Chapter 150 Stepping on the Fish in the Crowd to Gain Favor (1/2)



Zhong Yufeng instinctively felt it was impossible.

What woman would have the energy to cause all this trouble after giving birth prematurely?

If such a thing hadn't happened, how could a perfectly good scholar's wife have ended up in a divorce?

It should be noted that Qi Mingyu is not only a Xiucai (a successful candidate in the county-level imperial examinations), but also very likely to become a Juren (a successful candidate in the provincial-level imperial examinations) in a year or two.

Why is she giving up the chance to become the wife of a scholar who is almost within her grasp?

Zhong Yufeng, who was thinking this way, was still too young.

In addition, her father had no concubines, and the second wife's social circle was simple, so she didn't do a good job of grooming herself and her appearance was somewhat exposed.

During this time, Qi Mingyu lived a life of ease and comfort at the Zhong family's guest house, where everything was done for him.

He only needs to read books every day, and he doesn't have to worry about anything else.

For him, this life was even more comfortable than when he married Chi Yu.

Aside from the fact that the Zhong family won't give him any money!

Perhaps his life at the Zhong family was too comfortable, and coupled with Zhong Yufeng's affection for him, it also aroused his interest.

He is still young and has a bright future. Since his family can't help him, he still wants to remarry.

It's true that Chi Yu brings good fortune to his family and him, but judging from his current attitude, it seems difficult for him to rekindle their relationship.

Rather than worrying about money, it's better to marry a girl from the Zhong family.

What Chi Yu can give him, the Zhong family can also do.

What's more, the Zhong family is even wealthier and can provide him with a wider network of connections.

At worst, he could wait until his wife passed the imperial examination and, after a year or two, the Zhong family girl gave birth to an heir, and then he could find a way to bring Lady Chi into the family.

In this way, the Zhong family woman provided him with money and connections, while the Chi family used them to boost his future.

By then, he will have already passed the provincial examination or the imperial examination. For the sake of the child, Madam Chi will agree, right?

He needs to think carefully about what to do about the fact that he must remarry at the age of twenty.

Otherwise, the Chi family will go on to bring prosperity to others, while their children will call others "father."

This is not what he wanted to see!

Qi Mingyu, who had such plans in mind, noticed Zhong Yufeng's suspicions and continued to smile bitterly, leaving no room for smearing the innocent.

"Ever since Chi married into my Qi family, for some reason, she has always disliked my sister-in-law."

I told her that my sister-in-law is my mother's niece, and my older brother has done a lot for me since I was a child.

Even if your sister-in-law has some problems, ask her to stop targeting her for the sake of your older brother and mother.

However, she does everything perfectly well in front of me, but as soon as I'm not home, she starts targeting me.

She talked about my relationship with my sister-in-law, but I don't know what she's planning to do with me.

I was able to study and pass the imperial examinations thanks to my elder brother.

If I were to actually have an affair with my sister-in-law, wouldn't I become an ungrateful and treacherous beast?

Unfortunately, no matter how I explained it to her, it was to no avail.

A few days before the divorce, she gave birth prematurely and her home was burglarized.

Aside from my belongings from the county school, not a single tile was left on the roof of my house.

When Zhong Yufeng heard this, she felt that something was strange, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it.

However, the reason for Chi Yu's divorce can be summarized as follows: she suspected Qi Mingyu of having an affair with his sister-in-law, and her house was completely robbed.

This puzzled her.

In her opinion, Qi Mingyu wasn't stupid; how could he possibly have an affair with his sister-in-law for no reason?

As he himself said, if he really did that, wouldn't he become a beast who disregards human ethics?

So, does this mean that Chi wanted a divorce because the Qi family had nothing and she couldn't bear the hardship?
