One has been married, the other has been married earlier, and it is not appropriate to invite too many guests, so the Jiang family decided to invite a few good relatives to have a drink.

Yu Shi said: "Let's ask Shuqi to see if he has any relatives and friends who are particularly good, and if so, let him write the invitation himself." Let's see how many tables you can sit at, follow the post, and try to keep the banquet as simple as possible. ”

Murong thought of what the Wen clan had done, and asked coldly, "Sister-in-law, have you given the letter to the Wen clan?" Don't want her to make another fight when the time comes. ”

Shen's face froze.

Yu Shi just didn't see it, and secretly said in his heart: Even if he is calm, it is inevitable that there will be negligence. "If you don't get it done in the morning, don't get into trouble."

Murong also guessed the truth.

Yu said: "I'm a little tired, let's lie down for a while." ”

The Shen clan and the Murong clan withdrew.

Murong said in a low voice: "Sister-in-law really forgot to give her the letter of resignation?" ”

"The letter of resignation reported by the official media department was sent by Chuanye, and I really forgot about the one I have in hand. Last time, Wen was covered in blood and dying, and I really didn't want her to make things worse. There have been so many things lately, and I forgot about this busyness. ”

The Shen family didn't dare to delay any longer, so the chief steward prepared a carriage and immediately got into the carriage and went to Zhuangzi in the countryside.

This is the fruit and vegetable Zhuangzi under the name of the Jiang family, there are more than 30 families who rely on the Jiang family to live, and there is another Zhuangtou, said to be the head of the Zhuang, but more like a landlord, he is a slave who followed Jiang Shuncheng in the early years, and the three generations of the family are all descendants of the Jiang family. The first generation is called Jiang Yi. The eldest son of the second generation is called Jiang Er, the second son is called Jiang Ershun, the youngest son is called Jiang Erping, the eldest grandson of the third generation is called Jiang San, and the second son is called Jiang Sanzhu......

As soon as Zhuangtoujiang heard that the eldest lady was coming, he led his son, daughter-in-law and grandson early and waited at the entrance of the village with the people in Zhuangzi who had lived a solid life.

The big girl whispered: "Big lady, Zhuang Tou is greeting the people with him." ”

Shen picked up the curtain, and the people on the fruit and vegetable village were all dressed brightly and cleanly. It seems that it was specially changed to welcome her. "Now all the families are busy, and go back to work first, if there is anything, I will send someone to pass it on."

Jiang Yi responded and dispersed the people.

Shen entered the Zhuangzi, where an upper house was specially built, and the other side courtyards were inhabited by the head of the village and the long-term workers who helped from the Zhuangzi, and the Zhuangzi built a wall more than a foot high.

Entering the flower hall in the upper room, the Shen family sat in the main seat.

Jiang Yi and his wife stood on one side with their hands down. Jiang Yi whispered to Shen Shi about the harvest of the fruit and vegetable Zhuangzi this year: "This year, the greenhouse has planted four seasons of melons and vegetables, but in the summer, I stopped for a moment and lifted the thatched roof. A good summer of exposure. He also asked Changgong to lay grass fertilizer, add human and animal feed, and the soil was also fattened, and fresh peppers, cucumbers, eggplants, etc. were planted, and now they are three inches high, and they can be planted in a few days to be planted in the warm house......"

It is said to be a warm house, but it is actually a warm shed. A one-person-high earthen wall is built around it to keep warm, and the top is covered with a layer of special cloth, which can let in light and keep out the cold. Jiang Shuncheng bought it from a Western merchant in his early years, and bought more than a dozen horses, all of which were used on it. Each warm house is ten zhang long and one zhang and five wide. There are about six conservatories. I heard that Shiping County, which used fruits and vegetables for the imperial palace, also made this special warm cloth. Every year, when the weather gets warmer, the cloth is taken, cleaned, carefully stored, and in mid to late September, it is taken out and spread again, and the vegetable seedlings are raised, and the melons and vegetables are planted.

Jiang Yi said: "This year, the fruit forest harvested a lot of apples, peaches and apricots, loquats, thirty percent of which were sent to the house for the wives and grandmothers to eat, one percent was eaten by the people on the Zhuangzi, and sixty percent was transported to the fruit and vegetable shops in the two vegetable markets in the imperial city for sale, and a total of 1,427 taels of silver were obtained. There are also vegetables of the four seasons, and from the end of the first month to the present, in addition to those delivered to the house, they have been sold for three thousand six hundred and sixty-one taels of silver......"

He handed over the account book, "Please check the eldest lady, the silver tickets have been prepared, and they are all from Wantong Bank." ”

Shen Shi answered, and asked the big girl next to him to accept it, and the big girl took the account book and took the abacus, and calculated it with a crackle.

Shen took a sip of tea, "Wen is still honest in Zhuangzi, right?" ”

The Jiang family replied with a smile: "Mrs. Five's injuries have healed, and we sent someone to send her back to Jiang Mansion a few days ago." ”

Shen frowned slightly, his face displeased.

The Jiang family quickly came back to their senses, just now the Shen family said "Wen's", not "Fifth Wife", the Jiang family sent someone that day, saying that she was allowed to recuperate on Zhuangzi.

"Send for her." The tone was cold.

The official media bureau has reported that "Wen's immorality was suspended", although there are only these six words, it shows that Wen's is no longer the wife of the Jiang family. Jiang Shuhong wrote a letter to the Xiling clan ancestral hall in Jinyang on behalf of his father as the eldest brother, informing Jiang Shuqi that he was originally married to the Wen family and was divorced.

After a while, a mother-in-law and Wen arrived.

