My Aloof Lord Ex-Husband Begs for Remarriage
Chapter 483 The Decision of the Liao Family

Chapter 483: Chapter 483 The Decision of the Liao Family

The elder Mrs. Liao had just listened to Lin Xuanxuan’s explanation when her face was already tinged with anger.

How could she, who loved her only daughter so dearly, stand idly by and watch her daughter be mistreated?

"Quick, go and have the old master and those two good-for-nothings come back!"

Seeing the elder Mrs. Liao’s reaction, Lin Xuanxuan let out a sigh of relief.

As long as her maternal family stood by her and her mother, they would not be left completely without support.

The wife of the Prime Minister was the eldest sister in the family, and the two younger brothers were practically brought up by her since their childhood.

Naturally, their affection for her was deeply ingrained.

"This is too much! That surnamed Lin is simply too bullying!"

"No, I must go and give him a good scolding!"

Upon learning how his sister had been treated, Liao Yuanmao instantly became furious.

Being the youngest in the family, he had always been close to his elder sister. Now, hearing of such matters, he naturally could not tolerate it.

"Yuanmao, don’t be too impulsive!"

Liao Yuanwen’s expression was also not very pleasant, but he still held back his recklessly behaving younger brother.

"If you blow this up now, how is our sister supposed to face others?"

He turned his head to Lin Xuanxuan, "Have you discussed this matter with your mother?"

"Mother has always been frail, I didn’t dare tell her first," Lin Xuanxuan shook her head, "I was afraid father would be biased towards them, so I had to come back and tell grandfather and grandmother first."

The expression of elder Mr. Liao relaxed slightly: "Not telling your mother might be for the best. She was coddled by us as she grew up, and she has never experienced such things. Knowing about it would only disadvantage her."

"But now, Xuanxuan is already so grown up, if this matter escalates, I fear it might affect Xuanxuan’s future marriage prospects."

The elder Mrs. Liao naturally doted on her own daughter, but she was equally fond of her granddaughter.

She certainly did not wish for her granddaughter to be caught in such difficulties.

After a moment of hesitation, Lin Xuanxuan finally spoke up: "Grandmother, I think, let mother divorce father."

"What?"

As soon as she spoke these words, all four members of the Liao family were momentarily stunned.

The elder Mrs. Liao was the first to object: "How can there be a divorce? If she divorces, won’t your mother be laughed at?

Her mindset was that of a typical traditional housewife; though she felt sorry for her daughter, she did not really wish for her to go through with the divorce.

Those women who had divorced from their husband’s family, was there any amongst them who had things go well for them?

"But in these past years in the Prime Minister Residence, mother has not been happy. Father is always with the concubine, neglecting both mother and me. He even scolds us for no reason."

"Even if mother hides away in her courtyard daily, she still gets dragged into disputes. I can see that mother is truly unhappy."

The shift in Lin Xuanxuan’s mindset was entirely thanks to Chu Nanli.

She had long wanted to have nothing to do with the Prime Minister Residence and naturally also supported the wife of the Prime Minister in getting divorced.

Leaving the Prime Minister Residence, they, mother and daughter, would not be unable to survive.

Lin Xuanxuan, of course, had not failed to consider anything.

Seeing her grandparents remain silent, she still laid out her plans.

"After mother gets divorced, she can take her dowry and return home. I will continue to stay in the Prime Minister Residence and can get married in a couple of years..."

She would not always be a burden to her grandparents. Now, she also had some savings, and even if she separated from the Prime Minister Residence, she would still be able to support herself.

"Nonsense! You are still a child, why consider these things?"

Elder Mr. Liao’s face was already unpleasant, and upon hearing Lin Xuanxuan’s words, his imposing aura became even more chillingly severe.

"Let’s divorce, our Liao Family can surely afford to support both of you!"

"You stay here as well, no need to go back. We, as your elders, will help you get justice!"

The Liao Family’s protection for Lin Xuanxuan was simple and pure.

However, before that, they would still need to consult the opinion of the Prime Minister’s wife.

Lin Xuanxuan took the initiative to handle this matter herself.

She was confident she could persuade her mother.

The Prime Minister’s wife, originally named Liao Yu, had a youthful face despite the ordeals she faced in the Prime Minister Residence over the years, but her eyes carried an indelible hue of worry.

"You, you want me to divorce your father?"

Upon hearing what Lin Xuanxuan said, the Prime Minister’s wife naturally refused at first.

"Now that you’re almost of age to marry, how would others view you if I were to divorce?"

"Besides, if I stay in the Prime Minister Residence, you would still be the legitimate daughter, making arranging marriages easier..."

"Mother!"

Lin Xuanxuan understood this, which was why she was even less willing to let her mother compromise for her sake.

"If I stay in the Prime Minister Residence, are you sure they won’t meddle with my marriage?"

Not to mention, the Prime Minister was her father in name.

If he were persuaded by Aunt Li and intervened forcefully in her marriage, she would have nowhere to cry when that time came.

Considering this possibility Lin Xuanxuan mentioned, the Prime Minister’s wife’s complexion also changed.

As Lin Xuanxuan spoke of past incidents where she was plotted against and her daughter nearly lost her innocence,

even if she were made of mud, she would be provoked into anger now.

Moreover, the support the Liao Family showed for the divorce gave her great confidence.

After deciding on the divorce, the Liao Family immediately kept Lin Xuanxuan with them and only sent a servant back to inform the Prime Minister.

The Prime Minister was still considering how to persuade the Liao Family to accept raising Aunt Li to a principal wife when the divorce papers already reached his hands.

The Liao Family didn’t hold back on what Aunt Li had done, exposing everything.

Not only did they not conceal it, but they also directly told the Prime Minister,

"Absolute nonsense!"

The Prime Minister naturally didn’t believe what the Liao Family said.

Over the years, Aunt Li took good care of Lin Fuying and was extremely respectful to the Prime Minister’s wife in his eyes.

If she ever faced difficulties from the Prime Minister’s wife, she never complained in front of him, even advising him not to be too hard on his wife.

How could someone so forbearing and magnanimous do harm?

He didn’t believe it, but still went straight to Aunt Li to verify it.

His arrival coincided exactly with Lin Fuying’s return to the Prime Minister Residence to discuss strategies with Aunt Li.

Seeing the Prime Minister arrive, Aunt Li immediately filled her face with smiles.

"The master has come, I was just telling Yingying here that this child clings to no one else but you, sir, truly a father and son bond!"

Lin Fuying’s face also showed immense admiration, her eyes filled with respect for her father.

If it had been another time, the Prime Minister would certainly have been very pleased.

Yet, thinking of the words just sent by the Liao Family, the expression on the Prime Minister’s face instantly turned uglier.
