A family with three widows, after severing ties with relatives, she became wealthy and married into

Chapter 26 Today was just a misunderstanding

"My eldest sister has been married into the Chu family for three years and has given birth to two children."

"she..."

"She killed my son, and that's the reason my Chu family is divorcing her!" Downstairs, Manager Chu and Madam Chu pushed through the crowd and squeezed in.

The speaker was Madam Chu.

She raised her head and said, "Mrs. Tian, ​​didn't we agree that you would never set foot in the Chu family again? You would never appear in front of Chu Qian and Chu Yao?!"

"You've changed your mind now?!"

Tian Tian slowly walked to the railing and looked down.

Madam Chu looked up, her face full of resentment!

She lost her son, and Tian Tian sympathized with her.

But she knew perfectly well why her son died, yet she insisted on blaming it on her eldest sister.

She disagrees with that!

"How Chu Xing died?! Madam Chu knows perfectly well!"

Tian Tian looked down at the people downstairs, "Everyone knows what's going on!"

Everyone laughed in a very lewd way... Chu Xing's usual place was the Flower Street in the county, which was full of prostitutes.

The prostitutes there are cheap, sometimes costing only a few coins to enter, but they are very dirty.

"Chu Xing frequents the red-light district and is unfaithful to my elder sister!"

"On the contrary, it's my eldest sister who has a gentle nature, yet your Chu family bullies her like this!"

Tian Tian turned her gaze to Madam Chu, "If a husband's family wants to divorce his wife, they should inform the wife's family, but the Chu family has never discussed it with us."

"We do not accept the letter of divorce that the Chu family gave to my eldest sister!"

"We will definitely go to the county government to seek justice."

Madam Chu strode up the stairs, gritting her teeth as she said, "Tian is a woman; it's her fault if she can't control her man!"

"If she could control her man, why would Xing'er go to the brothel?"

She looked up at Chu Wang, "Wang'er, what's going on?"

Tian Tian smiled, "Does Madam Chu not know what happened?"

Madam Chu glanced at her, then looked at Chu Qian, "Qian'er, come here to Grandma."

Chu Qian shook his head and snuggled into Tian Xiang's arms.

Chu Wang's eyes darted around. "Mother, it's nothing. It's just that... it's just that Madam Tian suddenly came up."

Tian Tian glanced at him disdainfully, "Wasn't Young Master Chu quite arrogant just now?"

She knelt down and said, "Qian'er, don't be afraid. Let your grandma take a look at your injuries."

Judging from Chu Wang's eyes, he was afraid that Madam Chu would find out what had happened.

This shows that... Madam Chu had no idea what he had done.

Chu Qian wouldn't listen to Tian Tian.

Tian Tian had no choice but to call on Tian Xiang for help, "Big sister."

Tian Xiang squatted down. "Qian'er, don't be afraid. Let your grandma take a look."

Chu Qian then nodded.

Tian Xiang pulled open Chu Qian's shirt from behind...

Besides the crisscrossing bruises we just saw, there's now a patch of red, from where we bumped into it.

Madam Chu glanced at it, her eyes widening in disbelief. "How could this be?"

She began to unbutton Chu Qian's clothes.

Chu Qian removed all his clothes from his upper body, revealing all his injuries.

Besides his back, there were also bruises on his chest.

"This..." Madam Chu was shocked.

The onlookers, who had somehow made their way up the stairs, saw Chu Qian's injuries and exclaimed in shock, "My God! Chu Wang was too ruthless!"

"The child is only three years old, and his body is already convulsing like this!"

"This is really going to kill the child. What a shrew who's taking over the restaurant!"

Chu Wang argued, "Mother, it was because Qian'er was disobedient that I hit him."

The onlookers scoffed, "How can a three-year-old be expected to behave?"

"That's right, this Chu Wang... you really can't tell he's so ruthless."

Hearing these words, Madam Chu quickly dressed Chu Qian and then pulled him into her arms.

"Ms. Tian, ​​this matter... has nothing to do with you. You can leave now," she said sternly.

Tian Xiang subconsciously wanted to turn around and leave, but then suddenly stopped.

She looked at Chu Qian...

Chu Qian's eyes were brimming with tears, his little mouth twitching, the word "mother" stuck in his throat, he murmured but couldn't make a sound, which made Tian Xiang's heart ache.

"Madam Chu..."

She wanted to say something to Madam Chu, but after a long while, she couldn't say anything.

Tian Tian pulled her behind her and stood in front of her, "Mrs. Chu."

“We can leave today, but your Chu family must guarantee that Qian’er and Yao’er will not be bullied by anyone while they are here.”

Tian Tian glanced at Chu Wang and said, "If anything happens to Qian'er and Yao'er, we will definitely sue him for murder for money."

She looked down at the people downstairs, "So many people here today are witnesses."

Everyone nodded in agreement. Some people thought Tian Tian's words made sense, but most of them just wanted to watch the drama unfold.

Madam Chu took a breath. "Qian'er and Yao'er are our Chu family's children. How could we bully them?"

She glanced at Chu Wang. "It was all a misunderstanding today!"

Hearing her say that, Tian Tian knew what she was planning.

After glancing once more at Manager Chu, who had been standing silently to the side, Tian Tian decided to back down.

"I hope Madam Chu will keep her word."

She picked up the piece of hemp cloth that had fallen to the ground and presented it to Madam Chu. "Madam Chu, it is true that my elder sister and I are village women, but she is also the mother of two children. This blood relationship cannot be severed by a letter of divorce."

"Madam Chu is a mother herself, so she should know... a mother will do anything for her child."

Madam Chu sensed the threatening intent in Tian Tian's words.

Reluctantly, she raised her hand and took the cloth.

She thought to herself, what kind of fine fabric could a family like theirs possibly offer as a gift?

But as soon as she touched the fabric, she was stunned.

It's linen...

Silk and linen cloth are not cheap; they cost at least two hundred coins per bolt.

She knew the situation of the Tian family, of course.

Although the Chu family gave Tian Xiang two taels of silver when they divorced her, based on her understanding of the people in the Tian family, Tian Xiang couldn't keep those two taels of silver.

Tian Xiang's father had just died not long ago, and her mother was a soft-hearted person...

Where did they get the money to buy silk and linen?

Madam Chu glanced at Tian Tian.

She had met Tian Xiang, this younger sister, before.

When Chu Xing and Tian Xiang got married, Tian Tian came along. At that time, she was still a timid teenager.

In just three years, he's developed such a strong personality?

Moreover, they knew how to incite people in the surrounding area to come to the restaurant to watch the commotion, and they spread those alarmist rumors...

"Big sister, let's go." Tian Tian grabbed Tian Xiang and turned to leave.

"Mother!" Chu Qian suddenly called out.

Tian Xiang stopped in her tracks...

Tian Tian let go of her and squatted down in front of Chu Qian.

"Qian'er," she called out.

Chu Qian stared at her blankly for a long while before finally speaking, "Auntie..."

"Qian'er, remember this." Tian Tian didn't lower her voice, speaking at a normal volume.

"Your mother loves you very much and wants to be with you."

"But she had no choice."

"But she will try her best."

"One day, she will bring you to her side."

"Before that, you need to protect yourself and your sister."

She reached out and ruffled Chu Qian's hair. "Qian'er, is that alright?"

Chu Qian nodded. "Okay."

Tian Tian smiled and rubbed her hands together again. "Trust Auntie, this day... will come soon! It won't be long."
