Mrs. Zhu said so, probably because she knew that Su Yucheng was serious, and she never came out of the east chamber.
Su Yucheng was really serious. After Su Xiucai and Yao Chengcheng came back, he personally invited them to a place and mentioned the matter of wanting to divorce their wives.
In fact, Su Yucheng didn't need to invite him, Yao Cheng and Hui Niang already knew about it.
The Su family's commotion was so fierce that Mrs. Li from the Yao family next door wanted to climb up a ladder to watch it, so Yao Cheng and Hui Niang were listening to a live broadcast.
"You really plan to divorce her, so what will Dong Geer and the others do?" After all, Niang Hui is a woman, knowing that after a woman in this world is divorced, her life will be very difficult in the future, so she couldn't help but persuade her a few words.
"Brother Dong and the others have never cared about her except breastfeeding since they were born. When the younger sister is at home, the younger sister takes care of the baby. When the younger sister is not at home, they all point at the mother. As long as she can do a little bit of the basics of being a wife and a mother Even today, I won’t think about it.”
"It's not because of the orchid grass?"
Su Yucheng was stunned for a moment, then laughed and said, "Hui Niang, why did you even think that way? I just blurted out a word to annoy her in a moment of impatience. Your elder brother is incompetent, so he won't spoil a good girl. "
Mother Hui wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Yao Cheng: "Since the eldest brother has made up his mind, let's take a break. It's not that I am a sister-in-law who talks too much. Mr. Zhu is really not a good person, so let's leave it at home." It's the root of the family's misfortune, Brother Dong and the others are still young, but somehow they are influenced by her when they grow up."
Now that the words have been said like this, Wu just wiped his tears and said that he has done something wrong, and he can't say anything ugly, only Su Xiucai has not expressed his position, and it is his attitude that is the most important.
"father."
Su Xiucai looked at Su Yucheng. Although he left early and returned late, and rarely talked to his children when he was free, he also noticed Su Yucheng's recent changes. Several times, Su Xiucai had the urge to burst into tears. There was only one son in his old Su family, and he was in the same line as Su Yucheng. He was more anxious than anyone else about his son being ineffective.
Now that his son has undergone earth-shaking changes, Su Xiucai feels very relieved. In fact, he has long disliked the Zhu family, but if his son doesn't say anything, how can he be a father-in-law and do it for him.
"You're not too young anymore. Once you've made up your mind, go ahead and do it, but before you do it, you have to think carefully."
"Father, I understand." Su Yucheng nodded.
Probably this was the biggest change in his life, and this decision was made by himself. Su Yucheng under the candlelight gave people a feeling of being reborn.
He stood up and said, "I'm going to write a divorce letter, just to send her back to her hometown—" He looked at Yao Cheng with some hesitation, "I don't know if my sister-in-law has any good ideas?"
Yao Cheng pondered for a while: "It's not difficult to handle. There are many car and horse dealers in Beijing. They not only deliver goods, but also give people away. As long as they can afford the money."
As for the silver, the Su family has it. When they were leaving Jinwang Mansion, Yaoniang gave them all the money she had saved in the past few years, which totaled about forty or fifty taels, saying that it was for them to settle down.
Su Yucheng nodded his thanks and went to write the divorce letter.
Although he failed in school, he also studied with Su Xiucai for a few years when he was young. Writing a letter of divorce was not a big deal for him.
In fact, to be honest, a large part of the reason why Su Yucheng was so idle and could not succeed in military affairs was because Su Xiucai had high hopes for him in his early years and forced him to read books for many years. It's a pity that Su Yucheng's rotten wood can't be carved. After trying several times and even failing to pass the entrance examination for a child, Su Xiucai finally gave up. But Su Yucheng was not young at that time, and missed the best time to learn a craft. Some physical work can be done, but Su Yucheng can't lift his shoulders or lift his hands. day.
After Su Yucheng finished writing the divorce letter, he went to the East Chamber without delay.
During the dinner, Mrs. Zhu didn't come out, so no one called him. At this moment, taking advantage of no one outside, Mrs. Zhu secretly went to the kitchen to fill a bowl of cold rice, and was devouring it hungrily.
Hearing the knock on the door, she hurriedly hid the bowl and went to open the door. Su Yucheng stood outside the door.
She curled her lips and sneered: "What are you doing? Even if you beg me this time, I won't forgive you. "
It's a pity that she forgot to wipe her mouth while stealing food. Reflecting the light from the room, the oily light at the corner of her mouth made her a bit ridiculous.
Su Yucheng inexplicably felt a sense of sadness. He didn't know whether it was for himself or for the other party. He handed over the divorce letter in his hand: "This is the divorce letter. I will ask someone to send you back to your hometown. I told my father that I will follow my sister's divorce letter." I will give you twenty taels of the silver I gave you, which is enough for you to live in your hometown for a few years. As for the future, I hope you can take care of yourself."
