Chapter 23 The Way of the Man: Carrying a machete to Niu Aixiang's mother-in-law's house
The world truly belongs to those with thick skin.
Lu Yuanqing was greatly surprised and wanted to ask Niu Aixiang how she managed to be so shameless.
"Niu Aixiang." Even Gu Ersao was unwilling to call him that anymore. "My business with Gu Baoxia is our business. At the very least, it's your in-laws' business. If you came to the Lu family today just to talk about this, then I'll see you out."
No one in the Gu family is now willing to marry Gu Baoxia, the original owner of this body.
If the original owner had wanted to, she wouldn't have starved to death.
"Hey, no, Yuanqing, why are you kicking me out!" Niu Aixiang really didn't expect that Lu Yuanqing wouldn't even give her basic courtesy and would actually kick her out directly.
"Alright, alright, I won't keep you in suspense any longer, I'll tell you."
Lu Yuanqing snorted coldly, raised his chin, and gestured for her to hurry up and not delay their dinner.
Niu Aixiang was immediately furious.
After smoothing things over, Niu Aixiang said, "Yuanqing, you should have some idea why I'm here today. I'm here for Niu Bao. You should also know about his relationship with Yuan Huan!"
“Since my brother and your sister are still young, I thought they had grown up together and the two families know each other well. Although your parents are no longer here and your family's current situation is indeed not ideal, my younger brother doesn't care about these things. He has his eye on Yuan Huan, so my parents and I just go along with it.”
“Now that you are in charge of the Lu family, you have the final say. Considering that both Xiaobao and Yuanhuan are interested, let’s see if we can arrange an engagement for them first.”
"You son of a bitch! That blockhead Niu Datou is no match for my little sister. Keep dreaming!" Lu Yuanbo was the first to turn hostile.
Lu Mingdong also glared at Niu Aixiang.
In the entire Shihua Village, probably only the Niu family would think that Niu Datou was such a coveted prize.
Who else would want him, that good-for-nothing, cunning, and sleazy-looking guy?
They've set their sights on Lu Yuanhuan, how could they not be angry!
"A toad trying to eat swan meat!" Lu Mingnan glared at Niu Aixiang.
He was young, and he knew that Niu Datou was not good enough for his aunt.
“Tell me, this is what happens when you don’t have a mother to teach you. You don’t even know how to talk to your elders properly,” Niu Aixiang said. “Yuanqing, you really need to teach your younger brother and nephew a lesson. Look at them, look at them, they’re like this now. How are they going to grow up?”
“You…” Lu Yuanbo rolled up his sleeves and was about to hit someone, but Lu Yuanqing stopped him.
Coming to someone else's house and acting so arrogantly, Niu Aixiang really... deserves a beating!
"Brother, why are you pulling me?! This damned woman dares to curse us like that, I'll beat her to death!" Lu Yuanbo was furious.
"You're going to hit me again? You have no manners, Lu Laosi! You can't have a temper like that! You're always talking about beating this person to death, beating that person to death. Sooner or later you'll get into serious trouble and be eating peanuts!" Niu Aixiang was completely unafraid.
If Lu's parents and brothers were still alive, he would indeed have to be more careful with his words.
But now, only Lu Yuanqing is capable of managing the Lu family, yet he's also a good-for-nothing.
Besides, Niu Aixiang didn't think there was anything wrong with what she said.
With such an arrogant temperament, he's bound to get into trouble sooner or later. She's just too kind-hearted to discipline him and teach him to behave.
Lu Yuanqing laughed angrily and said, "This is my family's business. You came to my house like a lunatic to lecture my brother and insult my sister, and you actually say it's for their own good?"
"Hahaha!!! Who the hell do you think you are?!"
Lu Yuanqing roared, not even realizing that he had sworn.
"No!! Yuanqing, your sister-in-law didn't come to argue, she came to discuss serious matters," Niu Aixiang explained.
She didn't take Lu Yuanbo's anger seriously, after all, the fourth son of the Lu family was an impatient and short-tempered person.
But when Lu Yuanqing got angry, it felt like an honest person was finally rebelling, which was a bit scary!
But when Niu Aixiang wanted to turn off the fire, Lu Yuanqing refused.
"Fourth brother, grab your weapons!" Lu Yuanqing shouted.
Having long wanted to take action, Lu Yuanbo immediately agreed upon receiving the order: "Alright!"
"Hey, Yuanqing, Yuanqing, what are you doing! Your sister-in-law meant well, she didn't mean any harm, why are you angry! Hey, what are you doing!" Niu Aixiang hurriedly stopped them.
