Lin Chaonan was like the donkey pushing the millstone. The next day, he packed another half a cart of things and headed straight for the city with two servants.
Yue Jiuyue was worried that Liu would leave before Lin Chaonan could bring Lin Chaodong back from the city. Unexpectedly, that afternoon, two carriages drove into Linjiagou Village one after the other, which surprised the villagers greatly.
I knew Yue Jiuyue's family was wealthy, but I never imagined they were this rich! They've already bought two carriages!
Oh, right, the emperor has already given them who knows how much silver they've given. Being able to afford two carriages isn't anything special. Didn't you see they've already gotten married? You know, getting a proper wife these days is incredibly expensive! Even the village chief's family can't afford it!
This is something that ordinary people like them can only envy!
Even ordinary people can only dream of this!
"Mom! I'm back!"
"Mother, my eldest brother and I are back!"
The two brothers handed the carriage to the servants and entered Yue Jiuyue's courtyard one after the other. Before they even arrived, their voices reached Yue Jiuyue's ears in unison.
Yue Jiuyue, who was secretly eating inside the house: ...
These two came back at the worst possible time!
Yue Jiuyue responded and hurriedly put the lunch boxes back into her space. Then she quickly rinsed her mouth, sprayed some grass-scented air freshener on herself and in the room, wiped her mouth, and went outside.
Yue Jiuyue was so guilty that she didn't have time to think about why the two of them had returned so quickly, especially Lin Chaodong. Had something happened to him?
However, once Yue Jiuyue went outside and saw the Lin brothers, Lin Chaodong and Lin Chaonan, her mind returned to normal, and she directly asked them:
"What's going on with you two? Did you run into each other on the way? Why did the boss suddenly come back?"
It can't be because winter is coming soon that they're coming back early to hibernate, can it?
"Mother, I ran into my elder brother before I even got to the county town."
Lin Chaonan replied.
Lin Chaodong poured himself a bowl of water, and after he finished drinking it, Lin Chaonan finished speaking. He wiped his mouth and said:
"Mother, I'm back to divorce Liu."
Lin Chaodong's voice was calm, and he didn't seem to be acting on impulse.
Yue Jiuyue raised an eyebrow. In ancient times, such a thing as divorce was extremely rare, and no one would go to this point unless absolutely necessary.
So, what exactly happened?
Yue Jiuyue was curious, so she asked directly.
"Actually, it's nothing. I just heard that Liu had signed a contract of servitude before, the kind that's dead. So I went to that family to inquire. They said that important servants like wet nurses can only sign dead contracts, not live contracts. They also said that the children of servants who sign dead contracts will also be servants. So I went to find Liu and we agreed to come back and get a divorce."
I only found out she was back later, so she came back a few days later than Liu. Tomorrow, I'll go to town to find Liu and go directly to the county to get a divorce. It'll just be a hassle for the village chief; I'll have to go to his house later.
Lin Chaodong seems much more mature this time, unlike when he first went to the state capital, when he naively thought that staying there would make him rich.
Unlike when he left last time, he no longer believed that he would eventually make something of himself and have a place in the state capital, so naive and foolish.
Now, he's a grown-up.
