Chapter 345 Unbinding

At nightfall, the lights in the side hall of the front yard of the Shen Mansion were shining.

Shen Zhilan followed Shen and got off the carriage at the main gate. She was in the mood to admire the Shen family's mansion along the way.

In fact, although the Shen family is on the decline, it is still a century-old prestigious family.

Every tree and blade of grass in the mansion imitates the gardens in Suzhou, and every scene exudes poetry and elegance.

The funny thing is that before she got married in her previous life, Shen Zhilan rarely came to the front yard.

Later, she married into the Guo family, which was a merchant family. The Shen family was eager to sever ties with her, and she couldn't even enter the gate of their mansion.

"Zhilan, what are you thinking about?"

Shen stopped and waited for a while before Shen Zhilan caught up.

"Aunt, I just think going to the capital is the right decision."

After dealing with the scumbag and the bitch, if she stayed in Su City, Shen Zhilan didn't know how long she would have to wait before she met Jiang Yuzhu, the noble man.

Since her rebirth, even the direction of the court has changed. She clearly remembers that the war in the north has lasted for many years. Because of the death of General Mo, Princess Yutan and Mo Qianyu fought very hard and always guarded the north. Then, a strange fire broke out in the Mo family...

After the palace coup, the emperor fell into trouble and the Queen Dowager Xuan took the opportunity to control the government.

Although there is some uncertainty and fear about the unknown, for Shen Zhilan, it is more of an excitement.

Otherwise, he would have been so depressed in his previous life, how could he have the freedom he has now?

Shen Shi didn't understand the deep meaning of Shen Zhilan's words. She thought she was satisfied with her husband's family, and said in agreement: "It is indeed difficult to find a marriage with the Mo family. The population is simple, the family background is clean, and the emperor values ​​them very much. There are no beautiful women jumping around..."

Most importantly, the Mo family loves their daughter.

Shen discovered that as long as the family loved their daughter, they would not be wrong.

"Aunt, what I mean is that it is a blessing to meet Sister Yuzhu."

Her husband's family is one thing, but Shen Zhilan knows very well that if she can't get over her past life, she won't have the appetite to eat a big pie even if it falls from the sky.

When mentioning Jiang Yuzhu, Shen Shi was not picky about the name Shen Zhilan called her, and smiled with satisfaction: "That's right, I have never met anyone more pleasing than Yuzhu. No wonder the in-laws love their daughter. With such a transparent and caring little cotton jacket, it is not unreasonable to love her more."

"My father-in-law loves his daughter very much. He passed the imperial examinations and became a high-ranking official of the second rank. Yuanhe married a blessed daughter and his official position rose step by step. This was all thanks to Yuzhu!"

What Shen said came from her heart, and she was extremely satisfied with her daughter-in-law.

When the Xie family was facing life and death, Jiang Yuzhu arrived with her men, and the family members did not suffer much.

Moreover, Jiang Yuzhu gave birth to twins, a boy and a girl, for Xie Zhao. Looking throughout the entire Da Qi, there is no one else like her.

"Aunt, you and your niece really think alike!"

When Shen praised Jiang Yuzhu, Shen Zhilan was delighted, even happier than when she herself was praised.

There are so many advantages of Jiang Yuzhu that it would take too long to list them all.

As for the disadvantages...

How could Jiang Yuzhu have any flaws?

Along the way, Shen and Shen Zhilan chatted animatedly and walked very slowly. The servants beside them did not dare to urge them and could only slow down and follow behind them.

There were more than a dozen lanterns hanging in the side hall, and the room was full of people.

When Mr. Guo saw Shen coming, he questioned, "Madam Xie, our Guo family is a merchant family with a low status, but we cannot tolerate being bullied. Shen Tinglan murdered my son, and human life is at stake. Shouldn't you give an explanation?"

Prefect Xie is a member of the Xie family, and the Xie and Shen families are in-laws, so naturally they are biased.

To send them off easily is to take human lives lightly!

Shen sat down with a calm expression.

The maids and old women served tea and water, feeling extremely nervous.

