Prefect Chen was so furious he felt dizzy, and with his hangover not yet cleared, his stomach was terribly uncomfortable...
He had intended to sleep soundly and then have something to eat when the Yun family had their midday meal. Who would have thought this prodigal wife would start arguing with others?
“Get back into the house, quickly!” Prefect Chen grabbed her and pulled. His brows were furrowed so tightly they could have crushed a fly.
Madam Huang didn’t budge. Wrinkling her nose, she shouted, “No, what are you doing? What are you trying to do? Your own wife is being bullied to death, and not only are you not speaking up for me, but you’re also scolding me. Chen Junshan, are you even human? Wuwu!”
Prefect Chen: “……”
He knew better than anyone what kind of woman this prodigal wife was.
In the past, Madam Huang had desperately wanted Jinshan to become a live-in son-in-law, but the Yun family adamantly refused.
Later, when she learned that Jinshan was involved with the Prefect’s daughter, she felt even more uneasy…
Now, Madam Huang had fallen out with Yun Sanman. Originally, Gao Jingde and Xiaoran were a good match, but now she had ruined it. httpδ:/m.kuAisugg.nět
This prodigal wife was truly a jinx…
“If you keep making noise and crying, don’t blame me for not showing you respect!” Prefect Chen said with a stern face.
You could throw a tantrum on the street and no one would bother you, but you absolutely must not quarrel with the Yun family. Didn’t you see the Emperor standing on the steps watching?
Madam Huang didn’t recognize the Emperor at all. She felt she was being bullied and needed to vent her frustration…
“Yun Laosan, you sincerely apologize to me today, and this matter will be considered over. Otherwise, I’ll scratch you to death!” Madam Huang threatened loudly.
Yun Sanman: “……”
How could the dignified Prefect’s wife be like a shrew?
Erman and Sister-in-law Shanshan had only just gotten married on their first day, and she was already causing trouble. How inauspicious!
“Why should I apologize to you?” Yun Sanman said, crossing his arms. “You insulted Fang’er first. If anyone should apologize, it’s you first…”
“Fine, you ungrateful wretch, you’re really asking for it!” Madam Huang cursed and lunged forward.
Yun Sanman was tall and strong, so she dared not confront him. But Shangguan Fang’er was thin and small, and Madam Huang could easily overpower her.
Before Yun Sanman could step forward to stop her, Prefect Chen kicked her…
With a scream, Madam Huang fell face-first, scraping her palms.
Little Xi Tian breathed a sigh of relief. What was the point of all this?
Knowing she was in the wrong, she still caused such a commotion, as if she were afraid no one would know she was the Prefect’s wife…
“Ah! Wuwuwu, I can’t live anymore, you’re all bullying me, I can’t live anymore, wuwu!” Madam Huang sat cross-legged on the ground and began to cry loudly.
Emperor Cheng frowned and asked the eunuch Zhao beside him, “Who is this lady? Why does she dare to make such a scene at the Yun family’s?”
Eunuch Zhao sighed and whispered, “She doesn’t really have any special background. Her family is in business and has some money. Moreover, Prefect Chen has been close to the Yun family in recent years, so she feels the Yun family is benefiting from Prefect Chen’s influence and is here to demand favors…”
Emperor Cheng couldn’t help but laugh when he heard this. “As far as I know, all the glory of the Yun family was earned through their own efforts. What right does she have to demand favors?”
Coincidentally, Madam Huang overheard this.
Before Eunuch Zhao could reply, Madam Huang scrambled to her feet and pointed at Emperor Cheng, yelling, “Hey, you old geezer, what are you muttering about over there?”
Everyone: “……”
What was originally a simple matter had been made increasingly complicated by her.
Now that she had offended the Emperor, let’s see how she would resolve it.
Little Xi Tian sighed and pulled Yun Daman towards the exit. “Big brother, let’s go deliver milk!”
“Oh, okay, you go call Jinshan, and I’ll go hitch the carriage!” Yun Daman said with a smile.
It was better for his parents to handle such matters; he shouldn’t interfere…
If Madam Huang continued to pester them endlessly, Yun Daman would directly kick her out.
“Mm-hmm, I got it, big brother!” Little Xi Tian nodded and ran into the study with her short legs.
Yun Jinshan was scheduled to take the provincial examination in the spring, so he had to concentrate on his studies recently.
Seeing his little aunt run in, Yun Jinshan quickly closed his storybook and smiled, “Little aunt, why have you come…”
Little Xi Tian glanced at the thick storybook on the table and rolled her eyes. “Good, you little rascal, how can you be so careless? Is it easy for your parents to support your studies?”
“Little aunt, I, I…”
“Give it here!” Little Xi Tian extended her small hand. “You can read it after you pass the provincial examination!”
Yun Jinshan dared not disobey his little aunt and obediently handed over the storybook.
Little Xi Tian flipped through a few pages and couldn’t help but comment, “Wow, so this is where you learned your skills in wooing girls. No wonder Sister Yiyi likes you so much!”
Yun Jinshan: “……”
No, no, my great-nephew, I’m naturally charming. I just have to stand there, and girls will come to strike up a conversation.
“Get ready, big brother is going to take you to the county town!” Little Xi Tian said.
Yun Jinshan nodded and was about to say something when he heard a piercing wail from the courtyard.
Little Xi Tian: “……”
Can’t they just be quiet for a moment?
She ran out and saw Prefect Chen holding a piece of paper, on which he had written the words ‘divorce letter’. Then, he spat on it and stuck the paper directly onto Madam Huang’s forehead.
There was no content on the paper, only the words ‘divorce letter’. It was evident that Prefect Chen had nothing more to say to this prodigal wife…
“Take this divorce letter and get lost. If you dare to make any more noise, I’ll break your teeth. Get out!” Prefect Chen shouted.
This wretched woman actually dared to scold the Emperor. Did she not want to live?
If the Emperor, in his rage, decided to chop off his head, he wouldn’t even have anyone to cry to.
Madam Huang cried even harder, “Wuwuwu, you can’t divorce me! You were able to become a prefect back then because my father spent money to bribe officials and pave the way for you. You can’t be ungrateful, wuwu!”
Everyone: “……”
Good heavens, with that outburst, she had clearly revealed Prefect Chen’s bribery of officials.
If this wasn’t being a prodigal, what was?
Even if the Emperor wasn’t present, it would have been easier to handle. But now that he had heard this, could he just ignore it?
It’s over, everything is ruined.
Prefect Chen was struck by lightning. He grabbed Madam Huang by the collar and dragged her towards the main gate. “I don’t have a prodigal wife like you. Go back, pack your things quickly, and get as far away as possible…”
“Wuwu, Mother, Father, please don’t argue anymore, wuwu…” Chen Xiaoran, terrified, burst into tears and clung to Prefect Chen, refusing to let go.
Prefect Chen’s eyes were bloodshot. He turned and glared at Chen Xiaoran. “Xiaoran, your father and I are divorcing. Who do you plan to stay with?”
He had expected Chen Xiaoran to choose her father without hesitation. But unexpectedly, she suddenly stopped crying. “I… I’ll stay with neither of you. I want to live in the Yun family forever!”
Prefect Chen: “……”
