Before Zhou's mother could recover from the servant's words, she heard Yuan Zhao say this, and immediately screamed:
"You're talking nonsense."
"I didn't, I didn't!"
At this moment, Zhou's mother was completely devoid of the demeanor of a lady from a prominent family. She appeared mad, her voice shrill, and she looked utterly disheveled.
The sharp sound pierced Zhou's father's ears, and he felt as if he was being cuckolded more and more.
I initially thought it was just one person, but now it turns out there are two.
These are all things he found out; what about the things he didn't find out?
Has she been restless all these past three years?
If she could send Yuan Zhao to Rong Ruo, how could she possibly stay put herself?
Some things are better left unthought; once you start thinking about them, you feel there are doubts everywhere.
Unfortunately, Zhou's mother had no evidence to refute him whatsoever, only making a fuss. He couldn't take it anymore and kicked her.
"You bitch!"
Zhou's father was also a soldier, and he used all his strength in that kick. Zhou's mother couldn't withstand such a kick and was immediately kicked away, vomiting a mouthful of blood. She could only exhale and not inhale.
Yuan Zhao's eyes turned cold upon seeing this.
It seems that Zhou Shiyuan's scumbag nature is inherited from his father. He showed no mercy to his wife, who had been with him for many years and bore him children.
She couldn't help but look at Zhou Shiyuan, her gaze growing increasingly cold.
Zhou Shiyuan, the biological son, merely frowned slightly at his seriously injured mother, showing no intention of going forward to care for her, let alone finding a doctor.
Compared to his mother lying on the ground, Zhou Shiyuan cared more about his reputation.
Indeed, there's always a reason why someone is pitiful!
Yuan Zhao turned to Wen Feng and whispered a few words to him. Wen Feng understood and went out to find a doctor.
Seeing Zhou's mother like this, the elders of the Zhou family felt their anger subside somewhat.
"This vile woman has ruined the reputation of my Zhou family. Now our Zhou family has become a laughing stock in the eyes of many people. My lord, what do you think we should do about this?"
Upon hearing this, Zhou's father coldly replied:
“Since she has done such a shameful thing, my Zhou family will naturally not tolerate it.”
"Bring me pen and ink."
Hearing this, it was clear that the father intended to divorce Zhou's mother. Zhou's mother didn't know where the strength came from, but she suddenly got up from the ground and rushed over to hug Zhou's father's leg tightly.
"My lord, my lord, please believe me. I have truly been wronged."
Mr. Zhou kicked her away, not even glancing at his wife, who lay lifeless on the ground; his eyes were filled with disgust.
Whether it's true or not is no longer important. What's important is that the news that his wife's personal belongings were in the hands of the coachman has spread far and wide. Neither he nor the Marquis's mansion can afford to lose face like this.
The only thing he needs to do now is to divorce Zhou's mother as soon as possible. If it weren't for the fact that Zhou's mother's family now has some influence, he would have chosen to drown her.
The servant was very quick and immediately brought over the writing brush and ink.
As Zhou's father was about to write the letter of divorce, Zhou's mother's eyes were filled with despair.
She's so old and she's been divorced. How is she going to live her life from now on?
Moreover, being divorced on such a charge means her father and brothers will certainly not even let her into their home.
It would be better for him to die than to die like that. At least he could salvage some of his reputation, which would be better for his son and daughter.
With this thought in mind, Zhou's mother staggered to her feet, intending to bang her head against the wall, but then she heard Yuan Zhao speak:
"My lord, I feel it is inappropriate to divorce my mother at this time!"
