Chapter 484: Imposing Aura

Seeing that Xiao Baoxin was not going to let it go, Madam Zhou could not sit
still anymore.
She had always heard that this Xiao Baoxin was arrogant and despotic. He would definitely not nag when he could fight. She thought that since it was her mother-in-law’s birthday, the two families would not bring it up to the table no matter how unhappy they were. They would even want to give each other face.
Who knew that Xiao Baoxin did not even care about his face and wanted to tear
them apart on the spot.
“I don’t understand what you’re saying. What did you hear?”
Madam Zhou smiled faintly.” Who doesn’t know that the Xie family has a hand in Jiankang City? Anyone who provokes the Xie family will lose their official position. Who dares to bully the Xuxie family?”
“Who do you think has the right hand to cover the sky?” Princess Xuancheng was anxious when she heard this. She threw the teacup in front of her down and it fell in front of Madam Zhou. It broke into pieces and almost fell on the daughter-in-law beside her. They were so scared that they kept hiding.
“Where do you put our Imperial Family?”
Madam Zhou was embarrassed. Before Noble Consort Liu died, she had always kept Princess Xuancheng in the palace. The few times she went out of the palace were not related to her. After Noble Consort Liu died, the Emperor died. Princess Xuancheng was in the mourning period, so she rarely saw anyone.
Therefore, although everyone had heard of Princess Xuancheng’s arrogant and domineering reputation, they had never seen it with their own eyes.
Seeing him today, he was indeed arrogant and indulgent.
Even in the royal family, there were not many who dared to cause a ruckus in the aristocratic families. After all, they could not be compared to those who were born in the Xiantian realm. Although they were the sons and daughters of the emperor, they still had face and were afraid of being despised by the aristocratic families.
Princess Xuancheng, on the other hand, was a hothead. She would throw a tantrum whenever it was related to her.
The Strange Taoist had always said that he had a close relationship with Xiao Baoxin. This was basically the same thing, both of them had the image of a nouveau riche that could not be seen in public.
Madam Zhou did not dare to confront Xuancheng head-on.” Princess, you’ve misunderstood. I’m trying to resolve the misunderstanding with Lady Xiao. I just don’t know why she said I slandered the Xie family and bullied them. I didn’t mean to offend the princess.”
“Isn’t that so? The eldest lady has a strong personality and is skilled in martial arts. However, my Chu family is not easy to bully. Why did you treat me like this when I came to congratulate Madam Yuan on her birthday? What did I say to make the lady embarrass me in front of so many ladies?”
Madam Zhou stood up, her aura soaring like a rambow.
Yes, what did she say?
Princess Xuancheng looked at Xiao Baoxin, but she did not know either.
Except for Princess Xuancheng and Xiao Ning, most people knew what was going on. Even though he had not interacted with the Zhou Consortium today and had said these things, these things had spread in every family. What they didn’t expect was that Xiao Baoxin would actually be so domineering as to spread this matter out on such an occasion today.
In the past, when aristocratic families interacted with each other, how could they not touch their teeth? It was not that there were no enemies, but in the future, wouldn’t they interact as they should?
They were all big families with complicated relationships. If you really calculated it, you wouldn’t understand.
Therefore, the great clans also liked to interact with the same noble clans. They had a sense of propriety when interacting with each other. If they didn’t deal with each other, they would at most insinuate and point it out.
For someone like Xiao Baoxin to shed all pretense of cordiality like this was simply too rare.
Everyone was shocked, but no one was willing to speak up for Madam Zhou. If it was someone else, it would be fine, but the matter of reconciling the mud would be over. The problem was that this fellow was Xiao Baoxin, so he better not let his guard down. If he were to be dragged out by others and be robbed, he would be embarrassed.
Even if the Ning County Lord wanted to make fun of Xiao Baoxin, she did not dare to stand up and make a fuss when she saw that Princess Xuan Cheng was clearly standing on Xiao Baoxin’s side. She was arrogant, but not stupid. She was not stupid enough to argue with the real royal princess and the emperor’s biological sister.
Moreover, she had something on her mind and was restless. At most, she could only sit at the side and watch the show. She could not be bothered with the Xie and Chu families.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Xiao Miaorong turned around and left. She didn’t need to wave the flag and shout at the front, but she was still needed later on. If this mess was made, her sister wouldn’t be able to explain it to the Xie family. She had to have an elder to say and support her.
He immediately returned to the main house to look for Madam Xie.
There were too many people, and Xiao Miaorong was afraid that if others heard it, it would spoil the situation, so she asked Xie Furen to speak to the side. Madam Xie and the Xie family were in-laws, so she was naturally arranged to sit at the main seat next to Madam Yuan.
Xiao Miaorong had always been straightforward, so when she had something on her mind, she would inevitably show it on her face. This made Madam Yuan ask,”What happened?”
Madam Xie whispered,” That sister-in-law of mine, Third Lady’s mother, originally said that she would come with me. However, she sent me a letter at the last minute and asked me to come first. She hasn’t shown up until now. Third Lady might be anxious and I don’t know what happened.””
Madam Yuan nodded and didn’t say anything else.
Xie Furen was pulled to a comer by Xiao Miaorong. Without waiting for her to ask, Xiao Miaorong learned the situation in the west room,”.. What should we do now, Eldest Aunt?”
Xiao Miaorong had been with Xiao Baoxin ever since she arrived at the Xie family’s house, so she naturally didn’t hear the gossip. When she walked into the house, she didn’t hear anything. Even if the two of them were talking fiercely, there was a limit to what she could learn.
“Madam Zhou must have said something unpleasant. Otherwise, Sister is the most reasonable person. She wouldn’t have been so angry at Madam Yuan’s birthday banquet that she wanted to fall out with Madam Zhou.
Madam Xie was also secretly cursing in her heart. She thought that this was her own family, yet she dared to be so arrogant.
Even if she was pregnant, she couldn’t just fall out with her in-laws just because she was doted on.
However, what Xiao Miaorong said was definitely reasonable. Although her daughter was not to be trifled with, she was not someone who would bully others.
“This family is really rotten to the core. They won’t stop. They’ve been targeting our Jia Baoxin. In our previous life, they carried their child into the well.!”Xie Furen was also annoyed, but after staying at the side for a long time, she became eye-catching and could only call Xiao Miaorong back, “Keep an eye on him. At least don’t make a big deal out of it. If he breaks it, I’ll be here.”
With these words, Xiao Miaorong obediently slipped away. She thought that she was secretive, but in fact, she was being watched by everyone in the room. Madam Xie, where was she not the focus of everyone’s attention?
It was just that Madam Xie felt bitter in her heart and could not say anything. She was here, but what was the use? Could it be that she was going to shout that her daughter was being bullied and that they could not bully her anymore? These words weren’t pleasant to hear. If someone said that their family was bullied, someone had to believe it.
Madam Yuan was the first to sense Madam Xie’s absent-mindedness from the side, but she thought that she was thinking about the Second Madam of the Xiao family. She said,”If you’re worried, why don’t I ask my men to go to Imperial Censor Xiao’s house and ask what’s the matter?”
What could Madam Xie say? She had already forgotten about her sister-in-law. Now that Xiao Baoxin was making a scene next door, he could only use Madam Xiao as a scapegoat and nod vaguely..
