Zhao Qinghe felt her head was huge.
Recognizing people while also recalling the moments you spent with them can be quite mentally taxing.
Fortunately, the sisters lived relatively well after getting married and did not suffer any serious hardship. They could still vaguely recognize their childhood appearances.
Zhao Fangzhi was the only one who was too thin. The first thing Zhao Qinghe did when she saw her was to take her pulse.
"As a woman of the Zhao family, it is truly rare for you to have your body so depleted."
Zhao has the means to divorce her husband and the means to make money, so why do you choose to live such a miserable life?
Does this mean the Zhao clan has all switched to vegetarianism?
Zhao Qinghe's words were undeniably harsh.
They were practically ready to call Zhao Fangzhi stupid.
This made Zhao Fangzhi's face burn red with shame, and she lowered her head, not daring to look Zhao Qinghe in the eye.
Zhao Qinghe shook her head.
"Though the rain from heaven may be abundant, it cannot nourish grass without roots; though the Buddha's teachings may be vast, they cannot save those without affinity."
The Zhao family has given you enough confidence; if you still can't stand up for yourself, then you're truly beyond help.
Zhao Fangzhi felt ashamed when her girlfriends said she was beyond help, and at the same time, she reflected on whether she had been too stupid over the years of marriage.
A moment later, Zhao Fangzhi took Zhao Qinghe's hand and poured out all the differential treatment she had received in her husband's family since getting married.
In summary, Zhao Fangzhi was disliked by her mother-in-law, and her son was also disliked as a result.
Zhao Qinghe frowned.
"Is your husband perhaps adopted by your in-laws? Otherwise, even if they don't like you as their daughter-in-law, they wouldn't mistreat their grandson."
It seems there's no other explanation besides the possibility that he's not her biological child.
But none of that matters. What I really want to know is your plan.
Do you want me, the daughter of the prefect, to stand up for you and suppress your in-laws, or are you planning to separate from them or get a divorce?
In my opinion, separating from the family or getting a divorce are both good options.
If you don't want to stay in Lingnan Prefecture anymore, I can take you with me when I return to the capital.
As for making a living, it's better to just find any job or set up a stall to sell some food than to suffer mistreatment.
"You can still send Xiaobao to school, and he might pass the exams and get some official position in the future, which will give you some security."
Zhao Qinghe spoke casually, but it made all the girls extremely uneasy.
Isn't this a bit shocking? Do daughters of officials all take marriage so lightly?
But thinking about it again, the Zhao family's ancestral precepts don't seem to be wrong at all.
So everyone started complaining about Zhao Fangzhi's incompetence.
Cailian: "I'm not trying to criticize you, but our Zhao family girls are always the ones people want to curry favor with, but your mother-in-law is the one causing trouble."
If you're being mistreated by your mother-in-law, you should first complain to your husband. If he can't resolve the issue, then pretend to be sick and do nothing.
If they dare to lay a hand on you, just run away with your hair disheveled. Any family that cares about their reputation will be afraid of that.
Then you can go back to your parents' home to complain. The men of the Zhao family will definitely stand up for you.
"But you, not only have you become such a pathetic sight, but look at Xiao Bao's little arms and legs, how much suffering he's endured!"
Qionghua: "That's right, that's right. They're all descendants of the Yue family, so why are the other branches so favored while yours gets beaten and suffers?"
Your husband is useless, and your father-in-law is just trying to smooth things over. Doesn't your wife's family have any clan?
Xiao Bao is a boy.
In short, you should have gone back to your parents' home a long time ago.
"Once the banquet is over, we'll gather all the men of the Zhao family and go get justice for you. I refuse to believe we won't beat them to a pulp."
