36. The marriage contract is annulled
Before Zhao Dong could speak, Mrs. Zhao scolded: "Is the marriage contract child's play, it was your elders who were the masters back then, just because Chen'er wanted to take a concubine, you tore up the marriage book?!"
The anger was like a storm crashing on the shore, just venting at Li Weizhu, Zhou Weiyue's face couldn't help but turn white, and she felt like a small boat in the waves. It really hurt the pond fish.
Zhou Weiyue was afraid of Mrs. Zhao, Li Weizhu was not afraid, probably felt that this marriage contract was also going to be withdrawn, and once I made it clear to the Zhao family today, there would be no future, and said: "Back then, I said that I could only take a concubine when I was forty years old and had no children, and more than half an hour ago, Mr. Zhao still said this, and after half an hour, the contract changed." This marriage contract can probably be changed as well. β
"I also think it's good that the marriage contract has changed. Regardless of Mrs. Zhao's anger, and ignoring the complexity of her own master, Zhou Qingru walked in front of Bai Qian, "Give me the marriage letter." β
"Qingru ......" Zhao Dong looked at his wife, his eyes were indescribably complicated.
Zhou saw that the red note in his hand was the eldest son's birthday, and the payment on the marriage certificate was indeed his husband's handwriting, so he confirmed with Zhao Dong again, "Is there a mistake in this marriage letter?
"Nothing wrong, just ......"
As soon as he heard the word "no mistake", Zhou tore up the note with the marriage book and the eight characters of the birthday in his hand in two or three clicks, "This marriage contract is invalid." Li Weizhu raised his hand and sprinkled the crumbs lightly, while Zhou held the book of his son's marriage contract firmly in the palm of his hand.
Seeing that her aunt tore up the marriage book with her own hands, Zhou Weiyue's mind became active, without Li Weizhu, she probably could not be a concubine, but could be a main room, in such an environment, her face was flushed.
Zhou Weiyue was a bystander to this accident, and no one noticed the change in her expression.
Being able to get rid of Li Weizhu, Zhou doesn't mind being convenient with others and himself. "Does anyone in the stockade know about the marriage?" she asked softly.
Li Weizhu shook her head, "I only know that I am engaged, but I don't know which one." β
Zhou smiled with satisfaction, and Wen Yan said: "It's not easy for your little girl's family, this marriage contract was originally known by no one in Zhangyang City, and it is not a retreat, so it is regarded as if there has never been such a marriage." β
Li Weizhu heard Zhou's words, bent her lips and smiled, her smile was dazzling, and she made a serious salute to Zhou Qingru, "Thank you Mrs. Zhao for that." β
Old Madam Zhao closed her eyes and took off the Buddhist beads on her wrist, and at this moment her thumb pressed the smooth beads one by one, and moved quickly, obviously her mood was not as calm as it looked.
At first, the movement of playing with the Buddha beads was very fast, but then it slowed down, she may be old, I don't understand what the children think, she just wants to press the little girl's temperament, she jumped out and tore up the marriage contract?
The marriage contract really didn't work, Zhao Dong is a businessman, and what he learned in the mall is that buying and selling is not benevolent, "Although I have withdrawn from my family, I can be regarded as having some fate, if there is any difficulty, I will talk to you Uncle Zhao." β
Li Weizhu shook her head, "There's no difficulty, I'll leave later." β
Thinking that Li Weizhu was returning to the village, it would not be embarrassing to let Li Weizhu live after retreating, Zhao Dong bowed slightly, "After lunch, then leave?"
"No need. β
Old Madam Zhao stood up suddenly, and before leaving the main hall, she stopped her steps, "Take some silver from the account room, leave from Zhangyang City, and give their master and servant some silver to their side." β
"Thank you, old lady. Li Weizhu didn't hate the old lady of the Zhao Mansion, she was a little stubborn, and believed in the last word that she had kept all her life. At this time, he also gave a big gift to the old lady.
Hearing Li Weizhu's words of thanks, Mrs. Zhao didn't look back, her footsteps were just undetectable, and she walked forward.
Zhou said to Zhao Dong: "The master came back in a hurry, and he was also tired, so go back to the room to wash, and I will settle Miss Li here." Zhou Qingru's voice was also brisk.
As long as he doesn't harm his precious son, Zhou Qingru is a person who can't talk better, and he took out two hundred taels of silver tickets from the account room, "The little girl's family has no grandfather, and this silver ticket is held by her side." In addition, twenty taels of broken silver were handed over to Bai Qian, and even three copper coins were taken, "When you go out, your wealth is not exposed." Use these coppers first. β
The Zhao family does not lack this amount of silver, when Zhao Shaoxing was given a leg treatment, the reward given was the medicinal materials of the previous year, the price was far more than one hundred taels of silver, if it was according to Zhou's original thoughts, giving one hundred taels was probably enough for the three masters and servants to chew for half a lifetime, and the money was added at this time purely because of the old lady's instructions before leaving.
Just think of it as a peace of mind, and with this little money, I bought the marriage book between Li Weizhu and my own son.
