Capítulo 1330: Chapter 1328: Drenched in Dog Blood Drama
Wufu and Madam Zhou looked at each other, and she couldn’t avoid it. This was a decision no one could make for her; it had to be her own. Whatever the future held, no one else could be blad.
“Wufu…” Madam Zhou’s voice trembled.
Wufu smiled, “Well, I’m not forcing you. You’ll understand one day anyway, there’s no rush.”
eting with Wu Lihong today was unexpected for Madam Zhou, so pushing too hard might lead to unintended consequences. In any case, the Wu Family’s plans to manipulate her were impossible.
Madam Zhou sighed with relief, touching her belly, “I just won’t see him.”
Seeing this, Wufu said, “You should plan for yourself, not just for
or this child. As for , there’s no rush for you, and the sa goes for him. Even if it’s a child from concubinage, it doesn’t an they cannot succeed!”
Madam Zhou was surprised, “But the eyes of the world…”
Wufu covered her mouth and said, “I think you’ve been burdened by reputation, trapped by it, which is why you’re hesitant and indecisive.”
Madam Zhou’s face flushed.
“You shouldn’t feel guilty. Whether or not you’re a concubine, it’s not the way others perceive it.” Wufu picked up the red box and opened it, “This marriage certificate, how did you sign it back then? Did you file it with the Yan?”
Madam Zhou looked at the marriage certificate, her hands trembling, gently touching it, shaking her head, “… I never filed it with the Yan. I thought, when he returned, after all the Liu Li rituals were complete, then I would file it. Who knew…”
A first-class wait lasted over ten years.
Back then, the marriage certificate was formally arranged and suggested by Old Scholar Zhou.
“My grandfather suggested it?” Wufu was sowhat astonished.
Madam Zhou nodded, blushing, “He and I, we were deeply in love back then. I was simply confused and gave myself to him. When your grandfather found out, he forced him to write this marriage certificate. At that ti, Mr. Wu swore he would marry
properly, so he willingly wrote it.”
Wufu felt as if she were caught in a lodrama.
“He really was bold and ignorant!” Wufu said, “Mother, this marriage certificate, complete with witnesses, and matchmaker, I had soone examine it. It’s a proper marriage certificate, except it wasn’t filed, but it is valid. That ans, holding this marriage certificate, you can claim publicly to be his wife-to-be, only lacking the formal ceremony.”
Madam Zhou said, “I’ve already told you, I and Mr. Wu are rightfully engaged. They shouldn’t call you illeg… say such things!”
Wufu couldn’t help but laugh and cry, “Mother, if you knew, then why did you think I’m an illegitimate child, just listening to others? Did you believe it after hearing it so often?”
Madam Zhou gave a wry smile and lowered her head, “Wufu, in the countryside, without a proper banquet, it’s not considered a marriage. Even with a marriage certificate, it’s a child born before marriage, and I never married him.”
“However, with this marriage certificate in hand, he counts as your husband, just one step short.” Wufu pointed to the date on the marriage certificate, “If his marriage certificate with Madam Wang is dated after yours, truthfully speaking, you are the legitimate wife.”
Madam Zhou’s eyes widened, “You an to say, neither you nor he is illegitimate.”
“Once a marriage certificate is signed, it’s equivalent to engagent, just lacking the full rituals. If the groom’s family doesn’t retrieve the certificate, it isn’t a canceled engagent, and they can’t marry another. Otherwise, that would be fraudulent marriage and bigamy!” Wufu said aningfully.
Madam Zhou was stunned, murmuring, “I, I…” Had she misunderstood? Had she underestimated her own value?
