Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation Mother He was hysterical.
"Mom, I'm not the one slapping your face now. You're the one slapping your son's face. Joe Qiao is your daughter-in-law. Aren't you putting on a show for me to see by torturing her like this?" He Shaochen's voice wasn't loud, but every word he said was shocking.
Mother He's expression became more and more embarrassed. Her gaze drifted. "Mom is doing this for Joe Qiao's sake. Look at her now. She's so unpresentable. Walking beside you in the future, she'll only embarrass you."
He Shaochen looked at her steadily. "Mom, are these your heartfelt words?"
When Mother He heard this, she nodded. "Yes, of course."
Seeing that He Shaochen didn't have any reaction, she squeezed out a smile and continued, "Mom is doing this for her own good. Who didn't go through the same thing? She left home midway, so her starting line is much lower than the average young lady from an aristocratic family. It's only right for her to suffer a little now, isn't it? "
"Is that so?" He Shaochen's eyes drooped slightly. His tone was neither light nor heavy, neither fast nor slow. It was as if he was affirming Mother He's words, but also as if he was simply responding.
Mother He saw that her son's expression seemed to soften a little, but before she could catch her breath, she heard him say calmly, "But I don't want my wife to suffer as much as those young ladies from aristocratic families."
Mother He's expression changed instantly. "Shaochen!"
He Shaochen's gaze was firm and unwavering as he said to his mother, "I only want my wife to live happily every day. The lower others degrade her, the higher I will raise her. If they dare to despise her for being a commoner, I'll pamper her like a princess. Let's see who else dares to say anything!"
"You're crazy! What's so good about that girl that you're doing this for? You weren't like this in the past! Tell me, did that woman say something to you? "Mother He was about to go crazy. She didn't expect that after saying so much, she would get this result.
He Shaochen's expression was still indifferent. He said calmly, "I'm not crazy. Joe Qiao didn't say anything to me. She never mentioned to me how she was treated during the day. However, I'm not blind. Mom, if you continue to push her like this, I'm not sure if I'll be driven crazy by you."
"You said Mom forced you?" Mother He shrieked. She glared at He Shaochen and said word by word, "Are you forcing Mother now, or is Mother forcing you? You're talking to me like that because of that woman? "
"Mom, if you use this method to deal with Joe Qiao again, I'm not sure if I can still be so calm."
"You!!" Mother He's eyes widened even more.
He Shaochen said word by word, "Mom, your son wants to be willful for once for the person he loves. If I've offended you, please forgive me."
As he said that, he bowed slightly and continued, "Then, from tomorrow onwards, Joe Qiao only needs to study for half a day. As for whether it's in the morning or in the afternoon, it's up to her to decide. Do you have any objections?"
No objections?
That's a lot of objections!
Mother He was so angry that her whole body was trembling. However, she couldn't say a single word. Because no matter what she said, He Shaochen's decision would not change.
Therefore, she could only tremble as she watched He Shaochen leave. There was nothing she could do.
After a long while, this elegant and noble lady let out a hysterical scream, and there was already the sound of rummaging through chests and cabinets.
When Father He came back, he saw Mother He was flustered and exasperated as she smashed things. No matter how the people around her tried to persuade her, they could only look at the mess in the house.
A servant came forward and told Father He everything that had happened that night. Father He only frowned slightly. He didn't say anything and walked straight to the study.
When Mother He saw that her husband didn't even have the intention to persuade her and directly left her side, her heart full of anger seemed to have found a place to vent. She rushed over to Father He and blocked his way. She said angrily, "Don't you have anything to say?"
Father He looked at his angry wife. His expression was the same as He Shaochen's. He said calmly, "What do you want me to say?"
"Do you know what your son said today? Do you know that he actually disobeyed me for that woman? All these years, he has never done that. You don't care! "
"How do you want me to care?" Father He asked in return.
Mother He was stunned. Before she could say anything, Father He said, "Do you want me to criticize him?"
"I …"
"What reason? Because he disobeyed his own mother? " Father He's gaze turned cold. "I don't think my son would disobey his mother indiscriminately. Yifu, you went too far. You touched your son's reverse scale. Who's to blame?"
Mother He's expression suddenly became very ugly. She gritted her teeth. "You want to say that woman is Shaochen's reverse scale? Are you kidding me? "
"If you don't want to accept reality, then I have nothing to say."
"He Guanrui! That's your son! What kind of attitude is this? You don't care about him at all. He's so infatuated with that woman. You don't care? "
Mother He rebuked angrily. Her eyes were burning with anger.
Father He glanced impatiently at Mother He. His usually calm voice suddenly became cold. "Yifu, isn't Joe Qiao learning etiquette these days? I suggest you go and learn as well. You don't have any of the elegance of a rich family's daughter. You're just like a shrew in the downtown area. "
"You're saying I'm a shrew?" Mother He's voice became sharper.
Father He didn't seem to want to say anything more to her. He had planned to go to the study, but as soon as he moved, he felt that he wouldn't be able to get a moment of peace at home. So he turned around and went downstairs.
Mother He was shocked. "Where are you going?"
"I'm going out to be alone."
"You!" Mother He jogged to catch up with Father He. She grabbed his wrist and her expression became very ugly. "He Guanrui, tell me honestly. Do you have a woman outside?"
Otherwise, why would he be so indifferent to his son? Why would he go out in the middle of the night?
This wasn't the first time. It had happened many times in the past. Father He didn't come home at night. When she asked him where he went, he wouldn't tell her. Mother He had sent people to investigate, but they didn't find anything.
This time, it was useless to ask.
Father He easily bypassed Mother He and said coldly, "Yifu, mind your own business. Don't always do things that are thankless. Your son isn't stupid. If you insist on your own opinion, I won't stop you. But if you have a falling out with your son, I won't help you."
With that, he left.
