Chapter 218 It Was So Nice to Have a Husband Backed Up

Madame Miao took the hint as early as when Madame Dou Junior left the table. They not only lived in the same family, but they had been sisters-in-law for more than ten years, so they knew exactly how much each other could drink!

Upon seeing this, she immediately exclaimed, “Qiu Yelan, please help your sister-in-law!”

According to the tacit understanding of themselves, even if Qiu Yelan was agile enough to jump away at this time, she was too embarrassed to dodge after Madame Miao exclaimed. Otherwise, if Madame Dou Junior had a fall or even got hurt, how was she supposed to tell others?

As for helping… Qiu Yelan looked young and beautiful, and she was still sitting on the table at this moment while Madame Dou Junior was in the prime of life. So, it seemed that Qiu Yelan couldn’t help her as she fell down from high. Since she couldn’t help her, they would fall on the couch together!

When Madame Dou Junior got up, she hid a hairpin in her sleeve. So, then she could take the opportunity to do something…

She was not afraid of Qiu Yelan shouting out in pain. After all, everyone had seen that she was drunk! She accidentally fell on her younger sister-in-law, and the hairpin stabbed her and then fell on the couch… She didn’t want this to happen as well! Since it happened, she could only make an apology to Qiu Yelan… It was the only thing she could do for such a careless mistake!

Madame Miao looked at the silver light on the bottom of Madame Dou Junior’s sleeve quietly, and then she smiled slightly, revealing a touch of pleasure!

While before she broke into a delighted smile, Madame Dou Junior actually let out a scream!

“Sister-in-law!” Hearing her scream, Madame Miao poured half a cup of residual wine to her side and stood up!

At the same time, Qiu Yelan stood up nervously, holding Madame Dou Junior’s arm firmly with one hand and pressing her waist with the other hand so that she could not move. Then she asked with concern, “My sister-in-law, what’s wrong? Are you having a stomachache?”

Madame Zhang and others could have seen that Madame Dou Junior went up to Qiu Yelan with uneasy kindness, but they earnestly wished that the conflict between the two families could deepen. So not only did they not remind Qiu Yelan, they even deliberately chatted with Madame Tao Junior all the time to draw her attention so that she could not take care of her younger sister-in-law, “Qiu Yelan just got married with Jiang Yashuang, so if she is wronged, she will complain with Jiang Yashuang even if there is no evidence! Since Jiang Yashuang is so favored, so at that time….”

While finally, when they were expecting Qiu Yelan to cry, Madame Dou Junior cried out first!

Everyone looked at them with surprise, only to see Madame Dou Junior’s pale face. She was completely ignorant of pretending to be drunk, and her hands which pressed on her lower abdomen could not help shaking. She stared at Qiu Yelan, as if her eyes were about to burst out the fire!

“Sister-in-law, what’s the matter with you? Don’t scare me!” Qiu Yelan seemed to be worried about her. She pressed her tightly to prevent her from removing the hand that was pressing her lower abdomen. She looked so worried and spoke in a soft voice, looking like someone who was very concerned about her sister-in-law, “Say something!”

“Sister-in-law!” Madame Miao could see it was not that Madame Dou Junior didn’t want to speak, but she couldn’t speak at all!

She changed her color, rushed forward, and pushed Qiu Yelan away forcefully. Qiu Yelan screamed out of her movement without saying anything else, and rolled over the couch to steady herself along the edge. She almost fell down! Madame Tao Junior was so scared that she got up too fast, tripped on the skirt and almost fell over it. She staggered and rushed to pick her up, “Be careful!”

With the support of Madame Tao Junior, Qiu Yelan got up slowly, put on an aggrieved expression, and watched Madame Miao help Madame Dou Junior to sit down slowly. At this time, Madame Tao Junior was still asking if she had got hurt, and Sheng Shishui also left the table to ask whether she was alright. Suddenly, Madame Miao gasped and screamed, “Qiu Yelan, you are so poisonous!”

Madame Tao Junior was puzzled. When she was about to argue for Qiu Yelan, Madame Miao already strode over, raised her hand and slapped Qiu Yelan’s face. She gritted her teeth and said, “You’re such a vicious bitch! How dare you do such a nasty thing in our family! You think big of yourself because you’re a Commandery Princess? You think I dare not teach you a lesson?”

