The air was thick with a dry, stifling heat, but the ancestral hall was the only one sheltered by the shade of trees.
Sunlight streamed brilliantly through the trees.
Even the cicadas' chirping didn't want to disturb the tranquility of the ancestral hall.
Qu Jian'er looked around and realized that the respect in everyone's eyes was genuine.
Zuo Chen hooked Qu Jian'er's hand: "Don't worry too much about this so-called recognition."
He said it frankly.
After all, no one in the Zuo family has ever had their wife recognized.
Just as Qu Jian'er was about to enter the ancestral hall.
"If she doesn't get approval, does that mean she won't be a member of our Zuo family?"
The Second Madam Zuo's out-of-place voice broke in.
These words were spoken.
Everyone instinctively looked at Zuo Chen's face.
Zuo Zhoubai spoke first, his words filled with displeasure: "Second brother, keep your wife in check."
Zuo Lao Er wished he could cover his wife's mouth. He pulled her and quickly retreated behind the crowd.
Madam Zuo disagreed: "Let go. I'm only doing this to promote the recognition ability of our ancestors."
She pulled back the sleeve that had been grabbed.
Very confident and assertive.
Zuo Zhijing and Gu Siyu rushed forward, trying to persuade the people to speak less, but this only displeased Madam Zuo.
Looking at the person before him, Zuo Lao Er felt a surge of annoyance for the first time. He had indulged his wife many times, but this time the issue was too serious, and he found it difficult to tolerate it.
Madam Zuo glanced at Zuo Chen, who was surrounded by the crowd, and said, "It's all for their own good."
She said this with a clear conscience, completely forgetting that she herself was not accepted when she married into the Zuo family.
Upon hearing this...
Zuo Zhijing and Zuo Jing felt a sudden unease.
They all looked at Zuo Chen.
Then I saw it.
Zuo Chen smiled and turned to the side.
There was no emotion in his eyes.
There was not a trace of anger.
Like a calm lake.
Yet, it still gave Madam Zuo a strange feeling of being looked down upon and being looked down upon by the other party.
She involuntarily stepped back.
Zuo Chen suddenly said out of the blue, "I heard that Second Aunt has been very busy lately, going in and out of the Gu family and the Black family. I wonder what she's been doing?"
Madam Zuo was sweating profusely. She glared at Zuo Chen and said, "So, you're saying I have to report to you when I go back to my daughter-in-law's family home, my own family home?!"
She didn't know how her whereabouts were exposed; she had clearly been avoiding everyone.
But faced with the questioning gazes of the crowd.
In order to prevent her secret collusion with both families from being exposed, she had no choice but to bite the bullet and refute them.
Zuo Chen sneered: "You'd better just go back to your parents' home."
Everyone was startled by the laughter.
They remembered their husband's unusual behavior.
At this moment, Zuo Chen did not look like a businessman. He wore the same high-quality, cream-colored long gown with Chinese knot buttons as Qu Jian'er, which made him look like an elegant and refined gentleman.
The six wooden beads on his wrist gave him an air of tranquility and serenity.
But his sharp and impolite words made no one feel that he had become gentler.
The sunlight was perfect, and tiny dust particles floated in the light, just as at this moment, all the things that Madam Zuo had done behind the scenes were now completely exposed to Zuo Chen.
Madam Zuo tried to overwhelm everyone with her voice: "I...I just went back to take a look!"
Her fragmented words were scattered by the wind, turning into a pile of loose sand that could not be held or grasped.
Zuo Chen ignored her.
He glanced at Qu Jian'er, who was watching the play from the side.
He affectionately raised his hand and tapped the other person's forehead.
Zuo Chen made no attempt to hide his favoritism towards Qu Jian'er: "Even if they are the ones in question, they shouldn't be pointing fingers at our relationship. Since you're curious, let's go in and take a look."
His words revealed his lack of regard for recognition, and this was the first time he had revealed his true nature in front of the Zuo family.
Good fortune is gradually returning.
This gave Zuo Chen a lot of confidence, which inadvertently fueled his domineering aura.
If Qu Jian'er hadn't been curious about the matter of the ancestral tablet's approval, he wouldn't have remained silent, and he wouldn't have given the Zuo family any opportunity to voice their doubts.
Qu Jian'er blew a kiss at the perfect moment: "Keep up the domineering aura!"
Zuo Chen watched Qu Jian'er's retreating figure helplessly.
Wait until the door closes.
Until he can no longer see people.
Then he turned to look at the Second Madam.
At this moment, Zuo Chen's presence inexplicably made those with ulterior motives feel somewhat at a loss.
He Yun wanted to comfort Zuo Chen, but felt she had no reason to, so she also held down her husband's hand.
Witnessing the arrogant arrival.
Just one glance at Zuo Chen and these people felt as if they were in a deep-sea whirlpool, their consciousness being swallowed by danger, something they could neither resist nor escape.
Zuo Chen's eyes were slightly gloomy: "Are you going to admit it yourself, or should I provide evidence?"
His shadow was stretched long by the sunlight.
It stood directly in front of everyone.
It's like a bottomless, dark abyss.
Only then did everyone realize what had happened.
What happened just now was merely an appetizer; Zuo Chen's true outburst is only now beginning.
He was criticized to his face by a younger person.
The second wife on the left suffered great humiliation.
Just as she was about to have an attack.
Zuo Chen said coldly, "You won't shed a tear until you see the coffin."
It can be said that, apart from his parents, he didn't trust anyone in the entire Zuo family.
Since the decision was made to overthrow the empire, their every move, including Zuo Zhijing's, has been under Zuo Chen's surveillance.
The gray network is on standby 24 hours a day to prevent anyone from blindly choosing the wrong side.
Madam Zuo's face flushed with embarrassment, and she was speechless with anger: "You!"
