The daughter of the first wife is a black lotus, reborn and remarried to kill

Chapter 17 If you dare to talk nonsense again, I will divorce you!

Li Shuyue was confused and just thought the person in front of her was funny. "What do you mean by that, Third Sister? Now that I've married into the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, even my father dares to make up stories about me? This is really disrespectful!"

Li Qingqian shook her head and said with a straight face, "It's not me who disrespects father, it's you, my fourth sister. Father had already forbidden mother to walk, and you, my fourth sister, didn't ask what father and grandmother thought, or even me, the eldest sister who is in charge of the household, and you sneaked into the Jinyu Courtyard like a thief. As an elder sister, I kindly sent people to guard the Jinyu Courtyard to prevent father from blaming you, but you turned around and bit me!"

"What?" Li Shuyue was furious. "Those people were sent by you?"

She was just thinking that her father was about to leave court, and was about to hurry back to Shuangyue Residence, but was stopped by the maids and was not allowed to leave.

These people who were used to doing things for their mother turned against Li Qingqian overnight? I don't know what kind of magic potion this bitch fed to these people!

Seeing her raising her hand high, about to hit Li Qingqian, Li Zhengkang's anger was completely ignited. He grabbed Li Shuyue's arm and threw it away fiercely, "Do you still want to hit your sister now? Liu, this is the good daughter you raised for me!"

Liu was born in a merchant family. She had always been a little in awe of Li Zhengkang in the past. But now she was thinking that her daughter would soon become the prince's consort, and her own status in the Li family would also rise, so she felt more confident.

Seeing that his daughter was angry, he stiffened his neck and retorted: "This daughter was born by me alone? Obviously Li Qingqian was also wrong, but you only blamed my daughter. Li Zhengkang, you are really biased now!"

Li Zhengkang was stunned for a moment. Liu, who had always been respectful to him, suddenly had such a strong grudge against him. He didn't know what to say for a moment.

However, as the saying goes, the enemy of my enemy is my ally, Li Qingqian was kind enough to pat him on the back to calm him down so that he would not faint from anger.

"When I came in just now, I heard my mother saying that my father was concerned about the Liu family's money and didn't dare to keep you locked up. It seems that my mother is really a big shot."

Speaking of this matter again, no matter how well Liu disguised herself, she couldn't hold it anymore.

"How dare you bring this up, you little bitch? You have no right to interrupt our parents and elders when they are talking!"

These three words touched Li Zhengkang's anger nerve again, "Who are you calling a little bitch? Your Liu family is just a merchant family. If it weren't for the influence of Ben Xiang in the court, do you think your Liu family could have lived such a prosperous life now? Now that Ben Xiang's influence has helped, the business is going smoothly. Not only are you ungrateful, you even dare to insult the daughter of me and my first wife?"

These words made Liu's eyes widen in shock, "You, what did you say?"

I have been their childhood sweetheart, but after he passed the imperial examination, he turned around and married a noble lady.

She waited for him patiently, and lived until she was an old maid who was laughed at by everyone in her family. She finally waited for his original wife to die.

She had been married to the Li family for more than ten years, gave birth to a daughter for him, used the Liu family's money to pave the way for his official career, and even miscarried a fully grown male fetus a few years ago.

But because of my love for him, I have never had any complaints about him, and now he actually says this?

Li Qingqian sneered in his heart. This might be the first time that Liu had witnessed such a thing, but it was not the first time for him to see it.

There are some people in this world, especially men who are used to living off their wives. Once they become successful, they feel that it is all due to their own efforts. The behavior of getting benefits from their wives in the past will be automatically classified by them as "sleeping on straw and tasting gall".

This was the case with Jiang Lin in his previous life, and it is also the case with Li Zhengkang now.

"Gratitude? What should I be grateful to you for?" Liu's heart was broken, and she was so weak that she couldn't even speak. "If I have to talk about gratitude, it should be you, Li Zhengkang, who should be grateful to me, Liu Shuniang! If my family hadn't sent money to the Li Mansion like water over the years, do you think you could be as prosperous as you are today?"

Li Qingqian's heart trembled slightly. It was the first time she knew that Liu's original name was Liu Shuniang.

However, as a woman who had experienced the same thing, Li Qingqian might sympathize with Liu. But Liu did harm her, and was even suspected of killing her biological mother and poisoning her grandmother. Li Qingqian did not intend to say anything for her.

"Pa!" Li Zhengkang was so angry that his body was shaking. He swung his arm and hit Liu. "You are really crazy! If you say such nonsense again, I will divorce you!"

Liu was stunned, her face tilted and she didn't react at all.

Li Shuyue was frightened, and hurriedly stepped forward to grab Li Zhengkang's sleeve, "Father, please don't! Mother was just confused because of anger, she didn't mean it!"

Li Qingqian came back to his senses and just met the vicious look that Li Shuyue was shooting at him.

She curled the corners of her mouth. Anyone who has been a queen is kind to all women in the world, but she, Li Qingqian, is not a person with a heart of saintliness.

"Fourth sister, you said mother was confused because of anger? Was she confused because of me or because of what father said?"

Li Shuyue looked at Li Zhengkang with a guilty conscience, swallowed her saliva, and said stubbornly: "Sister, you still have the nerve to say this? Mother must be confused by you."

"Oh, then tell me, what did I do to make mother so angry?" Li Qingqian's eyes gradually turned cold. "I was protecting you by guarding Jinyuyuan for my fourth sister, which was indeed wrong. But mother must miss you just as much, so why did she get so angry because of my behavior?"

After hearing what she said, Li Zhengkang's anger surged up again, and he said to his long-time attendant: "Go get me some writing brush and ink, I'll write the divorce letter now!"

The attendant responded and went out.

Li Shuyue wanted to stop him but failed. In a hurry, she glanced at the dowry list on the table and quickly took it to show Li Zhengkang, "Father, father, look, this is the dowry list sent by uncle. My daughter is getting married soon! Father, you must not divorce mother now. If you do, won't all the money of the Liu family flow to outsiders in the future?"

Her original intention was to remind Li Zhengkang that if he wanted money, he could not cut off the connection between the Li family and the Liu family.

But these words sounded like a naked threat to Li Zhengkang, further irritating his most vulnerable nerve. He knocked the list out of Li Shuyue's hand and said, "How dare you bring this up!"

At this time, the attendant who was supposed to get the pen and ink turned back and said tremblingly: "Report, report to the master, Aunt Zhao outside said that there is a grievance to be reported."

He glanced at Li Zhengkang and added, "It's about the lady."

Only then did Liu react. About her?

He was confused and a little angry. When he ordered people to do things, he always gave them money. Now this old woman wanted to appeal. Wasn't it because she saw that he was losing power and wanted to add fuel to the fire?

She glanced at Li Qingqian with a resentful look. It must be this little bitch who instigated her! She must be taking advantage of this opportunity to make Li Zhengkang divorce her.

Li Qingqian met her gaze with an equally cold look, "Why is mother staring at me like that? What did Qingqian do wrong again to make mother unhappy?"

However, Liu did not say much to her. She just sneered and sat down on the main seat in the main hall.

She just didn't believe it. Did Li Zhengkang really dare to divorce her?

He is still thinking about the Liu family's money. I may even be the mother of the prince's wife in the future. I don't think he would dare to do anything to me.
