Chapter 285 Abandoning Ke Yunyun and Her Son
Bilian looked at Cui with tears in her eyes, knelt down and begged, "Master, the Zhu family is determined to divorce you. You can't stay here even if you don't want anything. If you don't want the house given by the Zhu family, we have to go back to the Cui family.
The Cui family is eyeing your dowry! In the past, with the Zhu family around, they didn't dare to go too far. Now without the Zhu family's protection, how can you keep those things?
But it's different with a villa in the city. We can move there secretly without telling the Cui family, settle down in the city, and then go to the government office to transfer your money clearly. By the time the Cui family knows that you have been divorced, it will be too late. As long as you don't want it, the money will not fall into the hands of the Cui family.
Master! You can’t be willful at this time! "
Cui Ruyi clenched her fists unwillingly, tears falling down her cheeks. "Why? Why did the Zhu family treat me like this? I! I am the eldest daughter of the Cui family, but I was suppressed by a mistress. It's ridiculous, really ridiculous!"
Bilian hated him in her heart, but she didn't dare to add fuel to the fire at this time. "Master, a little impatience will ruin a big plan. Even if you want revenge, you can't make trouble at this time. Let's bear it and leave here first, okay?"
Cui Ruyi was finally persuaded by Bilian.
That day, the Zhu family's accountant came over and after carefully checking Cui Ruyi's dowry, he had the boxes sealed and loaded onto a horse-drawn carriage, which was then taken to the villa in the city overnight.
Cui and Bilian also left quietly.
As soon as they left, Mrs. Zhu's worries were mostly resolved. In order to avoid any further complications, she planned to wait for the servants to come back and send Cui's divorce letter to the county government for stamping, and then release the news. The next thing to deal with was Ke Yunyun and her son.
Thinking of the grandson whom she had never met, Mrs. Zhu felt somewhat reluctant to let him go. However, for the future of the Zhu family, she hardened her heart and took people to Dongmen Village in person.
The Wan family was working in the fields, and at that time almost nine out of ten houses in the village were empty.
Mrs. Zhu's arrival made the whole family a little puzzled, and they took time out of their busy schedule to come back and see her.
Mrs. Zhu frowned subconsciously when she saw how embarrassed they were. Her reluctance to part with her grandson faded a little, and she said straight to the point, "I came here to tell you that my son is about to marry a new wife, who is from a wealthy family. For the sake of peace in the family, the Zhu family cannot recognize the identities of Ke's mother and son.
Considering that Ke gave birth to an heir for the Zhu family, our Zhu family will not be too heartless.
Here are 10,000 taels of silver and a house deed and two land deeds, all of which are in Pingzhou outside of Lizhou. They can live in Pingzhou in the future. As long as they never set foot in Lizhou again in this life, the Zhu family can ensure that they will be rich for the rest of their lives. "
Upon hearing this, Su Chunsen's family all looked extremely unhappy.
Wan was even more angry and accused, "Madam Zhu, what exactly are Yunyun and her son in your eyes? Yes, I know that concubines are not presentable, and they have no intention of entering the house. They just follow your arrangements. When they are useful, they are your darlings, and when they are useless, they are discarded like old shoes."
Mrs. Zhu didn't want to continue to tangle with Mrs. Wan, so she put her things down and was about to leave with her people. When she reached the door, she paused again and said, "We will not give Mr. Tang any more salary in the future. You can let Mr. Tang leave."
Mrs. Zhu got on the carriage directly. Mrs. Wan was so angry that she burst into tears. "You all heard it! The Zhu family is so heartless! Woohoo. Why is Yunyun so miserable? I thought..."
She originally thought that even if Ke Yunyun and her son could not return to the Zhu family in the future, they would be recognized by the Zhu family and have a legitimate identity. But after what Mrs. Zhu did today, Wan felt that the world had fallen on Ke Yunyun and her son.
After all, this is the child that their family has watched grow up.
Wan really had no intention of working, so she went to Su Chunlin, talked to Han, and then got on the donkey cart to Shenjiazhuang.
Su Tai was very surprised that Wan came here at this time.
As soon as Wan came in, she pulled Su Tai with red eyes and asked, "Xiao Tai, where is Yunyun? Where are the mother and son?"
"Aunt, don't worry, I'll take you in." Su Tai led Wan to the backyard of the cellar.
When Mrs. Wan saw Ke Yunyun, tears immediately burst out, "Why do you have such a miserable life, child? Woo woo woo"
Ke Yunyun's heart sank, and she subconsciously asked, "Aunt, is there something wrong with the young master?"
Wan cried again, and when she recovered she choked up and said, "He's fine! If it were you, the Zhu family wouldn't want you and your son anymore!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the faces of the people in the yard changed and they all looked at Ke Yunyun worriedly.
Ke Yunyun was stunned for a moment, lowered her eyelids, and was at a loss, "Aunt, what did the Zhu family say?"
Wan told everyone what Madam Zhu said, "The Zhu family has climbed up the social ladder again. Zhu Yixuan's original wife Cui must have been dealt with by the Zhu family, otherwise where would the new bride come from? They can even deal with Zhu Yixuan's first wife, not to mention that Yunyun is just a concubine. The Zhu family has not announced Kang Cheng's existence to the public yet. Now they have turned against us, and we have no place to complain!"
I would like to go to the county and make a big scene, but I’m afraid that I will anger the Zhu family, which will bring disaster to everyone. Ordinary people like us really can’t stand it, wuwuwu.”
Wan thought about it for a long time, and after thinking it over and over again, she found no better way than to persuade Ke Yunyun to accept the arrangement of the Zhu family.
Ke Yunyun hugged Wan distressedly, "Aunt, thank you for thinking about me, but this is not a big deal, there is nothing to cry about."
"Isn't this a big deal? Then what is a big deal?" Mrs. Wan was so anxious that she stared, totally unable to understand Ke Yunyun's calmness.
Ke Yunyun looked at Su Tai with a wry smile, "My cousin mentioned this to me when I was sick before. She was right. Unless Master Zhu dies, my mother and I will be dispensable in the eyes of Master Zhu and Madam Zhu. I don't want Master Zhu to die, but I didn't expect that this day would come so soon.
Auntie, what else did Mrs. Zhu say? "
Wan immediately opened the bundle and carefully opened the box. "Here are 10,000 taels of silver and the property deeds to Pingzhou. Madam Zhu is afraid that you might do something bad, so she wants to send you far away."
The more she talked, the sadder Wan became.
Ke Yunyun smiled, "They are also willing to give me money and houses and land, so I should be content. Aunt, I will accept these things, and I will take Kang Cheng away later. If Madam Zhu sends someone to inquire again, just tell them the truth."
Wan was about to say something but stopped, and finally let out a sigh.
Su Tai stepped forward and said, "Aunt, I'm going to go cook. You can stay here and rest today. I'll go back tomorrow."
Wan waved her hand and turned to leave. "There is still a lot of work to do at home. I can't sit still. If it weren't for Yunyun's incident, I wouldn't want to come out. Xiaotai, you comfort your cousin. I will come to see you after the busy farming season is over."
