Chapter 64 Paying for Life

Shen Changze stared at Jiang Shu fiercely and said with gritted teeth: "Don't go too far."

"If you think it's too much, you don't have to force it." Jiang Shu was calm and composed, not afraid at all, and did not retreat at all.

Shen Changze had never seen such a tough Jiang Shu, and was a little surprised.

After a stalemate, seeing that Jiang Shu did not intend to give in, Shen Changze compromised: "I can give you the divorce letter first, but Snowball is just a dog who knows nothing. Can you let it go?"

Jiang Shu sneered: "I didn't ask Shen Qingrong to pay for my life, which is reasonable."

Although Snowball was not the culprit, it was a fact that he bit to death. If he continued to be raised by Shen's mother, he would become a vicious dog.

So Jiang Shu planned to find another owner to train it. Of course, the main reason why she insisted on getting Snowball was to teach the Marquis's Mansion a lesson, and to vent her anger for herself and Bubai.

As for Shen Qingrong, Jiang Shu knew that it was an impossible delusion to ask her to pay for a rabbit's life, so she gave Shen Qingrong another lesson.

"A dog is more important than the eldest son of the Marquis's Mansion, do you still need to think about it?" Jiang Shu sneered coldly.

Shen Changze looked at Jiang Shu deeply, turned around and left.

When Shen's mother learned that Jiang Shu insisted on getting Snowball, she hugged Snowball and refused to let go.

Snowball is indeed just a dog, but it has been with Shen's mother for many years. To Shen's mother, it is like a child and a relative, and it is difficult to give up.

"Mother, this is the only chance to save Yan Yang." Shen Changze frowned and advised.

Mother Shen said angrily with red eyes: "Why does she want to kill Snowball? If Snowball dies, her rabbit will not survive."

Shen Changze remained silent.

Originally, he did not understand why Jiang Shu wanted Snowball to pay with his life, but after seeing how reluctant Mother Shen was to protect Snowball, he understood.

Because he understood, he knew that there was no room for negotiation.

Snowball must die.

"Jinchu is injured and may not be able to get pregnant again. Yanyang is the only legitimate son of the Marquis's mansion." Shen Changze moved her with emotion and reason.

After hearing this, Mother Shen finally let Snowball go, stroked Snowball's hair and said: "Let it die more happily and with less pain."

Snowball did not understand anything, stretched out his tongue and licked Mother Shen's hand happily.

Mother Shen choked with tears, took a last look at Snowball, and cruelly went into the house and closed the door.

Snowball tried to chase after him and break the door, but was stabbed to death by Shen Changze.

He died instantly, without any pain.

Shen Changze stepped forward, picked up Snowball's body and went to Tingzhu Tower.

Jiang Shu had changed his clothes and dressed neatly, drinking tea and waiting patiently.

Not long after, Shen Changze came with Snowball's body.

Jiang Shu took a glance and his face changed in shock: "Did you kill Snowball?"

Snowball's head drooped lifelessly, his limbs were limp, and his snow-white hair was stained with bright red blood. It was obvious that he was dead.

Shen Changze thought Jiang Shu was dissatisfied, and frowned and said, "It's just a dog."

Jiang Shu knew he was wrong, but Snowball was already dead, and anything he said at this time would seem false, so he was too lazy to explain, and turned to ask Shen Changze, "Where is the divorce letter?"

Shen Changze took out a thin piece of paper from his arms and handed it to Jiang Shu for review.

Jiang Shu looked at it carefully, not missing a word.

Finally, seeing that Shen Changze had signed his name and stamped his seal, Jiang Shu raised the corners of his lips with satisfaction.

"Chu Yu, have someone prepare a car to go to the Pingxi General's Mansion."

Jiang Shu said, and carefully folded the divorce letter and put it away.

Shen Changze was worried and said, "What if you accept the divorce letter but don't ask Madam Zhuang to withdraw the charge?"

Then he would really lose both his wife and his troops.

Jiang Shu raised her eyebrows slightly, and said indifferently: "Since I promised, I will do my best, but Madam Zhuang has no relatives or friends with me after all, so I can only do my best and leave it to fate." Jiang

Shu's words made sense, and Shen Changze had no way to refute, so he could only wait anxiously.

After preparing the car, Chu Yu took the gift box that Jiang Shu had asked her to prepare early in the morning and went to the Pingxi General's Mansion with her.

