Mei Ansheng and Xiao Wenjie stopped crying when Mei Jinnian roared at them.
"Consort Leng, I don't know the specific details. Can I take the children back to my residence to question them thoroughly before punishing them?"
"No!"
Leng Ruoli immediately refused Mei Jinnian's request.
"If Lord Mei wants to understand today's events, you can question them now. The victim is also here today, and the three of them can confront each other on the spot."
As Leng Ruoli spoke, she glanced towards the door and saw Ye Ying leading Liu Nianhua and Meng Fan in.
At this moment, Leng Ruoli pointed at young Meng Fan and said, "This little boy is the victim your sons ganged up to beat."
Mei Jinnian, Madam Qi, and Xiao Yuecheng all looked up at young Meng Fan after hearing Leng Ruoli's words.
As a result, the three of them were shocked by what they saw. Not only was the child's face bruised and swollen, but his entire face was also puffed up. There was a large bloody lump on his forehead, and even his exposed hands bore injuries.
It was just a scuffle between a few children, wasn't it?
How could he be so severely injured?
In fact, they were unaware that when Leng Ruoli was treating young Meng Fan's wounds today, she had deliberately tampered with them. She had applied a special anti-inflammatory solution to the bruises on young Meng Fan's face, deepening the color of the bruises and making them look more frightening.
"Heavens, Mei Ansheng, how could you beat him up like this?"
Seeing his son leading the charge in beating someone else's son to such an extent, Mei Jinnian felt a bloody taste surge into his throat.
If this little boy didn't have Consort Leng as his backer, he could have spent a little money to smooth things over.
But this little boy not only had Consort Leng as his backer, but he was also the child of Leng Jinyu's savior. Mei Jinnian dared not provoke them.
Everyone in the capital knew that Consort Leng and Leng Jinyu were extremely protective of their own. Who would dare to provoke this father and daughter duo?
"Wuwu... Daddy, I, I... I didn't expect him to be injured so severely!" Mei Ansheng stammered.
"You... you..."
"Hmph! This is infuriating!"
Mei Jinnian couldn't find the right words to say after a long pause.
After a moment of contemplation, Mei Jinnian could no longer contain his frustration and asked, "You two quickly tell us what exactly happened today?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Mei Ansheng and Xiao Wenjie both lowered their heads.
At this moment, Leng Ruoli's cold eyes swept over the two boys, threatening them.
"You two quickly tell your parents the truth about beating people on the streets and alleys today, or you will have to spend the night here."
"I'll tell you, I'll tell you, you fierce woman, don't think you can scare me." Mei Ansheng retorted defiantly to Leng Ruoli.
"Mei Ansheng, how dare you! This is Consort Leng. You must be respectful." Mei Jinnian once again roared at his son.
Being yelled at by his father, Mei Ansheng's mouth twisted, and he started crying again.
As for Xiao Wenjie, he kept his head down, not daring to say a word, because his father, Xiao Yuecheng, was staring at him fiercely.
As a result, he didn't dare to say anything.
"No crying!"
"Speak quickly!"
Leng Ruoli was also annoyed by the commotion caused by these two children.
However, Mei Ansheng quieted down after being shouted at by her.
Then, Mei Ansheng sniffled and slowly opened his mouth, saying, "Today, we wanted to play with Li Mengfan, but..."
Mei Ansheng took over half an hour to roughly explain what had happened.
"Young Meng Fan, are they lying or omitting anything?" Leng Ruoli asked him deliberately.
"Yes! They didn't explain in detail about bullying Da Niu and Xiao Niu, and they also held me down and tried to feed me feces, but I broke free." Young Meng Fan truthfully told everyone.
However, when Liu Nianhua, young Meng Fan's mother, heard what her son had said, her eyes widened, and her anger surged directly to the top of her head.
"Meng Fan, are you telling the truth? They not only beat you but also tried to feed you feces!!!"
Liu Nianhua pointed her left finger at Mei Ansheng and Xiao Wenjie and shouted loudly. She seemed to be burning with rage, with sparks flying from every hair on her body, her right hand clenched into a fist, making crackling sounds.
Young Meng Fan looked up at his mother's expression, which seemed as if she could devour someone. Although he knew his mother wasn't angry with him, he was worried that his mother might...
But he couldn't lie to his mother in front of so many people. After a long period of internal struggle, his little head nodded.
When Liu Nianhua realized her son wasn't joking, her anger intensified. She turned and walked in front of Mei Ansheng and Xiao Wenjie, slapping each of them four times.
"Slap, slap, slap, slap!"
"Slap, slap, slap, slap!"
Mei Ansheng and Xiao Wenjie immediately started bleeding from their noses from the blows.
The faces of these two children also quickly became swollen.
The children started crying from being hit.
"Wuwuwu..."
"Wuwuwu..."
The two children cried like ghosts wailing.
Everyone in the medical hall who witnessed this scene was stunned.
Later, Madam Qi, Mei Ansheng's mother, was the first to react. Without waiting for Leng Ruoli to tell her to get up, she quickly stood up, rushed over, grabbed her son Mei Ansheng, and glared at Liu Nianhua with a face full of anger, shouting loudly,
"You lunatic, why did you hit my son? Do you think you can touch my son?"
Unexpectedly, Liu Nianhua was not someone to be trifled with either.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk!"
"You're Mei Ansheng's mother, aren't you? No wonder he's become so arrogant at such a young age. It turns out all his bad habits were learned from you, his mother. Truly, the beam above is not straight, and the beams below are crooked!" Liu Nianhua said acidly to Madam Qi.
This was the first time Leng Ruoli and the staff in the medical hall had seen such a formidable side of Liu Nianhua.
"You, you... what did you say, you lunatic? I'll tear your mouth apart and strangle you to death today."
Madam Mei, Madam Qi, enraged by Liu Nianhua's words, lost her mind and started fighting with Liu Nianhua like a shrew.
Xiao Yuecheng and the onlookers in the medical hall, seeing the two of them with their ravenous expressions, struggled to suppress their laughter. No one even paid attention to the two children bleeding from their noses.
Only Mei Jinnian, seeing Madam Qi's shrewish demeanor, felt his face was completely lost by Madam Qi. Madam Qi now had no semblance of a madam of the Mei family; she was a complete shrew.
However, Leng Ruoli did not stop them because she knew Liu Nianhua would definitely win against Madam Qi.
In fact, the reason was very simple.
Liu Nianhua did manual labor every day, so she would definitely have more strength than a woman who couldn't even move her hands and feet, wore a luxurious long dress, and lived a pampered life all day.
It was estimated that Madam Qi would beg for mercy before long.
As expected, after fighting for less than the time it takes for a cup of tea to brew, Madam Qi's pearl hairpin tassels fell all over the ground, her hair was messy like a bird's nest, and her clothes were also...
In short, Mei Jinnian felt that Madam Qi was beyond being looked at.