Shen Tinglan knelt on the ground, her eyes were red and swollen from crying, as if she had been stung by a bee, her hair was messy, and she looked very embarrassed.

Hearing the Guo family's accusation, she quickly retorted: "I...I didn't poison Guo Rui!"

"What a joke, who else could it be if not you? Your maid Huamei has already accepted it!"

Huamei is Shen Tinglan's trusted maid, and usually serves in the room.

Huamei came forward to testify, further proving the authenticity of the poisoning.

"You avoided returning to the Shen family just to evade responsibility, didn't you?"

Mr. Guo was furious. Guo Rui was the only child in the family. He originally thought that the Guo family would get an advantage by marrying into the Shen family. However, not only did he not get an advantage, but Guo Rui was also put in a sack and beaten!

The perpetrator has already hinted that it was someone sent by the Shen family to do it.

Although Guo Rui can still be humane, his life force is damaged and he has no offspring. Shen Tinglan got pregnant and had a miscarriage. The Guo family will be childless!

Jiang Yuzhu collected protection money without giving the Guo family any face and wanted to take a large sum of money, but they didn't even have the courage to object.

The more Mr. Guo thought about it, the angrier he got, and his stomach swelled three times.

Chen Tinglan wiped her tears and begged for mercy, "Dad, Guo Rui beat me to the point of miscarriage, and that's the end of our fate. I'm an unfilial daughter, and I can't find a good husband to help the family, but I'm entangled by blood-sucking leeches, which adds to Dad's troubles."

Originally, Master Shen was already furious, but when he heard Shen Tinglan say this, his anger had already shifted to the Guo family, and he secretly hated them for not knowing how to appreciate his kindness.

"Master Guo, now that you've come to my house, how do you want to solve this?"

Guo Rui was not dead, he was just a little weak.

A man who cannot produce children is no different from a waste, and Mr. Shen despises him extremely.

"Humph, my son's life, isn't it a life?"

Mr. Guo thought of what Guo Rui said, there were witnesses and evidence, Shen Tinglan couldn't escape.

No matter how outrageous the conditions proposed by the Guo family were, Mr. Shen had to swallow them for the sake of the Shen family's reputation.

The daughters of the Shen family, including Shen and Shen Zhilan, cannot have their reputation tarnished.

"Daddy, my daughter..."

Shen Tinglan looked around, taking in the expressions of the people from the Guo family, and finally swallowed the words on her lips.

Although she wanted Guo Rui to die, she had no intention of poisoning him.

Poisoning always leaves clues, and she is not stupid.

Guo Rui was poisoned, and his trusted maid betrayed him and testified against Shen Tinglan. It was difficult for him to clear his name.

Right now, the best way is to follow the Guo family's wishes first and then retaliate later!

"Evil girl!"

Mr. Shen sighed. After all, the Shen family was in the wrong. He couldn't make up his mind and hoped that Shen would mediate.

Compared to Master Shen, Shen was much calmer and asked coldly, "Be frank, what are the conditions of the Guo family?"

"Nothing can compare to human life!"

When his thoughts were discovered, Mr. Guo was so angry that he jumped up and down and made a scene. He was right, so what was there to be afraid of?

If the prefect destroyed human life, they would go to the capital to file a complaint.

Shen watched coldly, unmoved, and asked in a serious tone, “Does Mr. Guo mean to make Shen Tinglan pay with her life?”

"That's fine."

Shen agreed casually, and Master Shen trembled. Although he hated Shen Tinglan for causing trouble, he also loved his daughter.

"snort!"

Mr. Guo snorted coldly and said unnaturally, "Why does the Guo family want her life?"

Now that the two families have fallen out, there is no need to continue to tie them together.

Mr. Guo made subsequent plans. Guo Rui and Shen Tinglan divorced first, and after receiving a large sum of money, their whole family moved away from Su City.

Once they leave Sucheng, the Shen family will have no say. With money, they can live a carefree life wherever they want.

Although Guo Rui cannot have children, Mr. Guo is in his prime, so he can still do it!
