"Father, I was wrong. I was really anxious. I don't want to divorce my wife!"
"You don't want a divorce, so you do this. Who will forgive you?" Huang Wenbai snorted.
"Madam, I was wrong, I was really wrong, please forgive me?" Huang Haichuan suddenly started crawling on his knees, and Huang Wenbai did not stop him. He crawled all the way to Zheng Pei and Huang Ziyao's side.
Seeing Huang Haichuan covered in blood, looking quite frightening, Huang Ziyao feared he might do something bad to Zheng Pei again, so she quickly stopped him, saying, "Father, don't come any closer!"
"That brat, why does she always cause trouble?" Qian Peilan felt utterly disgusted by Huang Ziyao.
This brat is clearly a member of the Huang family, so why is she siding with Zheng Pei? Doesn't she know how to help her own father at all? Doesn't she know that if Zheng Pei takes this to Zheng Lin, they'll inevitably face retaliation?
Does Huang Ziyao feel happy to see their home destroyed and retaliated against?
You're a traitor!
"Ziyao, how could your father hurt your mother?" Qian Peilan thought to herself, but she didn't show it on her face. "Your father acted impulsively and did something wrong. He wanted your mother to forgive him. Now that we're all here, your father won't be confused. Don't worry!"
Huang Ziyao is easy to fool, but Zheng Pei has been with Huang Haichuan for more than ten years and lived in the Hu family for more than ten years. How could she not know what kind of people Huang Haichuan and his family are?
“Madam, my daughter is easy to talk to and doesn’t understand anything, but I’m different. We know what kind of person your son is, don’t we?”
Qian Peilan was so taken aback by Zheng Pei's words that she almost lost her gentle expression. "Daughter-in-law, what are you saying? I'm not just praising Chuan'er as his mother, he's truly the best. Yes, I admit that Chuan'er has a woman in his harem, but what man doesn't have multiple wives and concubines? You, as his legal wife, should be more magnanimous. In Chuan'er's heart, you are still the one he loves and cherishes the most. All that happened before was just that vixen named Mingyue bewitching Chuan'er."
"Grandmother!" Huang Ziyao felt something was wrong when she heard this. "Father not only hit Mother this time, but Mother was also beaten last time!" That's why they went back to their mother's house. According to Mother, Father even stopped giving his younger brother his medicine. He not only doesn't care about Mother, but he doesn't even care about them anymore.
"So that's what Grandmother said!" Qian Peilan's face was deep. "It was all instigated by that vixen named Mingyue. Your father is easily swayed, and that vixen is born to bewitch men. Your father made such a mistake because he was confused for a moment. Grandmother promises you, I will drive that vixen away right now!"
"Madam, you don't need to say anymore!" Zheng Pei was not fooled by Qian Peilan. "I am determined to get a divorce!" Qian Peilan's words sounded nice, saying that Huang Haichuan was bewitched. Huang Haichuan has been like this for more than ten years. Is it all because he was bewitched by women?
"Madam, I truly know I was wrong!" Huang Haichuan burst into tears, slapping himself repeatedly across the face. "Please forgive me this once. I was truly bewitched by Mingyue. I don't want a divorce. Divorce is bad for us, but you have to consider our three children, don't you?"
When Qian Peilan saw her son beating her like this, she was heartbroken and secretly blamed Zheng Pei and Huang Ziyao for it.
But now, he had to speak gently to Zheng Pei, “Daughter-in-law, think about it, what good would divorce do us? When you were angry, you thought divorce was a good thing, but have you thought about the three children? The two brothers, Yi'an and Ziyao, are still not married, and Ziyao is still unmarried. Now that Ming'er has been granted the title of Prince, it will be no problem for us to find a good family for Ziyao with his help. If you divorce her, people will think our family is not good enough. Wouldn't Ziyao be dragged down by you for nothing? Can you bear to do that? And as for Consort Zheng, if Prince Cheng knew that she had a divorced aunt, he might also look down on Consort Zheng.”
Zheng Pei thought of her three children and her beloved niece, and her heart wavered. Qian Peilan saw that Zheng Pei was wavering, and immediately pressed her advantage, hitting Huang Haichuan hard, "You good-for-nothing! What did I teach you before? How many times have I told your father to consider your wife's feelings and stay away from those sluts outside? You just wouldn't listen. Now you've fallen into their trap, and your wife has become distant from you. Are you happy now?"
The slaps landed on Huang Haichuan as if they were free.
"Grandmother, please stop hitting Father!" Huang Ziyao quickly spoke up, stopping Qian Peilan's hand.
Qian Peilan stopped abruptly and assured Zheng Pei, "Daughter-in-law, I promise you, this will never happen again. If Haichuan acts recklessly again, I'll be the first to deal with him!"
Zheng Pei sneered inwardly as she listened to Qian Peilan's insincere words. She knew what kind of person Qian Peilan was, and besides, she still remembered when Qian Peilan hit her. Now, these two old hags were clearly making it seem like they couldn't leave without her consent. It seemed she had no choice but to play along with their pretense.
“I’ll think about it! If he performs well, I’m not unwilling to give him a chance. After all, he’s the father of three children, and I don’t want the children to suffer criticism.”
"If that's what you want to think, then that's fine!" Qian Peilan finally laughed, then scolded Huang Haichuan, "Aren't you going to thank your wife!"
