Quick wear: cannon fodder is a bit strong

Madam Sun chimed in:

"Yes, brother-in-law. After all, you are her biological father. It's okay if you didn't teach her well before. But now you have to take care of her no matter what."

Madam Sun really loves her second daughter's face.

Although the swelling on Sun Qingqing's face has barely subsided, her nose bridge is fractured. She went to Tongzhou City to see a doctor that day but the doctor could not cure her.

Now her nose is flat and she is missing the eight front teeth in her mouth.

Don't even mention how ugly it is. Sun Qingqing doesn't say a word all day. When asked, she just nods or shakes her head, or writes and gestures on the ground.

Mrs. Sun, as a mother, saw this and her heart was bleeding.

With Sun Qingqing in this state, even if that thing can be accomplished, will the prince really be interested in her?

"What did the old lady and sister-in-law say?"

Qu Zhongliang folded his arms and sneered:

"Everyone knows what Xiao girl was like in the past, why blame me?"

"As for now, it's wrong for her to disobey discipline, but since she signed the severance agreement, she's no longer considered a member of our Sun family. If you're dissatisfied, whoever wants to be beaten can go ahead. I don't think I have the ability to do that."

What a joke, I thought of him now.

Qu Zhongliang is not stupid. Qu Xiaoxiao is a very cruel girl now. She doesn't recognize her relatives. She is very fierce. Didn't you see how she beat the Sun brothers and Qing girl?

He would probably get beaten if he went there.

Qu Zhongliang saw the situation clearly. Furthermore, the Sun family was already in such a state, with the eldest and second sons seemingly on the verge of death. Only the Third Master Sun and a group of elderly, weak, women, and children remained. The Sun family was counting on him to support them, so why should he remain subservient as before?

As expected, after his outburst, Madam Sun did not jump up and refute him as she would in the past. Instead, she kept quiet.

Old Madam Sun didn't bring it up again.

Qu Zhongliang was brimming with pride—this was the first time since he married into the Sun family that this had happened. He said, "This is a different time."

Things are going to change for the Sun family from now on.

Unfortunately, the Sun family’s foundation is really gone now, so what’s the point of him coming?

Sun Wanru watched from a distance with a cold eye. Seeing Qu Zhongliang suddenly stand up, she couldn't help but feel a little surprised. In fact, in her heart, Qu Zhongliang had always been an obedient dog.

But ever since her reputation was ruined and half of her arm was missing, the dog had its own ideas and would not get close to its owner anymore.

But now, Sun Wanru suddenly realized that the Sun family was no longer what it used to be. And Qu Zhongliang was still her husband and the father of her two children. Wasn't she actually alone?

If anything happens, you can rely on Qu Zhongliang.

Thinking of this, Sun Wanru immediately pulled her clothes and tidied her messy hair.

"Husband~~"

Qu Zhongliang had just finished arguing with the Sun family, and he was feeling very happy, even walking with more energy. Suddenly, he heard someone speaking to him in a high-pitched voice, and he shuddered.

"Who, who called me?" Qu Zhongliang looked around.

"It's me, husband."

Sun Wanru came out from behind a big tree and walked to Qu Zhongliang, staring at him with loving eyes:

"It's been a while since I last reminisced with my husband. Has he forgotten about me?"

"What, you, you are Sun Wanru?"

Looking at the old and haggard face in front of him, Qu Zhongliang took a step back in fear - what the hell?

In his memory, Sun Wanru was always a woman with a face like a full moon, adorned with gold and silver, and plump and beautiful. Even when she was on the road to exile, she always tried her best to dress herself neatly and appropriately.

Now, I have only been avoiding her for a while, how come Sun Wanru has become like this: wearing tattered clothes, dirty and thin, with half of her long hair white, looking like a country woman in her fifties.

Not to mention her missing half arm, hidden in her sleeve, which made her look even weaker.

Qu Zhongliang simply couldn't believe that this person was his wife.

"It's me, my husband,"

Sun Wanru used her intact hand to pull at the front of her shirt. It must be said that although Sun Wanru had lost a lot of weight, her basic qualities were still there.

"Husband. I have done many wrong things before. I know you won't blame me, right? After all, I did it all for the Sun family and for our future good life."

Sun Wanru said in a gentle tone that Qu Zhongliang had never heard before:

"I've been thinking about this over and over again these past few days. Now our daughter, Qu Xiaoxiao, has severed ties with us, and Yaozu has been adopted by the eldest wife."

"That's fine too. After all, you and I have fulfilled our responsibilities to the Sun family."

"Next, I want you and I to have another child. Regardless of whether it's a boy or a girl, we'll both take our husband's surname. What do you think?"

"When we get to Agutta, you and I will be united as husband and wife, and with our future children, we will live a good life as a family..."

Sun Wanru expressed her feelings to Qu Zhongliang in a seductive voice.

It has to be said that if her heartfelt words were spoken in the past when the Sun family was doing well, they would definitely have moved Qu Zhongliang.

But now she looks like this, and she also had an affair with the police before.

When Qu Zhongliang heard her say that she wanted to live a good life with him and give birth to more children for him, he felt physically uncomfortable all over.

“Stop, stop, stop, stop, stop…”

Qu Zhongliang didn't wait for Sun Wanru to continue with her sentimental words and interrupted her repeatedly:

"Sun Wanru, you don't think I care about what happened between you and the official before, do you?"

"What, you?"

Sun Wanru was stunned: What's there to worry about? It's all in the past.

She had only been flattering the officials for a while for a little benefit - Qu Zhongliang was a scholar, couldn't he even understand this?

"Are you saying such nonsense just because I'm missing half an arm?"

Sun Wanru said angrily:

"Qu Zhongliang, I didn't expect you to be such a superficial person. I really misjudged you!"

"Humph, so what if I'm missing half an arm? The Sun family has plenty of money. When we get to Aguta, we'll still have servants and maids to call. They don't need me, the head of the family, to take care of the housework. What's the big deal?"

"Or, do you really have a mistress outside and have long since left me?"

Qu Zhongliang: "..."

I didn't know where to start complaining. However, Sun Wanru was right about the last sentence.

Qu Zhongliang simply stopped pretending.

He frankly admitted:

"Yes, I did have a concubine. Not only that, Yunniang also gave me a smart and clever son, whose talent is no less than that of Yaozu's child."

"So, you want to divorce me now?"

Qu Zhongliang put on a shameless face like a dead pig that is not afraid of boiling water - it would be best if Sun Wanru is willing to divorce.

After all, he was a son-in-law and his household registration is still under the name of the Sun family. If Sun Wanru does not agree to divorce, he has no right to divorce her. Only Sun Wanru can divorce him.