Hearing this, Zhu was shocked.
Her mouth remained in an open position, and shock was written all over her face. She couldn't speak, but she could only make a gurgling sound when she wanted to speak.
Su Yucheng couldn't bear to look any longer, "You should rest early." After speaking, he turned and left.
"Su Yucheng..."
Zhu's crying and cursing lasted for a whole night, disturbing the neighbors.
Until the middle of the night, a nearby family couldn't take it any longer, and came to knock on the door of Su's house, saying that if the disturbance continued, they would report to the police, and Zhu's family stopped making trouble.
The next day, both Su Xiucai and Su Yucheng went out with dark circles under their eyes. Lancao didn't dare to stay with Su's house, but went to Yao's house next door, because Mrs. Zhu seemed crazy, and when she saw her, she went crazy and wanted to beat her.
After two full days of quarreling, seeing that the Su family was unmoved, Mrs. Zhu finally changed her ways and began to act pitiful. It's just that after the hysterical riots in the past two days, everyone no longer believed that she would repent, and even Dong Geer's children avoided her.
Originally, the three children were not close to Mrs. Zhu, but Mrs. Zhu not only ignored them, but sometimes Brother Dong and the others would cry and beat them when they were ignorant. How could the children get close to her. As soon as Mrs. Zhu called Dong Ge'er three, Dong Ge'er was fine, already sensible, just hiding. The other two young ones were all crying for their grandmother, and they only burrowed into Wu's arms.
After Yao Cheng found a car dealer and negotiated the price, Su Yucheng finally talked to Mrs. Zhu.
Mrs. Zhu probably also knew that the matter could not be undone, and besides, she was most shameless, and it was the extreme to make such a mess, so she didn't try to beg anymore, packed her things and planned to return home.
Just like that, Mrs. Zhu left the Su family with a small burden.
This trip probably means that we will never see each other again in this life.
Su Yucheng had no way to get away, and it was Yao Cheng who personally sent Mrs. Zhu to the car dealership. The silver had already been paid, and Yao Cheng didn't have anything extra to say to Mrs. Zhu, he just said hello and left.
Mrs. Zhu sat on the stone steps beside her with her bundle in her arms and waited. The people in the carriages and horses next to them are loading goods. People who pick up people like this by the way, all follow the convoy, and the road is very safe.
At this time, Zhu's heart was full of grief and anger, and he was full of hatred towards the Su family and even the Yao family.
She hated those people whose consciences were eaten by dogs, she would not criticize herself, if she would, she and Su Yucheng would not be where they are today.
"You are the wife of the Su family, Mrs. Zhu?" A black figure suddenly enveloped the light in front of Mrs. Zhu.
"You are?"
"My master wants to ask Mrs. Zhu to talk about something."
As soon as King Jin left the gate of the Ministry of Industry, he saw a familiar face on a street corner not far away.
He didn't look much, and walked along the street. At this time, it was the time when the subordinates of various governments were on duty, and Qipan Street was very lively, with cars and horses flowing like streams, and people coming and going.
Now that King Jin is walking up and down on foot, he can no longer attract anyone's attention. Even if we meet, the other party just nods, or bows his hands. Everyone knows that His Highness King Jin seems to be a little cold, but he is not a person with a lot of airs. .
It wasn't until they left Qipan Street that the middle-aged man in the blue shirt hurriedly caught up with King Jin.
King Jin stopped and looked at the other party.
"His Royal Highness, I don't know what my father-in-law mentioned. What do you think? It's been a long time, and you still don't have an accurate answer, which makes my father-in-law very unhappy." The middle-aged man was thin Tall physique, long face, character-splayed eyebrows, a pair of shining eyes, looks very capable. Anyone who is familiar with various houses and houses in central Beijing will know that this person is the deputy manager of Xu Guogong's mansion, Xu Ji.
Today Xu Ji spoke very bluntly, obviously he had lost his patience, and the person who lost his patience was naturally not the person in front of him, but Xu Guogong behind him.
In fact, Xu Guogong's ability to endure for such a long time was beyond King Jin's expectations. Before the new year's end last year, Xu Guogong had mentioned to him the matter of retiring Princess Jin and helping Xu Yueru to the throne. Jin Wang has been ignoring these people, he did not expect that the other party finally found them impatiently.
"This king thought I made it very clear to you that it is the meaning of the sage not to abolish the concubine. If it is abolished, the position of the concubine of this king will not be the daughter of your Xu family."
Xu Ji probably didn't expect that King Jin would not speak, but when he spoke, he was so straightforward, quite embarrassing. However, this embarrassment was only fleeting, and he lowered his voice and threatened: "His Royal Highness, is this for sale, or is he looking at someone else? If you are so merciless, you are not afraid of offending my Duke Xu."
