When Song Ruozhen arrived, she heard the conversation coming from inside. She raised her eyebrows slightly. She hadn't even made a move yet, and they were already talking about divorce.

"Mother, don't be sad."

Seeing that Liu Ruyan's eyes were red, Song Ruozhen took her arm to comfort her, saying that her mother had suffered too much in the past two years.

"Mother is alright." Liu Ruyan wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes. "What do you think your eldest brother is thinking?"

“Back then, he was engaged to the Luo family. I saw that he and the Luo family girl were not without feelings for each other, so I broke off the engagement for no reason and insisted on marrying Siying.”

I initially thought he genuinely loved her, which is why he went along with her. But now, he's only been back a short while and he's already demanding a divorce. Why is that?

Song Ruozhen thought back to when Song Yanzhou was wrongly accused, he never told his parents so as not to worry them. Even though his family didn't understand, he didn't explain.

His mother always thought that he had been treating Fan Siying so well for the past two years because he liked her.

If she knew the truth, I'm afraid my mother would hate the Fan family to the extreme!

"Mother, don't you think there's no affection between my elder brother and sister-in-law at all?" Song Ruozhen asked.

Fan Siying is a troublemaker and cannot be allowed to live. The Fan family in the book is always causing trouble, and Fan Siying is even more restless.

After the Song family fell into poverty, she amassed a fortune and slept with other men. She not only mocked her elder brother for being crippled, but also slandered him for being impotent. As a result, she remained a virgin even after two years of marriage!

This incident made his elder brother a laughingstock in the entire capital, and it became the final straw that broke his back.

A real death warrant!

However, since the eldest brother figured things out, his thinking has obviously changed, and things have started to develop differently than before.

“But your older brother insisted on marrying her, no matter how much your father and I tried to persuade him, it was no use.”

Liu Ruyan frowned; this was the part she couldn't understand the most.

Although Yan Zhou was more assertive than his brothers, he had never disobeyed his parents' wishes before. However, when it came to marriage, he seemed to have made up his mind, and nothing they said could change his mind.

"Perhaps it's not true affection, but there's another reason behind it."

Song Ruozhen coldly stared at the greedy faces of the Fan family and said in a deep voice:

"I heard that the Fan family is not upright. My elder brother didn't know her at all before, but he stayed out all night that one time. When he came back, he wanted to marry her."

Why does Mother think... this is?

Liu Ruyan stood there in a daze. She and her husband had never been able to understand this point before, and they had tried to persuade Yan Zhou more than once, but to no avail.

"Is it possible..."

Her expression changed, and a look of disbelief flashed in her eyes.

Song Ruozhen knew that Liu Ruyan would definitely realize the problem, but at that time the Song family was already in a very difficult situation and could not believe that the Fan family would dare to set their sights on her eldest brother.

Fan Siying thought Song Yanzhou would be scared when he heard this, but she didn't expect him to ask her if she was sure.

Meeting those cold, deep eyes, so dark and devoid of any light, filled her with unease.

His gaze shifted, and seeing that Song Zhiyu and the others had arrived, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and say, "I'm sure!"

"it is good."

Song Yanzhou agreed.

"Third brother, could you please fetch some paper, pen, and ink pad?"

Song Zhiyu was slightly taken aback. Was his older brother really going to get a divorce?

Although he doesn't like his sister-in-law, divorce is a big deal. Isn't his older brother being too hasty?

He subconsciously glanced at his fifth sister beside him, and seeing Song Ruozhen nod, he quickly threw out a sentence—

"I'll go right away."

In the blink of an eye, it disappeared without a trace, faster than a rabbit.

Fan Siying stood there dumbfounded, still a little confused. Had she really agreed?

How could Song Yanzhou possibly agree to that?

"You...you'd better think this through. If you divorce me today, don't even think about begging me to come back!" Fan Siying said angrily.

Song Yanzhou scoffed lightly; he really didn't understand why Fan Siying had such confidence.

After learning that he had been framed, he felt extreme disgust for this woman, but he agreed to the marriage only to avoid burdening his family.

From that moment on, he made up his mind that he would never talk about mutual affection or love again in this lifetime.

Being loyal to the emperor and serving the country, and protecting one's family are enough.

Nothing else to ask for.

But he accomplished nothing, causing his mother a great deal of worry over the past two years, and also greatly troubling his younger siblings.

As soon as Song Zhiyu brought over pen and ink, Song Yanzhou immediately began to write the letter of divorce.

The writing is sharp and flowing, as if he had wanted to write it for a long time, and this time he finally wrote it.

It wasn't until Song Yanzhou wrote down his name and pressed his fingerprint that Fan Siying finally came to her senses, her face pale.

It shouldn't be like this!

Song Yanzhou should be begging her not to divorce him. He is disabled in both legs, his father-in-law is dead, the Song family is no longer what it used to be, and he can no longer marry a good girl.

Why did he choose to divorce?

Qian Qiuxiang panicked when she saw this. Song Yanzhou was actually serious. This stupid daughter of hers, she talked a good game but couldn't get the man under her control at all!

"Yan Zhou, don't be impulsive. As the saying goes, even a night of marriage brings a hundred days of kindness."

Siying was just worried about her younger brother and acted impulsively. Please don't hold a grudge against her. How can such a good marriage be dissolved so easily?

Song Yanzhou remained unmoved, his gaze fixed on Fan Siying. "I've finished writing. It's your turn."

Fan Siying felt as if her feet were rooted to the ground, unable to move an inch. The thought that if she really got a divorce, she would be nothing after leaving the Song family!

During her stay at her parents' home, apart from the first two days when her family treated her very kindly, she gradually became impatient.

She had thought the Song family would come to take her back and bring her many nice gifts, but they never came. She had no choice but to return because she couldn't stay there any longer.

If they really get divorced, where will they find a good life after they go back?

"I……"

Seeing that Fan Siying seemed to have sobered up now and probably didn't want a divorce anymore, Song Ruozhen quickly spoke up:

"Miss Fan, hurry up and write it. We've already said all this, you don't mean you want to change your mind, do you?"

When Fan Siying heard Song Ruozhen address her, she glared at her fiercely. "So this is how you address me, Miss Fan?"

She knew that this little slut was eager for her to divorce so that everyone in the manor could indulge her!

“Miss Fan, you made the right decision. Since it’s not a good match, it’s best to part amicably, so that your brother won’t drag you down,” Song Yi’an chimed in.

Song Zhiyu looked at his second brother in surprise, "When the Fan family came to ask for money before, didn't you say that it's better to tear down a temple than to break up a marriage? Why are you advising them to get a divorce today?"

"Didn't you say that to comfort your own people because you thought your brother liked her? Now that your brother doesn't like her anymore, why shouldn't you advise them to divorce?" Song Yi'an retorted.

Song Zhiyu: "Miss Fan, I'll have someone pack your things right away and send them back to you later, so you won't have trouble carrying them and have to come back again."

Song Ruozhen and Song Yi'an exchanged a glance. Song Zhiyu had a talent for making people angry.
