Fortunate Wife

"There is no such thing." Shen Runsheng took a deep breath, looked at Li Xiangcao, and said seriously, "Don't say that there was no betrothal gift back then, even if there was, I would never ask for it back."

Li Xiangcao didn't know whether to believe him or not, but now that Li Mo and the others were taken away by the yamen, she had to find a way to stay.

"Okay, it's you who said it. You didn't owe any money, and you didn't ask for a betrothal gift. Then, you come with me to the yamen now."

"What?" Shen Runsheng was taken aback for a moment, he is a scholar, what is he going to the Yamen for if he has nothing to do? That would have an impact on his reputation.

Li Xiangcao stared at him closely and said, "Li Mo and Li Yan were taken away by the yamen, and it was Qian San who sued him. Didn't you say that this matter has nothing to do with you? Then you go to the yamen with me to clarify. As long as you say that there is no such thing as owing money or asking for a bride price, then this matter becomes blackmail by Qian Sany."

Shen Runsheng paused, quickly weighing the pros and cons in his mind, and couldn't help looking at Qian Cui'er who wanted to turn into air again. From her dodging look, he could almost conclude that even if he didn't borrow the three hundred taels of silver himself, it must be with him. This bitch can't get away with it.

"What? Don't you dare? Or is this what you did at all?" Li Xiangcao stared at him contemptuously, his eyes were like knives, which made Shen Runsheng feel very uncomfortable.

Once upon a time, he almost became the god in her heart. In her eyes, everything he did was right. Now, she looks at him with such contemptuous eyes?

Shen Runsheng was a little angry, "Go and go, whether I did this matter or not, you will have your own conclusion when you arrive at the Yamen."

"Master, don't go." Qian Cui'er quickly got up and grabbed Shen Runshengfan.

The three hundred taels of silver was just what she and Qian Sanliang teamed up to blackmail the Li family.

The Li family's clothing store is in the town, and she has visited it a few times. The clothes in it are all beautiful, and the business is booming. She has asked someone to calculate, and the daily account of the Li family is at least a hundred taels. , Hmph, it shouldn't be too difficult to blackmail them a few hundred silver.

But who would have thought that Qian San would be beaten back as soon as he went out, so Qian Cui'er made another plan and sent him to use some money to find a good friend in the county government, and then put the Li family in prison. When someone is arrested, those members of the Li family, who have never seen the world, are assigned to rescue people first, and then they won't be allowed to be rounded and flattened by then? Not to mention a few hundred silver, even if the store asked them to let them out, I'm afraid they would be willing.

And Li Xiangcao came here in a hurry, which can be regarded as telling Qian Cuier a good news, that is, the Li family is really in a hurry, she thought, just wait patiently, maybe tomorrow, the Li family will not be able to hold back Take the money and go to the county government to manage it.

The two yamen servants in the county government office are her old acquaintances, and the more they cheat, the more they will be divided, hmph, the Li family must be squeezed dry.

A woman like Li Xiangcao, she and their family deserve to be poor.

Hearing that the Li family was rich, that Li Xiangcao married another man, and had a spectacular wedding, Qian Cui'er was unhappy, very unhappy.

Why can't she be righted after she gave birth to Shen Runsheng's son? How could Li Xiangcao occupy Shen Runsheng's heart after being divorced?

Hmph, if she is not doing well, no one else should think about it.

Facing Qian Cui'er's pleading, Shen Runsheng coldly shook off, "You better have nothing to do with this matter, otherwise, three hundred taels of silver? You are going to find someone to sell yourself to pay back the money."

"Master, don't go, it's not what you think, listen to me first." Qian Cuier kept dragging him, and he dragged him directly to the door, she really wanted to explain that this was just a trick for her to collect money However, the current situation cannot be explained to him, "Master, you go back to the room with me, and I will explain it to you."

"What's there to explain? Did you and that bastard do this together?" Shen Runsheng asked with red eyes.

Qian Cui'er curled her lips, and said angrily, "What bastard, that's my cousin, and what I do, it's for your own good, for..."