Jin Wang looked at him and just smiled coldly. Xu Ji probably knew that there was no way to talk about this matter. He cupped his hands and said coldly: "I will pass on this to the Lord. I hope Your Highness will not regret it."
The king of Jin ignored him and walked around him.
Xu Ji glanced at his back coldly, then hurried into an alley and disappeared.
When King Jin stepped into the gate of Rongxi Courtyard, a fat cat entangled him, and it was Huahua.
Huahua's hair is fluffy and smooth, and she is already a big cat. It looks chubby, like a miniature leopard. When it jumped up, it scrambled around King Jin's feet in various ways, slipping back and forth between his feet, and King Jin struggled to move forward.
Yaoniang saw King Jin coming back from the window, but she didn't see him coming in for a long time. When she came out out of curiosity, she saw such a scene and said with a smile: "If you continue to pester him, be careful and you will be grounded again. If you get punished every time, you don’t have a long memory.”
Huahua didn't know if she understood, she didn't even look at Yaoniang, and circled around twice before coming to the foot of King Jin and squatting down.
"Xiaobao hasn't come back yet?" Logically, Xiaobao should have returned from school in the palace right now.
"Did His Majesty leave him to talk?"
This is Yaoniang's guess, but this guess is not without purpose. These days, Emperor Hongjing was very concerned about Xiaobao's homework, calling him over from time to time to test his homework. It's also because this kid will come. After being asked twice by Emperor Hongjing, he knows that he will go to Qianqing Palace to find the emperor's grandfather without being asked.
The little emperor and grandson have already said it, and the people below will naturally report it, so the grandparent and grandson have to contact each other every now and then. Occasionally, Yaoniang thought of it, she really didn't know how she was born in the first place, but she gave birth to such a clever kid.
She was talking to King Jin while walking to the next room. A few red silks also came in, holding King Jin's homely clothes, and a handkerchief with a copper basin of hot water. Although the summer was over, the weather was still hot. Walking all the way back, a thin layer appeared on King Jin's forehead. sweat.
After serving the king of Jin to scrub and wash, and changed clothes, the two came to sit on the big kang.
Yaoniang hesitated and said: "You said that Xiaobao is so high-profile, will it attract people's attention?"
King Jin looked at her with raised eyebrows, she was not stupid, he grabbed her soft hand and played with it: "Don't worry, this king has his own opinion on this matter."
"I'm afraid it's impossible to guard against." Yaoniang is the ultimate in being able to say this. She has never been too fond of asking about outside affairs, and King Jin didn't want her to know, so she didn't ask, but it was about her son Xiaobao. , When a mother's heart is always full of many unnecessary worries.
King Jin patted her hand: "You probably don't know, sometimes a high profile is a kind of protection. Don't underestimate the father, whoever dares to touch Xiaobao at this time is a naked provocation, no one would be so stupid. "
Yaoniang has a face of disbelief. In her heart, Emperor Hongjing really wasn't very wise and mighty, he was a little smarter and more powerful than the rich man whose son was fighting for his family property. Although she has not been in Beijing for long, she has also encountered many things. If Emperor Hongjing is really as wise and powerful as King Jin said, how could so many things happen in the palace
His Royal Highness the crown prince is quite honorable, she has been killed so many times, she doesn't think that her little treasure can compare to the crown prince's weight.
Yaoniang looked around and saw no one around, so she whispered her thoughts to King Jin.
King Jin laughed, and the reason why he laughed was because Yaoniang looked so cute and sneaky. The point is that sneaking around is useless at all, if it can be hidden from the eyes and ears of others, probably there is no wall that does not leak in this world.
This Rongxi Courtyard seems ordinary, but they don't know that there are layers of guards in the dark, not even a fly can fly in from outside, and the waiters in the courtyard are also carefully selected to enter the courtyard. So eavesdropping really wouldn't happen here, and even if it did, no one would dare to tell it outside.
Besides, there is still dark ten.
"Do you think this kind of thing happened to Prince Hui?"
Hearing this, Yaoniang froze for a moment.
King Jin pulled her over, tapped her pink lips, and said with dark eyes: "Father does everything with his own thoughts and purposes. Don't worry too much, even if something goes wrong with Father, And the king's people."
Yaoniang thought for a while, but she didn't know what she thought of, her eyes flickered again and again: "You mean your Majesty treats Xiaobao... this..."
She panicked. Not a surprise, but really flustered.
King Jin patted her: "That's why I told you not to think too much, Xiaobao is only so old, it's too early to say these things now. You just need to know that no one will be stupid enough to deal with our son in the open, Even if..." Even if there is, it will never be such a dark method.
"Even what?"
King Jin's eyes flashed, "It's nothing."
