The daughter of the metaphysical fortune teller: she is the best at eating melons to prolong life

Chapter 153 The opportunity to earn money from incense is here again
Seeing that her son was harmed so badly by Zhou Yingying, and that the old lady not only did not blame her but also wanted to keep her, Mrs. Dong felt angry and sad.

She wanted to object, but her mother-in-law might not listen to her, and her husband was a filial son and listened to his mother-in-law in everything.

Seeing that Mrs. Dong looked unhappy, Zheng Hongzhi said hesitantly, "Mother, let's let my cousin go back to the Zhou residence. Her parents are still alive, so it's not good for her to stay in our residence forever."

"What's wrong with this? I only have this one niece, can't you tolerate her? You two are not as filial as Yingying.

Son, is the baby in Yingying's belly really not yours? Think about it again, aren't you two already doing it? You were just drunk at the time and didn't think about it?"

Xie Lan was speechless. Was Old Madam Zheng crazy? She actually still thought that the child in Yingying's belly was her grandson.

"Madam, your niece is really filial to you. I saw your face and she will be very good to you in the future. If you don't like your daughter-in-law, she will help you kill her.

You don't want your own grandson, but the bastard in her belly. Zhou Yingying will be very filial and help you get rid of Rui Ge'er to make way for her son.

By the way, she will also let your son Zheng Hongzhi go far away to do business on the pretext of making money.

In this way, your daughter-in-law and grandson are all dead, and your son is not at home, so she can feel free to poison you and make you dumb.

If he is happy, he may give you some leftovers. But if he is unhappy, you may only be able to eat pig food and sleep in a doghouse.

When the Zheng Mansion becomes your niece's world, she will let her lover move in, and the three of them will happily enjoy the money your son has worked so hard to earn outside."

Seeing that the old lady's face was already darker than the bottom of a pot, Xie Lan still felt it was not enough and stabbed her in the heart again, "How about it, old lady, are you satisfied with your niece's filial piety?"

"This is just nonsense. I don't believe Yingying would treat me, her aunt, like this."

Some guests saw that Madam Zheng was still defending Zhou Yingying and couldn't help shaking their heads, "Madam, don't disbelieve it.

Miss Xie is a Kun Daoist, and she is very good at mystical arts. Since she can tell from your face, you'd better believe her, otherwise your family will be destroyed."

"Tsk, I don't know what you are thinking. You don't want your own son or grandson, but would rather have such a vicious niece. If you are poisoned by her and become stupid in the future, you deserve it."

"No, no, Yingying has always treated me as her own mother. She won't treat me like that."

Xie Lan sneered, "She thinks you are her real mother? You think too much. Go and see if she has taken away all the money in your mansion."

"This is impossible."

Seeing the man dressed as a butler beside him with a flickering look in his eyes, Xie Lan gave Tiechui a wink.

Swish!
Tiechui put the sword on the butler's neck without saying a word.

The old lady was still immersed in Zhou Yingying's past filial piety to her, but the housekeeper directly shattered her beautiful dream, "Don't kill me, don't kill me.

It's none of my business. All the money in the mansion was taken away by my cousin. I didn't embezzle a penny."

The old lady's expression finally changed. "What did you say? All the money in the mansion is gone?"

The housekeeper stammered, "Also, there are still three hundred taels left."

The old lady's eyes went dark.

Although her son Zheng Hongzhi was not good at doing business, the wealth her husband left behind was no less than 100,000 taels. How could it all be gone?

Thinking about becoming penniless in the future, the old lady finally got anxious, "Yingying, where is the money in the mansion? Did you really take it all out?"

"Aunt, Yingying is innocent. Yingying has never embezzled a penny from the mansion.

I helped my cousin's aunt manage the household expenses and was only responsible for taking care of the daily affairs of the mansion. As for how the money disappeared, I had no idea.

Auntie should ask my cousin’s wife about this matter. After all, she was the one who managed the household expenses before. Who knows if my cousin’s wife hid the money or spent it all.”

Seeing that Zhou Yingying still wanted to put the blame on herself, Mrs. Dong finally got angry.

"Mother, I have been married to the Zheng family for so many years. I believe you know me better than my husband. If you still insist on keeping my cousin in the Zheng Mansion, then Rui Ge'er and I will leave."

Zheng Hongzhi was still shocked that Zhou Yingying was a double-faced person. Hearing Dong's words, he hadn't reacted yet, "You and Rui Ge'er are leaving? Where are you going?"

Dong looked at him coldly and said word by word, "I want to divorce you. From now on, you can go with your mother and cousin.

I will take Rui Ge'er back to my parents' home. My Dong family may not be as rich as your Zheng family, but at least my son and I will not be killed by others."

She could give up the management rights of the household and could tolerate Zheng Hongzhi's cowardice, but she could not let her son be killed by Zhou Yingying, that vicious woman.

"Why are we getting a divorce? Yunniang, the child can't live without me as his father. Rui Ge'er is fine now. I promise that I will pay more attention to him in the future and won't let him get hurt again.

My cousin should know she is wrong and won’t harm Rui Ge’er again.” Zheng Hongzhi didn’t want to divorce, but he was worried that his mother would be unhappy if he sent Zhou Yingying away.

Dong had been married to Zheng Hongzhi for several years, and their relationship was pretty good. If Zhou Yingying hadn't caused so much trouble, she actually didn't want to divorce.

Seeing her husband staring at her and her son, Mrs. Dong gritted her teeth and said, "Rui Ge'er will be sad without you as his father, but he won't lose his life because of it.

I'll give you one last chance. Choose between me and your cousin. From now on, only one of us can stay in the Zheng Mansion. Either she or me. Either me or she."

Seeing that Dong had finally stood up, Xie Lan felt that she was not too stupid and it was worth it for her to save Rui Ge'er.

Zheng Hongzhi said a lot of nice things, but seeing that Dong was still determined for him to choose one, he could only look at his mother helplessly.

Zhou Yingying was hoping that Mrs. Dong would divorce quickly. As long as she and that brat were no longer together, she believed that she would be able to win over her aunt and cousin's hearts quickly.

Her lover was just a gangster, with no power or influence, and his family didn't even have a decent house, which was no match for the four-story mansion of the Zheng Mansion.

"Cousin, Yingying has admired you for many years. If you drive me away, what will happen to me and the child? He is also your flesh and blood."

Although the old lady loved Yingying, she was annoyed by the fact that Zhou Yingying secretly took away 100,000 taels from the mansion.

"Yingying, your aunt is old, but she is not stupid. I know whose child you are carrying.

I may not mind your abuse of Rui Ge, but you must give me back the money and property you took away intact, otherwise don't blame me for being rude.

Also, you can go back to live in your Zhou family from now on. I have a filial daughter-in-law, so I won’t bother you anymore.”

"Aunt, please believe me. I really have never taken a penny from the mansion. You asked me to go somewhere to get the money back for you."

"Since you are unwilling to pay back the money, I can only report it to the authorities and let them investigate."

"Even my aunt doesn't believe me. Is she trying to force me to die to prove my innocence? If I die, will my aunt be able to face my mother?"

Seeing Zhou Yingying was willing to take the risk, the old lady was also in a dilemma.

Her niece was pregnant, she couldn't force her to death.

Seeing the old lady's anger and helplessness, Xie Lan smiled again. It seemed that he could make some money from offering incense to the ancestor today.
