When Yuan Zhao said this, everyone in the room was stunned for a moment, and even Zhou Shiyuan couldn't help but look at Yuan Zhao.
The happiest person than Yuan Zhao was that his mother was going to be divorced.
Zhou's mother hadn't expected Yuan Zhao to speak up for her. After her initial surprise, she said with a cold laugh:
"Stop your crocodile tears and fake compassion! You're the one who framed me!"
Her eyes were filled with resentment as she looked at Yuan Zhao, but Yuan Zhao seemed oblivious and turned to Zhou's father, saying:
"My lord, if you divorce your mother-in-law now, wouldn't that confirm her infidelity?"
“Our Marquis’s mansion has just been restored to its former status, and many things have happened recently. If these things get out, it will not be good for anyone.”
Hearing this, the Zhou family members felt a surge of anger.
Yuan Zhao spoke with great righteousness, but she didn't even consider why her family had ended up like this.
It's all because of her!
However, Zhou's father couldn't say these words yet; he could only suppress his anger and ask:
"And what do you think?"
"Why not let my mother-in-law reflect on her mistakes in the Buddhist hall?"
Yuan Zhao spoke.
Upon hearing this, Zhou's father looked at Yuan Zhao for a long while, thought for a moment, and finally nodded, saying:
"Then we'll do as you say."
Zhou's mother never imagined that she was spared from being divorced because of Yuan Zhao.
Just now, when Zhou's father wanted to divorce her, her own son stood aside without saying a word. In the end, the one who saved her from being divorced was actually her most hated daughter-in-law. How ironic.
She couldn't understand why Yuan Zhao would do that.
Just then, Wenfeng also came in with a doctor, saying he wanted to treat Zhou's mother.
Zhou's mother looked at Yuan Zhao with even more complicated emotions; she didn't believe Yuan Zhao would treat her well.
"You slut, what trick are you trying to pull now?"
Yuan Zhao looked at her and said calmly:
“Although you don’t like me, you are still my mother-in-law, and I’m just doing what I should do.”
Yuan Zhao spoke these words frankly, making him a model of repaying evil with good.
Looking at the mad and vicious Zhou's mother, the difference in their character becomes immediately apparent.
The elders of the Zhou family couldn't help but say:
"The Crown Prince has married a wonderful wife!"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Shiyuan felt a lump in his throat, feeling incredibly aggrieved.
This woman is really good at pretending. She's clearly a shrew in private, but she manages to earn a good reputation in front of others, and the key is that they can't refute her.
Zhou's father and Zhou Shiyuan clearly shared the same thought; they no longer wanted to deal with the Zhou family elders. After exchanging a few pleasantries, they left with sullen faces.
The matter concerning Zhou's mother is a huge blow to the reputation of the Marquis's mansion, and they must think carefully about what to do.
The Zhou family members gradually took their leave. The doctor examined Zhou's mother and said that her condition was not good.
Yuan Zhao spoke:
"Please, you must save my mother-in-law's life."
Upon hearing this, even the doctor was impressed by Yuan Zhao's kind and benevolent heart.
Recently, the matter at the Yongning Marquis's residence has been making headlines, and even he has heard about it. This Marquis's wife is no good person. Not only did she embezzle the dowry, but she also cheated her daughter-in-law, leaving the dignified wife of the Marquis's heir to go hungry.
However, now that the Marquis's wife is in trouble, the only person who cares about her and wants to save her life is this daughter-in-law.
I wonder if the Marquis's wife will feel guilty?
The answer is naturally no.
As soon as the doctor left, Zhou's mother said coldly:
"Don't think that I'll let you off the hook just because you did that."
Upon hearing Zhou's mother's words, Yuan Zhao couldn't help but scoff:
"Mother-in-law, do you have some misunderstanding about me?"
Zhou's mother is really not very bright, no wonder the old lady of the Zhou family chose her as her daughter-in-law.
Such a simple mind is easier to control.
In their past life, it was like this: Zhou's mother always took the lead, while Old Madam Zhou always hid behind the scenes to do the good deeds, leaving all the bad things to Zhou's mother alone. She was incredibly foolish.
Seeing that Zhou's mother still didn't understand, Yuan Zhao said sarcastically:
"Do you know why I'm sparing your life?"
"I just want you to taste the bitterness I suffered in the past."
Sometimes, living is more painful than dying.
This old hag told her to beg Rong Ruo, and scolded her every day for not being a virtuous woman. Now, she wanted to make him taste the bitterness she had suffered in the past and let him see the coldness of human relationships.
What could be more heartbreaking than being rejected by one's husband, son, or daughter?
She wanted to make Zhou's mother experience it properly!
