"Hearing you say this, I feel relieved. Dongi is a good child. The girls of the Hu family are all impressive." The clan leader nodded, "As long as our people act upright and decently, the children of the Hu family are outstanding."
As long as there is no impact on the family’s reputation, he wouldn’t interfere.
In the Hu family, Yang Liu specially tidied up Dongi’s room from before she got married.
"Dongi, you will live in this room from now on, just like before you got married. This will always be your ho."
"Sis..."
Hu Dongi never expected that her parents and siblings would stand by her side so firmly, and they didn’t despise her even after the divorce.
At first, she was very afraid.
After all, when a daughter gets married, she loses her ho. Her natal family treats her like a guest, and her husband’s family treats her like an outsider.
Unexpectedly, upon hearing of her grievances, her natal family fully supported her.
"Don’t overthink." Yang Liu held Dongi’s hand, "Stay ho comfortably. As long as we have food, you won’t go hungry. You will always be our sister."
These words brought tears to Dongi’s eyes.
How fortunate she was that even after marrying an unpleasant person, her family still valued her.
"Don’t cry. Your health is already not good. If you cry more, Mother will think I bullied you." Yang Liu hurriedly pulled out her handkerchief to wipe Dongi’s tears and whispered in her ear, "Stay at ho and take good care of yourself. Stay healthy and chubby, and then Sister-in-law will personally find you a handso and capable man to marry. Have ten or eight sons with him, and then see who dares to look down on you."
"Sister-in-law!"
These words truly scared Hu Dongi.
Her face turned red.
She just got divorced today, and Sister-in-law talks about such things?
The words were so... really embarrassing.
"You are just too honest. Sister-in-law really didn’t know you had to live this way before." Yang Liu got angrier the more she thought about it. Three whole years, that man who doesn’t deserve to be called a man was so cruel to Dongi, and Dongi had to endure insults and humiliation from his mother. The more she thought about it, the angrier she beca. And the angrier she got the more...
Wait, no, what did the three brothers say just now?
It was almost dark, and they told her to take good care of Dongi, afraid Dongi couldn’t think straight and sothing would happen.
The three brothers went out.
These two brothers were going to...
Yang Liu guessed right.
Hu Dongsheng was not soone who let things go easily.
He found out that Fang Chenggang almost every day went to the small tavern in town to have a drink and wouldn’t return ho until dusk.
But today, almost at dusk, after drinking too much, Fang Chenggang staggered ho, and tripped over sothing, knocking out two of his front teeth.
Soon after, he felt sothing hit his head, and he blacked out.
When people passing by found him, his entire body was covered in bruises.
Yet he couldn’t rember what happened, what he had suffered.
Moreover, he lay in bed for ten days before he could get up.
"If it weren’t for the price of murder being too high, I’d have him chopped up as dog feed."
Hu Dongsheng whispered to his two younger brothers, "Even though our family lacks money and influence, Dongi is our sister, the sister we’ve cherished since childhood. Why should she be bullied like this by him?"
"Big brother, don’t worry. We will protect our sister from now on."
"I heard Dongi wants to go work for that young mistress as a maid?"
Hu Dongsheng was a bit worried, "Our aunt’s family works for the young mistress too, but does Dongi want to go there?"
"Dongi probably makes sense. In troubled tis like these, relying on a powerful figure might be a path forward."
"Indeed, if it weren’t for that young mistress, Dongi would have suffered more at the Fang family."
"So should we let her go?"
"We still don’t know if the young mistress agrees."
At the estate, Chun Nuan looked at Aunt Zhong and sighed, wondering why soone would choose servitude over freedom.
This Dongi sure is persistent.
"Since she wants to co to the estate, let her. I’m not lacking staff right now, but the estate is big, there will be tasks suitable for her. Arrange it as you see fit."
"Thank you, young mistress, for agreeing."
Chun Nuan... couldn’t understand why soone would express such gratitude when they were offering servitude.
Dongi’s wish ca true as she arrived at the estate and beca the young mistress’s maid. Aunt Zhong didn’t know where to place her, so she sent her to the school to clean and serve tea.
Dongi then discovered that the young mistress was teaching apprentices — teaching them how to treat female patients.
The young mistress was nothing short of saintly.
