Hitting Face

“Meimei!” 

Xie er laoye exclaimed, reaching out to support Xie shi.  

Shaking off Xie er laoye’s hand, Xie shi raised her hand and slapped her brother. 

Pa! 

The slap landed painfully on Xie er laoye’s face. 

Xie er laoye was stunned silly by this slap. 

He covered his face, looking at Xie shi in disbelief. 

Ever since Xie jia began to flourish, had Xie er laoye ever been subjected this kind of humiliation? His expression changed immediately. 

“Meimei’s anger is so great that you even dare to hit me.” 

Xie shi snorted coldly, pointing at Xie er laoye and cursing. “Incompetent!” Then she pointed at Xie Xian. “Rubbish! You can’t achieve anything but spoil everything. All the hopes I placed on you are in vain. How did you repay me? My face has been lost by you pair of father and son.” 

The more Xie shi spoke, the greater her fury was. She ran over and slapped Xie Xian’s face. 

Pa! 

With this slap, Xie shi exhausted all her strength.  

Xie Xian couldn’t help but fall on the ground. On his face was left behind and imprint of her palm. 

At that time, a yellow handkerchief fell out from inside Xie Xian’s clothes.  

Xie shi glanced at it. 

She picked it up, seeing the character ‘yuè’ (玥) embroidered on it. 

Xie shi’s hand trembled. She stared at Xie Xian incredulously. “You, you…” 

Xie shi couldn’t ask out loud, because she was afraid that once she asked, matters that didn’t exist would be described vividly, and Xie jia‘s father and son would then cling on to her. 

Ah…! 

Xie shi picked up a stool as if to throw it at Xie Xian. 

Xie er laoye was terrified, “Meimei, calm down!” 

He hurriedly stopped her, snatching the stool from her and putting it down. 

“Meimei, if you have something to say then converse properly. After all, Xie Xian is your nephew!” 

Xie shi sneered.  

“If he weren’t my nephew, do you think he could still kneel here unscathed? My husband needn’t have taken action. I would have chopped him up a long time ago. Get lost! You two father and son get out from my provincial governor’s fu! Don’t let me see you ever again.” 

“Meimei…” 

“Who is your meimei?” 

Xie shi pointed her finger at Xie er laoye. “Get out! Will you leave by yourself or should I force you out?” 

Xie er laoye had a dazed expression, looking like man’s best friend, the flesh on his cheeks continuously twitching. “Meimei, at this juncture, getting angry and creating a scene will not solve the problem at all.” 

Xie shi smiled coldly, ridicule clear in her eyes.  “At this juncture, does er ge think that I will sit down with you and amiably discuss how to solve this problem?” 

Xie er laoye frowned. “Must meimei be so heartless? We are full-blooded siblings. And don’t forget that the task given by da ge hasn’t seen any progress.” 

Xie shi: Hehe! 

She raised her head, saying indifferently, “Er ge heard what my husband said. The marriage alliance between Gu jia and Xie jia is no longer possible. I advise er ge to leave the fu as early as possible. Otherwise, don’t blame me for ignoring the affection between us siblings.” 

Xie er laoye was furious. “You are threatening me!” 

Xie shi walked towards Second Master Xie step by step with a fierce expression. “So what if I threaten you? You can’t even complete such a trifling matter, so what is the use of you father and son? If Xie jia had several other brothers, with your ability, do you think eldest brother would entrust you to with important things? 

“A short-sighted, profit-hungry person lacking in morality like you would have been sent to occupy an idle, unimportant position to live out your days in your preposterous ways. As for this son of yours, right at the crucial time when the marriage was being decided, he couldn’t even control his lower body. Useless thing! Get out! You father and son get out for me!” 

When Xie shi thought of the relationship between her darling daughter and Xie Xian, the fury rose in her heart uncontrollably.  

If she didn’t have a trace of reason still left, she had the intention to kill Xie Xian directly. For Xie Xian, this kid, even death wasn’t enough punishment. While talking about marriage with Gu Jiu, he had been flirting with her treasured daughter on the other hand. 

Ah!!! She wanted to hack this kid to pieces. 

Xie Xian was still kneeling on the ground, saying eagerly, “Aunt, I have been wronged, you must believe me, I…” 

Pa! 

The teacup was thrown on the ground. 

Tea splashed everywhere, all over Xie Xian’s head, face and clothes. 

Xie Xian was frightened. He looked at Xie shi, timidity in his eyes. 

Xie shi’s eyes were murderous. “Get lost! If you get out of the provincial governor’s fu, I will regard this matter as if it never happened. Otherwise, don’t blame this aunt for disregarding familial affection.” 

