Even their biological father was a gambling addict who would beat and scold the mother and her two children whenever he was unhappy.
Li Zhiyuan chuckled and patted her head gently, saying, "Alright, alright. Don't worry, as long as I, Li Zhiyuan, am here, I won't let anyone bully you."
Li Jiaojiao nodded, sobbing.
At this moment, Zhang Shuiniang walked in with a cold face.
He glanced at the three of them, then opened the wardrobe without a word and took out the clothes one by one.
"Water Maiden... what are you doing?" Li Zhiyuan was stunned.
Zhang Shuiniang gave him a cold look: "I know everything. You actually went to see the Ye family."
"What did you say when you proposed? You said you would never have anything to do with the Ye family again, and that I was the only one in your heart and mind. Now you've broken your vow... What do you take me, Zhang Shuiniang, for?"
She then gave a cold laugh: "Back then, if it weren't for Jiaojiao and Zimo liking you and constantly persuading me, I wouldn't have married you."

Li Zhiyuan coaxed Zhang Shuiniang for a full half hour, making her kneel and swear a solemn oath before she finally smiled.
Li Zhiyuan breathed a long sigh of relief. Shui Niang's temper was really difficult to deal with, but he just couldn't help loving her.
Actually, Zhang Shuiniang wasn't angry at all.
But Li Zhiyuan had sworn to her that he would never see Ye again.
But the matter in Qinghe Village had become common knowledge, and she couldn't pretend to be deaf and dumb.
Of course, she also knew that Li Zhiyuan was not looking for a reunion with Ye Shi, but rather to settle accounts.
But if she doesn't argue with Li Zhiyuan, wouldn't it seem like she has no temper?
Her pride wouldn't allow her to give up so easily, so she deliberately threw a tantrum and caused a little scene.
