"You know the relationship between the third and first wives, don't you? Didn't Wang tell you that our relationship is particularly bad?"

"After the family is divided, each family will live their own lives. Don't mention whether you are a concubine or not, or a mistress or not."

"I will still beat you up even if your sister comes over!"

"You dare to show off in our house? Don't you think whether your bones are strong enough for me to beat you?"

"Go and call him quickly. I'm afraid Chen Kang won't come. My husband has been itching to do something recently, and it seems Chen Kang is also itching to do something."

Cui Yunzhu stood with her hands on her hips in the crack of the door, as if she was going to kick Wang Xiuchun off the mountain if she dared to rush in again.

Wang Xiuchun looked at Chen Yan behind her for help, but saw only disgust and contempt in his eyes.

She felt hurt and sad. She did this just to survive. Was there anything wrong with that?

It seemed that she had no chance of entering the Chen family at the moment, so she could only return to the old house in shame.

Even if Wang was there, she would at least have a room to sleep in. But if she was at Chen's house, she might be beaten to pieces by Cui Yunzhu in no time!

He was already in pain all over, and today he was grabbed twice by Wang and kicked twice by Cui Yunzhu. Wang Xiuchun walked with a limp.

After the woman left, Zheng Xialan started chattering.

"I can't believe my cousin is such a person!"

Halfway through her words, she paused and overturned her own words, "In fact, it's not hard to see that he is such a person."

"hey-hey......"

She laughed twice.

"I really want to go and watch the fun." Cui Yunzhu said suddenly.

Zheng Xialan's eyes lit up with gossip, and then she heard her third cousin's wife say, "Forget it. The old house might be in chaos. There's no point in going there."

The light in her eyes dimmed in an instant. Oh, it seems that I can only rely on my sister to gossip about what is going on.

.........

Changnan County, Wangjia.

Aunt Qin was sitting in the side courtyard. When she stood up, she collapsed. Fortunately, the maid next to her was quick to help her up.

Seeing that her aunt was unable to walk, the little maid quickly helped her lie down on the bed.

She looked at the dilapidated state of the house today, and the contrast with its former splendor was simply horrible!

She cried and said, "Wuwuwuwu, Auntie, why don't we write a letter to the eldest master."

"Now the master and the eldest son are not at home, and the lady is the housekeeper. The lady said that there is not much food left at home, and she has already driven many people out."

"Now I am the only servant left in our yard, and she is still not satisfied with this and is even withholding your food!"

"Aunt, you don't even have the strength to walk now. If this continues, I'm afraid you won't be able to hold on until the eldest master comes back..."

The little maidservant knew that Aunt Qin had a kind heart, so she vented all her grievances at once without restraint.

Aunt Qin looked at her crying beside the bed and felt extremely sad. How could she not know that the lady had been holding a grudge against her ever since Shuhui ran away from the marriage.

Because Shuhui ran away from her marriage, her own precious daughter had to marry him.

Marry the county magistrate's illegitimate son, who spends his days eating, drinking, and having fun, is uneducated, and is fond of red-light districts.

How could the lady not feel hatred in her heart!

The world is in such chaos now. The master and Zheng'er are trapped in other counties and dare not come back. The Madam's family is the only one left in the Wang family.

She will definitely torture herself to death.

Why don’t you want to write a letter to your son?

But it is still uncertain whether this letter will ultimately be a letter for help or a death warrant.

After the famine began, the county town was in chaos. Not only were people burning, killing and looting, but there were also people committing adultery and raping women in the streets!

If it weren't for the Wang family's servants guarding it, it would probably be a ruin now.

In this situation, how could she dare to let Zheng'er come back?

Aunt Qin shook her head and spoke weakly.

"Go, stop crying and pour me a glass of water."

She patted the back of the maid's hand soothingly. The maid stood up and went to the table to pour water. As soon as she picked up the kettle, she kept pouring water and turned back to Aunt Qin with a wry smile.

"Auntie, there's no water."

After saying this, the little maid could no longer hold back her tears.

Aunt Qin's thoughts drifted further and further away, and she thought of her own daughter.

It has been nearly a month, and I still don’t know how Shuhui is doing, and I can’t help but feel heartbroken.

If I had known earlier, I should not have let her go even if I wanted her to marry that playboy!

The world is so chaotic nowadays. Thinking of what she saw when she went out half a month ago, she couldn't help but pinch her thigh hard, restraining herself from thinking about it.

No, no...

Her Shuhui will definitely be safe and sound, definitely!

At night, several men in black climbed over the wall from the side door of the palace and entered the courtyard without anyone noticing.

Although there are still some servants in the palace, the daily supply of food is limited.

People tend to doze off when they don't have enough food, especially at night.

Several servants are now huddled together and dozing off, so who would pay attention to whether anyone is sneaking in?

The master only gives so little food, only a fool would guard it loyally for twelve hours a day.

After one of the men in black came down, he stretched his hand towards the wall again, and then a petite figure jumped into his arms.

"Be careful not to get hurt."

The man's deep voice sounded.

Wang Shuhui nodded obediently, then pulled the second child's sleeve and led him to her mother's yard.

As soon as she entered the yard, Wang Shuhui's heart began beating wildly in her body, without a single pattern.

She looked at the desolate courtyard and didn't dare to push open the door and go in.

Aunt Qin vaguely heard someone calling her. The voice was soft and gentle, just like the tone she used to coax her daughter.

A smile unconsciously appeared on the corners of her mouth.

"mother......."

The voice in my ear sounded like crying.

Aunt Qin forced herself to get rid of the distress, opened her eyes, and actually saw her own daughter!

Her eyes were instantly filled with tears and she thought she was about to die.

But it’s a good thing to think about it. At least I can see my daughter before I die.

She raised her thin hand and tremblingly touched Wang Shuhui's face.

"I'm sorry for you. If I hadn't asked you to run away from marriage, you wouldn't be wandering around without a home now."

"How are you, a girl, going to survive in this troubled time? Wuu ...

"It's all my mother's fault..."

Aunt Qin burst into tears as she spoke the last part of her story.

All the words that comforted me during the day were now disrupted, and my worries about my daughter suddenly flooded into my heart.

It was like a flood breaking through a solid floodgate, rushing and surging everywhere in the river channel.

She cried so hard that she was out of breath, which made Wang Shuhui also burst into tears.
