741 Save Your Husband (End) Three in One Father Zhu Sighs
Father Zhu sighed: "You don't have to be afraid. We are relatives of the two children. Everything we do is for their own good and we will never harm others."
"Yes, yes." Zhu's mother hurriedly agreed: "When I quarreled with you before, it was all out of anger. The child is of the Zhu family's blood, how could I deny it? Today I came here with the master, just to see them.
"
Father Zhu was afraid that his wife would say unpleasant things when she opened her mouth. Seeing that she did not look condescending and wanted to take the child away, he felt deeply in his heart that his wife would risk everything for her grandson.
"Yes, you are already one month old, and I haven't seen the two children yet. As the grandfather of the children, this is indeed the wrong thing to do. It is really that the family has been busy recently and has no time. You are also in business, so you should be able to understand."
Zhu's mother answered: "This is already at the door. Just let us go in and take a look."
Chu Yunli smiled brightly and looked very talkative. She shook her head and said, "That's not necessary."
Seeing that the two of them were about to speak in a hurry, she took the lead and said: "No matter who the father of this child is, it has nothing to do with you. I swore to God back then that the child's surname was Zhou, and if his surname was Zhu, I would be
You'll have to die a good death."
Hearing this, Father Zhu glared at his wife fiercely.
"This child is from the Zhu family..." He looked around: "This is not the place to talk."
Chu Yunli waved her hand: "I don't want to have a serious talk with you. When it comes to the real deal, our two families have no relationship. If they did, they would also be my enemies. Let's leave it like that."
The door was closed, and the couple had not yet recovered.
They are the richest people in the city. Even though they have spent hundreds of thousands of taels of silver recently, they are still doing business. No matter where they go, they are always respected and given way. Rarely do people treat them so rudely.
Zhu's mother was anxious: "Master, what should we do now?"
Zhu's father wanted to see his grandson, but after hearing this, he said angrily: "When you offended people to death, did you ever think that you would be like today? When you live in the world, you can't be too strict in what you do."
"I know I was wrong." Mother Zhu looked at the closed door and ordered the maid: "Knock again!"
"No need!" Zhu's father turned around and said, "Let's all go back first and we'll talk about it in two days."
Seeing that his wife was unwilling to move, he reminded: "She is full of resistance to us now. If we push her too hard, it will only make her hate her more. Anyway, if the child is raised well, the future will be long, and it will always soften her heart."
Zhu's mother was very reluctant, but she didn't dare not listen.
The next day, Chu Yunli left her child at home and went to the shop. As soon as she entered the door, she saw a familiar person.
The shopkeeper came forward and said in a low voice: "Mrs. Zhu was sitting here waiting early in the morning. She chose a lot of things and paid the bill, but she just didn't leave. It's not easy to force a young lady."
Chu Yunli nodded and walked in, saying, "Mrs. Zhu has something to say, come in with me!"
There are not many rooms in the backyard of the shop. It was originally a workshop. Later, when the business grew, the workshop was moved to the suburbs, and it was used as a warehouse. As soon as you entered the yard, you could smell various fragrances, which were too fragrant and a bit cloying.
.
The newly built room in the corner is Chu Yunli's counting house.
After Mrs. Zhu entered the door and sat down, no one brought her tea for a long time. She didn't dare to argue. Seeing that the woman behind the desk had already started to do something, she could only say: "Anyu, what happened between our mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is indeed true.
I've gone too far. It's normal for you to hate me and not want to see me. To be honest, I don't want to see you either!"
Chu Yunli sneered and said without raising his head: "If you don't want to see me, get out! I open the door to do business. If someone comes to buy something, I will definitely sell it. But you can choose not to buy from me. These soaps are good, but Jiangnan is not
You have been using these for many years, so you should be used to them."
"Listen to what I have to say." Mother Zhu looked outside the door, stood up and closed the door, then stood by the desk and whispered: "To tell you the truth, something happened to Kang Yu and he can no longer give birth.
