Chapter 1237 Harmony
Mr. Liu was so distraught that his heart was broken, and he kicked Liu Dalang several times until he cried for his father and mother, knelt down and begged for mercy.
When he was tired from the beating, Mr. Liu ordered the two guards, "Drag Gu Lian'er down and put her in a firewood room. She is not allowed to eat without my instructions."
Although Mrs. Liu kept saying that Gu Lian'er was wronged, Mr. Liu also knew his wife's temperament very well.
Gu Lian'er was sweet-tongued and good at coaxing people, which won Madam Liu's favor. If Young Master Liu hadn't already been engaged to Dou, Madam Liu would have betrothed Gu Lian'er to Young Master Liu.
However, in fact, Gu Lian'er and Young Master Liu had been in secret for a long time. Young Master Liu wanted to cancel the marriage with the Dou family and marry Gu Lian'er as his legitimate wife, but Master Liu firmly suppressed him and refused to let him go. He retreats.
Young Master Liu was forced to marry Dou Da. In fact, the person he really liked was Gu Lian'er. This is why after Dou Da married him, no matter how much effort he put in, he couldn't get half of his favor.
Young Master Liu often made various excuses to dislike and neglect her, which made her really suffer for a long time.
Later, Dou Da accidentally broke into the affair between Gu Lian'er and Young Master Liu. Dou Da was shocked and heartbroken. Just when Young Master Liu thought she would make a big fuss, Dou Da chose to pretend that nothing happened. She seemed to know, which made Master Liu somewhat grateful to her.
Because of this, Master Liu came to her room more often during that period, and Qi'er was conceived during that period.
Not long after she became pregnant with Qi'er, the affair between Gu Lian'er and Young Master Liu was revealed by Madam Liu. Not only was Madam Liu not angry, but she took advantage of Dou Da's pregnancy and was unable to serve Young Master Liu and directly gave it to Gu Lian'er and Young Master Liu. Young Master Liu held a marriage ceremony, and the two finally got their wish.
After Young Master Liu married Gu Lian'er, the Liu family's mother and son were very distressed and made Gu Lian'er their concubine. They could not give her the status of their legitimate wife, and they felt somewhat guilty and pitiful towards her.
For this reason, the Liu family's mother and son also tried their best to suppress Dou Da and support Gu Lian'er so that Gu Lian'er could enjoy the blessings that the young lady of the Liu family should enjoy. Dou Da became the boss of the few of them. A maid-like person.
To say hello in the morning, she has to serve her mother-in-law for dinner. At noon, she has to stand by and serve tea when her mother-in-law takes care of the food. At night, when her mother-in-law takes a rest, she has to serve her mother-in-law and take off her clothes and shoes. In summer, she has to fan her mother-in-law. I still have to give my mother-in-law a pinch on her back.
In short, since Gu Lian'er married Young Master Liu, Mrs. Liu has used all kinds of tricks and excuses to provide Gu Lian'er and Young Master Liu with a world for two. On the contrary, she just doesn't want Dou Da to have free time to manage herself and Young Master Liu. Mr. Liu’s married life.
Mr. Liu has always seen this.
He always secretly teaches his wife behind his back, asking her to be more open-minded and not to always suppress his daughter-in-law. Instead, he praises a concubine who has fallen for herself like an ancestor.
"Even if you don't do it for the sake of your daughter-in-law, you still have to do it for the sake of the Dou family. Treat your daughter-in-law better. The power of the Dou family is no longer what it used to be. If this marriage were to be done now, we Liu The family may not be able to marry the eldest daughter of the Dou family.”
Mr. Liu didn't know that every time he taught his wife, Mrs. Liu not only didn't listen to him, but became even more disgusted with Mr. Dou. He always felt that it was because of her that she was repeatedly pointed at and scolded by her husband, which made her feel so shameless.
Therefore, every time Mr. Liu taught his wife, Dou would be severely punished by Mrs. Liu on the second day.
Because she doesn't like Dou Da, she doesn't even like or even hate the children she gave birth to, especially Li'er. Every time Li'er sees her, she always looks like she owes her, without even a smile. Therefore, she hated this granddaughter very much.
Because she didn't like Dou Daji's mother and son, Mrs. Liu loved Gu Lian'er even more.
Therefore, today Mrs. Liu kept saying that Gu Lian'er was wronged and that Li'er was lying, but Mr. Liu believed Li'er's words. Li'er is well-behaved and sensible, and never lies, not to mention that it is such a big matter of human life.
Master Liu was furious. After locking Gu Lian'er in the firewood shed, he still couldn't vent his anger. He then ordered the guards to lock Mrs. Liu and Young Master Liu into the ancestral hall and make them kneel in the ancestral hall. Repent and copy the Purana scriptures a hundred times for the unjust Qi'er who died.
When Mrs. Liu was being taken away, she cried with a sense of grievance and misery, "Master, I am the head mother of the Liu family, how can you imprison me? Master, I don't want to go to the ancestral hall, I... I don't want to go..."
Young Master Liu refused to accept it and struggled desperately. The guard had no choice but to cut him with a knife and he fainted.
After the Liu family's mother and son were taken away, the heartbroken Mr. Liu did not forget to apologize to Mrs. Dou, "Our family is unfortunate. The traitor has been locked up by me. Don't worry."
And Gu Lian'er, she killed Qi'er, so she must be prepared to pay life for life.
A murderous look flashed in Mr. Liu's eyes.
Mrs. Dou, however, snorted and made a request directly, "The eldest young master of the Liu family is so affectionate and righteous, but my eldest son, Dou, has become redundant. In this case, let the two children reconcile."
The matter of harmony and separation was not brought up by Dou Da, but by Mrs. Dou.
Dou Da covered his mouth and cried loudly, "Mom, if we divorced early, wouldn't Qi'er die?"
"Silly girl, Qi'er blocked the way of the child in Gu Lian'er's belly. As long as the Liu family lives with Gu Lian'er, Qi'er will be destined to die sooner or later."
A favored woman wants to put a child to death, but she can't catch her easily?
Mr. Liu was shocked and hurriedly cheered up and looked at Da Dou, "Da Dou, are you willing too?"
"I'm sorry, Dad, I... Dalang and I, actually... In fact, Dalang has never been to my house since I was pregnant with Qier."
In other words, even if she stays in the Liu family, she will only be a living widow, and she will be picked on by her mother-in-law everywhere. Why bother? Why sacrifice her whole life to serve others carefully? And also to be disliked by others.
After Dou Da lost his beloved son, he seemed to have become cold and harsh overnight, from a gentle and virtuous daughter-in-law to a cruel and ruthless woman.
Seeing her firm look, Mr. Liu lamented, "Dalang was also confused for a moment. Can't you give him another chance?"
"Is there a chance?" Dou laughed sadly, "I gave him many opportunities, but he only has Gu Lian'er in his heart, and he has never had me. In this case, I won't force it, and I'd better give it to him as soon as possible. It’s good to make room for Gu Lian’er.”
Mr. Liu became anxious and said hurriedly, "Gu Lian'er is just a concubine. She is not qualified to sit on the chair of Dalang's wife in this life. Dad promises you that in the future, he will never let Dalang bully you. You... …Would you like to think about it again?”
