He was hacked to death! Reborn and married to the Grand Secretary, his family wept with regret.

"Yang'er!"

The old lady wiped away her tears, but raised her voice and asked, "What do you have to say now?"

As she cried, she pointed with trembling hands at Li Huai Ren, then at Luo Qing Fan, and finally at An Wu Yang.

“Huai Ren is here, and Qing Fan is here too. Speak a word of justice for your great-grandmother. Ever since Yang'er came into the family, have I ever said a harsh word to her?”

"I consider myself a loving elder, and I believe I have been a dutiful son to you!"

"How could you do something so heartless?"

At this point, the old lady was heartbroken and slammed her hands on the bed before turning back to continue questioning An Wuyang.

“Yang’er, a few days ago I begged you to take care of the dinner with the Ningyuan Marquis’s family for the sake of family harmony, but you refused to do it.”

"I just thought you were upset. Luckily, Qingfan took over this matter, so I won't force you!"

“Yesterday, En’er and I both fell ill. I also heard that you were unwilling to come to my room to take care of me. In the end, Huai Ren helped me take my medicine, and Huai Ren and Qing Fan stayed with us for half the night.”

"And now this has happened again. In the end, En'er is also your own child. Even tigers don't eat their cubs. How can you scheme against your own child over such a petty squabble?"

The old lady's crying and fussing served as a way of settling the matter.

Without saying a word, Li Huai-ren took the whip that had just been sent by someone and angrily swung it at An Wu-yang.

"What else do you have to say?"

“I hit you in front of your grandmother today not because I intended to mistreat you, but because you went too far. If I continue to indulge you, I’m afraid I don’t know what kind of trouble you will cause.”

"An Wuyang, kneel down!"

"I'm going to punish you according to family rules right now!"

Li Huai-ren shouted and raised his whip to strike An Wu-yang.

An Wuyang twisted his body to avoid the beating and then grabbed Li Huai Ren's arm.

"You think you can lay a hand on me?"

After snatching the whip, An Wuyang pushed Li Huai Ren, who lost his balance and fell backward. Fortunately, Luo Qingfan caught him from behind, preventing him from falling to the ground.

"An Wuyang, how dare you defy family rules?"

"Your grandmother has always doted on you, yet you defied family rules in front of her. If you continue like this, I will kick you out of the house and never let En'er acknowledge you again!"

Enraged, Li Huai-ren pointed at An Wu-yang and threatened him with gritted teeth, suggesting he had been planning this all along.

"Kick them out of the house?"

"Don't you even look at whose place you're living in now!"

This family has repeatedly humiliated me; their shameless behavior is simply appalling.

In the past, out of consideration for the old lady's gentle nature, An Wuyang never considered confronting her directly.

But now that she's also following these people in distorting the truth and disregarding right and wrong, there's no need to save face for her anymore.

An Wuyang walked straight to the old lady's side and pulled Li En out of her arms.

"what you do!"

"Yang'er, you can't harm En'er!"

The old lady shouted a couple of times in excitement, then pretended to faint.

All she could hear was An Wuyang's voice pouring down from above her head.

"If Rean dares to make the old lady faint today, I will use your family rules to beat this unfilial son to death!"

The old lady immediately regained her senses: "Huai Ren, Qing Fan... quick... you must quickly bring En'er back!"

The old lady trembled, wanting to faint but daring not to. An Wuyang looked so frightening. If he really attacked Li En, what would happen if he got seriously injured?

The death of a child is not a big deal, but Li En is a child who will surely amount to something in the future. Even if he is not the eldest son, he will be able to stand on his own when he returns to the Marquis's mansion.

The old lady was counting on this child to save face for her!

An Wuyang had already guessed that the old lady was faking it, so he stopped paying her any attention.

Li Huai-ren rushed forward to snatch the person, but was driven back by An Wu-yang with a whip.

Then, she grabbed Rean and scolded him, "I'm asking you, what exactly happened in the classroom today? And why did the teacher hit you?"

"Tell me the whole truth, or I will not let you off!"

Faced with An Wuyang's icy, piercing gaze, Li En wanted to cry but dared not. He could only tearfully plead with Luo Qingfan, trembling, "Aunt Qingfan, save me..."

Seeing that he was still stubborn, An Wuyang simply dragged Li En out of the old lady's room.

"If you don't tell the truth today, I'll skin you alive!"

Regardless of whether anyone was watching, An Wuyang ripped off Li En's outer garment and lashed him with her whip...
