Chapter 255: Useless
Xie Niushan felt aggrieved too.
He knew that he had already treated this woman well. He had agreed to take care of Pei Wanyue, the daughter who came for free without even thinking about it. He had even thought of putting that girl under his family name like a cuckold!
Ms. Lu had all the family fortune in her hands. She had spent more and saved less. Xie Niushan said nothing about it!
Now that he thought about it, the only thing that he did not do for them was catching the stars and moon in the sky. However, it turned out this woman was ungrateful!
He knew what kind of person he was. He was incapable of educating his children, nor did he expect Ms. Lu to be better than him. As long as it was not too much, he could tolerate it.
However, she should have a bottom line.
To put it bluntly, if she was targeting that brat Xie Pinggang, he would not be so angry.
His eldest daughter was different. She was already a short-lived child. Ms. Peng had risked her life to leave this seed behind. He should have pampered her properly. If not for her wretched fate, she would not have been raised in the Taoist temple for so many years!
There were only a few people in his life that he was afraid of.
Ms. Peng was one of them.
If Xie Qiao was killed by this woman, he would not be able to sleep well in the future!
“Well… let’s do this. If you’re not willing to leave, then we can only follow Pinggang’s plan to keep you at home. We can learn from those big families and build a small temple hall. We can lock you in there for life. I feel that it is no different from raising animals. I’m afraid that you won’t be able to stand it either. We might as well let you leave. Although it would ruin your reputation, it won’t hinder you from living your life!” Xie Niushan said, he felt troubled.
It was not easy to get a wife, and in the blink of an eye, it was gone.
However, he could not possibly not have a wife by his side, right?
He was not a monk. In the dead of night, he had to do something to feel better, right?
Xie Niushan frowned.
Ms. Lu originally thought that Xie Niushan was joking to scare her, but now, seeing him so serious, she really panicked.
“Master! It’s that girl who bullied me! As a stepmother, why can’t I even enter her courtyard?! It’s her who pointed the crossbow at me, it’s me who almost died!” Ms. Lu immediately shrieked.
“I’ve told you many times! You’re not allowed to enter her courtyard! Pinghuai and Xi’er usually don’t go over, why did you have to go there?! Do you really think I’m dumb?!” Xie Niushan was furious, “I’ll get people to prepare the divorce papers!”
After saying that, he snorted and left in rage.
Ms. Lu was left dumbfounded, “He wants a divorce?! He actually wants to divorce me for that wretched girl?! How am I supposed to live?!”
Ms. Lu’s tears instantly flowed down like a steam.
“Mother! Don’t cry, it’s useless to cry now!” Pei Wanyue quickly grabbed Ms. Lu’s hand, “You can choose not to divorce. You have been back to the capital for some time now. Perhaps during this period of time, you’re already pregnant with Uncle Xie’s child in your belly? Let’s get through these few days. If you coax him properly, he might change his mind!” Pei Wanyue quickly said.
Other than this, she did not know what else to do.
If her mother divorced, the two of them would have no backing in the future.
Pei Wanyue was in a daze.
Could it be that she could only rely on the Xie family? The Xie family was too unreasonable!
“That’s right! A child…” Ms. Lu quickly clutched her stomach. Then, she felt a little hopeless, “Back then, I couldn’t give birth to a child at the Pei family. Now that I’m in the Xie family… How could I possibly have a child?!”
Ms. Lu cried and sobbed until Pei Wanyue was annoyed and frustrated.
“It’s all because of you! You’ve been in this family for so long, and your status is even worse than Xie Qiao’s! Which madam of the family is as useless as you?!” Pei Wanyue said angrily.
Her face was also somewhat dispirited.
Ms. Lu looked at her in shock, “I’m useless? If it wasn’t for you, h-how would I have ended up like this?!”