.Whether you feel sorry for him or laugh at him, I don't care. I came here today to make you recognize a fact. If the child does not associate with the Zhu family, a large part of the Zhu family's business will fall into the hands of his second brother in the future.
!”
Chu Yunli put down the teacup in her hand and raised her eyes to look at her.
Mother Zhu thought she was moved... It is normal to be moved. Facing a family fortune of millions of taels, it would be a fool not to be moved!
"An Yu, you and Kang Yu can't go back, but the children can go back to the Zhu family." When Zhu's mother said this, her tone could not hide her pride: "Don't worry, I will let the master teach them well. In the future, the head of the family will
The seat must belong to Fuwa."
Chu Yunli smiled at her: "It's not surprising."
Zhu's mother was stunned for a moment, thinking she had heard wrong. Seeing her lower her head again, she asked, "What did you say?"
"I said it's not rare." Chu Yunli looked at her seriously: "What are you so proud of? The Zhu family just has some money. You always look down on this and look down on that. To put it bluntly, you didn't earn the money yourself.
.You still want to use this to tease me and make me dream!"
She raised her voice and ordered: "Someone, please drive Mrs. Zhu out."
Zhu's mother was so angry that her chest heaved: "You don't want it, and the children don't want it either? Why do you make the decision for them?"
Chu Yunli raised her eyebrows: "Just because I am his mother."
Mother Zhu blurted out: "You are the child's mother, so you should fight for the child! This is theirs, why not?"
Compared with her excitement, Chu Yunli was not angry at all, and said calmly: "Mrs. Zhu, it was you who didn't want them in the first place. If I had been weaker, I would have died..."
"But you are not dead." Zhu's mother was a little irritable: "This is equivalent to giving money to you mother and son, why do you refuse?"
"There is no regret medicine in the world." Chu Yunli said with a calm expression, "Just think of us as dead."
If you are not dead, you are not dead. How can you take it seriously?
Until she was sent out of the shop, Zhu's mother still didn't understand why Zhou Anyu didn't want the money. The Zhu family's accumulated wealth for generations could not be spent by the two children even if they did nothing in their lives. If they had a chance to get it, why
Want to give up?
She was full of confidence when she came, thinking that as long as Zhou Anyu showed some reason, Zhou Anyu would stop making sarcastic remarks and might even try to please her. The result was still the same.
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. She took a sip at the roadside and said, "You will suffer a big loss sooner or later if you have a bad temper!"
After I finished cursing, I didn't feel relieved, only feeling full of powerlessness.
Even handing over the family property couldn't relieve Zhou Anyu's anger. Mother Zhu really couldn't think of any other way to get her child back.
*
Father Zhu came back from outside and hurried all the way. After entering the main courtyard, he asked directly: "Did you go to see Zhou Anyu today?"
"Yes." Mother Zhu said listlessly.
"What did you say?" Zhu's father emphasized: "Don't promise too much. The child is so young and his qualifications cannot be seen. Kang Yu's disease may be cured, but if he has other children..."
The doctor said that, how could she still have a child?
When these words fell into Zhu's mother's ears, it meant that the man had other ideas. After all, she only had one son, Zhu Kangyu, but besides Kang Yu, the master also had a son and a daughter.
"She doesn't want her child to recognize her parents. Even if I tell her to give away all the Zhu family, she still has the same attitude."
Zhu's father looked surprised: "How could this be? She is a businesswoman!"
A businessman must be good at planning, otherwise he will not make money. Zhou Anyu, a female classmate, has done such a good business. How can she refuse to do something without any capital or profit?
He looked unbelieving, and Mother Zhu smiled bitterly: "I thought so too, but she didn't want to, and she said it wasn't rare."
When she thought that she had lived a graceful life, but ended up with no heirs and no one to take care of her son until he died, she didn't know how miserable it would be. She felt a lump in her heart that she couldn't get up or get down. The more she thought about it, the angrier she became, and she stood up suddenly:
"Where's that bad gambler from the Xu family?"
Mr. Xu was sleeping soundly. It was not that he was so worried that he could still sleep after so many things happened, but that he had injuries on his body and did not have a doctor to treat him. The only way to avoid the pain was to fall asleep.
