Chapter 138: Catching Madam Qiao
Although Lian Fang Zhou had bought a large cabinet a few days again to store clothes and had added large locks to the drawers, Third Aunt was still in a cold sweat!
What if Madam Qiao picked the lock? What if Lian Fang Qing and Lian Che got hurt from the pushing? How would she explain to Lian Fang Zhou!
Third Aunt started from her anger and yelled, “You are an old bitch, you are really not human! You are the same as a thief robbing the house!” She rushed to fight with Madam Qiao.
Lian Fang Qing and Lian Che felt refreshed. Lian Fang Qing, who had been pushed to the floor, had been crying but now they both stopped. The two of them grabbed Madam Qiao’s legs tightly and pulled hard.
Between them and Third Aunt’s pounce, the situation was reversed immediately!
Madam Qiao hadn’t expected Third Aunt to come back so quickly and was shocked. In her surprise, her grip loosened, and she completely lost the opportunity to resist.
By the time she reacted, she had fallen into Third Aunt’s hands.
Madam Qiao was shocked and angry, struggling and shouting desperately, but where would Third Aunt, Lian Fang Qing, and Lian Che let her go? The three of them pulled her tightly.
Who knew who tripped first but they fell to the ground together and Madam Qiao, on the bottom, screamed out in pain.

Third Aunt said: “Qing’er, I’m holding on with your third brother, go get the rope!”
“Good!” Lian Fang Qing got up and ran to find the rope without hesitation.
Madam Qiao was frightened and angry, yelling “Let go of me” and twisting and struggling desperately, Third Aunt was furious. She placed her legs on either side of Madam Qiao’s waist and pressed down firmly on her arms.
Lian Che saw that Third Aunt had Madam Qiao and quickly pressed down on her legs and feet.
Madam Qiao’s eyes went dark and she almost fainted from anger! What is this called!
She suddenly yelled.
Annoyed, Third Aunt raised her hand and slapped her from both sides with two loud slaps, cursing: “Try scolding again and wait for this old lady to shove a sock in your mouth!”
Lian Che said something very reasonable at this time: “Third Aunt, the smelly socks are not as smelly as her mouth!”
Third Aunt laughed loudly: “Che’er, you are so right! Your eldest aunt can’t blame you for being smart!”
Madam Qiao was so frightened and angry, her lungs nearly exploded, but she did not dare to scold any more, biting her lip fiercely.
“Third Aunt, the rope is here!” Lian Fang Qing rushed in from the outside, holding a brown rope with thick thumbs in her hand.
“Okay, Qing’er, you tie her feet!” Third Aunt said.
Madam Qiao’s was furious and frustrated, where would she submit? She kicked again and again.
Third Aunt cursed: “You be honest with me! Do you not want to be tied? If you don’t want it, then Qing’er will find stinky socks!”
Madam Qiao’s whole body trembled, and she dared not struggle anymore.
Third Aunt snorted in satisfaction and said: “Just be honest! Honestly, I promise not to stuff your mouth with stinky socks!”
Madam Qiao’s heart was slightly relieved, but even more resentful. She scolded Third Aunt and brother Lian Fang Qing until she was spitting blood. Of course, Lian Fang Zhou, Lian Ze and even Ah Jian were not let off.
With Madam Qiao’s cooperation, the three of them quickly tied her up into zongzi* from top to bottom.
Third Aunt stood up from the ground clapped her hands and sneered: “Sister-in-law, I didn’t expect you to be so shameless! Just wait here for Fang Zhou to come back and deal with you, you’ve lost!”
Lost? Hearing these two words, Madam Qiao became angry again. She raised his head with difficulty and stared at Third Aunt and said: “I’m your sister-in-law! You, you quickly let me go, otherwise, when your elder brother comes back, I’ll see who is shameless!”
Third Aunt went ‘pooh’ and said: “If you weren’t my sister-in-law, do you think I’d be so cheap as to let you go? Bullying a junior, checking the junior’s room to steal something, who does this? But you did it! I am so embarrassed to say you are my sister-in-law!”
“That… I…” Madam Qiao couldn’t find any excuses, so she snorted: “I was just looking around, I didn’t take anything! What, just because you say so, it must be true?”
“You are really trying to lie? This old lady is so embarrassed to hear it!” Third Aunt sneered. Calling to Lian Fang Qing and Lian Che, she said: “Let’s go! She can’t get out anyway!”
Lian Fang Qing and Lian Che agreed and left with Third Aunt.
Madam Qiao suddenly became anxious, and hurriedly shouted, “Wait, wait! Okay, let’s wait for Fang Zhou to come back! It’s cold on the ground, what will I do if I catch a cold? You guys get me a blanket, a coat, or something. A pad is fine, right?”
“No!” Lian Fang exclaimed with a breath full of anger, “It’s already good if we don’t splash water on you!”
Third Aunt clapped her hands and smiled: “Qing’er makes a lot of sense! Do you have any more requests?”
The latter sentence was naturally addressed to Madam Qiao.
“They are all wolf cubs!” Madam Qiao moved her lips and cursed quietly, turning her head away from Third Aunt.
Third Aunt snorted, then took Lian Fang Qing and Lian Che out, leaving Madam Qiao in the room like this.
“Later, your uncle came to knock on the door, maybe he was here to look for her. I didn’t know what to do, so I didn’t open the yard door to him! Fortunately, he only called a few times and left when no one answered. Otherwise…” Third Aunt finished.
Lian Fang Zhou snorted: “He is such a face-saving person, of course he would leave. Did you think he would dare to break through?”
Pushing open the door of the room, even though she was already mentally prepared, Lian Fang Zhou was still taken aback. Lian Ze couldn’t help but laugh.
This was just a big dumpling!
Ah Jian couldn’t help but smile. He shook his head slightly, turned, and left.
He didn’t need to participate in the family matters of the Lian family and Lian Fang Zhou could handle it anyway.
“Fang Zhou! You, you—you are back!” Madam Qiao couldn’t help but raise her head when she heard movement. When she saw Lian Fang Zhou, her eyes lit up, but then her face sank. She had been about to scold a few words but thinking of her current situation, she turned his head abruptly.
“Why has eldest aunt come to my room! I thought it was a thief!” Lian Fang Zhou sneered slightly.
Madam Qiao had been tied up and left lying on the icy ground for a long time. Her body was numb and aching from the cold. She was already in pain. Hearing Lian Fang Zhou saying this, she was about to speak, but Lian Fang Zhou continued coldly. “It’s still early. Auntie can keep resting. Let me wash my face and drink some hot tea. Then we can talk slowly!” After that, she took Third Aunt and shut the door again.
After finally seeing the hope of liberation only to have the bubble burst in her face, Madam Qiao was extremely angry, but she did not dare to curse loudly. She only dared to curse in a low voice with a fierce look.
After a while, Lian Fang Zhou came in. This time she was the only one who came in and she closed the door behind her.
When Madam Qiao saw her, her energy lifted and there was a little pleading in her eyes.
