Chapter 828: Yuezheng Ting’s Sister
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Yuezheng Yan had become increasingly tyrannical, believing that her husband’s family should conform to her every whim and mood. Within just six months, she had managed to offend not only her husband’s entire family but also their relatives. Despite their resentment, they dared not confront her due to her status as a member of the influential Yuezheng Family.
Although Yuezheng Yan was arrogant and overbearing, she had not engaged in any cruel or lethal acts, leading her husband’s family to tolerate her behavior.
However, Qi Yun soon discovered something shocking. Yuezheng Yan had arranged marriages for his two serving maids with elderly, unattractive widowers from rural areas. She had gone to great lengths to find such matches.
As a result, the two serving maids were subjected to a wretched existence. When Qi Yun learned of their plight, one of the maids had already succumbed to the relentless torment, while the other had aged prematurely, bearing scars on her forehead and losing all her former beauty.
Filled with horror and anguish, Qi Yun immediately brought the surviving maid back home and placed her in a convent for her safety. Determined to uncover the truth, he confronted Yuezheng Yan about her actions.
Yuezheng Yan insisted that she had found two excellent suitors for the serving maids and had generously provided them with a substantial sum of money to live a comfortable life, Qi Yun, trusting his legal wife, believed that she had acted in their best interest.
Unbeknownst to Qi Yun, Yuezheng Yan’s intentions were far from noble. She was leading the maids down a path of despair and destruction.
However, Yuezheng Yan showed no remorse. Instead, she began to create a tumultuous scene, accusing Qi Yun of rekindling his relationship with the maids and questioning his love for her as his legal wife. She cried, shouted, and hurled vulgar insults at Qi Yun, even seeking support from her parents and Madame Yuezheng.
Ms.Mi Junior and Madame Yuezheng, being fond of Yuezheng Yan, became incensed upon hearing her side of the story. In the end, Qi Yun was compelled to apologize, bowing dovvn to Yuezheng Yan’s demands.
Yuezheng Yan may have obtained her perceived justice, but she had lost the support and respect she once had from Qi Yun’s family.
Qi Yun eventually made the difficult decision to distance himself from Yuezheng Yan.
Although she appeared to hold a position of authority within Qi Yun’s family, the truth was that no one genuinely liked her or regarded her as a true family member.
It was during this time that Yuezheng Yan discovered Qi Yun had a mistress who had even given birth to a son and a daughter.
Overwhelmed by jealousy and rage, Yuezheng Yan assembled a group of her own men and stormed the mistress’ residence with the intention of harming her and selling her children.
Upon learning of the situation, Qi Yun rushed to the scene to intervene. Unfortunately, the children had already been sold to intermediaries, and his mistress had been subjected to a brutal beating, losing consciousness multiple times.
Qi Yun’s anger surged within him. He rescued his mistress and instructed his men to protect her while he set off to find and secure the safety of the children.
Meanwhile, Yuezheng Yan’s mental state deteriorated further. She wept uncontrollably and retreated to the solace of her own home.
News of the shocking incident spread throughout the province, leaving no doubt that few would tolerate their husbands having mistresses. However, there was no support or sympathy to be found for Yuezheng Yan in the aftermath.
The mistress’s actions were undoubtedly immoral, but taking her life was not the solution. Teaching her a lesson and holding her accountable for her deeds would have been more appropriate.
Yuezheng Yan’s decision to sell her husband’s children to an agent instead of bringing them home was truly horrifying and inhumane.
Yuezheng Yan had never enjoyed a favorable reputation, and her behavior within her husband’s family only added fuel to the rumors that circulated about her. She consistently disregarded the authority of the elder family members and imposed her will upon others. Additionally, her failure to bear any children and her blatant disregard for virtuous conduct only furthered her negative image. It was not surprising that her husband might consider leaving her, given the circumstances. Many sighed in resignation, accepting the situation as a natural consequence.
When Ms.Mi Junior heard about the rumors surrounding her daughter, she refused to believe them. Instead, she attributed the spread of such stories to jealousy from individuals who were envious of her daughter’s prosperity and well-being..