Mrs. Xu was also injured, her hair was messy, and she didn't bother to take care of it. She just huddled in the corner. She couldn't believe that she would end up in this situation, but... no matter how bad it is here, it is safer than outside.
My master owes two hundred thousand taels of silver, and when the debt collectors come to visit, they will probably sell her.
Thinking of this, she hugged herself tighter.
There was a low sob coming from the next door. It was very sad. Tears fell all over Mrs. Xu's face unconsciously. She didn't know how long it took. She steeled herself and knocked on the wall: "Caidie, don't cry anymore."
You've just had a miscarriage, so it's important to take care of yourself."
It was okay not to say anything, but when Xu Caidi heard this, she was sad and angry: "What's the use of taking care of yourself? You are really good at giving your husband Juezi Decoction, but you can think of it. The child is still in the belly.
, I already had fetal motility, how can you be so sure that the child will be born safely? Even if the child is born, he may not be able to grow up safely... Wuwuwu... Why is my life so miserable?"
Zhu's mother looked apologetic. She had also thought about the possibility of an accident, but felt that the chance was very small. A wealthy family like Zhu's family could hire the best doctors and use the best medicine to protect their children.
, nothing should happen.
She only regretted that she was too anxious at the time and didn't see her feet clearly, so she kicked the stone and caused her daughter to lose the child. Otherwise, her family's situation would never be like this.
As long as the child is here, it is impossible for the Zhu family to allow the child to have a gambling grandfather, and all the difficulties can be solved.
Unfortunately, the child is no longer here.
Mother Zhu wiped her face, feeling increasingly uncomfortable. At this moment, the door was pushed open, and her mother-in-law, who had been kind in the past, was now standing at the door with a gloomy face.
"My son was cut off from his descendants by you. Are you very proud of him?"
Mrs. Xu: "...I didn't. I didn't pay attention at the time..."
In fact, Zhu's mother didn't care much about whether the child in Xu Caidi's belly could be delivered safely and asked the doctor to preserve the fetus. She just couldn't bear to part with her grandson. What she hated was that the Xu family was trying to kill her son!
"Vicious woman, I want you to pay the price!" She turned her head and ordered: "Come here, beat me hard and then throw you out."
Mr. Xu was woken up in his sleep. He was injured and his head hurt. He didn't know what day it was. Before he could react, he was beaten again. At first, he begged for mercy, but then he just thought about it.
He cried out in pain, and when he could no longer scream, the person who did it started dragging him again.
Feeling that he was about to be dragged out of the door, he was immediately frightened out of his wits: "Mom, if you have something to say, please don't throw me out!"
Again, the ultimate goal of the debt collector is to get money, not to have his head beheaded.
If he can't get the money, those people will vent their anger before sending him to the Yamen. His old bones have been beaten several times, how can he stand it?
If you go there, you will die!
He struggled desperately to stay, but he only thought about it. When everyone left, he had already collapsed outside the side door of Zhu's house. Beside him was his wife who was screaming in pain.
The two of them were thinking about where to hide when they heard someone sneer: "Hey, are you two willing to give up?"
Hearing this voice, Mr. Xu shuddered. He was so frightened that he rolled his eyes and fainted. However, the few people who came over did not let him go. They stepped forward and kicked him awake.
"You asked us to postpone the date of collecting the debt. How many times have we postponed it? Where is the money?"
Mr. Xu didn't know how to answer, but he didn't dare not answer: "Wait a little longer..."
"If you wait any longer, we will collect your body." The leader stepped on his chest: "You are really capable of causing trouble. You are almost torturing yourself to death before we take action. Let's go!"
Those people dragged the couple away, and Mrs. Xu knew that her fate would not be good. At her age, she would probably be reduced to serving people in a flower house... She was born in a well-established merchant family, and she had been pampered since she was a child.
, she cares most about chastity. It just so happened that those few people were saying that her skin was delicate and charming.
