My Ferocious Tigress Wife
Translator: 549690339
At the entrance of Black Clothes Alley, Madam Cheng was dressed in a bean-green long dress. She had almond-shaped eyes and peach cheeks. There was a young man standing on each side.
When they saw the Xie familyâs car coming over, the two young men stopped it. They recognized the Xie familyâs emblem. Third Master Xie had personally taught them.
â Minister Xie, 1 have no other choice. 1 really have no way to ask for help, so 1 came to you. 1 hope Minister Xie will take pity on me. The four of us really have no way to survive. Otherwise, we wouldnât dare to beg in front of the Xie residenceâ¦â
âBrother, please save us!â The two boys shouted in unison.
Ming Yueâs eyelids twitched. Where did this mistress come from? She actually dared to find their master. Was she bullying their master because he was thin-skinned and easy to talk to?
Who was their brother?
âShut up!â He stood in front of the calf carriage with a fierce expression on his face. He looked like an invincible official. âWhere did this young man come from? Donât disturb the officials!â
This was the most important thing.
âAlright, donât argue.âXie Xian didnât get out of the carriage through the curtain.
â1 know that Cheng Niangzi has something to say. Why donât we go to Cheng Niangziâs restaurant and close the door before we talk again? Making a scene on the street isnât the way to solve things, donât you think so, Lady Cheng?â
A few words filled Madam Chengâs stomach with words.
Do you want to solve the problem? Yes, 1 do. However, she didnât believe that it could be resolved if it didnât blow up. She wanted to enter the Xie family. If not for the pressure, the Xie family would never let her in.
However, Xie Xian had also said that if she wanted to solve it, she had to shut her mouth.
Mrs. Cheng made up her mind. If she closed her mouth, she would close it. If he did not solve it as she wanted, she would open her mouth again. Her mouth was on her face, and she could say it whenever she wanted to.
âThen, should we go now?â She asked, but the two young men did not say anything and waited for Xie Xianâs reply.
Mother had instructed them to follow her orders and act according to her wishes.
âTwo hours later.â Xie Xian patted the carriage board. Qing Feng drove the carriage forward while Ming Yue stared at the Cheng mother and son warily, in case they suddenly pounced on them.
âWhy not go now?âCheng shi asked after realizing it, but she didnât let Xiao Mingâs sharp eyes scare her away. Instead, she followed.
âOur Lang master will say when!ââStand down, or donât blame me for being impolite.â Ming Yue said coldly.â
There was no sound in the car anymore, obviously agreeing with Mingyueâs statement.
Madam Cheng gritted her teeth.â Then Iâll wait for Minister Xie in the restaurant today.ââ
Xie Xian didnât reply. Madam Cheng looked over from afar and only turned around the corner when she couldnât see him anymore before turning around and walking away.
âMother, arenât we going to see father?âThe youngest San Lang hesitated for a long time before asking,âDoes Abba not want us anymore?â
Madam Cheng smiled coldly.â If he says he wants it, he wants it. If he says he doesnât want it, he doesnât want it. Thereâs no such thing in the world!ââ

The calf carriage arrived at the entrance of the Xie Manor. Xie Xian instructed the carriage to wait here before he went to Rong An Hall.
It was currently afternoon, and Xiao Baoxin felt refreshed after taking a nap. Seeing that Xie Xian had returned early, he hurriedly came up to him. Before he could speak, Xie Xian spoke first.
âPack up and leave the residence with me.â
Xiao Baoxin was shocked.â Where are we going?â
Her heart tightened. She did not know if something had happened in the Xiao Manor again. Xiao Baoshu had already been sent away by her father. She really did not know who else could cause trouble. It couldnât be that Xiao Baoshu, who was guarding the tomb far away, had caused trouble again, right?
â Donât worry, itâs not your father whoâs in trouble. Itâs the Cheng family whoâs here. Come with me and take care of her-â
âAll?â Xiao Baoxinâs beautiful eyes widened. âIâve never killed anyone before.â
Xie Xian was speechless.
âSheâs just a mistress and a little vain. Thereâs no need to kill so ruthlessly, right?âXiao Baoxin couldnât bear to have his heart in a state state of order.
Xie Xian patted her head, feeling helpless and speechless.âEven if I really kill someone, I canât look for you.âDid they think that the Xie family raised those dead warriors to look good?
Even if he had to get his hands stained with blood, it had to be him.
He wanted her to be resolute and courageous, to be able to stand on her own, and not to be so crazy as to train her to become a cold-blooded killer.
His wife looked sharp and intelligent, and sometimes her brain was so strange that it was terrifying. It was only at this moment that he felt that she was indeed Xiao Baoshuâs biological sister. There were still some similarities.
â.. I think itâs better not to kill people.âXiao Baoxin said,âIf you want to kill someone, go to the battlefield and kill the enemy.ââ
Alright, she was certain that he had the determination to kill her if he wanted to. Xie Xian didnât know where she got her confidence from. She seemed to think that his heart was as solid as a rock and that he would turn into ashes with a snap of her fingers.
Xiao Baoxin called for plucking grass and hibiscus to help her dress up. Xie Xian took the opportunity to call Mingyue over.âGo and get the title deed to the manor in Nie Yang of Nanyang County and transfer five thousand taels of silver to the account.â
Ming Yueâs eyes widened. He did not dare to doubt Lord Langâs orders.
However, before he met the Cheng family, he took out these things. It was obvious that he had prepared them for the Cheng family. Wasnât this too generous?
Even if they did, it should be the third branch.
Xie San Ye was pregnant with a beauty for ten years and gave birth to an eight or nine-year-old child. In the end, why should his husband pay for it?
Bah!
After secretly cursing, Ming Yue still went to Granny Zhao, who was in charge of the accounts, to take out the title deed and the silver notes. However, the process was not so smooth.
âMaster Lang has already handed over the management rights to Furen. In the future, no matter what Master Lang withdraws from the account, I will have to report to Furen.â
Master Lang had just found a trap for himself. It was clearly his own thing. In the past, he and Qingfeng were in charge of it, so there was no need for it to be so complicated. He even reported to Madam that Madam was their Masterâs!
âGranny, do as you please.â
Ming Yue replied with a smile. She turned around and went back to tell Xie Xian.
However, Xie Xian was clearly very satisfied with Granny Zhaoâs response. He smiled and said,âThatâs how it should be.â
Ming Yue only realized at this moment that Lord Lang was not asking him to do things, but to test whether the two nannies transferred from Madam Yuan were doing things properly. They always put Madam first, and he was a pathfinder.
Master Lang was not a big person, but now that his wife was stuffed, he was really not afraid of being squeezed.
âWhat should be like this?â Xiao Baoxin changed his clothes and came out of the house.
Because she was going to meet Madam Cheng, she did not wear menâs clothes. Instead, she changed into her clothes for going out. She put on a thin cloak and tied her hair into a bun. She looked elegant and dignified.
Only then did Xie Xian tap the wooden box with his fingers.
âIâve received the title deed and silver notes from my account. In a while, you can tell me the pros and cons and send the Cheng clan to Nie Yang.â
Xiao Baoxin was stunned. She had never done this before. She wanted her to arrest the person, but she had to pinch him with her hands when she escorted him over.
âThis⦠Why do you want me to come forward?â She was not a talent in this area. If it was talking about words, that was clearly Xie Xianâs forte.
â1 want to avoid arousing suspicion..ââ
