C24 Break His Legs!

“Heh, heh…” Jiang Xi laughed coldly. He stared at his son for a few breaths, then turned to look at High Duke Jin. “Even if you are jealous, you should have a limit! Now, my son is bedridden and unable to get up. Your two sons are completely unharmed!”

Li Yaoche knew that Jiang Xianguo would definitely return the favor. He bowed his head and said, “Lord Xianguo, what happened yesterday was all Second Lang’s fault. He should bear all the responsibility. He has no complaints.”

Jiang Ru closed her eyes in depression and supported her forehead with her hand. She had calculated everything, but she had missed the fact that her father was too protective of his son. It was impossible to reason with him! In her father’s life’s scripture, ‘If you hurt my people, you must compensate! Don’t even think about getting away!’

“You bear the responsibility? But Fourth Lang said that my son was the one who injured him!” Jiang Xi laughed coldly.

Li Yaoche cupped his hands and said, “Lord Xianguo, my Fourth Brother was born stupid and ignorant. I was unable to stop him from going to the Peaceful Kuan Market, which resulted in a huge mistake. He injured Young Master Jiang severely. This is a mistake.

“Today, Second Lang came to apologize, but he failed to discipline Fourth Brother properly. Fourth Brother offended your residence. This is also a mistake! All the mistakes are on Second Lang’s shoulders. Lord Xianguo, please punish him!”

Jiang Xi squinted his eyes and looked at Li Yaoche. He smiled and said, “High Duke, you really have a good son. He has the demeanor of a general and can support a family.”

The High Duke’s old face turned red and he didn’t say anything.

Anyone with a little brain would know that Jiang Xi was mocking the High Duke. Usually, the eldest son of the noble family would take over the position of the Crown Prince. However, the High Duke gave the position of the Crown Prince to the eldest son of the noble family, Li Yuanqing, while the eldest son, Li Yaoche, was left alone. His life was extremely miserable.

“My eldest son broke two ribs and lost three teeth,” Jiang Xi said with a fake smile. “I, Jiang Xi, only seek justice and fairness. I’ll just break one of your legs. Li Erlang, are you convinced?”

[What the f*ck!]

[Broken the male lead’s legs! How is this possible?] [Will the male lead take revenge on her in the future?] Jiang Ru turned pale with fright and quickly suggested, “Father, I have an idea.”

“Go ahead,” Jiang Xi nodded slightly.

Jiang Ru was sweating and she forced herself to calm down. “This matter is a grudge between us young people. If you interfere and deal with it, people will say that you bully the weak. This will affect your status. In my opinion, I think that I should let you deal with Li Erlang.”

“What do you think you should do?” Jiang Xi smiled mischievously. He knew that his fifth son wanted to protect Li Yaoche, but if he didn’t punish Li Erlang, he wouldn’t be able to swallow this anger.

Jiang Ru was sweating. Of course, she wanted to punish Li Erlang!

However, that was definitely not possible! Jiang Ru thought about it and picked a punishment that sounded scary but didn’t have that kind of effect. She braced herself and said, “My son intends to punish Li Erlang by whipping him a hundred times.”

Jiang Ru said with a faint smile, “But I want to break one of his legs.”

“Father! Don’t go against the male lead like this!”

Jiang Ru broke out in cold sweat and started to talk nonsense. “Father, it’s currently the third month of the year. If he’s whipped a hundred times, it’ll be very difficult to recover from the injury. It might even turn into pus and itch.”

“If that happens, Li Erlang won’t even be able to wear clothes. He won’t even be able to take a bath. His body will be stinky and itchy. He’ll be better off dead! But if I break one of his legs, Li Erlang will be able to lie on the bed for a hundred days. That’s too easy on him!”
