Chapter 15 The Game Begins 8
"It's the wife you married! She wants to starve me to death! No one has brought me food since this morning. Then someone came and told us to send someone out to buy food ourselves, and said that we will be responsible for all the expenses of your sister and me from now on.
I raised you up and made you a successful person. But you married a wife who treated me like this. Brother Tu, I will not live any longer!
The more Zhou spoke, the more she felt wronged. She had finally raised her son to be successful, but in the end, he had to endure the bullying of his daughter-in-law. For a moment, she burst into tears.
"Then what do you want me to do, mother?"
According to Sun Tu's previous behavior, he would have rushed to find Zhao Lingmeng to settle the score and then teach her a lesson. But now, let alone teaching her a lesson, if she could calm him down by teaching him a lesson, he would be secretly happy.
"Brother, you should go teach that woman Zhao Lingmeng a lesson. How dare she treat mother and me like this."
Before Zhou could say anything, Sun Yue next to her couldn't wait to speak.
Sun Yue was also quite panicked. What if Zhao Lingmeng really didn't care about them? What would she do? Wouldn't her beautiful clothes and jewelry be gone? Wouldn't the money she usually took out from the accountant be gone too?
Moreover, Sun Yue also hoped that her sister-in-law could find a good husband for her! So she couldn't let Zhao Lingmeng escape from their control.
Sun Tu was also stunned by his sister's ignorance of the current situation. It turned out that they didn't listen to anything he said yesterday! Sun Tu could only rub his forehead with a headache, thinking about how to appease his mother and sister and not let him down.
Zhou and Sun Yue saw Sun Tu remained silent for a long time. In their minds, this meant that their son/brother had been seduced by that woman, Zhao Lingmeng. They exchanged a glance.
"Brother Tu'er, you don't even help me!" Zhou and Sun Yue blurted out the question at the same time.
Sun Tu was now annoyed with his sister for causing trouble. He turned to Sun Yue and yelled, "Shut up! You're causing trouble all day long. If you keep talking nonsense, I'll send someone to send you back home."
Sun Yue was still afraid of her brother, probably because her fate had been in his hands since she was a child, so when she saw her brother getting angry, she became depressed and only dared to cry alone.
If someone who doesn't know the situation saw this scene, they would definitely think Sun Yue was extremely pitiful.
Sun Tu's outburst frightened Zhou. She immediately hit Sun Tu with her hand and said, "You unfilial son, why are you being so mean to your sister?"
This is not because Zhou loves her daughter so much, but because her son got married, and the only one in the mansion who did not hesitate and united with her was her daughter.
"Mom, was everything I said to you yesterday in vain?" Sun Tu reminded Zhou with a headache.
"Mom, remember what you told me yesterday, asking me not to cause trouble for that woman. But today she is the one causing trouble for me. What do you mean by taking responsibility for everything? Isn't she your wife?" Zhou felt very aggrieved when she talked about this.
"Mom, did you have breakfast today?" Sun Tu was helpless. He thought, since they dared to jeopardize your son's future, it was okay to let you fend for yourself. But Sun Tu didn't know how to explain this to his mother. He could only change the subject.
Sun Tu knew that in his mother's mind, once a woman got married, her only path was to bear children and serve her parents-in-law. That was why she felt so confident in asking Zhao Lingmeng to set the rules and bring our eldest son home to raise.
But my mother didn't know that her idea was only useful for those in her hometown who couldn't go back to their parents' home. There was absolutely no way to help a noble lady like Zhao Lingmeng. She had many options! Did she just care about it?
"Not yet! I sent Guihua out to buy some, but as soon as she stepped out of the door, someone threw rotten eggs and vegetable leaves at her, so she came back. What's going on outside Tuer?" When Zhou heard her son asking about breakfast, she remembered to ask about what happened outside the gate.
Sun Tu walked over and held Zhou's arm, helping her up from the ground: "Hey, Mom, please stop making trouble. Now everyone in the city knows what our family of three has done, and they all call us ungrateful and white-eyed wolves.
I'll ask Jiang Cheng to go buy breakfast for you and your sister, so you can just go back to Zhuyuan and stay there, okay?"
When Zhou heard her son say that, she immediately got furious. "They're talking nonsense. Don't be afraid, Tu'er. I'll go out and talk to them."
Zhou was about to break free from Sun Tu's hand and rush out. However, Sun Tu was quick to grab Zhou and said helplessly, "Mom, what's there to explain?"
"Tu'er, don't be silly. We must never admit to anything we didn't do." Zhou persuaded Sun Tu righteously.
"Mom, do you really want me to say it no? Do you think we have never done it?" After talking for a long time, his mother just wouldn't listen. A mama's boy like Sun Tu was a little angry.
"What do you mean?" Zhou was also frightened by Sun Tu's aura at this moment.
"That's exactly what it means! Mom, things are not as simple as you think. The house we live in is Zhao Lingmeng's dowry, and our daily food, clothing, housing and transportation are all provided by Zhao Lingmeng.
The point is, didn't you torture Zhao Lingmeng? Didn't you take Jing'er to your side? When you brought Wang Xiaoyi up from your hometown, weren't you talking about my childhood sweetheart? Didn't Wang Xiaoyi hit on Zhao Lingmeng when she was pregnant, or did I sleep with someone while she was unconscious? These things are all true, we did them all."
After Sun Tu said this, he was a little bit unbelievable and wondered why he did so many stupid things.
"What's the big deal? When a country girl gets married, the dowry goes to her husband's family! We're from the countryside?"
"Mom, this isn't our country! Zhao Lingmeng isn't without support. My father-in-law can kill our whole family with just one word. Are you sure you still want to argue with me about this?"
The confidence that Zhou had accumulated with great difficulty was interrupted by Sun Tu's attack, and it instantly became like a deflated ball that burst at the slightest poke.
"What should we do now?" Zhou looked at Sun Tu hesitantly, looking for his backbone.
"The most important thing for me now is to coax Zhao Lingmeng to change her mind and ask her to forgive me! Otherwise, our family will be finished. You and your sister should stay in the bamboo courtyard and don't hold me back, okay? If you need anything, ask Guihua to go out and buy it." Sun Tu was really trying hard to comfort his mother.
"But, but, mother and your sister don't have any money!" Zhou looked at her son with a sad face.