"Sure enough, you did it." Pa, Shen Runsheng slapped her angrily again, with an angry expression on his face, "I warned you a long time ago, you are not allowed to have any more dealings with that bastard, but you didn't listen, and you went to him again." Get it together."

"You hit me? You hit me again?" Qian Cui'er's hair was disheveled and she looked hysterical. Tonight, she was beaten first by Li Xiangcao and then by Shen Runsheng. She really had enough.

"Shen Runsheng, you bastard, what use are you for besides beating me? I used to think you were a scholar, pointing at you to read books to help the family, but what about you, besides planting flowers, planting grass and amusing birds all day long, you What else? Outside, drinking and socializing with people all day, you still think your Shen family is the Shen family of the past? Don’t think about it, where did the money come from at home? You sold everything in your parents’ house It's all over. Our Bao'er is only so old, who do you want him to rely on in the future? Rely on you, our mother and I have already drank the northwest wind."

"You bitch, no matter how poor my Shen family is, I'm short of your food and drink? Do you want you to extort people's money?" Shen Runsheng became even more furious, and was about to kick her.

But Zhang Ben stepped forward to stop him, "Enough, your husband and wife are going to fight, and there will be plenty of time in the future, now, come with us to the Yamen."

The longer things dragged on, the more he was afraid that Li Mo and Li Yan would suffer more.

Li Xiangcao also said, "Let's go, we don't have time to spend with you."

As she said that, she glanced at Shen Runsheng. She hadn't seen him for more than half a year. This man was thinner, and he seemed to be a lot older, with protruding cheekbones. It's even hotter.

Once, they also quarreled, but they never saw him

Live like this, and even do it without saying a few words.

Seeing Qian Cuier sitting on the ground crying, Li Xiangcao sighed in her heart, for herself and Qian Cuier.

For her, whether Shen Runsheng is good or bad now has nothing to do with her.

Yu Qian Cui'er deliberately squeezed her original partner away, but she didn't get what she wanted, which was fate.

Ignoring Qian Cui'er any more, the three of them walked out together, and as soon as they reached the door, they ran into the yamen servant who was about to come to pick him up.

"Excuse me, is this Qian Cui'er's house?" the yamen servant asked when he saw the three of them coming out of the yard.

Shen Runsheng paused, and quickly asked, "What are you looking for from her?"

"If it is, ask her to come out." It was probably late at night and he was sent out to handle errands, the tone of the yamen servant was not very good, a little aggressive.

In the yard, Qian Cui'er also heard her being called, but because she had acquaintances in the yamen, she wasn't too afraid, and just thought that Qian San had something to ask her to come forward, so she got up and walked over by herself up.

"It's me." Qian Cui'er recognized the bearded man among them at a glance, and said with a smile, "Hey, isn't this Brother Hu? Why are you here so late?"

"You think I'm here to play with you? Hurry up, the county magistrate is still waiting in the hall. This case will not be closed tonight. No one will be safe." Hu Yamen glanced at Qian impatiently Tweety, seeing her in a daze, came over and stretched out her hand to grab her.

Qian Cui'er staggered from being pushed and almost fell, so she panicked, "Brother Hu, what did you say? What is the case?"

"What case, go to court and talk to the county magistrate, I don't care, just go." Hu Yamen pushed her forward very rudely.

Li Xiangcao and the others were also stunned, and when they came back to their senses, these people had already left the alley.

They hurriedly chased after them.

"Officer." Zhang Ben stopped them and hurriedly asked, "May I ask if you are handling the case of Qian San and the Li family?"

"You are?" Hu Yamen servant looked Zhang Ben up and down.

Zhang Ben hurriedly said, "The two people arrested today, one named Li Mo and the other named Li Yan, are my, um, nephews."

"Nephew?" Yamen Hu looked at him suspiciously.

Zhang Ben could only explain, "I am their little uncle."

"Oh." The servant Hu nodded, and Qian Cui'er and Shen Runsheng beside him were stunned.

So far, they have only seen Zhang Ben, but never thought about his identity. At most, they thought he was some kind of relative of the Li family, or someone who was acquainted with the Li family, who helped Li Xiangcao come here to do business, because , he looks really young, in his early twenties at most.

