Chapter 17

The Gao family's business plummeted, and Tian Yufang collapsed.

Not only that, the business in neighboring counties was taken away by the Liu family.

Before, she started a price war in order to crush the Liu family.

The Gao family suffered a huge loss, but now they can no longer withstand the hardship.

The Gao family was defeated, and Tian Yufang's parents-in-law were naturally dissatisfied. Their words hinted at Tian Yufang's incompetence. Not only that, they also praised Zhao Yongheng like a flower.

This made Tian Yufang unable to bear it any longer, and she got angry and had a huge quarrel with her parents-in-law.

Gao Yuan was a pedantic scholar and extremely filial to his parents. When he saw Tian Yufang treating her parents like this, he was very angry.

The relationship between husband and wife is also in jeopardy.

One day, Tian Yufang passed by Gao Yuan's study and saw the scrolls scattered on the desk. The corners of the fairy-like woman's mouth were raised, and her beautiful eyes seemed to be filled with sarcasm.

"Zhao Yongheng!"

Suddenly, anger surged.

He stepped in, grabbed the scroll and tore it into pieces.

"Tian Yufang, what are you doing?"

Gao Yuan, who had gone out for a while for some errands, came back after finishing his errands. When he saw the mess all over the ground, he yelled angrily.

When Tian Yufang saw that he cared so much about this painting, or more specifically the woman in the painting, her anger surged in her heart, and she crushed the broken painting with her feet, "I will cut Zhao Yongheng into pieces!"

"Crack!"

A round of applause sounded in the study room.

"I'll make you regret it!"

Tian Yufang burst into tears, left a few words and left.

Gao Yuan squatted on the ground, staring at the broken paintings on the ground in a daze.



"Second uncle, I have to go back beforehand. I'd like to thank you for your troubles here."

Today is the 60th birthday of Zhao Kangshun, Zhao Yongheng's father. Yongheng is an only daughter, so he has to go back to celebrate his birthday, both emotionally and rationally.

Liu Jing responded with a smile.

Not long after she left, she arranged everything and left in a hurry.

In ancient times, after a woman got married, she was thrown out of the house. Except for the New Year and festivals, she rarely returned to her parents' home.

Zhao Yongheng never left Liu Qing because he had to take care of him, and he didn't go back for a long time.

Eternity walks home along the route in memory.

The Zhao family is not a wealthy family, but it is also a scholarly family. Three generations of the ancestors were all born in the imperial examination. However, when they came to Zhao Kangshun, they were unable to win the imperial examination.

He is already in his sixties, but he is still a talented person.

But even so, he is still one of the only talented people in the entire county.

And the other one is the male protagonist Gao Yuan.

Before entering the courtyard gate, far away, I heard a familiar coughing sound.

Liu Qing, why is he here?

Yongheng frowned lightly and followed the maid's lead into the hall.

"Heng'er, you're finally here." As soon as Mrs. Zhao Wu saw her daughter coming in, she hurriedly walked over to greet her.

"Why are you here? Could it be that your biological father is celebrating his birthday, and you, a daughter, don't know how to come over in advance to help?" Zhao Kangshun looked stern, stroking his beard, and his face showed dissatisfaction.

Yongying understood Zhao Kangshun's temperament. He was an pedantic old scholar, and her identity as his daughter was not easy to care about.

"Cough cough cough... Heng'er, you... cough cough cough... you're here." Liu Qing was out of breath due to coughing, but his face was full of joy.

There were a lot of people, so she couldn't help but put the gift box in Zhao Wu's hands, then walked to Liu Qing's side and helped him, "There are many things to do, so I'm late."

Liu Qing looked at her lovingly, "Just come."

"Xian son-in-law, you are weak, go to the backyard to rest." Zhao Kangshun had always had a good impression of Liu Qing.

He was seriously ill at that time, and if Liu Qing hadn't happened to come to propose marriage with a large sum of money, he would not have had the money to treat his illness.

For so many years, he has been filial to money every month, so that he does not have to worry about money and other mundane matters.

The father-in-law became more and more satisfied with his son-in-law. He sneered in his heart when he saw Zhao Kangshun treating Liu Qing like his own son forever.

This is a completely different attitude towards her. No wonder in the plot, Liu Qing is so slanderous about her innocence, and Zhao Kangshun, who is the biological father, does not even have a single doubt.

"Yongheng, what are you doing standing there in a daze? Why don't you go to rest with your virtuous son-in-law? Remember, take good care of your virtuous son-in-law!" Zhao Kangshun carefully warned Zhao Yongheng not to treat the God of Wealth lightly.

Yongheng glanced at the hall full of guests. Hearing the disgusting compliments, he was very bored and had no intention of staying here.

Supporting Liu Qing, the servants carried the wicker chairs, and the group headed towards the backyard.

There are many guest rooms in the backyard, and Liu Qing wants to rest in Zhao Yongheng's boudoir.

"Heng'er, your boudoir is so beautiful." Liu Qing looked at the place where his beloved wife grew up, with affection in his eyes.

Yongheng sat aside impatiently. She wanted to go back after giving the gifts, but it seemed she couldn't leave now.

The birthday banquet was about to begin, and the maid in front came over to invite them over.

"Husband, you are not feeling well, please rest here. I can just go over to my parents' place." Yongheng didn't want to stay with him for a moment.

Liu Qing, who was lying on the bed, struggled to get up and said, "My father-in-law is celebrating his birthday. How can I, as my husband and my son-in-law, not go to celebrate his birthday? It's absolutely not allowed." As he said this, he couldn't stop coughing again.

Yongheng frowned and endured coaxing for a while before giving up his idea.

As soon as Yongheng's back left, Liu Qing hurriedly ordered the servants on the side, "Don't let young men get close to the young lady."

The servant responded and left.

It was Zhao Kangshun's birthday, so his next-door neighbors, the Gao family, naturally had to come over to celebrate his birthday.

When Gao Yuan heard that Zhao Yongheng had returned to his parents' home to celebrate his birthday, he couldn't wait to rush over.

She had an argument with Gao Yuan before, and her anger had not dissipated. Tian Yufang was resentful in her heart, but she was afraid that the old relationship between the two would rekindle, so she followed her closely.

After wishing eternal birthdays, he went to sit at the table of the female relatives.

From a distance, she saw the male and female protagonists, one behind the other. She immediately turned her eyes slightly and made a plan in her mind.

After paying his birthday wishes, Gao Yuan went to the men's area. Tian Yufang saw Zhao Yongheng and walked over with a cold face.

"Sister Tian." Yongheng greeted politely.

Tian Yufang's face was still ugly, "Who is your sister? Don't get married randomly."

Yongheng was a little embarrassed, "I'm sorry, Sister Tian, ​​I know you are unhappy because of business matters, but as the daughter-in-law of the Liu family, I can only do this. Sorry!"

Tian Yufang was furious, "Zhao Yongheng, don't think that I can always be so proud that you have won now. I tell you, it won't be long before I can make a comeback and defeat you completely!"

As he spoke, he lifted the table angrily.

The movement here attracted everyone's attention. Everyone looked at the aggrieved Zhao Yongheng and Tian Yufang with a fierce look on his face.

Suddenly, whispers began.

"Tian Yufang, if you want to make trouble, go home and make trouble!" Gao Yuan shouted angrily.

"It's nothing. Sister Tian just accidentally knocked over the dishes. Just put them on the next table."

Yongheng came to the rescue at the right time and asked the maid to come over to clean up and serve the dishes again.

Gao Yuan glanced at her gratefully, and then pulled Tian Yufang, who was still angry, away.

Of course Tian Yufang refused to leave and broke away.
