Chapter 160 Which woman doesn't give birth to a child?
"Father, Qinzhu is your biological daughter?" Zhou Yuqi couldn't help but come out to question.
But he managed to avoid Ye Lanxin and Zhou Qinzhu and went to find Zhou Zhili alone.
He couldn't explain clearly what his feelings were towards Ye Lanxin and her daughter now. After all, they had lived together for so many years and he couldn't let go.
Moreover, he has doted on Zhou Qinzhu for so many years. Since she is also his half-sister, it is not a waste of affection.
"Are you trying to piss me off to death?" Zhou Zhili asked back.
After that day, he had given Zhou Yuqi a lot of face and did not kick him out directly.
Zhou Yuqi seemed to be ungrateful and kept walking into his trap.
"Father, do you dare not admit it? Don't you remember what happened back then?"
Zhou Zhili finally couldn't help it and slapped him.
Zhou Yuqi turned his head in response to the force, but was not scared away by the pain.
He turned around and continued, "Father has finished beating me. He should have calmed down now, right? Can we tell you now whether Qinzhu is your biological daughter?"
"Can you please stop asking? Is this important?" Zhou Zhili covered his chest with his hands, really getting mad at this unfilial son.
Zhou Yuqi said, "Why not? After all, this matter is related to how much you wronged my mother back then. Now I understand a little bit more clearly how much injustice my mother suffered. She was so disheartened that she abandoned both her in-laws and her own family, abandoning her three biological sons and leaving resolutely..."
Zhou Zhili really wanted to slap him again, but found that it seemed unnecessary.
There was no fear in Zhou Yuqi's eyes.
This son is out of his control.
"If you say so, then so be it."
Zhou Yuqi actually already knew the answer, but when he heard his father admit it himself, he felt even more sad.
"No wonder, no wonder, you really are not a man."
After saying this, he walked out with a sneer.
He was worried that Zhou Yuxiu, who was waiting at the door, would bump into him, and when he saw his expression, he became even more nervous.
"Third brother, what's wrong with you?"
"Nothing, I just want to know why Mother never thought of coming back to see us all these years. And now my younger sister is also wondering why she won't let us kneel down to worship Mother's spirit tablet. We are not worthy..."
Zhou Yuxiu frowned, and seeing Zhou Zhili's serious expression, he knew that their conversation must be unhappy.
He said, "Third brother, you are being rude. Father is still here..."
"So what? Wasn't he the one who wronged Mother? Wasn't he there when Mother was about to leave? But what did she do? All these years, when Grandma repeatedly snatched the three of us away from Mother, wasn't he there? After Mother left, when Grandma repeatedly slandered her, wasn't he there? But what did he do?"
After Zhou Yuqi finished speaking, he looked at Zhou Yuxiu's frightened face and found it even more ridiculous.
As expected, the older people get, the more they worry about.
"You are the prince, and the future of the Marquisate is related to you. It will be of no benefit to you to act like me. I understand that I look down on you."
After Zhou Yuqi finished speaking, he walked past him and went out.
Zhou Yuxiu originally wanted to chase after him, but was stopped by Zhou Zhili.
"Tell him to get out, and never come back again if he has the guts."
Zhou Yuqi walked out without even looking back.
Zhou Qinzhu didn't know where he got the information from, so he quickly said something and chased after him.
The people behind wanted to catch up, but it was too late.
"Let them go. My third brother has always listened to my younger sister." Zhou Yuxiu said, and he felt a little more at ease.
Because of the rumors, the relationship between the Zhou family members has become a little awkward.
Just because Ye Lanxin didn't mention it doesn't mean it didn't happen.
After Zhou Qinzhu came back, she seemed to be avoiding contact with them and never took the initiative to get close to them.
This time, my third brother ran away in anger, which might be an opportunity.
Everyone in the Zhou family thought that after Zhou Qinzhu caught up with him this time, Zhou Yuqi would stop being so stubborn.
"You must have heard a lot during the time I wasn't home. Back then, your father and I were indeed the ones who wronged your sister. I've emphasized this fact all these years and never denied it. So, it doesn't matter what you think of me. After all, I don't have a son in my life, so you don't have to worry about me fighting for anything. If you don't want to call me mother anymore, I can understand. After all, every time your sister gave birth to you, she walked through the gates of hell."
Ye Lanxin sat there and spoke with a very frank expression.
These words deeply affected Zhou Yuxiu and Zhou Yuzhi. Zhou Yuxiu said bluntly, "Mother, what are you saying? No matter what, we will always remember your sacrifice for us. What woman doesn't give birth to children? If she hadn't given birth to us, how could she be qualified to be a marquis? She just doesn't know her place. Isn't it normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines? She has to fight over such messy things. Besides, father is not a cold-hearted man. He has feelings for you. Hasn't he never had another woman in all these years?"
Zhou Yuzhi also said, "That's right. She was the one who insisted on leaving. Even if we didn't understand much at the time, we knew that everyone will prosper and everyone will suffer. But she didn't consider it. She only cared about her own happiness and didn't think about how we would live after she left."
Ye Lanxin thought, fortunately, these two sons were brainwashed thoroughly enough. The old lady had been slandering Ye Hesheng all these years, and fortunately she did not get involved.
Zhou Zhili looked at the atmosphere between them and felt a lot more relaxed.
But when he thought of Zhou Yuqi, he felt uncomfortable.
Now that his son is able to question him about what happened in the past, what will be his attitude towards Ye Lanxin?
"My Lord, I've been thinking a lot these days. There's no need to explain what happened back then. It's already happened. I believe that time reveals a person's true character."
Ye Lanxin said this to Zhou Zhili, and Zhou Zhili also felt that it was true.
He knew very well how Ye Lanxin had treated him over the years.
Since marrying him, Ye Lanxin has taken the initiative to use contraception. She has been pregnant before, but she was worried that the three brothers of the Zhou family would feel uncomfortable, so she had an abortion. She said that she would never have another child in her life and would not cause any psychological burden to her three sons.
"Ma'am, I understand..."
The deep affection in his eyes made Zhou Yuxiu and Zhou Yuzhi feel that their presence here was unnecessary.
Not long after, a servant came running in, shouting, "My Lord, my Lord, this is terrible! Our Third Young Master has fallen from the building!"
