Rebirth: The Courtyard Bride Is Cool and Radiant

Chapter 875: Ye Bingkun’s Dilemma

The nephew from her maternal home blames his aunt for being useless, not persuading the Ye Family from taking action in time, and letting the Ye Family send his sister-in-law to jail.

He directly gave her harsh words, stating that he would no longer recognize her as his aunt, and if Zhang Baoxiang were to be bullied at her in-laws in the future, he would not travel to Beijing to stand up for her.

These words essentially severed their kinship.

She truly found it hard to argue back, feeling caught in the crossfire.

How could she not have tried to persuade them? But the Main Consort and her husband were furious, how could they listen to her?

Moreover, her father-in-law had spoken, telling her husband to keep an eye on her, saying that it was indeed their household who had let down the eldest brother, forbidding her to secretly go find the elder brother and sister-in-law to plead for the maternal home. If she didn’t listen, she wouldn’t have a place in the Ye Family anymore.

During that period, she was so anxious that blisters formed all over her mouth, fretting helplessly.

Because of these matters, she couldn’t show a good face to Wen Yue anymore, feeling that she too was an ingrate; despite everything, she was her real aunt, yet she hadn’t uttered a single word of plea for the maternal family.

No matter how reluctant Zhang Baoxiang was, with her father-in-law and husband around, she couldn’t stir up any trouble.

She wanted to pack up and leave, but her husband had just whispered threateningly in her ear: ”Zhang Baoxiang, if you dare cause any trouble today, tomorrow we’ll get a divorce.”

Upon hearing this, Zhang Baoxiang dared not stir up any more trouble and had to place the items in the corner, going to the kitchen to help tidy up the dishes.

Because of her lack of tact, Xia Dongxue felt uneasy and did not remind her that the people hired today to cook would tidy up the dishes.

Her sister-in-law had acted badly and committed illegal acts, yet she felt no guilt and blamed them for being unmerciful. Truly, she didn’t know how her mind worked. If not for the sake of second uncle and third brother Ye Bingkun, they wouldn’t have spared her.

Daring to give her attitude, she was truly spoiled.

Ye Bingkun also noticed that Zhang Baoxiang’s behavior lately had already irritated the elder sister-in-law, and if this continued, relations between the two families would only become more strained.

The elder brother and sister-in-law wouldn’t implicate him and the two children, but if Zhang Baoxiang kept this up, over time, anyone would lose patience.

He couldn’t help but sigh inwardly.

At this time, Wen Yue stepped forward: ”Dad, Baoping and I have discussed and thought it might be good for the two families to meet after the new year. What do you think?”

Ye Bingkun looked at Wen Yue, eyes filled with guilt.

He understood in his heart that after the incident was exposed, the one who suffered the most was Wen Yue; he wanted to shelter her and protect her, but his wife was relentlessly stubborn, treating everyone like they were air.

He had said his piece, scolded her, but she refused to change even a bit, leaving him truly helpless.

At times, he thought, it’s better to simply get a divorce, but there were two little ones below, and if they really divorced, the ones hurt would be those two; it wouldn’t be good for all three to lose their mother.

Ye Bingkun glanced at Jiao Baoping behind Wen Yue: ”Wen Yue, marriage is a lifelong matter, it’s best to take your time.”

He had already decided that he would look into the Jiao Family, and if their reputation was satisfactory and Wen Yue liked them, he naturally wouldn’t object.

But if the Jiao Family was hard to deal with, even if the daughter was against it, he would have to disrupt this matter.

Wen Yue bore no resentment towards her father but didn’t wish to return to that home, wanting to quickly build a small home of her own: ”Dad, I understand what you mean, Baoping is genuinely good to me.”
