Zhou Shui'an was embarrassed and quickly let go of his hand.
"Father-in-law and mother-in-law, why are you here?"
He rubbed his hands and felt a little embarrassed on his face. Being seen by such a person made him lose face, and Zhou Shui'an felt depressed in his heart.
"If you don't come here and see how you know you are so capable, you even dare to take a concubine!"
Mrs. Zhang was holding a ball of fire in her heart and started spraying at him.
"A big-ass little shopkeeper really thinks of himself as a great master. Ordinary people have never seen anyone take concubines, and that's all. He dares to go through the formalities of a wife. Do you, the Zhou family, think of us as old men?"
The Shen family is dead, isn't it? You mother and son are so cruel to us!"
People around were laughing and watching the fun. The Shen family was usually weak and could be bullied. They thought it was the mother's family who didn't care. Who would have thought that the Shen family was so strong and suppressed the Zhou family mother and son as soon as they came.
It seems that it is still a matter of Shen's temperament. He is too weak to deceive himself and cannot stand upright.
Zhou's mother and Zhou Shui'an were sprayed with blood. They were at fault for this matter, and they could only hold on if they couldn't get along with each other.
"No matter what my mother-in-law said, how could I dare to harm the Shen family?"
Zhou's mother had a sneer on her face, and she didn't know how many times she had scolded her. How could such a bad old woman have such a good life? She had a son who won the imperial examination. If she hadn't been afraid of Shen Yanqing, she wouldn't have been a lowly child for Mrs. Zhang.
"Ms. Shen didn't give Anzi a son when she got married. My old lady is not someone who treats her daughter-in-law harshly. I didn't ask Anzi to divorce her when she couldn't have a baby. But our Zhou family has only passed down three generations, and the incense cannot be cut off with her.
no……"
Shen Yingxue was told that she couldn't hold her head up. Without a son, she had no confidence in the Zhou family.
Mrs. Zhang felt angry when she saw how useless she looked.
"Yingxue has only been married for a few years. How do you know she won't be able to give birth to a son? I think this is Zhou Shui'an's deliberate excuse for wanting to take a concubine. Bah! You still want to blame my daughter, but you don't even have to look at yourself to see if you have that face!
"
Mrs. Zhang spat at Zhou's mother and pulled Shen Yingxue over.
"You just let her play with you and you are bullied to the point of being bullied and you don't even know how to say a word. How did mother teach you in the past?"
Mrs. Zhang was so angry that she poked her forehead with her finger. She didn't know who she was following with her cowardly attitude.
"mother……"
Shen Yingxue's eyes were hot, and when she raised her head, the slap marks on her face were revealed. Her skin was already white, but the marks looked red, swollen and scary.
Mrs. Zhang paused, gritted her teeth, pointed at Zhou's mother and asked, "Did she beat you?"
Zhou's mother felt guilty and looked away, not daring to look at her.
"This is how your Zhou family treats their daughters-in-law. You can beat your mother-in-law if she wants, and you can take concubines if your son wants to. If my old lady hadn't come today, my daughter would have died in your house!"
Mrs. Zhang was so angry that she was shaking all over, but she didn't know that she had accidentally told the truth. In the original book, Shen Yingxue was tortured to death by the Zhou family.
These words are too poisonous. If spread, their Zhou family's reputation will be ruined.
"Mother-in-law, this is my son-in-law's fault. I have no choice but to marry A-Yuan. She is an orphan and has nowhere to go after leaving the Zhou family. Although I am a concubine, I have always treated A-Yuan as my sister and will never let her down.
Yingxue.”
"Hey, you treat her like a sister, so why don't you give her a dowry and marry her off? What's the point of bringing her into the house yourself?"
Jiang Miao looked with disdain, these two were just typical green tea and scumbag men. They pretended to be generous and pitiful on the surface, but in fact they were just making excuses for their own selfish desires.
Zhao Yuan felt nervous when she saw her face. It turned out that she was from the Shen family. No wonder the Shen family knew that Zhou Shui'an wanted to take a concubine.
Her lowered eyes were full of resentment. It was because of Jiang Miao that she and her cousin were laughed at. Zhao Yuan's thoughts turned and she knelt down to Mrs. Zhang with a pitiful look on her face.
