Chapter 121: Getting Rid of the Zhang Family
However...
Shu Yu understood her concerns. "You don't have to worry about dragging us down. The current problem lies with Zhang Shu. If you had wanted a divorce earlier, others might have criticized our family, thinking that we were too domineering and that you couldn't bear any suffering. They would have even attacked you for not being able to conceive. But once the real reason is exposed, the rumors and gossip will mostly concentrate on Zhang Shu and the Zhang family."
Shu Yu sneered and continued, "Give me a few days, and I will find evidence that will ruin the Zhang family."
If Zhang Shu had only become impotent but had treated Da Ya well over the past two years, Shu Yu wouldn't have acted so ruthlessly.
But now, unless she completely ruins the Zhang family, she won't be surnamed Lu.
Da Ya sat beside Shu Yu on the shaft of the cart, gazing at the scenery along the way, breathing the air that no longer felt suffocating and oppressive.
Finally, she nodded slowly and said, "Okay, I will divorce him."
Shu Yu turned her head and glanced at her, finally seeing a glimmer of hope in Da Ya's eyes.
She smiled faintly, shook the reins, and said, "Drive..."
The two sisters returned home, and Lu Dasong and Lu Sanzhu also came back.
Lu Dasong and Lu Sanzhu were both at the Lu family's place. While helping Lu Erbai cut wood for modeling, they angrily talked about their visit to the Zhang family.
When they saw Shu Yu, Lu Sanzhu didn't waste any time and dropped the piece of wood he was holding, rushing over to complain. "Ah Yu, you finally came back. Let me tell you, the Zhang family is shameless. We went to Dayan Village early this morning to settle the score, but all the men from the Zhang family were hiding. Only old woman and her two daughters-in-law came out to argue with us."
Unfortunately, those who went from the Lu family were all grown men, and when faced with women's tantrums and curses, besides Lu Sanzhu responding in kind, the others were somewhat at a loss.
Even though Lu Sanzhu was audacious, he was still just one person. The old woman had lost face the day before yesterday and didn't care about her image anymore. She brazenly said all sorts of dirty and offensive things that no one could bear to listen to.
Mr. Feng and Mr. Zhou came over to interfere with them. Lu Dasong song couldn't do anything about it. If things continued like this, even they themselves wouldn't be able to explain clearly. They had no choice but to leave Dayan Village as soon as possible.
Lu Sanzhu, enraged, said, "If it wasn't for my eldest brother stopping me, I would have almost resorted to violence. If I had known earlier, I would have taken my wife and sister-in-law with me to see who could out-argue whom."
Lu Dasong sighed on the side and said, "Ah, I thought that with a few of us men going over, the Zhang family would also send out a few men to deal with us. Who knew..." The other side unexpectedly disregarded martial virtue and had several women confront them.
Lu Dasong felt ashamed. With so many of them, they were still less effective than Shu Yu and Da Niu were yesterday.
Shu Yu pondered for a moment and asked, "Is Zhang Shu not at home?"
"No, he's not," Lu Sanzhu sneered. "He went to the county town to do casual labor. He probably hasn't received the news yet. According to what that old woman meant, she doesn't plan on telling Zhang Shu at all. She even said that once Da Ya leaves, she shouldn't come back. She doesn't have in-laws like us. If they divorce Da Ya, she won't let Zhang Shu take Da Ya back... She..."
"Third brother," Lu Dasong interrupted him with a stern voice, looking at Da Ya, afraid that she would feel uncomfortable.
However, Da Ya remained calm. On the way back, she had gradually come to accept Shu Yu's words.
Seeing that Uncle and Third Uncle seemed reluctant to speak in front of her, she said to the others, "I'm going inside to help mother make clothes."
After saying that, she left.
