Becoming a literary master starting from the story of Minglan

Chapter 422 Acting
"Father, what is this called?"

Upon hearing this, Madam Fang finally couldn't hold back any longer.

"I thought that by marrying into your Yu family, I would not only raise your children with great care, but also give birth to Zemo, the eldest grandson of the Yu family!"

"At this moment, I have only made a few mistakes. How can you, sir, allow your lord to divorce his wife who has shared his hardships?"

Madam Fang downplayed her own wrongdoing and cried out for justice. At the same time, she turned her head and secretly winked at Yu Zemo, who looked bewildered, trying to get the eldest grandson of the Yu family to plead for her.

However, Madam Fang misjudged him. Her precious son was timid and cowardly, and he didn't dare to talk back even to his own grandfather.

Yu Zemo lowered his head, cowardly avoiding his mother's gaze.

"A few mistakes?"

Grand Secretary Yu swept his gaze across the room with a cold, sharp look!
The imposing aura he had displayed for many years in the imperial court was suddenly unleashed, causing Madam Fang's body to tremble!
However, having come this far, Madam Fang secretly encouraged herself, straightened her back, and quietly comforted herself: "That's right, I... I'm right!"

"...No...there's nothing to be afraid of!"

Grand Secretary Yu didn't argue with Madam Fang, but turned to look at Yu Zhenghao and said sternly, "What? You also think this is just a minor mistake?"

“Ah…ah…this…”

Yu Zhenghao was originally trying to smooth things over and plead for his wife, but when he saw Grand Secretary Yu's appearance and his serious tone, he immediately backed down.

Yu Zhenghao felt the hairs on his body stand on end, and in a daze, he even felt a long-lost chill.

"No... not..."

Yu Zhenghao also lowered his head and replied timidly.

"Not what?"

Grand Secretary Yu was not satisfied and continued to question him.

"No...it's not...a minor mistake..."

Although he dared not look up, Yu Zhenghao could still feel the almost pleading look in Madam Fang's eyes. However, rather than sacrifice himself, Yu Zhenghao finally said something that chilled her heart.

"Yu Zhenghao, how could you..."

Madam Fang, who was standing to the side, immediately exploded!
However, since things had come to this point, Madam Fang simply ignored her parents-in-law and even her own children who were still present. Without saying a word, she immediately rolled up her sleeves and started fighting with Yu Zhenghao, who was trying to protect himself.

"Yu Zhenghao, you agreed to it back then, so why are you blaming me now?"

"What do you take me for? If it weren't for me, you wouldn't be able to recite poetry and entertain guests in public..."

Madam Fang unleashed her fury!

"You...you shrew! Stop it right now..."

Yu Zhenghao always prided himself on being refined and elegant; how could he possibly be a match for his own wife?
At this moment, when the two faced off, he was at a disadvantage and no match for him.

"I won't stop, you heartless bastard..."

"you……"

"..."

As expected of a couple, Yu Zhenghao and his wife actually started their martial arts demonstration in front of everyone.

……

Yu Gelao was clearly in despair regarding his son and daughter-in-law.

Seeing this, the old man simply stopped paying attention to the couple and turned to look at his trembling grandchildren below.

However, upon seeing Yu Zemo, who remained silent with his head bowed, and Yu Yanhong, who looked indignant and even eager to try, Grand Secretary Yu couldn't help but feel disappointed from the bottom of his heart.

"Neither a grandson nor a daughter!" Grand Secretary Yu sighed inwardly. Logically speaking, as the eldest grandson of the Yu family, Yu Zemo should have argued his case based on reason when his birth mother asked for help. Even if he argued unreasonably, it would still be human nature and would be seen as a symbol of loyalty and righteousness in the eyes of the world.

However, the eldest grandson of the Yu family has now become a cowardly and ruthless person who disregards his own mother in order to protect himself.

With this temperament, he will surely find it difficult to achieve great things in the future.

Yu Yanhong, on the other hand, is the opposite.

Despite being a noblewoman from a prestigious family, she is arrogant and belligerent, even attempting to interfere in her parents' fights. In this respect, Yu Yanhong is disrespectful to her elders. Although she has courage, she lacks wisdom. It would be one thing if her future husband is weak, but if he has his own opinions, this child's future life is likely to end in misery.

Grand Secretary Yu closed his eyes and sighed.

He never imagined that his illustrious reputation would be ruined by such a "talent" coming from his family!
After a long while, Elder Yu finally composed himself and said to Yu Zemo, "Zemo, you're not a child anymore. You must know about what's going on at home."

Although Grand Secretary Yu didn't concern himself with family matters, he knew Madam Fang's temperament well and knew that she would definitely discuss this matter with her two children, hoping that they could change their minds.

However, she really miscalculated this time. It was because of this incident that Grand Secretary Yu realized what his most urgent task was to solve.

"grandfather."

Yu Zemo nodded and hesitated, his eyes filled with confusion.

"You...that's all."

Grand Secretary Yu originally wanted to have a chat with his eldest grandson, but seeing his appearance, he immediately lost the desire to speak.

"grandfather!"

At this moment, Yu Yanhong spoke up: "Grandfather, please do something! Father and Mother... they are both dying..."

At this point, apart from the two "contestants" in the arena, no one else stepped forward to interfere. Yu Zhenghao and Madam Fang's brains had already been beaten to a pulp.

Grand Secretary Yu wasn't worried at all. He slowly turned his head and glanced at the scene, then said softly, "Alright, you should all stop now."

Although the voice was soft, the effect was indeed very good. As soon as Grand Secretary Yu finished speaking, Mr. and Mrs. Yu Zhenghao stopped.

Madam Fang had already vented her anger, so she was naturally willing to stop, especially since the person who spoke was the one she feared most.

"Hmph! You shrew!"

After Madam Fang stopped, Yu Zhenghao took several steps back, looking disheveled, and said angrily, "This is truly an insult to culture! An insult to culture!"

However, Yu Zhenghao still had a lot of affection for his wife. Even at this moment, he did not express his approval of Grand Secretary Yu, but kept changing the subject.

"okay!"

"Since you're unwilling to divorce your wife, then you can decide your own future and don't come looking for me again!"

Grand Secretary Yu saw through Yu Zhenghao's intentions and knew that he had deliberately put on this act with Madam Fang. So the old man simply stated bluntly, "In addition, you should not interfere in Yanran's marriage from now on. Your mother and I will take care of her affairs!"

"Ah? Father, this..."

"okay!"

Grand Secretary Yu lowered his voice and said authoritatively, "Do you really want me to explain everything clearly?"

"Ah? Yes! Yes! Yes!"

"Listen to Father! Listen to Father!"

Fearing that Yu Zhenghao would add fuel to the fire, Madam Fang quickly agreed.

Although she still wanted to use Yu Yanran's marriage to gain some benefits, protecting herself was the most important thing right now. If she were really divorced, not only would her own life be ruined, but Yu Yanhong's life would also be ruined.

With a divorced mother, what good marriage prospects could Yu Yanhong possibly have?
It was precisely because of this concern that Grand Secretary Yu handled things leniently. If it weren't for his love for his grandchildren, would you think his ruthlessness over the years as an official was a joke?
