CHAPTER 391: CHAPTER 391 TROUBLE

Tang Chuxia naturally wasn’t afraid of this matter. Not only did she have an identity that could protect herself, but Madam Tang also wouldn’t watch her daughter be taken away in front of her own eyes.

What the Tang family’s situation was like was easy to investigate. Mrs. Hu wanting to frame Tang Chuxia was simply unrealistic.

"Why don’t we do this, I’ll contact Yang Chao for you, okay? As Tang Wanqiu’s biological father, I think Yang Chao’s ability should be enough to help you find an answer!"

Madam Tang immediately went to the study to make a call. Since the Hu family was being unreasonable, she would help them.

Mrs. Hu’s complexion changed. She had not expected Madam Tang to act so decisively and could only look to Tang Chuxia for help.

Tang Chuxia was curious as to why Mrs. Hu was afraid of Yang Chao.

"Aunty, don’t look at me. The things you did today, really, I’m impressed. Normal people couldn’t do such things.

Mrs. Hu: ...

She felt like Tang Chuxia was scolding her.

And it was the kind without any swear words.

Madam Tang made her call quickly and soon came back, standing once again in front of Mrs. Hu: "If you’re not here to help out, then get lost!"

Mrs. Hu glanced at the courtyard with a look of disdain and left.

Even now, she still believed that Tang Chuxia not marrying her son was Tang Chuxia’s loss; her son was the best.

Tang Chuxia thought of when she had previously discovered that Hu Mingcheng had taken someone else’s university place. Unfortunately, it had been over a year, and even if she found the victim, it was likely too late for them to go to school.

Of course, things weren’t so absolute. Tang Chuxia hadn’t had the time to bother with Hu Mingcheng before the new year as she was always busy, and now the Hu family had come to annoy her.

She believed it was time to give the Hu family a reminder.

Watching Mrs. Hu’s retreating figure, Tang Chuxia said to Madam Tang, "Mom, if I were to report that Hu Mingcheng’s university identity is fake, would you support me?"

Madam Tang directly said, "I don’t agree!"

Tang Chuxia hadn’t expected such an answer from Madam Tang.

"If you ruin his future, considering the Hu family’s nature, do you think they will let you off?" Madam Tang reminded Tang Chuxia and she nodded in agreement.

That bastard Hu Mingcheng would definitely seek revenge.

After all, Hu Mingcheng despised Tang Chuxia.

Madam Tang continued Tang Chuxia’s line of thought: "But you shouldn’t be the one to report it, I can!"

She was an elder and wasn’t afraid of Hu Mingcheng’s retaliation.

Tang Chuxia reluctantly shook her head.

Madam Tang wasn’t young anymore. If she really became a target for Hu Mingcheng, it would definitely be troublesome.

"Why make it so complicated? I’ll handle this matter and make sure Hu Mingcheng won’t find out who reported him!"

Tang Jianbing interrupted the back-and-forth between Madam Tang and Tang Chuxia.

That very night, Tang Jianbing went out and it was unknown where he had gone. The next day, he told Tang Chuxia, "It’s taken care of, just wait for the good news!"

Tang Chuxia didn’t take it seriously, as she was busy sorting out the Tang family’s affairs and her own house. Gu Beihuai hadn’t returned yet, so she couldn’t just let the house remain a mess.

Since it was a family courtyard, everyone was generally united. Moreover, since the Tang family and the Gu family were related, they did everything together.

Gu Nanzhi complained to Tang Chuxia: "Xiaxia, you don’t know, I feel really pitiful. My brother, the one who shirks his duties, is never home when it’s time to do chores. Who knows where he’s gone off to enjoy himself!"

Tang Chuxia laughed: "What’s up? You can go out and have fun too!"

Gu Nanzhi shook her head, "That’s not happening, we’ve started school too, you have no idea how terrifying our school is!"

Gu Nanzhi was a college student and had various matters to attend to at school. After listening for a while, Tang Chuxia felt like yawning.

She really didn’t expect that this era’s college students actually studied. Of course, there were those who got into relationships too, just not as blatantly as people from another timeline.

Sneaking around, passing love letters—this was the unique romantic gesture of this era.

Tang Chuxia also wanted to go to college. She thought about taking the college entrance exam but then realized, even though she was well-prepared with knowledge, she was unfamiliar with the examination methods of this era. It was very likely that she would fail the national entrance exam.

This was a serious matter.

As Tang Chuxia was brooding over how to get into college, Lin Qingchen also returned with medicinal herbs. At almost the same time, an epidemic broke out in the city.

It was truly severe, with vomiting, diarrhea, and malaria prevalent.

This was also in the preparation phase after flood prevention. Western medicine’s response to malaria involved injections and infusions which turned out to be hardly effective.

But among the ancient prescriptions Lin Qingchen brought back was a herb that addressed this super contagious disease.

Upon seeing that prescription, Tang Chuxia couldn’t help feeling joyful, because she knew about it from her past life and malaria had been completely eradicated in her timeline, thanks largely to this formula.

Lin Qingchen arrived in haste and left just as quickly, with no time to say much.

However, the old monk and Third Grandpa came over, saw the situation in the yard, and directly stated they would handle it.

A house soaked by floodwater was bound to have some issues, but with Third Grandpa and the old monk around, they always had their own miraculous ways to fix such situations.

At last, Tang Chuxia remembered she hadn’t seen Gu Beihuai for several days.

"Do you have any news of your brother?"

Tang Chuxia asked Gu Nanzhi, who simply shook her head, "You don’t know, and even more so I don’t! Are you thinking of dumping him? Need my help?"

Tang Chuxia: ...

Could she and Gu Beihuai even break up?

Tang Chuxia thought it wasn’t necessary yet. Gu Beihuai was out on a rescue mission. If something happened to him, she would feel guilty.

As she kicked a stone blocking her path, Qin Zhan came looking for Tang Chuxia.

"Sister-in-law, come with me quickly!"

Qin Zhan calling Tang Chuxia "sister-in-law" made both Tang Chuxia and Gu Nanzhi shudder.

This was somewhat frightening.

They had always called Tang Chuxia the Female War God; why such a sudden change in address?

"Brother Zhan, are you possessed?" teased Gu Nanzhi, tugging at Qin Zhan’s arm.

Qin Zhan didn’t respond to Gu Nanzhi with a joke as usual, but looked at Tang Chuxia solemnly, "Sister-in-law, you need to come with me now or it will be too late!"

Tang Chuxia was puzzled. Whatever could make Qin Zhan so anxious must be related to Gu Beihuai.

Where was Gu Beihuai?

Currently, he was out helping with disaster relief.

Tang Chuxia stroked her chin, not in a hurry to leave with Qin Zhan, and asked doubtfully, "Did something happen to Gu Beihuai?"

Qin Zhan didn’t answer her question, but instead said, "Sister-in-law, there are disaster victims trapped in a bridge tunnel. Both ends are blocked, and the top is too thick to break open. They need your help!"

Tang Chuxia shouted angrily, "Is the unfortunate one inside Gu Beihuai?"