"No matter how good-looking she is, she is still old. Brother, I am only twenty and have no interest in her."
"You're not interested, we'll be there!" Someone teased: "You can just stay outside the door then, or...are you interested in taking a look?"
…
Mrs. Xu couldn't listen any more. She mustered up the courage and bit her tongue hard.
The two people dragging her were only talking, but they noticed that their hands were getting heavier and heavier. When they turned around, they found that her chin was covered in blood. She was giving out more air and taking in less air.
"Bad luck!" The two men let go: "What should we do now?"
The leader frowned: "The injury is so severe. After treating her and selling it, it won't be enough to pay for the medicine, so just throw it away."
Mrs. Xu, who was unconscious, was thrown to the street corner.
Chu Yunli learned the news two-quarters of an hour later and pondered for a moment: "Send her to the hospital and give her two taels of silver for a consultation."
Nowadays, most women have no control over their fate. Mrs. Xu may have made mistakes, but it was not her intention and she should not have died on the street.
Mr. Xu was beaten, and when he breathed his last, he was thrown into the government office. Before he could be beheaded, he was already dead.
*
That morning, suddenly there were soldiers patrolling the city, asking the people if they had met any strangers.
For a time, the atmosphere in the city was stagnant, and many people were reluctant to go out.
And Chu Yunli dressed in men's clothes, pretending to be a short farmer, and left the city before closing the night before. She personally drove a dilapidated carriage, and there was only a frail woman in the carriage, with dark skin and hair wrapped in cloth.
She was dressed in a shabby cloth again, the most ordinary dress of a peasant woman. When she left the city, the guards guarding the gate were not willing to take a second look.
The woman was Mrs. Qiao. She had been under lockdown recently and was very bored all day long. She was used to going to bed early. Unexpectedly, when she woke up, she felt pain all over her body. Then she realized that she was in a shaking carriage, and the broken body underneath her
The wooden floor can still be vaguely seen on the official road.
What kind of broken carriage is this?
The key is that she should be in the general's mansion, why is she here?
She rushed forward and opened the curtain, but because she was exhausted, she lay down on the wooden board again. She vaguely saw a thin figure in front of her.
"Who are you?"
Hearing the movement behind him, Chu Yunli turned back with a smile: "Are you awake?"
Qiao was sure that she didn't recognize the person in front of her, but she felt that those eyes were vaguely familiar.
"Where are you taking me?"
She found herself in a dense forest, with no village or store in front of her. The road looked like an official road, but she saw no people or carriages. She was so scared that her voice trembled when she spoke.
Chu Yunli smiled: "Qiao Dahai has harmed so many people, and it is no pity for him to die. But he has such courage, and it is all because of your connivance. Everyone has to pay the price for what they have done.
He is already dead, and you...should also suffer retribution."
As soon as he heard that the person who came was not kind, Qiao swallowed: "What do you want to do?"
Chu Yunli raised her eyebrows and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I'm just asking for a favor." She pointed at the towering mountain in front of her: "That's Yunwu Mountain."
Yunwu Mountain?
Recently, many people in the city are talking about Zhu Kangyu who managed to come back with his life after being robbed by the robbers in Yunwu Mountain. Although Mrs. Qiao is under confinement and her subordinates dare not let her out, there are also people who are trying their best to please her.
In order to relieve her boredom, he told her a lot of new things in the city.
Thinking of Zhu Kangyu, she finally remembered who the person in front of her was.
"Zhou!"
These two words were almost squeezed out from between the teeth, full of resentment.
She was grounded, but she did not forget her brother's death. Everything was done by the Zhu family's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. The Zhou family in front of her was the culprit! She gritted her teeth with hatred: "You deserve to die!"
"What a coincidence." Chu Yunli pulled the horse to the path up the mountain and said: "I also think you deserve to die, so I will send you to the mountain and let people spread the news that some generals' wives were robbed by Yunwu Mountain robbers.
The general couldn't bear the insult, so he sent out his troops to suppress the bandits in a rage... This can be regarded as a good thing done for the people in the city."
