Marry a powerful minister and remain a widow?I’m done with the book-wearing female role!

Aunt Shen whispered a few words, and Mrs. Shen looked solemn, told the maid to pack the package, and left in a hurry.

The Xie family has deep roots and many branches, each with its own agenda. The clan members had just come out of prison, and troubles came to their doorstep.

Jiang Yuzhu stared at the koi in the pond, became playful, and put her fingers into the water. The koi soon swam over in groups.

"The koi in the south of the Yangtze River are not as fat as those in the capital."

After leaving the capital for a long time, Jiang Yuzhu felt homesick again.

I just arrived in Jiangnan and settled down, but I haven't received any letters from my parents yet.

The red carp stared at the koi thoughtfully, and subconsciously said: "I heard that the fat koi in the Jingcheng Mansion was specially brought from the south of the Yangtze River by the master. I was originally worried that the acclimatization would not suit the soil. At first glance, it turned out to be better than the ones raised in the Xie Mansion in the south of the Yangtze River. Well done."

Hong Li would say that all this is due to the blessing of his wife, a prosperous husband and a prosperous family.

Jiang Yuzhu pinched Hong Li's nose and said with a smile: "You girl is really good at flattering!"

"The servant girl is telling the truth."

Hong Li came close to Jiang Yuzhu and saw that there were people on both sides of her. She said bluntly, "I just went to the big kitchen to bring snacks. I heard that something happened to Miss Fang Wei."

Xie Wei is engaged and was originally scheduled to get married at the end of the month.

The Xie family was controlled by bandits and imprisoned, and the marriage was delayed.

"The cook said that Mr. Li has never shown up and sent someone to deliver the divorce papers this morning."

Xie Wei was not at fault. The Li family did not inform the Xie family and broke off the engagement immediately. This was a warning to the world that Xie Wei's reputation was damaged.

People who originally didn't know the truth became more and more suspicious that Xie Wei had been raped by bandits.

"Madam, Mr. Li is too ruthless. Even if he has the idea of ​​​​breaking off the engagement, he must discuss it with the Xie family in advance. This is not taking the Xie family seriously."

Hong Jin added that a big family has a lot of troubles.

Fortunately, my wife lives in the Xie Mansion in the capital. The population is simple, the servants are obedient, and there is no need to manage the back house.

With all this trouble, Mrs. Shen won't be able to sleep again.

"Miss Wei was happily waiting to get married, but suddenly a bolt from the blue struck her. She couldn't bear it and drank rat poison in a fit of anger."

The doctor from the Xie Mansion has gone to see a doctor, and he should be fine.

Hong Li lamented: "There are great rules in Jiangnan, and honors are like shackles. Miss Wei has done nothing wrong."

Jiang Yuzhu stroked her belly, shook her head slowly, and sighed: "This is how the world is. It has always been very harsh on women. If I become a mother in the future, I must tell Wanwan that no matter what happens, I, the mother, will be hers." backing."

Since becoming pregnant, Jiang Yuzhu has become more understanding of her mother, Mrs. Chen.

There was chaos in the Xie family. Xie Wei's mother-in-law, Sun Shi, made a fuss and went to the Li family to demand an explanation, but the clan members strongly stopped her to save face.

Early the next morning, Jiang Yuzhu took a carriage out of the house and happened to see Mrs. Sun kneeling in the main courtyard, looking depressed and embarrassed.

"Miss Wei has been bullied like this by the Li family. People like the Xie family still claim to be of high family status and don't bother to go to the Li family to cause trouble. They swallow their anger. They really want to save face and suffer!"

Ningxiang didn't like Sun, and couldn't help but feel sympathy when she saw Sun standing up for her daughter.

Jiang Yuzhu leaned against the car wall, her expression did not change much, but she told Hong Jin: "Tell Cui Ji to increase the protection fees of the Li family and the Guo family several times. The Xie family is my wife's husband's family after all, and we cannot tolerate these scum." Being a bitch."

Su Cheng was under her control, and the Li family dared to break off the engagement. Does this mean they didn't take Jiang Yuzhu seriously?

