I became the Prime Minister’s Adored Wife after Transmigrating - Chapter 4
Chapter 4: Repentance
“Mother, I… I really know my mistake!” Ji Zhao squeezed out two drops of tears. “I know I made a very ridiculous mistake, but Mother, can you give me a chance? I’ll really change…”
“If you knew this would happen, why did you do it in the first place?” Zhao Lanhua shook her head. “Ah Tao, Sanlang gave you a peaceful divorce letter. This is already the most honorable thing we can give you. Besides, a person’s face is earned by themselves. On the second day of your marriage, you took your in-laws’ money and wanted to elope with another man. According to our Shanghe Village’s rules, you will be drowned in a pig cage. Do you know that?”
Drowned in a pig cage?
Ji Zhao could not help but shiver!
“Mother, I… I will really turn over a new leaf! Please give me a chance?” Ji Zhao begged anxiously.
Zhao Lanhua shook her head.
“Mother, I’ll prove it to you. I’ll really change!” Ji Zhao’s eyes gradually turned red. “Mother, please, give me a chance!”
“Ah Tao, you should just sign it.”
Ji Zhao’s heart was filled with bitterness. She thought for a moment and only pressed her thumbprint on the IOU.
“Mother, I know what I’ve done has hurt everyone’s hearts, but I’ll really repent.” Ji Zhao pointed at her head and smiled bitterly. “In the past, this was filled with straws. That’s why I made a mistake. Now that I’ve learned my lesson from the heavens, I’ll really change for the better. I know that it’s better to do more than talk, so I want to discuss something with you.”
Zhao Lanhua looked at her sincere expression with mixed feelings and asked softly, “What do you want to say?”
“Since I’ve already entered the Shen family, I’m a member of the Shen family. I know that my previous actions were despicable, but Sanlang and I are already husband and wife who have worshipped the heavens and the earth. Therefore, I want to stay. In the future, I’ll do all the tiring and dirty work in the family. The Shen family doesn’t need to provide for me. I’ll think of a way to solve it myself. I only hope that the Shen family can temporarily provide me with a place to stay. When I repay the Shen family’s money in the future, I’ll leave. Is that okay?”
Ji Zhao said sincerely.
Zhao Lanhua hesitated for a while before saying softly, “Our family needs to discuss this matter.”
“Yes, I understand!”
Ji Zhao smiled gratefully and walked out of the main room.
She had to find a way to stay in the Shen family to change the original plot of the book!
When she walked to the backyard, Eldest Sister-in-law Shen was feeding the pigs.
Ji Zhao mustered her courage and walked forward with a smile. “Sister-in-law, is there anything I can help with?”
“You?” Sister-in-law Shen looked at her suspiciously.
“Yes.” Ji Zhao nodded hurriedly. “If there’s anything you need, just tell me. I’ll definitely do it well!”
“Alright, there’s not much pigweed left. Go to the back mountain and get two bundles of pigweed first!” Sister-in-law Shen said expressionlessly.
“Alright!”
Ji Zhao glanced around the pigpen and found the basket and sickle leaning against the outer wall.
She hurriedly carried the basket on her back and prepared to set off with the sickle.
“Sister-in-law, which direction is the back mountain?”
Sister-in-law Shen casually pointed in a direction.
“Sister-in-law, wait for me. I’ll get the pigweed back soon!”
“Mm.”
When Ji Zhao really walked out of the courtyard, Second Sister-in-law Shen hurriedly walked to Eldest Sister-in-law Shen’s side. “Sister-in-law? You’re not angry with Ji Ah Tao anymore?”
“Her gathering pigweed has nothing to do with whether I’m angry or not.” Sister-in-law Shen shrugged nonchalantly. “It’s getting dark. The mountain path is steep and difficult to walk on. If she insists, what can we do?”
“Smart!” Second Sister-in-law Shen quickly gave her a thumbs up. “Sister-in-law, you’re still the best!”
“Don’t joke around. Father-in-law and the rest will be back soon. I’ll go to the kitchen to wash the rice and cook first.”
“I’ll help you!”
“Oh, come on. You’re so pregnant. I don’t dare to let you work. Go back to your room and rest!”
