Chapter 301 The Zeng Family is in Chaos
Madam Zeng Dashao closed her eyes, her heart filled with desolation and despair.
If she didn't already have a son, if her parents' family didn't absolutely allow it, she really wanted to divorce.
I've had enough.
Mrs. Zeng agreed with her son and tearfully complained, "Master, how can you not understand something that even Mingguan can understand? Humph, I knew those people were cunning and treacherous. They knew you were kind, so they went to you first, using sweet words and flattery to coax you. They only blame Mingzhu, but never consider how she would have ended up like this if they hadn't harmed her first. It's all their fault!"
"Mingzhu was raised by the master. How is she doing? Doesn't the master know?"
Zeng Mingzhu wiped her tears with a handkerchief, choking with sobs.
She really felt that she was too wronged!
Feeling both wronged and jealous.
Zeng Xiaoyan, Zeng Xiaoyan
She definitely couldn't keep the baby in her belly. She definitely couldn't keep it.
Mr. Zeng was exhausted and desperate.
He had given up all hope for his wife and daughter. He hadn't expected that his eldest son, who had always been steady and intelligent, and had some skills in socializing and dealing in the business world, would be so clueless when it came to his daughter's affairs.
What can he do?
"Mingzhu, pack up and move to the farm outside the eastern suburbs tomorrow. From now on, you are not allowed to leave the farm without my permission."
"What!"
"No! I'm not going!"
Mrs. Zeng and Zeng Mingzhu couldn't believe it.
Mrs. Zeng hugged her daughter tightly, "Master, are you crazy?"
Master Zeng ignored the mother and daughter's shock and collapse, and said coldly, "Ms. Fang, do you still remember that I'm the master? I thought that in this family, nothing I said counted. I meant what I said just now. If I find out that you've secretly condoned Mingzhu's actions, don't blame me for being rude. I'll have no choice but to send her away, to a nunnery in a distant place that none of you know about."
"I'm not kidding you guys."
Zeng Mingzhu's heart was broken: "Dad, you treat me like this because of that bitch Zeng Xiaoyan? Just because I asked someone to push her, you are so angry? In your heart, she is your daughter, right!"
Mr. Zeng smiled sadly. He felt that he was not worthy at all and that he was a complete failure as a father.
Otherwise, how could his daughter, whom he had spoiled since childhood and had high hopes for, say such words?
He didn't even bother to explain.
"The butler will take you there tomorrow morning."
"father!"
"Come here, send the young lady back to rest."
When the maids and servants saw that the master was really angry, who would dare to pretend to be deaf and dumb?
The two maids who were caught by Mr. Zeng's gaze hurried forward and forcibly dragged Zeng Mingzhu out without saying a word.
Zeng Mingzhu's shrill and unwilling cries became increasingly distant.
Mrs. Zeng said resentfully, "Master, you have a cruel heart."
Master Zeng said coldly, "From today on, Steward Wen, Madam has worked hard for half her life. From now on, you can enjoy your old age."
Mrs. Zeng screamed, "Master!"
Madam Wen of Zeng Dashao also looked up in astonishment. Ah, this—
Facing her mother-in-law's resentful glare and her husband's slightly frowned expression of dissatisfaction, she stood up obediently, lowered her eyes and refused: "Dad, your daughter-in-law is young and inexperienced. I'm afraid I can't manage well. I have to ask you to work hard for a few more years and we can talk about it later."
"There are housekeepers and stewards in the mansion. Besides, there are rules for everything. You can just take care of it."
"But--"
"If anyone disagrees, tell me and I'll make the decision."
Mrs. Zeng was in a dilemma and had no choice but to agree reluctantly.
She was really reluctant.
There was no way her mother-in-law would let her go. As a daughter-in-law, was she going to her father-in-law every few days to make decisions? That would be a disaster.
Master Zeng: "Madame Zhu and Cuixiang have tied them up and sold them for me. Tell the pawnbroker to sell them far away."
Nanny Zhu and Cuixiang, still kneeling on the ground, were horrified and cried out for mercy, but Master Zeng ignored them. Madam Zeng was filled with anger at the moment. For herself and her daughter, how could she possibly care about two servants? And there was no way she would plead with Master Zeng on their behalf.
Nanny Zhu and Cuixiang were quickly dragged away.
All the servants of Zeng's family watched helplessly, wondering how unworthy it was to work for the Madam and the eldest daughter.
The next morning, Zeng Mingzhu was forcibly sent away. She made a fuss, but she wasn't even allowed to see her mother. Mr. Zeng simply placed Mrs. Zeng under house arrest, forbidding her to leave the compound under the pretext of worshipping Buddha.
Mrs. Zeng was furious, but the servants had just witnessed her cold-bloodedness and ruthlessness. Who would dare to disobey the master's orders?
Madam Zeng breathed a sigh of relief, hoping her father-in-law would keep her mother-in-law under house arrest for a while longer, so that she could take over and sort out all the affairs of the inner courtyard in a real sense.
Otherwise, once her mother-in-law makes trouble, she won't be able to do anything.
Young Master Zeng personally escorted Zeng Mingzhu to the farm outside the city. He was so distressed that he kept comforting her along the way, stuffing her with lots of silver and repeatedly telling her to just relax at the farm. He said he would definitely come and take her home after a few days when her father's anger had subsided.
Zeng Mingzhu was furious.
Her father even replaced all the servants who served her. He was so heartless that it didn't seem like he would calm down easily.
Zeng Mingzhu was not used to anything on the farm and was miserable. She was not even allowed to leave the small courtyard where she lived.
She couldn't bear it any longer and threw a tantrum, forcing Zhuangzi to prepare a car to take her home.
Unexpectedly, Mr. Zeng was determined to teach her a lesson this time. He didn't even let her enter the house and forcibly sent her back to the farm.
Zeng Mingzhu held a grudge and in a fit of rage, she packed up the package of silver, quietly left the farm when no one was paying attention, hired a car to leave Qingshan County, and no one knew where she went.
When the news reached the Zeng family, Mrs. Zeng fainted on the spot, complaining bitterly about her husband's heartlessness and taking the opportunity to curse her daughter-in-law.
Young Master Zeng did not dare to blame his father, and in desperation he took his anger out on his wife, blaming her for only caring about controlling the power of the household and not taking care of his sister. Young Master Zeng's wife was irritated by this and felt unwell that night. She was also scolded by her mother-in-law for being pretentious and deliberately causing trouble.
She was angry and ashamed, so she didn't call a doctor.
While the Zeng family was frantically searching for Zeng Mingzhu, Mrs. Zeng, the eldest son's wife, was so sad and depressed that she miscarried her baby, who was more than a month old.
She was so disheartened that she handed over the housekeeping power and just focused on raising her son, not caring about anything else.
Mr. Zeng was extremely sad and sighed about the misfortune of his family.
Liang Mingliang went to the city to deliver goods every day, and he would inevitably hear gossip about the Zeng family. He felt relieved when he heard that the Zeng family was in a mess. He made a special effort to find out more about it, and went back to tell everyone about it, and they were all happy.
It's retribution.
Everyone sighed.
Soon, it was the day for Liang Cui'er to get married.
Uncle Liang and Zhang were already very unhappy with this marriage, so of course they would not handle it properly.