She turned around and said, "Madam General, Qiao Dahai has caused so many lives. By doing this good deed, you can accumulate some virtue for your siblings. I really mean well, so there is no need to thank me."
Mrs. Qiao was so angry that she yelled: "You whore, let me go... I advise you to stop in time, otherwise, the general will never let you go."
Chu Yunli smiled: "He won't know that I did it."
Mrs. Qiao was just about to retort, but she was so frightened that she was trembling all over. It was so scary to think about these words.
She already knew who sent her up the mountain, and she would definitely complain after being rescued by the general. The general didn't know who sent her here, so that could only mean...she would die.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Qiao shuddered. In panic, she looked around blankly. There was no one around, so she could only save herself.
She gritted her teeth and lunged forward.
Chu Yunli noticed the wind behind her and stepped aside. A slender figure fell off the carriage, and screams were heard almost at the same time. She stopped the horse, jumped off the carriage and walked back, squatting under Qiao
In front of Mr. Shi: "You are asking for trouble."
Qiao's original intention was to push the person down, but she didn't expect that the person who fell down was herself. At this moment, half of her body was in severe pain. She didn't dare to move, let alone get up, and could only let others do what she did.
She doesn't want to die!
If you can't use the hard one, try the soft one. She blinked her eyes and shed tears. The tears were not for show, but because her body was in too much pain and she couldn't stop the tears. She said softly: "Mr. Zhou
, the past has passed, the sea is dead...
I didn't harm you, just think it's my fault. I'll apologize to you and compensate you. No matter what you want, I will try my best to satisfy you. The general and I are husband and wife, even if you temporarily annoyed me,
He will not abandon me. He will also make it up to you."
She specifically mentioned the general, but the woman in front of her was unmoved and continued to persuade her earnestly: "Everyone has to look forward. It is easy for you to be bullied with two children in this city. I will definitely be useful in the future."
place... I promise that I will try my best to help you in the future to make up for the harm my brother has done to you."
Chu Yunli looked down at her: "Are you done?"
Qiao's heart was in her throat: "Please let me go, okay?"
He was too scared, his tone was filled with sadness, and his eyes were full of pleading.
Chu Yunli turned her head and looked: "Those women who were beaten to death by Qiao Dahai have all begged like this, and they cried much more miserably than you. Qiao Dahai didn't let them go either. So, I won't let you go either!"
"
She grabbed the person, threw her directly into the carriage, threw the person with a "bang", and drove the carriage up the mountain without caring whether she was dead or alive.
Ms. Qiao cried out in pain and begged all the way. When she got outside the village, she was so frightened that she cried loudly, but she was kicked down anyway.
As soon as the carriage left, she ran away regardless of her injuries. But there were already many people chasing after her, and they all looked fierce. Ms. Qiao was so frightened that she ran for her life.
Yunwu Mountain is located in a dangerous place, with mountain streams everywhere. Qiao had lived in peace for many years, and had never walked on such a rugged mountain road. She ran away all the way, and saw the people behind her chasing her more and more tightly. In panic, she fell off the cliff.
*
Even if the soldiers didn't deliberately spread the news about the general's wife being kidnapped, such a big thing could not be concealed. It spread widely within a short time.
These robbers are becoming more and more bold. They used to rob people on official roads, but now they dare to enter the city, and even dare to break into the general's mansion... Based on this, is there any safe place in the city?
The outer city gate is unsafe, and now even the inner city gate is like this. This simply leaves no way for people to survive.
The city was filled with pessimism. After hearing this, the general was silent for a long time and said: "Order five thousand troops and follow me to suppress the bandits."
The bandits were not monolithic, but divided into several groups. The general had long heard that they were robbing people on the road, but he didn't take it to heart. You must know that the order he received from the emperor was to protect the outer city wall, not to suppress the bandits.
.If you neglect your duty because of suppressing bandits, you will still be convicted.
According to the general's idea, it is enough to protect the city from foreign invasion. But the situation is different now. The people are so pessimistic, and the general's wife is humiliated... Even if he has already abandoned the Qiao family, he still has to save her.
