Chapter 350 Still Young (Birthday)
The whole thing was done by Bai Jiaxing and Chu Shi. When Bai Jiaxing smiled like this, Chu Shi immediately knew what he was thinking, and he was secretly enjoying himself while sitting next to him.
Chu Yuan looked at the weird smiles of these two people and knew that these two boys must have something "inappropriate for children" that they didn't tell them. He thought to himself: It would be terrible if an honest man did something bad!
"What happened next? What happened next?" Xiaobao asked, this is really an exciting story!
"Nothing happened after that. Wu Shirong had his leg broken by someone hired by his wife to put a sack on her. Then Wu Shirong had no evidence and couldn't divorce her. The couple stayed at home every day to quarrel."
Baijiaxing brings an end to this story.
"That's right!" Xiaobao felt very relieved.
Wu Shirong secretly sold the dowry shop and broke one leg. It was really cheap for Wu Shirong. According to the style of Jiangnan Meng family who dared to smuggle iron ingots, he should have broken three legs.
Originally, Meng Yingying didn't expect her husband to do anything. She could live a comfortable life just by working in the dowry shop and raising her son patiently.
But Wu Shirong actually dared to steal even the most profitable shop to pay off his debts, or gambling debts! His uncle could bear it, but his aunt couldn't!
In fact, Wu Shirong was really wronged. He originally wanted to use the house deed and land deed of the shop as collateral to relieve a temporary emergency. He only had a thousand taels of silver and he could just grab a handful of inventory from the jewelry shop.
It's just that he didn't dare to go to the shop to get something, for fear that his wife would find out and make trouble with him.
I held the deed paper for a while and won it back after playing a few games. But who would have thought that this was Zheng Xiaorou's fault.
He handed the deed paper to the gambling house, and Zheng Xiaorou took it away. Then he went drunk in the shop and did such nonsense.
A person who can develop a gambling method from the mahjong and cards that he has just started with, isn't it difficult to do this game?
However, Zheng Xiaorou did not expect that what happened after getting the deed was actually arranged by her husband.
When her stepsister ruined her reputation, Bai Jiaxing wanted to help her get revenge.
But what Baijiaxing didn't expect was that Wu Shirong beat up Miss Zheng and almost had her punished in public. This reputation was completely ruined, even more completely than Baijiaxing's plan.
After a series of unexpected events, we finally got this "comfortable" ending, which is really in line with the old saying: "If you do evil by God, you can still forgive it; if you do evil by yourself, you can't live."
Zheng Xiaorou was sitting outside the private room embroidering her purse. Listening to the constant sighs and laughter coming from inside, she couldn't help but smile and rolled her eyes: her husband secretly planned to avenge her.
If nothing happens tomorrow, should I go back to my parents' house to help my father solve this big accident that has "ruined the family tradition"?
Didn't the stepmother say at the beginning that her daughter would not be able to survive if her flesh was exposed, or else she would suggest to her father that she marry her step-sister to Wu Shirong?
Regardless of whether Wu Shirong divorced his wife or separated, his stepsister can still be regarded as a legitimate wife.
Zheng Xiaorou is still young.
As the wife of the Minister of Industry, she certainly has a far-sighted view of things than Zheng Xiaorou.
At this moment, the home of Zheng Chunqiu, Minister of the Ministry of Industry, was under heavy clouds. His daughter was crying endlessly, which made Zheng Chunqiu feel like he was breathing heavily in his chest, unable to get up or down, and anxiously wanting to kill someone!
How many days has it been? Next morning, some colleagues came over to care for him, seemingly kindly: "Mr. Zheng, pay more attention to rest. Look at you, your eyes are all black and blue. Take care of yourself!"
Why doesn’t anyone usually care about this?!
It’s just a matter of watching the excitement, right?
But what can be done? Whether it is a commoner or a high-ranking official, even in the palace, things between men and women are talked about.
The more taboo something is, the more exciting it is.
I was laughed at by my colleagues overtly and covertly when I went to court, and when I got home I had to listen to their mother-in-law crying.
Did you eat and sleep enough during the day and save all your energy just to wait for me to come back to disgust me?!
The former daughter-in-law wanted to hang herself, and yesterday the daughter-in-law made a show of trying to hit the rockery. With the thoughts of that chaste and fierce woman, why didn’t she crash her head into someone else’s shop and die on the day of the accident?!
These words can only be thought, not spoken. After all, we still have to worry about the Yue family's opinions.
md! If I had known that the daughter of a great Confucianist would be nothing more than this, she might as well have lived a good life with Xiaorou's mother. Even if she had no great achievements, she would never have lost her face like she is now!
There is an old saying that it is better for a wife to be her original wife, and it really makes sense!
"Sir," Mrs. Zheng's eyes were red and she wiped her nose with a handkerchief: "It's been so many days, you see..."
Zheng Chunqiu waved his hand impatiently to interrupt her: "Today, Li Yushi and several imperial censors have impeached Wu Shirong in the court.
He was said to have indulged in drunkenness and acted recklessly, and as an official participated in gambling, he should be severely punished according to the law.
The Secret Investigation Division also presented evidence of Wu Shirong’s illegal activities over the years.
The emperor agreed one by one, and ordered Wu Shirong to be dismissed from office, given twenty sticks, and no money or property. He also ordered that the mansion given to Wu Jichang be taken back, saying that the son did not teach, it was the father's fault, and the son had ruined all my achievements.
Already."
The emperor probably wanted to take back the house for a long time, Mrs. Zheng thought, this was just to let the emperor wait for the opportunity.
"Master, Wu Shirong deserves to die, but these are not things I have to consider. I don't understand those big things, but what should I do if I only think about my daughter's future?" Mrs. Zheng said, wiping away tears.
"Hmph!" Zheng Chunqiu let out a heavy snort from his nose.
Why talk about the future? Isn’t it embarrassing enough to make the commotion in Kyoto known to everyone?!
"I think it would be better to send Xian'er back to her hometown first, maybe there..." Before Zheng Chunqiu could finish his words, Mrs. Zheng interrupted hastily: "Master!"
Zheng Chunqiu looked at her dissatisfied, what kind of trouble do you want to make? Is it over?
Mrs. Zheng realized that her tone just now was a little harsh, so she quickly softened her voice and said: "Xian'er can't go back to her hometown. That's not true. She said that our daughter is seducing...Xian'er is the victim, your biological daughter!"
You see, when Rou'er was like that, didn't we find such a good family for her? Xian'er couldn't...?"
"Are you mentally ill? Are you going to marry her to Wu Shirong?!" Zheng Chunqiu became angry and took action.
If Wu Jichang had not died, it would be a good idea to marry his daughter to Wu Shirong. It would also make Wu Jichang owe him a favor, and he would be able to handle anything in the future.
Now that Wu Shirong is like a bereaved dog, what's wrong with marrying off his daughter? It would be better to send her back to her hometown and find a small landowner or merchant to marry.
What a loss!
The eldest daughter was not able to marry high, but marrying into Chu Qing's sect was not a bad idea. At least she had a little connection with the Secret Investigation Department.
The younger daughter has devoted herself to training her to be good at piano, chess, calligraphy and painting for so many years, hoping that she can help him find a high-quality in-law to make up for his shortcomings in the family life of a poor student.
Others have "inherited knowledge". He is an official from a farming and educated family, but he does not have the capital to compete with others.
If it hadn't been for the support of the Yue family all these years, he would never have thought of reaching the position of a third-grade official.
Even so, I still don't have the confidence to stand in the court.
