Chapter 496: 496: Besieged on All Sides (Part 5)
Joyful Motherhood in a Rural Family
âI didnât! I really didnât harm her, you have to believe me!â
Ms. Zhao roared in exhaustion.
âYou didnât kill Brother Ren, but Brother Ren died because of you. Her death is hard for you to escape responsibility! Hmph!â
Elderly Mr. Di finished speaking, coldly snorted, then entered the room with his crutch, ignoring Ms. Zhao behind him.
Ms. Zhao desperately knocked on the door, crying loudly: âOld man! Old man, how can you be so cruelâ¦â
âStop howling, itâs no use.â
Behind her, a lazy voice came, but it suddenly ignited a glint of hope in Ms. Zhaoâs eyes.
She suddenly turned around, threw herself in front of Liu Sisi, grabbed her collar, and violently shook her.
âDo you have a way? You must have a way? Please tell me, tell me what the way is! Tell me quicklyâ¦â
She shook Liu Sisiâs body crazily, not stopping, making Liu Sisiâs head dizzy.
Ms. Gao and Granny Hu were behind them, shocked and hurriedly came forward to grab Liu Sisi.
Granny Hu forcefully pulled Ms. Zhaoâs arm, shouting angrily: âHey! What are you doing? Let go of our Madam! Let go, Madamâ¦â
Ms. Gao also cried out in panic: âMadam! Old Madam, please let go, Old Madamâ¦â
Liu Sisi was furious!
The feeling of being grabbed and almost lifted by the collar made her subconsciously raise her foot and kick Ms. Zhao in the lower abdomen.
Ms. Zhao felt a sudden pain in her lower abdomen!
Instinctively releasing her grip and covering her stomach, she let out a miserable scream.
Ms. Gao and Granny Hu took the opportunity to pull Ms. Zhaoâs hand away, finally saving Liu Sisi.
Liu Sisi coughed several times, her face tearful and panting heavily.
Unexpectedly, while Ms. Zhao looked weak, her grip was surprisingly strong, nearly tearing Liu Sisiâs collar.
Elderly Mr. Di, who had originally entered the room, heard the commotion outside and opened the door to look out, seeing the situation in front of him, and immediately became furious!
âYou troublemaker, get out of here! Get out! Youâre not welcome here!â
He raised his crutch and waved it several times, scaring Liu Sisi into quickly holding onto his arm.
âDad, donât be angry! She didnât mean toâ¦â
Ms. Zhao then realized that her actions were too aggressive and stood there with no idea what to do.
âI⦠I really didnât mean it, not on purposeâ¦â
Elderly Mr. Di was so angry that he panted, pointed at her and yelled: âLast time you âaccidentallyâ⦠took away her life, this time youâre ânot on purposeâ again, how many more people do you want to harm? Get out! What sins did I, Di Defu, commit in my previous life⦠to have remarried you, such a⦠troublemaker! Get out, get out of here!â
He spoke brokenly, raising his crutch to strike her several times.
âI wonât leave! If you beat me to death, I wonât leave!â Ms. Zhao stood stubbornly, taking several blows from him.
âFine, you wonât leave? Iâll write a divorce letter, and divorce you, poisonous woman!â
Liu Sisi could see that Elderly Mr. Di was determined to divorce his wife.
Ms. Zhao was also determined. She refused to leave after being beaten by Elderly Mr. Di, and instead threw herself at his feet, firmly holding onto his thigh and refusing to let go.
âGo ahead, hit me! Hit me to death! Anyway, I donât want to live anymore. When I die, Iâll go apologize to my cousin. Itâs my fault, Iâm sorry for her, I was possessed by evil thoughts at that moment⦠Old man! If you really divorce me, you might as well give me a rope, so I can go hang myself from a crooked-necked tree. Old manâ¦â
Ms. Zhao cried with snot and tears, and she knew this was her last chance.
Elderly Mr. Di tried to retract his foot, but after several attempts, he couldnât pull his thigh out. He closed his eyes in pain, and eventually couldnât bring himself to hit her with his crutch anymore. He turned his head away and refused to speak.
Liu Sisi was watching it all closely.
It wasnât that her father-in-law had no feelings for Ms. Zhao â perhaps he was just disappointed with her?
Indeed, Ms. Zhaoâs mistake was unintentional!
But the punishment she deserved couldnât be spared. Otherwise, she might commit the same mistake again and harm the child in her stomach!
A glint flashed in her eyes, and a plan formed in her heart.
âFather! It was unintentional for my mother-in-law just now. Since she knows her mistake, I believe we should give her a chance to repent,â said Liu Sisi softly, a shallow smile on her face, making people feel comfortable at first glance.
âYes, yes, yes! Sisi is right, old man! I really know Iâm wrong, please have mercy and forgive me! Iâll never dare again, I really know Iâm wrong!â Ms. Zhao enthusiastically agreed with Liu Sisi, nodding her head constantly.
Elderly Mr. Di sighed in resignation.
Ever since Liu Sisi married into the Di Family, the familyâs days have only gotten better. Naturally, he was satisfied with his daughter-in-law.
But to let him simply forgive Ms. Zhao â not to mention others â even he couldnât overcome his feelings.
âSisi, you donât know⦠she⦠this woman is just a headache. You should ask for mercy for her, and father should give you a favor. But⦠sigh! Donât plead for her. Sheâs not worth it!â
Elderly Mr. Di refused for the first time, turning his head to look away from his daughter-in-law.
Liu Sisiâs gaze quickly swept over Ms. Zhaoâs face, watching her expression drain of color. Sisi felt joy in her heart.
Now you know itâs not easy, huh? What were you doing before?n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
However, for the sake of Di Yeleiâs reputation, Elderly Mr. Di and Ms. Zhao must not divorce or be abandoned.
âFather, hear me out! After I finish speaking, if you still think that what I said wonât work, we can think of something else, okay?â
After struggling for a long time, Elderly Mr. Di sighed deeply and nodded his head.
âFine, go ahead and speak.â
Ms. Zhao gratefully looked at Liu Sisi, who silently sneered at her.
Father-in-law is right! Itâs true that Ms. Zhao didnât kill mother-in-law, but mother-in-law died because of her! How can she let her off so easily?
How to make up for all the suffering Ye Lei has endured since childhood?
She will make her pay back everything that she owes, one by one!
Her mouth slowly raised, bringing up two shallow dimples, her eyes sweeping over Ms. Zhao on the ground before she raised her head and smiled at her father-in-law.
âFather, this is what I think: Since mother-in-law also knows that it was her wrongdoing back then, why not let herâ¦â
