Chapter 282
"Since we're here, let's go and see our son-in-law — — oh no, Second Young Master Shi! I believe that he is blessed with good fortune and will be able to turn misfortune into blessing! " Old Master Zhou saw his wife smiling and circling around his daughter, forgetting that he was here to visit his son-in-law. Even though he was no longer their son-in-law, he still had to do his part, didn't he?
"Ah? Yes, yes, yes! Look at my memory! "Old Mistress Zhou slapped her forehead and laughed.
"There's no need!" Second Lord Shi and his wife said at the same time.
"I don't think there's a need for that, we'll accept your kind intentions!" Second Lord Shi's heart was filled with annoyance.
"Yes! Fengming is sick, it won't be a small matter if he gets infected, let's not go! " Second Old Mistress Shi thought that her son would not be willing to see his parents-in-law, so she stopped them with a smile.
Old Master Zhou and Madam Zhou originally did not have a strong desire to visit Shi Fengming, but they had to mention it out of politeness. Since his parents were unwilling, they were happy to save themselves the trouble, so they said a few polite words and left the stage.
"Father, Mother! Wait here, I'll go and bid farewell to Second Young Master, "Zhou Jingyi suddenly said.
"I don't think there's a need!" Second Old Mistress Shi smiled, "Didn't you just come from there? What's there to bid farewell for! "
"That's right, Xiao Yi," Old Mistress Zhou added, "There's no need to do so! Be obedient! "
"Mother!" Zhou Jingyi insisted, "Mother, please grant me my wish! Mother-In-Law — — Second Old Mistress Shi, please grant me my wish! I only want to see him once, I'll leave after saying a few words! "
Old Mistress Zhou knew her daughter's temperament, she did not want to go against her wishes and cause any more trouble at the last moment, so she nodded and said, "If that's the case, then go! Come back after saying a few words, we still have to hurry home! "
Second Old Mistress Shi thought to herself, What's the big deal in this last moment? If she wants to be rebuffed, then so be it! If I keep stopping her, then I'll be the one being unreasonable! So she smiled and agreed.
Zhou Jin Yi curtsied and thanked him. She turned around and left. As for the divorce papers and dowry, she did not care at all. With her parents around, they would take care of it.
When he heard that his father-in-law and mother-in-law were here, Shi Fengming felt a little guilty. He was afraid that his mother-in-law would come and scold him. That shrewish woman would not only scold him, she would even dare to hit him! Wouldn't it be embarrassing if he couldn't even hide?
Shi Fengming was feeling uneasy and anxious. Suddenly, he saw Zhou Jingyi walk in. He quickly looked behind her. There was no one else. Only then did he secretly heave a sigh of relief. "Your parents have gone back?"
Zhou Jin Yi's already cold heart turned even colder. Her mouth was filled with bitterness. He really hated his own family to the extreme. The moment he opened his mouth, he asked if his parents had returned. Was he that eager for them to leave?
Zhou Jingyi shook her head. "They won't come over, don't worry! We'll leave soon! "
When Shi Fengming heard that they wouldn't come over, he was completely relieved. However, when he heard the last sentence, he raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at her. "Did I hear wrongly? What do you mean? "
Zhou Jingyi stood in front of him and forced a smile. She said, "My parents and your parents have discussed it. We'll divorce. I'll go back with my parents today! In the future, hehe, I won't be in front of you to annoy you anymore. You should be satisfied now! I think it'll be good for your illness too! Second Young Master, take care! "
Zhou Jingyi had these words in her heart several times along the way. She thought that she could say it calmly, but she didn't expect that every word that came out was like a knife cutting through her heart. Her heart was in pain. Before she could finish speaking, tears had already filled her eyes. She quickly lowered her head and blinked, biting her lip and trying to hold it in.
Shi Fengming was completely stunned. His heart was blank. Divorce? She was leaving? Leaving now? He had indeed been looking forward to this day. However, when this moment really came, he was at a loss. He suddenly felt at a loss.
Zhou Jingyi saw that he didn't have any reaction. He didn't even say a word. Her heart ached even more. The tears that she tried to hold back could no longer be controlled. She started to sob.
She quickly turned her back to him and covered her face with both hands to suppress her sobs. "I'm leaving! You must get better. Take care! "
Zhou Jingyi couldn't stay any longer. She turned around and ran out. She didn't want to lose her composure in front of him. It would only increase his disgust. At this moment, she really hated herself for being so useless! She liked him. She liked him so much, but what was the use!
Shi Fengming didn't say anything. He just stared blankly at the door where she disappeared. He was still a little dumbfounded by what happened just now. He couldn't believe that it was real! In the morning, when she stared at him drinking his medicine, he was still secretly angry. He couldn't wait for her to leave. However, when she really left, he …
Shi Fengming's heart skipped a beat. He subconsciously clenched his fists. She really left. In the future, he would never see her again! Was he happy? He didn't know! He retracted his gaze and stared at the bright and charming hibiscus flowers in front of him. He suddenly felt that the bright colors of the flowers were burning his eyes, making him feel very uncomfortable. As the wind blew, the petals of the blooming flowers rustled and fell to the ground silently, scattering all over the ground.
