"...Mom!" Lu Man stepped out of the yard, looked at the familiar pond at the gate, grinned and shouted,
"Come and see, isn't this our yard?"
"Isn't this the pond outside my mother's yard? And that pavilion, except for the lack of a roof, they're in the same location. And that flower bed over there..."
Lu Man pointed to the familiar places one by one.
Everyone followed Lu Man's instructions and looked over one by one.
After looking around, everyone fell into silence.
After all this time, they hadn't moved anywhere and were still in the Duke of Protectorate's Mansion.
There was no one they knew who could save them.
The sisters-in-law looked at each other, their mouths twitched a few times, and they all started to speak sweetly.
"Do you have any morals at all? You raided our house while we were sleeping..."
"It's a mean act, it's something a human being can do..."
"Is Emperor Tianwu seriously ill?"
"If you want to confiscate the house, you can confiscate it. You don't want to demolish it, right?"
"Oh my god, they're planning to demolish the Duke of the Protectorate's Mansion and reclaim land for farming..."
"There's no one in the entire capital who is more honest than our Duke of the Guards. As for digging deep underground to find something..."
“.......”
Everyone looked at the courtyard of the Duke of Protectorate's Mansion as if it had been plowed, and their anger was rising.
Old Madam Shen gritted her teeth and frowned as she listened to the noises of her daughters-in-law.
The fact that Emperor Tianwu went to such great lengths to do this shows that the Duke of Huguo's Mansion has something that Emperor Tianwu really needs.
However, she really couldn't figure out what else the Duke of Huguo's Mansion could have that would be worth Emperor Tianwu's effort.
Anyway, the entire Huguo Mansion has been confiscated and exiled, so they will all leave the Huguo Mansion today.
By then, the house will be at the disposal of Emperor Tianwu, so why are you so impatient...
"Oh no! Could it be that my seventh brother has been captured by the Emperor?"
Lu Man yelled and cursed for a long time, and suddenly remembered that her seventh brother was still alone in the room.
They are all awake, but why is Seventh Brother still not moving?
When everyone heard this, they immediately shut their mouths and widened their eyes in horror.
Old Madam Shen's face became visibly flustered.
Chen Yong is now the backbone of this group of women. If...
Madam Shen couldn't imagine it, she said nothing and walked towards Shen Yong's yard.
The sisters-in-law all followed Mrs. Shen nervously, walking quickly towards Shen Yong's residence.
Shen Yong's yard is closest to Old Madam Shen's yard, with a small garden between them.
If it were usual, they could reach Chen Yong's yard in a cup of tea.
But now, he couldn't walk that fast because all the floor tiles in the Duke of Protector's Mansion had been lifted up, leaving it full of potholes.
If you walk a little faster, you will easily step into a pit and trip.
Several people walked to the gate of Chen Yong's yard, one step deep and one step shallow.
Before they entered Chen Yong's yard, they heard a noise coming from not far away.
"Oh my, what's going on? Did they confiscate the house and the land as well? It's so hard to get around..."
A woman in a green dress, holding up the hem of her skirt, looked at the rolling mud on the ground with disgust.
If she had known that the Shen family yard would become such a mess, she would not have come.
Lu Man frowned and looked over, then sneered,
"I was wondering who it was. Turns out it was Lao Qi's fiancée..."
"What is she doing here?" Meng Yunfei rolled her eyes in annoyance.
She has never liked her fiancée, Lao Qi.
It’s not that she looked down on the daughter of a merchant family, but that Ran Xiangyu was too arrogant.
They were quite polite to the Shen family, but when it came to other people, their faces were just...
I don’t know why Lao Qi fell in love with such a woman in the first place.
"Given her character, what else can she do besides kick someone when they're down..."
Lu Man curled her lips in disdain and watched Ran Xiangyu and a group of servants walking towards them at a snail's pace.
Madam Shen glanced at Ran Xiangyu and her group, then walked towards Shen Yong's yard.
She didn't have the time to care about these outsiders. The most important thing was to see her son first.
She didn't even need to ask, she knew at a glance that the Ran family was here to cancel the engagement. She had seen the expressions of her in-laws yesterday, so she didn't care about having another Ran family member.
Businessmen value profit the most. Since the Shen family has no profit and the Ran family has something to gain, they will naturally give it up.
Lu Man rolled her eyes in the direction of Ran Xiangyu, turned around and followed Old Madam Shen towards Shen Yong's room.
Cheng Suihua and her sisters-in-law were in no mood to wait for Ran Xiangyu. They all followed Lu Man and hurried to see Chen Yong.
According to the ability Shen Yong showed yesterday, he should have woken up long ago with such a big commotion when his house was demolished.
There has been no movement for so long, could something have happened?
"Seventh Brother!"
Old Madam Shen walked into Shen Yong's room with one foot deep and one foot shallow.
I couldn't help but curse Emperor Tianwu in my heart: The pit is so deep, are you going to bury him?
We might as well just treat the Duke of Huguo's Mansion as the royal cemetery, otherwise it would be a waste of time to dig so deep.
"Seventh Brother~"
Old Madam Shen panicked when she saw Shen Yong lying motionless on the pothole with a bloody shirt on.
She stumbled over to Shen Yong and reached out to feel his breath.
The moment she felt Shen Yong's breath, Madam Shen breathed a sigh of relief.
"Wake up, Old Seven, wake up~"
Madam Shen pushed Shen Yong and called out twice.
"Mom, is my seventh brother okay?"
Lu Man rushed in with a frown on her face. Seeing Chen Yong's unresponsive expression, her voice trembled a little.
