Matrilocal Son-in-law Is Supreme

0The Zhou Family Manor was located on the east side of the TanLoong Village, and it was said that because of the presence of an important official in the Zhou Family Ancestor, the Zhou Family Palace was previously a mansion, and had been remodeled by future generations. Although it no longer retained its ancient style, one could still feel the grandeur it once had.    

    

The manor was surrounded by a tall wall. There was a golden signboard on the entrance with the words' Zhou Mansion 'written on it. On both sides of the steps, there were stone lions guarding the manor.    

    

Due to the passing of Master Zhou Family, white banners and lanterns were hung inside and outside the house. During the night, the combination of the red doors and windows with the white lanterns looked extremely seductive.    

    

Fortunately, there were quite a number of servants and workers in the mansion, which added a lot of life to the huge mansion.    

    

Standing at the entrance, Zhou Xiuli's expression was complicated and sad. Qin Yi put his hand on her shoulder to comfort her.    

    

Zhou Wencai said: "Third sister, if you really don't want to go in, then …"    

    

"Since they're already here, how can they retreat?" Zhou Xiuli summoned up her courage and strode up the steps.    

    

He entered the house, passed through the front yard, and entered another door before arriving at the main yard.    

    

One of the rooms at the back of the main courtyard was arranged to be a mourning hall. The servants were busy in the courtyard and the candles in the mourning hall were flickering with smoke. At this moment, Zhou Wulue and his son were in the mourning hall.    

    

When the servants saw Zhou Wencai had arrived, they only nodded in acknowledgement. The unfamiliar faces that appeared with him made these servants glance at him more closely.    

    

"Big Brother, the old housekeeper servants are all gone?" Zhou Xiuli asked while reading.    

    

"It has been changed since a long time ago …"    

    

Zhou Xiuli was at a loss. Although this was where she was born and raised, it was no different from a stranger to come back after twenty years.    

    

"Yoh, isn't this Third Sister's family? What a rare guest." Zhou Wulue leaned against the door frame of the mourning hall and smoked.    

    

Zhou Xiuli ignored him and walked straight into the mourning hall.    

    

The others entered one after the other. When Shen Lang was the last to enter, Zhou Wulue's hand holding the cigarette trembled a few times.    

    

Within the mourning hall were the remains of Old Man Zhou, but Zhou Xiuli did not even glance at them. She just stared at the black and white portrait with a complicated expression, then she casually burnt some of the paper money.    

    

Qin Yi walked over to burn some incense and sat down with Zhou Xiuli on two chairs.    

    

"I'll go get mother." Zhou Wulue glanced at Zhou Xiuli with evil intentions before turning around to leave.    

    

Not long after, Old Mrs Zhou, supported by Zhou Wulue, came over with a walking stick.    

    

The old lady had a head of white hair, and she was thin and dry, with sunken sockets, but her eyes, hidden behind the gold-rimmed reading glasses, still shone brightly.    

    

"What, you're not even saying anything when you see my mother?" Old Mrs. Zhou said angrily to Zhou Xiuli.    

    

Zhou Xiuli crossed her arms in front of her chest and said with a cold expression, "Mom."    

    

"Mother …" Qin Yi stood up in embarrassment and greeted.    

    

"Oh, the whole family is here quite neatly, aren't you happy that the old man is dead?" But seeing that this old woman is still in high spirits, I might have let you down again! " Old Madam Zhou's words were rather harsh.    

    

"Grandmother." Zhou Ping walked over and called out to the old lady.    

    

The old lady beamed, "Ah, good grandson."    

    

Zhou Wulue coughed dryly and gave his son a meaningful glance. Zhou Ping immediately understood and said to Old Mrs Zhou with a wronged expression, "Grandma, someone is bullying me …"    

    

"What?" Hurry up and tell Grandma that she'll make the decision for you! "    

    

Old Mrs Zhou knocked her walking stick on the ground. "Who dares to bully my darling grandson?!"    

    

"That's them." Zhou Ping pointed at Zhou Xiuli and the others: "First Aunt Zhou Xiuli's son-in-law injured me, then Aunt even scolded my mother, but in the end …" But her son-in-law actually threw my mom out the door, and my mom broke her arm! "    

    

"There's actually such a thing!" Old Mrs Zhou was so angry that her glasses almost fell off her face.    

