When Wang Ji knew that Xia Xiyan planned to leave Linqiong County, he knew that he was bad, but he didn't expect that he would suffer so quickly.

In Linqiong County, which he governs, the three tycoons who moved out in less than a month, and other small tycoons also leave, so that the street market in Linqiong County has been closed by one-third, and the lives of the citizens have been affected a lot, and the bazaars that used to be lively like provincial cities have also become mediocre, and the small traders in Linqiong County have suffered heavy losses.

He also tried his best to keep the rich and small who wanted to follow the Zhuo family out of Linqiong County, but in the end he didn't stay, and they asked him to quickly obey the will of the people to expel his 'noble' Sima Xiangru out of Linqiong County.

He risked hundreds of thousands of losses to 'destroy relatives with righteousness' and issued an expulsion order to Sima Xiang, and fell out with his friend Sima Xiangru, thinking that this would regain public opinion, but he didn't want to be forced to leave the rich households in Linqiong County on the grounds that he was not effective in governing Linqiong County

sued the imperial history, and then lost the official position of the county order.

"Husband, you are confused! How could he fund Sima Xiangru in this way, offended the Zhuo family, lost the hearts of the people, and lost all the money that the family had accumulated for so many years. Wang Ji's wife Wu watched her husband be dismissed from office, and lost most of the family property, so she was a little angry and read Wang Ji's sentence, although there was some blame, but it was only a blaming sentence, but when Wang Ji was not asked what their family would do in the future, Wang Ji was ashamed because of what happened in the past few days, and scolded his wife Wu.

"You stupid woman, don't dictate what I'm doing, don't you want me to go home!" Wang Ji used the majestic words he used to say to Wu, which reminded Wu that the year before last, she was driven back to her parents' house by Wang Ji to abandon the matter of picking a few dates from the branches of the jujube trees that her neighbors had reached into their house.

At the beginning, Wang Ji made a fuss about him because she picked a few jujubes that stretched out to his own house, so he wanted to divorce him to show his 'honesty as an official', no matter how hard she married into the Wang family, not to mention the merits and hard work, not to mention their husband and wife for many years, saying that she would be driven away, if it weren't for the neighbors who knew about it, they were all scared to cut their own dates to persuade Wang Ji not to abandon her for such a small thing, Wang Ji also insisted on taking a break, and finally several neighbors interceded for her, so that she was saved from the fate of being abandoned.

"Husband, that's how you call me around! You have lost hundreds of thousands of yuan of family wealth and lost your official position, I just want to abandon me again! Husband, did you look down on me from the beginning, that's why you will abandon my words so lightly, if this is really the case, I will not wait for my husband to give up, I will ask myself to go to court! Wu thought of the fact that a few dates were about to be abandoned, and his heart rose again, and at the same time, he thought of the fact that for so many years, because of Wang Ji's official position, she had been calling back and forth, and she didn't dare to resist too much because her family was just a flat-headed common person, and suddenly she didn't want to endure it anymore and said 'please leave the court'.

"What are you talking about, you stupid woman? Don't go to cook yet, now that there are no slaves at home, do you want to starve me to death? "Wang Ji lost money and official positions one after another, and when his worth plummeted, he habitually threatened the Wu family casually and brushed his prestige, but he didn't expect to provoke his wife, who had always been afraid and afraid of him, to 'ask for resignation', this is not what Wang Ji, who has no power, no power and no wealth, really wants, and now that he is divorced from the Wu family, he is not like when he was a county magistrate, he can marry a better wife than the Wu family.

Wang Ji knew these joints very well, so after Wu's tough words, he immediately changed the topic and asked Wu to get food.

However, the Wu family has endured it for so many years, and today Wang Ji once again proposed the chilling matter of 'abandonment', which was so good to transfer. And Wang Ji scolded her like a slave, and Wu thought about it because his life after marriage was miserable.

