Chapter 124: The Zhong Family Arrives

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Just a few seconds later, Xue Yan understood the plans of the old master and mistress of the Zhong family.

Regardless, the Yin family was related to the emperor, which made it impossible for the Zhong family to directly confront them. But Zhong Kai was different; he was just a young member of the family. Even if he was impolite to Yin Yang, it could still be justified.

“All Kai?”

At that moment, Zhong Yu’s voice came from afar.

Currently, Zhong Yu was still recovering from childbirth. When she saw Zhong Yu step out, supported by a maid, Xue Yan hurriedly approached, “Ah Yu, why are you out?”

“That’s right, Aunt, you’re still recovering. You should not be out here. Please go back.”

When Zhong Kai saw Zhong Yu, his expression immediately became gentle.

“I am fine.”

Facing the concern of Xue Yan and Zhong Kai, Zhong Yu whispered, then her gaze fell behind Jiang Peihuan.

“Madam.”

Seeing Zhong Yu’s expression, Dong Xue quickly brought Zhong Yi to her. Taking Zhong Yi from Dong Xue’s arms, Zhong Yu’s eyes filled with tears. Yin Yang, seeing all this, had a complex expression in his eyes. After a moment of thought, he stepped forward, “Zhong Yu, the child…”

“Stop, don’t come closer!”

Upon hearing Yin Yang’s voice, Zhong Yu cut him off coldly.

Staring at the man in front of her, Zhong Yu eyes filled with coldness, “Yin Yang, I’ve told you, this child has nothing to do with you.”

“Madam, what you’re saying isn’t right. The young master also bear the blood of the Yin family, how can he have nothing to do with his father?”

Hearing these words, everyone turned to look. They saw Madam Yan supporting the Old Madam Yin approaching them.

The Old Madam Yin was wrapped in fine silk, but her face was harsh.

With just one glance, Jian Peihuan looked away.

“Mother, why did you come here?”

Seeing the Old Madam Yin approaching, Yin Yang quickly went to support her.

Hearing Yin Yang’s words, the Old Madam Yin spoke coldly, “If I didn’t come, I’m afraid the Yin family would have been humiliated.”

“All Qing, bring me the child.”

“Yes, mother.”

Upon hearing the Old Madam Yin’s words, Madam Yan bowed respectfully and then walked towards Zhong Yu, “Madam, this is the old Madam’s command. Give the child to… Ah…”

When Madam Yan approached, Zhong Yu lifted her leg and kicked her in the stomach. Madam Yan immediately fell to the ground.

“All… My stomach…”

Lying on the ground, Madam Yan clutched her belly and wailed.

Everyone watched this scene in shock.

Only when they heard Madam Yan’s wail did they snap back to reality. The Old Madam Yin looked at Madam Yan lying on the ground, her eyes filled with gloom. She pointed at Zhong Yu, her eyes full of anger, “Zhong Yu, do you still respect me as your mother-in-law? How dare you commit violence front of me.”

“Old Madam, you must be joking. I have always respected you. But Madam Yan is only a concubine and tried to take my child. Shouldn’t I teach her a lesson?” “You…”

“Alright, alright… If this is the case, then today I will teach you how a daughter-in-law should behave. Someone, tie Zhong Yu up!”

“Old Madam Yin, aren’t you going too far?”

Upon hearing Old Madam Yin’s words, Zhong Kai immediately wanted to step forward but was held back by Xue Yan.

Turning her head to look at Old Madam Yin, Xue Yan spoke up with a displeased expression.

Yet upon hearing her words, Old Madam Yin revealed a trace of mockery in her eyes, “Madam Jiang, since when has it been your place to intervene in the matters of the Yin family?”

“The Yin family’s matters may not be my concern, but my daughter from the Zhong family is not someone you can bully at will.”

The sound of orderly footsteps reached their ears, and Jiang Peihuan turned her head to see an elderly couple walking over. The old master was still dressed in military uniform, followed by an orderly group of soldiers.

Upon seeing this, Old Madam Yin showed a trace of panic in her eyes.

But in Xue Yan’s eyes, a hint of nostalgia was revealed.

“Uncle Zhong, Auntie Zhong.”

Old Master Zhong was already full of white hair, but he was in good spirits. The old Madam Zhong was a bit plump but still very imposing

Seeing Xue Yan, the old couple showed smiles, “Yan Er, you’ve grown up so fast.”

“Thank you for taking care of Ah Yu.”

“Auntie, Yu and I grew up together. It would be rude of me not to help.”

Old Madam Zhong smiled and did not say anything. Instead, she looked at Zhong Yu with red eyes.

“All Yu.”

“Father, mother, your daughter is unfilial, causing you both to make this long journey.”

The trip from Qingzhou to the Jingdou would require at least two days of travel, even with the horse.

Seeing Zhong Yu kneel before them, Old Madam Zhong hurriedly helped her up. Seeing her daughter’s pale face, Old Madam Zhong’s eyes filled with tears, “All Yu, we owe you an apology.”

“If it wasn’t for the sake of protecting the Zhong family, you wouldn’t have to…” “Mother!”

Zhong Yu hurriedly interrupted Old Madam Zhong’s words. At this moment, Old Master Zhong, who had been silent all this while, spoke up, “We came here this time for the matter of your divorce.”

“Since the Yin family has been treating you like this, you don’t need to stay there anymore. Take the divorce letter, bring Yi Er and return to Qingzhou with me.”

Although Zhong Yu had already made up her mind to divorce, she was still very worried about the Zhong family. But hearing her father’s words now, her eyes were full of gratitude.

She looked at Old Master Zhong and bowed solemnly.” Thank you, Father.”” Everyone in the Yin family were all stunned, especially Old Madam Yin. Traditionally, parents of the bride do not push for a divorce from the groom’s side. At this moment, Old Madam Yin, no longer afraid, turned to the Zhong family and said coldly, “Divorce peacefully is impossible, at most we will give you a divorce letter.”

“Also, the child is the bloodline of my Yin family. Zhong Yu can leave, but the child must stay.”

“That’s impossible!”

As soon as Old Madam Yin’s voice fell, Zhong Yu spoke up, “Yi Er already bears the Zhong family name. He has no connection with the Yin family.”

“If it wasn’t for Huan Er, Yi Er and 1 would have already been gone. Now, you Yin family want to take Yi Er away, it’s absolutely impossible, even if 1 die, it won’t happen.”

“You…”

“As you can see, this is the good daughter that your Zhong family has taught. She dares to defy her mother-in-law like this.”

“As a mother-in-law, you let maids insult your daughter-in-law. You, as a person, are also not qualified to be my daughter’s mother-in-law.”

Faced with Old Madam Yin’s accusation, Old Madam Zhong’s retorted with a cold look in her eyes.

For a moment, the entire courtyard was tense.

Suddenly, Old Master Zhong looked at Yin Yang,” Lord Yin, what do you have to say about this?”

Calling him Lord Yin had already made Old Master Zhong’s stance clear. Hearing how he addressed him, Yin Yang’s eyes revealed a complicated look.

He did not look at Old Master Zhong or anyone else, but at Zhong Yu.. After a moment of silence, he said in a low voice,” Do you really want to divorce me?”