    

While Old Mrs Zhou was still angry, Zhou Wulue took out his phone and sent a message sneakily.    

    

Shen Lang's movements were detected by Shen Lang. Just as he was wondering if this guy was up to something, he heard Old Mrs Zhou shout: "Someone, come! Take down Zhou Xiuli, the son-in-law! "    

    

In the past, their families would always have a group of people who watched over their courtyard. Even though the era was different, there were still a group of people like this in Zhou Family Palace.    

    

Their relationship had changed, but their duties and responsibilities didn't have much of a difference. With Old Mrs Zhou's order, eight muscular men immediately appeared out of nowhere.    

    

"Him!" Zhou Ping pointed at Shen Lang.    

    

Neither Qin Yi nor Zhou Xiuli said a word when they saw that Old Mrs Zhou was only pointing at Shen Lang. Only Qin Mingyue shouted to Old Mrs Zhou, "Wait! Grandmother … Are you going to vent your anger on my husband without asking why? "    

    

Old Mrs Zhou looked annoyed. "Oh, so you're Xiu-Li's daughter. You didn't call me that when you saw me just now. Ah, forget it. I feel uncomfortable listening to you call me grandma, so it's better that you don't call me that!"    

    

Old Mrs Zhou didn't like her own daughter to begin with. She naturally had no feelings for her granddaughter and grandson-in-law, not to mention that her second daughter-in-law had been beaten up by others.    

    

"Grandmother …" "I …"    

    

Qin Mingyue wanted to say something, but Shen Lang stopped her: "Saying more is useless. We are worse than outsiders in her eyes. Even if she knows it's not my fault, she will still protect me."    

    

"Old lady." Shen Lang said calmly to Old Mrs Zhou, "It's not good to cause trouble in front of the body of the deceased Old Master, right?"    

    

Old Mrs Zhou held up her glasses. "This damned old man of mine, when I told him to go east when he was still alive, he wouldn't dare go west. Now that he's dead and lying here, it's just a lump of rotten meat. Hit my daughter-in-law and grandson, that's the same as Hitting me. If I don't skin you alive, others will think that my Zhou Family is easy to bully! "    

    

Shen Lang looked around at the guards and said, "With these people, they probably won't even be able to break my fingernails. What do you think, second uncle? "    

    

Zhou Wulue's face flashed with a playful look: "Young man, don't be so arrogant just because you have some skills, don't think that us country folk only know how to fight and kill. Let me ask you, is it because you were worried that I would vent my anger on my big brother tonight, that's why your whole family came here? "    

    

Shen Lang cursed inwardly. He had felt that something was wrong earlier, but he did not think too much about it. Now it seemed that Zhou Wulue had indeed played a trick.    

    

Noticing the slight change in Shen Lang's expression, Qin Yi, Qin Mingyue and the other two looked at each other as if they didn't realize something was wrong. Zhou Wulue proudly waved his phone, "My men are already at Zhou Wencai's house. What do you think I want to do?"    

    

Zhou Wencai was dumbfounded. "Wu Zi, what do you mean by this?"    

    

"What do you mean? Hehe! "Of course it's to teach Third Sister a lesson, and at the same time let her have a good memory of what happens when she takes advantage of the situation. If you want to blame someone, blame yourself for getting too close to them!"    

    

Zhou Wulue's expression was ferocious as he dialed a number with his phone: "Alright, you guys make your move."

A few seconds later, the sound of an explosion came from the distance. Everyone looked towards the source of the sound and saw the flames in the night sky.    

    

"Beautiful!" Zhou Wulue clapped his hands and laughed. "I just noticed how spectacular two cars can be when they burn up. Oh right, Big Brother, I don't think your family has any valuable items, so don't be in such a hurry to go back and save the fire. It's not a pity to burn the house.    

    

Zhou Wencai's mind rumbled: "You …" You burnt down my house!? "    

    

"That's right, your house, the three sisters' two cars —" Zhou Wulue opened his fingers with a smile. It's all gone. "