“Good, good, good!” 

Xie er laoye pointed at Xie shi angrily. “Meimei has become so majestic that I don’t dare to offend you. I will report to da ge about this matter as it is and let him make the decision.” 

Xie shi sneered. “As er ge wishes. Gao Sanfu, arrange some men to pack up Xie laoye’s luggage. The father and son must leave the provincial governor’s fu today.”  

Gao Sanfu stood at the doorway, neither agreeing nor disagreeing. 

Xie shi was furious, cursing at Gao Sanfu, “Are you deaf? Why are you still standing there blankly?” 

“Xiaode obeys. Er laoye, biao shaoye, please.” 

Gao Sanfu had no choice. Seeing that Xie shi was determined, he could only handle matters according to her instructions. 

Xie er laoye was extremely resentful, staring at Xie shi fiercely. He then flung his sleeves and left. 

Xie Xian stood up from the ground and followed Xie er laoye out, feeling dejected. 

Once everyone left, Xie shi couldn’t support it anymore and almost fell on the ground.  

Chun He was alert and so quickly supported Xie shi up. “Taitai, are you alright?” 

Xie shi massaged her forehead, her body feeling weak. 

“I’m fine. Help me back to shang fang.” 

“Yes!” 

Xie shi hurriedly returned to shang fang.  

On the way, they ran into many servants and pozi. Seeing Xie shi looking pale, it was inevitable that they would gossip in private.  

In such a big provincial governor’s fu, it was impossible to hide many secrets. 

Before long, everyone knew about Xie Xian had slept with a prostitute but didn’t have money to settle the account. He was therefore arrested, creating big scandal. Even laoye and madam lost face because of this incident. 

News spread that Xie jia’s father and son were expelled from the fu. 

The servants discussed all this with excitement. Such a drama could only be seen once in a year. 

Hearing this news, Gu Yue and Gu Shan hurried to shangfang.  

“Mother, are you alright?”

Gu Yue looked worried. As she spoke, leaned towards Xie shi.  

Xie shi’s face was cold as she fixed her gaze on Gu Yue. Her eyes were like blocks of ice freezing Gu Yue to a halt.  

Gu Yue’s heart tensed as she inexplicably felt a guilty conscience. 

“Why is mother looking at me like that?” 

Xie shi stared at Gu Yue unwaveringly, and said indifferently, “Everyone withdraw. Shan’er, stay back.” 

Gu Shan was a little nervous but she nevertheless sat down obediently. 

Once all the servants left, only the three mother and daughters remained in the room. 

Xie shi’s gaze was too frightening. This was the first time that Gu Yue had ever seen her mother look at her with such indifferent eyes. 

She couldn’t help but feel aggrieved, scared and panicked. 

She called out, “Mother!” 

Pa! 

As soon as Gu Yue spoke, Xie shi’s slap landed heavily on her face.  

Gu Yue was stunned stupid. Gu Shan was also dumbfounded. 

Gu Yue covered her face as she recovered from the shock and immediately burst into tears. 

“You still have the face to cry. I want to kill you, this shameless, self-willed and lowly thing.” 

Xie shi was furious, clenching her fists. Her fists rained on Gu Yue’s face and body. 

Gu Yue fell on the ground, not speaking but crying incessantly. 

“What is the use of crying? Did you feed all the principles and rules you were taught to the dogs? I placed high hopes on you in vain. Any good thing I got I gave it to you first. And what about you? You actually did such an outrageous thing behind my back. I want to beat you to death, you shameless thing. Why did I give birth to a wretch like you?” 

How arrogant Xie shi had been before was how angry she was now. 

Her treasured daughter who she spoiled lawlessly had fallen for Xie Xian, that dissolute thing.  

What kind of vision was this? 

This deed of Gu Yue’s nearly destroyed Xie shi’s pride. 

Why did the daughter she had carefully taught and raised take a fancy to Xie Xian? 

Xie shi was not angry that Gu Yue had interacted with Xie Xian in private. Rather, she was angered that Gu Yue’s vision was so bad so much so that she had chosen Xie Xian. 

Did this not prove that her way of educating her children was a complete failure? 

She wanted to teach Gu Yue to becoming a noble daughter from a prestigious household. But in the end, Gu Yue fell for that licentious scum’s cheap tricks. 

This was a slap in the face for her! 

With her face beaten, the sound of the slaps seemed to echo around her. Her face had swollen after being beaten. 

Xie shi sneered. 

What did everything she was proud of before amount to? 

Could it be that she would forever be unable to compare with Su shi? Was her daughter not as good as Su shi’s daughter? 

No!

Absolutely not!