“Madame Miao, what do you mean by this? Qiu Yelan just helped the sister-in-law because she was sick. How can you blame her?” Although Madame Tao Junior was cowardly, but watching her younger sister-in-law being bullied, she couldn’t sit back and watch. She stood in front of Qiu Yelan quickly, “You…”

Before she finished her words, Madame Miao slapped her face heavily!

In the garden, there was no sound in an instant!

Not only Madame Tao Junior was stunned, but even Madame Miao was stunned for a while. She slapped Qui Yelan for some reason, but she didn’t plan to slap Madame Tao Junior! She just wanted to scare her, but how could she have really slapped her?

In the silence, Qiu Yelan suddenly pushed away Madame Tao Junior without saying a word. She grabbed Madame Miao’s outstretched wrist so fast and shouted sharply, “As a sister-in-law, you dare to slap the eldest daughter-in-law of our fourth branch? Why do you bully us? Is it because our fathers and mothers are not in Jing City? Or do you think Madame Tao Junior has such a good temper? Or do you think my brother is so magnanimous that he won’t handle you even if you bully his wife?”

Madame Miao was a little panicked by her repeated questions, and she instinctively argued, “I… I don’t….”

Qiu Yelan slapped her face heavily then, which made her can’t stand her feet after turning around. She staggered back a few steps, and fell down on Sheng Shishui’s table, being crushed by drinks and dishes!

“Qiu Yelan!” Everyone was stunned and stood up to persuade her. Although everyone knew that the banquet would not be peaceful before they entered the table, they did not expect that it would develop into a fight!

“Well, Madame Miao can insult my sister-in-law while we are not allowed to do anything to her?” Qiu Yelan glanced at them contemptuously, took Madame Tao Junior’s arm, and said sternly, “let’s go find the grandmother. If they don’t give us an explanation for it today, we won’t let them go!”

“Qiu Yelan, don’t be like this…” Madame Zhang and others pretended to stop her.

“Sister, you needn’t do it…” Madame Tao Junior burst into tears. It was not the first time that she had been bullied by her sisters-in-law. She was almost used to it, but just as Qiu Yelan said, the elders of her in-laws and her maiden family, and even Jiang Yadan, who had repeatedly broken her heart, had never slapped her!

But out of her temperament, she was afraid of making things big.

Just as she was trying to persuade Qiu Yelan to calm down, a weak voice sounded, “Well, we also want to go to the second uncle and ask what kind of explanation you will give me for my injury, Qiu Yelan.”

Everyone followed her voice and looked at her then. They were blocked by Madame Miao and the servants before, so not until this moment, did they see the clear bloodstains on her fresh-color dress!

“When I helped you, my hands were empty. You know clearly in your heart how you got injured!” Qiu Yelan took Madame Tao Junior’s arm and looked at her sternly without any emotion in her eyes, which made Madame Dou Junior’s heart couldn’t help feeling chilly!

“Or you’ve got injured already before you came to the party, and then you made the wound opened up by yourself. That’s because you don’t cherish yourself. I am not your parent, so how will I cherish you more than yourself?” Qiu Yelan said coldly and then took Madame Tao away in strides! Sheng Shishui followed them silently.

After they left for a while, Madame Miao finally came to her sense. She pounded the table and shouted hysterically, “She… She… That bitch! How dare she hit me!”

“Madame Miao, you have slapped the eldest daughter-in-law of the fourth branch in front of the public for no reason first, and then Qiu Yelan slapped you for her sister-in-law because she felt sorry for her. It seems against the rule,” He Shuijin said, “but it’s human nature!” Then she whispered, “It’s lucky that Madame Zhuang is not in Jing City now. Tell you the truth, according to her temper, you are causing a lot of trouble for Aunt Yang!”

Madame Zhuang was so arrogant. For some trivial matters, she had led some servants into the house of the first branch and dragged Madame Dou’s dowry slave to the yard, beating him to death! That time, Marquess Qin, who never asked about the harem, was trembling with anger. However, she gave birth to Jiang Yadan, who was so clever and had a very good visual memory as a child. For the future of this grandson, Marquess Qin couldn’t let his son divorce her!

