Chapter 1014: Uncle and Sister-in-law's Murder of the Original Wife (6)
Zou Hongxin coughed several times before he said to Yue Shichu in a hollow voice, "Sister-in-law, Hongyi really has let you down. You can divorce him, but there's no need to go to the extent of breaking off a sworn brotherhood..."
Yue Shichu shouted hurriedly: "Stop! Don't call me your sister-in-law. I don't want to have anything to do with your ruthless brother. You can recognize your cheating brother, but I don't want to be married to a man who betrayed me!"
"I called you the wrong name. I'm sorry..." Zou Hongxin coughed lightly. "You have indeed suffered a lot since you married into our family. We can compensate you..."
“补偿？难道我岳家缺你那点补偿吗？我妹妹的名声是钱财能补偿得了的吗？是你们家当初求上门来娶我妹妹，娶了之后却不珍惜，任由她被邹鸿义亏待！你们现在还有脸来跟我提什么补偿？如果不是你们家，我妹妹明明可以嫁一个跟她情投意合的丈夫，生几个乖巧聪明的孩子，而不是像现在这样，因为丈夫跟嫂子偷情的事被人指指点点，还成了寡妇，你们邹家缺了大德！”岳重楼怒气冲冲地朝邹鸿信吼道，双手握得紧紧的，如果不是还有理智在，他是真的想狠狠揍一顿邹鸿信，谁让他有那么一个寡廉鲜耻的弟弟？
Zou Hongxin's face showed an expression of shame, and Earl Yong'an's face was also gloomy, and he could hardly stand. Lord Du was afraid that something might happen to him, so he quickly asked someone to bring a chair for him to sit down.
Yue Chonglou snorted coldly: "Don't think that we will soften our hearts just because you use the self-torture tactic. The sworn brotherhood between our Yue family and your Zou family will never change today."
Earl Yong'an and Zou Hongxin tried to persuade the siblings several times, and Lord Du also tried to smooth things over, but Yue Shichu and Yue Chonglou were determined to break off all ties with the people in Earl Yong'an's mansion, so no matter how they persuaded them, they were only focused on breaking off all ties.
With no other options, Earl Yong'an and Zou Hongxin had to agree. This was because they were now in a weaker position, with Yue Shichu on their side both emotionally and logically. Therefore, even if they didn't want to, they couldn't change Yue Shichu's decision.
So in the end, under the witness of Lord Du, both parties signed a letter of severity, and after it was filed with the Jingzhao Prefecture, Yue Shichu no longer had anything to do with the Zou family.
"Brother, take people to bring all my dowry back home!" Yue Shichu put away the letter of severity and called Yue Chonglou.
"Don't worry, big brother will move all the things belonging to our family away today, and not even a piece of wood will be left for them." Yue Chonglou said, patting his chest.
Having achieved their goal, the brother and sister went to the Yong'an Earl's Mansion to move the dowry, leaving behind the pale-faced Yong'an Earl and his son.
"Fortunately, Zou Hongyi's mother is sick and can't go to the government office, otherwise we would have a hard time getting out of the Zou family's dirty place today. That woman is not a good person and is very good at making a scene. If she were here, she would definitely not allow me to break off relations with their family." Yue Shichu said to Yue Chonglou with a look of relief on his face on the way.
Yue Chonglou's face immediately darkened: "Did that old woman take advantage of her status to torture you? When she asked for you on behalf of her son, she swore that she would treat you as her own daughter. It turns out that she deceived our family."
Yue Shichu nodded: "Maybe she thought that since I married into their family, the matter was settled, so they didn't need to be so polite to me. Now she is sick because of the betrayal of her youngest son and eldest daughter-in-law. It's really retribution."
"Yes, it's retribution. It's a pity that Zou Hongyi died too soon, otherwise I could have beaten him so hard that he would regret being born into this world for daring to treat my sister like this!" Yue Chonglou became angry when he thought of the hypocritical Zou Hongyi.
The brother and sister soon arrived at the Yong'an Earl's Mansion. Because the Yong'an Earl's Mansion was already in decline, and its only hope, Zou Hongyi, was dead, and there was also such a huge scandal, so the Yong'an Earl's Mansion looked even more dilapidated at this time.
Yue Chonglou said with disdain: "Sister, my parents shouldn't have listened to the matchmaker's boasting and thought that the Bo Mansion could really rise again under Zou Hongyi's leadership, so they betrothed you to that hypocrite..."
"Forget it, brother. Every failure makes you a wiser person. After this experience, my parents will never dare to urge me to get married again." Yue Shichu said. Before Zou Hongyi's affair with Murong Liu was exposed, everyone thought he was a gentleman, upright and honest, and a young talent with a bright future.
But who knew he was actually a hypocritical hypocrite? He was so good at disguising himself that it was no wonder that the original owner's parents thought he was a good son-in-law worthy of entrusting their daughter to.
In fact, in the original world's plot, Zou Hongyi disguised himself for his entire life, and finally rose to prominence and became an important official in the court. He was also praised for his noble character. Who could have imagined the dirty things he did in private?
Yue Shichu took Yue Chonglou and unceremoniously moved away all her dowry and personal belongings. Zou's mother, who lived in Fushouyuan, didn't know about this at first, but the noise of the moving was too loud, so she probably heard it and sent someone to check. After checking, she found out that Yue Shichu wanted to break off all ties with the Zou family, and she immediately became furious.
"Call Yue Shichu to me!" Mrs. Bo forced herself to stay awake and shouted angrily at the servants. She thought Yue Shichu was still the daughter-in-law who let her order her around.
Yue Shichu heard the servants tremblingly conveying the order from the lady of the bosom, and he just thought it was funny. He said, "Go back and tell her that I have severed all ties with the Zou family and am no longer her daughter-in-law. From now on, I have nothing to do with her and I will not go to see her. Also, don't think that I have forgotten the things she did to me on purpose. I didn't seek revenge on her because she was sick now. If she dares to cause trouble again, I don't mind seeking revenge on her for both the new and old grudges!"
When the servant heard this, he was so frightened that he dared not say anything anymore. He ran out and reported to the lady of the house.
When Lady Bo heard what the servants brought back, she was so angry that her eyes went dark and she fainted. The servants around her were so scared that they burst into tears. Fortunately, an old nanny who knew some medical skills took her pulse and found out that she had fainted because of anger and was not in danger of life. They were relieved. Otherwise, if something happened to Lady Bo when none of the men in the Zou family were at home, they would have died.
Yue Shichu, Yue Chonglou and a group of people spent more than half an hour moving all the things out of the Zou family.
Such a big commotion naturally attracted the attention of neighbors. When they saw the servants carrying out boxes of things, even furniture such as the step-out beds and the Luohan beds, they were shocked. After asking around, they found out that the Yue family and the Zou family had severed their ties. Naturally, the girl from the Yue family was no longer the daughter-in-law of the Zou family. So didn't they take away all the dowry?
