The maids and servants under Madam Cheng tried their best, but they couldn't drag Cheng Zhizhi away.
I don't know where this woman got such strength, she's clinging to the pillar like a spoiled brat and refusing to let go.
"Young Master Cheng, you can't just stand by and watch..."
"Shut up! Are all the people outside dead?! Drag this crazy woman away right now!"
Before Cheng Zhizhi could finish speaking, she was interrupted sharply by Madam Cheng.
As soon as she finished speaking, several servants from the Cheng family entered. They pried Cheng Zhizhi's hands off the pillar and dragged her out.
Even though Cheng Zhizhi was very strong, she was no match for a man.
Madam Cheng's expression softened slightly. "I'm sorry everyone had to see this. My niece was so ignorant and caused such a scene. Alright, now that the ceremony is complete, a light meal and some fine wine have been prepared in the living room. Please move over there."
Madam Cheng's words left those present with mixed feelings of belief and skepticism.
However, no one was tactless enough to ask further, and they were invited to go for drinks.
After everyone had left, Master Cheng glared at Madam Cheng with displeasure, his eyes practically spitting fire.
"Look at what this is like today! Disgraceful! Disgraceful!"
Madam Cheng knew she had made a mistake and was already cursing the two concubines to death in her heart. However, she dared not argue with Master Cheng.
He could only bow his head and apologize, saying, "Master, please calm down. I will handle this matter properly."
Master Cheng then fell silent, flicked his sleeves, and left.
Ultimately, it's because this son is a disappointment; he's caused a lot of trouble since he was a child!
As soon as Cheng Fang and Li Fangfang entered the bridal chamber, Li Fangfang couldn't wait and took off her bridal veil without a second thought.
She looked furious; it was already a miracle that they hadn't completely broken off relations in front of so many people.
At this moment, she wasn't going to give Cheng Fang any face.
Li Fangfang trembled with anger and demanded, "Young Master Cheng! What happened in the front hall just now? Who was that woman? And what about the child?!"
Cheng Fang naturally didn't want to make a big fuss, after all, his marriage with Li Fangfang involved financial interests.
So he sarcastically remarked, "What woman and child? That's my cousin, she has nothing to do with me!"
Li Fangfang wasn't easily fooled. She sneered, "Cousin? Could it be that you're cousins who share a bed?"
Cheng Fang was embarrassed by having her secret exposed and was somewhat displeased. "What nonsense are you talking about! How can a young lady like you speak so rudely! You wait here, I'll be back later."
After saying that, Cheng Fang slammed the door shut and left.
On her wedding day, she was given the cold shoulder; Li Fangfang had never been treated like this before. She made a scene, insisting on returning to the Li residence, but was stopped by the old woman she had brought with her.
That old woman used to follow Gao Yinzhi, so she has some skills and knowledge.
Her mistress asked her to come along so that she could stay by her young mistress's side, offer advice, and ensure that her young mistress wouldn't be mistreated.
Zhang's mother stopped Li Fangfang and advised, "Miss, today is a joyous occasion. Now that you've married into the Cheng family, what would it look like if you went back now and people saw you like this?"
Li Fangfang was so angry that she didn't care about anything else. She sobbed, "I'm going back. I'm not going to go through with this marriage. I don't agree to it!"
Cheng Fang looked like a normal person, but it turned out that he had already stuffed his house with concubines.
Mrs. Zhang continued to persuade, "The betrothal has already been made, so there's no reason to go back on it. Besides, nothing is finalized yet, so don't slander your son-in-law."
Although Zhang's mother knew in her heart that the matter was pretty much as she had guessed.
But it is precisely at times like these that we must remain calm.
"Now we need to see the Cheng family's attitude, Madam Cheng's attitude."
Li Fangfang looked at Zhang's mother with teary eyes, feeling very wronged. "Mom, what should I do? Was Young Master Cheng angry with me just now?"
After realizing what had happened, Li Fangfang regretted her impulsive actions.
Zhang's mother sighed silently to herself: Now they know they regret it, why didn't they do this sooner?
Seeing how troublesome her master was, Zhang's mother patiently said, "Let's wait and see, there will be results later."
In the evening, all the guests at the Cheng residence had left.
Meanwhile, the attic where Cheng Zhizhi and Cheng Taotao lived was brightly lit, with a group of servants surrounding it.
In the courtyard of the attic, only the heart-wrenching wails of two women could be heard.
"Please, madam, let me go."
"Give me back my child. I want to be with my child."
Cheng Taotao and Cheng Zhizhi knelt on the ground, looking quite disheveled.
When Cheng Fang arrived, the two women knelt down in front of him, pleading, "Young Master Cheng, please, please do us justice!"
“I was confused today, but I was also anxious. Tianrui is still sick, how can he leave his mother…”
"Slap!" Before Cheng Zhizhi could finish speaking, she was slapped by the old woman next to Madam Cheng.
The old woman warned expressionlessly, "Miss Cheng, how many times have I told you, you are not the young master's mother."
Cheng Zhizhi was speechless. This was the old lady's intention.
They were concubines, and even their own children couldn't call them "mother."
Cheng Taotao pleaded with Cheng Fang, "Young Master Cheng, my sister is indeed very protective of her son. Everyone in the manor is busy today, who will help us call a doctor?"
"The child's illness came on suddenly and cannot be delayed. Young Master Cheng, for our sake, please let the old lady keep the child with us."
Cheng Fang was so flustered by the tearful complaints of his two concubines that he lost his composure.
Since today's events haven't caused too much trouble, it's best to forgive them.
