Chapter 515 Getting Angry

Seeing Zhang Juexia's nonchalant look, Zhang Erzhuang became anxious. "Sister, Uncle Defu is having a hard time these days. You have to be careful and don't let him get too lazy with you."

Zhang Juexia asked doubtfully, "Isn't he living a good life? Didn't Zhang Qiuye give them 20 mu of land out of filial piety? Add to that the land my mother left them, and they're not living well?"

After hearing what Zhang Juexia said, Zhang Erzhuang knew about Zhang Defu's affairs. Zhang Juexia must still be in the dark.

“Sister, Uncle Defu’s life is not what you said, he now has a total of eight acres of land.

When Zhang Qiuye got married, her aunt gave her two acres of land as a dowry.

I heard that the land that Zhang Qiuye gave to the two elders was later taken back by Zhang Qiuye's master.

Sister, why would Sister Qiuye become someone's concubine? She should marry into an ordinary family and at least have the final say."

Zhang Juexia and Ye Beixiu were both shocked by Zhang Erzhuang's words, "Erzhuang, did you hear this from others, or did it really happen?"

Zhang Erzhuang was so anxious that he wanted to swear to the heavens, "Sister, brother-in-law, I didn't lie. That day, the Li family sent officials from the county government to the village to ask for the land deed. My father is the head of the village. They went to my house first, and then went to Uncle Defu's house."

Seeing that Zhang Juexia and Ye Beixiu still seemed a little skeptical, Zhang Erzhuang added, "Sister, brother-in-law, I couldn't possibly have made up this story just to please you.

My father will come to visit your house tomorrow. If you don’t believe me, you can ask them.”

Zhang Juexia comforted Zhang Erzhuang, "Sister doesn't blame you, I just feel that I didn't know about such an important thing."

"Hey, I know my dad's temper. Whenever something happens in the village, he usually issues strict orders not to let anyone tell anyone."

"Uncle, this is all for the sake of the villagers. Erzhuang, there's really nothing for you to do this time, go and get busy!

When you get to the front, tell Li Le that I was delayed for a while because I asked you about some family matters."

"I know, sister, please take care of yourself!

I want to earn a lot of money, and when you give birth to your nephew, I will give him a big gift."

Before Zhang Juexia could say thank you, Zhang Erzhuang had already run away.

Ye Beixiu stood up nervously, "My wife, if my father-in-law comes, don't go forward. I will talk to him if there is anything.

Our lives are good, and if things really don’t work out, we can help him.”

It would have been fine if he hadn't said that. But when he said that, the pent-up anger in Zhang Juexia flared up. She rolled her eyes and said, "How can he be your father-in-law? You call him that so easily.

I tell you, Ye Beixiu, don’t pretend to be a good person in front of me.

If Zhang Defu dares to come to my house and cause trouble, I won't be afraid of him. We've already broken up and severed our relationship."

Seeing Zhang Juexia angry, Ye Beixiu became more nervous, "My wife, you misunderstood me.

After all, he is your father, and all our family money is earned by you. I have no objection if you give him some money."

"I told you not to play nice, but you're still addicted.

It is true that the money in our family is earned by me, but even if I give it to those who have no food to eat, I will not give them a penny.

Didn’t you hear just now? When Zhang Qiuye got married, he gave her two acres of the land left by my mother.

I am my mother's biological daughter, not even as good as a stepdaughter who has no blood relationship with him.

Besides, before I married you, he broke off relations with me without hesitation just to get a little dowry. If I had a father like that, would you want him?"

Zhang Juexia didn't know if it was because of her pregnancy, but she was particularly emotional. As she spoke, she began to shed sad tears.

In the past, she would just get angry for a while.

Seeing Zhang Juexia crying, Ye Beixiu felt extremely distressed. He held her in his arms and said, "Don't cry, my lady. It's all my fault."

I was wrong, okay?

Regarding this matter, we'll do what you say. I won't express any opinions, okay?"

"Seriously? If Zhang Defu is arrested and someone instigates him to go to the county government and sue me for being unfilial, will you support me?"

"I support it. My wife is right. At worst, we can just take out the letter of severance and show it to the county magistrate."

"You are a scholar now, after all. Aren't you afraid of affecting your reputation?"

"Reputation is not as important as my wife's happiness.

Okay, let’s not get angry anymore. If we get angry, we’ll ruin our health and end up being the ones who suffer.”

Ye Beixiu helped Zhang Juexia wipe the tears from her eyes distressedly, "Alas, it's all my fault. I finally had a chance to be at home with you, but ended up making my wife sad."

Ye Beixiu placed Zhang Juexia on a chair and said, "My dear, please sit down and let me pour you some water."

Zhang Juexia sat obediently on the chair, but he was thinking about Zhang Defu. Zhang Qiuye was a really interesting person. He could take back what he gave away.

The more she thought about it, the more confused she became, and her heart beat much faster than before.

The strands of hair on her forehead were also soaked with sweat.

Zhang Juexia felt unwell and started to panic. Ye Beixiu brought some water and also noticed something was wrong with Zhang Juexia.

He thought that Zhang Juexia was angry, so he quickly said a few kind words to persuade her.

Zhang Juexia just shook her head, indicating to Ye Beixiu that she was fine.

Ye Beixiu asked her to drink a few sips of water first, and Zhang Juexia told him, "I'm tired and want to go to sleep for a while."

Ye Beixiu helped her onto the bed. After she lay down, he asked with concern, "How do you feel? Do you need me to call Uncle Liu over and have him take a look at you?"

"Nothing, I'll just get some sleep."

Zhang Juexia sent Ye Beixiu away, thinking in her heart that when she had the chance, she would definitely take back the ten acres of land that Li Li'niang had bought.

And the house she built also needs to be taken back.

Thinking of this, her heartbeat slowed down.

Soon, the person fell asleep.

When she woke up again, Ye Beixiu had already called her to get up for lunch.

He first asked her with concern, "My lady, how do you feel?"

After Zhang Juexia got up and washed her face, she felt much more energetic. She was afraid that Ye Beixiu would worry about her, so she told him, "I'm much better."

"Then let's eat."

After dinner, Ye Beixiu told Zhang Juexia, "Eryong is here. You were sleeping just now, so I sent him away to take care of other things."

Zhang Juexia asked nervously, "What did Eryong say?"

“I asked, but he didn’t tell me, he just said there are some things he needs to tell you.

My dear, there is nothing between you two that you are hiding from me, right? "

"How could that be? He must have felt that you hadn't been in charge of things for a long time, and that even if he told you something, you might not understand it."
