Chapter 1295: Chapter 1288: Miscarriage (18) Chapter 1295: Chapter 1288: Miscarriage (18) Their marriage was a flash wedding, and the Lu and Bai Families hardly did anything; it was the Qin Family that arranged everything for the wedding. Originally, Lu’s mother had prepared a dowry for her daughter, but later, as her illness worsened, although the dowry was brought in, it was taken away a couple of days later to pay for her medical expenses.

During the months she stayed at the Qin residence, she was provided with food and shelter and hardly spent any money; thus, accumulating savings was out of the question. If she were to be paid a wage, Qin Zhiyou wouldn’t give her more than a hundred thousand at most.

Yang Mogui said this to deliberately belittle them.

Qin Zhiyou furrowed his brow; he had been leaning against the door initially but couldn’t help straightening up now. The divorce between him and Lu Weixi was a matter between the two of them, and he didn’t like his family interfering, particularly his mother.

But five years ago, he had not yet, like later, taken great power over Hanhai, and even his mother’s monthly expenditure relied on him. He spoke up, curtly, “Mom, the divorce is our business, don’t interfere.”

The two elders obviously did not regard the younger generation in their eyes, and even Lu’s mother replied, “Fine, then let’s wait for the divorce agreement.”

While they were talking, the Qin Family side was also stirred up. It was one thing for others, but Qin Zhizha was now home for the Christmas break, and Qin Zhimei was idly enjoying her time off; both siblings were lounging at home and naturally came over to enjoy the spectacle when such a commotion arose.

They didn’t just come to watch; they called their parents over as well. Chang Zaigang and Qin Weijian, being men, were embarrassed to attend to these gossipy affairs. However, Kong Jie and Qin Weijia came over. These two families held no good impressions of Qin Zhiyou, nor of Lu Weixi. Seeing the turmoil between the two of them, they were utterly delighted.

Qin Zhimei said with a smile, “Gosh, when you married my brother, it all looked so grand, so resolute–I thought it was some kind of magnificent love story. And here you are, not even half a year in and already divorcing.”

Qin Zhizha also laughed, “It’s a good thing you didn’t marry my second brother, otherwise you would have been the bane of his existence!”

Even Kong Jie, who was usually the epitome of kindness, felt disgruntled when Lu Weixi broke up with Qin Zhisu and married Qin Zhiyou. Although Kongs’ status prevented her from making cutting remarks, she couldn’t help but coldly snort, “You got what you deserved,” at that moment.

The volume of her voice was not loud, but Lu Weixi and her mother heard it loud and clear–it was practically a public execution.

Outside, it was still raining, with the north wind howling, the weather seeming even chillier. Lu Weixi followed her mother silently, packing up to leave the house.

Qin Zhizha couldn’t resist kicking them while they were down, “Since you’re leaving, don’t even think about using our Qin Family’s car.”

Lu Weixi and her mother paused, and it was true–they had come by car, but this area was filled with villas, making it common knowledge that calling for a car was not easy. Five years ago, Lu Weixi didn’t have a car. Back then, the platforms for calling for cars weren’t as developed as they are now, and indeed, with the cold weather and heavy rain, it was quite a hassle.

Qin Zhiyou glared at him and snapped, “Shut up, since when did you start calling the shots in this family?”

Lu Weixi responded indifferently, “You needn’t worry about us.”

She had just called Xue Feifei. If it weren’t for this moment, she wouldn’t have wanted to trouble others.

But as she was leaving, Qin Zhiyou suddenly reached out and grabbed her arm. Lu Weixi’s step faltered, and he, looking down at his toes, said after a long pause, “I don’t have any.”
