It broke Shen Cang's heart to see his beloved being beaten.

He already loathed Madam Shen, and now he hated her even more.

"Jealous woman! Let go of her now!" Shen Cang tried to pull Madam Shen away so that Jiang Wan would be spared from harm.

But Madam Shen was even angrier when she saw him defending Jiang Wan so fiercely.

"Oh, so you're actually protecting her!"

So she became even more aggressive, scratching and clawing at Jiang Wan.

She was flailing about like a madwoman, and Shen Cang was momentarily unable to control her. He then said to Xiang Lan, who was standing to the side, "You idiot, what are you standing there for? Hurry up and come help!"

"...Yes." The Madman!

Xianglan agreed verbally, but in reality, she did nothing.

She moved around like a crab, taking two steps to the left and two steps to the right, looking completely lost.

The battle was too intense, and Shen Cang couldn't care less whether she was slacking off or not. Seeing that Madam Shen was like a mad dog and wouldn't stop no matter what, Shen Cang decided to fight fire with fire.

He grabbed Madam Shen's hair and finally managed to pull her off Jiang Wan.

He flicked away the stray hairs tangled between his fingers and anxiously helped Jiang Wan up: "Wan Niang, are you alright?"

Jiang Wan's head was buzzing from the beating, and her ears were ringing, so she couldn't hear what Shen Cang was saying at all.

She clutched Shen Cang's hand, crying helplessly, "Husband... sob..."

Her entire face was red and swollen, covered with handprints and crisscrossing scratches. Tears streamed down her face, and she winced in pain, looking utterly disheveled.

Even Shen Cang couldn't stand it anymore.

But when he thought that Madam Shen was the culprit behind all this, he said, "Don't cry, don't cry, your husband will stand up for you. I will make that poisonous woman pay!"

When Madam Shen saw that he had gone so far as to harm her to protect Jiang Wan, and was now saying such things, the anger in her heart was instantly directed not only at Jiang Wan but also at her.

Since he disregards her father's feelings, why should she still care about sharing a bed with him?

Since he insists on protecting her, then let's just not have anything at all!

"I'll fight you adulterers!" With that, Madam Shen used all her strength to headbutt Shen Cang, nearly knocking out the food he had just eaten.

He stumbled back several steps but couldn't regain his balance, finally falling flat on his back, landing on a potted cactus under the window. The pain made him jump up high.

When people outside heard that a fight had broken out inside, they pushed even harder, managing to force the door open!

Everyone burst into laughter at the sight.

At this point, Shen Cang's reason was also exhausted.

"You crazy woman, I'm going to divorce you today!"

"You..." Madam Shen was shocked. She never expected that Shen Cang would even say the words "divorce his wife": "Fine, fine, you want to divorce me so you can marry her, right?"

After saying that, the couple started fighting.

Jiang Wan kept her distance and didn't dare to approach at all.

Madam Shen's pent-up grievances and resentments over the years were no laughing matter when they finally erupted. Therefore, even when facing a man taller than herself, she did not lose her ground.

The fight was raging inside the courtyard, and the people outside weren't idle either.

A group of people were discussing it animatedly.

"Keeping a mistress may not be illegal or against propriety, but it's still not a good thing to talk about. Why is Master Shen so blind to this?"

"Brother, look at how fierce and jealous Madam Shen is. She's even come to our door to fight. If you were in her shoes, would you dare to say anything?"

Another person nearby said, "No matter what, you shouldn't hit someone."

"It's one thing to hit someone, but it's another woman. And to make matters worse, it's your own wife. But look at your pathetic state. You probably haven't even won the fight yet."

"Huh? Why do I feel like I've said that before?"

"Oh dear, wasn't it just that the second young master of the Shen family lost a bet at Qing Tong Academy last time and got so angry that he wanted to beat up Doctor Er Ya? And the time before that, the eldest young master of the Shen family fought with the third young lady of the Shen family at Dong Yue Tower. We went to watch those together, didn't we?" His companion craned his neck to look into the courtyard as he helped him recall.

Shen Qiyin was some distance from the courtyard, and there were many people in front of the gate, so she didn't actually see what kind of "spectacle" was inside. But just listening to the discussions of the onlookers was enough for her to imagine.

I had just returned from delivering the news on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year. Standing beside her, I couldn't help but glance at her again and again.

well……

What kind of parents must they be to let their daughter watch them fight like this without any reaction?

But the calmer she was, the more sorrowful she became.

Chu Si originally thought that her young master had already been very good to Miss Shen.

He supported her, sent himself to protect her, went to the palace to get pastries from the imperial kitchen for her, gave her Condensed Jade Dew, prepared charcoal for the winter, and even secretly added money to help her buy a house.

However, it seems that there are still shortcomings.

The prince wanted to treat her even better, better enough to make up for the lack of love and favor she received from her family. It seemed that only in that way could he say he was in love with her.

Shen Xiyin sensed someone watching her out of the corner of her eye. When she turned to look, it was the fourth day of the lunar month.

The boy, with his rosy lips and white teeth, had tears welling up in his eyes. I felt sorry for him and covered my mouth, looking like he was about to cry.

"What's wrong with you?" Shen Qiyin was caught off guard by your sudden outburst.

On the fourth day, Chu raised his arm, wiped his face with his sleeve, and then looked at Chen Qiyin firmly, saying, "Girl, you must believe that after the clouds clear, the moon will shine brightly, and your good days are coming!"

"...Oh." What does that mean?