That day, a large group of officers and soldiers came outside the inner city gate. Chu Yunli also met them on her way back. She pretended to be an ordinary citizen meeting the officers and soldiers and quickly moved the carriage to the side of the road.
The general sat high on his horse and did not glance at her.
When Chu Yunli's carriage passed by, the general seemed to realize something. He looked back and saw only a dilapidated carriage going away.
In less than half a month, the gangsters in the surrounding areas were unable to escape or be caught. The general was ruthless in his tactics and beheaded many people at once. It would probably take several days for the border town to be in the situation where gangsters are everywhere now.
ten years.
The soldiers came back empty-handed and did not find the general's wife.
The gangsters were gone, and the general returned to the city wall. He became colder and more fierce.
*
Before Zhu Kangyu had recovered from his injuries, the gangsters had been wiped out. For the Zhu family, this could not be considered a good thing.
You know, the reason why the Zhu family can make a lot of money in this city is because they dare to transport goods. In the final analysis, it is because the Zhu family has a good relationship with a deputy general in the army, and they can always go with the soldiers who return home to visit relatives.
There is a rule in the army that soldiers take turns to go home to visit relatives, one batch per month.
Almost all the businessmen in the city are following him. Now that the gangsters are gone, everyone can go to other places without waiting until the end of the month. Therefore, the Zhu family's business will definitely be affected.
Father Zhu was a little irritable, his grandson could not be recognized, and his son's illness could not be cured. Now the way to make money was laid out in front of everyone. In the long run, if the Zhu family wanted to make a lot of money, it would be
It's just an idiot's dream. Everything is going wrong.
When Zhu Kangyu learned that he could not have any more children, he was very depressed. He stayed in the house all day and had no appetite at all.
When Xu Caidi learned that her father was gone and her mother disappeared, she was even more devastated. She mustered up the courage to ask to see Zhu Kangyu, but she had to ask him to help find someone no matter what.
Mother Zhu was not very happy.
Seeing this, Xu Caidi threatened to die and insisted on seeing her.
Zhu's mother was furious and divorced her directly.
The Xu family has been defeated, and the general's wife is no longer here. Even if she is here, the so-called relationship between the Xu family and the general's wife is false, and this daughter-in-law is simply a burden.
Xu Caidi held the divorce letter with a look of disbelief on her face, as if the paper was hot to the touch. She threw it away, kept backing away, and screamed: "I don't want it!"
"It's not up to you." Mother Zhu's eyes were fierce: "You, the Xu family, are liars. You have harmed my son like this. I didn't ask you to settle the score, and I was generous enough to let you go. Don't be ignorant."
"My parents were killed by you!" Xu Caidi screamed: "You are extremely vicious, I hate you!"
She yelled and ran out of Zhu's mansion.
She couldn't stay even if she wanted to, and she might even be killed. She didn't want to die.
Not long after she ran out of Zhu's Mansion, Xu Caidi was hugged by someone running out of the alley. She was so frightened that she subconsciously wanted to struggle, but as soon as she moved, she noticed a familiar aura. She turned her head and saw clearly what was in front of her.
The person was instantly overjoyed: "Mother!"
Mrs. Xu was very simple and very different from the luxurious lady she once was. She took her daughter's hand and said, "Let's go."
Xu Caidi looked confused: "Where to go?"
Mrs. Xu didn’t know where she could go. She had secretly sent a message to her brother before. He didn’t dare to take her in, so he just asked someone to give her some money. Although it wasn’t much, it was enough for her to buy a house and land in another unfamiliar place and wait for her to settle down.
, and then find a marriage for each of her children... As for the wealth, she doesn't want it anymore.
She doesn't have much ambition, and many people are still staring at them. Although the master is dead, the debts are still there, so it is best to stay as far away from here as possible.
"Jiangnan has beautiful scenery and many scholars. Let's go and take a look."
Xu Caidi was not a smart person and followed her mother blankly. When she realized what she was doing, she was already standing on Moon Street. When she was confused, she saw her mother kowtow to Zhou Anyu's house.
