Chapter 498: Domineering

“Report it to the officials? What officials?!”

When Old Madam Wan heard Yuan Niang’s words, she jumped out like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.

She glared at Yuan Niang as she scolded, “Don’t interfere in our family’s matters!

Gui Niang is my daughter, so wherever 1 take her is our family’s business!

Even if the officials come, can they stop parents from disciplining their own daughter?”

“In that case, you’re admitting that you took Song Zhou away?”

Yuan Niang wasn’t angered by Old Madam Wan’s scolding. She only smiled at Old Madam Wan and said, “Yes, the government won’t interfere in your family matters!

But is Song Zhou still a member of the Zhou family?

She has already married into the Song family and her surname is Song!

It’s inappropriate for you guys to kidnap her and hide her like this, is it?!”

“Whether it’s appropriate or not is not up to you to decide!” Old Madam Wan spat at Yuan Niang. “What does a woman like her know?

That bastard from the Song family did such a heartless thing. Should my daughter stay single for the rest of her life for him?

She’s alone now and doesn’t have a son by her side.

We want to help her find a family to marry into so that she can have someone to rely on. This is for her own good!

We’re her parents. How can we harm her?”

The more Old Madam Wan spoke, the more confident she felt. She was doing this for the children. What was wrong with that?

“According to the laws of the imperial court, the first time a woman marries, she follows her family’s wishes. When she remarries, she will follow her heart.” As Yuan Niang looked at Old Madam Wan, her tone couldn’t help but become heavier. “1 won’t waste time with you here. I’ll ask you now. Are you going to give me Song Zhou’s whereabouts or not?!”

“So what if I don’t? Who do you think you are? What right do you have to interfere in our family’s matters?

Get lost!

Get lost!

Otherwise, we’ll really report it to the authorities and you’ll get arrested!

“Stop trying to threaten me. I’ve old, so I’ve seen all sorts of things already!”

Although Old Madam Wan felt a little afraid, she still had to keep up appearances.

Yuan Niang couldn’t be bothered to waste her breath on Old Madam Wan anymore and took a step to the side.

The servant, who had been waiting behind her, also took two steps forward aggressively. After he took out a stack of paper that looked like a contract and shook it at Old Madam Wan and the others, he sneered and scolded loudly, “You guys are really bold!

The Song family’s shop became leverage for Song Jianxing’s debt!

“Now, you’ve kidnapped Song Zhou and refuse to let her go. Do you want to become enemies with our general’s residence?”

“How is this possible? How could Song Jianxing do such a thing? Why didn’t we know?”

Looking at the contract in the servant’s hand, the Zhou family was dumbfounded. Who would have thought that the Song family’s assets, which seemed to be at the tip of their fingertips, would suddenly slip away?

Not only that, but the most important thing was that they seemed to have provoked a tough opponent that the Zhou family couldn’t afford to provoke…

“Madam is kind-hearted. She thought that someone had to handle Old Madam Guo’s funeral, so she agreed to let Song Zhou stay at home and help with the funeral first.

You guys actually took advantage of this opportunity to kidnap her!

Are you guys tired of living?”

The servant’s attitude was quite domineering as he pointed at Old Madam Wan and the others and scolded them. He even showed signs of wanting to fight them.

“Actually, it’s fine if you don’t hand her over.

However, you have to pay for Song Zhou!

“Give us 50 taels of silver and we’ll leave immediately. We won’t pester you guys anymore!

Madam isn’t an unreasonable person. If you want to keep her and reunite the family, you have to pay the ransom. Madam definitely won’t make things difficult for you guys.

However, if you’re unwilling to pay, you have to hand her over!

Madam is kind, but she’s not a fool.

Don’t think of taking advantage of her!”

“How do we know where Guiniang went?

Yes, we went to the Song family in the afternoon. Something happened to our family and we were short of money, so we wanted to go over and ask her for some money to save our family.

However, who would have thought that girl would be so vicious and ruthless?!

At that time, there was some conflict between us, but she refused to give us money, we had no other choice! Therefore, we came back at that time.

If you don’t believe me, go to our neighbors and ask them. When we came back from outside, there were people sitting at the entrance of the alley!

“You’ll know if we brought Guiniang back or not!”

Before Old Madam Wan could speak, the eldest son of the Zhou family looked at Yuan Niang anxiously as he tried his best to explain.

“That’s right. Perhaps she ran away because she had too many debts and didn’t want to go to your wife’s house to be a servant.”

The Zhou family’s eldest son’s wife also hurriedly defended her husband.

They tried to do their best to push the blame onto Song Zhou.

“That’s right. Even if you’re from the general’s residence, you have to be reasonable, right? Why should the Zhou family pay back the money the Song family owes?

Besides, you don’t have any evidence to prove that we took Guiniang away, do you?

Therefore, you guys can’t falsely accuse innocent people!”

Old Madam Wan nodded repeatedly as she explained.

“Madam said that there’s no need to talk to them anymore. Since they’re unwilling to tell the truth, let’s get the people from the Imperial City government to bring the Zhou family’s men back and interrogate them. Wouldn’t we know everything after that?”

At this moment, Bai Guo came in from outside the courtyard and leaned against Yuan Niang. In a voice that everyone in the courtyard could hear, she sneered and said, “The general said that since these people won’t shed tears until they see the coffin, we’ll send them to the officials to endure torture first!

From the looks of it, since they’re so stubborn, they should be able to withstand it!”

“No, I’m not going! What right do you have to arrest us?”

Seeing the people from the Imperial City government rushing in from outside the courtyard, the Zhou family’s eldest son and the others were immediately frightened, especially when they saw that the chain had already been lifted by the people who were about to put the hood around their necks. The Zhou family’s eldest son let out a miserable scream and turned around to run towards the house..
