Chapter 176: I Must Have Heizhuang

“Pft.” He rolled his eyes at An Heizhuang’s mother and sneered.
“What are you doing? If you want to die, what does that have to do with me?”
He turned around and looked at Heizhuang, who cried as if his parents had died in An Da’s arms. His expression darkened.
Honestly, what can I do with this dark little thing? I’ll sell him to a broker at most. Now that I got myself involved with this pathetic family, it’s a huge loss.
But I have no choice. I cannot afford to offend that man.!!
What should you do when encountering someone you cannot afford to offend? Do what they say, of course!
Therefore, I must have Heizhuang.
“What are you waiting for? Capture that little thing for me,” Ministry Councilor He instructed his servants.
He was eager to settle the matters here quickly and leave this godforsaken place. He would never come to An Clan Village again!
The servants and thugs rushed forward immediately and snatched Heizhuang from An Da’s arms.
An Da refused to let go and was pinned to the ground by two thugs. He watched as his son was taken away by Ministry Councilor He’s servant.
Heizhuang cried even louder as strangers held him and continued struggling when he received a slap on his face.
The servant did not have to be polite to him—he was not his parent. He did not hold back from teaching him a lesson since he was still crying in his arms.
Heizhuang was so stunned he forgot to cry, tears and snot all over his face.
The servant was disgusted. Although he was only a servant, he was still particular about cleanliness.
“Ah!”
Heizhuang’s mother was agitated when she saw her son captured and beaten up.
Since it was useless to point the knife at herself, she began swinging it at the servant carrying her son.
“Return him! Return Heizhuang to me!”
However, she was unsteady on her feet and stumbled. The knife in her hand swayed, and she slashed at her son.
“Huh?!”
Even the servant was shocked by the woman.
He quickly darted aside with Heizhuang. It did not matter to him if she wanted to kill the child in his arms, but he did not want to be implicated. He still wanted to live.
“Ah!”
Despite dodging, he still heard screams.
The servant turned around and saw the woman collapse over An Da, the knife in her hand stabbing An Da’s shoulder.
He gasped and muttered to himself, “Is this karma?”
She had schemed to sell someone else’s child, but her family received retribution. No one was spared.
Old An had been searching the room but could not find the 50 taels of silver. He was about to take a basin of water and splash it on his wife to wake her up and ask about the money’s whereabouts.
However, when he came out, he saw his daughter-in-law stabbing his son with a knife.
“Stop! Stop it!”
Face paled, he rushed over and pushed the woman aside. He heard his son scream again.
His daughter-in-law had been holding the knife tightly, but she pulled the knife out of An Da’s shoulder when Old An yanked her away.
