Chapter 305: Inappropriate Eating and Drinking

“Mother, we thought that even though we weren’t blood relatives, after spending more than ten years together day and night, we should have some affection for each other.

Why did you do this to me? Did I do something wrong? "Wen Yan covered her chest and almost fainted from crying.

Jiang Xinkui's face was as dark as if covered with soot.

After the child was found, she was afraid that everyone would scold her, so she intentionally or unintentionally revealed to others that it was Zhang Gan'niang who was greedy and vain and secretly replaced her daughter.

Now that Wen Yan has revealed everything, all her lies have been exposed.

"Shut up and don't say anything more!" She wanted to rush over and cover Wen Yan's mouth, but was blocked by Ying Zhilin.

Wen Yan suddenly knelt down in front of Jiang Xinkui and said solemnly, "Madam Jiang, since you look down on me so much, our relationship ends here and we should say goodbye.

Sister Ruyue will return to be filial to you, and I also want to go back as a daughter of the Liu family to serve my biological parents."

After that, she kowtowed three times to Jiang Xinkui and said, "I will repay you for your care over the past ten years in my next life."

Jiang Xinkui was furious: "You just said you'd break up with me? Over the years, we've spent so much money on you, so much effort on your development, so many connections, and you're just going to brush it off? Not to mention anything else, even the Meng family was only established because of our Wen family's status."

Wen Yan has everything she has now thanks to the Wen family. How can she get away with this so easily?

Wen Yan's eyes were red: "But these years... Wen Ruyue was born prematurely and was very weak. It was my parents who spent all their family fortune and searched for doctors and medicine everywhere before they cured her.

In order to buy beautiful clothes and jewelry for Wen Ruyue, I was reluctant to see a doctor even when my mother was sick.

Although we are not equal in terms of money, I am just as attentive as you.

never mind……"

Wen Yan smiled bitterly and wiped away her tears: "Then, please ask Madam Jiang to settle my expenses over the years. Even if I have to sell everything I have, I will definitely return the money to you."

"There's no need for you to sell everything you have." Madam Bai strode over. "As long as you can get rid of the Wen family, I'll pay for it."

"Sister-in-law, let me do it. You have sold everything you need to raise disaster relief funds. I still have some money, which should be enough to pay for the Wen family's upbringing." Second Aunt Meng also came over.

Wen Yan looked at them gratefully: "Stepmother, Second Aunt, thank you."

Second Aunt rubbed her hair and said, "We have watched you grow up, how can we bear to see you suffer any injustice?"

Mrs. Bai turned around to help Jiang Xinkui up, exerting a little force on her hands.

Jiang Xinkui only felt a pain in her arm, but within a breath, half of her body lost consciousness and she couldn't even make a sound.

"Madam Jiang, don't let things get out of hand until you're ahead." Madam Bai smiled, but her eyes were full of threats. "Believe me, I've fought on the battlefield for over twenty years. I have the strength and the means to deal with a lady like you, a government official."

This was not the first time Jiang Xinkui had dealt with Madam Bai, but it was the first time she was threatened by her.

I suddenly had no desire to resist and could only nod.

"Mrs. Jiang has agreed. You are indeed gentle and considerate." Mrs. Bai let go of her hand.

Jiang Xinkui fell to the ground instantly.

Madam Bai turned around and saluted the Emperor and Empress, "Your Majesty, I would like to ask you two to be witnesses for Wen Yan and settle this old case."

The emperor and the empress looked at each other, and the empress understood what was in the emperor's eyes.

Then he asked Wen Yan, "Do you really want to break off this engagement?"

Wen Yan nodded vigorously.

The Queen looked at Jiang Xinkui again: "What about you? Do you have the same idea?"

Jiang Xinkui didn't want to, but she didn't dare to resist Mrs. Bai.

I had to nod.

The queen immediately sent a palace maid to accompany Wen Yan, handle the matter, and then return to the palace to report to her.

Wen Yan talked about purchasing charcoal again.

The emperor was a little angry when he saw that she was stubborn.

The queen tugged at his sleeve, and the emperor's anger instantly subsided.

The Queen whispered to him, "She specifically mentioned the charcoal farmers around the capital because she's probably worried that if the palace buys her charcoal, the charcoal farmers outside the capital will lose their income."

Those who lost their income did not dare to blame the emperor, but would blame everything on Wen Yan.

The emperor snorted softly, "She is kind-hearted and has considered everything."

I just didn't consider his face.

The Queen smiled gently: "Those charcoal farmers are already struggling, and winter is even harder. If they lose their only income, I'm afraid this winter will be difficult for them.

Don’t you also care about the people?

Besides, being able to reject you in public shows that such straightforwardness is better than those who beat around the bush, right? "

The queen coaxed the emperor into submission with just a few words.

The emperor snorted, "For your sake, I'll spare her this time."

Just when everyone thought Wen Yan was dead this time.

Then the emperor said, "Since you care about the livelihoods of the surrounding charcoal farmers, I will forgive you this time."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for not punishing me. Your Majesty is wise and cares about the people. You are a blessing to all the people." Wen Yan quickly flattered him.

The emperor was at a loss as to whether to laugh or cry. He waved his hand and asked her, "You spent so much manpower and material resources to buy charcoal, but if you can't sell it, won't you lose a lot of money?"

"Reporting to the Emperor, I have done nothing wrong.

"A Little Ink" had already gained popularity when it was raising funds for disaster relief, and the shop has made a lot of money in the past six months.

I dare not lie. I got some money from the technology dividends of "Yidianmo" and with the help from various parties, I was able to buy those charcoals.

As for the charcoal I bought, I don’t have to worry about selling it. I opened a new shop and I just need a lot of charcoal.”

The emperor laughed heartily: "As expected! Although your personality is very different from Chi Fei's, you are both brave and resourceful, and you dare to think and act.

In this case, I will cancel the order for the palace to purchase charcoal.

Since you have opened a new shop, please tell me the name of your new shop and what you do?"

"This is a small shop of mine, a place for women's entertainment. It's called Qingfeng Xiaolou."

The emperor waved his hand and said, "Pen and ink are at your service."

The corners of the mouths of the surrounding civil and military officials twitched.

Here it comes.

The emperor is here again!

Every time he gave someone a reward, he would write a piece of calligraphy.

Once or twice, everyone thought that the emperor valued this person.

After a while, everyone understood the key.

It was not because he valued it, but because the emperor was reluctant to spend money and did not want others to think he was stingy, so he had to reward him. He then practiced calligraphy diligently.

As long as it did not involve major state affairs, he would give people a name.

Some powerful officials already had three or four pieces of calligraphy by the emperor in their homes.

That thing can neither be given away nor sold for money.

Not only should they be eaten or drunk, but they should also be worshipped like ancestors.

The person who received the reward was not happy at all.

Just now, they were jealous of Wen Yan being valued, but now that she was awarded a calligraphy work, they were so excited that they began to gloat over her misfortune.

After a while, the four words "Qingfeng Xiaolou" appeared on the paper in a vigorous and powerful manner.

Wen Yan took the calligraphy and prepared to leave.

"Wait." The queen suddenly called out to her.

"What else do you want, Madam?"
