Chapter 197 Rotten from the Root

At that time, Liu Jiqing didn't know that he would soon become the object of everyone's scorn in Xijing City.

Even if there was a glaring red cross on his face, looking miserable...

He still held his head high, hiding his right hand which had just lost a finger, and maintaining the airs of a prince consort, followed closely behind several servants who had also been driven out, struggling to squeeze out.

He is the third son-in-law of the current dynasty and the former top scholar in the imperial examination. He doesn't want to be watched by people like a monkey show. He can't afford to lose face!

Guan was seriously injured. Liu's mother wanted her eldest daughter-in-law Zeng to take care of her, but she saw her standing there in a daze, and she didn't know where her mind was!

“…” Mother Liu pursed her lips, and a hint of ferocity instantly flashed in her slightly narrowed eyes.

Useless slut bitch!!

Not useful at the critical moment...

She needs to be punished again!!!

Mother Liu sighed and glared at Zeng fiercely. However, because there were people around, she withdrew her hand that was about to twist her hard.

Seeing her darling grandson being protected by his grandfather, she threw away her shamelessness to please her son and carefully helped the concubine who was not worthy of being on the stage...

Not long after...

A gap was finally torn in the wall of onlookers.

Liu Jiqing heaved a sigh of relief and hurried back to look for his son, intending to protect him as he walked out—but he was shocked to see his father dragging his son back??!

well……

Since Princess Zhaoning dared to drive them all out, how could she let them return home so easily?

There are people all around, and more and more people are gathering...

What's going on? Does this father think today's excitement isn't big enough, and that Liu Jiqing isn't embarrassed enough?!

"..." Liu Jiqing was so angry that his teeth ached and he held his forehead up to the sky.

He touched his chin which had been repeatedly pulled apart. The word "Dad" was stuck in his throat and before he could shout it out, Liu's father, who had just touched the door knocker, was grabbed by the back of the neck by the vigilant secret guard and thrown to the ground.

Father Liu screamed in pain, but when he fell to the ground, he held on to Liu Sheng tightly as if he was grabbing a life-saving straw, and the huge force pulled Liu Sheng down!

Liu Sheng fell heavily to the ground, not only did he chew a mouthful of snow mixed with mud, but he also broke one of his front teeth!

“Wow—!!”

Liu Sheng cried loudly in pain. He caught a glimpse of the big man spanking his butt and breaking his jaw. He quickly covered his mouth tightly and swallowed the fishy and sweet taste in his mouth, along with a broken tooth.

"Father! Sheng'er!" Liu Jiqing turned and walked forward quickly, squatting down and helping Liu Sheng up. "Sheng'er, be good. Men shed blood, not tears. Be strong. Dad will take you to see a doctor soon..."

Liu Jiqing patted the dirt off Liu Sheng's body with a look of heartache, turned around and wanted to help his father... But Liu Sheng seemed to be extremely frightened. He was afraid and aggrieved, and hugged Liu Jiqing's neck and refused to let go.

“Ouch~”

"Hey~"

Father Liu was in so much pain that he dared not move. He lay on his back on the ground groaning.

He reached out his hand to Liu Jiqing tremblingly, but received no response.

Mother Liu was anxious, but she couldn't just throw Guan away. After all, this bitch was the apple of her son's eye...

She held one of Guan's arms, slowly moved to Zeng's side, and secretly twisted her waist hard.

"What are you standing there for? Go and help your father up?" Mother Liu scolded, almost gritting her teeth, but her voice was very soft.

Zeng's eyebrows twitched in pain, but she endured it as usual, not even making a sound to breathe.

Over the years, the flesh under her thin shirt had been almost twisted to pieces by Liu's mother, and it hurt even the slightest touch.

Zeng frowned as she looked at her mother-in-law, who was a head shorter than her but extremely strong. Her mind was filled with the vicious look of her mother-in-law who rushed in, beat and insulted her, and threatened her not to report to the police, let alone commit suicide, after she was bullied by her father-in-law for the first time.

At that time, she watched her closely for seven days and seven nights.

She wanted to commit suicide. She tortured her daughter right in front of her, beating her until she cried, and even wanted to shave her daughter's hair...

The old woman threatened her that if she died, she would sell her daughter to a widower to save food...

That's her granddaughter! ?

How could this vicious old woman have the heart to do that?!

Her parents had passed away long ago, and she had no one left behind... For the sake of her daughter, she didn't dare to die. She endured the nausea in her throat when swallowing, and vomited after eating.

She even forced herself to believe that her father-in-law might have just been drunk that time...

She was thinking about her poor daughter...who had finally gotten through that difficult time.

But since then, the child's grandfather has become more and more unscrupulous...

Every time he bullied and forced her, he not only nailed her to the pillar of shame, but also made her life worse than death.

＿|￣|○

She is incompetent! She is filthy!! Why doesn’t she die??!!

But for the sake of her daughter, she had to endure all the nausea and swallow all the pain and blood for so many years!

I thought my brother-in-law had not only passed the imperial examination but also married the princess, and that life would get better day by day...

Yet there was no end to those horrible things!

Her mother-in-law personally brought her daughter a calming soup and helped her father-in-law into her bedroom. She said... The old woman said, what's the difference between once and a hundred times?

Since she has the guts to seduce her man, she should stop being a whore and pretending to be a saint!

???

She thought that the child's grandfather would be cautious if she lived in the princess's mansion... She struggled desperately... and resisted constantly... but the old beast was fearless at all... It was all in vain.

`(;′Д`)`

She didn't do it voluntarily. She really wanted to listen to the princess and report it to the police...

But Liu Jiqing promised her that he would find a good marriage for her daughter and prepare a generous dowry for her daughter...as long as she would shut up.

She hesitated... She wanted to seek the princess's protection... She wanted to beg the princess to help her take care of her daughter...

But the Third Princess is a coward! She can’t rule the Liu family! She can’t even save herself!

"Why are you crying?!" Mother Liu looked at her eldest daughter-in-law, who was crying like a tearful mess, puzzled. Disgust and hatred were almost overflowing in her eyes. "Your father-in-law is still lying on the ground. Why don't you go there quickly!"

Zeng sniffed and wiped her face with her hands, but the tears could not be wiped away.

Now that the Liu family has offended that capable young princess, who is also favored by the Queen Mother, Prince Qing, and others, it's likely they'll never be able to turn things around...

The Liu family has fallen, and her daughter is now married. There is nothing she can do for her anymore.

In that case, she will live for herself!

For the first time in his life, Zeng glared at Liu's mother fiercely.

She narrowed her eyes and looked at Father Liu fiercely, her gaze finally stopping at his crotch...