The Shi family's Second Old Master and his wife couldn't bear to delay their daughter-in-law's youth. When their son was terminally ill, they insisted on divorcing their daughter-in-law. Their daughter-in-law, Madam Zhou, couldn't bear to part with her and cried bitterly. Everyone in the household was moved to tears. However, under her mother-in-law's persuasion, she finally got on the carriage and left with her parents. When people heard about it, they couldn't help but sigh and praise. First, they praised the Shi family's Second Old Master and his wife for being righteous. Second, they praised Madam Zhou's love for her family.
After sending off the Zhou family, the Shi Family regained its peace. However, everyone had their own thoughts. Gu Fangzi disagreed in her heart. She thought that Zhou Jingyi was really a fool. Even with the support of her family, she couldn't even win against a prostitute and ended up in such a state. She was pitiful and deserved it! Sang Wan was also very sad. She didn't expect things to end up like this. Zhou Jingyi's heart-wrenching cries still echoed in her ears. She could see that she really couldn't bear to leave, but she had no choice but to take this step! Shi Fengming had really let her down!
In the carriage, Zhou Jingyi was still sobbing. Her voice was choked with sobs, her cheeks were red, and her chest was throbbing with pain.
Old Mistress Zhou's heart ached. She helped her wipe her tears and gently patted her back. She sighed and persuaded, "Alright, alright, don't cry! Look at you, it's just an act. Why are you crying so hard? It's all in the past. Be good, don't cry! "
Zhou Jingyi didn't explain. She laid in her mother's arms and sobbed for a while before she stopped crying. She was tired from crying and fell asleep. Old Mistress Zhou sighed and pitied her. She carefully hugged her daughter and made her more comfortable before gently wiping away her tears. Looking at her daughter's sleeping face, she felt warmth in her heart. Her daughter finally belonged to her again. She wouldn't let her suffer any more grievances.
After sending the Zhou family off, Second Old Mistress Shi went to Bi Luo Pavilion with a smile. She dismissed the servants and said to Fengming with a smile, "Fengming, the Zhou family has finally left. From now on, they have nothing to do with our family anymore! Hehe, you don't have to pretend to be sick anymore. Just bear with it for a few more days and this matter will be over! Mother will find a good marriage partner for you. I guarantee that you'll be satisfied! Fengming, this time, Mother won't act on my own. If you don't like someone, we'll find another one! There are many good ladies in Qingzhou City, there's bound to be one that you'll like! When you have a family again, you can live your life well! If there's anyone outside that you like, feel free to take her in. As long as you're happy, anything is fine! "
Second Old Mistress Shi spoke and laughed. Her face was full of smiles as she looked forward to the future.
However, Shi Fengming's heart became frustrated and he said impatiently, "Enough, Mother! I'm not in the mood for that now. Let's talk about it later! "
Marry again? Of course, he would marry again! However, he felt that he was lacking in interest. Wasn't it just like that? It was the same no matter who he married. As long as it was a woman that was barely pleasing to his eyes, he wouldn't have any objections!
"Yes, yes, yes. Of course, it has to be later! No one would look for a marriage partner right after Zhou Shi left. Mother will secretly keep an eye out for you. You can get married next year! "Second Old Mistress Shi chuckled.
"We'll talk about it later!" Shi Fengming said lazily. He couldn't help but ask, "The Zhou family — — left just like that?"
Second Old Mistress Shi scoffed, "What else do they want? I've given them enough face! Don't worry about Mother's work. After today, they won't be able to come and cause trouble! Hehe, speaking of which, Zhou Shi is quite interesting. She cried so hard that it looked like she was really crying! That woman, I didn't expect her to be so good at acting! "
Shi Fengming subconsciously trembled, "She cried?"
Second Old Mistress Shi chuckled, "You're talking nonsense again! How can she not cry? If she doesn't cry, won't it seem like she abandoned her sick husband and was heartless? "
Shi Fengming did not speak. The scene of her tears and her suppressed cries when she said goodbye to him flashed in front of his eyes. He knew that she wasn't acting. Even Mother said so. It could be seen how sad she was at that time. Was he really worth it? This woman was really silly! She was so silly that it made him feel a little apologetic and uneasy.
"Mother, you should go back first. I want to be alone for a while!" Shi Fengming listened to his mother's long-winded nagging. She was either saying that Zhou Shi was bad or finding another marriage for him. He couldn't help but feel a little annoyed.
Seeing that, Second Old Mistress Shi stopped talking and smiled, "Okay, okay, okay. Then you should rest! This time, there won't be anyone causing trouble in front of you. I'm sure you'll be in a better mood! Son, just bear with it for a few more days and it'll be done! "
"I know. You should go now!" Shi Fengming became even more impatient.
"You child! Look at you! "Second Old Mistress Shi chuckled and got up to leave. As long as her son was well and he could marry a daughter-in-law that she was satisfied with, she really had nothing else to ask for!