Li Weizhu could also guess Mrs. Zhao's mentality, since the other party was not short of this money, he did not shirk and took it, "Thank you Mrs. Zhao for your kindness, I have already packed up my things, Madder is still waiting in the house, it is strange hot today, I will leave by myself." β
Zhou Weiyue opened her mouth and said, "Auntie, I'll send Miss Li." β
Zhou Qingru didn't know what Zhou Weiyue's plan was, and she didn't want to have any troubles, but if the two of them quarreled, it would not be beautiful, "You are recovering from a serious illness, so you can rest." β
Zhou Qingru is a non-verbal character, Zhou Weiyue wants to ask Li Weizhu, she is willing to leave like this, but she can't ask anything, she smiled at her aunt and said: "It's really hot today, I'll go back first." β
Half an hour later, the three masters and servants walked out of the luxurious Zhao Mansion.
Li Weizhu looked back at Zhao Fu, pursed her lips and smiled, and her steps became lighter and lighter.
Originally, the three of them didn't have many outfits, but after walking around the Luo family, the huge package that Madder was carrying made people look sideways, and when they came out of the Zhao family, they had two more silver tickets and some broken silver.
"I thought the young lady would refuse the money. Bai Qi whispered.
Li Weizhu touched the silver ticket in her arms, as if she was happy, "How can that be." "It is true that silver is rarely used in the village, and she will only be lavish at the beginning when she comes out of the village, and only later will she lose those silver tickets, and make the master and servant three wolf bΓ¨i look like something, then she knows the importance of silver. Now that she knows the importance, she must have taken the silver, not to mention, "I took this silver ticket to make her feel at ease." β
"Shall we go out of town now?" Madder said.
"It's too hot today. Li Weizhu shook her head, her body was dry and refreshing, Bai Qi was afraid of heat, there was already sweat on her forehead, and the madder grass wrapped on her back was sweating like rain, "Anyway, there is silver, let's go to the inn to live first, I'm afraid that it will rain either today or tomorrow, and when the rain stops, it will be autumn, and we will go on the road again." β
There was no need to wait until the second day, but in the afternoon the wind suddenly began to rain, and after the rain, it was much cooler, and the group went out of the city early in the morning.
Before Li Weizhu entered the inn, she was wearing women's clothes, and when she came out of the inn, she regained her man's dress, her eyes were red on her side, and she stayed up all night to embroider the handkerchief, and was ready to sell it at a good price before leaving Zhangyang City.
When he walked out of the city gate, he happened to meet Zhao Shaochen.
Zhao Shaochen saw Li Weizhu in men's clothes before he could react, but he recognized the two maids beside her, and unbelievably moved his gaze back to Li Weizhu's body, he recognized Li Weizhu as the person who saved Luo Ming in Lizheng Academy.
"Why are you dressed like this?" Zhao Shaochen blushed, "You were with ...... before"
"Zhao Gongzi. Li Weizhu shook her finger at Zhao Shaochen, "Although it has only been a few days, some things have changed. β
What can happen in just a few days?
Seeing that Li Weizhu was leaving, Zhao Shaochen grabbed Li Weizhu's wrist without thinking about it, but that time in the garden, Zhao Shaochen could easily grab Li Weizhu's wrist, at this time Li Weizhu had already withdrawn from him, Bai Qian had already stopped in front of Li Weizhu, and said with a smile: "Zhao Gongzi, please respect yourself." β
A stunned look appeared on Junxiu's face, Zhao Shaochen still remembered this white maid, her eyes were shining when she looked at herself before, she saw herself as Li Weizhu's fiancΓ©, but her eyes changed at this time.
"Are you having a temper?" Zhao Shaochen ignored the little girl Bai Qian, looked at Li Weizhu, and frowned, "Go back with me." β
Li Weizhu shook his head, "Zhao Gongzi, I'll know when you go back." After speaking, he didn't look at Zhao Shaochen, and left with the two maids.
"You ......" Zhao Shaochen wanted to catch up, but was grabbed by the arm of the little girl Songyan, "Young master, Miss Li's affairs will be known when you return home." β
"But she's dressed like this, and she's going out of the city?!" Zhao Shaochen's face was pale, she was his wife who hadn't passed through the door, and she actually went out wearing a man's service?
"The old lady, the old man, and the lady all know. Songyan's words made Zhao Shaochen settle down, "What happened?"
Song Yan remembered Madame's instructions, and didn't dare to tell the young master the news outside, it was purely an accident that she met the girl of the Li family just now, "Young Master, Madam has ordered, and the matter can only be said again, it is inconvenient outside." β
Zhao Shaochen knew his mother's temperament, and he could only hear Song Yan say this. "Let's go back. Zhao Shaochen thought of Li Weizhu's medical skills that day, could it be that they asked her to wear men's clothes to treat people?
It was only after Zhao Shaochen went back that he knew that Li Weizhu was no longer her fiancΓ©e.
Zhao Shaochen continued to prepare for the exam in Lizheng Academy, and when he returned to the house, his cousin even said against him, and he forgot the marriage contract he had had, he thought he had even forgotten Li Weizhu's appearance, until he went to Kyoto a long time later, and he met Li Weizhu again, and he realized that he had never forgotten this beautiful woman.
At that time, she was no longer an orphan girl from the Li family, but a girl from the Xie family. Dressed gorgeously, with a clear smile and elegant manners, he was stunned to look at.
The daughter of the Xie family asks for a hundred families.
He once had a marriage contract with the daughter of the Xie family......
