Chapter 876: Chapter 876: Scumbag Brother and Scumbag Father, Get Lost (22)

"I don’t know either, I can’t interfere with how you choose to act, I can only appropriately help you cheat." The bigwig didn’t want cheats, so he could only accompany the other person in conversation.

Qiann Yan thought for a while, the current situation in the Central Plains is relatively stable, the emperor is not an inept person.

However, at the borders, there are still some small conflicts with some small countries.

With the country stable, this complete world is definitely not about striving for dominance.

With her here, Meng Wengan won’t be able to walk that path either.

Qiann Yan began to think carefully, considering where she could intervene, which would also let her enjoy a life where she could have everything done for her.

She didn’t like working.

As an Empress, she was accustomed to being served.

She needed to do something that could earn respect, have status in this era, and could firmly suppress Meng Wengan.

Unable to think of anything for the moment, Qiann Yan could only deal with the matters at hand.

Soon, Xu Yunniang returned.

She had just entered the village when she heard what happened today, quickly hurrying back.

Qiann Yan saw her with a protruding belly and said, "Sister-in-law, walk slower."

"Sigh..." Xu Yunniang came up to hold Qiann Yan’s hand, sighing with relief before turning her gaze to Meng Wengan, who sat squatting and pale-faced on the threshold.

Seeing Meng Wengan’s bandaged left hand, she fell silent, not pitying the other party, clearly indicating how unpopular Meng Wengan’s actions usually were.

When Xu Yunniang married into the family, the bit of savings she had were taken by Meng Wengan for eating, drinking, and having fun.

It’s no wonder she didn’t care about this person.

"Now Brother can’t go to school anymore, I told him to rest for ten days, and after that start working again."

Xu Yunniang had no objections, work was necessary, a grown man doing nothing all day, eating, drinking, and having fun, is that being a head of the household?

Qiann Yan didn’t ask Xu Yunniang whether she resented her words, even if she did, it was necessary, she wouldn’t show mercy to Meng Wengan.

Not killing him off with a single slash was due to the law’s prohibition against murder, and she wouldn’t break the law if she could avoid it.

"Tomorrow I’ll make a trip to the county to bring Brother’s things back."

Xu Yunniang said, "I’ll accompany you, I wouldn’t be at ease with you going alone."

Qiann Yan noticed the eager gaze of Xu Yunniang, knowing that she likely wanted to take a stroll in the county too, she accepted without mentioning the travel hardships that might affect Xu Yunniang’s health.

Mrs. Zhang initially disagreed, but Qiann Yan resolved her concerns in a few words, and Xu Yunniang suddenly realized the house seemed much brighter.

Especially the food on the table, it was much more fair than before, the three women didn’t eat the worst meals.

"In ten days, aside from the father who can’t move, anyone else who wants to eat well must contribute to the family," Qiann Yan said, evidently taking charge.

Mrs. Zhang and Xu Yunniang nodded cooperatively, they both knew Qiann Yan was formidable, having learned martial techniques from a skilled old man.

Even without men in the house, no one would dare take advantage, since even the boss of the gambling den would fear this young girl.

She was very formidable.

Xu Yunniang even began to think about whether she could learn some techniques from Qiann Yan after giving birth.

"Of course you can." Qiann Yan looked at Xu Yunniang with admiration, she was a discerning woman with a clear sense of right and wrong, and Qiann Yan had no qualms about teaching her martial arts.

"Does Mother want to learn?" Qiann Yan asked.

Mrs. Zhang was taken aback, quickly shaking her head, "With these old bones, I’m afraid I can’t manage it, just teach Yunniang, learning a couple of moves is good enough."

Meng Chongxi was paralyzed, Meng Wengan was unreliable, neither was dependable, with the daughter and daughter-in-law becoming capable, there was no need to rely on men.

Mrs. Zhang suddenly felt there was more hope in life, this wasn’t such a bad thing.

The family not supporting scholars meant life would be easier.
