"I'm an ingrate? I'm an ingrate because you stole wine from the Ling family, and I took all the blame upon myself, which is why I divorced my child's father."

"Before our divorce, you said that my family was my root, and that as long as I came back, you would make sure I lived a good life, no worse than I did in the Ling family. You said I would always be your daughter."

“I believe you. I got a divorce. What did you do after I came back? On my first day back, you demanded money from me, and told me to get out if I didn’t.”

“I paid, but you still wouldn’t have it. You insisted on making me marry an old man. When the children saw this, they tried to stop you, and you even hit them.”

"Is this how you treat my mother? You can't stand to see me doing well?"

The mother felt a little guilty after hearing what Wang Di said. "Stop talking nonsense. You were divorced because you were immoral and messed around with other men, so the Ling family didn't want you."

"Shut up!" Ling's mother roared in fury. "I'm still standing here. Do you think I don't know why my son divorced his wife? You're trying to twist the truth here?"

As soon as Wang's mother saw the Ling family, she got angry. "What are you doing here? Our Wang family's affairs are none of your business. You should leave now and stop getting in the way."

Du Mingxian really wanted to step forward, but someone in the crowd shouted, "They're back, they've been caught and brought back."

The crowd parted to make way, and Lin Hu was seen carrying one person in each hand, Wang's sister-in-law and Wang's brother. The two were dragged back like dead dogs, their faces covered in injuries and their eyes swollen like walnuts.

Lin Hu threw the man to the ground and glared at Wang Mu with murderous intent. "You really are a scoundrel for instigating your son to beat your daughter."

"My son, my son!" When Wang's mother saw her beloved son beaten like this, she was so angry that she trembled all over and didn't know what to say. "You, how dare you hit me? How dare you hit my son? I'm going to sue you."

"Fine, go ahead and sue me." Lin Hu said with a half-smile. "On the battlefield, beheading enemies is as easy as chopping vegetables for me. Before you sue me, I'll cut your head off first. My hands have been itching for a fight these past few days."

"Oh, and your son, your good daughter-in-law, and your grandchildren—you can't let any of them go."

The Queen Mother trembled all over, clearly terrified by Lin Hu. Moreover, when she met Lin Hu's gaze, she felt a chill run down her neck, as if she had already been decapitated and was incapable of thinking.

"You...what do you want to do?"

"We're not going to do anything. We'll fight back the way you beat my sister and sister-in-law today, and then we'll write a letter severing ties between us."

"No."

"Alright, prepare to die." Lin Hu produced a dagger from who-knows-where and held it directly to the Queen Mother's neck.

The Queen Mother was so frightened she wet herself. "Fine, fine, I'll write it, I'll write it."

Lin Hu sheathed the dagger. "Wouldn't it have been better to do this earlier? What a waste of time."

The patriarch of the Wang family, a scholar, wrote a letter severing ties with Lin Hu as requested.

The Wang family wasn't bad, but the villagers loathed Wang's mother and her family. Every family has a daughter, but it's hard to find another family that exploits their daughter like this.

Because of this family's existence, marriage has become more difficult for the entire village. Many people hate them to the core, but there's nothing they can do. Now that someone has stepped forward, everyone feels relieved.

There was even a woman who came forward to help Wang Shi and whispered something in her ear. After hesitating, Wang Shi said, "You have always beaten and scolded us sisters since we were little. We did all the housework."

“Now that we’ve all gotten married, you still want to take something from us to support your son. Since we’re going to sever ties, I, as the eldest sister, can’t just abandon my younger sisters. You should sever ties with us.”

"No way." How could the mother of the king agree? Cutting off one daughter was one thing, but there were other daughters. If they were all cut off, what would her son eat and drink in the future?

Without those money-losing items, my son will suffer in the future.

Wang sneered, "No? Then go die! I'm going all out today. Even if I lose my life, I'll make sure my sisters are never bullied by you again."

Wang rushed forward and snatched the knife from Lin Hu, intending to stab her mother, but... the knife never left Lin Hu's hand, and Lin Hu gave Wang no chance at all.

Lin Hu even pulled Wang Shi back, saying, "Don't dirty your hands with this kind of person. Someone like me who has killed people is more suitable. I know where to start to make it more painful and painful."

Just as Wang turned around to speak, she saw Du Mingxian standing in the crowd, and tears streamed down her face.

Du Mingxian stepped forward to support Wang Shi, saying, "Sister-in-law, let Brother Lin come; he knows how to handle this."

Upon seeing Du Mingxian, Wang seemed to regain her composure. She hadn't shown any signs of distress before, but now her spirits seemed to have been dampened, and she leaned directly against Du Mingxian.

Supporting Wang Shi, Du Mingxian could sense that something was wrong with her. "Brother Lin, you have to hurry." She was really afraid that Wang Shi wouldn't be able to hold on, and that her brother would blame her.

After all, Wang had come to her for advice before, which led to the separation and her return to the Wang family.

Lin Hu nodded slightly, "Alright, it's your choice whether you want to live or keep kissing."

"I will keep kissing you." This time, the Queen Mother absolutely refused.

Lin Hu stepped forward and held a knife to her neck. "Aren't you afraid?"

The Queen Mother closed her eyes, looking as if she were facing death, and said, "Kill me."

Lin Hu sheathed his knife. "Killing you wouldn't be fun. Why not kill your son instead? You had so many daughters just for this son. Now... this son is living so well, as fat as a pig. It's not all because he sucked your daughters' blood."

"With this bloodsucker gone, your married daughters will have an easier time. By killing him, I've essentially saved many lives."

"For example, your married daughter, your daughter's children, and your daughter's in-laws, if you think about it, they really did a good deed."

Du Mingxian, listening from the side, wanted to applaud Lin Hu. What Brother Lin said was so true. If you think about it carefully, there are really many people who are unhappy because of this prince's existence.

Lin Hu took two steps forward, grabbed a knife, and without any hesitation, stabbed it into the brother's leg.

"Ah!" The smell of blood spread instantly. Wang Di was in so much pain that he bent over, clutching his thigh with one hand and covering his wound with the other. He was in so much pain that he almost fainted. "Mother, promise them, promise them! Your son can't go on, your son doesn't want to die, your son doesn't want to die."