"I'm a stupid woman, I'm not worthy of you Wang Ji, and I'm not worthy of cooking for you, I'll go back to my Wu family, don't get in the way of your eyes, and I'm sorry for you." After Wu said sarcastically, he turned around and went back to the bedroom to pack his bags and go back to Wu's house.

Wang Ji saw that the Wu family was leaving with a burden, and he was not in a hurry, thinking that the Wu family would come back again in a few days at most to continue to be his wife, but he didn't know that the Wu family had already been chilled by him, and he was not afraid of the influence of Wang Ji, who was not a county order, on her future marriage, and sent a letter of resignation, and it didn't take long for her to marry an honest and responsible person under the arrangement of her family.

When Wang Ji knew, he scolded the Wu family, but he was helpless against the Wu family, who had nothing to do with him, and began to pawn things to live alone in a mansion that had no one to take care of and no money to take care of.

***

Wang Ji lost his official position, was cheated out of his family wealth by Sima Xiangru, and lived a depressed life of pawning things, Sima Xiangru, who was driven out by the people of Linqiong County, took Zhuo Wenjun, who followed him, to live even more depressed.

The restaurant under his name was smashed by the people of Linqiong County, not to mention, the title deed in his hand was driven out by the people of Linqiong County in an embarrassing manner before he could get some money, and he could no longer enter Linqiong County.

Sima Xiangru, who had returned to poverty and whiteness, looked at Zhuo Wenjun, who was crying because of various unfilial accusations, and was very disgusted in his heart, but he still had to continue to chase her to Xia Xiyan, who settled in X County.

Sima Xiangru is also difficult to ride a tiger now, and the good reputation of the literati was lost in Linqiong County because of the calculation of Xia Xiyan, and he did not get the qiē he wanted because of marrying Zhuo Wenjun, and he must continue to live with Zhuo Wenjun for some fame.

Because now Sima Xiangru wants to dump Zhuo Wenjun immediately, the two of them go their separate ways to completely confirm that he pursued Zhuo Wenjun at the beginning to see the financial resources of the Zhuo family behind her and want to eat soft rice, so it is impossible for him to give up Zhuo Wenjun unless he has to. And his current situation, whether he abandons Zhuo Wenjun or not, is in a state of being poor and unable to eat for nothing, for not finding a better family matter than Zhuo Wenjun, Sima Xiangru is also reluctant to abandon Zhuo Wenjun like this, approaching him has already paid a lot of things, but nothing has been gained, Sima Xiangru is also a little unwilling, this kind of unwillingness, will make Sima Xiangru ruthless must let Xia Xiyan recognize him and Zhuo Wenjun.

And Sima Xiangru always felt that he could still find a way to force Xia Xiyan to recognize him as a son-in-law, obediently take out Zhuo Wenjun's dowry, and let them live a rich life.

So after knowing that Xia Xiyan moved to Y County with the Zhuo family, Sima Xiangru was driven out of Linqiong County, so he decisively took Zhuo Wenjun to chase him on foot, however, the shoes were worn out, and the people were still hungry and cold to come to X County, but Sima Xiangru and himself were stopped outside X County.

"You are Sima Xiangru, you can't enter our county!" The city guard checked Sima Xiangru's document and refused to let him in when he knew who he was.

"Why?" Sima Xiangru and Zhuo Wenjun, who could enter X County, asked the city guards, and the city guards impatiently told them, "This is the order of the county order, X County and Linqiong County expel Sima Xiangru, so he can't enter, if you want to go in, go in, if you don't go in, leave with him quickly!" ”

The doorman didn't look at Sima Xiangru to answer the question, but looked at Zhuo Wenjun. Zhuo Wenjun also continued to ask why Sima Xiangru was also expelled from X County.

