“Three children. Two were sold by their own father. Only one is left. He lives in soone else’s dog house, competing with other dogs for food. Lord Clan Leader, this is your descendant. Don’t you think you should say sothing?”
A twitch appears at the corner of the Lord Clan Leader’s mouth.
“Regardless, they are husband and wife. Your Second Sister was legally married to Dong Chang back in the day. If you want us Dong family to release soone, it’s not an issue. Have Dong Chang write a divorce letter and the matter will be resolved!”
“I won’t deny that it was a legal marriage, but my Second Sister is in such a miserable state because of Dong Chang. This matter is on record at the county governnt! We can explain everything to the County Magistrate! If the Dong Family wants to abandon my Second Sister, they have to ask if I, Liu Sisi, agree! They also have to ask if the two constables agree! And they have to ask if the County Magistrate agrees!”
Long Sisi would not give in a bit!
This situation made the Clan Leader quite concerned, “According to you, what do you exactly want to happen?”
“Well, it’s very simple. I hope you, Lord Clan Leader, will preside over this matter and allow these two to divorce, after which they can have nothing to do with each other.”
Liu Sisi revealed her primary aim of today.
“No! Nobody can take my Zhi’er away!”
Dong Chang who was standing beside them imdiately started crying, “I don’t want a divorce, I want Zhi’er, I like Zhi’er…..”
“Enough! Don’t you feel ashad, Dong Chang? Everyone here has been married. Would a man who truly loves a woman sell her to soone else? If you truly loved her, would you sell your own children? Dong Chang, you have no sha in saying such things, and I Liu Sisi, feel embarrassed for you. And you dare to say you love her? A piece of scum like you is not worthy!”
The words of Liu Sisi, both hard and impactful, made everyone around unable to raise their heads.
Even the Clan Leader felt guilty and wanted to say sothing to recover his disadvantage but didn’t find proper words.
“As I said earlier, either let Liu Zhi’er co back, let the husband and wife live happily, or give a divorce letter and they will be strangers ever since.”
“But there’re seven reasons required for divorce, which one of these has my Second Sister violated?”
Liu Sisi’s smile beca even sweeter: “Instead, it’s Dong Chang trading his own wife, this alone is enough to put him in prison for eight to ten years. When he finally gets out, I’m afraid nothing will be the sa, right?”
The corners of Liu Sisi’s mouth curled up, her eyes coldly flashing, her natural and convincingly powerful aura spreading, every inch of her clothing didn’t harbor any trace of a countrywoman.
This contrasted sharply with the unkempt appearance of Liu Zhi’er, who was crying hysterically behind her.
Clan Leader couldn’t help frowning: “They say a gentleman never slings mud when breaking off a friendship. Even if Dong Chang and Liu Zhi’er are to divorce, what about these three children…”
Seeing that the Clan Leader seed to agree, Dong Chang imdiately didn’t bother to pretend to be a good person anymore.
“I’m telling you, Liu Zhi’er. You want to divorce? No way! I, Dong Chang, still want you. Your Liu family should be grateful for that! Who knows if it was you who fell for Old Man Li and willingly ran into his bed? Now you want to dump and send to prison, just so you, the unchaste woman, can go off and live happily ever after with your lover? Keep dreaming!”
Liu Zhi’er was so angry, she was trembling all over. She had never thought Dong Chang could show such a nasty face!
His words just shattered her last trace of hope. She regretted wavering between whether or not to divorce. Looking back now, she felt incredibly naive!
“You, you… Dong Chang! You and Old Man Li sold with a written agreent. I have real evidence! And you dare to deny it now?”
Tears continued to slide down her face as she sobbed uncontrollably: “You tricked into letting my guard down, and while I was asleep, you tied up and handed over to Old Man Li. There are several witnesses to this, you can’t deny it!”
“Enough with your nonsense! Witnesses? Where are these witnesses? If you have the guts, bring them out! Huh!”
Dong Chang said arrogantly.
Anyone who caught his gaze amidst the spectators hastily retreated, not wanting to get involved with such a scoundrel.
Liu Zhi’er’s hopeful gaze scanned through the crowd around her, only to be filled with disappointnt!
“Dong Chang, you bastard!”
“Let tell you, Liu Zhi’er, if you decide to follow ho obediently, I’ll forgive everything in the past. I can even guarantee that I’ll treat you much kinder in the future. Otherwise… Hmph! You should know what I, Dong Chang, am capable of!”
Liu Zhi’er was notoriously faint-hearted, and Dong Chang knew that as long as he persuaded Liu Zhi’er, everything would be easier!
He long ago had Liu Zhi’er all figured out, waiting in hope for the usual result. Yet this ti, he was destined to be disappointed.
“Dong Chang, you bastard! Give back my two precious children, Er Mao and San Mao. It’s all because of my incompetence…. I couldn’t protect you…”
Liu Zhi’er fell to her knees, covering her head as she cried out in agony.
“Enough! Dong Chang, everyone here should be very clear about the kind of person you are!”
Seeing the arrogant Dong Chang and the devastated Liu Zhi’er, Liu Sisi sohow breathed a sigh of relief!
At least in this way, her second sister can leave without any lingering worries.
“Initially, when Dong Chang sold Liu Zhi’er, Old Man Li gave him 3 taels of silver, a bolt of silk and a piece of fine jade. In addition, he promised to give him another 5 taels of silver when the deal was done. Dong Chang took the 3 taels of silver and sold everything that could be sold in the Dong family. Moreover, he also sold Er Mao and San Mao. Where did all that money from selling the two children go?”
The questioning from Liu Sisi continued, causing murmurs among the crowd.
“It’s not news that Dong Chang has been gambling for a long ti. It’s like a bottomless pit, even a mountain of gold and silver would not be enough for him to squander. This ti, he almost cost Liu Zhi’er her life by trying to pawn her. What about next ti? Will there be another so-called ‘stroke of luck’ for her to be saved?”
Stepping forward, Liu Sisi looked straight at the clan leader: “Lord Clan Leader, I implore you to spare my second sister’s life! It is said that saving a life is more ritorious than building a seven-tiered pagoda. Please grant this request.”
As she spoke, she respectfully bowed.
“I appeal to the Lord Clan Leader for justice!”
The clan leader remained silent, seemingly torn.
Soone rushed in from outside the door, whispered sothing into the clan leader’s ear. The clan leader froze, looked at Liu Sisi in a shock, then nodded slightly and waved his hand. The person then quickly rushed out.
The clan leader sighed: “Indeed, it’s Dong Chang’s own fault! As the clan leader, I will personally dispense justice for you today. Let Dong Chang and Liu Zhi’er divorce, and from then on, they will go their separate ways!”
