Chapter 409 The Ye Family's Retribution
Zhou Yuzhi's words made Zhou Zhili's eyes clearer. Yes, he still had a biological daughter.
This biological daughter is the glory of their Zhou family...
But thinking about what he had done, Zhou Zhili knew that he had no right to ask Gu Ruanci for forgiveness.
"Forget it..." Although Zhou Zhili had difficulty speaking now, at least he could think for himself.
Zhou Yuzhi looked puzzled: "Father, why?"
Zhou Zhili shook his head. For now, they should stay away from Gu Ruanci. This would be the best blessing for her.
He didn't say anything else. He lowered his head and calmly wrote the divorce letter, stamped it with his own private seal, and asked Zhou Yuzhi to take it to the government office to settle the matter. Then the matter was settled.
This reason for divorce was reasonable and the government had no way to stop it, so the registration was completed immediately.
When the Ye family received Zhou Zhili's divorce letter, no one knew how to deal with it and they did not dare to hand it over to Ye Lanxin.
Now Zhou Qinzhu's death has exhausted them. After all, the body cannot be left there forever. They thought that the Zhou family had raised Zhou Qinzhu and loved her sincerely over the years, so they asked them to help with the funeral. They kept it a secret from Ye Lanxin and did not let her show up, but the Zhou family did not give them any chance at all.
"What should I do... If my sister knew that Qin Zhu was dead and she herself had been divorced by the Zhou family, I'm afraid she wouldn't be able to bear the blow..."
Ye Cheng asked worriedly. Over the years, they have become accustomed to getting everything from their sister.
Now, the sister no longer has the ability to protect them, and she becomes the first one to fall among them.
"What can we do? Should we let Qinzhu rot there?" Ye Keguan had not expressed his opinion for a long time.
The Ye family is also finished.
In fact, when Gu Ruanci said those words to him, he should have realized that the Gu family could not fight against the general trend.
The Emperor knew of Gu Ruanci's hatred for the Zhou and Ye families, but he never criticized them. His previous attempts to kill someone with someone else's knife had all ended in nothing. This was simply the general trend of events. Both the Zhou and Ye families had been abandoned by the general trend...
Who made them rot from the root?
Although Pan felt distressed, she did not object.
She knew that what the master said was right. Even if she didn't have the heart to do so, she couldn't let Zhou Qinzhu rot at home.
"Listen to your father and tell your sister everything. Do you really want to hide the funeral of your only daughter from her?"
Ye Cheng sighed and looked at Ye Chi.
Ye Chi had no choice but to say, "Just listen to father and mother..."
Ye Cheng really had no choice but to turn around and go to the backyard.
Not long after, Ye Lanxin's heart-wrenching cries were heard from the backyard, so miserable that it seemed as if all her family had died.
"Why? It was me who made the mistake, not my daughter. She was so young. She shouldn't have died. It's me who should have died, it's me!"
After hearing this, Pan, who didn't dare to go over, covered her mouth with all her strength and tears rolled down her face silently. She felt sorry for her granddaughter, but what could she do now?
She wiped her tears and said to Qin Kerou and Shang Hongmian, "Since she already knows, you two should go and talk to her. The dead cannot be resurrected, so we should still look forward."
Qin Kerou nodded heavily. She felt embarrassed just now. Now Zhou Qinzhu's funeral was going to be organized by their Ye family?
Fortunately, she is Pan's niece, and before she got married, she had to call Ye Lanxin her cousin. Otherwise, if it were any other mistress, she might not be willing to do so.
However, she knew that it would be redundant to say anything at this time. Not only was the crisis of the Ye family not resolved, but it became even more serious after the separation from the Zhou family.
Ye Lanxin was like a madman. She had persisted for so many years, but everything she had fought for was now gone in an instant.
But Ye Hesheng, the daughter of a defeated general, had the last laugh. How could she not hate him?
She blamed the heavens and the earth, but she didn't blame herself for doing that in the first place.
She felt that everything she had obtained was earned through hard work and was not shameful, and no one had the right to blame her anyway.
She even became distracted and started talking to herself.
"Am I wrong to do this?"
"Of course not. If a man does not work for himself, he will be punished by heaven and earth."
"Then why can't I hide when retribution comes?"
"It's all because the Zhou family is useless and can't protect me... And Xue Chenglun, why didn't he die outside? Why did he come back?"
"Yes, it's all his fault. He left all those years ago, and now he's back and ruined my life..."
"He deserves to die, the Zhou family deserves to die, everyone deserves to die..."
"Ha ha ha ha……"
Seeing his sister's condition becoming more and more crazy, Ye Cheng realized that something was wrong.
“Sister, sister!”
He tried to wake Ye Lanxin up, but to no avail.
Ye Lanxin began to pick up things in the room, some of which she threw on the ground, some of which she stuffed into her mouth, and some of which she handed to Ye Cheng. Finally, when it came to the pillow, she held it tightly in her arms.
"Qinzhu, my child, it's all my fault. I had heavy bleeding during childbirth, and you were in danger. From now on, you are my only child. Don't worry, I will definitely let you live a life of luxury..."
Seeing that Ye Lanxin's condition was obviously not right, Ye Cheng quickly asked his servants to invite Pan and others over.
Pan came in a hurry and saw this scene.
"My son!"
She finally couldn't hold on any longer, vomited blood again and fell asleep.
This was the second time she vomited blood in the past two days. Naturally, everyone was afraid to take it lightly and hurried to find a doctor.
Only then did they remember that they had no relationship with the Zhou family anymore, and their Ye family's status did not allow them to hire an imperial physician.
In the end, Shang Hongmian stepped forward and asked his mother, Princess Jincheng, for help, and then invited the imperial physician over.
However, they did not dare to invite Zhang Songming. After all, he was Zhou Yuzhi's master. They were worried that he would feel burdened and would not explain the condition of the disease. Zang Jizhi would never agree to come. Every time there was something related to the Zhou and Ye families, he would find an excuse to shirk responsibility.
The person who came this time was just an ordinary imperial physician.
He knew the depth of the Ye family's influence, so he was extremely cautious.
Pan's condition is very serious. After all, she is old. Although she was in good health before, she suffered too many blows in a short period of time, and each time was more serious than the last. Her body's ability to withstand stress has a limit, so I'm afraid it's not good.
As for Ye Lanxin, I'm afraid she was over-stimulated and went crazy.
These two pieces of news made the Ye family fall into silence.
Overnight, their Ye family was going to suffer this disaster again?
"What should we do? Father, what should we do?" Ye Cheng couldn't help but asked Ye Keguan.
Ye Keguan was also on the verge of collapse, knowing that the fate of the Ye family could not be changed.
"Retribution, this is all retribution for our Ye family!"
