Chapter 218 The General's Ex-wife Will Not Remarry 12

An Mei panicked and quickly explained, "Master, you know that Caixue's mother and I are like sisters. I have always treated Caixue as my own daughter. How could I possibly harm her?"

"Besides, Yazhi is a virtuous person, how could she be drugged?"

She looked at Zhou Caixue and said with disappointment, "Caixue, I think I have treated you well. I have always given you whatever you wanted. I never thought you would confuse right and wrong and slander me like this!"

"You have caused a disaster and ruined your own marriage, and you want to make sure your sister can't marry into a good family?"

An Mei started crying as she spoke, her eyes watering and her heart broken.

"Master, you must make the decision for me!"

"I loved Caixue in every way before, and I ran around for her wedding without any selfish motives."

"The only time I had selfish motives was after she caused that scandal. I was worried that it would affect Yazhi, so I had to persuade you to let Caixue suffer a little for a while and marry in a low-key manner."

"But I didn't expect that she would defame me like this just because of such a small matter!"

She held the embroidered handkerchief, wiping her tears with one hand and beating her chest with the other.

"I've known for a long time that being a stepmother is not easy, but I didn't expect that she would be such an ungrateful person."

Zhou Yongrong saw that his wife was crying so sadly and it didn't seem like she was pretending. What's more, every word she said made sense.

He saw how she doted on her eldest daughter over the years, and she was not even that nice to her youngest daughter!

He glared at his eldest daughter.

"Don't you know how the lady treats you?"

"You are not obedient and have to marry a useless hunter. It is your own fault. How dare you blame others and put the blame on your stepmother who has always loved you so much?"

"Not only that, what did your sister do wrong that you want to drag her down with you?"

"You disappoint me so much!"

Zhou Caixue watched their performance with indifference.

"Dad, do you think I don't know what you are thinking?"

"No matter what the truth is, in order to protect the reputation of your remaining daughter, you will not pursue the matter, and you will not seek justice for a discarded child like me who has completely lost his usefulness."

Zhou Yongrong suddenly stood up and walked to Zhou Caixue, raising his hand to slap her.

Jiang Xubai, who had been silent, grabbed his hand.

"Father-in-law, respect yourself!"

Zhou Yongrong laughed out of anger.

"You are a country boy, and you want to interfere in our family affairs?"

"I think you are impatient!"

"Somebody come!"

"Beat him! Beat him to death!"

Jiang Xubai's eyes were cold.

"You want to use force on me?"

Zhou Yongrong sneered, "If you hadn't been trying to climb up the social ladder, my daughter wouldn't have been defiled by a lowly person like you!"

"I'm telling you, don't even think about getting a single cent from our Zhou family!"

"Water thrown away by a married daughter!"

"From now on, whether she lives or dies has nothing to do with our Zhou family!"

"Even if she goes to the streets to beg for food, I won't give her a penny!"

Zhou Caixue's eyes suddenly turned red and tears flowed uncontrollably.

Although she had expected that her father did not treat her as his daughter at all, the dream was just a dream after all. She knew everything in the dream, but it did not feel real.

It was not until this moment that she truly felt that her father really did not love her.

In the past, she was young and beautiful, and there were almost countless suitors knocking on her door. He wanted her to marry into a wealthy family so that she could support the Zhou family. Naturally, he was willing to continue to pamper her until she got married.

But now she has lost her usefulness and is worthless in his eyes.

It turned out that in the dream, he would sell her to Mr. Lu for one hundred taels of silver and squeeze out every last bit of her value, which would really happen.

Zhou Caixue wiped away her tears, and all the hope in her eyes disappeared.

"Master Zhou, have you forgotten that the reason why the Zhou family is what it is today is all thanks to my mother!"

"When are you going to return the dowry my mother left me?"

"Also, this house was left to me by my mother. How long are you going to occupy it?"

Zhou Yongrong felt guilty for a moment, but was more angry and embarrassed.

"You are an unfaithful woman, and you still want me to give you a dowry?"

"Don't think about it!"

"Get out, get out of my house, we're breaking off relations now!"

Zhou Caixue smiled.

"You can break off the relationship, but you'd better return everything my mother left me."

"Otherwise, don't blame me for going to the government office to file a complaint!"

"If I remember correctly, my mother left a list at the government office. On that list, the dowry and property left for me were clearly written."

"If you don't mind being embarrassed, you can sue me in court!"

After she finished speaking, she turned around, took Jiang Xubai's arm and walked out.

After taking two steps, he said to Jiang Xubai, "Since I have severed my relationship with the Zhou family, I cannot let them get these gifts for free."

"Husband, let's sell the prey."

Jiang Xubai nodded, bent down and put the wild boar back on his shoulders.

"Let's go."

Zhou Yongrong was so angry that his chest hurt.

"Rebellious girl!"

"If I had known you were such a disaster, I should have pushed you into a bucket of feces and drowned you when you were just born!"

Zhou Caixue paused slightly, then walked away more resolutely.

After leaving Zhou's house, Jiang Xubai said, "Wild boars need to be killed before they can be sold. I'll go to the slaughterhouse first and ask someone to help me kill them."

"It's almost noon now, please find a place to sit down and eat."

Zhou Caixue shook her head.

"no appetite."

"I will go with you."

Jiang Xubai did not refuse and silently took her to the slaughterhouse.

The pig slaughterhouse in the town is actually just a piece of open space with a special place for slaughtering pigs and a butcher.

The butcher killed the pig for them skillfully and charged them a hundred coins for his labor.

Jiang Xubai carried the pork to the market to buy it.

In order to sell out quickly, Jiang Xubai did not mark a high price, but bought it at fifty cents per pound.

Under normal circumstances, if pork is delivered to a restaurant or sold on market days, it can be sold at a price of fifty-one to fifty-five yuan per catty.

Wild boar meat is easy to sell and the price is affordable, so nearly 200 kilograms of pork were sold out in less than an hour.

The remaining few hares were also sold.

Zhou Caixue asked, "How much money did you make?"

Jiang Xubai said, "Some people bargained for the price. Sometimes I met people who often bought game from me, and I gave them some. I also sold the pig offal at a low price. Together with the pheasants and rabbits, I made exactly ten taels of silver."

Zhou Caixue was stunned for a moment.

"so much?"

"Is this how you make money from hunting?"

"Then where did the money you earned over the years go? How come you only have over 60 taels of silver in your savings?"

It was obvious that he could earn ten taels of silver a day!

Jiang Xubai said, "It's not every day that we can hunt deer and wild boars so well. These two days we were lucky."

"Besides, I would give half of the money I earned to my family."

Zhou Caixue raised her eyebrows slightly, and was very good at raising her own value.

"You didn't have such good luck before I married you."

Jiang Xubai laughed and said, "Yes, it's because you married me that my luck has improved. You are a lucky charm for your husband."
