The Zhao family also kept their guard up and did not agree to remarry Luo, but they were just less wary of her.
It actually meant giving them a chance, implying that if they really changed, they would remarry.
With advice from her family, Luo didn't act recklessly. She obediently continued to pretend, forcing herself to change her image. She used to dislike doing housework and chores, but in order to show the Zhao family her change, she took the initiative and worked diligently!
This pleased the Zhao family quite a bit. Luo Shi, having heard from her family, used some tricks and got back together with Zhao Shuisheng. Now it wasn't just a matter of giving him a chance!
Luo returned to her parents' home in tears. Soon after, the Luo family came to her door, crying and saying that Luo was now without a proper status, which would be bad if word got out. They also said that the Zhao family had no intention of remarrying, so they should hurry up and marry Luo off to a distant place. They had only come to discuss this matter!
This has put the Zhao family in a difficult position. They haven't even confirmed whether Luo has truly changed her ways, and now this has happened. What should they do?
If word gets out, the Zhao family will be very embarrassed!
Zhao Shuisheng realized that he had fallen into a trap set by Luo Shi, but it was too late. He didn't have time to hate Luo Shi anymore; he had to resolve the matter first!
After much deliberation, Zhao Shuisheng said coldly, "I don't want to say anything more. Luo Shi knows best what really happened! If she's pregnant, I'll take responsibility; if she's not, then she'll have to take responsibility herself! If she agrees, she can stay; if she doesn't, then she can stay away from the Zhao family. I'm not afraid of what you spread! You can spread rumors, and so can we!"
When the Luo family heard these words, they naturally knew that Zhao Shuisheng had realized what was going on, but since things had come to this point, they could only shamelessly pretend that they knew nothing. Anyway, they weren't embarrassed; it was others who would be embarrassed!
In the end, the Luo family kept Luo Shi with them, which was exactly what they wanted. So without much thought, they said a few insincere words and then all left.
They felt that Luo should be able to handle it; it was her former husband's family, and if she worked hard, it would soon be her own home again!
In such a familiar place, one should feel right at home, without any obstacles whatsoever!
Although Zhao Shuisheng discovered their scheme, so what? He could only swallow his pride and bear it.
This kind of thing is impossible to explain clearly. Outsiders don't know, so whatever they say is what they believe!
As long as Mr. Luo can persevere, be patient, and control his temper, things won't be too bad for him!
Maybe they'll get rich along with them!
But old habits die hard, and that's no exaggeration. Under the watchful eyes of the Zhao family, Luo didn't last long before her true colors began to show.
She thought Zhao Shuisheng was determined to marry her, so she stopped pretending. Pretending wasn't tiring at all!
One key figure who played an important role was Liu, Luo's former sister-in-law.
After Luo was divorced, Yang went to the Mo family and got some good ideas. The whole family worked together to overcome the difficulties, and their lives gradually improved. As they earned more and more money, Liu's heart slowly changed.
As the saying goes, "Every man for himself," Liu began to plan for her own family's future, putting the money she earned into her own pocket.
Because Liu wanted to separate the family property sooner or later, she felt it was inevitable and needed to plan ahead. The second branch of the family had contributed the most and rightfully deserved the most money. The eldest branch, Zhao Shuisheng, was too busy to manage much himself and didn't do much, so he couldn't be given as much!
Besides, Zhao Shuisheng also plans to remarry. The second wife's family can't afford to lose out like that. They've put in so much effort, and if their mother-in-law says one word, they won't be able to participate in this small business anymore, and it will all benefit the newlywed woman!
This is unacceptable!
Traditionally, people have always lived with the eldest son's wife, and the distribution of property tends to favor the eldest son's wife. The eldest son's wife gets the lion's share, and naturally, the best things are prioritized for her. Those who are second wives are at a disadvantage in this regard!
Liu pocketed a lot of money, thinking she would soon have a new sister-in-law. But instead of a new sister-in-law, she got her old sister-in-law.
The two sisters-in-law had a falling out before, and now that they've met again, they're unlikely to get along!
Women have always been the ones who understand women best, and Liu was the one who understood Luo best. After observing her for a few days, she discovered Luo's flaws and began various provocations and tests.
These cracked eggs are not indestructible. After being tricked by Liu a few times, Luo lost her composure and revealed her weakness, allowing Liu to catch her red-handed!
Luo was no match for Liu. If Liu became ruthless, Luo would have nowhere to hide!
When Zhao Shuisheng saw this, he not only didn't help Luo, but also scolded her. Luo gritted her teeth but couldn't suppress her temper. She endured it again and again, but she still revealed her true colors.
Luo decided to give up and stop pretending. Since Zhao Shuisheng had asked her to stay, she wouldn't leave. She would stay at the Zhao family home and wasn't expected to do any work, but she had to eat her fill, or she would turn the Zhao family upside down!
Zhao Shuisheng also regretted it. He should have sent this plague away earlier. It's easy to invite a god, but hard to send him away!
Luo never even considered leaving the Zhao family again!
I'd rather die than stay in the Zhao family!
The Zhao family is living such a good standard of living now, with plenty to eat and drink, they don't want to kick her out!
However, Luo was still alone, while the Zhao family was not. They joined forces and made Luo suffer terribly. Unfortunately for them, Luo was no ordinary person. She became more courageous as the fight went on and refused to admit defeat!
The Zhao family won't let her have an easy time, and she won't let them have an easy time either. Let's just keep at it like this, and no one will have an easy time!
If you can't kill her, then she'll keep jumping around as much as she can, since she's already gone all out!
Even if things go badly, the worst that can happen is that she goes back to the Luo family and is married off to another place by her family!
But the Zhao family can't afford to wait. They still have to run their small business, so they can't keep taking care of everything. In the long run, they'll be exhausted!
Luo made a request: she could leave, but the Zhao family had to provide her with a business to support herself. After being divorced, it would be difficult for anyone to take her in, and she couldn't stay at her parents' home forever. She had to support herself, so this request was not unreasonable at all!
This is something the Zhao family owes her; they not only divorced her but also ruined her reputation!
This put the Zhao family in a dilemma. Their current good life was all thanks to this small business. If they gave it to them, how would they survive? If they didn't, Luo would definitely not let it go!
Zhao refused to accept this and made her own demands. She felt that the matter of the eldest son's family was never-ending and demanded that the family be divided, and that the small business be divided equally, not given to Luo!
However, Luo refused to back down. She realized that the Zhao family was already considering her conditions, and that she only needed to add fuel to the fire to make it happen!
The two sides are deadlocked and neither is willing to give up.
Finally, Luo said, "Why don't we just go and get an even better one?"
