humility and endurance of humiliation, Mr. Kuang felt that he was simply a fool.
"You, aren't you angry with me at all?"
Seeing that even though Old Master Kuang was angry, he didn't blame her at all, and didn't have the slightest intention of blaming her, Old Madam Kuang couldn't help but be surprised: "Aren't you angry that I didn't tell you the truth before?"
"Why should I blame you for what they did for no reason?"
Old Master Kuang looked at Old Madam Kuang with a strange expression: "They are them, and you are you. Although you concealed it and refused to tell me what they did, they are your family members. Isn't it normal that you don't want me to know about the family scandal?
If I had a family like that, I would feel ashamed. I would be too embarrassed to tell you and would always try to keep it a secret."
"."
It seemed to be true. I didn't expect that he would be so thoughtful and considerate of me.
Madam Kuang was silent and looked at Old Master Kuang with an extremely complicated expression.
"Don't think about it. Let them act as they please. They don't care about us, and we don't care about them. From now on, we will just ignore each other. Humph..."
Old Master Kuang snorted arrogantly: "One day they will know that they have severed ties with our family. Who will suffer in the end?"
"Okay, from now on, even if they dare to come over for some benefit, we won't bother with them anymore. Let them regret it."
Seeing Old Master Kuang acting so childishly, Old Madam Kuang felt completely relieved. The haze in her heart was swept away and she smiled.
"That's right. You have sons and daughters now, and even grandsons and granddaughters. Why do you still have to be sad all day long for someone who is not worth it? Aren't you afraid that your grandsons and granddaughters will laugh at you if they know about it?"
Seeing that Madam Kuang finally smiled, Old Master Kuang stroked his beard and said with a smile: "It has not been easy for us to go through all the ups and downs these years. I still hope that you can stay with me for a long time in the future."
(End of this chapter)
Chapter 329 Fairness
Old Master Kuang said with emotion: "When we cultivate into the Xiantian realm, we will build the foundation, and then achieve the Golden Elixir and Nascent Soul. Didn't Qingyin say that when we reach the Nascent Soul, we can then shape the Taoist body.
Then the two of us will go back to the way we were when we were teenagers and got married.
Over the years, I have always remembered how you looked when we first met. At first glance, I thought Qingyin looked a lot like you, almost like the same person. But after a closer look, I still think there is a big difference.
You two look alike, but your temperaments are completely different. You have a very bad temper, and act like a tigress when you're angry. But when I think about it, I still think you look best when you're angry and showing off your temper."
"Are you praising me or scolding me?"
He rolled his eyes at Old Master Kuang in displeasure. Old Madam Kuang glared at him at first, then couldn't hold back her laughter and broke her act: "You are taking advantage of my improved temper over the years, and you are itching to scold me to be happy, right? Humph, I won't do as you wish."
Thinking back to the time when she was newly married, she was deliberately indulged by Old Master Kuang, and her temper became worse and worse. She often acted like a spoiled child to him in private. When he never got angry and coaxed her in every way, Old Lady Kuang's eyes were filled with happiness.
She spat softly: "Don't think I didn't see that you did it on purpose, deliberately coaxing me into not wanting to leave you. You wanted me to be willing to bear children for you."
"I am innocent--" When it comes to this, Old Master Kuang's mouth becomes very stubborn. He refuses to admit it even if he is beaten to death and keeps shouting that he is innocent.
"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's talk about the Chang family. If Chang Hongzheng goes back and tells Mrs. Dong about this, she will be furious. Can she so easily agree to move the graves of my eldest sister and nephew back to our Kuang family?"
Interrupting Old Master Kuang, Old Madam Kuang was not actually worried about the question she asked. It was more to change the subject, but she was curious about how Old Master Kuang would deal with the Chang family and the Dong family in the future.
"Don't agree? Humph, let her say she doesn't agree? I'm a fair person. I'll treat them the same way she treated my eldest sister, Shou'er, Fu'er, and Mrs. Du back then."
Speaking of the Chang family, the old man's face darkened again: "Since Dong was showing off in front of the eldest sister and Shou'er, and told them the truth about the poisoning, then if I don't respond to them like this now, wouldn't it be unfair to the eldest sister and Shou'er? So I can't hide the truth from them, and I have to tell them that the courtyard where the eldest sister and her family live is the best place for their family from now on."
