Chapter 79: Chapter 79: Holding Up a Sky for You!_1

"What? You want to divorce me?"

Mrs. Qin-Li, who had remained silent, was now stirred by these words from Old Man Qin!

Immediately, she rushed at Old Man Qin, scratching his face with her fingernails: "You shameless scum! Now you have grown some guts to divorce me after all these years! I worked a lifetime for you bearing children and managing the household! Now that I’m old, you want to disembark, I don’t want to live anymore..."

Crying, making a fuss, and threatening suicide, Mrs. Qin-Li employed all her survival instincts.

Noting Mrs. Qin-Li gaining momentum with her outburst, Old Man Qin flexed his muscles and flung her far away.

"Always arguing and causing a ruckus, I’ve had enough!"

Old Man Qin was increasingly enraged to the point where he turned around and shouted, "Third son, bring me paper and brush, I’ll divorce this woman today! Elder son, bring the Clan Leader here quickly. I want to see how she’ll resist this!"

Inviting the Clan Leader?

This definitely frightened Mrs. Qin-Li.

Her tone immediately softened: "I...I was...just worried about the silver! Woo woo..."

Seeing things escalate out of control, Qin Yu quickly stepped in.

"Father, please calm down. It’s all mother’s fault today..." He coughed twice to cover his slip upon seeing Old Man Qin glowering at him: "Mother is just trying to protect our family, right? Besides, look at her now... If we invite the Clan Leader while she is in this state, what will people think?"

Following Qin Yu’s suggestion, everyone looked at Mrs. Qin-Li. Her hair was disheveled, she was covered in mud, her face bruised green and purple, and her eyes were swollen shut, especially around the eyeballs. It was clear that Overlord Tiger had delivered his slaps without holding back.

Seeing her pitiful state, Old Man Qin couldn’t suppress a sour feeling in his heart. After all, they had been married for decades.

Mrs. Qin-Li opportunistically lifted her head and uttered sorrowfully.

"Old man! If you want to divorce me, I don’t want to live..."

The more she thought about it, the more heartbroken she became, and she began sobbing.

Her low whimpering made Old Man Qin sympathize more with her than when she was creating a scene!

He sighed and turned his head away.

Seeing their dynamics, everyone hurriedly stepped in to mediate.

"Do you realize your mistake now? Always causing a fuss, do you think Young Master Lui is within your grasp? Use your brain! Ah..."

He couldn’t help but sigh, shaking his head, and shot Mrs. Qin-Li a sharp look: "Aren’t you going back to the house? Look at the state you’re in!"

The saying ’One Should Marry a Virtuous Wife’ is, after all, very true...!

Seeing that the tide had turned, Qin Yueshi, his daughter-in-law, promptly stepped forward: "Mother, the ground is cold, let me help you back to the room to rest."

She hurriedly helped her up and led her back into the house.

After Mrs. Qin-Li left, Old Man Qin silently watched Su Pan’er with a myriad of emotions in his eyes.

His intense gaze made Su Pan’er uneasy.

"For my third son’s sake...you played mediator today and helped preserve the dignity of the Qin family. As Old Man Qin, I will bow on the family’s behalf..."

He finished speaking, rolled up his sleeves, adjusted his robe, and was about to bow to Su Pan’er.

Bowing to Pan’er?

Qin Yi was shocked! This would be creating difficulties for Pan’er, wouldn’t it?

He quickly stretched out his hand to stop him while his father had yet to kneel, and helped him up.

"Father! What are you doing?"

He hastily replied, "If word about this gets out, those who know about it would commend your rare intention. But for those who don’t, wouldn’t they say Pan’er is unfilial, and wicked for having her father-in-law bow to her? People will condemn her!"

Old Man Qin was somewhat puzzled, "But I... It was with good intention..."

"Let’s not bother with these intentions."

Qin Yi was upset, and he didn’t mince words: "Besides, Pan’er is your daughter-in-law. Even if we separate, we’re all family. Isn’t that right?"

"But..."

Old Man Qin was still hesitant. After all, she had saved the whole family!

Su Pan’er stretched out her hand and interrupted him, smiling warmly.

"Father-in-law, if you still consider Pan’er as family, I appreciate your sentiment. Let’s just leave the formalities, shall we?"

"Family! Good, you really know your place."

Old Man Qin smiled approvingly, "Good, good! I, Old Man Qin, am blessed to have such a smart and upright daughter-in-law. It’s truly thanks to my ancestors’ blessings! I was blind back then! Qin Yi, you must treat Pan’er well in the future. Otherwise, this old man won’t let you off!"

"Understood, father!" Qin Yi responded loudly.

His father rarely praised anyone. Therefore, today’s consecutive compliments for Pan’er were overwhelmingly joyful for him. Hearing others praise Pan’er made him happier than if he were being praised!

On their way home, his mouth was stretched into a wide smile that he couldn’t close.

"Did you find gold? Why are you so happy?"

Su Pan’er held up the torch higher to illuminate his face.

The Morning Star in the sky flickered. It wouldn’t be long before dawn broke!

"This is even more exciting than finding gold! Pan’er, you don’t know, over the years, father rarely praises people. Even when I became a successful candidate in the preliminary imperial examinations, he just nodded with a smile. Really! I’m telling the truth, don’t you dare not believe me..."

"Pfft! Just look at you talking! When did I ever not trust you? Still, I am concerned about how this matter is not over yet."

Su Pan’er’s bright eyes twinkled with amusement as she chuckled, burped with a whiff of alcohol, swayed her head, and giggled: "It’s been a long time since I drank, and I can’t handle it as well anymore! This alcohol sure does pack a punch..."

"Come here, I’ll carry you."

Qin Yi crouched down in front of Su Pan’er, with a puzzled expression: "Not over? Hasn’t the money issue already been resolved?"

"Forget it! With my weight, I’d surely knock you down."

Su Pan’er, playfully pulled him up and directly climbed onto his shoulders: "Your mother has spent all her savings today, and Old Uncle Hu has lost forty-five taels of silver out of the blue. Don’t you think they will have some thoughts? You’re oversimplifying things."

"Well, that’s true..."

Qin Yi felt a surge of emotions: "Pan’er, we owe you a lot for this! The most correct thing I’ve done in my life is marrying you."

"Pfft!"

Su Pan’er couldn’t help but spray out!

And then she immediately composed herself and looked at him seriously: "What’s with you today? So many feelings suddenly?"

"Everything I said is from the heart, Pan’er."

Qin Yi looked at her sincerely, eyes so dark they resembled a deep pool.

"Pan’er, ever since you married me, I, Qin Yi, have caused you nothing but trouble instead of giving you anything. I... I don’t want to go on like this. I must become the kind of man who can protect you from the wind and rain! I will create a sky for you!"