Jiang Yadan was no longer brilliant at this time, but Jiang Yashuang was recognized as the most promising among the Jiang Family! It was conceivable that after Madame Zhuang returned to Jing City, she would still run wild with her youngest son!

“Qiu Yelan… Madame Zhuang never kept the mother in the eye in those days as she was backed by her son!” Hearing these words, the resentment and guard in Madame Dou Junior’s and Madame Miao’s hearts grew like summer grass. “Jiang Yashuang is extremely valued by the second uncle now. If Qiu Yelan had an heir then, judging by her behavior today, wouldn’t she be another Madame Zhuang? No! She is even more arrogant than Madame Zhuang! Madame Zhuang just killed my mother’s dowry slave with my mother present, and that time Jiang Yadan had already shown talent and intelligence! While Qiu Yelan has just got married! She dares hit Madame Miao now!”

Madame Zhuang Junior silently glanced at He Shuijin who had an unpredictable smile, and sighed in her heart, “Qiu Yelan, you’ve offended our first branch so badly!” She began to consider whether to remind Qiu Yelan that He Shuijin incited Madame Dou Junior and Madame Miao to guard against the fourth branch for fear that there would be another Madame Zhuang, “He Shuijin is familiar with Qiu Yelan, but I’m not close with her. If I told her about this rashly while she was persuaded by He Shuijin finally, she would think that I did this to make mischief. And, what will I gain by doing so?”

The sisters-in-law left here had their own thoughts.

The three women of the fourth branch who were going to Madame Tao also talked in a low voice. Sheng Shihui said, “Qiu Yelan, you are kind enough to do that, but Madame Miao is our sister-in-law after all! I’m afraid it will be difficult to explain it to the elders for that!”

Sheng Shishui said anxiously, “As for grandfather’s attitude towards the first branch, I think you’ve known more or less about that since you’ve been married for a few days.”

“So, it’s all up to you then, sister-in-law.” Qiu Yelan’s words made Madame Tao Junior stunned, who was utterly confused and relied on her to move mechanically.

Sheng Shishui was stunned, “Me? What can I do?”

“Madame Dou Junior’s injury is not caused by me. So many people have seen that I helped her with empty hands. Her injury was definitely caused by a sharp object such as a hairpin. Let’s just ignore her threat!” Qiu Yelan said solemnly, “So there was no reason for Madame Miao to beat me! She dared slap Madame Tao Junior finally! I would slap her unless I’m not a member of the fourth branch!”

Madame Tao Junior’s long eyelashes blinked. She shook off a drop of tears, and whispered, “I am very happy you stand by me, but… You really shouldn’t slap her! We can just ask the grandmother to handle that for us!”

“No matter how grandmother punishes her, she wouldn’t give her a slap in the face! Then how can I vent my anger? “Qiu Yelan held Madame Tao Junior’s hand and said with a sneer, “If you hadn’t stood in front of me to protect me, you wouldn’t have suffered this humiliation! It’s alright now. No matter how she sues me, she can’t come and hit me! Isn’t it just about apologizing? I have made so many apologies. I’m not afraid of that!”

She continued to say to Sheng Shishui, “However, this incident was caused by Madame Dou Junior’s toasting me after she got ‘drunk’. She offered me so much wine! So, I did that not only to protect Madame Tao but also because I drank so much!”

Sheng Shishui’s eyes flashed and then she smiled, “The reason that you drank so much was that they kept toasting you. They suffered from their own actions, so how can they blame you?”

Qiu Yelan nodded with satisfaction, “I know you’re smart! So, I will leave it to you then!” People who are drunk should look drunk, right?

Madame Tao Junior smiled bitterly after hearing that, “You don’t understand the family… To be fair, Yelan really doesn’t need to bear too much responsibility because of the reason you just talked about. But, whether Qiu Yelan should be responsible, to be honest, it depends on grandfather!”

“Jiang Yashuang will talk to grandpa.” Qiu Yelan pursed her lips, “When I came here, he told me that I didn’t have to wrong myself! He will handle whatever happened!”

“That’s great! Grandfather really cherishes Jiang Yashuang. Since he will stand by us, then it won’t be a big problem then!” Madame Tao Junior’s and Sheng Shishui’s eyes flashed with admire.

It was so nice to have a husband backed up!
