Farm Girl Turns Everything Around: Sly Husband, Let's Farm - Chapter 1779 - 1778: Public Relations
Chapter 1779: Chapter 1778: Public Relations
After Yang Wenxiao’s death, Yang Hao revealed the connection between the Yu and Tong families, causing an uproar like a stone dropped into a thousand ripples. The already resigned Aristocratic Families were so enraged that they practically vomited blood.
Over the years, Daqi had four great masters—Tong Sanlang, Bei Lingsu, Bei Yun, Jiufeng—along with explosives and the Divine Crossbow Team. The Aristocratic Families, one by one, became docile and submissive. Even when Qiao Xiaomai launched her Grand “Six-Six Mid-Year Festival” Sale, they still flocked over, fighting to snap up her goods.
In winter, the post-harvest crops entered the Royal Shadow Puppet Theater. Even though each ticket only cost five taels silver, they still bought them without hesitation.
These people seemed to have resigned themselves to letting Qiao Xiaomai squeeze them dry of silver.
And they had no choice but to give up—the fist rules all. Power comes from the barrel of a gun. They couldn’t resist the martial prowess of the Yang Family, nor could they resist the allure of Qiao Xiaomai’s food. So all they could do was obediently dish out their silver.
If they had to pay, so be it—they had accepted their fate. But now, Yang Hao suddenly tossed out such a bombshell, and it really seemed like he intended to infuriate them to death.
Recalling Qiao Xiaomai’s rise to prominence, Jiweiju played an exceedingly crucial role. At first, it was a cooperative relationship, helping Qiao Xiaomai boost her fame. Later, it became an antagonistic one. Yu Zizhou, in framing Tong Xingda by colluding with the Wu family heir, ended up costing Jiweiju as collateral damage.
Later, the Wu family couldn’t swallow their anger, so they teamed up with the Tianlong Gang to kidnap someone from the Zhang Family, which implicated the Duan family and further brought out Bei Lingsu.
Bei Lingsu even helped Qiao Xiaomai storm the Yu Residence. Qiao Xiaomai directly kicked the Yu Residence’s main gate clean off its hinges.
Looking back at Qiao Xiaomai’s ascent, Jiweiju’s importance was second only to Yang Wenxiao’s support, her formidable skills, and the chain reaction of events that followed—all of which were triggered by the Yu and Tong families’ conflict.
But who would have thought that the Yu and Tong families were actually one family!
One family, damn it, one family!
These two families had been deceiving them for years!
Infuriating!
Even though this group of people was so mad they could vomit blood, they were powerless against the Yu-Tong families. The four great masters were still there, the explosives and the Divine Crossbow Team were still there—what could they possibly use to get revenge on the Yu-Tong families?
In the past, they might have resorted to poison, but two of the four great masters were unparalleled experts in medicine and poisons. Their knowledge of toxins far surpassed theirs, making the route of poisoning utterly futile.
Fight? They were no match.
Poison? The other side was even better at it.
Even though their rage was enough to make them explode, all they could do was endure it.
The fist rules all.
It wasn’t just the Aristocratic Families deceived by the Yu-Tong families who were enraged—the families themselves were equally dumbfounded. “What, what, what? We’re actually from the same family?!”
Too absurd!
Especially Yu Zizhou—once he couldn’t wait to see Tong Sanlang and Qiao Xiaomai dead. But now, it turned out he and the other side were family!
It was enough to make him want to puke!
Qiao Meipan, on the other hand, was overjoyed. Family? That meant the relationship between the two families was now much closer, right? Over the years, she had already apologized to Qiao Xiaomai countless times. Surely now, Qiao Xiaomai would forgive her for the sake of their familial ties?
Qiao Xiaomai wouldn’t forgive her. As long as Qiao Xiaomai hadn’t forgotten the grudge over having her pants pulled down back then, she wouldn’t forgive her.
And besides, the decision lay with Zhuang Lühe. If Zhuang Lühe wouldn’t forgive her, then no one could do anything about it.
When Qiao Meipan came crying to her yet again, Qiao Xiaomai sent her to Zhuang Lühe, who promptly sent her packing.
Zhuang Lühe laid hands on Qiao Meipan.
Zhuang Lühe, over the years, had grown increasingly depressed. Qiao Xiaomai had her take up martial arts, suggesting that if she was feeling pent up, she could use martial arts to vent. If worse came to worst, she could even take a knife or sword and destroy something to release her anger.
As someone who had been through it all, Qiao Xiaomai was experienced when it came to venting emotions.
So Zhuang Lühe started practicing martial arts—and ended up beating Qiao Meipan.
