The guards around him couldn't stand it anymore. This Sima Yue really thought he was an important person. He even looked down on the gatekeeper. Wasn't this blatantly saying that he was also a useless waste?

How could he tolerate this? Li San had been in the capital for so many years, and people on the street called him Third Master. How dare this brat, who was still wet behind the ears, look down on them. Was he looking for death?

Sure enough, Li San's words completely infuriated Sima Yue. His pitiful self-esteem was trampled to pieces, and he was belittled in front of Li Qingwan. This made Sima Yue furious and he exploded immediately!

"What are you talking about, old man? You look down on me. My ancestors are from a marquisate!"

Sima Yue still brought up the fact that it used to be a marquisate, but Li San was well-informed and didn't buy his talk at all. He spat directly on Sima Yue's clothes, "Bah, what a shitty marquisate. It's been in decline for three generations, and you still think you're a prince? Wake up, if your wife didn't help you find connections, no one would look down on you even if you went to sweep the streets, do you believe it?"

Li San's words made Li Qingwan feel even more relieved. She was very happy to see Sima Yue being scolded. As expected, Sima Yue refused to swallow his anger in front of a woman and immediately waved his fist at Li San...

"You are looking for death, old man!"

"You still want to fight? Fine, Old Li will play with you!"

"Stop fighting, stop fighting!"

Li Qingwan shouted to stop fighting, but Sima Yue had already started fighting with Li San. Sima Yue had not practiced martial arts in these years, and his body was not as strong as before. He was knocked to the ground by Li San with just three punches, but in order not to embarrass himself in front of Li Qingwan, he refused to admit defeat!

"I'm going to kill you today!"

"Ayue, calm down!"

"Okay, brat, you want to fight, right? Come here, brothers!"

Soon, all the brothers who received the call from the east, south, west and north came and beat Sima Yue wildly with their fists and feet. However, Li Qingwan didn't want to stop the fight at all when she saw this. Just fight, fight. If you can cripple him, that would be even better!

"Stop hitting me, stop hitting me, sir, how are you?"

"What are you doing?"

The police arrived and soon the group of people ran away. Sima Yue had been knocked to the ground unconscious, with blood oozing from his nose and mouth.

"Madam, the young master was beaten to death!"

Li Qingwan had seen enough of the drama, so she snorted coldly, "How can a villain die so easily after thousands of years of torture?"

After saying that, she strode forward to check Sima Yue's condition and found that his ribs were broken. This made her feel even more relieved. Li San really helped her do what she wanted to do.

However, as Sima Yue's wife, she couldn't show it too obviously, so she immediately looked at Zi'er and said, "Come here, carry the young master back to find a doctor first."

On the first day of Sima Yue's official career, he was beaten unconscious. This incident soon reached the ears of Old Madam Sima. When she learned that her son was beaten up at the East Gate, she almost got up out of anger...

"What did you say? The young master was beaten. Who did it?"

"Madam, calm down. Li Qingwan has already sent the young master back. The doctor has also seen him. Don't worry."

"What on earth is going on? I was assigned a task, so why was I beaten on the first day?"

"Don't worry, old lady. Ah Yue will be fine!"

Outside, Xiuzhu strode in and looked directly at Madam Sima who was lying on the bed. When Madam Sima saw Xiuzhu's disgusting look, she felt it was very unlucky!

"It's all because of you, this jinx. Ever since you came in, nothing good has happened to Ah Yue!"

Xiuzhu has completely turned evil, so she naturally won't quarrel with the old lady. She just bowed to the old lady and said, "Old lady, calm down. This matter is related to Li Qingwan. How could it be that Xiuzhu caused her husband to be beaten?"

"What did you say?"

Madam Sima was also furious. "Someone, help me up. I want to go see my son!"

She was worried that her son would become disabled like herself. If that were the case, would the Sima family still have a future?

"Old Madam, think about it. This job was done by Li Qingwan. Now that Ah Yue is in trouble, shouldn't she be asked to take responsibility for it?"

"Li Qingwan!"

Madam Sima was so angry that she wanted to slap Li Qingwan, "Where is that woman now?"

"My dear old lady, she hasn't come back yet."

"Not back yet?"

Old Madam Sima became more and more nervous. What kind of job did Li Qingwan find for A Yue? Why was he beaten? Who did it? Who dared to be so cruel to her son?

"Old lady, please be careful and let Xiuzhu serve you."

Xiuzhu knew that if she wanted to gain a foothold in the Sima family, she had to regain the trust of old lady Sima, so she took this opportunity to show her courtesy and make the old lady believe her so that they could deal with that woman Li Qingwan together!

"Go away. I'm annoyed when I see you."

Old Madam Sima asked Nanny Zhang to help her up. She wanted to sit in a wheelchair to see how her son was doing. Xiuzhu was left out again, which made her hate the old woman even more, but she did not get angry.

She has to endure, only by enduring can she succeed!

"Old lady, please go slowly. Xiuzhu will push you."

Old Madam Sima originally hated Xiuzhu. She looked down on her background and her as a person. If she had not given birth to her eldest grandson, she would never have allowed her to stay.

But Xiuzhu came after her and wanted to serve her. For Run'er's sake, she agreed to let her push her. "Xiuzhu, I can let you go to see Ayue, but you must not say the wrong thing, especially in front of Li Qingwan, understand?"

Xiuzhu was naturally very happy to see the old woman give in, "Don't worry, old lady, Xiuzhu knows what to do."

"It's good that you know. Please push me to see how Ah Yue is doing."

Look, Xiuzhu diligently pushed Madam Sima to see Sima Yue. Although the old lady looked anxious, Xiuzhu was very calm. She felt more and more that all this was Li Qingwan's evil scheme.

What about helping A Yue enter the official career? It sounds better than singing. In order to help A Yue, she even gave away her gold bracelet, but she didn't expect that she would get such a shameful job in return.

Li Qingwan did it on purpose, she no longer loved Sima Yue!

But she saw through all this and it was useless. The mother and son still had illusions about Li Qingwan and naively believed that the stepping stone was stable and obedient!

"Madam, Xiuzhu has something to say. I wonder if I should say it or not?"

She still wanted to remind Madam Sima that Li Qingwan was no longer a stepping stone that they could use. She was now taking every step carefully, and what she wanted was the entire Sima family!

Madam Sima was now completely focused on her son and had no time to pay attention to Xiuzhu. She raised her eyes and rolled her eyes at her, "If you know you shouldn't say that, just shut up!"

Xiuzhu: “…”

Old man, one day I will make you regret treating me like this!

Dusk fell and a drizzle began to fall.

In Sima Yue's room, when Madam Sima and Xiuzhu arrived, Ah Fu was crying beside the bed. Madam Sima was also very nervous, "Ah Yue, Ah Yue!"

"Mom, I'm fine."

"My son, who beat you like this? Tell me and I will vent my anger on you."

Madam Sima had only one son, so she naturally felt sorry for his situation, but Sima Yue found it difficult to speak. How could he talk about such a shameful thing?

"Mom, don't ask."

"How can I not ask where your wife is?

Madam Sima wanted to ask Li Qingwan what was going on. Didn't she find a job? This was supposed to be a happy event, so why was she beaten like this? Where would the Sima family put their face? Wouldn't they be laughed at if it got out?

"Mother, Qingwan is back."

Outside, Li Qingwan and her men came back. When Madam Sima saw Li Qingwan coming back, she was furious and immediately began to blame her, "You still remember to come back? Look at what your husband has been beaten into."
