I thought Chen Zhier would calm down after being scolded by her.

But Shen Rong underestimated the other person's shamelessness.

The next day, Xiao Chen brought Chen Zhier to pay respects to the old lady.

"Why are you here again? Aren't you sick? If you are sick, just stay in the yard and recuperate, and don't bother yourself so much!" The old lady was impatient to deal with little Chen, and her words were not very polite.

This is what Mrs. Chen is like. If you give her some good colors, she will open a dyeing room directly.

Therefore, the old lady was extremely rude when she spoke.

Little Chen had been disliked by her mother-in-law for more than a day or two. She didn't care about her mother-in-law's expression. She pulled her niece in front of the old lady and said, "Mother, what's the situation with Brother Ming's daughter-in-law? You know, our mansion has finally gotten back on its feet. This banquet is the first time in the past few years that we have held such an important banquet. Are you confident in handing it over to a village girl?

I think, for such a big matter, you have to take action.

If you feel too tired or mentally exhausted, you still have my niece!

My niece has been following my sister-in-law in charge of the household since she was young. How about letting this girl help you at this banquet?"

Nanny Hua, who was standing behind the old lady, rolled her eyes almost to the top of her head when she heard little Chen's nonsense.

The old lady raised her eyelids and laughed angrily when she saw that Xiao Chen seemed to be thinking about her.

"What's wrong with a country girl? After all, she is a first-rank lady conferred by His Majesty himself. If you also have a first-rank title, I'll leave this banquet to you!" The old lady knew little Chen's weakness.

Although Gong Shaoyun was not a playboy, he relied on the glory of his ancestors to become a first-rank marquis in this life.

Also, due to his limited abilities, he was only a marquis without any real power throughout his life. He also did not earn an imperial decree for Xiao Chen.

Therefore, after Gong Shaoyun passed away, no matter who took the position of Marquis, for Xiao Chen, she was no longer the Marquis's wife.

Having been a marquis's wife for half her life, Xiao Chen naturally felt very upset when the glory suddenly no longer belonged to her.

At this moment, her mother-in-law pointed it out again, and Xiao Chen was so angry that her back teeth were almost broken.

"Since the mother-in-law looks down on her so much, I will just leave." Little Chen said stiffly and pulled Chen Zhi out of Minghui Courtyard.

Qiuxia soon found out the news about Minghuiyuan.

Shen Rong waved her hand after hearing this, "Don't worry about it, the old lady won't listen to her nonsense."

Now that she has money, the servants in the mansion all listen to her. No matter how confused the old lady is, she will not teach this to outsiders.

Therefore, Shen Rong was not worried at all.

At night, Shen Rong told Changsheng: "If you are at home, remember to stay away from your cousin who has nothing to do with you!"

Changsheng scratched his head, "What's wrong with her?"

Shen Rong rolled her eyes at Changsheng and said, "Just remember it."

After saying that, she no longer looked at Changsheng, but sat aside and began to practice the Changqing Jue given to her by her master.

Shen Rong practiced the Changqing Jue for a long time, but she didn't achieve anything.

Before going to bed every day, Shen Rong would sit quietly on the ground, following the formula taught by her master. She would sit like this for several months. Although she had not yet mastered the art, she always listened to her master and would set aside some time every day to practice the Changqing Formula.

.........

"Where the hell have you gone, you rotten-hearted little bitch?

Hen that doesn't lay eggs, come back to life!"

In the Gu family's courtyard, Qu Lian sat on the porch with a smile on her face, listening to Liu's cursing in the main room.

Three months ago, after Gu Zhaoming and Chen Yuan had a fight, Chen Yuan got so angry that he scratched Gu Zhaoming's face.

After seeing this, Liu was heartbroken and from that day on, she cursed Chen Yuan every day.

Not only that, she also asked Chen Yuan to serve her every day.

If Chen Yuan didn't agree, she would run to the neighbor's house and cry about her daughter-in-law being unfilial.

Since then, every time Chen Yuan went out, people would point and talk about her, but when she got closer, she could hear nothing. This feeling made people extremely uncomfortable.

But Gu Zhaoming would never speak for her again. Not only that, he left her to deal with Liu alone.

Therefore, Chen Yuan had to deal with Liu. In short, she had a very painful time during this period.

One day, Liu complained that she had a stiff neck and asked Chen Yuan to massage her neck.

Chen Yuan ignored her. Seeing this, Liu was so angry that her face turned pale and she started cursing.

Qu Lian felt very relieved after hearing this. She sat for a while, and when she saw that Liu had almost finished scolding, she stood up and took a pot of water into the main room.

"Madam, are you thirsty? Drink some water to moisten your throat first." Qu Lian came to Liu with some water.

"Well, it's rare that you still remember me." Liu took the cup from Qu Lian's hand and drank up all the tea in it.

Qu Lian'er rolled her eyes and said, "Madam, no matter what, Madam is the daughter of the Yiyong Marquis's Mansion. We can't offend her like this again, or else it will be difficult for your husband."

After hearing what Qu Lian said, Liu became even angrier.

"So what if that bitch is the daughter of Marquis Yiyong? I am still her mother-in-law! It is only natural for a mother-in-law to make her daughter-in-law observe the rules." Liu insisted.