"Madam, I don't need your instructions. After Chui Ji got the news, he had already sent someone to ask for money!"

However, in two days, Su City has returned to normal.

In the city, Zhou Pingjiang and Huo's husband and wife led people on patrol to maintain order.

As soon as the carriage came out of Xie's Mansion and entered the street, a dozen people suddenly appeared in front of it.

The leader was a man wearing a green shirt and a scholar's uniform. His eyes were full of anger, his hands were spread out, and he led his men to intercept the carriage.

"Who is ahead?"

Hong Li opened the window screen, guessed the identity of the person, and said politely, "A good dog doesn't block the way!"

"you……"

The green-shirted scholar was furious, his face as cold as ice, and asked, "Is this how Mrs. Xie disciplines her subordinates?"

"Who are you?"

Hongjin poked her head out and said disdainfully, "Is it related to you? It's just a carrot and not a worry."

"Step aside!"

The maids said something to each other, which made Mr. Li tremble all over. He had never seen such an unreasonable person!

"Master Xie is a man whom we and other scholars admire. He is a noble man. Why would he marry such a woman who is ignorant of etiquette?"

Mr. Li mentioned Xie Zhao, his eyes were full of reverence, and he looked at the few maids who showed their faces, and his tone was unkind.

Inside the carriage, Ningxiang was fanning the ice basin, making the carriage air-conditioned.

Hong Li squatted down and massaged Jiang Yuzhu's slightly swollen calves.

As for Mr. Li's rude words outside the carriage, Jiang Yuzhu didn't listen to a word.

She didn't care what an outsider said.

There was tea, snacks, and snacks. Jiang Yuzhu was looking through letters. The case Xie Zhao wrote about last time was the key to revealing the murderer.

Mr. Li faced off against the carriage and stood there holding a stick of incense, sweating profusely.

The sun was shining brightly, and Jiang Yuzhu's coachman had tea and snacks. It seemed that the people he brought with him were comparable to those who came to stand for punishment.

Wiping a sweat, Mr. Li couldn't help it anymore. He coughed twice and said: "Mrs. Xie, you led private soldiers into the city and asked for protection money privately. Are you trying to rebel? In this way, you are discrediting Mr. Xie." Clean reputation!"

"Master Xie is very talented and loves the people like a son. If he learns of your villainous behavior, he will definitely divorce his wife out of shame."

"A vicious woman has violated the Seven Outcome Rules and does not understand the meaning of female precepts and female virtues..."

Mr. Li kept talking, but he just broke off the engagement according to common sense. Before the Xie family could stand up, they were retaliated by Jiang Yuzhu.

Those private soldiers were not collecting protection fees, they almost robbed the Li family!

When the Li family learned that the incident was caused by his insistence on breaking up the engagement, they complained quite a lot about him.

Mr. Li didn't feel that he was wrong. He was an upright scholar and prided himself on his character. How could he marry an innocent woman?

Even if Xie Wei is a member of the Xie family, he doesn't want such shabby shoes to bring shame to his ancestors.

"Mrs. Xie..."

Mr. Li wanted to talk shamelessly again, and Hong Jin and others really couldn't listen anymore.

Jiang Yuzhu had just finished reading the letter and said excitedly: "Wonderful, so wonderful!"

The case written by Xie Zhao has a twists and turns and many twists and turns, and you don't even know who the murderer is until the end.

In fact, the clues have already formed a big network, and it only needs to be peeled off, and the truth will come to light.

"lady……"

It was hard for Hong Li to disappoint her, but Li's scolding was so unpleasant that she wanted to get out of the carriage and slap him.

Her wife ran rampant in the capital, how could she have suffered such injustice?

Jiang Yuzhu waved her hand, pointed at the gap in the carriage and said with a smile: "Why are you angry? It's such a hot day. Look at his dry mouth and sticking out his tongue. Doesn't he look like a pug?"

"Hong Jin, is there any needlework in the car?"

Jiang Yuzhu yawned, and when the ice basin was completely opened, the car felt so comfortable, and the battle was quick.

Hong Jin opened the small table, took out a sewing kit and said, "Yes."

"Since you all think his words are unpleasant, sew his mouth shut..."
