Before Fang Chunlan walked out of the village, she ran into Cheng's mother and Cheng's eldest brother Cheng Maiqing, followed by Lin Jiayu.
Cheng's mother's expression was calm, and there was nothing wrong with her fair, round face, except for her slightly red eyes, which showed that she had been crying. Cheng Maiqing opened his eyes wide with anger, and the veins on his forehead were visible. When he saw Fang Chunlan, he snorted fiercely.
Fang Chunlan secretly cried out in disbelief.
His son had caused such a big obstacle for Lin Jiayu, and the other party would definitely not let him off easily. He was afraid that he had already told the Cheng family everything that happened last night without reservation.
Fang Chunlan stepped forward with a forced smile, "Mother-in-law, his elder brother..."
Cheng's mother ignored her, and Cheng Maiqing snorted again: "No, we can't afford it."
Fang Chunlan was deliberately humiliated by the two men. Although she was not angry, she felt a little embarrassed and led them into the house.
When Cheng's mother saw Cheng Maixiang sitting there alone, and her son-in-law who was supposed to receive them was nowhere to be found, tears welled up in her eyes again, but she forced them back.
Cheng Maiqing grabbed the girl's hand and said sadly, "Maizi, I'm sorry for putting you through this!"
Cheng Maixiang took her brother's hand and imitated the way the original owner acted like a spoiled child, "Brother, my sister has been bullied. You must help me get justice."
Cheng Maiqing had a gloomy face the entire time. Seeing that Wu Jiadong didn't come out to greet them and even avoided them after entering the house, he became even more dissatisfied. "Where is Wu Jiadong? Why is he hiding from us?"
Fang Chunlan couldn't help but feel some resentment towards her son. He had caused such a big trouble that his mother-in-law and brother-in-law came to visit. At least he should come out to meet them. After all, he was acting like a son-in-law. But now he was fooling around in the new house with a woman of questionable character. If she were Cheng Maixiang's mother, she would probably have a fit on the spot.
But no matter how dissatisfied he was, he still had to smooth things over for his own son.
"Qingzi, Jiadong got drunk last night and caused such an embarrassing incident. He was too embarrassed to face his in-laws and you, so he had to hide away. Please be magnanimous and don't bother with this rude scoundrel."
Cheng Maiqing snorted, "A real man should be brave enough to take responsibility for his actions. If he encounters trouble, it's no use hiding like a turtle."
Cheng's mother ignored her and just held Cheng Maixiang's hand and asked softly, "Maizi, how are you going to deal with this?"
"Mom, I want to divorce Wu Jiadong."
When Cheng Maixiang said this, both Cheng's mother and Cheng Maiqing were surprised.
Especially Cheng's mother, she couldn't believe that she could say that she would break off relations with Wu Jiadong. After all, Cheng Maixiang had been obsessed with Wu Jiadong for the past two years, and everyone saw it.
This time, after hearing what Lin Jiayu said, the two of them hurried over. They originally thought that based on Cheng Maixiang's personality, she would just cry and make a fuss, and use the fact that her family was there to force Wu Jiadong to break up with Zhao Linlin and stop having any contact with her, and then they would expose the matter. They didn't expect that she actually had this idea.
"Maizi, you and Jiadong have been together for two years, there must still be some feelings for each other, you can't just break up like that!" Fang Chunlan tried to persuade him earnestly, fearing that Cheng Maixiang would really break up with her son, and then her son would really get nothing.
"Mother-in-law, her eldest brother, you can also help persuade her. People often say that it is better to demolish a temple than to regret a marriage. The marriage has been completed. If we break it up, it will be a joke. It will not be good for Jiadong and Maizi.
Moreover, as your mother-in-law, I can assure you that I will definitely chase that bitch away. Maizi is the legitimate daughter-in-law of the Wu family, and no one can take her place!"
"Maizi, have you thought it through?" Cheng's mother ignored Fang Chunlan's words and asked Cheng Maixiang cautiously, fearing that she was just angry and would regret it later, and then she would not be able to hold her head up in the Wu family.
"Think it through, Mom. I'm not angry. I'm scared just thinking about someone who dares to put drugs in my drink. How could I spend my whole life with him?"
Seeing that her face was calm and she seemed not sad at all, Cheng's mother found it a little strange, but she had no time to investigate further. She just turned around and told Cheng Maiqing, "Then let's go. When we get home, find a few people to go to the Wu family and take away Maizi's dowry. Also, bring over the fifty yuan that the Wu family gave us."
Cheng Maiqing had originally disapproved of her sister's marriage, but upon hearing what Cheng's mother said, she immediately stood up and said, "Don't worry, Mom, I will take care of this little thing."
The three were about to leave when Wu Jiadong suddenly rushed in, "Cheng Maixiang, are you really going to break up with me?"
Cheng Maiqing was already furious when he saw him coming in rashly, with neither Cheng's mother nor his brother-in-law in his eyes. He then thought of the bad things Cheng had done to his sister, and clenched his fists. If he hadn't seen that his face had been swollen from being hit, he almost wanted to hit him in the face.
Cheng's mother quietly pulled him aside and said softly, "A person like this isn't worth getting your hands dirty with."
Cheng Maiqing took a deep breath and looked at Zhao Linlin who had followed him. He asked coldly, "Wu Jiadong, what's going on with her? My sister is the one you're marrying, so why is this woman staying with you in your bridal chamber?"
Wu Jiadong needed help from Cheng Maiqing, but he also did not take this countryman seriously. He believed that Cheng Maiqing could become the captain of Shuangshui Brigade because there were no talented people in the countryside. It was like picking a general from a group of short men. Moreover, how many problems could a small rural area have to solve?
But at this moment, this shorty whom he looked down upon actually dared to question him in front of so many people. With his blood boiling, he said bluntly, "Cheng Maixiang also spent the whole night with Lin Jiayu last night. How dare you say that to me?"
Seeing that he had no idea of his wrongdoing and was still trying to get close to his sister, Cheng Maiqing became even more angry: "That's all your fault. You actually drugged your own bride and messed around with other women. And in the end, you even dared to blame others. This is the first time I, Cheng Maiqing, have seen such a shameless person in my life."
