Chapter 483 Are You Blind?
At the end, his voice choked.
Liao Jiudao said, "Mother, please calm down first."
Madam Zhou refused to admit defeat. She wiped away her tears and angrily said, "How can you expect me to calm down, Liao Jiu? You were so obedient and protective of me when you were little. You never caused Mother any worry or distress. Ever since you met Jiang, you've been possessed. What's so good about Jiang? Tell Mother, what's so good about her that she's bewitched my son?"
Liao Jiu's originally leisurely and indifferent expression suddenly revealed a hint of smile.
"Mother, Jiang saved my son's life."
Madam Zhou was speechless for a moment. "The life-saving grace must be repaid. I'm not saying that you can't repay it. Our family can give money or silver! She can't just rely on the favor and expect to rise to the top overnight! This person is too greedy! She doesn't look like a good person at first glance..."
Liao Jiu interrupted her, "Mother, it was my son who wanted to marry her, not her who schemed against me to marry her. This was an opportunity I finally sought. Jiang saved my life, which is just one of her good qualities. The most important thing is that I like her. Being with her makes me feel peaceful and quiet. I've always had a problem with light sleep, and having her by my side can cure my insomnia. In short, Jiang may be the woman destined for me. Mother, don't look at her country background; that's all deception. I'm attracted to her as a person. If I marry her, I might be able to go further in the future, which is better than marrying a princess!"
The worldly glory and wealth are just an illusion. As far as he knows, there is something far beyond.
He had the good fortune to have seen King Xiang's former divine guards.
He was fascinated by the magical world where Jiang Lianzhu came from. He loved Jiang Lianzhu, so he wanted to know where she came from.
It's not just the temple of Da'an State.
He had already experienced the splendor of the temple, but he had yet to set foot in a place even more magnificent than the temple...
This is his ideal, which he cannot tell anyone.
Even if he told her, Mrs. Zhou wouldn't understand and would just think he was crazy, which would be of no use.
Madam Zhou really didn't understand. "Liao Jiu! How can she compare with a princess when she's just a country woman? Are you blind, or has she drugged you with some kind of magic potion? Let me be frank, Jiang Lianzhu is nothing but a slut!! She had a husband before, and her purity is long gone. You, Liao Jiu, are willing to be so lowly that you insist on marrying a second-hand slut who has lost her virginity. You have no shame, but we still have some dignity!"
Liao Jiu's face turned cold. "Mother, please be careful with your words. I know she's been divorced before. Don't try to provoke me. I want to marry her no matter what she is like. According to what you said, well, I am willing to be lowly and shameless. If you want to save face, then I will sever the mother-son relationship with you to avoid getting you into trouble."
You can scold him, but what he hates most is hearing others scold Jiang Lianzhu.
And the curses were so harsh.
So, he started to speak less politely.
This is his Achilles' heel.
Mrs. Zhou couldn't believe it!
She pointed at Liao Jiu's nose and said, "What did you say? You want to sever the mother-son relationship with me? Say it again?"
Liao Jiu said coldly, "Yes, in order not to implicate you, mother, I am willing to sever ties with you, so that I won't embarrass you and make you unable to hold your head up if I marry Jiang in the future."
Mrs. Zhou suddenly collapsed to the ground, distraught.
The maids and nannies nearby were all startled and quickly helped Madam Zhou up.
He hurriedly advised, "Madam, Madam, how are you?"
"Young Marquis, how can you speak like that? Madam has only one son like you, and yet you are so rebellious for a divorced woman! I'm not being rude, but you're really going too far!"
Mrs. Zhou was wiping her tears on the ground, her hands and feet trembling.
"Wuyang, you...you...are really crazy. You can even say such things. I've worked so hard to raise you..." His voice was trembling.
Liao Jiu did not go to support her, but just stood there coldly.
"Maybe. I don't care about life or death now. I even did something as crazy as disobeying the emperor's order. I have no other wishes in this life except to be with Jiang. If mother doesn't agree, then I might do anything. I have said all the good things. Since mother won't listen, then I will put it here today. I must marry Jiang. If mother feels that my behavior has brought shame to you, then I am willing to bear the infamy and sever the mother-son relationship."
Mrs. Zhou saw that Liao Jiu did not seem to be lying.
After her sadness, loss and shock, she became resentful and stubborn.
She trembled and said, "Okay! Liao Wuyang! If you dare to marry her, I will go to the emperor and report you as a great filial piety. Anyway, I will never agree to you marrying a country woman with bad intentions like her. You talk about true love? She knows your situation very well, but she still forces you to marry her. She clearly has ulterior motives and is deliberately trying to harm you. She has bad intentions!"
Liao Jiu sneered, his patience running out. "Then it's up to you, mother. You can file a complaint, and even if the emperor beheads me, it doesn't matter. I'll just consider it my life as repayment for your kindness in raising me. I'll go to the underworld with Jiang Shi one step earlier. Mother, please take care of yourself."
Mrs. Zhou was furious.
She said that she would go to Xuanhuang to file a complaint, but in reality, it was impossible for her to do so.
She only has this one son.
I finally got out.
She yelled hysterically, "Liao Jiu, are you going to marry her?! Are you determined to marry her?!"
Liao Jiu nodded calmly, "Yes."
Mrs. Zhou's eyes radiated cruelty. "Alright, marry her! If you dare to marry her, I will kill myself at your wedding ceremony. I want all the guests to see how filial you are. I will make you live in guilt for the rest of your life. I will die to show you! You want to marry a wife and not your mother. As long as I am here, I will never let Jiang enter the house! If she enters the house, I will die! "
Liao Jiu sighed deeply, "Mother, why are you doing this? I'm just a tool you gave birth to so you can manipulate my life, right? You're using filial piety to pressure me, forcing me to have my own feelings, right? Just because you gave birth to me, I have to obey you and become a puppet you can control at will, right? Why do you have to go to such lengths?"
This series of questions left Mrs. Zhou stunned for a moment.
It was only a moment.
Mrs. Zhou didn't care. "I gave birth to you, I raised you. You should be filial to me and listen to me. I won't harm you. That country woman has bewitched you. I'm protecting you! Liao Jiu! I'm your mother! If I had harmed you, would you still be alive today?"
