In front of Zhou's house.
Pei Xiuli stopped in front of the door in a hired carriage.
After paying the silver, she happily walked in with an exquisite gold jewelry box.
As soon as she entered the room, Yang swaggered in front of her, still wearing the eye-catching ruby headpiece.
The mood that was originally filled with joy at receiving a golden hairpin turned into annoyance instantly after seeing the ruby headpiece.
"Oh!" Yang looked at the jewelry box in Pei Xiuli's hand that was specially used to store hairpins, and said in a strange voice, "Sister-in-law is back. Didn't your sister-in-law from your natal family say that she would give you several sets of head ornaments as a dowry? I thought there would be several large jewelry boxes. What happened? She only gave you this hairpin?"
Pei Xiuli felt even more embarrassed and annoyed when she heard this.
She had long ago told that snobbish bitch Yang that she would definitely get a dowry many times larger than hers. But now, let alone a shop or a headdress, she didn't even get a small hairpin.
The hairpin in her hand was given to her by that bitch Su Li's mortal enemy.
If that bitch Su Li hadn't been so stingy and hadn't held on to her eldest brother's property, how could she not even have a coat to wear?
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. She ignored Yang and just glared at her before walking past her and returning to her room.
"snort!"
Yang snorted disdainfully.
She didn't want to pay attention to her. She had already done what her husband asked her to do. She was just a stupid woman from the countryside. If she didn't have such a relationship with Pei Ji and the Duke's Mansion, she would not be willing to say a word to her.
After twisting her waist, she returned to her room.
Go back inside.
Pei Xiuli threw the jewelry box onto the dressing table with a "bang".
"What's going on?"
Zhou Yi had just returned from his mistress's room and was in a very good mood.
Pei Xiuli asked in a bad mood: "I haven't seen you all day, where have you been?"
"Of course I went to the shop. My whole family depends on it for their livelihood. How could I not go and watch over it?"
Zhou Yi was really fed up with this ugly and stupid woman. She couldn't even get a dowry from her sister-in-law. She was really useless.
If he knew that Pei Xiuli not only didn't get the dowry but was also kicked out, he probably wouldn't even bother to talk to her now.
Hearing this, Pei Xiuli became even more angry: "The whole family depends on this shop for their livelihood, the whole family depends on this shop for their livelihood! Zhou Yi, what did you tell me in the beginning? You said that if I followed you, I wouldn't have to worry about food and clothing for the rest of my life, but now! You can't even buy me a headdress!"
If she had known this, she would not have followed him to the capital, but would have stayed at home and waited for her marriage. At least the Lin family only had one son, and all the money they earned in the future would be used to support her and her child.
Now, not only does the Zhou family have to support their entire family with a shop, but she still has to pay the least.
Her mother-in-law, an old, wicked woman, pretended to be rich every day and wanted to eat the best and use the best things. Even the only maid in the mansion could only be used by her.
And there was Zhou Xiang, who was just a small-time official, but he had to bribe people all day long. He didn't get promoted, but he spent a lot of money. He even had the only servant in the mansion, and he was the only one who used him.
She didn't even have a wedding herself, and now she has to rely on charity for even jewelry!
Zhou Yi is such a useless guy, yet he still goes to the shop every day to make money for them!
Zhou Yi was also unhappy and said bluntly: "You don't have to worry about food and clothing. What? Am I wrong? What you eat and wear now, which one is not mine? Are you short of food or clothes? Ah? If you are not happy, go back to your eldest brother!"
This stupid woman, if he had known that her relationship with his brother and sister-in-law was so bad, he would not have gone to the trouble of coaxing her here from afar.
She's completely useless! She's even worse than his divorced wife, who at least didn't make a fuss, and honestly worked every day, taking care of his family.
"You!" Pei Xiuli widened her eyes in disbelief. She never dreamed that the man who had always worshipped her would treat her like this!
She angrily swept the things off the dressing table and pointed at Zhou Yi, cursing, "How dare you treat me like this! Zhou Yi, I want to divorce you! I want to divorce you now!"
"Let's get a divorce! I thought I was afraid of you!"
He had had enough of coaxing her like an ancestor all day long.
His concubine is as beautiful as a flower and is pregnant with his child, but she still wants to coax him. But this stupid woman, who eats and lives at his expense, still wants to coax her.
Now, she didn't get him any benefit at all, but she still wanted him to coax her!
Pooh!
He quits!
"You! Get out! Get out!" Pei Xiuli's eyes were red. She grabbed the pillow beside her and threw it at Zhou's face, cursing, "Liar! Liar! Get out!"
"This is my room. If anyone wants to leave, you should leave! Get out of here!"
"Get out!" Pei Xiuli couldn't stand it any longer and went up to him and hit him.
Zhou Yi was not willing to be outdone and fought back without hesitation.
As the two of them were fighting fiercely, Zhou Xiang came in with a frown on his face and said coldly, "Brother and sister-in-law, what are you doing? Why don't you stop it?"
"Second brother?" Zhou Yi stopped what he was doing when he heard that.
Zhou Xiang is the most promising person in the family and has always had absolute say in the family.
Although Zhou Yi is the eldest brother, he has always obeyed his words. Now that he has spoken, he will naturally obey.
"Brother, I have something to tell you, please follow me..."
Having said that, he left first.
"Let go!" Zhou Yi shook off Pei Xiuli who was still pulling at his clothes, snorted heavily, and then walked out.
