Chapter 140: Burst You (16)_1
Lady Fang shook with rage but did not say a word when she saw Pei Qin beat Lady Chen so fiercely. Instead, she came over, grabbed her, and dragged her toward their home.
Shocked, the villagers watched as Lady Chen, her face swollen and bloody, was discussed in hushed, gossiping tones. Even if Pei Daya was no good, as the eldest brother’s wife, Lady Chen’s act of stealing and sending the girl’s undergarments out was akin to a death sentence!
Pei Wenbo and Pei Wenlee shouted curses as they rushed forward.
Pei Qin raised her foot and sent Pei Wenbo tumbling away with a kick.
"You’ve turned against us! You wretched girl, what do you think you are doing!? Trying to kill someone!?" Lady Zhu’s face turned a ghastly shade of purple as she cursed loudly and ran to help Pei Wenbo.
"I want to ask, what was my sister-in-law thinking, sending Qinqin’s undergarments to Qian Village?" Madam Fang shouted back hoarsely with fury.
Lady Zhu’s face went from purple to asphyxiated blue.
Pei Qin gave her a cold glare and then looked back at Old Pei, who had hurried over, "Let the Chen family come and properly redeem their daughter!" With that, she dragged Lady Chen toward the courtyard, with no intention of handing her over to the main house.
Madam Kong’s eyes widened. By doing such a thing, her mother-in-law had already given them a disadvantage, and it was embarrassing for them as well. And if word got out to the Chen family...
Pei Wenlee and Pei Wenbo continued to wail and demand the release of Lady Chen but dared not approach any further.
Pei Qin dragged Lady Chen back to the courtyard and kicked her to the ground.