Lu Yuanqing, who was already carrying a wood-chopping knife, turned around and smiled upon hearing this, saying, "I don't hit women, but since Sister-in-law Gu likes to come to my house to teach people a lesson so much, I'll go to your in-laws' house and ask how they teach you, their daughter-in-law, and maybe have a little sparring with Brother Gu!" As for Niu Aixiangniang, there's no rush, we can wait a bit.
After saying that, Lu Yuanqing shook off Niu Aixiang, who was tugging at his sleeve and trying to stop him from leaving, and he and Lu Yuanbo headed straight for the Gu family, looking like they were there to settle scores.
Since reasoning with them was useless in Shihua Village, he decided to resolve the issue in their own way.
Since everyone thinks that the Lu family is easy to bully, then he will show them with his actions that even if the Lu family members are all teenagers, he, Lu Yuanqing, will not allow anyone to bully them.
They've come to the Gu family?
Niu Aixiang was dumbfounded!
Why does it suddenly sound like they're about to come knocking on the Gu family's door?
If her in-laws find out what she's been seeing, she'll be finished.
Sensing something was wrong, Niu Aixiang shouted and chased after him.
Having already wandered around the house for half a day, and with all the powerful weapons taken away by his third and fourth uncles, Lu Mingdong sighed, barely managing to grab a suitable stick, and followed them.
As he stepped out the door, he suddenly remembered something, rushed into the kitchen, and hurriedly said, "Niu Datou's sister said some unpleasant things, and Uncle San and Uncle Si went to the Gu family with machetes. Aunt, you need to go to Uncle Da's house quickly and ask him to come and help!"
After saying that, he didn't care that Lu Yuanhuan in the kitchen was shocked by his words and hurriedly ran away.
"What?! They've attacked the Gu family?! Why are Third Brother and Fourth Brother so impulsive? What if they get hurt?!" Lu Yuanhuan was immediately terrified.
That's just how she is. She doesn't mind sacrificing her own well-being, but if her family members get hurt because of her, she feels incredibly guilty.
Contrary to her reaction, when Lu Mingxi heard that everyone in the family had gone to fight, her mind started to race. Finally, her gaze fell on the only kitchen knife in the house. Her eyes lit up, and she quickly went forward, picked up the knife, and was about to rush out.
"Xiao west, what are you doing?!" Lu Yuanhuan's eyes widened.
"Let's fight!" Lu Mingxi's matter-of-fact words left Lu Yuanhuan speechless.
"Auntie, there are fewer of us and we're not as strong as the others. We're afraid we'll suffer. Listen to Xiaodong, go find Grandpa Tang for help!"
Lu Yuanhuan: "..."
Knowing he would suffer losses, yet still so eager to fight, Lu Yuanhuan, a peace-loving man, once again felt out of place with his family.
Seeing Lu Mingxi excitedly chasing after Lu Mingdong, Lu Yuanhuan also started running; she had to find her uncle.
But after running a few meters, as if she had thought of something, her eyes darted around and quickly locked onto a slightly thick branch. Her heart pounded, and without much hesitation, she picked up the branch and ran.
She wants to fit in!
Leaving aside the fact that Lu Yuanhuan had the idea of fighting for the first time in his life, Lu Yuanqing and Lu Yuanbo were the first to rush to the Gu family!
In the rural areas of Sichuan and Chongqing, there are no courtyards. You walk across the open space in front of your house and you're directly at your doorstep.
It was right after work, and everyone was at home.
Thick smoke billowed from the Gu family's kitchen, while the Gu family men sat at the doorway, boasting and waiting for their meal.
When the Gu family man saw the Lu brothers, carrying machetes and heading towards their house menacingly, he was taken aback for a moment, then subconsciously stood up to defend himself.
Although I don't know why they're coming to my house like crazy, judging from their behavior, they're definitely looking for trouble.
"Yuan Qing, what are you doing???" Gu Weichang asked.
"What do you want to do?" Gu Hailiang picked up a small stool from the ground and pointed at it, making a gesture to stop them.
"My God!!" Gu Hewang and Gu Heshun usually seem arrogant and domineering, but when they actually encounter such a situation, their first reaction is to stay far away.
Lu Yuanqing's face still held the anger that Niu Aixiang had stirred up. He didn't stop walking, brandishing his machete as he headed towards the Gu family's house, shouting, "What? Your wife, Gu Hailiang's wife, likes to come to my house to cause trouble and teach my younger brother and sister a lesson. It's not too much for me to teach her a lesson back, is it?"
what?
Niu Aixiang went to the Lu family to cause trouble?
Did she eat too much?
The Gu family was stunned for a moment, and when they came to their senses, they saw Lu Yuanqing enter the house, holding a machete and chopping at whatever he saw.
Behind him followed Lu Yuanbo, who was imitating him!
