Aunt Chen is back from the world of cultivation

Censor Yuan frowned and said:

"Are you willing to suffer so much for Sun Herong? Your grandmother tried every means to find a good husband for you. She wanted you to live a good life, not to be bullied by others!"

Old Madam Yuan nodded beside her:

"Mo Niang, your grandfather is right! Grandmother didn't want you to get married and live this kind of life!"

Mo Niang looked at the two of them, confused, and couldn't help but murmured "but", then stopped talking.

Censor Yuan sighed inwardly, his granddaughter's temper, coupled with a wicked mother-in-law, was truly a headache.

They can protect her for a while, but they cannot protect her forever in this family.

In the end, she has to rely on herself to stand on her own feet, but it's hard to change one's nature, so this is not an easy thing to do.

"But what? If you have any concerns, just tell us. There are no outsiders here."

He tried to soften his tone.

Mo Niang hesitated for a long time before whispering:

"My grandmother said that as a wife, you have to put yourself in your husband's shoes and make sacrifices for him, so that he can become my support in the future like my grandfather did."

"My husband is away for the imperial examination, so it is only natural for me to take good care of his only mother. So I thought that maybe sooner or later I could move my mother-in-law with my sincerity and make her accept me sincerely."

She actually knew very well that her mother-in-law seemed to hate her from the very beginning.

When Old Lady Yuan heard this, she was filled with regret, thinking that she had taught Mo Niang bad things, and she quickly took her hand and said,

"Mo Niang, listen to your grandmother. Not everyone deserves your sincere treatment!"

"Sun Herong's mother, Cao, had such great ill will towards you from the beginning and didn't even consider you as a family member. You don't have to compromise and try to please her. You must fight back fiercely against the ill will of others, so that they won't dare to have bad intentions towards you next time!"

Mo Niang's face was full of confusion and fear. For her, it was too difficult to do this.

"But...but what if my husband blames me for this?"

Old Madam Yuan was also a little troubled.

Mo Niang and Sun Herong have a good relationship.

But can these men really tolerate their wives being disrespectful to their mothers?

Only her old man, who was drugged and forced to have a concubine by the old lady at home, was so angry that he sent the concubine back to his hometown.

Over the years, she has heard a lot about the affairs of the imperial family, and almost no one could be so disobedient to their parents.

"This matter can only be handled with wits, and we really need to think about it carefully..."

Old Madam Yuan began to think hard.

Censor Yuan interrupted her:

"Don't think about it. Mo Niang, tell Grandfather the truth. Is this kind of life of compromise and humiliation really what you want?"

"Don't lie or act tough in front of Grandpa. No matter what you want to do, Grandpa will support you! If you have any difficulties, Grandpa will do his best to solve them for you."

From what Mo Niang said, she was willing to endure everything just for the sake of having someone to rely on.

But Sun Herong's mother obviously harbored ill will towards Mo Niang. Mo Niang had no intention of resisting and tolerated, yielded and submitted, but what she got in return was even more severe torture.

This means that there is no solution to this problem.

Sun Herong was raised by a widowed mother. Even if he stood on Mo Niang's side once or twice, as time went on, the widowed mother would get used to playing the victim and pretending to be pitiful, while Mo Niang was relatively dull and timid. There was no doubt which side Sun Herong's heart would lean towards.

Moreover, even if they wanted to use external force to forcibly send the widowed mother away.

The widowed mother had only one son, Sun Herong, and this was untenable from the perspective of ethics, law, and morality.

Now, he and his wife have taken the elixir given by the temple master, so they probably don’t have to worry about dying from a sudden illness in the short term.

As long as Mo Niang is willing, he will have enough time to arrange another home for her.

This time, Censor Yuan's gaze was more gentle than ever before, implicitly containing encouragement and guidance.

Under such gazes, Mo Niang inexplicably felt a lot of courage in her heart.

After a long silence, Mo Niang finally spoke out her true thoughts bravely:

"No...Grandfather, no!"

Tears welled up in Mo Niang's eyes again, and she said sadly,

"If women didn't have to get married, I really want to stay with my grandmother for the rest of my life. Even if I end up alone and helpless, I don't care at all. If I can't live, then I won't live!"

As she said this, she could no longer hold back and cried as she threw herself into Old Madam Yuan’s arms:

"Grandma... it's terrible to cater to a stranger who hates me. It's also terrible to be insulted and cursed. Thinking about having to keep trying to please her like this in the future, I'm really desperate and scared!"

