Jin Wang Dotes on His Concubine

The Concubine in the Palace_The Feast of Masks【Complete】(231)

He saw the door of the main room closing in front of his eyes, and there was no movement inside.

Zhu was panicking, but when she looked back at the couple, she was unwilling to show weakness: "You wait for Su Yucheng. When dad comes back, I will definitely tell dad about this and ask him to make the decision."

After saying these words, she hid back in the east chamber and bolted the door from the inside.

After losing his temper, Su Yucheng was exhausted both physically and mentally.

He was a little embarrassed, and smiled helplessly at Lan Cao: "I'm sorry, I hurt you again. Just now, don't think too much about what I said just now. I was also angry for a moment, so I took it out on you. I want to stop. She has nothing to do with you..." At the end of his words, he couldn't continue. He hurriedly said, "Don't think too much about it," and went to the west wing where no one lived.

Lan Cao looked at his back and didn't know what he was thinking.

Chapter 176

Mrs. Zhu said so, probably because she knew in her heart that Su Yucheng was serious and never came out of the east chamber.

Su Yucheng was indeed serious. After Su Xiucai and Yao Chengdu came back, he personally invited them to a place and mentioned that he wanted to divorce his wife.

In fact, Su Yucheng didn't need to invite him, Yao Cheng and Huiniang already knew about it.

The commotion in the Su family was so fierce that Li from the Yao family next door wanted to put up a ladder to have a look, so Yao Cheng and Huiniang were listening to a live broadcast.

"If you really plan to divorce her, what will Brother Dong and the others do?" Huiniang is a woman after all. She knows that after a woman in this world is divorced, her life will be very difficult, so she can't help but give her some advice.

"Ever since Brother Dong was born, she has never taken care of her except for breastfeeding. When the younger sister is at home, she takes care of the child. When the younger sister is not at home, she always blames her mother. As long as she can fulfill her duties as a wife and mother. Well, I won’t even think about it today.”

"Isn't it because of Lan Cao?"

Su Yucheng was startled for a moment, and then said with a smile: "Huiniang, why are you even thinking about that? I was just out of anger and blurted out something to make her angry. Your eldest brother has no ability and will not ruin a good girl. "

Huiniang wanted to say something more, but was interrupted by Yao Cheng: "Since the eldest brother has decided to pay attention, just let it go. I am not a sister-in-law who talks too much. The eldest, Mr. Zhu is really not a good person. Leave it at home. It’s the root of the family’s misfortune. Brother Dong is still young now, so when he grows up, he will be influenced by her.”

Now that the words were said like this, Wu just wiped away his tears and said he had committed sin, but could not say anything about Chou Yinmao. Only Su Xiucai had not expressed his stance. It was his attitude that was the most important.

"father."

Su Xiucai looked at Su Yucheng. Although he left early and came back late, and rarely talked to his children when he was free, he also noticed Su Yucheng's recent changes. Several times, Su Xiucai had the urge to burst into tears. His old Su family only had such a son, and he only had Su Yucheng, who was as popular as Su Yucheng. His son was useless, so he was more anxious than anyone else.

Now that his son has undergone earth-shaking changes, Su Xiucai feels very relieved. In fact, he had long disliked the Zhu family, but if his son didn't say anything, how could he be the father-in-law and take over his duties?

"You are not young anymore. Once you have made up your mind, just do it, but before you do it, you must think carefully."

"Dad, I understand." Su Yucheng nodded.

This was probably the biggest change in his life, and this decision was made by himself. Su Yucheng under the candlelight actually gave people a feeling of being reborn.

He stood up and said, "I'm going to write a letter of divorce, just to send her back to her hometown -" He looked at Yao Cheng with some hesitation, "I wonder if my sister-in-law has any good ideas?"

Yao Cheng pondered for a moment: "This matter is not difficult to handle. There are many horse and carriage shops in Beijing. They are not only responsible for delivering goods, but also giving them to people. As long as they can afford the money."

As for the money, the Su family has it. When they were leaving Prince Jin's Mansion, Yao Niang gave them all the money she had saved in the past few years, which totaled about forty or fifty taels, saying it was for them to settle down.

Su Yucheng nodded his thanks and went to write a letter of divorce.

Although he was unable to study, he had studied with Su Xiucai for several years when he was young. Writing a letter of divorce was not a big deal for him.

In fact, seriously speaking, a large part of the reason why Su Yucheng was idle and incompetent in literature and martial arts was because Su Xiucai had high hopes for him in his early years and forced him to study for many years. It was a pity that Su Yucheng could not be carved out of rotten wood. After trying several times and failing to pass the exam, Su Xiucai finally gave up. But Su Yucheng was already quite old at that time, and he missed the best opportunity to learn a trade. He could do some physical work, but Su Yucheng couldn't lift his shoulders, and Wu was distressed and nagging all day long, so he was confused. day.

After Su Yucheng wrote the letter of divorce, he went to the east chamber without delay.

When having dinner before, Mr. Zhu didn’t come out, so naturally no one called him. At this moment, when there was no one outside, Mrs. Zhu secretly went to the kitchen and filled a bowl of cold rice, which she wolfed down.

When she heard a knock on the door, she hurriedly hid the bowl and opened the door. Su Yucheng stood outside the door.

