The Farm Girl's Charismatic Fortune-Chapter 386 - 382 Report to the Authorities

"It’s not you who divorced my cousin! It’s my eldest cousin who wants to divorce her husband, and you don’t have the right to divorce her." At this moment, Ruo Xuan entered the room.

Behind her followed Old Lady Zhang, Zhang Chengye, and Liu Wenyao.

Feng’s Old Lady sneered upon hearing Ruo Xuan’s words, "Since ancient times, there has only been the concept of divorcing wives, not husbands. It seems that the Princess of the Ninth Prince still does not understand that a woman should regard her husband as heaven. Moreover, today Zhang Family has violated the seven grounds for divorce, and my son has not done anything wrong. What grounds do you have for divorcing him? Only we have the right to divorce a wife! If you don’t give us a satisfactory answer today, our Feng Family will surely divorce her!"

Ruo Xuan glanced outside and curled her lips, "Is that so?"

Suddenly, a wild cat darted in and pounced on Feng Jingzhong.

The cat jumped onto Feng Jingzhong, ripping off his belt, and his trousers fell straight down!

As if that wasn’t enough, the cat immediately climbed up his clothing, aiming for Feng Jingzhong’s face.

Feng Jingzhong jumped in fright, grabbed the wild cat, pulled it off, and threw it out!

Then his robe just came undone!

Ruo Xuan caught the cat with her Spiritual Power and sent it flying back toward Feng Jingzhong, its claws outstretched to scratch his face!

Feng Jingzhong instinctively dodged, and because his trousers had fallen, he tripped, lost his balance, fell backward, and sat down on the ground with his robe completely open, exposing his entire lower body.

Everyone present was shocked!

Liu Wenyao’s face changed, and she quickly turned away with her daughter, bursting into tears.

Ruo Zhou’s face showed a hint of astonishment. How did the Zhang Family find such a husband for his eldest cousin?

Zhang Chengye pointed at him, his face a mix of disbelief and shock, struggling to speak, "You, you..."

Ruo Xuan’s eyes had already been covered by an invisible hand, and she had yet to see what a eunuch looked like; she was curious.

Ruo Xuan tried to pull away the invisible palm, but couldn’t budge it. When she moved her head, the palm followed, blocking her vision completely!

Ruo Xuan: "..."

"Ah!" Feng’s Old Lady came to her senses with a shriek and rushed toward her son to pull his clothes up.

Feng Jingzhong also hurried to pull up his trousers.

Liu Wenyao, holding her daughter, cried out loud, "My poor Ruirui, why didn’t you speak up? Why didn’t you tell us sooner?"

Zhang Rui: "I only found out recently."

Old Lady Zhang, with her face ashen with rage, pounced on Feng Jingzhong and swung at him with her fist. "Wretches! You’re not human, ruining my precious granddaughter!! You’ve ruined my lovely granddaughter! How could you?"

Her granddaughter was as beautiful as a flower, and she could have married into a good family and enjoyed a lifetime of wealth and honor, just like her other two granddaughters!

If it weren’t for her son saying that their Zhang Family was in the business and valued integrity, always keeping their promises, she would never have agreed to this marriage.

There were so many suitors, and each of them was better than Feng Jingzhong!

If she had known earlier, she would have vehemently objected to the marriage!

Old Lady Zhang also regretted arranging this marriage for her eldest granddaughter.

At the time, it was because she saw that the Feng Family was doing well in the lumber business, making more money than the Zhang Family, and they had already purchased a large mansion. frёewebηovel.cѳm

Then Feng’s Old Lady took a liking to Ruirui’s birth chart, declaring that her destiny was to be a lady of great wealth and high status, so the two families agreed on the marriage.

Old Lady Zhang truly regretted it!

Feng’s Old Lady quickly shielded her son, "What are you doing, ganging up on us like this? Is there no law left?"

Zhang Chengye finally regained his voice, trembling with anger, "Divorce! No, divorce your husband! We want to divorce your husband! I am going to throw this shameless mother and son out!"

Ruo Xuan regained her vision, not having seen anything, and said impatiently, "Great Uncle, file a complaint, sue them for marriage fraud."

Liu Wenyao wiped her tears and said, "Yes, report it to the authorities!"

