Reborn as a Landlord-Chapter 1659 - 846: Direct Confrontation (Part 2)

"Fourth Uncle, let’s get back to the main topic." Si Lang didn’t even look at Lady Zhou and continued speaking to Lian Shouxin.

It must be said, Si Lang’s way of dealing with Lady Zhou was very clever.

Lady Zhou’s skill in making unreasonable arguments was well known to the family. If anyone engaged with her and followed her thread, they would soon be led astray by her, focusing away from the main issue - how to deal with Lian Lanlan, and it would all end up unresolved.

"Yes, this is important." Lian Shouyi agreed, giving Si Lang a rather proud look, the pride of a father with such a smart son. "Old Fourth, you know the cause and effect of this, tell us what to do, and we’ll lend a hand!"

Lian Shouxin, at heart, was somewhat biased towards Lady Zhou. However, he didn’t want to indulge her unreasonable behavior too much, so he consciously or unconsciously ignored her.

"Dad, you speak, I defer to your wisdom." Lian Shouxin said to Old Master Lian.

Lian Manman nodded slightly from the side, feeling that Lian Shouxin was acting rationally. The decision-making power in the old house should be handed to Old Master Lian. As for how he would handle this matter, based on his character and usual conduct, she could guess most of it accurately.

"Old Fourth, we don’t know the full truth of this matter yet." Lady Zhou became a bit anxious and stopped wailing, "You weren’t there that day, but the entire Wang Family, although they didn’t say much, those few people all had sharp eyes. They’re not easy to deal with, and that girl seems proud. I think she wasn’t interested in us, otherwise, this matter would have been settled on the spot."

"Your eldest sister wouldn’t do such a thing. Besides, if it wasn’t for Lian Shouren ruining Yin Suo’s reputation first, none of this would have happened afterwards." At this, Lady Zhou glared fiercely at Lady He. "No matter what, you all share the same blood, and you should always remember this bond. Your father and I are still here."

"Our Lian Family isn’t the kind who bully on account of their power!"

Lady Zhou’s stance was very clear, under no circumstances should Lian Lanlan be harmed.

"We speak about loyalty to others, but do they speak about loyalty to us?" Si Lang said coldly, "Did the Lian Family benefit from others to such a degree that they speak for others? In the future, will they retire on the Kang bed of the Lian Family or go to the Old Luo’s Kang bed across the street?"

Due to a subtle, self-serving mentality, Lady Zhou always avoided direct confrontation with Si Lang. However, when Si Lang repeatedly criticized her, how could her temper tolerate it endlessly?

"You little bastard, I’m not speaking to you. I plan to retire on my own Kang bed, never counted on you. In the future, even if I fall into a well and die with no one to bury me, getting thrown into Yanggou, I still wouldn’t need you!"

"You worthless brat with barely any hair, you dare to talk back to me! I have sons, with or without you makes no difference to me! Even if your father is gone, I still have three sons. I’ll never end up in your hands!"

Lady Zhou pointed at Si Lang, glaring and cursing.

"Are you brave enough to lay a finger on me!? I’ll break your leg. If someone ends up in prison, you’d be the first to go to prison!"

Having come to this point, Lady Zhou let loose.

"Don’t any of you dare prance about." Lady Zhou pointed at Lian Shouyi and Lady He, "Who do you think is providing for you now, only you few? Prepare to choke on northwest wind. You live off me and your dad now! What are you arrogant about, truly provoke me, and I’ll kick you out with a club. If you end up begging, you’ll not even find a door!"

The room immediately fell silent, Lian Manman and Lian Yeye exchanged a look. Lady Zhou over the years had managed to keep her sons and daughters-in-law tightly in her grip, she wasn’t easily dealt with.

Lady Zhou wasn’t an ordinary person, she was someone not to be trifled with.

Of course, this was in regards to the people of the old house.

Cornered, Lady Zhou peeled back the true state of the old house now. Old Master Lian coughed repeatedly; being a more tactful person, he was also craftier than Lady Zhou. Some things, everyone knew, but they weren’t things to be said aloud.

As for the others in the room, since Lady Zhou’s words were directed at the Lian Shouyi group, Lian Shouren, Lian Jizu, and the others weren’t bothered, but Lian Shouyi and his family’s reaction was quite interesting.

Lady He looked indifferent, as if she hadn’t heard Lady Zhou’s words, or maybe she heard them, but didn’t care. Lian Shouyi’s face changed momentarily, but he soon returned to normal, swaggering and swinging his legs, as if he too was unconcerned about Lady Zhou’s words.

As for Si Lang... Si Lang quickly averted his face, but Lian Manman still saw a flash of anger and hatred in his eyes.

"...People, one can’t just act on impulse, must think twice before acting." Old Master Lian finally spoke slowly, "I’m not speaking for outsiders. Discussion of beating or prison is too much. Even if it’s someone else, not to mention your eldest sister, we shouldn’t act like this."

"Old Fourth, am I right?" Having finished, Old Master Lian asked Lian Shouxin.

"Dad, please continue." Lian Shouxin respectfully replied.

"You’re someone who does great things, understands this principle. I’m sure if Wu Lang were here, he’d agree with me." Old Master Lian nodded as he spoke.

"Grandpa, so this matter, we’re just going to let it be?" Si Lang turned back, his eyes red, and asked.
