Chapter 168 - 168 Who Is There?
168 Who Is There?
Madam Luo quickly said, “Mammy, Mrs. Xie was busy. You are only here for about a quarter of an hour. I suppose it’s not a very long time to wait. Besides, Mrs. Xie didn’t know who was looking for her, so she could decide when she would like to return, right? How can you be so unreasonable?”
“Madam, do you know what you are talking about? I am the mammy of the Jin clan. The Jin clan is an honorable family in Yuanjiang County. You’re not in a position to talk to me like that. Do you want to become our enemies?” The woman’s face was indignant, not taking what Madam Luo said seriously at all.
“Little bitch, you should feel lucky that the Jin clan has invited you! Don’t go over the line. Apologize now and you shall be forgiven.” The woman stared at Zhao Chuchu viciously.
Zhao Chuchu laughed. “What? The Jin clan is a bully? It’s my freedom to give medical treatment to whomever I want. Nobody can tell me what to do. Furthermore, what makes you think you can talk to me like that? You’re just a servant. Why don’t you go back and stay in your room instead of taking out your insecurities on me.”
“You, you… I have to teach you a good lesson today, you bitch.” The woman was furious. She got up and tried to hit Zhao Chuchu.
Zhao Chuchu turned sideways and dodged her attack. She then extended her foot to trip the woman.
The woman was caught off guard and fell hard.
“Ah!”
She screamed out loud.
She fell with a thump, making Madam Luo grimace.
Zhao Chuchu stomped on her back. “Who the fuck are you? How can you be so arrogant when you’re begging me? You’re just a servant. What makes you think you can put on an attitude in front of me?”
Then, Zhao Chuchu stepped a little harder and the woman screamed again.
Zhao Chuchu turned her over and looked down at her from above. “Will you do it again?”
“Zhao Chuchu, if you hit me today, you are hitting the Jin clan, and I want you to regret it!” the woman yelled at Zhao Chuchu. She was still tough.
Zhao Chuchu looked at Madam Luo. “Where is the Jin clan? Take me there.”
The woman thought that Zhao Chuchu was afraid and laughed coldly. “Are you afraid now? Just wait. I swear you will regret it.”
Madam Luo did not know what Zhao Chuchu was going to do, but she was still worried. “Chuchu, the Jin clan…”
She shook her head secretly, signaling Zhao Chuchu not to run to the Jin clan to mess things up.
Zhao Chuchu smiled. “Even if I’m nice, there are always people who want to make trouble. Since the Jin clan will not discipline their servants, I feel like it is only reasonable for me to talk to them to do so. Right now, they are the ones begging me, not me begging the Jin clan to do anything.”
“But…”
“You just need to tell me where the Jin clan is. I can go there myself.”
“Forget it. I’ll take you there.”
Madam Luo thought at least she was still the General’s daughter-in-law and that the Jin clan would do her a favor and talk some sense into the woman.
Zhao Chuchu picked up the woman, carried her on her shoulder, and followed Madam Luo to the Jin clan.
Originally, she wanted to drag the woman over like a dead dog.
But she was worried that she might kill her because she was old.
“Put me down!” The woman had been carried into the room by her husband like that when she was young. But now, at her age, she was carried along the streets by a woman. So, she felt extremely ashamed.
“You’d better behave yourself, or I’ll strip you of your clothes and let you wander through the streets,” Zhao Chuchu threatened coldly.
The woman did not dare to say anything.
The Jin clan was just three blocks away from the Gan clan, not far but not close either.
As a landlord, the Jin clan’s mansion was much larger than the Gan clan’s.
The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.
The Jin clan’s doorkeeper was just as arrogant.
“Who are you? You can’t just enter the Jin clan without a pass.” The person held his nose high. “Go, get out of here. I don’t remember seeing you before. You must be one of those poor relatives of the Jin clan. How shameless!”
Madam Luo’s face darkened. “I am Mrs. Gan, not some poor relative of the Jin clan.”
The doorkeeper heard her, and only then did he take a proper look at Madam Luo.
At that moment, he recognized her and quickly put on a smile. “So, you’re Mrs. Gan. I apologize. I must be tripping. Mrs. Gan, it’s my fault. Please forgive me.”
“Then, let us in,” Madam Luo said in a cold voice.
The doorkeeper smiled and said, “Of course, Mrs. Gan can go in, but I’m afraid this one here will not be allowed inside. The Jin clan doesn’t have any relatives in the countryside. The madam hasn’t been in a good mood recently. Please don’t make things difficult for me.”
His words toward Zhao Chuchu were full of contempt.
“And one more thing, the madam is the least fond of the kind of vulgar woman. Although I don’t know why Mrs. Gan brought such a person, I have to advise Mrs. Gan out of hanging out with such people. It’s not good for Mrs. Gan’s reputation.”
“This is the Jin clan’s way of treating guests, huh? First, you let an unreasonable servant invite me, then you let an ungrateful doorkeeper stop me. It seems that you don’t need any doctors. Fine, let’s go.”
Zhao Chuchu put the mammy down on the ground, turned around, and walked away.
“She is Zhao Chuchu,” said the woman, whose mouth had just been gagged. She hurriedly said to the doorkeeper, “Don’t let her go.”
When she entered the Jin clan, she decided that she would teach Zhao Chuchu a good lesson.
The doorkeeper froze for a moment before coming back to his senses. He then hurriedly stepped forward to stop Zhao Chuchu. “Since you are the doctor, hurry up and get inside. Don’t keep the madam waiting.”
Zhao Chuchu looked at the doorkeeper and smiled. “Do I look like a pushover to you?”
The doorkeeper didn’t know why he got a chill in his heart when he met Zhao Chuchu’s eyes and instinctively took a step back. “Now that the Jin clan invited you, you should feel lucky. Don’t turn us down, or you will end up miserable. You’re just a doctor, aren’t you? Who do you think you are?”
Zhao Chuchu looked at Madam Luo. “Auntie, as you can see, it’s the Jin clan who doesn’t want to show any respect!”
Zhao Chuchu kicked the doorkeeper.
The doorkeeper flew out sideways and hit the Jin clan’s door so hard that it actually broke the Jin clan’s door.
He fell to the ground and couldn’t get up for long.
The huge commotion caused the Jin clan’s guards to rush out.
“Who is there?”
Zhao Chuchu looked at the people who surrounded her. She decided that she would do something to intimidate them.
Otherwise, people would think of her as a pushover and come to take advantage of her in the future.
“Very good. That’s how you treat your guests as an honorable clan. You’re asking me for help, but you sent someone unreasonable to deal with me!” She laughed. “Since you’re being unreasonable, I think I’ll knock some sense into you so that you’ll know better.”
Before Madam Luo could even see what was going on, the Jin clan’s guards were beaten to the ground. Meanwhile, Zhao Chuchu was standing in the middle while slowly pulling back her fist.
“Where is the master of the Jin clan?” Zhao Chuchu’s words were like ice. “Do you think you get to take advantage of me just because I’m a woman and a scholar’s wife? Do you think you can call me names?”