She curled her lips and sneered: "What are you doing? Even if you beg me this time, I won't forgive you."

It's a pity that she forgot to wipe her mouth while eating. The oily shine at the corner of her mouth made her look a little ridiculous in the light from the house.

Su Yucheng had an inexplicable feeling of sadness. He didn't know whether it was for himself or for the other party. He handed over the divorce letter in his hand: "This is the divorce letter. I will ask someone to send you back to your hometown. I told my father that I will get it from my sister." I will give you 20 taels of silver, which will be enough for you to live in your hometown for a few years. As for the future, I hope you will take care of yourself."

Hearing this, Zhu was stunned.

Her mouth remained open, and shock was written all over her face. She couldn't speak, and when she wanted to speak, she could only make a gurgling sound.

Su Yucheng couldn't bear to watch any longer, "You should rest early." After saying that, he turned and left.

"Su Yucheng..."

Zhu's crying, shouting and cursing lasted for a whole night, disturbing the neighbors.

It was not until the third watch that a family nearby couldn't stand it anymore and came to knock on the door of the Su family, saying that if she continued to make such a fuss, they would report to the police, and Zhu stopped making trouble.

The next day, Su Xiucai and Su Yucheng both went out with dark circles under their eyes. Lan Cao didn't dare to stay at the Su family, but went to the Yao family next door, because Zhu seemed to be crazy and wanted to beat her when she saw her.

After making trouble for two whole days, seeing that the Su family was unmoved, Zhu finally changed her tactics and began to act pitiful. But after the hysterical uproar two days ago, no one believed that she would repent, even Dong Ge'er and the other children avoided her.

The three children were not close to Zhu. Zhu not only ignored them, but sometimes Dong Ge'er and the other children cried and made a scene, and she would beat and scold them. How could the children get close to her? When Zhu called Dong Ge'er and the other two, Dong Ge'er was fine. He was sensible and just hid. The other two little ones cried for their grandmother and only hid in Wu's arms.

Yao Cheng found a carriage and horse shop and negotiated the price with them. Su Yucheng finally talked to Zhu.

Zhu probably knew that the situation could not be saved. Besides, she was the most proud. It was the extreme that she could make such a fuss. She did not try to beg again. She packed her things and planned to go back to her hometown.

In this way, Zhu left the Su family with a small bag.

This time, they would probably never see each other again in this life.

Su Yucheng had no way to get away. Yao Cheng personally sent Zhu to the carriage and horse shop. The money had been paid, and Yao Cheng had no extra words to say to Zhu. He just said hello and left.

Zhu sat on the stone steps with her bag in her arms, waiting. The people in the carriage and horse shop next to her were loading goods. For people like this who were taking people with them, they followed the caravan and were very safe on the road.

Zhu was full of grief and indignation at this time, and she was full of hatred for the Su family and even the Yao family.

She hated these people whose consciences had been eaten by dogs, so she would not reflect on herself. If she would reflect on herself, she and Su Yucheng would not have come to this day.

"Are you Mrs. Zhu from the Su family?" A black figure suddenly enveloped the light in front of Zhu.

"Who are you?"

"My master wants to ask Mrs. Zhu to talk about something."

As soon as King Jin walked out of the gate of the Ministry of Works, he saw a familiar face at the corner of the street not far away.

He did not look at it for long, and walked along the street. It was the time when the subordinates of each government were on duty, and the Qipan Street was very lively, with sedan chairs and horses flowing, and people coming and going.

Now, the Prince of Jin walking up and down duty can no longer attract anyone's attention. Even if they meet, the other party will just nod or bow. Everyone knows that although His Highness Prince of Jin seems a little cold, he is not a big-hearted person.

It was not until they left Qipan Street that the middle-aged man in a blue shirt hurriedly caught up with the Prince of Jin.

The Prince of Jin stopped and looked at the other party.

"Your Highness Prince of Jin, I don't know what you think about the matter raised by my master. It has been a long time, and you still don't have a definite answer, which makes my master very unhappy." The middle-aged man was tall and thin, with a long face, splayed eyebrows, and a pair of bright eyes, looking very fierce. If you are familiar with the various families and mansions in the capital, you will know that this person is Xu Ji, the deputy general manager of Xu Guogong's mansion.

Today, Xu Ji spoke very impolitely, and it was obvious that he had lost his patience. The person who lost his patience was naturally not the person in front of him, but Xu Guogong behind him.

In fact, it was beyond the expectation of the Prince of Jin that Xu Guogong could endure for so long. Before the end of last year, Duke Xu had mentioned to him that he wanted to divorce the Princess of Jin and help Xu Yueru take the throne. The Prince of Jin had been ignoring these people, but he didn't expect that they finally lost their patience and came to him.

"I thought I had made it very clear to you that it was His Majesty's will not abolish the Princess. If she were abolished, the position of my first wife would not be the daughter of your Xu family."

Xu Ji probably didn't expect that the Prince of Jin would be so straightforward when he spoke, and he was quite embarrassed. However, this embarrassment was only a flash, and he lowered his voice and threatened: "Your Highness the Prince of Jin, are you waiting for a price, or have you set your sights on other families? You are so unkind, aren't you afraid of offending my Xu Guogong Mansion?"