"It's not all the bad things you did, the county order is afraid that you will go in and persecute Zhuo Gong like this, Zhuo Gong is not easy to settle in our county with a large number of assets, how can we let you make Zhuo Gong angry again, you can enter, it also depends on how you were the daughter of the Zhuo family before you, but if you go in and do something to make Zhuo Gong embarrassed, the county order has also issued an order, and it is also the first time to be expelled from our X county." After the city guard finished speaking, he saw that Zhuo Wenjun still went to see Sima Xiangru, as if he was waiting for his instructions, and asked impatiently, "Do you want to enter our county, if you don't enter, get out of the way, and stand here blocking others." ”

Zhuo Wenjun was yelled at like this, and he was a little aggrieved and stood aside with Sima Xiangru, but the city guard looked at her and Sima Xiangru with disdain, and then scolded Xia Xiyan, "The family is unfortunate to give birth to this kind of unfilial descendant who calculates his own family!" ”

Zhuo Wenjun heard the other party say that she was unfilial, so she cried a little sadly, but she couldn't arouse the sympathy of anyone who knew what she had done, but was pointed at, Sima Xiangru couldn't stand this pointing, so he quickly pulled Zhuo Wenjun out of the gate of X County and went to a remote and uninhabited place.

"Wenjun, don't cry!"

Sima Xiangru looked at Zhuo Wenjun, who only knew how to cry and did not take the initiative to enter X County to ask for Xia Xiyan, and felt a little resentful in his heart, but when he was also thinking about his future plans, he suppressed these feelings and hugged Zhuo Wenjun lightly.

Zhuo Wenjun was comforted by Sima Xiangru, but she was more aggrieved and cried more fiercely, she didn't know why she was in such a situation now, she had a reputation for unfilial piety, and she was abandoned by Xia Xiyan to live elsewhere, so ruthless, so that she didn't know how to survive in the future.

Rely on Sima Xiangru?

Zhuo Wenjun had already seen that although Sima Xiangru had some talents, these talents could not support his family, nor could he support his family. One of them, a young lady and a scholar, are all people who can't pick their shoulders and can't lift them, and without the funding of others, they can't live a poor life at all.

When she followed Sima Xiangru to elope to Chengdu, it was after understanding this that she had the cheekiness to ask for Xia Xiyan's funding, and gave her the dowry she gave back then, so that she and Sima Xiangru could live a poor life, but she didn't want Xia Xiyan to be so ruthless and ruthless, and she was far away from her.

"Changqing, what do you think we will do in the future?" Her father didn't recognize them, didn't give them the capital to live, and she didn't want to calculate the Zhuo family so much, but Zhuo Wenjun clearly knew that they couldn't live on their own, Zhuo Wenjun was a little anxious when he thought about it, but Sima Xiangru was more anxious than her, so after coaxing her patiently, Sima Xiangru immediately opened his mouth and told him what he planned to do later.

"Now we can't stay in Linqiong County, there is nothing in Chengdu's hometown except a house, and if you go back, you will starve to death, and Brother Wang will not help us, you are in Zhuo's house, but you can't do it with coarse tea and light rice with me, it's me Sima Xiangru is incompetent, you are suffering with me now, and X County is still open to you, which proves that your father has not completely given up on you, as long as you and I are separated, they will accept you again." Wenjun, it's better to go back to Zhuo's house, continue to live your eldest lady's life, and find a good family to marry in the future! Sima Xiangru looked at Zhuo Wenjun with a distressed and reluctant face, thinking that he persuaded Zhuo Wenjun to persuade her to go back.

Zhuo Wenjun heard Sima Xiangru think about her, and was moved to express his reluctance to leave Sima Xiangru, Sima Xiangru pretended to persuade Zhuo Wenjun to go back a few words, and Zhuo Wenjun loyally said that he would starve to death and be with Sima Xiangru.

Sima Xiangru was 'moved' at the same time, but he still didn't want Zhuo Wenjun to suffer, so he came up with a 'clever plan'.

"Wenjun, we don't have any property now, and we still need the support of my father-in-law, but looking at his rejection of me, we need to find another way to alleviate it, my father-in-law will not be able to accept me for a while, you might as well pretend to be separated from me and return to Zhuo's house."
