Chen Zuo was imposing and awe-inspiring.
Chen Zhi didn't feel anything.
Chen Zuo is so capable, he never bothered with her before. And this time, it's not about him either.
However, Chen Zhi was secretly pleased that Chen Zhun's loving family was in such a bad mood.
Yu got anxious and defended Chen Zhun, arguing with the old man: "How can the old man afford to suffer this?"
Chen Zhun felt sorry for his daughter and for women, and retorted to his father, "Did I kill that slut?"
Enraged, Chen Zuo kicked him without hesitation, pointing at Madam You and yelling, "At your age, acting all seductive! A concubine is a concubine! Get out of here, I'll settle the score with you later!"
Chen Zhun's wife and daughter were about to cry with him, and were truly frightened by the old man.
The You family member turned pale with fright.
Chen Zuo kicked Chen Zhun again: "You bastard! Whose father are you? Anyone who takes a concubine as his wife while his wife is alive shall be punished with ninety strokes of the cane. You owed this beating long ago!"
Chen Zhun was also furious: "My son never intended to marry that slut back then!"
Chen Zuo pointed at You Shi and cursed, "You married this unfaithful woman who seduced you early on?"
Chen Ke was furious and cursed his mother!
Chen Zuo roared, "How did you get here? Did no one tell you? Your mother came here through an affair! If you'd behaved yourself, that would be one thing, but now you're still so arrogant. Who do you think you are?"
Chen Ke thought he was very capable, having passed the imperial examination and become a Grand Secretary before the age of thirty.
I will definitely clear his mother's name!
Chen Zuo's face was even darker than the sky: "Don't you know you're finished? Don't you know that what your mother did will come back to haunt you sooner or later?"
You cried out, "It's all my fault."
Chen Zuo's face grew even darker: "Stop causing trouble! Aren't you smart? Don't you know it would be best if you were dead?"
"Mother!" Chen Yue and her two sisters were stunned! They hugged their mother and cried.
"Grandfather!" Chen Ke was furious.
"If Father is going to force the You family to their deaths today, he might as well force me to my death too!" Chen Zhun's stance was clear and firm.
What a wonderful family! It's truly touching.
Chen Zhi said weakly to her grandfather, "They are a family, but you are not."
Chen Zuo looked down at her.
Chen Zhi was terrified, but she couldn't miss such a good opportunity. People are made through hard work: "Those who obey me prosper, those who oppose me perish. If my grandfather doesn't obey his family, then we can just give up on him."
Chen Zhi had a slap mark on her face, and her appearance was not good.
She was terrified; Chen Zuo was truly formidable.
Chen Zhun's family dared to disobey, but Chen Zhi did not; she was afraid of dying.
The Chen family was attracted to Chen Zhi.
Chen Yue angrily cursed, "You bitch!"
Chen Zuo stared at Madam You: "You're really something! You're very good! Then let's settle your score first. Has the Chen family mistreated you all these years? Has the You family mistreated you? Has your son grown up? How can you face the Chen family and your children in the future?"
The You family was unwilling to accept this.
Chen Zuo said sharply, "Do you think you're all that now that the You family is doing well? Don't you know what's going on with the You family? Do you think the You family can get away with nothing after what happened to the Dong family?"
Chen Yue hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with Uncle?"
Chen Zuo sneered, "Very well! In a few years, when I breathe my last, the Chen family will have to change its surname to You." He then asked Chen Ke, "You, this filial son, should be very happy! But if you take the surname Chen, you'll inevitably favor your concubines over your wife and kill your children!"
Chen Ke's face was completely bloodless.
A large crowd gathered around the Chen family.
Many people came today just to watch the excitement.
Although the Chen family is not as easily visible as the Pei family, Chen Zuo seems to be intentionally conveying his attitude.
So what if there's something wrong? He'll handle it. Can't he even handle a concubine?
Unfortunately, there was no mistress present, so Chen Zuo had to deal with his favorite concubine personally.
Lady You replied decisively, "It was my fault. I will practice self-cultivation from now on."
Anyway, the housekeeper has her daughter-in-law. She'll come back with her head held high once her son has turned his life around!
