Chapter 542 Kicked out of the house
Yang was surprised that Ke Yunyun would come over on her own initiative, and that Ke Yunyun had overheard what she said. Her expression became a little unnatural, but then she thought about it and realized that she hadn't said anything wrong, so why was she feeling guilty? She regained her composure.

Tang Yu stepped forward, her voice softening considerably as she spoke to Ke Yunyun, "Why did you suddenly come here?"

He didn't want Ke Yunyun to worry about these things at all.

Ke Yunyun winked at him for a while, then suddenly burst into tears, feeling wronged. "My cousin came to visit today, and my mother and sister-in-law didn't even say a word. They scolded my cousin as soon as they came in. Our family is able to establish itself in the capital thanks to my cousin. I humbly apologized to her."

But my cousin was still unhappy. She left in a huff. "Husband, for the sake of our children's future, I really don't dare to keep my mother-in-law and sister-in-law here any longer. I know they have been very kind to you."

You will definitely have to take care of them, so I've decided to divorce you!

Back then, you went to teach at my cousin's house with no money. Later, when we got married, everything in the house was my dowry. After I've taken stock, you can leave!

Zheng and Yang both changed their expressions and bypassed Tang Yu to attack Ke Yunyun.

"Mrs. Ke! What do you mean by that? My son didn't mind that you were a widow with a child and remarried, but you're looking down on my son? Let me tell you, women who enter the Tang family never get a divorce. They either die or are divorced!"

Zheng was furious and almost pounced on Ke Yunyun to tear her apart.

Ke Yunyun, however, was not afraid at all. Instead, she deliberately provoked Zheng Shi, "Then I'm really sorry, I'm in good health and won't die anytime soon! Divorce me? I'm not helpless and at the mercy of others. You can try if you dare!"

"Your sister-in-law, how could you speak to your mother like that! Mother, don't be angry, your sister-in-law must be talking nonsense. Let me help you back to rest." Madam Yang hurriedly tried to take Madam Zheng away, afraid that if she was too slow, Ke Yunyun would really kick her out.

As soon as they left, Ke Yunyun's face darkened, and she pulled Tang Yu, who also looked grim, back into the courtyard.

"I'll move out in the next few days, please bear with me a little longer."

Having been married for so many years, Tang Yu immediately guessed Ke Yunyun's thoughts, and stroked his chin as he began to ponder where there were relatively dilapidated houses in the capital.

Ke Yunyun glared at him, annoyed. "I said those things just now to provoke them, don't take it to heart. I just really don't want to put up with them anymore, and I don't want them to mess up our lives."

Yang had been keeping a close eye on the situation in the main courtyard, and she panicked completely when she heard the next morning that Tang Yu had been kicked out by Ke Yunyun.

He consulted with Zheng Shi, "Mother, what do we do now? What if my sister-in-law really wants to divorce my brother-in-law?"

Madam Zheng remained remarkably calm. "What's the panic! Even if A-Yu and Madam Ke divorce, he's still my son, a high-ranking official in the capital. He's not going to starve! I want to see what kind of good life she, a discarded woman with a child, can live without my son!"

Zheng was a typical peasant woman who revolved around her husband and son. As long as her son was alive, she had nothing to worry about.

Although Yang was shrewd and calculating, she had limited experience. Upon hearing Zheng's words, her uneasy heart gradually calmed down.

At the same time, she still clung to a sliver of hope, thinking that Ke Yunyun would never actually divorce her. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law behaved themselves all day, but Tang Yu didn't return by nightfall, and Zheng Shi habitually began to berate Ke Yunyun again.

"You can't even control your own man, you're completely useless. My Ayu is so unlucky to have married you, just looking at you brings me bad luck!"

Ke Yunyun slammed down her chopsticks, elegantly wiped the corner of her mouth, and gave a sly smile. "Someone, pack Madam Tang's luggage and take her to Master Tang's house."

Madam Zheng's expression changed drastically. "Madam Ke! You've gone too far! I'm your mother-in-law, how dare you kick me out?"

"Mother-in-law?" Ke Yunyun exclaimed as if she had heard the biggest joke in the world. "What mother-in-law? When Tang Yu was my husband, you could still call yourself my mother-in-law. Now that I don't want Tang Yu anymore, what are you? You used to be so polite to me, but now you think you're something special!"
"If Tang Yu hadn't been waiting for a few more days and asked me to give him some time, do you think you'd still be yelling at me like this? Now that you think I'm bad luck, I'm not going to make a fool of myself. Pack your things and get out!"

"Hello! Very well! You just wait!" Zheng was furious, but she couldn't do anything about Ke Yunyun.

She didn't have much luggage, and many of her valuables were things she had bought after arriving in the capital. When the maid took away her jade and silver bracelets, she immediately started throwing a tantrum, shouting, "Give me back my things! You robbers, I'm going to report you to the authorities!"

The maidservant curtsied respectfully and said, “Madam Tang, these things are a gift from my mistress to her elders. My mistress said that she has divorced Lord Tang, so you are no longer her elders. She only gives her things to people she likes. If you want to sue, go ahead. I can also send someone to take you to the yamen and then notify Lord Tang to come and meet you.”

These words successfully changed the expressions of Madam Zheng and Madam Yang. They only dared to speak loudly and threateningly here, but if you really took them to the yamen, they wouldn't dare to utter a sound.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had never felt so stifled in all these years. When the driver took them to the commoner's house where Tang Yu was temporarily staying, the two of them completely broke down.

Yang asked in a shrill voice, looking at her surroundings in disbelief, "Uncle, you live here now?"

Faced with Yang's anger and Zheng's surprise, Tang Yu wiped the dust off the stools for them and invited them to sit down. "I haven't finished cleaning up here yet. It won't be so dirty once it's clean!"

Tang Yu was still somewhat confused as she spoke, "Last night I begged the Ke family to let you stay for a few more days. The Ke family isn't the kind of people who break their word, so why did they suddenly kick you out?"

Yang's eyes flickered as she pondered the truthfulness of Tang Yu's words.

Zheng, however, acted as if it were perfectly natural, and began to speak ill of Ke Yunyun in a huff, "In all my years, I've never seen anyone as unfilial and disrespectful as her. She can't even figure out how to be a daughter-in-law. How could you have fallen for her in the first place? Now she's bullying me."

The more Zheng talked, the angrier she became.

Tang Yu was speechless, but remained respectful and did not refute, saying only, "Mother, don't be angry. Anyway, I have already divorced Ke Shi, and she will not be your daughter-in-law in the future. I will go and tidy up your room. Rest first."

It was only then that Madam Zheng came to her senses and grabbed Tang Yu, "You're cleaning the room? You're an official, do you need to do this kind of thing? Where's your servant?"

She remembered that Tang Yu always had a servant with him.

Tang Yu smiled bitterly, "Mother, I've already divorced him. That servant belongs to Madam Ke, and the indenture is also in Madam Ke's hands. She's taken him back."