"Nai Die, if it weren't for her, I would be dead."
After kowtowing, Mrs. Xu found her son who had been hidden by the couple in the outer city. The mother and son bought a simple carriage and quietly left the city for the south of the Yangtze River.
*
Father Zhu recently discovered that Zhou Anyu was targeting his family.
At first he didn't take this hairy girl seriously, but later he found that she was particularly difficult to deal with. His hair was falling out more and more, and he finally couldn't help but come to visit her.
Then, he was turned away.
Chu Yunli did not show up himself, but made an appointment with a few wealthy businessmen and some brave people in the city to form a caravan to bring in freight from outside and send the purchased skins to Jiangnan and other prosperous places.
As a result, the Zhu family's business was completely robbed. They lowered their prices, and others lowered them even more.
If this continues, it will probably be impossible for the Zhu family to earn back the money they previously paid to the Xu family.
Father Zhu was so busy all day that he could not sleep at night and could not eat. When he returned to the house that day, he heard that his youngest son was ill.
Aunt Lan, the biological mother of the youngest son, is a very well-behaved and timid woman. She was very ill a few days ago, and Zhu's father ordered a doctor to be called in, but he had no time to visit her.
But the younger son is different. If the eldest son is poisoned like that, he will never be able to give birth. If the younger son dies at an early age, the Zhu family may really have no heirs.
How does this work?
He rushed over immediately. After the doctor checked his pulse, his expression was speechless. After a while, he tentatively said: "Young Master is still young. It is the time when you are growing up. There is no need to diet."
Diet?
After Zhu's father realized what the doctor said, his face turned red with anger. Feeling ashamed and angry, he went back to the main courtyard directly.
As soon as he entered the door, he slapped the pale-faced Zhu Mu hard.
"Vicious woman!"
Zhu's mother received the slap suddenly and clearly saw the disgust on the man's face. She laughed loudly: "You know?"
"You're crazy!" Zhu's father was furious: "What's so funny? Kang Jian never thought about competing with Kang Yu. He only knows how to read, and you can't even tolerate this?"
"Of course he can't argue. Because everything in the house belongs to him in the end. Why...wuwuwu..." Zhu's mother cried loudly: "My Kang Yu has been smart since he was a child, and he can learn everything at once.
After working so hard, I started running a business with you at the age of ten. But in the end..." Lying on the bed, I looked like a useless person.
Father Zhu looked at her coldly: "I have said before that my children are my bottom line. No matter how jealous you are, you can't touch them."
In the past few years, he had never cared about the affairs of the back house, leaving everything to his wife. In his opinion, this was trust.
"First you attacked An Yu and pushed such a good daughter-in-law away. Then you attacked Kang Jian. You wanted to kill off the Zhu family. You are extremely vicious! I want to divorce you!"
He said that he really went to write a letter of divorce.
"I don't want it!" Mother Zhu gritted her teeth: "I am a member of the Zhu family when I am born, and a ghost of the Zhu family when I die. If you want to divorce, I will die for you. It just so happens that Kang Yu doesn't want to live anymore, so I will take him with me when I leave.
.”
She had a crazy look on her face, no joke at all.
Zhu's father was a little frightened, but he didn't write a divorce letter after all.
Things at home were a mess, and in the final analysis they were all trivial matters. The most important thing was to do business. After thinking about it, Zhu's father came to see Zhou Anyu.
Many people in the city have prospered after receiving her guidance. Even the Zhou family has opened many shops. I don't know whether it is a coincidence or unintentional, but those people have more or less diluted the interests of the Zhu family.
This time, Chu Yunli saw him.
"Anyu...Dong Zhou's family." Zhu's father changed his tune hurriedly when he saw his former daughter-in-law's expression turned ugly.
Chu Yunli nodded.
Father Zhu smiled and asked tentatively: "My family's business has been getting worse and worse recently. Do you have any ideas?"
"You deserve it!" Chu Yunli seemed to be smiling but not smiling: "Being rich is unkind, and you bully others just because you have money. If you don't lose, who will lose?"