Qu Lian raised the corner of her mouth slightly and praised: "What the old lady said makes sense."

In the main room, with Qu Lian's careful flattery, the room gradually quieted down.

Chen Yuan sat on the couch in the east wing, staring out the window, letting his thoughts drift.

Ever since she grabbed Gu Zhaoming's face, Liu has treated her almost like an enemy.

Gu Zhaoming just watched coldly, and Chen Yuan finally saw through Gu Zhaoming's true face.

Chen Yuan felt hatred and regret.

She must return all the suffering she had endured during these days to Liu.

But how to pay it back?

Chen Yuan fell into deep thought.

Before Chen Yuan could think clearly, the voices of Liu and Gu Zhaoming complaining were heard outside.

After a while, footsteps were heard outside the east wing.

With a "creak..." sound, the door was pushed open and golden sunlight jumped in from the gap.

"Did you quarrel with your mother again today?" Gu Zhaoming frowned and said impatiently.

"I didn't leave the east wing today, so how could I provoke your mother?" Chen Yuan looked at Gu Zhaoming coldly.

Gu Zhaoming was a little short of breath, "Anyway, it's you who made mother unhappy."

Chen Yuan sneered, "Since your mother dislikes me so much, let's get divorced!"

She is not a woman born and raised in a feudal society, she will never hang herself under a tree!

Gu Zhaoming was stunned. He didn't expect Chen Yuan to bring up the idea of ​​divorce at this time. "What nonsense are you talking about?"

Chen Yuan snorted coldly and said, "You know best whether I am talking nonsense or not. If you don't like me, you should just divorce me!"

The more Chen Yuan thought about it, the more he felt that divorce was a feasible option.

She is still young now, and her parents' family is the Yiyong Marquis's Mansion, so it is not impossible for her to marry into a wealthy and powerful family.

In this way, she won't be any different when she meets Shen Rong in the future.

The more Chen Yuan thought about it, the more he felt that this method was feasible.

She really sees through Gu Zhaoming.

Not to mention that he still has more than ten years to reach a high position, just based on his current attitude towards her, I'm afraid that when that time comes, she won't be able to take any advantage of him.

The investment and return are not proportional, so you must stop the loss as soon as possible.

But how could Gu Zhaoming be willing to divorce?

He is now just a minor official of the sixth rank. Without the Chen family, he will be nothing and may remain in the sixth rank position for the rest of his life.

Therefore, divorce is absolutely not allowed!

Chen Yuan looked at Gu Zhaoming's face and knew what he was thinking.

For a moment, the room fell silent.

Gu Zhaoming's expression eased and he said softly, "My dear, please don't mention this again in the future. Let's live a good life together. One day, I will earn the glory you want for you."

Chen Yuan thought to himself, if that day really comes, your mother will still be standing in front, how can it be my turn?

Chen Yuan was too lazy to act with Gu Zhaoming. "My husband, your skill in painting cakes is so superb. It would be a pity if you don't do the painting well."

Gu Zhaoming was stunned for a moment. It took him a while to realize what Chen Yuan meant and he immediately laughed out of anger.

He stepped forward and hugged Chen Yuan, who was sitting on the couch, "My wife, you are so naughty. Don't you know best how capable your husband is?"

Chen Yuan remained unmoved and raised her hand to push Gu Zhaoming's arm off her shoulder.

Unfortunately, there was a huge difference in strength between men and women. She pushed, but the other person's arm didn't move at all.

"Let me go and don't touch me with your dirty hands!" Chen Yuan scolded.

Gu Zhaoming looked at Chen Yuan coldly. "What did you say?"

Chen Yuan met his gaze and said coldly: "You have touched other women and your body is dirty, don't touch me!"

Ever since Gu Zhaoming and Qu Lian got together, Chen Yuan felt uncomfortable every time he saw Gu Zhaoming.

Therefore, she did not force the other party to rest in her room.

Now, whenever Gu Zhaoming approached her, Chen Yuan felt extremely uncomfortable.

Gu Zhaoming's forehead veins bulged, and he clenched his fists tightly. "You despise me for being dirty, and you don't want me to touch you. Today I will touch you and make you as dirty as me!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Zhaoming tore off Chen Yuan's clothes without waiting for Chen Yuan to react.

Not only did Chen Yuan not hide, he straightened his upper body, raised his hand and gave Gu Zhaoming a loud slap.

Gu Zhaoming's head was knocked sideways. He wiped the corner of his mouth with his thumb and sneered, "My lady, have you not eaten? How can you be so weak?"

The first time he was beaten by Chen Yuan, Gu Zhaoming only felt that he was insulted, but after the second and third times, he no longer had that feeling, and he even got used to being slapped by Chen Yuan.

When Chen Yuan heard what Gu Zhaoming said, he felt unbelievable.

If Gu Zhaoming still looked humiliated like before after being beaten by her this time, she would only feel particularly relieved.

But at this time, not only was Gu Zhaoming's reaction different from before, but it was also a bit mean, which made Chen Yuan feel a little at a loss.

This... the good male protagonist seems to have turned into a pervert... what should I do?
