Chapter 12 Persuading Her to Divorce

Although Zhou Nuan had only been living here for a few days, she had always had strong social skills. Within two days, she had become familiar with all the patients on this floor, especially the woman who was speaking in front of her, Mrs. Chen.

No one knew Mrs. Chen's identity, but she was definitely not an ordinary person. Even wearing a hospital gown, it couldn't conceal the elegant temperament she exuded.

She was the one who asked the question just now.

Even if He Rongsheng didn't have good eyesight, he could tell that the people who could live on this floor were of noble status, and their conversation and temperament were beyond the reach of ordinary people, so he couldn't utter any abusive words.

Zhou Nuan glanced at He Rongsheng, whose face was frozen, and suddenly smiled, "Yes, Sister Chen, this is my mother and sister from my mother's family. They came to see me... empty-handed."

He Rongsheng smiled very reluctantly, "Child, can you miss the gift from my grandson?"

"I'll make it up next time if I'm in a hurry."

Zhou Nuan looked at Zhou Bing again.

Zhou Bing's eyebrows jumped. "As an aunt, I definitely need to give my nephews gifts. I will definitely make it up to them next time."

Next time? There won’t be a next time.

Zhou Nuan snorted coldly, quickly took out a piece of paper from the drawer next to her and handed it to He Rongsheng.

"If I had known it would be like this, I'm glad I was prepared."

He Rongsheng was stunned and took a look at the paper.

The paper was not big, and it was written in black characters that she could not understand. She had not received much education and could not recognize many words. She could only understand the three words "He Rongsheng" on it. She could not help but look at her little daughter in confusion.

Zhou Bing took it and read, "Today, He Rongsheng owes Zhou Nuan's children Xiaodong and Xiaoxi a longevity lock each, and a big red envelope for each of them to make up before the hundred-day banquet."

The more she read, the more strange her eyes looked, and He Rongsheng almost couldn't keep the smile on his face.

This damn girl was actually waiting for her here! What longevity lock! What big red envelope! ! The longevity lock must be made of silver at least, and there are two of them! How much would that cost!

In front of so many people, she couldn't say no, so she just kept a stiff face and said, "Girl, would your mother lie to you?"

Zhou Nuan also laughed, "That's hard to say. When I got married, you said that our family was not selling our daughter, and that you wanted such a high betrothal gift so that I wouldn't be looked down upon by the Gu family. You also said that you would return the betrothal gift money to me after I got married. I've been married for five years, but I haven't seen a cent."

She glanced at the people around him who were looking at He Rongsheng and his daughter with disapproval on their faces, and felt relieved.

Fortunately, she had spared no effort in the past two days to publicize what He Rongsheng had done, and now she was able to occupy the highest peak of public opinion. She knew that He Rongsheng would not let her go so easily and would definitely come looking for her.

There is also the betrothal money and the money sent back by Gu Xiyue. She will take back every penny of the money that the Zhou family has taken away under various names over the years. Now let He Rongsheng bleed a little.

He Rongsheng's face was very stiff. He wanted to get angry but was concerned about the people around him, so he quickly changed the subject, "Look at what you said. How could mom lie to you? Okay, okay, okay, isn't it just a longevity lock? I will definitely buy it for my eldest grandson."

She was thinking about agreeing to it first, so that even if she didn't recognize Zhou Nuan, she wouldn't be able to do anything to her.

Zhou Nuan smiled again, her round eyes narrowed into a line, as cunning as a little fox, and took out a piece of ink from somewhere, "Words are not enough, if you don't admit it, I can't do anything to you. If you put your handprint, I will believe what you say."

Her words were half true and half false, with a hint of joking and coquettishness. She didn't sound annoying, but instead gave people a feeling that she was cute and there was nothing you could do about her.

Mrs. Chen and others did not think there was anything wrong with this. When their daughter gave birth to a child, of course the grandmother had to express her gratitude. Even the poorest family would have to catch a chicken and lay eggs. No one would just come here empty-handed.

Besides, Zhou Nuan was just joking, and they didn't think she would really use this note to force her mother.

Only He Rongsheng saw the extremely cold expression in Zhou Nuan's eyes. Zhou Nuan was serious!

If he didn't agree, he would be embarrassed. He Rongsheng gritted his teeth, dipped some red mud and pressed it on the IOU.

Seeing He Rongsheng put his handprint, Zhou Nuan twitched her lips, took out a pen and added with a smile, "Aunt Zhou Bing owes the twins ten yuan each as a gift."

After she finished writing, she glanced at Zhou Bing again and said with a smile, "Third sister is so generous. I would like to thank Auntie on behalf of the children."

Zhou Bing was inconsolable: When did she promise to give those two little bastards ten yuan? She was just a student, and she had to work hard to get some money from her mother, which was less than thirty yuan in total. Now Zhou Nuan wanted to take most of it. Wasn't this asking for her life?

But He Rongsheng had already put his fingerprints on it, so it seemed she had no choice but to do the same.

There was no other choice, Zhou Bing could only bite the bullet and press the handprint. Looking at the bright red handprint, she felt her heart was bleeding.

Zhou Nuan was very satisfied. She picked it up and looked at it again and again, smiling from ear to ear. "Then I would like to thank grandma and aunt on behalf of the children."

He Rongsheng and Zhou Bing: Who wants you to thank me?

Seeing this, Chen's wife smiled and said, "Xiao Nuan said earlier that her family members were not kind to her. Now it seems that they were exaggerated. Xiao Nuan, they are your family members after all, so you have to get along well with them."

He Rongsheng is a good person.

Mrs. Chen sat for a while and then left with those nosy people. As soon as they left, Qin Yuezhi also left with the excuse of getting some hot water.

Only Zhou's mother and daughter were left in the ward, and the atmosphere suddenly became cold.

He Rongsheng took off his fake smile and stared at his second daughter coldly, "Well, you've grown wings now, right? You dare to embarrass me in front of outsiders?"

Zhou Nuan played with her fingers without even raising her eyelids, and did not respond to her words, "Are you here to see the children or to see me? If you are here to see the children, they are not here now. If you are here to see me, you have seen that I am fine, you can leave now."

He Rongsheng became furious again: she had only been here for more than ten minutes, and she hadn't even had time to spit out a single drop of salt, and her two longevity locks and a big red envelope had been taken away. Now, her second daughter, whom she had never taken seriously, was trying to drive her away. How could she bear this?

He looked around and saw that there was no one around. Just as he was about to get angry, Zhou Bing pulled him back.

She turned around and glared at Zhou Bing in dissatisfaction, and the latter leaned close to her ear and whispered in a low voice, "Mom, now is not the time to get angry with Zhou Nuan."

Zhou Bing's voice was also poisoned, with an air of unhappiness about having lost twenty dollars for no reason.

"The purpose of our coming here is to persuade Zhou Nuan to abandon those two little bastards, divorce Gu Xiyue and go back to the Zhou family. Have you forgotten? If you turn against her now and she doesn't listen to you, then you will really have nothing."
