Chapter 462 Protecting the Best Sister 4
Chapter 462 Protecting the Best Sister 4
Zhang Rulan was no pushover. Having suffered such a great injustice, she threw herself into the fight. She rushed over, grabbed Mudan's hair, and dragged her to Madam Zhou: "Tell me, were you the one who framed me?"
"what are you doing?"
As her "darling cash cow" was being dragged away, Mother Cao rushed over and slapped Zhang Rulan in the face: "Little bitch, let go!"
Li Mingzhu turned around and stood in front of Zhang Rulan, then kicked Mother Cao hard in the stomach, sending her flying five meters away.
"Old man, you're trying to show off your power now?!" Li Mingzhu cursed. "Just now, someone spat in your face, and you were silent like a dead dog. Now you're showing off and you dare to attack me?"
Li Mingzhu grabbed Mudan's neck and pressed her in front of Madam Zhou. With her other hand, she pulled out the silver hairpin from her hair and pressed it against Mudan's fair face: "Tell the truth, or I'll scratch your face!"
"No!" Peony screamed, "I said... I said..."
She cried and told the story of Qingshan Temple.
Li Mingzhu let go of her, put the hairpin back on her head, snorted coldly, and said to Madam Zhou, "Did you hear that?"
"Oh it's you!"
Madam Zhou's eyes turned red and she rushed over and strangled Mudan's neck.
Mother Cao struggled to her feet and shouted to the thugs in the building: "Hurry... Go and take them down!"
Li Mingzhu picked up a stool and smashed it hard at the thugs.
Zhang Rulan followed suit, picked up the vase on the shelf and threw it at the enemy.
Soon, the thugs fell to the ground. Mother Cao looked at Li Mingzhu approaching step by step and screamed in fear: "Don't come over here!!!"
Li Mingzhu grabbed Mother Cao's collar and slapped her several times.
"what!!!"
Mother Cao spat out a mouthful of blood foam onto the ground, mixed with two bloody teeth.
On the other side, Madam Zhou was about to strangle Mudan to death. Li Mingzhu pinched Madam Zhou's wrist, and Madam Zhou felt pain and immediately let go.
"What do you want?"
Madam Zhou looked at Li Mingzhu with fear.
Although the matter has been made clear and she taught the wrong person a lesson, she still acted rather arrogantly because her father was an official of General Weiyuan.
Li Mingzhu disliked her and ripped open her collar.
"What are you doing!!!"
Madam Zhou screamed and covered her clothes desperately.
"You know being stripped isn't a good thing," Li Mingzhu grabbed her hair. "My sister has been bullied like this by you. Tell me, how should I make amends?"
Madam Zhou said stubbornly: "I didn't do it on purpose. Who told her not to say it herself?"
Hearing this, Zhang Rulan was so angry that tears came to her eyes.
"I told you it wasn't me, but you didn't believe me!"
Li Mingzhu glared at Madam Zhou, who shuddered with fear and pointed at Madam Cao and Mudan, saying, "It was them! They deceived me!"
Li Mingzhu snorted coldly: "I'm talking about you! You still want five thousand taels of silver? Dream on, dreams can bring you anything!"
Madam Zhou rubbed her face, which was bruised and swollen by Li Mingzhu, and stopped talking.
Li Mingzhu squatted in front of her: "Actually, this matter is not solely the woman's fault. If your man could control his lower body, would this happen?"
Madam Zhou looked up and looked at Li Mingzhu.
Li Mingzhu stared into Madam Zhou's eyes and spoke in a bewitching tone, "You're fighting here, ruining your reputation, while the man who did the wrong thing hides away and puts all the blame on women. Just because he begged a few times, you're going to let him go like that?"
Listening to Li Mingzhu's words, Madam Zhou's eyes flickered, and it was obvious that she had heard them.
Li Mingzhu continued, "Let me ask you, does your husband know that you came to Zuichunlou?"
Madam Zhou nodded: "I know."
"Tsk tsk tsk," Li Mingzhu said with disdain, "He acts so affectionate towards women outside of you, but when he finds out you're here to cause trouble, he's like a coward, afraid to show up. Tell me, if you're wronged in the future, will he stand up for you?"
Madam Zhou widened her eyes when she heard this.
"Men only become honest when they're in a coffin," Li Mingzhu smiled. "A man with unfaithful intentions is like a torn piece of clothing. The best way to deal with it is to throw it away. With your looks and family background, buying a new piece of clothing shouldn't be difficult, right?"
"Besides," Li Mingzhu said meaningfully, "when you find a mouse in the house, it means that there is already a nest of mice in your home!"
Madam Zhou:!!!
She staggered to her feet and gritted her teeth, "You're right, I won't let him go!" As she spoke, she was about to walk towards the gate.
Li Mingzhu pulled her back and said, "My sister has suffered so much injustice, and you want to leave so easily?"
Madam Zhou glanced at Zhang Rulan, took out the purse and handed it to Li Mingzhu.
Li Mingzhu didn't take it, but just broke off a corner of the table next to her and crushed it into powder.
Mrs. Zhou was frightened. She gritted her teeth and took off all the gold, silver and jade jewelry on her body, stuffing them into Li Mingzhu's hands. "Is that enough?"
Li Mingzhu took a look at one of the jade bracelets. It was of very good quality and could be worth at least two or three hundred taels, not to mention the other jewelry.
She looked at Zhang Rulan, who nodded slightly.
Li Mingzhu turned sideways and made way.
When Madam Zhou passed by, Li Mingzhu smiled and said, "I've always been willing to help others, and I'm especially good at castrating men. Madam, if you need any help, remember to come find me at the weaving and embroidery workshop!"
Madam Zhou was shocked by Li Mingzhu's words. She staggered and only managed to hold on to the table in time to avoid falling.
She looked at Li Mingzhu with a puzzled expression, and after a long while she managed to say, "I understand."
After saying that, he opened the door and ran out hurriedly, as if there was a ghost chasing him.
Li Mingzhu followed and saw her kicking the servants a few times and leaving angrily.
Li Mingzhu closed the door again, walked up to Mother Cao, and looked down at her: "I want Yulan's indenture!"
Mother Cao covered her face and glared at Li Mingzhu with resentment: "You're dreaming! What do you think my Zuichunlou is? There's someone behind me!"
Li Mingzhu sneered, bent down, and approached Mother Cao and said, "I know, isn't it the Minister of Personnel Fang Yan?"
"Ho!"
Mother Cao looked at Li Mingzhu in horror, trying hard to swallow the scream that was about to burst out.
On the surface, Zuichunlou is the property of the Zhou family, a southern merchant family. It is usually Zhou Zhao, a son of the Zhou family, who appears in public, but the person behind the scenes is actually the Minister of Personnel Fang Yan.
When Zhang He was caught up in a factional dispute, his boss was Fang Yan.
In the original plot, Zhang Rulan followed the rebel army into the imperial city. After Huang Tiancheng ascended the throne, Zhang Rulan took control of the real power and re-investigated the affairs of the Zhang family, and then dug out the Fang family.
The original body also knew about this matter, and she followed Zhang Rulan to watch the Fang family's execution.
Li Mingzhu grabbed Mother Cao's hair and forced her to turn sideways. "Tell me, if Fang Yan knew you were doing things under his name, would he let you go?"
