The evil woman becomes the concubine and the villain is crushed to ashes

However, no matter how respectful she was, if it were in the past, Marquis Xiao would have turned a blind eye and let Madam Xiao come in and make a scene.

But now——

That brat Xiao Yusheng caused a big disaster and got into trouble with the emperor. Now he is a useless person and has lost his position as the crown prince. There is no value in him being cultivated by me.

In the future, the title of Cheng'en Marquis will still have to be inherited by other sons. Unfortunately, the second son is a bastard, and his status is really mismatched.

But if the second son can pass the imperial examination, it is not impossible to consider letting him inherit the title, so at this time, we can't let Madam Xiao bully others anymore.

Besides, in this matter, Mrs. Xiao was in the wrong. She even dared to hit the second brother in front of him. How arrogant would Mrs. Xiao be when he was not around?

Lord Xiao was thankful more than once that he had caught Madam Xiao bullying Feng Xiaoniang in advance, and then arranged two guards to guard outside Hanmei Garden. Otherwise, who knows whether Feng Xiaoniang still exists today?

Thinking of this, Lord Xiao walked over quickly, pulled his son aside in an unpleasant manner, and then lectured Feng Xiaoniang.

"What are you talking about? What do you mean by allowing someone to be beaten or scolded? It's just that the crazy woman herself has no moral integrity. Filial piety should be shown, but it's not okay to be beaten so unreasonably. Don't teach your child nonsense."

Lord Xiao turned and said to his son.

"Don't listen to your mother. She is a woman, and it is a virtue for her to follow the rules. But you are a man. Although you should be obedient to your parents, you can't be blindly filial, especially with the way your wife is. If you really let her vent her anger on you, what else can she not do in the future?"

The two sides had different opinions, and Xiao Yu'an was obviously conflicted, not knowing who to listen to.

And just at this moment, the noise outside gradually got closer, and there was the sound of a maid hurriedly trying to stop people.

"Madam! Madam, you can't go in! The Marquis said you can't go in! Madam, please don't embarrass me..."

"Snapped!"

"Get out of here! Don't stop me!"

A frowning noise broke out, and it finally ended with a slap.

Lord Xiao and Mrs. Feng looked over with displeasure.

Of course, the only one who was unhappy was Marquis Xiao. Mrs. Feng still had a submissive look on her face. Xiao Yu'an was still humble. Before Madam Xiao walked in, he had already bent down and called her mother.

Feng Xiaoniang was originally planning to hide behind Marquis Xiao, but when she saw Madam Xiao coming at her aggressively, a thought flashed through her mind and she suddenly remembered something.

His eyes rolled, a calculating arc appeared at the corner of his mouth, and then he hurried forward before Marquis Xiao and said with a flattering expression.

"Madam! It's nothing that you're here. I'm going to go out and greet you. The Marquis is just angry. If there's any misunderstanding, Madam, just explain it to the Marquis!"

Before Mrs. Xiao got halfway there, she saw Feng Xiaoniang's annoying face, especially since Feng Xiaoniang was coming towards her with a smile on her face.

what's going on?

Is this a direct provocation?

Mrs. Xiao's anger could no longer be suppressed, and it rushed to the top of her head. She has always been a person who dares to think and do.

So when Feng Xiaoniang came up to her with that annoying face and talked gossip, Madam Xiao couldn't stand it anymore and raised her hand to slap her hard.

"Snapped!"

The crisp sound of slaps echoed throughout Hanmei Garden.

Xie Ruyu, who followed in, originally had the opportunity to stop it, but as soon as she came in, she noticed Feng Xiaoniang.

Perhaps he smelled the scent of a similar person, Xie Ruyu withdrew his hand that was about to stop Mrs. Xiao.

Anyway, Madam Xiao is a fool, so let her go forward and test it out to see how capable this Miss Feng is.

The slap landed heavily on Feng Xiaoniang's well-maintained face, leaving an immediate red mark. What happened next was almost what Xie Ruyu had expected.

All I heard was Lord Xiao roaring.

"what you do!"

Then Lord Xiao stepped forward quickly, protected Feng Xiaoniang behind him, stared coldly at Madam Xiao, whose face was also flushed, and started to teach her a lesson.

"Are you addicted to beating people? You beat everyone you see like a mad woman. Look at yourself, do you still have the dignity of a mistress?"

Mrs. Xiao felt uncomfortable when she was yelled at.

But suddenly someone pinched her hand, and she felt annoyed again, but she also understood that this was Xie Ruyu's reminder. It was because of the reminder that she suddenly remembered the purpose of her visit.

Although Mrs. Xiao was angry, she was not stupid after all.

The most urgent task is to restore the Xiao family's status in the eyes of the Third Prince. If the Xiao family falls, he and his son will have a hard time, so he suppresses his anger for the time being.

This was just right, as she could put all the blame for the slap on Feng Xiaoniang, so Mrs. Xiao opened her mouth and started to speak, without any intention of laying the groundwork, but going straight to the point.

But at this moment, Feng Xiaoniang suddenly came over, covering her face with one hand, her voice was soft and gentle, but the words she said were full of sarcasm.

"Don't be angry, my Lord. Madam didn't mean it. It's my fault. I shouldn't have blocked the way. I know Madam's temper. When Madam is in a bad mood, I should hide away."

"And Madam, you came here to look for the Marquis. If I go over to you like this, Madam will only be more unhappy. I deserve to be beaten. It is definitely not Madam's intention to intimidate me. Of course, I have no intention of disrespecting the Marquis."

Good guy.

This sounds weird.

For Xie Ruyu, who also likes to be sarcastic, it was like meeting another self.

Xie Ruyu couldn't help but stare at Feng Xiaoniang's face, and he already had a rough judgment in his mind.

It seems that this Feng Xiaoniang is a tough nut to crack. No wonder Madam Xiao can't handle her...

Sure enough, after hearing what Mrs. Feng said, Lord Xiao just wanted to teach Madam Xiao a lesson.

But now he was so angry that he raised his hand and pushed Feng Xiaoniang to Xiao Yu'an, asking him to take care of her.

He stood in front of Mrs. Xiao like a guardian angel, blocking Feng Xiaoniang and Xiao Yu'an and started cursing with a cold face.

"I think you really don't know the rules anymore! Have I spoiled you too much over the years? Have you forgotten who is the boss of Cheng'en Marquis Mansion?"

"For so many years, I let you control everything in the house because I trusted and respected you, but you completely failed my expectations. It's fine that you beat someone once in front of me, but now you beat him a second time. I think you don't need to be the mistress of the house anymore!"

This is not an unimportant statement.

Madam Xiao's face turned pale immediately, but after she came to her senses, she became furious and raised her hand to scratch Marquis Xiao.

This time, Xie Ruyu acted in time, hugged one of Mrs. Xiao's arms with both hands, and hurriedly tried to dissuade her.
