Nanny Hua knew that Chen would not leave the Marquis' Mansion so easily, so she took out a folded piece of paper from her sleeve.

She handed the piece of paper to Shen Rong.

Shen Rong took the paper and opened it, her expression relaxed a little.

Chen had been keeping an eye on Shen Rong. When she saw that her expression relaxed a lot after she read what was written on the paper, she had a bad feeling.

Before Chen could say anything, Shen Rong raised the written side to Chen and said, "If Madam doesn't want to go to the ancestral temple to pray, why don't you go back to your parents' home?

The old lady was worried about the old lady, so she left a divorce letter so that the old lady could have a new home in the future. "

When Chen saw the handwriting on it, her face turned pale. She was a little incredulous and reached out to grab the paper, intending to take it away and destroy it.

How could Shen Rong let such an important thing be snatched away? She quickly put the thing away.

"Madam, please choose for yourself!" Shen Rong said seriously.

She never thought that the old lady would have kept this trick before she died. Shen Rong felt somewhat touched.

Shen Rong originally planned to take her two children back to the Shen family after the funeral of the old lady was completely completed. In this way, she would not have to face Chen, her stepmother.

And now, Shen Rong was extremely happy to be able to drive Chen out of the Marquis' Mansion.

The lady was so thoughtful that Shen Rong couldn't help but miss her.

Aunt Hua was worried that Chen still didn't believe it, so she echoed, "Old Madam, you recognize the handwriting of the Madam. It was written by the master herself before she died. Lingzhi and I saw it with our own eyes. It can't be fake. Please obey the Madam's will."

Chen's face turned pale and she staggered back two steps.

She didn't want to go to the ancestral temple to pray for blessings, and she didn't want to be divorced and sent back to her parents' home.

Going to the ancestral temple, life is hard and miserable. Going back to her parents' home, now that she is old, she was divorced and sent back to her parents' home. What kind of life is waiting for her?

It's good enough that her brother, sister-in-law, nephews and nieces-in-law don't

Mother-in-law, her good mother-in-law, how could you be so cruel? You didn't even give her a chance to live?

Chen's eyes gradually turned red.

Shen Rong gave Chun Xing and Aunt Hua a look and said, "Aunt Hua, take a few people to help the old lady pack up her things! Today is the seventh day after her death, so it's a good time to ask the old lady to go to the old lady's spirit tablet and chant some sutras."

The two took the order and left.

Chen was anxious and shouted, "Stop! Stop right there!"

Unfortunately, in the Pingyang Marquis Mansion, all the servants only listen to Shen Rong. After all, their monthly wages are paid by Shen Rong, so naturally they listen to her.

As for Chen, although she was a master, she had no money and no power. The other servants knew who to listen to easily.

Chen watched the servants leave, her face becoming paler and paler. She didn't bother to find fault with Shen Rong and ran to the yard where she lived.

Shen Rong didn't stop him.

Pingping and Anan stood beside Shen Rong, without asking anything, just hugging Shen Rong's legs tightly.

Soon, Butler Gong learned the news and arranged a carriage to help load Chen's things onto the carriage.

Chen was reluctant to get on the carriage, but was finally carried into the carriage by the maid in the mansion.

When the driver saw that all the people and belongings had been loaded onto the carriage, he hurriedly drove the carriage towards the Gong family.

After Chen left, only the siblings Shen Rong, Pingping and Aliang were left in the mansion. For a moment, the mansion seemed exceptionally quiet.

Shen Rong thought about it and asked Jiafu to take people to trim the vines on the courtyard wall, which would help them to sprout branches in the spring.

Shen Rong had a simple idea: as long as the wall of her home was covered with thorns, ordinary people would not be able to climb over it.

When Shen Rong thought of this, she felt safe.

However, there were indeed too few masters in the mansion. Shen Rong thought about it and went to persuade the Shen family's grandparents to move into the Marquis' Mansion.

Sixth Grandpa and Sixth Grandma refused to move in no matter what.

"No, we can't move in!" Sixth Grandpa shook his head like a rattle.

Sixth Grandma also agreed with Sixth Grandpa's choice, "Yes, Sanniang, your grandfather and I are surnamed Shen after all, and Pingyang Marquis's surname is Gong after all. It would be unreasonable for us two old guys to move there."

Shen Rong thought about it and continued to persuade, "Grandma, I am taking care of two children by myself now. I don't feel comfortable letting the servants take care of the children alone. You can just help me look after the children. Do you think this is okay?"

After this was said, what else could the two old men say?

While Changsheng is away, they have to take good care of his children and wife.

Sixth Grandma and Sixth Grandpa looked at each other, and they both saw what the other meant from each other's eyes.

"Sanniang, we can move there, but we will go back home after the children follow the majority." Sixth Grandpa said after thinking for a while.

Shen Rong knew that this was the last insistence of the two old people, so she agreed.

With the end of the lady's funeral, the New Year was almost over, and in the blink of an eye it was early February.

There were more and more banquets in the capital city again, but none of this had anything to do with Shen Rong.

Shen Rong is in mourning for the old lady this time. Since she and Changsheng are her grandchildren, they will observe mourning for one year.

During this year, Shen Rong could not attend any banquets.

Fortunately, Shen Rong has always been like this, so there is nothing she is not used to.

Shen Rong now only hopes that Wang Qing can come back from the south as soon as possible, and bring Changsheng back with him. As for other things, Shen Rong doesn't care about them.

She was looking forward to it to the fullest.

Unfortunately, most of February has passed, and Shen Rong still has not received any news about Changsheng.

What is Wang Qing, who is being missed by Shen Rong, doing at this time?

He went through untold hardships to reach the place where Changsheng had suppressed the bandits, and found a hunter's house to inquire for news.

The hunter was an old hunter who was born and raised in the local area. He didn't want to become a bandit at first, so he had to thank the lady and her group of bandits for doing things in the mountains.

Hunters usually have no fixed place to live, make a living by hunting, and are extremely cautious when moving in the mountains.

Only after the bandits in this area of ​​the mountain were wiped out did he settle down in a cave.

The road where Changsheng had the accident, the place where he was hunting was very close to the place where Changsheng was fighting with the bandits.

Two men were fighting on the cliff, and a hunter happened to pass by below the cliff.

Who knew that before he got over, two people fell from above, one above and one below, and fell into the pool one after another.

The hunter pulled one up, but couldn't find the other one. He thought that the bandits were right above him and might chase them down to check.

The hunter saw that the man he had pulled out of the water was still breathing, so he took the man away from the bottom of the cliff.

However, the man was seriously injured and had fallen from such a high place. He had just brought him to his temporary residence when the man died.

Finally, the hunter dug a hole, rolled up a tattered straw mat, and buried the man.