With a gloomy face, Old Master Kuang said hatefully, "But I'm not as cruel as them, and I don't want to involve innocent people. So I will tell them so that they don't have to worry too much about their children and grandchildren being tortured by the poison from generation to generation. Do you think I am a kind-hearted person who repays evil with kindness and even thinks about them and solves their worries first?"
Hehe——"Are you being kind? You're obviously worried that they'll be too bored staying in such a small place with nothing to do, so you're giving them a ready-made reason to resent each other and become enemies, right?"
If the Chang family knew that their life had suddenly gone from heaven to hell because of the Dong family, it would be strange if the husband and wife did not turn against each other, and the mother and son did not become enemies.
Thinking about the result, Madam Kuang felt much better and said with a smile, "I think they probably won't like your method of repaying evil with kindness. They will also involve innocent people because they like you."

Chapter 330 Disdain
"Why do we need them to like something? As long as we have a clear conscience and we like it, that's enough."
Old Master Kuang said nonchalantly, "Just wait and see. The Chang family has long been in my hands. If the Dong family is sensible and obediently allows Chang Hongzheng to move the eldest sister and Shou'er out according to our wishes, they can live a few more days of good life. Wait until I have dealt with the affairs of the eldest sister and Shou'er first, and then I will come back to deal with them when I have time. Otherwise, haha——"
There was a gleam of excitement in Old Master Kuang's eyes, and he seemed to be looking forward to Dong's tactless behavior, which made Old Madam Kuang find it even more funny.
The two of them didn't know that at this moment, in the Chang family, the two people, Dong and Chang Hongzheng, who were being discussed by the two of them, were also arguing about whether this was tactful or not.
"No, I cannot agree to that."
When Chang Hongzheng heard that Old Master Kuang wanted to move Kuang and her son back to the Kuang family, he agreed. Dong became anxious and immediately stopped him with a sharp voice.
"You think I want to agree to something so embarrassing?"
Frowning unhappily at Dong, Chang Hongzheng's eyes quickly flashed with a trace of disdain: "But what kind of situation are we in now, and what kind of situation is the Kuang family in? Do you know that the situation is stronger than the people, and do you think I can say no?"
"But, but, Ah Zheng, no matter what, my sister is your original wife, and Shou'er is your eldest son. Can't you go and talk to the Kuang family and ask them not to disturb their peace?"
Dong almost gnashed her teeth secretly, she was shocked and afraid, but she didn't dare to show it on her face and continued to try to persuade Chang Hongzheng: "No matter what, she is still your legitimate wife and eldest son.
The Kuang family was originally angry with us because of them, and now they are in our Chang family, for their sake, the Kuang family should at least think more carefully before doing anything. "
"Stop talking. I know what you said. But now I have no say. Isn't it your fault? It's okay that you treated her and Shou'er badly in the past, after all, it's been so long and they are gone. Even if the Kuang family wanted to bring up the past, it wouldn't be that easy.
But you insisted on marrying Shou'er a wife, and gave birth to that ungrateful little bastard. You don't even know what that little bastard said about you in front of Kuang Hetai."
Even though she was watching Dong crying sadly, because her health had been deteriorating for unknown reasons in recent days, no amount of tonic food could help, so although she looked more and more pitiful and fragile, her skin inevitably became loose and dull.
After all, she is old and not as healthy as before. She also uses the red thorn grass to improve her cultivation to the level of a warrior, and has been able to maintain her appearance.
At that time, she looked young and beautiful, and she acted in the fragile and pitiful look that Chang Hongzheng liked. When she cried, she would naturally attract Chang Hongzheng's sympathy.
But now she looked thin and withered, like a withered and black flower that still insisted on occupying the branch. Chang Hongzheng felt disgusted no matter how he looked at her doing this pose, and he turned his eyes away in disgust and refused to look at her any longer.
Naturally, his words became more impolite and impatient: "Don't say these hypocritical words to me anymore.
Why didn't you say these words when you poisoned them? Now that the Kuang family has come, they all know that you poisoned them. If you bring these up again, won't you be embarrassed? If we are still rude now, do you think they will still be polite?"
