Chapter 671: Chapter 672: Extra – Trouble with the Authorities_1
Zhao Danggui felt her pride was on the line, “Muniang, what exactly are you doing, I just—”
“What are you looking for
for after coming to Qinghua City? Mom and dad are in the fruit shop to the east of the city, just go there yourself.” Muniang cut her off directly, showing so impatience.
A person like Zhao Danggui should not be given the slightest bit of leeway, or she’d imdiately start acting above her station. Muniang really couldn’t stand her. She could still give her so face in front of their parents, but privately she didn’t want anything to do with her at all.
Zhao Danggui had no choice but to say, “Let’s go inside to talk then, it’s so inconvenient out here.”
“If you don’t speak now, I’m going in.”
Zhao Danggui gritted her teeth before finally saying, “My, my, my marital family, seeing the current good situation, wants to open a shop.”
“So what? What’s that got to do with ?”
Zhao Danggui tried to grab Muniang’s hand but was dodged. She said sheepishly, “We’re short so money.”
Muniang laughed and said, “Short so money? Zhao Danggui, are you asking
for money?”
“It’s not good to ask from dad. Aside from giving us so living expenses each month, he is not willing to give any more.”
Muniang scoffed coldly, “If he gave more, wouldn’t you just squander it all the sa? Now you even sound resentful toward your father. A married daughter still relying on her parent’s house for support—don’t you feel ashad saying this?”
“But this ti it’s different. My husband really wants to do business properly. If we make money, we won’t have to trouble dad anymore,” Zhao Danggui stated word by word.
“Don’t tell
these reasons, go ask your father. I won’t give you a single copper coin!”
“Qiao Muniang! I’m serious this ti.”
“You think I’m not serious?” Muniang raised an eyebrow.
Zhao Danggui said anxiously, “The Wang family said if I can’t raise the money, they’ll divorce !”
Muniang curled her lips in a smile, “Oh, then congratulations, big sister, on regaining your single status. Make sure to open your eyes wider and find soone reliable when you remarry.”
Zhao Danggui was so angry she was about to explode, “I already have a bunch of kids; what remarrying crap! Qiao Muniang, quit your slick talk with . Just tell
whether you’re giving the money or not. Let
tell you, if the Wang family divorces , where do you think I’ll go? I’ll return to the Zhao family! By that ti, can you be sure your mom and your brother will be okay?” Zhao Danggui’s words carried a threat.
Muniang’s eyes shone sharply, “What do you an by that?”
Zhao Danggui beca smug, “Once I am divorced, do you really think my father will just ignore it? He will naturally take
back ho. By then, do you really think your mother can outmatch ?”
Muniang’s hand hidden in her sleeve clenched tightly, a clear sign she wanted to hit soone, but she ultimately held back, her eyes growing colder, “Just you try, and I’ll make sure you die without knowing how it ca to be!”
Having said that, she no longer paid attention to Zhao Danggui and directly strode into the residence. Zhao Danggui wanted to follow, but the young servant guarding the gate stopped her and promptly closed the door. Zhao Danggui, furious, stomped her feet and cursed for a good while.
In the end, she could only walk away resentfully. She had originally thought that by using Mrs. Lin to threaten her, she would surely comply, but to her surprise, Qiao Muniang was really unafraid of anything. This woman was simply not normal!
Muniang, however, was not afraid of nothing; she didn’t want Zhao Danggui to return to the Zhao Family at all. Zhao Danggui’s actions today served as a reminder, and she imdiately instructed Qingya, “Go to Qingcheng and convey my words to the Wang family, tell them that whether Wang Fuqiang is dead or disabled, they must not divorce Zhao Danggui, or the Wang family can forget about the Zhao family’s money! They also shouldn’t think about using a divorce to threaten . If they dare to make this move, I’m sure the first ones to suffer will be their family!”
Is the Wang family not just living off the fifty taels of silver provided by Zhao Song each month? Otherwise, with that wastrel Wang Fuqiang, they would’ve been begging on the streets long ago.
Zhao Song providing Zhao Danggui with money did not have Muniang’s strong opposition. After all, she was their own daughter, and they needed to ensure she was not too miserable, right? So this had always been the norm.
The Wang family must also be aware that without Zhao Danggui, how would they survive?
Qingya conveyed this ssage to the ears of the Wang family, and they were furious. Zhao Danggui actually told her own family that they wanted to divorce her! They had never said such a thing; Zhao Danggui was like a cash cow for them, how could they afford to lose her?
After being discarded by Muniang, Zhao Danggui clenched her teeth and went to see Zhao Song, ntioning Wang Fuqiang’s desire to open a shop, and was indeed scolded by Zhao Song.
“He wants to open a shop with that behavior! Do you think too highly of him, or do you think your father has beco more gullible? The first thing he would do with the money is either go gambling or visit prostitutes! Providing you with monthly silver is already the greatest leniency on my part. And now, you overstep even that, do you truly want to force
to sever this father-daughter relationship?” Zhao Song was really infuriated, and Zhao Danggui was scared to death by his words, imdiately crying and begging for forgiveness. It was not easy to calm Zhao Song’s anger, and her heart was also troubled, knowing it was a loss.
Wang Fuqiang was so adamant about opening a shop, and now she was unable to bring the money back, he was sure to lose his temper again. Zhao Danggui felt a headache just thinking about it, but when she returned, she found Wang Fuqiang was not just in a temper, but utterly enraged, slapping her across the face as soon as she entered, knocking her senseless.
“Look at you, shaless wretch, even thinking of moving back to your mother’s ho? You despise the burden of the Wang family, don’t you? Hoping I’ll divorce you so you can go back ho and enjoy a carefree life? Let
tell you, in your dreams! In this life, you’ll never step out of the Wang family’s door!” Wang Fuqiang yelled fiercely.
Zhao Danggui was not one to be trifled with; regaining her senses, she reached for Wang Fuqiang’s face, “You heartless thing, I worked my mind off to raise money for you, and you dare treat
like this? Today, I will make sure you pay with your life; how dare you hit ! I’ll scratch you to death!”
Both spouses were fierce fighters, and a scuffle ensued between them, neighbors couldn’t pull them apart, and even the governnt office was alerted. Only when the governnt officers drew their swords did they realize fear.
Muniang initially just wanted Qingya to deliver a warning; she had not expected it to cause such a commotion. She couldn’t help but feel a schadenfreude.
“They even caused a scene at the governnt office? This is serious.”
“Isn’t it? I heard that they continued fighting in the governnt office. Zhao Danggui was clamoring for a separation and the Wang family wouldn’t agree to either a separation or divorce. Since the man didn’t ntion divorce, the woman has no right to demand it. In the end, it was rely diated a bit, and they were sent back ho. Later, Zhao Danggui was so infuriated that she started fighting with Wang Fuqiang in the governnt office again. The governnt official was angry and directly ordered twenty beatings for each. Now they’re quiet, neither spouse can stand up anyway.”
