Chapter 38 Severing ties
Zhou Ran said calmly: "You can take care of the fish yourself, I have something else to do."

"What's the matter with you? I think you've become ambitious after getting married. I have to teach you a lesson today, you little bitch."

As Mrs. Zheng spoke, she raised her palm and slapped Zhou Ran. Zhou Ran reached out and grabbed her wrist and reminded her coldly: "Grandma, have you forgotten something? Has the marriage between the son of the Cheng family of Qin County and his cousin been decided? ?”

"You!!!" Mrs. Zheng was reminded by Zhou Ran, and she immediately remembered what Zhou Ran said when she went to Ye's house before. She glared at Zhou Ran angrily, and said with disgust: "Since you don't want to work, just give it to me quickly. I'm going away, don't stand in my way."

"That's not possible. I still have something to do with my father." After Zhou Ran said that, she stepped into the main room.

In the room, Zhou Heng was talking to Zhou Siqi. Su and Zhou Ying were sitting aside with smiles on their faces, looking very much like a harmonious and loving family of four.

Seeing Zhou Ran come in, Zhou Heng frowned, "What are you doing here?"

Zhou Ran raised the corner of her mouth and said with a smile: "What? Did I come in and disturb your family of four getting along?"

Zhou Henghan frowned and yelled: "Zhou Ran, what nonsense are you talking about here? Who taught you to talk to me with this attitude?"

Zhou Ran said with a playful smile: "Dad, don't be angry. I was just joking. I came here today to ask you for something."

Zhou Heng looked at Zhou Ran, always feeling that this daughter was a little different from what he remembered, and he didn't know if it was taught by the Ye family. Thinking like this, Zhou Heng looked at Zhou Ran and looked a little defensive, "What's the matter?"

"It's not a big deal." Zhou Ran sat down on a chair nearby and said leisurely: "As you know, Ye Sanlang is not in good health. Although the Ye family has some wealth, the betrothal gift alone was given to our family before. Thirty taels of silver, plus this year's expenses, seeing that my family has no money to give Sanlang medicine, I thought about borrowing some from my father first."

After Zhou Ran finished speaking, before Zhou Heng could speak, Zhou Ying had already jumped to her feet and said: "Zhou Ran, don't even think about it!"

Zhou Ran raised her eyebrows and glanced at Zhou Ying, then said calmly: "I'm talking to my dad, not your dad. What's the matter with you?"

Zhou Heng's eyebrows skipped a beat after hearing Zhou Ran's words, and he said sternly: "Why are you talking to your cousin? You are being disrespectful to your uncle."

Seeing Zhou Heng defending her, Zhou Ying smiled proudly at Zhou Ran.

Zhou Ran shrugged indifferently, "Dad, if someone really disrespects the uncle, it won't be me. Let's not talk about disrespecting the uncle. Let's talk about borrowing money."

Zhou Ying on the side was about to speak again, but Su Shi pulled her back, and she reluctantly stopped.

Zhou Heng had some doubts about whether Zhou Ran knew something. He stared at Zhou Ran for a while, and when he saw that Zhou Ran showed no abnormality, he sighed and said with a confused look on his face: "It's not that dad doesn't want to help you, it's just that at home, I really don’t have any money left to support your cousin’s education.”

Zhou Ran shook her head and said: "Dad, please don't lie to me. I didn't know before, but now I know better. I'm afraid I can't afford the clothes on my cousin without even a tael of silver. And the cousin The hairpin on my sister’s head and the bracelet on my aunt’s hand, why don’t these add up to more than a dozen taels of silver?”

"Dad, you have money to spend with your aunt and cousin, but you don't have the money to lend me money to buy medicine for my husband?"

Now not only Zhou Heng, but also Su Shi was frightened. She covered the bracelet on her wrist with one hand and said sharply: "Stop messing around here. This bracelet was given to me by my mother's family." Su. Su's natal family is in a town next door and runs an oil press. They are quite wealthy. In the past, Su always went back to her natal family once or twice a month, and she would stay for one or two nights each time.

Now that I think about it, Su probably went to the county town to find Zhou Heng every time she "returned to her parents' home".

"Auntie said yes." Zhou Ran said nonchalantly, and then said to Zhou Heng: "Dad, if you don't agree to lend me money today, then I will go to the county to find you later."

"Zhou Ran, don't go too far." Zhou Ying couldn't help shouting: "Your husband-in-law can't take medicine, what does it have to do with us? You don't even think about taking a penny from our house."

Zhou Ran shook her head, "Did cousin forget that Ye Sanlang was originally your husband-in-law? Oh, by the way, when I go to see my father, I can also talk to others about the marriage change at home."

"Zhou Ran, what do you want?" Zhou Siqi, who had been silent until now, couldn't help but speak out.

"I won't tell you, I just want to borrow some money." After Zhou Ran said that, she looked at Zhou Heng again and sneered: "Dad, unless you and I are no longer father and daughter, otherwise I won't be able to get any money today. , I will come looking for you again. If I can’t find you at home, I will go to the Liu family in the county to look for you.”

Zhou Heng was worried about Zhou Ran's difficulty. After hearing Zhou Ran's words, he had an idea, "You unfilial daughter, I will no longer recognize you as my daughter today. Get out of here."

Zhou Ran smiled mockingly and said, "Dad, can you disown my daughter if you say you don't?"

"Hmph! There's nothing wrong with it. I'll write a divorce letter now. From now on, you will have nothing to do with my Zhou family."

Zhou Heng said and asked Zhou Siqi to get pen and paper.

Zhou Ran was happy in her heart, but had a look of fear on her face, "Dad, are you serious? How can you be so heartless? I'm your only daughter?"

"I would rather not have an unfilial daughter like you." Zhou Heng said and quickly wrote the divorce letter, put his fingerprints on it, stuffed it into Zhou Ran's hand, and said: "Get out of here, don't let me see you again."

"Dad, you are so cruel!" Zhou Ran yelled in collapse, holding the divorce letter, and ran out of Zhou's house with a heartbroken look on her face.

Zhou Ran cried loudly as she ran, causing the villagers in Dakui Village to run out of their homes to watch the fun.

An old woman stopped Zhou Ran and asked with concern: "Second girl, what's wrong with you?"

Zhou Ran stopped, took out the handkerchief and wiped her eyes, letting herself cry more sincerely. Then she removed the handkerchief and sobbed: "Grandma Wang, my dad...my dad...he broke up with me." It’s a female relationship…”

"Ah! Why is this?" someone in the audience couldn't help but ask.

"I...I don't know. In the past...in the past, my father only loved my cousins. Last year, the Ye family wanted to marry my father. I thought that Ye Sanlang was good at studying and would have a good future. I gave the marriage proposal to my cousin, and then... something happened to Ye Sanlang. My cousin didn't want to marry, so my father forced me to marry, and I got married obediently, but he actually wanted to sever ties with me. I really It’s so uncomfortable!”