When Wen saw Shen, he was overjoyed, but there was no endless melancholy in his eyes, "The fifth master's hurt ......"

"For now, you can still remember his injuries, he wasn't killed by you, it's his fate." Shen's face was cold, and he didn't look at Wen.

Wen witnessed the suicide of his mother and sister-in-law, and also knew about the tragic death of his father and brother. She really has nothing to rely on, only her husband and children can be relied on. These days, she suffers day and night.

Shen said: "Xiao Jiu was broken by you, and now he is still lying on the bed and can't move, the last time the imperial doctor came to pick up the bones, the heart-rending cry made the next person cry when they heard it...... "She put down the teacup and looked fierce, "You can be so ruthless as a mother." What a good child, you broke your leg when you were born, and the doctor said that even if Xiao Jiu is better one day, he will be sick due to changes in the weather......"

Wen Shi lowered her head, after she came here, no one told her about Jiang Shuqi's father and son.

Guilt, self-blame, and fear are haunted day and night.

Shen said: "I came today to send the fifth master's letter of resignation. The official media bureau and the Jiang family ancestral hall have all canceled the fact that you are the wife of the fifth master......"

Wen exclaimed "no", shook his body, sat on the ground softly, and said in horror: "No! Shuqi won't be so ruthless, won't ......"

"It's not that she's ruthless, it's you. When he was your husband, you took a stick and hit him on the head, if he hadn't died, wouldn't he have been beaten to death by you? There is also Xiao Jiu, he is just a three-year-old child, how can you break his leg and cause a good child to become lame......" Shen's expression was fierce, "On that day, you received twenty sticks in the official mansion and wanted to enter the mansion, I should give you the letter of resignation, see that you are pitiful, so I put it aside." Earlier, the old lord and the fifth lord all burned incense to worship their ancestors, and they gave you a divorce. ”

Wen Shi paused, shook off the beautiful silk handkerchief, and wiped the corners of his mouth elegantly. "The old lady, I and the second room wife helped to see a few famous women for the fifth brother, the fifth brother has passed the eye, has selected the Miss Du family of the Jizhou family, I heard that this Miss Du is a famous talented woman in Jizhou, and she has won the heart of the fifth brother......"

I just said that I would leave her.

Later, it was said that Jiang Shuqi had already looked at each other and selected a newcomer.

Wen didn't think that Jiang Shuqi would be so quick that he would really be ruthless about her.

She had thought thousands of times that if Jiang Shuqi could forgive her, she would definitely be a good wife and listen to him for everything.

But she didn't have a chance.

"What about the kids? What about my children......"

"Don't worry, Miss Du made a promise that after marrying her fifth brother, she will treat Xiao Ba and Xiao Jiu as if they were her own. You don't have to worry about that. Besides, there are old waiters and old ladies here, and there are several of our wives, and the county lord is also a merciful person, so he will not let people deceive them. In addition to taking care of Xiao Jiu every day, Xiao Ba also follows Lao Hou Ye to read and write, and he is also a hard-working ......"

Jiang Yi's whole family stood to the side, listening to Shen's unhurried words.

It turned out that Wen's was suspended!

This woman actually injured her husband and crippled her son, it is really appalling, and it is no wonder that the Jiang family will divorce the Wen family.

Wen Shi was stunned for a moment, and finally came back to his senses, picked up the ground, and crawled to Shen's feet like a dog: "Sister-in-law, I was wrong!" If you forgive me this time, I don't dare to tell the truth anymore! I don't dare to bully Shuqi anymore......"

Shen took out the letter of resignation from his arms and handed it to Wen, who shook his head desperately with tears in his eyes, refusing to answer anything.

Shen let go of his hand, and the book slipped from his fingertips.

Fluttering slowly, like snowflakes, like the last fallen leaves of late autumn, drawing curves, telling endless sadness.

"Sister-in-law......" Wen burst into tears, she was scared at first, but she never got the letter of divorce, she thought that Shuqi was reluctant, in the end it was a husband and wife for seven years, and he would not divorce her.

Shen Shi said coldly: "I'll give you a few options." First, from now on, you will retire in this Zhuangzi, and if he wants to marry someone one day, he will marry you like a powerful girl. ”

The big girl in Wenzhong Mansion......

It turned out that she was no longer a wife, but a slave.

Take her as the slave maid of the Jiang family, and marry and marry the same as the slave maid.

"Second, I sent you to the Eleventh Palace, don't you still have two sisters who serve as concubines in the Eleventh Palace. You can live with them. ”

Wen shook his head.

She guessed that Jiang Shuqi might take a break from her, but after waiting for so long, she thought that he couldn't bear to care about the relationship between husband and wife.

The Wen family was defeated, his father was executed by Ling Chi, his brother and nephew were beheaded in the vegetable market, she had not seen it, someone in the village had gone to see it, and when she came back, she still talked about the tragic situation of that day.

At night, as soon as she closed her eyes, it was as if she saw the killing of her father and brother.

Since she can't change it, she accepts to try her best to get more benefits for herself. "In the past, I married into the Jiang family, and the grange and shop were taught to my mother to take care of ......"

If she hadn't been resentful, she would have left her things in the Jiang family, even if she was divorced, she would still be able to get her dowry back, and she would have no worries about food and clothing in the future, but she didn't think that all these things she relied on for her life would be gone.

"But I still have head jewelry, clothes, silk ......"

Shen laughed, "Can these things be worth fifty thousand taels of silver?" ”

Wen Shi cried silently, she was tricky in the past, even if she was not at ease in the prison, she didn't think about it, but in exchange for the Jiang family's unchangeable abandonment.
