If it weren't for the wrong timing, Su Qingyu would have wanted to applaud Shen Zhao. He finally acted like a man.
Shen Zhao's words were a new round of humiliation for Li Chaoyun.
The only difference is that before, the two of them humiliated her in bed, but now Shen Zhao humiliated her in public.
Li Chaoyun stood up, walked to the middle of the hall and faced the old lady.
With a look of shame and indignation, he said, "Since the young master has said so much, I won't hide it anymore."
"Before they caught the adulterer today, the adulterer and the adulteress didn't forget to humiliate me while they were having sex in bed."
She turned to look at Shen Zhao, sneered, as if she had nothing to worry about, and then walked to the old lady.
In a voice that only the two of them could hear, he said, "Grandma, the eldest young master said I'm boring in bed. I can't moan as well as this bitch, and I can't say dirty words as well as this bitch."
"This little bitch went even further, asking the young master what my expression was. She even asked him if I was in bed, all while acting like a princess."
"Grandmother, you are wise. If I don't kill this bitch today, I..."
The old lady looked shocked. She didn't expect these two people to say such excessive words. She cursed Shen Zhao in her heart for being too confused. No matter what, he couldn't slander his wife like this with other women.
This woman really cannot be kept. Favoring a concubine and neglecting the wife is the root cause of family chaos.
Li Chaoyun was really risking his life today. In order to get the old lady to make this decision, he did not hesitate to tell such an embarrassing thing.
Fortunately, these words were not spoken in vain. The old lady pondered for a moment and said, "Drag this woman away and beat her to death. As for Shen Zhao, first go to the ancestral hall and kneel for three days, begging for forgiveness from our ancestors. After three days, we will start the punishment."
Su Qingyu looked at Li Chaoyun curiously, wondering what she had said to the old lady.
But she couldn't ask this question, maybe the old lady would tell her tomorrow.
When Shen Zhao heard that Jiang Chenyue was going to be beaten to death, he immediately became anxious.
He crawled step by step to the old lady's feet, "Grandma, please spare her life. If you beat her to death, your grandson will not live either."
Shen Zhiheng, who was sitting on the side, became furious when he heard this. What a good son he was, he was willing to die for a woman.
Shen Zhiheng cursed loudly: "You die now, preferably before this woman, and I will just pretend that I never gave birth to a son like you."
After cursing, he coughed violently again. He quickly took out a bottle of medicine from his pocket, poured out two pills and put them in his mouth.
The old lady frowned, "Boss, what medicine are you taking? Why isn't your cough getting better?"
Shen Zhiheng had been visiting her less often recently, and whenever he did, he would just sit for a short while before leaving. She hadn't noticed that his cough hadn't gotten better, but had gotten worse.
Shen Zhiheng calmly put the medicine bottle back and said to the old lady in a comforting tone, "Don't worry, mother. I'm much better now. I was just angry."
"The disease comes like a mountain falling, and goes away like a thread being pulled out. The doctor said it's nothing serious, so don't worry too much, mother."
When the old lady saw that he stopped coughing after taking two pills, she didn't think much of it.
Instead, he turned to look at Shen Zhao and said disappointedly: "What are you doing? Are you threatening me like this for a woman?"
"Do you really want to die? Do you want me to send your son off?"
As the old lady spoke, she slammed the nanmu table hard.
Shen Zhiheng, who was standing aside, suddenly had reddened eyes. Then, in an instant, they returned to normal.
Of course Shen Zhao didn't want to die, but he was just relying on the old lady's love and care for him, and using himself as a bargaining chip to threaten her.
He looked at the old lady with resentment, "Grandma, I have never loved anyone so much. Please help me. If she is beaten to death like this, I am afraid that my grandson will have a hard time for the rest of his life."
He knelt on the ground and kowtowed to the old lady three times in a row. Because he used so much strength, a large area of his forehead instantly became red and swollen.
The old lady really loved her grandson. Seeing him like this, she knew that he was really in love with her.
He was even more determined to get rid of Jiang Chenyue, but for Chen Zhao's sake, he wanted to slow down a bit.
"Chen Zhao should go to the ancestral hall and kneel first, and Jiang Chenyue should be confined to Pinghu Residence first."
"Let's leave it at that for now. We can discuss it in detail tomorrow. That's all for today."
Fearing that Li Chaoyun would have an opinion, the old lady called Li Chaoyun to her side and comforted and explained things to him.
But Li Chaoyun disagreed with the old lady's words, saying that the person must not be kept, but it was just empty talk. She was able to spare the life of this bitch today because she felt sorry for Shen Zhao, so should she give her a proper status next?
What if it takes a month and this bitch gets pregnant?
But Li Chaoyun didn't say much to the old lady. He expressed his understanding, but he had other plans in his mind.
When Shen Zhao heard that Jiang Chenyue had been saved, he was overjoyed. He returned to Jiang Chenyue and comforted her, "Don't worry, my grandmother said that if you are confined to your home, she won't take your life again."
Jiang Chenyue was unsure. Chen Zhao was punished to kneel in the ancestral hall. What would he do if these people attacked him again?
But this result is already the best at the moment, and Jiang Chenyue didn't dare to say anything else.
Immediately afterwards, Chen Zhao was taken to the ancestral hall, and Jiang Chenyue was sent back to the main courtyard for house arrest. Everyone else also returned to their own courtyards, even Li Chaoyun hurriedly left.
Su Qingyu fell behind a few steps and walked to the old lady's side. "Let me take my mother back. I can still talk to her on the way."
Shen Zhixiu followed behind the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, listening quietly without interrupting.
After leaving Pinghu Residence, the old lady said to Su Qingyu, "In a few days, I will find an opportunity to get rid of that woman."
"I thought my mother really wanted to keep her."
The old lady shook her head and said, "I can't protect her. I can tolerate her, but the princess can't."
He sighed again and said, "As for couples, I'm most afraid of them being like this. Just wait and see, there will be more quarrels in the future because of the concubine issue."
Su Qingyu was puzzled, "What does mother mean by that?"
The old lady was disturbed by this incident and no longer felt sleepy, so she started chatting with Su Qingyu.
"There are three types of couples in wealthy families. One type doesn't take concubines. Some do it because of a good relationship, some because of family rules, and some because the wife is strict and the man accepts it."
"After all, men know in their hearts that this concubine cannot be taken."
"Another type is when the wife agrees to take a concubine. She manages the inner house well and helps the family expand. This is the majority."
"Both of these can bring harmony to the couple and a peaceful home."
Su Qingyu listened carefully, "What about the third option?"
The old lady said in a deep voice: “The third type is like Princess Shen Zhaohe, who can’t control men and still wants to control them forcefully. The family is in chaos and there is no peace.”
"If this continues, there are only two outcomes. One is that Li Chaoyun accepts it and can focus on managing the inner house and raising his children. The other is that Shen Zhao is defeated by Li Chaoyun and never dares to touch other women again."
"But one thing is for sure. Li Chaoyun doesn't have her mother's skills, so the outcome is still unknown."
