With no other options available, Ding Qiuyue had to make her way back home first.
News of Ding Qiuyue’s return quickly spread throughout the community, becoming a subject of gossip among the majority of people who treated it as a mere joke.
Ms. Ma overheard some of the gossip and shared it with the family.
Curious, Shao Liulang asked, “Mom, find out everything you can about the current situation of the Zhao Family. Gather as many details as possible.” Realizing the gravity of the situation. Ms. Ma hurriedly left to gather information.
Ding Qiuyue’s family was in a state of chaos. Her parents, Ding Jiahuai and Ms. Guan, bombarded her with questions about why she had returned and what had happened to the Zhao Family, growing increasingly anxious. I
n her distressed state, Ding Qiuyue mumbled incoherently, further frustrating her mother, who snapped at her impatiently.
Ding Qiuyue noticed a strong sense of annoyance on her brother’s and sister-in-law’s faces.
Her heart shattered as she realized that her family was showing no sympathy towards her. They seemed to blame her for the troubles she faced, despite all she had done for them.
Normally, this time of day was not suitable for visitors, and curious individuals wouldn’t usually drop by either.
However, Ms. Ma was filled with anxiety.
Her focus was solely on her future daughter-in-law, and she disregarded everything else.
Ms. Ma’s arrival abruptly halted the commotion within the Ding Family.
Ignoring the tense atmosphere, Ms. Ma anxiously inquired, “Qiuyue, how is the Zhao Family? Have Old Master Zhao and Young Master Zhao returned home? Please, tell me!”
Ding Qiuyue was perplexed by Ms. Ma’s sudden interest. She sneered in response, “Yes, they did return. But they left the county early in the morning together. They won’t be coming back! ”
“What? How can this happen?” Ms. Ma exclaimed in shock.
Ding Qiuyue sneered, sharing the same sentiment. She couldn’t fathom what led to this outcome.
Ms. Guan glanced at Ms. Ma curiously. “Why are you so concerned about the Zhao Family?”
“Of course, I am!” Ms. Ma’s heart felt heavy. “They are my future in-laws!” The Ding Family stared at Ms. Ma, their eyes widening in confusion.
“What… did you just say? Future in-laws?”
“Are they really your future in-laws?” they asked, trying to make sense of the situation.
Unable to keep it a secret any longer, Ms. Ma admitted, ‘Yes! Lady Zhao and my son are in love, and they are planning to get married soon! How can the Zhao Family be in such a state? I need to inform Liulang about this immediately.”
Without wasting any more time, Ms. Ma hurriedly left the house. The Ding Family remained puzzled, their earlier argument completely
forgotten.
As Ms. Ma returned home, she immediately relayed the news to Shao Liulang, who was equally shocked. His heart sank as he realized that Lady Zhao, his beloved, had left and the Zhao Family was no longer in the county.
“What do we do now? What do we do?” Shao Liulangs distress matched that of his mother. All his hopes and dreams seemed to crumble in an instant.
Ms. Ma felt even more devastated than Shao Liulang. She had lost the chance to flaunt her status with a wealthy daughter-in-law, the opportunity to wear luxurious gold and silver ornaments slipping away.
“It’s all the fault of the first section of the family!” Ms. Ma snapped angrily. “If it weren’t for their coldness, the Zhao Family wouldn’t have been driven away, and I wouldn’t have lost such a good daughter-in-law! I won’t let them off easily. I’ll reason with them!”
Shao Liulang, however, intervened, stopping Ms. Ma from causing trouble at the first section of the family. His tone turned cold as he said, “Leave it. There’s no need to go to them anymore. They’re hypocritical, and if you confront them, they’ll only counter you. You won’t be able to win against them..