"Auntie, this is all my fault. Don't blame your aunt and cousin. I couldn't bear to leave my aunt and wanted to stay with her to fulfill my filial piety, but I didn't expect to make it difficult for my aunt and cousin. I will leave the Zhou family right now..."
She cried so hard that she looked at Zhou Shui'an with anger and resentment, which made his heart break.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Where can you go after leaving the Zhou family?"
"It's better for me to twist my hair and become my sister-in-law than to be an eyesore in front of you and my sister-in-law."
Zhao Yuan covered her face with a handkerchief and was pulled up from the ground by him.
"Your sister-in-law is not such a petty person, and there will be no room for you anywhere."
Seeing the two of them chatting with each other, Shen Yingxue's face was pale, and her sleeves were about to be torn by her.
Mrs. Zhang's face is getting darker and darker. This little bitch is thinking deeply. If she wants to let her in, her silly girl's bones will have to be eaten away.
"Yingxue goes back and packs her things, let's go!" She didn't want to stay at Zhou's house for a moment anymore.
"What are you talking about? Yingxue is the daughter-in-law of the Zhou family, how can she leave?" Zhou Shui'an quickly grabbed Shen Yingxue. Shen Yanqing had just won the exam and had a bright future, but Zhou Shui'an was reluctant to part with the Yue family.
"Then send this little bitch away, or Yingxue will leave immediately!"
"This..." Zhou Shui'an hesitated. Although he couldn't let go of the Shen family, he couldn't let go of Ayuan either.
Seeing what he didn't understand, his heart had long been seduced by that foxy girl.
"Release your hands!" Mrs. Zhang shouted.
"I won't let go..." Zhou Shui'an couldn't tell Mrs. Zhang, so he turned to Shen Yingxue.
"Yingxue, please stop being angry, okay?"
Shen Yingxue lowered her eyes and said nothing. A hint of impatience flashed in Zhou Shui'an's eyes, but they soon returned to gentleness.
He gently touched her face with his hand, "Don't you understand what I mean? I can't look down on anyone but you. Ayuan is because of a debt. I have absolutely no feelings for a man or a woman towards her. You stay here and let me give it to you." Is it okay to apply the medicine?”
Her husband's comforting words made the grievances in her heart burst out. Shen Yingxue's tears fell and fell on his hands, and Zhou Shui'an wiped them away for her in distress.
"Stop crying, be careful your eyes will become swollen from crying."
Seeing her daughter being coaxed by Zhou Shui'an, Mrs. Zhang secretly scolded her for not living up to her expectations. Her husband couldn't wake her up even if he took a concubine. Mrs. Zhang's chest was so tight that she couldn't breathe and almost pushed her back.
"Grandma!"
Zhou Ling ran out of the kitchen and stood timidly in front of Mrs. Zhang, clutching the hem of her clothes tightly with both hands. Her little face was so swollen that she looked a little scary.
Mother Zhou's eyes twitched and she wanted to pull her back, but Mrs. Zhang's anger exploded over there.
"You are a crazy old woman, you even beat your granddaughter, you are such a black-hearted thing, why didn't God strike you with lightning and kill you! Why should my pampered daughter be abused by your cruel mother-in-law, Shen Yingxue? Go pack my things quickly, if you don’t come home with me today, you won’t recognize me as your mother in the future!”
Mrs. Zhang was so angry that she was trembling. What kind of sin did her daughter usually suffer? She used to think that the Zhou family was a good family, but she never thought that Mrs. Zhou was so vicious.
"mother……"
Shen Yingxue didn't want to leave just like that, but she didn't dare to go against her mother's words.
"Ms. Wang, Miaoya, drag her back for me!"
"Why."
Jiang Miao couldn't stand it for a long time. Zhou Shui'an was hypocritical and heartless. He was either a good man or Shen Yingxue, a fan of the authorities. Fortunately, Mrs. Zhang was strong enough to let her leave the Zhou family.
"Mother-in-law...Yingxue..."
Zhou Shui'an chased him out, but Shen Lao Er and Shen Lao Er stopped him. They were angry and hated the Zhou family for mistreating his sister. They exerted such force on their hands that Zhou Shui'an felt that his arm was about to break.
"Ouch... it hurts... Yingxue can't leave, mother-in-law, please let Yingxue stay..." He grinned in pain and stumbled out.
"Hmph! Send this little bitch away and ask your mother to come to apologize in person, and then we, Yingxue, will consider whether to come back!"
