On the way, Xiao Xiao asked her what was going on. Sister-in-law Wen's face looked sad and angry, and her words were a bit chaotic. She always made a few accusations after a few sentences, but Xiao Xiao also understood.
Her husband's name is Wen Chongxian, and he has been studying at the academy since the second half of last year. His family is poor, and he sells iron to help him raise travel expenses due to the famine. Fortunately, the academy does not charge tuition and provides subsidies, and also gives him money to go home to visit relatives every year.
Their home is in a neighboring county in Jiazhou, not very far away, but Wen Zhongxian didn't go home to save money, so he sent money home to her.
But she was pregnant and couldn't do heavy work, and this year's harvest was not good, and he hadn't sent any money home for more than half a year. The two of them couldn't survive, so they packed up some money, exchanged some money, and came to the academy to find him.
I found him a few days ago. He was a little unhappy and blamed her for making her own decision without consulting her. But he was also happy to see his daughter, so he asked for leave and took them down the mountain. He rented a small house nearby for her and her daughter to live in, and also gave them a stay.
He gave them some money and let them eat some delicious food to replenish their health.
He said that the academy was under tight control and couldn't accompany them, so they had to wait for the holidays. She thought that she was already here anyway and knew that he was fine, so she didn't have to follow him. The two of them lived well down the mountain and even contacted people.
I did the work of washing, washing, sewing and mending to earn some money to support my family.
She had been having a good time these days. Yesterday, she carried Niu'er to deliver clothes to her employer, and saw Wen Zhongxian shopping with someone who looked like a rich girl.
Sister-in-law Wen was confused for a moment and followed them for a long time. Wen Zhongxian was so focused on trying to please the young lady that he didn't notice her at all.
It was not until they got on the carriage and left that she returned to the rented house in despair.
I thought I would come to him today to ask him clearly, but I didn't know that the rich lady came to her humble home early in the morning.
He said straight to the point that Sister-in-law Wen was not worthy of him, and in order not to delay his future, he asked Sister-in-law Wen to leave him.
Sister-in-law Wen just thought it was a bolt from the blue, and the lady even threw down a hundred taels of silver to make her wiser. Otherwise, she would be harmed both by Wen Zhongxian and herself. She took the money and went home to marry into another family. She was appointed to follow Wen Zhong in the future.
It looks like a yellow-faced woman is strong.
Wen's sister-in-law had no one to see her and she didn't see Wen Zhongxian come home. In a fit of anger, she came to the academy to cause trouble and asked the dean to seek justice.
Who knew that Wen Zhongxian didn't show up, nor did the dean, but no one paid attention to her.
They were all a group of people watching the excitement and pointing fingers, which made her regretful.
At first she was filled with anger and grief, so she wanted to ask questions. But when someone pointed her out, she felt that this was embarrassing for Wen Zhong and herself.
So she huddled in the crowd and didn't dare to look up.
Fortunately, Xiao Xiao appeared in time and rescued her.
Feng Ruoji said angrily: "We haven't even developed yet, but we are already abandoning our first wives. It's really... bastard."
Feng Ruo wanted to scold Zhongxian, but her good manners prevented her from scolding others, but she felt it was too irritating.
Xiao Xiao smiled and said: "What a Chen Shimei, the rich girl from Bashang abandoned her wretched wife."
Feng Ruo asked out of curiosity: "Isn't his name Wen Chongxian? Why is he called Chen Shimei?"
Xiao Xiao said casually: "There is a twist in the play, which is called Chen Shimei abandoning the chaff and Bao Qing guillotining the heartless man."
Feng Ruoji wanted to ask who Bao Qingtian was again, and Xiao Xiao said, "Is Dean Shen not here? Is Dean Song here? Someone has to speak to you after all."