This matter involved Madam Zhuang, so Jiang Shu naturally had to prepare a generous gift for Madam Zhuang. I heard that Madam Zhuang believed in Guanyin, and Jiang Shu happened to have a jade Guanyin in good quality.

As for Yu Lan, Jiang Shu gave her a pair of Dongzhu earrings instead, and Yu Lan was very happy when she saw them.

"Actually, you don't have to give such a big gift." Yu Lan said, but he put the earrings away in his hand.

Although she was a princess and had seen many good things, it was hard not to love such exquisite Dongzhu earrings.

Jiang Shu just smiled and said nothing, looking at the brocade box held by Chu Yu, "I want to go and pay a visit to Old Madam Zhuang."

"Of course, she has made a lot of efforts in this matter, and now she is still in the dark." Yu Lan smiled with a guilty conscience.

Jiang Shu widened her eyes, shocked by Yu Lan's audacity.

Jiang Shu didn't dare to think about what Old Madam Zhuang would do after knowing the truth.

Seeing her worry, Yu Lan comforted her, "It's okay, at most she will scold me a few words, it won't hurt or itch."

Jiang Shu was nervous all the way, but Yu Lan acted as if nothing had happened. It seemed that this was not the first time he had done this.

Old Madam Zhuang had enshrined a statue of Guanyin in her house, and was reciting the Guanyin Sutra in front of it.

After hearing the servant's report, she stood up from the statue and walked steadily to the main hall.

"Hello, old madam." Jiang Shu bowed respectfully.

Old Madam Zhuang glanced at her and said, "Sit down."

Jiang Shu and Yu Lan sat down politely.

"Why did you come to see an old woman like me?" Old Madam Zhuang asked knowingly.

Jiang Shu stood up and looked at the stern-looking Madam Zhuang at the top, pursed his lips and said, "I want to ask Madam Zhuang to withdraw the accusation and let Shen Yanyang go."

Madam Zhuang snorted coldly, "Let him go. He can't beat me whenever he wants."

"Since you have done something wrong, you should pay the price. There is no room for negotiation on this matter."

"Mother." Yu Lan stood up and said, "In fact, Yan'er only has superficial injuries, and his head is not injured, and it will not affect his studies."

When Madam Zhuang heard this, she slammed the table in anger: "You are the mother of Yan'er. You can even say such a deceitful thing just to help an outsider. How can you have a clear conscience!"

Yu Lan looked embarrassed and said with a stiff face: "I didn't lie to you. Yan'er is really just a superficial wound. If you don't believe it, you can go and see it yourself."

Madam Zhuang naturally didn't believe it.

It was about Zhuang Yan, so Madam Zhuang didn't dare to be careless at all and had to verify it herself.

So the three of them went to Zhuang Yan's courtyard together.

"Yan'er." Madam Zhuang stepped into the room and saw Zhuang Yan sitting on the couch playing the nine-linked ring.

It was given to him by Jiang Shufang, and Zhuang Yan was very curious.

Doctor Chen was sorting out the medicines on the side, preparing to change the medicine for Zhuang Yan.

"Grandma." Zhuang Yin called out in a bright voice, full of energy and spirit.

Old Madam Zhuang walked over and asked him, "Do you feel dizzy or painful in your head?"

Zhuang Yin shook his head, "No, it doesn't hurt much."

Old Madam Zhuang was still worried and asked Doctor Chen again.

Doctor Chen glanced at Yu Lan, and when Yu Lan nodded, he told her the truth.

"The young master only had a superficial wound, the wound is not deep and did not touch the head, so it won't have any impact, old madam, don't worry."

It happened to be time to change the medicine, so Doctor Chen simply removed the cotton cloth on Zhuang Yin's head and let Old Madam Zhuang check it in person.

Zhuang Yin only had a superficial wound, and Doctor Chen used the best medicine in the palace, and the scab had formed in two days.

Judging from the size of the scab, the wound is not deep or long, and it will be able to recover in a short time.

Old Madam Zhuang was relieved, and angrily asked Yu Lan why he had lied to her before, causing her to worry and feel sad, and even went to the palace to complain.

Yu Lan cleared her throat and said, "Mother, let Doctor Chen change the dressing for Yu'er, and we will talk about it somewhere else."

"Humph!" Old Madam Zhuang flicked her sleeves and walked back to her yard.

Yu Lan and Jiang Shu hurried to catch up.
