"What? Even a mother-in-law like me is not worthy of a stool when I come in?"

The old woman was really angry. Her tone was aggressive and she glared at her daughter-in-law with anger in her eyes: "If the upper beam is crooked, the lower beam will be crooked."

"What are you talking about, mother? You and your husband rarely come here on weekdays. Isn't it true that there was no announcement or preparation? Your daughter-in-law got up early in the morning to take care of the two children. It's good enough that her clothes and hairpins are not messy like a crazy woman. Mother and husband, please take a seat quickly."

Jing Qiurong had no choice but to bow to Old Liu, but she patted her daughter, who was standing closely behind her, on the back of her hand twice to comfort her, and then sat down without saying a word.

Come on, let me see how you perform.

Chu Xuan and Old Liu sat sullenly across from Jing Qiurong. Aunt Liu, who had been following closely behind Chu Xuan, also wanted to sit down, but seeing no one speak up, she didn't dare sit next to Jing Chunrong, as there were no empty chairs beside Old Liu and Chu Xuan. In the end, she reluctantly stood behind her aunt, Old Liu, with a look of contemptuous smirk on her face. She didn't even bother to call Jing Qiurong the legitimate wife.

The five of them sat facing each other like this for quite a while. No one brought them tea or snacks, and no one said a word. The scene was awkward, and the few maids who followed in made people feel very strange.

I only knew that the old lady and the prince came here with such a fierce attitude, and brought their strongest members with them. They must have known that Madam would not have a good outcome, but why is she sitting here like this? Has the old lady changed her mind?

"If my husband agrees to a divorce, I will leave my dowry in the Marquis' Mansion. I will take nothing else except Xi Jie'er and Pu Ge'er!"

Otherwise, if I can't take it with me, I'll burn it and you won't get it. Now I just want to be with my parents and brothers. However, Jing Qiurong didn't say this thought out loud, but just looked at the hypocritical husband in front of her coldly.

Anyway, the Pingyang Marquis Mansion is just an empty shell, and all the valuable things have been taken away by her daughter. Jing Qiurong has nothing to be nostalgic about, and she doesn't want to continue wasting her precious time in this family of hypocritical and evil people, so as to avoid them hiding and dithering for a long time, pretending to be just to take advantage of her, and being a whore and wanting to be a saint.

Mi Mama was shocked. From her daughter's words, she already knew the purpose of these three people's visit. Such a heartless man should be divorced. But with such a large dowry, how could the girl just refuse it?

She was a little angry that the girl didn't fight for it, and she felt dissatisfied: "Girl, these things were carefully selected for you by the general and the old lady, please don't..."

Chu Chunxi didn't say anything and didn't move. He just watched the three people opposite him with their ever-changing expressions. His mother had already made up her mind and believed that she was a strong mother. There was no need for her little baby to take action.

Jing Qiurong gestured for her to shut up, and Aunt Mi didn't dare say anything more. She knew her daughter's dowry best. It was all the best things in General Jing's mansion. Since it was a divorce, why didn't she take the dowry away? It was a free gift to this family. Just by looking at their expressions when they heard the news, it was clear that it was not worth keeping.

She supported the girl's divorce, but she was unwilling to leave the dowry behind. Even if she couldn't take it all, she should at least find a way to give more to Pu Ge'er and Xi Jie'er. How could she just give it away? Otherwise, how would they live in the future?

"Madam, why are you doing this? Don't you care about the ten years of marriage?"

Chu Xuan's hypocritical and heartbroken expression, almost like he was beating his chest, would make anyone who didn't know think they were deeply in love. But Jing Qiurong had already come to terms with it. She had been foolish before, but now with the guidance of the fairy aunt, if she still didn't repent and wouldn't change, then it wouldn't just be a matter of stupidity; she would have brought her own death upon herself. She deserved it!

However, Chu Xuan did not expect Jing Qiurong to propose a divorce on her own initiative, which saved him and his parents from having to think carefully and to come up with all those sweet words.

Old Lady Liu also felt strange. From Jing Qiurong's words, she knew she already knew about the raid on her family's property. But asking for a divorce without a dowry was a novelty in the Daqing Dynasty. It was too strange. Could it be that she thought the Jing family's crime of treason would also implicate the Pingyang Marquisate, and she was afraid of being implicated and exiled, so she was anxious to escape?

But even if she left the Pingyang Marquis's Mansion, she would be kicked out of the house without any money. Could she possibly fly to heaven? If she remarried, she could only marry a commoner.

I thought she was just stupid, but she was so stupid that her brain was a mess. A fake smile appeared in her eyes. Aunt Liu behind her was even more proud, her cheeks flushed, and she had already started dreaming of wearing a bright red wedding dress.

"Madam, you should take the children and hide in the farm first. I will come and bring you back after the storm has passed." Chu Xuan tried to persuade her hypocritically. They had been married for ten years and had a pair of children. Although they did not have much affection for each other on a daily basis, he still could not tolerate Jing Qiurong's initiative. If she wanted to leave, he would divorce her.

But he was anxiously pulled at the back of his clothes by Aunt Liu, who was standing behind Old Liu. Aunt Liu's anxiety and unwillingness were all shown on her face. Aunt Mi glared at her with contempt, but unfortunately she didn't see it.

"Of course I won't go to Zhuangzi. If I have to die, I'd rather die in the Marquis' Mansion. At worst, I'll just hang myself on the gate of the Marquis' Mansion with a three-foot white silk..."

Everyone:…

Chu Chunxi: Mom, aren't you overacting a bit? Fortunately, my brother is not here.

"Divorce her, so as to avoid the bad luck from her family." Old Mrs. Liu couldn't help herself when she heard this. She had just wanted to give some face to this bitch and send her to the farm, so she didn't say it earlier. Now she is getting ahead of herself, thinking that she is still the legitimate daughter of the general's mansion.

As he said this, he jumped up and pointed directly at Jing Qiurong, shouting sternly, almost clapping his hands together: "Jing Qiurong, I want to see how long you can be so arrogant. You even dare to threaten me with death. If you want to die, hang yourself at the gate of General Jing's mansion and die before anyone else moves in. Don't let our mansion be tainted with bad luck."

Jing Qiurong stood up straight, slapped her fingers away, and took two steps forward to look the old woman straight in the eye. "Just think if I dare. I've already written down my will. If word gets out that anything has happened to me or my children, the drums at the palace gate will immediately sound. Someone will beat the drums to protest my grievances and prove that you, the Marquis of Pingyang, murdered your wife and children."

Then he looked at Chu Xuan, who was stunned and thought that his wife had become a different person. "As for whether to kill the wife and children, or kill the daughter-in-law and grandchildren, you can decide who to push out first."

Chu Xuan and the other two: …

We haven't even thought of giving you a bowl of Hedinghong yet! You've already prepared a pot for us? Wicked woman, wicked woman, you're really going to be a disaster.
