Seeing his parents suffering now, Shao Ziqing felt guilty in his heart and said: "This matter is indeed caused by me, and I am willing to be punished."

There is a saying that belated affection is worthless than grass. Shao Ziqing's belated regret is indeed a bit late.

Jiang Zuiyao sat there with a cold face, saying nothing when she was very angry.

Shao Ziqing looked at his parents and said, "Father and mother, please go back and rest first. I will have a few words with Zui Yao alone."

Shao Jiang and Jiang didn't want to stop him, so they stood up and walked out slowly.

Li Yan on the side gave Linghui a wink, and Linghui followed Li Yan out. People left one after another. Cuiyun hugged the child and looked at Xijun, and the two of them also went out.

Immediately, Jiang Zuiyao and Shao Ziqing were the only two people left in the room.

The room suddenly became quiet. Jiang Zuiyao and Shao Ziqing didn't speak. They had their own emotions on their faces and just sat there silently.

After a while, Shao Ziqing said something like this: "Why did you lie to me? Lie to me that the child is Qin Nanxian's."

Jiang Zuiyao frowned: "Now, you still blame me? If you hadn't treated me like that back then, how could I have lied to you?"

This is what Shao Ziqing regrets the most. In the past, he could find reasons to justify everything he did to Jiang Zuiyao, but he could not defend himself when it came to hurting his child.

If Jiang Zuiyao had not lied to him, how could he harm his own child?

Shao Ziqing took a deep breath: "I don't blame you, I...I just..."

What he said was a little hesitant. Shao Ziqing didn't know how to say it or how to express it.

Jiang Zuiyao didn't want to hear it, and her voice was colder than before: "You know where this child came from."

Although this sentence is short, it contains too much.

It was Shao Ziqing who forced Jiang Zuiyao to conceive this child. There is no need to say anything else.

Jiang Zuiyao asked indifferently: "I'll ask you one last time whether you agree with the divorce or not."

The serious and cold words let Shao Ziqing know that Jiang Zuiyao was serious and not angry.

"I don't agree." In these four words, Shao Ziqing said it categorically and without hesitation.

Such an answer was not surprising to Jiang Zuiyao, but it did make her feel unhappy.

But Jiang Zuiyao no longer wanted to dwell too much on the matter of peace and separation, and immediately said: "If you don't agree with peace and separation, then I will make it clear to you today."

Jiang Zuiyao had already had this intention, and taking advantage of today's momentum, he said: "From today on, you and I are just husband and wife in name only. I only live in a house in the Shao family's courtyard, and I pay you the Shao family fifty dollars every month."

The two silver coins should be used to pay for your Shao family's house and to serve my servants."

In this way, Jiang Zuiyao wanted to draw a clear line between herself and the Shao family.

Shao Ziqing frowned: "Why are you doing this?"

Jiang Zuiyao replied with a clear look on her face: "Aren't you unwilling to marry me from the beginning? I also have the intention to break up with you, but you don't agree to divorce, so let's keep the same. I won't use it in vain.

You Shao family earn every stitch, not to mention every dish and soup from your Shao family. Fifty taels of silver is enough to cover the expenses of the East Hospital for a month, or even more than enough."

It was Shao Ziqing who wanted to talk to Jiang Zuiyao alone, but when Jiang Zuiyao finished speaking, he blocked everything Shao Ziqing originally wanted to say.

Jiang Zuiyao looked at Shao Ziqing's embarrassed face, not caring about what he was thinking, and said: "As for the child, I will take care of it by myself, and you don't have to look at it."

When mentioning the child Shao Chuyi, Shao Ziqing finally couldn't bear it and said: "No, that's my daughter too, I can't help but look at it."

Jiang Zuiyao snorted coldly: "Your daughter? You almost killed her yourself. Are you worthy of being her father?"

Shao Ziqing was also anxious, and his knees were blue and stinging. He stood up without hesitation. For the sake of his daughter, his only child, he ignored the redness and swelling on his face and shouted with his eyes wide open: "Then why not?"

It’s not because you lied to me! How could I not be angry that you were pregnant with someone else’s child behind my back? If you hadn’t lied to me in the first place, how could I have done this?”

Jiang Zuiyao was also anxious. Due to her weak body, she did not dare to shout with all her strength, but her momentum was not bad at all and she said calmly: "You still have the nerve to accuse me? It's obvious that you did the evil first! Our grudges and grudges between you and me,

I'm too lazy to tell you clearly. Only you, Shao Ziqing, owe me, and I don't owe you anything! If I tell you not to let you look after the child, you won't be allowed to look at it! If you don't want to listen, I will treat you when the child grows up.

Tell her verbatim when you hurt her, and then we will see if the child recognizes you as its father!"

Jiang Zuiyao spoke very quickly, but every word was so clear, and the anger on his face was unwavering.

What else could Shao Ziqing say? It was him who did it, and no matter what he said, it would be unreasonable.

Looking at Jiang Zuiyao in front of me, and then thinking about Jiang Zuiyao who just married into the Shao family back then, she is a completely different person.

This was the last thing Shao Ziqing wanted to admit, but now, he had to admit it.

Whether it was Jiang Zuiyao who had changed her appearance or whether she had the support of the Queen Mother, Shao Ziqing had indeed admitted it now.

I stood there in silence for a while. After all, I didn't say a single word that I wanted to say that was buried in my stomach. I sighed deeply: "I only ask you one thing. I will spare you the punishment of my parents. The rest of my life

One person is responsible for it.”

After saying these words, Shao Ziqing was about to leave, but Jiang Zuiyao had to speak clearly and said: "I tell you, the reason why I agreed to exempt your parents from the punishment is because I am only with you in this matter.

Regarding it, it is indeed innocent to implicate your parents, and it is definitely not because you stayed to intercede with me. Just because of you, you have no say in front of me now. "

There was a sting in these words, which hurt Shao Ziqing's heart.

He left silently, and the arrogance of the past was no longer visible at all.

Before leaving the yard, he took a look at Shao Chuyi's residence. With a somewhat reluctant and complicated look, he was helped out by Chi Rong.

Xiyun and Linghui walked in. Seeing Jiang Zuiyao's face turned red with anger, they advised, "Master is not fully recovered yet, so don't make yourself angry."

Jiang Zuiyao swallowed her foam, swallowed the anger in her heart, and said: "You can go to the palace now."

Xiyun asked: "Master, do you want to avoid the punishment of the master and his wife?"

Jiang Zuiyao nodded: "Well, do you know how to tell the Queen Mother?"

Xiyun also nodded: "I know, I will go now."

As soon as Xijun left, Linghui said: "Young madam, Li Yan went out as soon as the eldest young master left."

Without asking, Jiang Zuiyao knew that Li Yan must have gone to look for Shaojiang. After thinking about it, he asked, "Did he hear what I, Shao Ziqing, said?"

Linghui thought about it and said: "When the young lady and the young master were arguing just now, Xiyun reprimanded the other servants, but Li Yan was standing in the courtyard, so he should be able to hear a few words."
