The Abandoned Wife of a Military Family: Your disguise has been exposed again.

Chapter 57 destined me to not have such a blessing.

The middle-aged man was Manager Ding.

He brought people to help Yunwei move her things.

Seeing Li Yaoting's confused expression, he sighed inwardly. This Li Yaoting was so eager to climb the social ladder, but he didn't realize that the opportunity was right in front of him, and he didn't even know what a treasure he was losing.

What a short-sighted move!

Such a person is destined to have no good fortune!

“My mistress is naturally Miss Yun the Second,” Steward Ding replied, enunciating each word clearly.

Yun Clan?

Li Yaoting frowned. Could the person in front of him be a servant of the Yun family?

The aura emanating from the other person was unlike that of an ordinary servant.

The intriguing expression on the other person's face made him feel inexplicably uneasy.

"Has the Yun family returned to the Yun family?" he asked in a deep voice.

"Where my master has gone is none of Lord Li's concern." After saying this, Steward Ding ignored him and shoved the medicine bottle into his hand. He then arranged for people to load all of Yun Wei's belongings onto the carriage and take them away.

As he watched the furniture and other items being loaded onto the carriage, Li Yaoting suddenly felt a pang of unease.

He had a vague feeling that he had lost something.

He held the medicine bottle, standing there for a long time, until a servant came to report, "My lord, the old lady's condition has worsened again."

Li Yaoting was startled and then came to his senses. He grabbed the medicine bottle and hurriedly went to Qiutong Courtyard.

After taking the antidote, Madam Li's condition was finally brought under control, and she immediately regained her energy.

Thinking of the suffering she had endured, she said with a gloomy face, "Yaoting, you must seek justice for me! That poisonous woman Yun has harmed me so cruelly. She must be punished severely and then divorced!" In addition, everything in Yun's room must be kept, especially that golden nanmu table. It should be moved over and placed in her room.

Thinking of this, Old Madam Li couldn't wait any longer and wished she could divorce Yun Wei on the grounds that Yun Wei had poisoned her.

In this way, Yunwei, who was kicked out of the house, was also unable to take her dowry with her.

Li Yaoting was unaware of her scheming. Seeing that she was alright, he sat down, feeling somewhat weak.

To save his mother, he spent the whole day running around trying to raise money.

However, seeing his mother's displeased expression, he still reassured her, "Mother, don't worry, I have divorced Yun Shi, and she will never be in your way again."

"What?" Old Madam Li froze, then exclaimed in shock, "Who told you to divorce her? A vicious woman like her should be divorced and despised by everyone. What right does she have to divorce you?"

Li Yaoting was taken aback by his mother's reaction. After a moment of stunned silence, he said with a troubled expression, "She won't hand over the antidote unless we divorce her. Didn't Mother tell me to prioritize your life and agree to her demands?"

Upon hearing this, Madam Li remembered that this had happened, and she choked for a moment. After a long while, she said angrily, "Her request is to divorce you?"

"Yes." Li Yaoting nodded.

"Have you withheld any of her dowry?" Old Madam Li asked hurriedly.

Li Yaoting frowned. "According to the laws of this dynasty, when a couple divorces, the man should return all of the woman's dowry."

Upon hearing this, Madam Li clutched her chest and gasped for breath.

Seeing this, Li Yaoting quickly patted her back and asked, "What's wrong, Mother?"

Madam Li glared at him fiercely, "You, you idiot, how could you let her have her way with everything?" Any one of the decorative items, tables and chairs in Madam Yun's room was worth thousands of taels of silver, and her son just let Madam Yun take them all away?
Madam Li was so angry that her chest ached.

Li Yaoting's expression changed. From childhood to adulthood, his mother had never used such words to scold him, yet today she spoke so recklessly, even in front of the servants.

At that moment, he also got angry, thinking, "If I don't give in to her, where will my mother find the strength to criticize me right now?"

"You unfilial son!" Old Madam Li was already angry, and seeing that he still dared to talk back to her, she became even angrier. "Do you even know how much silver those decorative items and chairs in the Yun family's room are worth? You just let her take them all away like that, you're so useless!"

Li Yaoting felt uneasy. How could he not know that everything in Yun's house was valuable? But Yun was threatening his mother's life, how could he disregard his mother's well-being?
Now that his mother was saved, she showed him no sympathy whatsoever, and instead kept blaming him.

Li Yaoting was filled with resentment, and his face darkened. He said coldly, "Not only did Yun take away all of her dowry, but in order to repay the money she had spent on the Li family over the past three years, I sold my shop and borrowed money at interest to raise 20,000 taels of silver to repay her."

"What?" Old Madam Li's vision went black, and she fell straight down.

"Mother!" Li Yaoting's expression changed drastically.

The Li family was thrown into chaos once again.

After consulting a doctor and confirming that Madam Li had simply fainted, Li Yaoting was relieved, but he had no desire to stay and take care of her any longer.

He had just entered the study when Chen Yuniang followed him in.

She embraced Li Yaoting tightly, saying tenderly, "Tinglang, I've finally made it through."

Li Yaoting frowned and pushed her away. "What do you mean by that?"

Chen Yuniang's joy froze, and she frowned, saying, "Since Yun has requested to be divorced, your position as the principal wife is vacant, so naturally you should elevate me to the position."

Li Yaoting paused for a moment, then replied somewhat perfunctorily, "Let's talk about it later. Your third brother is still in jail, and we need to find a way to get him out."

Chen Yuniang felt uncomfortable upon hearing this.

She had always dreamed of becoming Li Yaoting's legal wife, and now that the opportunity was right in front of her, Li Yaoting was making such a fuss.

Does that mean she'll be a concubine for life if her third brother never comes out?
Chen Yuniang was furious, but she couldn't refute it.

After all, she also wanted her third brother to come out, so that the Chen family would have hope of reviving.

……

The Yun family only learned of Yun Wei's divorce several days later.

"Such a big thing, and she didn't even consult with the family before making the decision on her own. Does she even care about us?" Xu was both shocked and furious.

Yun Yueshan and his eldest son Yun Qi also frowned.

Seeing this, Yun Yao felt a sense of schadenfreude.

But I really didn't expect that Yunwei would divorce Li Yaoting.

When she learned of this, she was also very surprised and rushed back to the Yun family to tell them the news.

"Do you know where she is now?" Yun Yueshan suddenly asked in a deep voice.

Yun Yao shook her head. "I only found out about my sister's divorce from other people. As for where she is now, I don't know." After saying that, she sighed and looked heartbroken. "My sister has had a hard time. If anyone is to blame, it's Li Yaoting. He's heartless. My sister worked hard for the Li family for three years, but she ended up being kicked out. She hasn't come back yet. She must be hiding somewhere, crying her heart out."

Madam Xu looked furious. "If anyone is to blame, it's her own fault for not listening to my advice." Men have three wives and four concubines all the time, so why does it have to come to the point of divorce?
That girl also had a very high opinion of herself.

Sure enough, those who grow up in the countryside tend to have limited perspectives.
