Chapter 944
Old Lady Tang wanted to deny it, but Old Man Tang slapped the table, “You think I’m a fool, don’t you? They have evidence. Your blabbering Zhang Cuigu has already confessed to it!”
Old Lady Tang had spent her whole life trying to figure out her husband and therefore knew his temper thoroughly. When she saw the situation at hand, she realised that this matter could not be concealed any longer.
She immediately claimed that she was wronged, “It was all her idea, I didn’t know anything about it. She was the one who walked around the streets and had the details about everything. She instigated me to say that Third Aunt Lanhua had a business and asked us to join in exchange of giving her a few dollars in commission. I talked to my daughter about it, but her Third Aunt didn’t agree, so that was it. Old Lady Zhang didn’t get the commission and was resentful, so she reported them to vent her anger. I really didn’t know at the time and only found out later.”
Lin Lan said coldly, “Old Lady Zhang confessed that you instigated her, but you’re saying otherwise. Either way, this is a matter between you two, and I don’t care.”
Second Brother Tang said angrily, “My mother doesn’t lie. If she says it’s Old Lady Zhang who did it, then it is what it is. Why won’t you believe her?”
What? Lin Lan looked at him like a fool. Do you think your mother doesn’t lie? She doesn’t lie? Didn’t you feel hurt when you were beaten just now?
Seeing that his son was still confused, Old Man Tang scolded, “You get out of here,” He then glared at his wife, “Remember what I said when I proposed marriage to you. If you’re going to pretend in front of me, then you best bet that I will have you divorced and sent back to your mother’s home.”
Old Lady Tang immediately became shaky as she covered her face and sobbed, “I have been married to you for so many years and we have a lot of children. Why are you still saying things like this to me? Why do you want a divorce just for this? Hurry up, get a rope for me…”