They were shameless back then, but what are they now?
Back then, because of the You family, she had no choice but to try her best to seduce Chen Zhun, since the Marquis of Jianping's mansion looked down on her. That's a fact.
But I have no regrets. The You family is very successful now, it was just a little bit short.
Chen Yue cried out anxiously, "Mother!"
Chen Zhun realized: "The child is still young!"
Chen Zuo was extremely disappointed in him: "Your brain has been completely emptied by the You family. You can't live without her. It's good that the You family is manipulating my eldest son like this. And these children, they've all grown up and they've completely disgraced us."
You had no choice but to kneel down.
Without the Chen family's help, the You family would naturally not be doing so well.
Now that Chen Zhun has been dismissed from his post, the situation may be even more dangerous.
Otherwise, the old man wouldn't have gotten so angry; You Shi began to understand.
It's because she's had such a smooth life these past few years; her eldest son is riding high, and her second son is about to pass the imperial examination with flying colors.
Her daughter is also excellent, and Mrs. You is making plans for her.
Chen Zhi suggested to the old man, "The one who is to marry the Prince of Qi is the eldest daughter of the Chen family. Our family has always regarded Chen Yue as the eldest daughter. If we register her under my mother's name, wouldn't she be the eldest daughter?"
Chen Yue was furious: "What did you say?"
Chen Zhi trembled with fear, her face still stinging, tears streaming down her face, but she had to hold back: "Fine, if you don't want to, then so be it. I'm not worthy, but you are. If the Chen family says you're the eldest daughter, who can stop them? Can my mother stop them?"
Chen Yue burst into tears.
Chen Zhi suppressed a sarcastic laugh; she was tempted.
Although Chen Yueji's registration under the Meng family's name didn't have much impact on the Meng family, it was a huge slap in the face to the You family.
Their family was no longer complete. Despite her efforts to ignore it, Madam Meng still maintained her dominant position as the legal wife.
The Meng family was originally doing well, but in recent years, they have been suppressed by Chen Zhun and are no longer as powerful as the You family.
Chen Zhi didn't rely on the Meng family; she didn't rely on anyone.
Chen Zuo squinted and asked Chen Zhi, "And you?"
Chen Zhi lowered her head, frightened: "I am not worthy of being your granddaughter. I will only be a concubine and do not seek favor."
Chen Zhun roared, "Shut up!"
Chen Zuo was furious at the placenta: "Your father isn't dead yet! This family isn't yours to call the shots! Is this the work of the You family again? When I breathe my last, will the entire Chen family be yours?"
You hurriedly kowtowed.
Chen Zhun was furious: "Father, why do you always pick on a woman?"
Chen Zuo was furious: "Is it me who's at odds with her? You can't live without her! You venomous woman! You troublemaker! My Chen family will be ruined because of you!"
Chen Zhun has a good son, and he's very confident: "Impossible!"
Chen Zuo's patience ran out, and he ordered his men, "Drag him away and give him a hundred lashes. If anyone doesn't do it properly, I'll kill him!"
Gritting my teeth!
Chen Zhi was worried that he would die of anger on the spot.
Chen Zuo's men had no choice but to stall Chen Zhun.
Chen Zhi suppressed a sarcastic laugh.
As expected, You Shi, Chen Ke, Chen Yue, and a group of others blocked Chen Zhun's way.
Madam You shouted, "I agree, let Chen Yue be registered under the First Madam's name."
Chen Yue stubbornly declared, "No way! Mom, I don't want to call anyone else 'Mom'!"
Chen Zuo laughed angrily: "As expected, you're the one who decides everything in the Chen family. My words are no longer valid. A concubine's daughter doesn't acknowledge her legitimate mother. If you, Madam You, don't die, the Chen family will surely perish."
You slapped Chen Yue across the face.
The fact is, only she could keep the Chen family in check.
Chen Zhi lowered her head and sneered. The old man is only just finding out?
Enraged, Chen Yue lunged at Chen Zhi and hit her.
Chen Zuo kicked her away; she was just a granddaughter, he didn't need her.
Chen Zuo also gave an order: "If you want to become the Princess Consort of Qi, change your name too."