This is too ugly to hear.
Father Zhu's face was livid: "I want to say, if you continue to force me, I will..."
Chu Yunli raised his eyebrows: "How?"
Now that the general has left men in the city, if anyone bullies men and dominates women and harms his neighbors, he will be back soon.
Father Zhu grinded his teeth: "What are you going to do to let me go?"
Chu Yunli opened her mouth and said: "I want Mrs. Zhu."
Father Zhu: "..." He knew that what happened at the beginning was not over yet.
Anyway, that woman will only cause trouble now and threaten him with death. She might as well send him away.
"good!"
Zhu's father didn't come forward himself and only asked the steward to get the person.
Mother Zhu kept an eye on him and soon knew what would happen to her after she was captured. Naturally, she was not happy, but she couldn't struggle with the servants and couldn't see him. The more she thought about it, the more she hated him, so she simply blamed herself
She needs to change clothes... She has been the matron of the house for many years, and everyone is happy to meet her demands even if they are not excessive.
She entered the inner room, quietly climbed out of the window, ran to the warehouse and lit a fire.
If she and her son don't get it, it will take advantage of the mother and son. It's better to light a fire.
If Kang Yu can't get it, no one else wants it.
Zhu's father was in the study room in the front yard when he saw a fire in the warehouse and ran over in a hurry. He lost a shoe in the process and didn't care.
There were all valuables in the warehouse. Although there were people watching, no one thought that his wife would run in and set fire to it! When he arrived, the fire was already very strong. He gritted his teeth and rushed in anyway, planning to take the valuables.
Grab the calligraphy and painting.
As a result, he was carried out after being choked by smoke.
When he woke up, the warehouse was in ruins.
It can be said that all the accumulation of several generations of the Zhu family is in that warehouse. Now that the business cannot be done, if there is another fire, the family wealth will be reduced by 90% in an instant.
Father Zhu was so angry that he lost his temper.
Seeing this, the steward hurriedly said: "Madam is in the house, and the little one is surrounded by people..."
Father Zhu's leg was injured and it was difficult to walk. He went straight to the main room with his guards. When facing his wife's provocative eyes, he was no longer angry and said coldly: "Hit me!"
The burning of the warehouse really made him angry.
Zhu's mother finished lighting the fire and wanted to run away. She had chosen a route, but she was intercepted and taken back.
Facing five or six guards, she tried to struggle, but she couldn't. By the time everyone retreated, she was already dying.
Zhu Mu died late at night a few days later.
The maid only discovered it when she brought her food in the morning. She didn't even know when she went there.
After the funeral, Zhu Kangyu still didn't cheer up, and soon he was so thin that only a handful of bones were left. Although he was still alive, he refused to go out because he was afraid of facing the eyes of outsiders, especially he didn't dare to see Zhou Anyu... He had a dream
, dreamed that Zhou Anyu failed to conquer Qiao Dahai, and finally took the child with the women who were sent away and became the wronged souls of the Qiao family.
He really felt guilty.
The Zhu family's business was not as good as before, and it gradually became a small merchant who was not popular in the city. Zhu's father was about forty. Because he was lame in one leg and lost all the family business, he became as sluggish as an old man on the verge of death.
He was obsessed and refused to sell the old house. The house was large and required a lot of people to take care of it, and all the profits from the several shops were spent on it. Eventually, the family could not even eat meat as they wished.
Every time he passed by Zhou Anyu's shop in the city, he would feel a little dazed when looking at the lively scene inside.
This excitement originally belonged to the Zhu family, and Zhou Anyu's things should also belong to the Zhou family. Unfortunately, all of this was lost due to his carelessness.
If he had paid attention to the back house and disciplined his wife, if he had protected Zhou Anyu and not sent her to the Qiao Mansion, all the wealth and glory belonged to the Zhu family. Not only would the Zhu family not have declined, but it would have improved to a higher level.
building.
There is no turning back, and there is no regret medicine to buy. Everything is just what if.
