Chapter 302

The third master had just apologized to his eldest sister-in-law when a servant came to call him again.

"Third Master, you'd better go and see! The Third Madam is scolding the young lady again, and she won't let her get married..."

"Nonsense, utter nonsense."

The Third Master was so angry that he strode over to Chun Shu's courtyard.

"Mother, I'll go take a look."

Chunyu sighed, "Sister Shu'er has had a tough time."

"Go and see, Huang has passed away."

Xu felt once again that he should marry a virtuous wife, and that marrying someone like Huang who was so unreasonable was a misfortune for the family.

It is a tragedy that Chun Shu and Chun An encountered such a mother.

In Chunshu's courtyard, Madam Huang was still scolding her daughter, even as she was being pulled away by a servant.

The Third Master's vision went black upon seeing this scene.

He really wanted to...

“Third Aunt, today is Shu’er’s big day. Your actions not only embarrass Shu’er but also disgrace the Xiao family. Although Young Master Lin is only a scholar, he is of good character and has a bright future. He and Shu’er are in love, and it is an auspicious day. As her mother, you should bless her.”

Chunyu turned around and said to Madam Huang in a deep voice.

"A limitless future?"

Huang turned to look at Chunyu.

“You all married well, but I’m afraid Chun Shu will surpass you all, so your mother found her such a poor family.”

Chunyu... is utterly unreasonable.

Huang ignored all advice and instead made an even bigger scene, sitting on the ground slapping her thighs and wailing.

"My poor daughter! I'm so sorry! If anyone dares to let you get into the bridal sedan chair today, I'll die right here!"

As the auspicious time was about to pass, the sound of sedan chair bearers urging them on came from outside. Chun Shu was so anxious that she trembled all over and almost fainted.

At this moment, Chunnuan, who had been in the hall, quickly walked in after receiving the news.

Her face was calm, but her eyes held a hint of coldness. She looked at Huang Shi, who was throwing a tantrum, and didn't say a word. Instead, she took out a silver needle from her purse, stepped forward, and took advantage of the moment when Huang Shi was crying and shouting to quickly insert it into an acupoint on the back of her neck.

Huang's crying stopped abruptly, her body went limp, her eyes rolled back, and she fell silent instantly.

"Nuan Nuan, what... what happened to Auntie San?" Chun Yu asked, both shocked and frightened, as she held Chun Nuan's hand.
As spring warmed, she withdrew her silver needles, her tone indifferent.

"Don't worry, elder sister. I'm just putting her unconscious temporarily. She'll wake up naturally once Shuer is in the bridal sedan chair. If this continues, the marriage will really be ruined, which is something no one wants to see."

"Eldest sister, Nuannuan is right. Now is not the time to hesitate. Shuer, quickly put on the veil and get into the bridal sedan chair."

Chunyan quickly helped to comfort her.

Looking at her unconscious mother, Chun Shu felt a pang of sorrow and pain in her heart, but she knew that things had come to this point and she could not delay any longer.

She gritted her teeth, wiped away her tears, and with the help of Chunyu and Chunnuan, picked up the red veil, covered her head, and walked out of her boudoir step by step.

In the hall, after paying respects to her father, Chun Shu looked at her mother's empty seat and almost burst into tears.

She really has a wonderful mother!
"Sister Shu'er." Chun Ning squatted down in front of her: "Chun Ning will carry you to the bridal sedan chair."

Chun'an was too young to carry Chun Shu, so Chun Ning took the initiative to do the job.

With tears in her eyes, Chun Shu leaned against Chun Ning's back.

"Sister Shu'er, the Xiao family's doors will always be open for you." Chun Ning said, "We all hope you live a good life. If you suffer any grievances, don't bear it. Today's Xiao family is not the Xiao family of the past."

This was to tell Chun Shu that he, the second-place finisher in the imperial examination, was willing to support her.

What wonderful cousins ​​they are!

Yes, everyone in the Xiao family is very kind, and she is very fortunate to have been born into the Xiao family. However, she also deeply resents being born into the Xiao family and into Huang's womb.

"Sister Shu'er, you're about to get into the bridal sedan chair. You're not someone who's left behind by the Xiao family, so remember to come home often."

"Thank you, Chun Ning."

A tear rolled down Chun Shu's cheek.

She didn't know what married life would be like.
Can she really live a good life?
Is it really possible to avoid being wronged?

The sun was shining brightly outside, and the bridal sedan chair was quietly parked at the door. When the sedan chair bearers saw the bride come out, they quickly lifted the curtain.

Chun Ning placed Chun Shu in front of the bridal sedan chair, and surrounded by maids and matchmakers, she stepped into the sedan chair. Lifting a corner of the curtain, she watched the gate of the Xiao residence gradually disappear into the distance, silently thinking, "Mother, I'm sorry, I don't want to listen to you anymore. I'm willing to listen to my aunt. I trust my aunt's judgment..."

The bridal sedan chair was slowly lifted, and the sound of gongs and drums rang out again, the festive music dispelling the previous chaos.

Chun Shu had already boarded the bridal sedan chair, but at this time, Chun Shu's boudoir was still in a mess.

Master Xiao looked at his third brother and sighed.

"What are you going to do?"

"Brother, I want to divorce my wife."

The words "I want to divorce my wife" shocked the Xiao family.

Upon closer reflection, it seems quite understandable.

Huang may be ill, but more often than not, she is using illness as a pretext to act crazy.

One minute she suspects the man is having an affair with one of the maids, the next she says Chun Shu has a lover and she's going to the school to find Chun An...

In short, if we don't send a few capable old women to guard the door, we'll have to clean up the mess in no time.

It's fine for a day or two, but it's always been like this.

“Third son, the Xiao family men do not take concubines, and women do not become concubines.” Master Xiao also sympathized with his third son, but the family rules could not be changed: “There has never been a case of divorcing a wife. Besides, Huang has already given you wife and children…”

“Brother, if she could listen to me, take her medicine properly, and rest in the house, there would be no problem at all.” Master Xiao shook his head with a wry smile: “However, she only listens to the Huang family. She treats the Huang family’s words as imperial edicts. We, the Xiao family, have all wronged her. Since that’s the case, I will return her to the Huang family.”

Yes, she felt that the Huang family was very prestigious and better than the Xiao family, and she had a great sense of superiority.

She thought the Huang family was good, and even wanted Chun Shu to become a concubine in the Huang family.

This is truly absurd.

However, divorcing his wife is not a solution either.

"She still has Chun Shu and Chun An." Master Xiao sighed, and finally looked at Chun Nuan: "Nuan Nuan, is there any cure for your third aunt's illness?"

“Third Aunt’s problem is psychological, and only psychological remedies can cure psychological problems.” Chun Nuan shook her head: “I’ve seen her, and she’s not suitable to live in the Xiao family.”

What do you mean?
Would Chunnuan also agree to divorce his wife?

"No, Uncle, what I mean is, it would be best to find a scenic place for Aunt to recuperate."

Divorce is something the Xiao family simply cannot do.

But Huang has really gone too far; the best course of action is to send her to the estate.

When she has too much free time, she starts causing trouble!

Let her experience some hardship, and she'll realize how good the Xiao family is.

"I'll prescribe a few more doses of medicine to help her recover."

I'll go back whenever I feel like it.

In any case, Huang needs to reflect on her actions and stop thinking that everyone in the Xiao family has to listen to her.

She caused Chun Shu a lot of trouble, and made her experience a miserable life.
