1396 Confrontation
“It is your good, dear son who doesn’t want me to stay in his room! He doesn’t like me!” Ms. Zhao was so furious that she shouted at Madame Duke North.
She admitted that her family was not up to the same level as Duke North Mansion, but she had a better choice as well! Duke North did have the rank, but he almost lost his life a while ago. Though he was cured, every noble family understood that Duke North was not healthy. Also, Duke North Mansion had no foundation, all they had was the title.
Madame Duke North spoke many nice things to her, and told her mother that she would be treated well at Duke North Mansion.
That was why the Zhao Family decided to have a marital relationship with Duke North Mansion, but what happened after she came to the mansion?
Duke North treated her very politely, and if that was his personality, she would be okay with it, but it was not because he had a personality like this – it was because Duke North loved someone else and did not like her at all. However, she was a married woman and could not possibly go home because of this, right? So she had to admit defeat and had to pretend that she was not aware of this.
She had already demeaned herself to this degree, but Duke North did not accept her kindness. He treated her as if she were some disgusting thing and ordered the guard to drive her out.
He told her that he did not need her care.
Okay, fine, she could get over it, but what about her mother-in-law? What was she talking about here?
She was looking down on her family and her?
She could tolerate the humiliation a few times, but when she was calling her family names, she could not stand it any more! Her family had never done anything bad!
“Impossible!” Madame Duke North denied. “I know my son well! He is gentle, kind, and responsible. You are his wife so he won’t drive you away! Stop causing misunderstandings and blaming Chenyi for it.”
Madame Duke North sounded very resolute.
She just could not believe it. She raised her son and took care of him, and she knew him very well!
On the other hand, Ms. Zhao was an outsider so she might be up to something.
Ms. Zhao must have lost the intention of taking care of Chenyi because he was not doing well. She was not going to forget that.
Madame Duke North looked very annoyed. Things had never been easy at Duke North Mansion, because people kept bullying them since she was alone. Chenyi was injured and she was alone in supporting the whole family, so if Ms. Zhao took advantage to cause trouble, she was not going to retreat.
This was Duke North Mansion. It was not going to be looked down on by anyone.
Ms. Zhao felt her anger increasing as well. She had been promised everything good before she was married, and she had thought that her mother-in-law was a very kind person, but in fact, she was a very suspicious and annoying person.
She had nothing to fear so she said straightforwardly, “You can confront your son about this.”