But Li Xiangcao, although she was born with a water spirit, is almost thirty after all, and she is a woman who has returned home.

They only heard that she was married again, but they never heard that she would marry such a young man.

Qian Cuier's eyes were full of jealousy, and Shen Runsheng's eyes turned red with anger, "Vanilla, is he the man you married?"

"It's none of your business. You just go to the yamen with me and explain clearly. From now on, I won't come here to make things difficult for you again." Li Xiangcao said coldly.

But what Shen Runsheng wanted to hear was not these. He looked at Zhang Ben angrily, and at this man who was younger than himself, stronger and taller than himself, he couldn't help but sneered, "Hmph, no wonder you were so determined to divorce me at the beginning. , so I already have a concubine."

"Shen Runsheng, shut your dirty mouth." Zhang Ben said angrily, "I and Vanilla are after you reconciled. Also, before talking about people, first ask yourself what nasty things you have done with other people. This woman has a child, and you brought her home, and you ganged up to bully Vanilla, treating her like a cow or a horse, didn't you do all of this?"

"Zhang Ben, we can't talk to him about you and me." Li Xiangcao stopped Zhang Ben. She didn't want to talk about the past, no matter who was right or wrong. She already had a new life and would move on. Look.

"Vanilla, I really misjudged you." Shen Runsheng said very sadly, "I thought you were a good person, I always thought so, even, I think reconciliation is just your impulsive decision. I have been waiting , waiting for you to come back on the day of reflection. Do you know? In my heart, the mistress of the Shen family, the woman of my Shen Runsheng, has always been you. Tweety, yes, she gave birth to a son for me. And the Shen family also I really need a son. But if you can't give birth, what do you want me to do? I can't let the Shen family die."

"That's enough. I don't want to hear these words anymore. The relationship between you and me has already been broken." Li Xiangcao cut him off decisively.

Shen Runsheng was unwilling, and shouted at her, "Xiangcao, do you know? I have been waiting for you to come back to me. I also want to entrust this child to you to raise."

Li Xiangcao was shocked, but Qian Cui'er was about to go crazy when she heard the words. She rushed over and grabbed Shen Runsheng's face.

"You murderer, how dare you play with me? No wonder you never straightened me up, and you lied to me all day long, saying that I came from a humble background, and the Shen family disagreed? Pooh, it turns out that you are black-hearted and rotten." Yes, with such thoughts? Why should my child be raised by that woman? "

Shen Runsheng was also full of anger, and when he had nothing to vent, he and Qian Cui'er started fighting.

Hu Yamen servant and another yamen servant were furious. They came to arrest people, not to mediate between husband and wife.

One person tore one apart and shouted, "That's enough, you guys are going to be beaten, and you will be beaten in the lobby later, when you will be beaten."

"No, sir. It has something to do with me.

what relationship? I'm going to testify for someone. "Shen Runsheng said hurriedly.

Qian Cui'er also quickly excused herself, "Brother Hu, what Qian San did has nothing to do with me."

"All right, all right, we can't talk about this." The two yamen servants were anxious to get people, regardless of their arguments.

Shen Runsheng became anxious, and turned to look at Li Xiangcao.

Li Xiangcao and Zhang Ben also hurriedly followed, it seemed that the county magistrate was handling Li Mo's case.

However, when the servant Hu saw the two of them following, he said, "It's none of your business, what are you doing?"

"My lord, our family is still locked up in the county government." Zhang Ben said.

When the servant Hu heard this, he hurriedly said, "I almost forgot, you go back, your family has already released you."

"Release?" Zhang Ben and Li Xiangcao looked at each other in disbelief.

The servant Hu explained kindly, "It was really released. The man was taken away by Mr. Jing of the Zhang family himself. If you are looking for someone, why don't you go to the Zhang family first."

"The Zhang family?" Li Xiangcao felt compelled when she heard it, and quickly thanked her, "Thank you, sir."

"You're welcome." Yamen Hu waved his hands again and again, just wondering how an ordinary family like the Li family could have such a good relationship with the Zhang family, and even at night, Master Jing of the Zhang family went to the yamen in person.

This is so unusual.
