Kapitel 40: Long Mansion Part 6
The four women froze.
They hadn't expected the cripple to fight back, hence the reason for their surprise.
Heh...planning on stomping me down before I even entered the door?
Why? So that you can stomp on me for the rest of my life?
Not happening!
Qing Yue had seen girls like the ones standing before her in her previous life. The more you back down, the fiercer they would come at you.
Since she wouldn't be getting off the hook by being tolerant and docile, then why should she keep her silence? Why should she allow them to see her as easy prey?
She was Young Madam Long, the legal wife of Long Tian.
If anything, they should be the ones being docile and tolerant.
"Husband, Yue'er is tired of sitting on this chair. Hug!" She looked up and cutely raised her arms towards her husband.
The scornful expressions on their faces vanished, replaced with shock and disbelief.
They were shocked that with her hideous appearance, she'd even dare to make such a request out of Long Tian. And they couldn't believe an ugly cripple like her actually had the guts to act cute before Long Tian!
Didn't she see her face in the mirror, or was she blind as well?
At this thought, their sight shifted to her bright violet eyes and they immediately discarded the idea. If she was blind, her eyes wouldn't shine so bright.
The four women's nostrils flared.
Shameless! Absolutely shameless!
With clenched fists, they hatefully glared at Qing Yue as she blinked and innocently looked up at Long Tian.
Qing Yue felt the burning glares on her body and secretly sneered.
Didn't they say she had a thick face? Then she'd show them just how thick her face was!
If she didn't make them explode from extreme envy and jealousy, then she would've gained such an outstanding husband for nothing.
"Husband, hug!" Qing Yue stretched out her arms again. This time she tearfully blinked at the man and put on an aggrieved expression.
At first, Long Tian was taken aback by his wife's address. Ever since they'd signed the marriage certificate, she'd only ever addressed him as Brother Tian.
But when he saw her tearful eyes, he quickly returned to his senses and moved around his mother.
"Yue'er, come. I'll carry you inside." Coming to her side, he obediently bent down and lifted his wife in his arms.
Yi Qin looked at her empty arm in shock.
Did her son just shake her away?
For an ugly cripple, he actually shook her away!?
She couldn't believe it!
"Tian Tian, wait..."
But Long Tian was too occupied with his tearful wife to pay any attention to anyone else. He shifted her in his arms to a more comfortable position while taking care not to touch her wounds.
"Yue'er, are you comfortable? Do you feel any pain?" He worriedly asked.
Qing Yue blinked.
This...didn't she only ask him to hug her? Why did he pick her up?
She felt embarrassed. This was the first time she'd been held so closely by a man...while conscious.
"Um! I'm not in pain, husband. Thank you..." Since she still had to put on a good performance, she lowered her voice and laid her head on his chest.
"Da**! This ugly cripple is all over Brother Tian!"
"How dare she!? How dare she touch Brother Tian's body!?"
"I can't believe Brother is actually carrying her? Isn't he disgusted by her hideous appearance?"
"Yuwen, this can't go on. Did you see how Brother Tian shook off Aunt Qin for this ugly cripple? If we don't do something about her soon, then Brother Tian will not recognize anyone except for her!"
"I understand what you're saying Sister Man, but you can see for yourself. Brother is carrying that cripple in his arms. Aside from waiting patiently for a chance, there's nothing we can do right now."
"Sister Yuwen is right. Right now, we can only wait."
Under the jealous glares of the four women and the Long Madam and Young Mistress, Qing Yue passed the threshold of the Long Mansion in her husband's arms.
"Yue'er this is Main Hall." Qing Yue peered inside the huge hall. Not much different from the Main Hall of the Li Mansion, the Longs' hall had two security guards stationed at the door.
"You keep guards even inside the house? Isn't that too stifling?"
She couldn't imagine how one could focus with people standing over their shoulders.
"It's not when you get used to it. Besides, I'm either in my room or out for some work. The chance to feel stifled never arrived."
Long Tian passed the guards, who immediately bowed without a change in expression, and entered the hall. He sat his wife on the couch and sat beside her.
At this moment, the four women with the Long Madam and Young Mistress streamed into the hall.
"It's good to see you so dedicated to your wife, son." Yi Qin scornfully glanced at Qing Yue before proceeding to the opposite couch.
The rest of the women filled the other seats, their eyes carrying similar mockery when they looked at Qing Yue.
"But you're not planning to carry her around for the rest of your life, are you? Because if so, you might as well divorce. What's the use of keeping a woman that can't even walk on her own?"
"That's right, Older Brother. As the Young Madam of the Long Family, how can she not even walk? Even after being married, are you planning on attending every high-class party by yourself?"
Long Tian glared at his sister. Though they were related by blood, he felt no brotherly affection for her. The girl knew nothing but how to cause trouble.
Long Yuwen immediately shrunk back into her seat and lowered her head. Her brother's glare was too fierce!
"Mother, Yue'er is my wife. I'd appreciate it if you'd refrain from embarrassing her."
"Oh? Haha...what an eye-opener this is. It hasn't even been two months since you signed the marriage certificate and you're already taking your crippled wife's side over your mother? I've really raised you for nothing!" Yi Qin picked up a cup of tea and slammed it back down with force.
Long Tian frowned.
He didn't want to argue with his Mother. After all, she'd given birth to him and raised him to this age. But she was insulting his wife in front of his eyes.
As a husband, how could he remain quiet and tolerate his wife's insult?
"Mother, you know your status in my heart more clearly than anyone else. No one can replace that. But you must also know that I'm married now. As a husband, it is my responsibility to protect my wife from any harm, whether it's physical or mental. What you just did, insulting and degrading her by calling her names? That can be considered as mental harm."
"You! Good. Good. You said so many good words just to accuse me of mentally harming your cripple wife..."
"Mother."
Cold and barely above a whisper, Long Tian's low voice held a dangerous edge that instantly silenced the other woman.
"Mother, I'll say this again. Don't make me say it another time. Li Qing Yue is my wife. She is the Young Madam of the Long Family. As Madam Long, I won't expect you to love and pamper her. But as my mother, I hope you won't insult my wife. After all, she's my wife and as your son, I can at least expect this much from you, can't I?"
