Upon hearing Yuan Zhao mention Zhou Shiyuan's name, the eldest sister-in-law's eyes revealed a hint of disgust:
"No! But he's not far from death."
Zhou Shiyuan was already on his last breath, and now with no one to take care of him, his condition is said to be very bad.
"It's already a miracle that the second and third wives didn't take the opportunity to kill him, let alone take care of him."
"As for his father."
The older sister-in-law paused here, then a hint of disdain flashed in her eyes:
"That shameless old man completely ignores him and is currently searching everywhere for his concubine."
She felt nauseous when she heard this news.
Everyone knows what happened to that concubine. She was Zhou Shiyuan's mistress who was kept outside the home, but later, for various reasons, she was taken in as a concubine by Zhou's father.
Now, Zhou's father is actually willing to disregard the life and death of his own son for the sake of Bai Mianmian.
People outside have been talking about this for the past two days.
Yuan Zhao smiled but remained silent; she could guess part of the reason.
Zhou's father didn't have any deep feelings for Bai Mianmian; he just wanted to regain his virility through her, so naturally he couldn't give her up.
As for Zhou Shiyuan, now that his son is practically useless, how could he possibly still care about him?
At this moment, in a refugee shack in Taipei, Zhou Shiyuan was panting heavily.
His condition was very bad; he felt pain in his internal organs, but there was no one to take care of him.
Zhou's father abandoned him here and never cared for him again; the only thing keeping him company was his grandmother's corpse.
He lay there, staring blankly at the dilapidated roof.
He couldn't understand how he had ended up in such a state!
He was clearly the heir of the Yongning Marquis's mansion, and he clearly possessed astonishing knowledge.
However, in the end, he not only failed to realize his ambitions, but also ended up in such a wretched state, neither human nor ghost.
Many images flashed through his mind: the scene of his wedding with Yuan Zhao, the scene of him and Bai Mianmian together when the family was in trouble, and the scene of him returning to the capital in high spirits after three years of frustration.
Now, he has met such a tragic end.
It shouldn't be like this; it shouldn't be like this at all.
Suddenly, many fragments of memories that did not belong to him flashed through Zhou Shiyuan's mind.
In the story, he became the emperor's close advisor, an object of worship for countless students, and most importantly, he completely suppressed the Yuan family.
Yuan Zhao, in particular, dared not resist him at all; whatever he said went.
The Yuan Zhao in the picture is nothing like she is now. She is weak and ugly. Even if he tortures her, she would never dare to say a word against it.
That was his life.
Why did he end up like this?
Zhou Shiyuan's chest suddenly heaved violently, and then he suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood and stopped moving.
When Zhou's father returned home after searching in vain, he discovered that his son and his mother's bodies were gone.
He quickly asked someone, and one person impatiently told him:
"Your son is dead, they carried him out and threw him away."
"Your mother's corpse is stinking, infested with maggots..."
Upon hearing this, Zhou's father was taken aback at first, then said:
"You're talking nonsense, how could my son..."
Before he could finish speaking, he realized something.
In fact, he himself felt that Zhou Shiyuan was not going to live.
That's fine too. Anyway, he didn't have any money to treat him. It's better for him to die. It'll end it all and even save on burial costs.
fine……