She was determined to seek justice for her eldest daughter.

Old Lady Feng said angrily, "What do you mean ’deceitful marriage’? We did not deceive anyone in marriage. Jingzhong and Zhang Rui were betrothed long ago. It’s only natural for them to get married when they come of age. How can you call this a deceitful marriage?"

Ruo Xuan replied, "Take those words to the prefect of Shuntian Prefecture, he will see justice done."

Liu Wenyao, furious, let go of Zhang Rui and spat in her face, "Pah! If you had been honest before the marriage, would this union even have taken place? Your actions are nothing but marriage deceit!"

Zhang Chengye said, "There’s no point talking with them anymore. Xuanbao is right to suggest reporting it to the authorities. The government will see justice done! Our words don’t count for much, and neither do theirs. When the trial is held in public, let the prefect of Shuntian Prefecture decide, let all the citizens of the Capital City be the judge, to see whether it’s indeed righteous, to see if it’s constituted as marriage deceit! I believe justice lies in the heart of the people!"

Feng Jingzhong’s face turned white. Report it to the authorities, a public trial?

Did this mean that the whole world would know he had lost his fertility?

No! He couldn’t bear that!

How could he face anyone after that?

Feng Jingzhong turned to Zhang Rui, "Ruirui, say something. You don’t want to be divorced, right? Do you realize if you are divorced, returning to your family, you’ll be pointed at and talked about for the rest of your life, and it will also affect your two brothers’ marriage prospects? Having a divorced older sister will cast a shadow over them too! As long as you’re alive, staying in the Zhang Family, your future nieces and nephews’ marriage prospects will be affected as well!"

Zhang Rui instinctively looked towards her grandmother and parents.

Being the eldest sister, she had always been used to taking the feelings of her family into account, taking care of her younger brothers and sisters, and dreading bringing trouble to her family.

This sense of responsibility was subconscious, etched deep in her bones.

Liu Wenyao reassured her, "Ruirui, don’t be afraid! There won’t be any repercussions, and even if there are, our family isn’t afraid! We’d rather be affected than let you stay in this inferno. Many women who have been divorced still lead brilliant lives, which you have seen for yourself."

Zhang Rui’s grandmother was even more direct, "Pah! What repercussions? You tricked someone into marriage being barren, the shame is on your family, it’s your family who should suffer the consequences! My granddaughter Ruirui is pure and innocent, she could get married into a good family tomorrow. Worst case, I’ll find her a man who’d come to live in our house, which would still be better than a eunuch like you!"

Zhang Rui’s grandmother was the owner of a grocery store, encountering so many clients daily, what type of people hadn’t she seen, what stories hadn’t she heard?

There is nothing absolute in this world!

Her granddaughter was beautiful and had a good temperament. Even if she remarried and possibly married below her status, it was better than staying with the Feng Family for a lifetime, living like a widow.

Zhang Chengye encouraged, "Ruirui, there’s no need for you to compromise. Otherwise, your parents will never be at peace."

Zhang Rui shed tears, "I shall abide by whatever my parents decide."

Zhang Rui’s grandmother immediately declared, "Good! Report it to the authorities!"

The family headed outside.

Old Lady Feng and Feng Jingzhong were truly scared this time!

Neither of them wanted the matter to become common knowledge.

Feng Jingzhong begged, "Let’s negotiate a separation, let’s negotiate a separation, alright? There’s no need to report it to the authorities!"

Old Lady Feng added, "Yes, negotiate a separation! On the condition that you don’t make my son’s situation public!"

"No, we must report it! We must report it to the authorities," Zhang Rui’s grandmother was adamant, only by going to the authorities could they clear Ruirui’s name.

In the future, who knows, Ruirui might still marry into a reputable family.

Old Lady Feng berated in anger, "We’ve agreed to a separation, why are you so malicious? You’re not leaving us any way out!"

"Do I care if you have a way out? When you deceived my granddaughter into marriage, did you ever consider if she had a way out? I don’t care if you drop dead!"

Zhang Rui’s grandmother certainly wouldn’t consider whether Feng Jingzhong could hold his head high after people found out he had lost his virility,

If the world found out, it might prevent the next woman from falling into this trap!

After all, the Feng Family was still well-off.
