Fleeing Famine: Breaking Engagement, Establishing a Female Household

Xu Zhiyi transmigrated! She opened her eyes to a scene of being caught in an illicit affair, a setup by the original owner's fiancé and best friend, all to break off the engagement! She decided...

Chapter 241: Mrs. Xu died with her eyes wide open!!

Chapter 241: Mrs. Xu died with her eyes wide open!!

After this incident, the Xue family came to the shop from time to time, and each time they came they would find an excuse to give her silver bills or gold and silver jewelry.

He also gave Xu Zhiyi three shops and a big house, which were just to the right of the Xue Mansion, and the current deed to the pastry shop was also given to Xu Zhiyi. As for Xue Yinyin, she chose another dowry shop.

Xu Zhiyi looked at her small treasury and didn't expect that she would become rich overnight!

These days, everyone in the Xu family tried every means to suck blood from the Wu family. Mrs. Wu was really irritated by this group of people. In addition, Xu Yunyue's belly was getting bigger day by day, so Mrs. Wu made a plan to let everyone in the Xu family jump in and die.

Xu Zhiyi specially bought a small hill, and with the accompaniment of everyone in the Xue family, he finally buried the bodies of Xu Yong and Shen's father and mother!

Everyone in the Xue family looked at the small grave and their eyes couldn't help but become moist. They didn't even get to see their own son and brother, and they felt a regret in their hearts!

In the following days, Xu Zhiyi concentrated his attention on business.

Of the three shops given by the Xue family, she planned to use one as a casual milk tea and snack shop, and another as a spicy noodle shop.

One room is used as a branch of Yan Yi Pavilion, with designed jewelry and hair accessories. She has a good foundation in painting, and she has been particularly fond of ancient accessories even in modern times. I can't create something original, but she can draw it based on memory!

She found chili peppers in the space a few days ago, and now yam flour can be made into transparent vermicelli. The villagers have also grown yam seedlings. When the harvest is ready, she will have yam to supply, and the villagers can sell yam to her, so she can also earn some income, and everyone's life can be improved a lot.

Just when she was ready and preparing to open the two shops one day apart, she received a piece of news that made the whole country sad: the current emperor had passed away! The next monarch of Fenglin Kingdom was actually the regent princess who ascended the throne!!!

As soon as the news came out, men could be heard whispering in every corner of the street:

"What? A woman sits on the throne? Our Fenglin Kingdom is probably finished! We are actually being controlled by a woman."

"Oh, this brother is right. No matter how powerful the princess is, she is still just a woman after all! Women have always been at home serving their parents-in-law and taking care of their husbands and children! As a woman, the princess should just give birth to children and take care of her backyard."

"Tsk tsk, do you think that all the ministers in Kyoto are cowards? They actually let a woman ascend the throne. In the long run, won't that woman climb over us men?"

"Hush, keep your voice down, don't say any more! Be careful not to be heard, this is a crime of disrespect! You will be beheaded."

Meanwhile, Gu Yun, who had finally hooked up with the daughter of a wealthy man's fat wife, got a lot of benefits from her. He was taking the money to the town's academy to register for admission when he saw Xu Zhiyi.

"Da... Ya? Uh no, I should call you Zhiyi! How come you have changed so much?"

Xu Zhiyi didn't expect that when she came to the academy today to help Su Mingchuan find out the admission requirements, she would run into Gu Yun. She glanced at him coldly, and without intending to answer him, she turned and walked in another direction.

"Zhiyi! I haven't seen you for so long, how are you doing?" Gu Yun quickly went up to stop Xu Zhiyi and asked, then looking at Xu Zhiyi's rosy face, he realized that what he asked was nonsense.

Xu Zhiyi: "Get out of the way, or I'll hit you!!"

Gu Yun: "Zhiyi, you are still angry with me, aren't you?" Are you still unable to let him go?

"Who the hell are you? How dare you make me angry and remember you for so long? Get out of the way, or you can't blame me if you break your arms and legs!"

"Zhiyi, I want to apologize to you. I'm the host today, would you please do me the honor?"

Xu Zhiyi couldn't help but punch him in the face after hearing this: "Bah, I'm giving you a favor? You're not bold enough!"

"ah!!"

"If you stop me again, I will beat you to pieces!!"

Hearing this, Gu Yun covered his face and watched Xu Zhiyi walk away, with a trace of regret in his eyes. He didn't expect that she would not only become so cute and beautiful, but also looked like she had spent a lot of money on her outfit.

Is Xu Zhiyi rich? No, I have to find out for myself.

Only then did they return to the pastry shop, and the Xu Lei and Xu Le families found the shop.

Xu Lei: "Niece! Your grandma is going to die soon, you and Su should go and see her for the last time!"

Xu Le: "That's right! Even if the relationship is severed, my grandma is going to die soon, so it shouldn't be too much to go and see her, right?"

Hearing this, Xu Zhiyi snorted coldly: "Oh, look at her? My father is not your biological brother. Have you forgotten what the Xue family warned you about?"

"If you want to come here and cheat me out of my money for the coffin, please use your brains. I have no relatives or friends with you now. If you want a coffin, please go to the coffin shop at the end of North Street!"

Xu Lei: "You...you cursed us?"

Xu Zhiyi: "Curse? You all look short-lived, there's no need for me to curse you."

Hearing this, Xu Le gritted his teeth and said, "You... Humph, Big Brother, let's go!!"

The two of them had originally thought of coming here to inform Xu Zhiyi, asking her to go see her mother for the last time, and by the way, spend money to settle her mother's funeral! The two brothers had lost money recently, and they didn't even have the money to buy a coffin!

At this time, Old Mrs. Xu was lying on the bed, hanging on to her last breath. Since she became bedridden, the true nature of everyone in the family was completely exposed. She ate, drank, defecated and urinated in bed, and no one was willing to come and help her.

In the end, the two daughters-in-law disliked her smell and stopped bringing her food, leaving her to starve to the point of being skin and bones. In the end, she had no choice but to eat as she was extremely hungry and had a strong desire to survive, so she just pooped and ate by herself. Fortunately, her hands could still move.

She hadn't defecated for several days in a row, and she was so hungry that she was only left with one breath. She had no strength in her body and couldn't move even if she wanted to!

The foul stench on her body had bred many maggots, which kept crawling all over her. She could feel the maggots crawling on her body and face, but she no longer had the strength to care!

Before she died, her mind suddenly became clear. Her mind was filled with thoughts of how Xu Yong had always obeyed her when he was alive, and of Su as her daughter-in-law, and Xu Zhiyi as her granddaughter. This was her retribution!

It turned out that the second wife, whom she had abused, was the one who was truly filial to her and treated her well. As for the first and third wives, she was blind and favored them for most of her life, but in the end, they treated her like this.

She regrets it!!! She feels sorry for the second brother!

As expected, her own children are just as selfish and vicious as she is. This is...her retribution! She...did evil!!

sorry! !

After Old Mrs. Xu said this in her heart, her last breath finally stopped!

Just die on the stinking bed with your eyes wide open!!!

Neither Xu Lei nor Xu Le went to check, because Old Mrs. Xu had defecated on the bed and the stench could be smelled even when passing by her room door. In the end, the people in the two rooms decided to lock the door.

So, no one came to collect Old Mrs. Xu’s body a day after she passed away. Everyone thought she was still alive!

It was not until the corpse rotted and gave off a foul smell that we realized the person had already died!