"I don't want a husband to rely on, I just want to stay with you! Please take me back... I want to go home so much... wuwuwu..."

At the end of the story, Mo Niang burst into tears.

Old Madam Yuan was struck by lightning.

My granddaughter has said before that she is afraid to get along with strangers and doesn't want to get married.

She was self-righteous and thought that with a gentle, handsome and talented husband, Mo Niang would gradually adapt to her new life, and have children and a husband in the future. Even if the old couple died, she would not be afraid of being alone and helpless.

But I never expected that Mo Niang was really filled with intense fear about this matter.

Behind the seemingly harmonious relationship with Sun Herong, she was actually enduring and supporting herself.

"I'm sorry...I'm sorry, Mo Niang...it was my grandmother who thought she was the one who harmed you!"

Old Madam Yuan was also in tears.

Seeing the two of them crying together, Censor Yuan was a little worried that his wife's grief would be bad for her health, so he took a handkerchief to wipe Old Madam Yuan's tears and said softly:

"Okay, stop crying. There's nothing that can't be solved with me here."

The grandfather and grandson sobbed and looked at Censor Yuan with tearful eyes.

"Since Mo Niang doesn't like it here, let's go back to the Censorate's Mansion. We can feel better and recover better. When Sun Herong comes back, we can ask him to sign a divorce document."

Or maybe if he had already gone to the capital by then, he could go directly to the capital to sign the divorce documents.

"But...will this affect my grandfather's reputation as an official? They might say we are bullying others by taking advantage of our power."

Mo Niang said with some concern.

She told the truth on impulse, but if she really wanted to leave the Sun family, she would not be able to do so according to etiquette and law.

She couldn't help but think about the trouble this would cause her grandfather.

Censor Yuan said calmly:

"Now I have become indifferent to these things. Reputation is false, and your safety and happiness are the most important. Moreover, with my ability, can I allow the other party to slander me?"

Moreover, if he wants to make a comeback, a blemish on his reputation is not a bad thing for his majesty.

"Leave everything to me. Let's go home and let the servants pack up your things."

Hearing her grandfather's confident and resolute words, Mo Niang felt a little more at ease.

My grandfather once served as Prime Minister and fought wits and courage with so many treacherous ministers and villains along the way. He should be able to resolve this matter.

*

When Mo Niang was wrapped tightly and taken out of the yard, she happened to meet Sun Herong's mother Cao who had come back from buying fish.

"Hey, Grandpa and Madam, what are you going to do?"

She came forward with a nonchalant smile.

Old Madam Yuan looked at her coldly and said angrily:

"Why do you dare to ask? You are a vicious woman with a kind face but a dark heart. You tortured my granddaughter to the point of miscarriage. My family is going to divorce your son!"

Cao was suddenly shocked.

She didn't think she had done anything excessive to her daughter-in-law.

Every daughter-in-law has not gone through this.

It just so happened that this daughter-in-law was so lucky. Not only was she born into an official family with a noble status and the support of her grandfather who was a high-ranking official, she was also born with a beautiful face that bewitched the man. He would spend all day in the study with her reciting poems, painting, and playing chess, and took good care of her.

She had worked so hard to raise her son, who was tall, talented and handsome, but her son had never been so considerate to her. Yet, he took advantage of her by a woman he had just married. Naturally, she hated this little bitch in her heart.

What’s even more infuriating is that the little bitch got pregnant just over a month after she entered the house. She really got all the good things.

After much thought, I decided that I couldn't do anything to spoil my son's fun and annoy him.

So she waited until her son went to the capital to take the exam before she started to make trouble.

I thought to myself that since ancient times, mothers-in-law have asked their daughters-in-law to set rules and teach them, and no one could find fault with them.

The daughter-in-law is a very easy-going person. It is said that her grandfather is also an honest official with a very good reputation, so she must abide by the etiquette and laws.

I heard that these young ladies are very fragile when they are pregnant. If they have a miscarriage and are not well taken care of during the confinement period, they will definitely have difficulty in having children in the future.

By then, wouldn't she be able to use this as a legitimate reason to control her?

Who could have thought that everything went smoothly as she expected, but at the last step, an accident happened.

The grandfather, a high-ranking official who was said to be extremely upright, actually wanted his daughter-in-law to divorce her son because of this!

If they really get divorced, how can she explain it to her son!
