When Ran Xiangyu heard this, she felt a little scared.
What if the officials come and the Shen family drags her into trouble without any regard for her? She is just a merchant with little influence. What will she do then?
Ran Xiangyu hurriedly took out the marriage certificate from her bosom,
"I've brought my marriage certificate with me. I'm breaking up with you today."
Fortunately, this marriage certificate was only made between Shen Yong and her family secretly. Although the Shen family recognized it later, they did so unwillingly.
As long as the two families tear up their marriage certificates, there will be no relationship between them.
Before Ran Xiangyu finished speaking, she tore the marriage certificate into pieces as if she was afraid that Chen Yong would go back on his word.
"Hiss, hiss~"
In an instant, the bumpy ground was covered with fragments of the marriage certificate.
"Where's your copy? Take it out and tear it up."
Ran Xiangyu stared at Shen Yong and urged, "Your Shen family is so strong-willed, you don't really want to rely on my Ran family, right?"
"Your Shen family hasn't given me the betrothal gifts yet, so I don't have to return them."
"However, you owe our Ran family more than ten thousand taels of silver, and you must pay it back to me today."
"I don't ask for much. Since you've been making me happy for so long, just return me ten thousand taels of silver."
That money was her private savings, so she shouldn't refuse it.
Although her father later compensated her tenfold because he saw that she had become attached to the Duke of Protectorate, but now that the Duke of Protectorate has collapsed, there is no guarantee that her father will not ask for the 100,000 taels of silver back.
"Oh!"
Chen Yong sneered, "I wouldn't even want someone like you who's willing to throw himself at me."
"The marriage certificate was torn up a long time ago. I was just teasing you before, but you actually took it seriously."
"There's no money, and there's no people either!"
"Do you think the soil in the Duke of Huguo's mansion is worth money? If you want it, dig it up and take it all. It's definitely enough to bury your Ran family!"
Arguing with him is really humiliating.
He is a loser, with no other skills except his eloquence.
"You..." Ran Xiangyu gnashed her teeth in anger and couldn't help but curse.
"You despicable man, you deserve your Shen family to be raided. You even cheated a woman out of her money. You must die a miserable death..."
"Bitch, I'm going to tear your mouth apart." Lu Man couldn't stand this anymore, so she pulled up her sleeves and rushed over to beat Ran Xiangyu.
Ran Xiangyu was so scared that she hid behind the servant, "I'm afraid of you."
"Come on, beat them to death..."
The servants stood in front of Ran Xiangyu with their fists clenched, looking at Lu Man with a defensive look.
If you ask them to take action, they really don't dare.
The Duke of Huguo's Mansion was overthrown, but the families of these women could kill them with just a flick of their fingers.
"Tsk, let's see who dares to hit me."
Lu Man rushed over, pushed the servant away, and slapped Ran Xiangyu hard in the face.
“Bang!”
Ran Xiangyu's head was hit and tilted to one side, and her whole head was buzzing.
After a while, she turned around and glared at Lu Man angrily, "If you dare to hit me, I will fight you..."
At this time, the servant hurriedly stopped the angry Ran Xiangyu, "Miss, the master of the Lu family is the Minister of War!"
Ran Xiangyu's pupils trembled, and then she remembered that the maiden families of these sisters-in-law like Chen Yong were not simple.
It was all Chen Yong's fault. He made her so angry that she forgot all about it.
Ran Xiangyu covered her aching cheek and glared resentfully at Chen Yong, who was lying on the ground watching the fun.
"You're a loser, you have nothing else to rely on except women..."
"Shut up!" Old Madam Shen interrupted Ran Xiangyu and looked at her coldly, "Get out!"
Ran Xiangyu's mouth twitched in anger, and she fiercely swung her sleeves and turned to walk out, "Who wants to be here? It's unlucky."
After watching Ran Xiangyu leave angrily with a group of servants, the attention of the women of the Shen family turned to Shen Yong again.
"Seventh Brother, is there something important hidden in our house?"
Madam Shen looked at the dirt on the ground and frowned at Shen Yong.
"......" Shen Yong looked at Madam Shen in shock, "What can our family hide? We can't even take out ten thousand taels of silver."
He was sure of this because he searched the entire Huguo Mansion and found no underground secret rooms.
The poor are stable!
Old Madam Shen gave Shen Yong a speechless look. How could this child only have money in his eyes?
"Your Majesty has turned the Shen family's house into such a mess. If there is nothing important to look for, why would he go to such great lengths?"
The women of the Shen family looked at the muddy ground, listened to what Old Madam Shen said, and nodded.
They were all very curious about what the Shen family had that could make Emperor Tianwu come and search for it at night.
Chen Yong lowered his eyelids and slightly pulled the corners of his lips.
The scapegoat is Emperor Tianwu.
It’s not that he had to tear the house down like this, it’s just that these things are very valuable.
A piece of intact bluestone is worth about 50,000 yuan.
Anyone who sees 50,000 yuan dropped on the ground would have to pick it up.
The floor tiles in the palace are even more valuable, starting at 100,000 yuan, and the glazed tiles are even more valuable.
Alas, he is just a poor man who suddenly became rich and can't help but want something.
"I was wondering how I woke up one night and found my house empty..."
"Who cares what he's looking for? After our property is confiscated and we're exiled, we can't take these things with us. Let's do whatever we want."
Chen Yong saw the family staring at the potholes and muddy ground, thinking it was not a good thing, so he changed the subject.
"The sun is already so high in the sky, the officials who are confiscating our property should be here soon."
"When the officials arrive, please help me walk, Third Sister-in-law and Fifth Sister-in-law. I have to pretend to be seriously injured. I'm sorry for the trouble, sisters-in-law."
Among the six sisters-in-law, only the third and fifth sisters-in-law have some mediocre skills and are impetuous in character, so they are more suitable to support him.
Lu Man and Meng Yunfei looked at each other and nodded in unison, "Okay."
"Let's all sit down and rest, save some energy."
Chen Yong looked at his sisters-in-law who had been standing for a long time and asked everyone to sit down and rest.
It won't be long before the officials arrive.
That villain Fan Jinchang definitely won't be able to come, and it's hard to say whether he can wake up at this time.
However, if Fan Jinchang wakes up, he will definitely ask his confidants to come and confiscate the house.
He lost the imperial edict, so he probably didn't dare to say a word and could only quietly let someone do the job.
.......
"master...."
"Wuwu...Master, wake up..."
Mrs. Fan wiped her tears and knelt beside Fan Jinchang, sobbing.
Last night, the master just got home and fell to the ground unconscious due to inexplicable injuries.
The court doctor worked for a long time before he finally stabilized the master's condition.
She was watching over the master and didn't know when she fell asleep.
When I woke up, my house collapsed...
Fan Jinchang frowned. He could hear the sounds around him in his head, but his eyelids were too heavy to lift.
As his mind gradually became clear, a heart-wrenching pain surged from his chest.
Every time he took a breath, he could feel a tearing pain in his chest.
