Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Conspiracy Is Broken
"I'm really angry, in vain I still think that I married a virtuous wife and came back, and I trusted her to hand over the rights of the family so much, for so many years, she has the final say in everything in the house, even I have never been disobedient, I didn't expect that I actually raised a vicious wolf by my side", Shui Yunheng became more and more angry the more he spoke, his ten fingers trembled slightly, and he only became more and more angry when he recalled the past.
"It's a shame that I was secretly happy back then, marrying a woman like this, what more could a husband ask for? She is the second daughter of the prime minister, I am also afraid of the pampering of the raiser, only to find out later, it is not like that, since she is the wife, she should hand over the power of the family to her, and then the husband and wife love, I am more assured to do business abroad, until the latter ladies enter the house, and I am not at home all the year round, these things, if not the master you break it, I am afraid that I am still in the dark."
As he spoke, Shui Yunheng actually had some old tears, but his intestines were about to regret it.
Zhuge Ling didn't speak, because he was in a hurry on foot, he was very tired, and now he was eating delicacies from the mountains and seas, where could he take care of Shui Yunheng, just listening to him complain about the bitter water.
Shui Yunheng saw that Zhuge Ling did not interject, and knew that it was a tacit acquiescence, and at this time, he was full of shame and hatred in his heart, which was really not a taste.
"My son is white, he has been sick and weak since he was a child, and he is thirteen years old this year, think about me when I was thirteen years old, I have been running around with my father, and he can only stay at home, even if the wind blows, he will be sick for several days, he has been evil, he has been in the dark for more than ten years, in vain my shrewd mind, these years I have not even suspected the problem here."
When Shui Yunheng finished pouring the bitter water, Zhuge Ling was already full, wiped the corners of his mouth with a cloth, and wanted to get up and rest.
"The master will live in the mansion today, I have ordered someone to prepare a guest room, and the master can live with peace of mind", Shui Yunheng has seen the world in the end, and while he was busy pouring bitter water, he did not forget the number of rituals.
Zhuge Ling didn't refuse, and when Shui Yunheng called Steward Wu, he followed him to rest, and Shui Yunheng didn't feel sleepy at all, and the wine on the table kept pouring into his mouth, with tears in his eyes, and kept thinking about the things of the year.
It wasn't until the moontop that the wine passed three rounds that Shui Yunheng dragged himself drunk, and was supported by Steward Wu to the residence of the third lady Zhao Hanyu, the Jade Cage Rosin Pavilion.
In the early morning of the next day, the pot was boiling in Shuifu, Shui Yunheng didn't scruple this time, although he drank a lot of wine last night, he was full of worries, and he was not drunk and confused, and went to the third lady, just to ask the reason for the miscarriage that year, and under the repeated persuasion of Shui Yunheng, the third lady explained why the miscarriage was made that year.
When she was enjoying the flowers in the yard, she was happy, and then she met the eldest lady, and the two sentences became a disaster, and the eldest lady actually framed her, regardless of dignity and inferiority, and spoke disrespectfully, and the bad words contradicted her, no matter how she explained, the eldest lady couldn't listen.
At that time, the third lady was born coquettish, and her appearance was the most prominent in the house, and she naturally used it as the capital of favor, and it is not an exaggeration to say that she was pampered and arrogant, but she was not disrespectful to the eldest lady, and she didn't dare, her father was just a small official in the court, let me ask, how can I compete with the dynasty leader?
Moreover, the father of the second lady is only the position of the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, and the eldest lady is the second daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, so naturally everyone in the family is pampered, not to mention, the eldest lady's sister-in-law is still the main lady of the second son of Qingyun Hou, and the relationship is complicated, even if people move their fingers, the second lady and the third lady's maiden family will suffer, so for so many years, she can only be at the mercy of the eldest lady and act for the tiger, in fact, the heart is very resentful.
"If you say it now, Master Ben can still give you some face, otherwise, don't blame Master Ben for using family law against you."
There were a lot of people in the front hall, the second lady and the third lady were also among them, Shui Duyao and Shui Dushan, Shui Duqin were also there, and the maid and mother-in-law in the house were even more impassable around the front hall, and the fourth lady did not come, and it was also instructed by Shui Lianyue, although she also wanted to see the down-and-out appearance of the eldest lady, but unfortunately, it was not appropriate to do much now, her body had just improved, she was very weak, and Zhuge Gurong said nothing to the master and would not let her go out.
"Master, what did the concubine do wrong, and you want to use family law on me? For more than ten years, you and I have been in harmony with each other, respecting each other like guests, and the concubine body is even more abided by women's morals and conscientious.
The eldest lady naturally didn't let it go, as the lady of the right position, at this moment, in front of so many people, she was so scolded by Shui Yunheng, she was simply disgraced, and suddenly, anger also ignited in her heart.
"Yes, Dad, if you have something to say, why do you have such a big temper, no matter what your mother has done wrong, she is also a lady, how can she step down in front of so many people this time", Shui Duyao was also kind, but she didn't want to be scolded by Shui Yunheng, and her face turned pale with fright.
"You shut up for me, what did your mother do, she knows in her own heart, if you still protect this slut, you will be treated as if you don't have my father."
After Shui Yunheng's shout, the maids and mother-in-law in the house involuntarily took a few steps back, and almost turned around and walked out of the house.
"What are you yelling at? Yao'er is your daughter-in-law, not your daughter, look at you scared the child, if you scare something, how can it be good"? The eldest lady saw that Shui Duyao's face was ugly, and she unconsciously spoke for her daughter, but the more Shui Yunheng looked at her, the more angry she became, she took a step forward, and as soon as she stretched out her hand, she was a big mouth.
"Smack".
"Slut, are you the master in this house, or am I the master? Dare to contradict this master, do you really want to impose family law on you, and you will confess, en"? Shui Yunheng pointed to the tip of the eldest lady's nose, her face was hideous, and when she saw the eldest lady, she almost rushed up and grabbed her neck and strangled her to death.
The eldest lady covered the half of her beaten face, her eyebrows stood up, she looked at Shui Yunheng in surprise, and exclaimed, "You actually beat me?" I've been a husband and wife for more than ten years, and you actually beat me? So what the hell did you say, what did I do wrong? If you can't say it, Shui Yunheng, the relationship between you and me will end here."
"Okay, raise you as a bad wolf by your side, this master might as well divorce you, and worry about it in the future, for fear that someone will be drugged, and the Shui family will have no queen, and no one will inherit the family business in the future."
Shui Yunheng's words, like a falling star, slammed into the heart of the eldest lady, only to see that her arrogance suddenly disappeared by half, and her face also changed color, and she was a little flustered.
