Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 1490: Chapter 1492: I Don’t Hit People

The woman was so scolded by Chiang Xiao that it took her a while to snap back to reality.

Weren’t they saying that all the people from the uncle’s side are from the upper class? How come there’s still a girl cursing so nastily?

Her face turned red with rage, and she sprang to her feet, pointing her finger at Chiang Xiao: ”You little girl, have you no parental discipline...”

”None,” Chiang Xiao replied coldly, ”So you might want to watch it with that finger or else I might just break it.”

The woman recoiled in fright, instinctively retracting her hand.

”You should be thankful that today is Old Tang’s birthday; I don’t hit people on such occasions. Otherwise,” Chiang Xiao’s eyes narrowed slightly, ”you would have been on the floor looking for your teeth by now!”

Old Tang and Tang Qing, who were busy with the guests, had already hurried over.

Tang Qing’s face turned stern as he issued an eviction order.

”You all should leave. We invited people to celebrate, not to cause trouble!”

”What did you say, Tang Qing?”

The corner of Chiang Xiao’s mouth curled up as she chimed in, ”He said ’get lost,’ can’t you understand?”

Since Tang Qing had already spoken, she was no longer reserved.

Seeing that they were still eager to make a scene, Chiang Xiao shook her hand and from her backpack pulled out a small knife, flicked it, and the knife stabbed into the table, with the handle still trembling.

”Get lost.”

If it wasn’t for her not wanting to start a fight and spoil Old Tang’s birthday banquet, she would have already kicked them out directly.

The group was so scared that they turned pale and ran off with their children in a hurry.

”Grandpa Meng, are you all right?” Tang Qing really felt guilty. Those were relatives of the Tang Family, causing such a scene here.

He also felt embarrassed to face Chiang Xiao now.

Old Meng had also been scared by Chiang Xiao’s fierce move with the knife. He suddenly realized that Chiang Xiao had been quite tolerant of them, and her big brother, Meng Qingshan, in the past.

”It’s okay, it’s okay,” Old Meng was about to swallow all grievances, but upon seeing Chiang Xiao’s cold face, he suddenly acted aggrieved, ”It’s just that the kid took my walking stick, hit someone with it, and then threw it back at me, hitting my foot. It’s still hurting.”

With that, he looked pitifully at Chiang Xiao.

Kuang Yunxian and the others were visibly annoyed.

Was Old Meng trying to gain Chiang Xiao’s sympathy by playing the victim?

They had never seen him act like this!

Chiang Xiao pulled out the knife; it was what she used to peel fruits in her Space and didn’t want to waste by throwing it away.

She put the knife back into her backpack and looked at Old Meng. Her tone lacked the warmth Old Meng anticipated. ”No offense, but in your prime you led troops in combats across the Alliance District. Even though you’re older now, when bullied, you should grab your walking stick and fight back. With so many people around, if no one helped you and you got beaten up, then it would be the Tang Family I’ll have trouble with later.”

Old Tang: ”...”

Tang Qing: ”...”

Yes, yes, it was their fault this time.

But wasn’t their initial intention also to create an opportunity for Old Meng to speak with Chiang Xiao?

Old Meng’s eyes reddened slightly, ”Alright, if it happens again, I’ll fight back. Little Little, shall we start eating?”

Old Tang quickly said: ”Yes, yes, yes, how about you guys sit at one table?” he looked towards Kuang Yun Xian.

”That’s fine,” Kuang Yun Xian nodded.

Chiang Xiao pursed her lips and proceeded to the dining area.

She was actually very hungry—eating is the most important thing, no matter how big the world is.

Meanwhile, at the Chiang Family’s residence in City M, someone was making a visit.

”Yuequn, are you sure you’re not mistaken? Does your Second Uncle and Second Aunt really live here? This house doesn’t look like it’s for ordinary people.”

Chen Kaijin, carrying large and small packages, looked at the house with a courtyard, his feelings complex.
