Jiang Yuzhu covered her face. She had cheated Lu Yunxi time and time again.
It would have been bad enough if she had just injured him, but she had used some tricks to seize Lu Yunxi's years of hard work. He must have been furious.
"It's all coincidence."
Jiang Yuzhu sighed, she was lucky and everything went so smoothly.
Lu Yunxi took all kinds of precautions, but he never considered the livelihood of his private soldiers.
Jiang Yuzhu used both coaxing and deceiving people to gain their support and build momentum, otherwise life in Sucheng would not be comfortable.
Xie Zhao seemed to be lost in thought. He had no way of refutating this statement.
"Yuzhu, leave it to your husband. Your husband will never allow Lu Yunxi to harm you and Fugui Wanwan in the slightest!"
Doctor Shao mentioned that women tend to be suspicious after giving birth and will secretly cry if things don't go their way. At this time, men must pay more attention and take good care of them to avoid causing them any mental distress during the confinement period.
Jiang Yuzhu didn't care much. After tasting the almond bars made by Aunt Lanhua, she couldn't cheer up: "What is coming will come eventually."
However, she agreed to cut the grass at its roots, because Lu Yunxi was too good at causing trouble and could not be kept.
At dinner time, Shen Zhilan and Zhao Fendie arrived, and Xie Zhao had to retreat to the front yard.
"Sister Yuzhu, my brother-in-law doesn't look very happy. It seems like he doesn't welcome us."
With Jiang Yuzhu's support, Shen Zhilan had long forgotten that Xie Zhao was her cousin. She was no longer as submissive as before and felt like she had turned the tables.
When Jiang Yuzhu was giving birth, Shen Zhilan stayed outside the delivery room, so nervous that her palms were sweaty.
Upon learning that Jiang Yuzhu had given birth safely, Shen Zhilan felt dizzy and fainted due to exhaustion.
"I came to say goodbye."
The Mo family members are all in the capital. After returning to her mother's home for a few months, Mo Qianyu wrote more than a dozen letters to urge her.
Yesterday, the people sent to pick up Shen Zhilan arrived in Sucheng.
"When do you leave?"
Jiang Yuzhu estimated that it would take at least mid-October for her to return to Beijing. If Shen Zhilan had left earlier, she would have already arrived in the capital.
"Just these two days."
The Shen family had already packed Shen Zhilan's luggage and gave her a few more shops as a dowry.
Thinking of the vastly different treatment in the two lives, Shen Zhilan laughed sarcastically and said, "I didn't care about the Shen family's money at first, but then I thought, why should I bother with money?"
If Shen Zhilan doesn't want it, it will be a bargain for others.
Her father is a playboy, and he has many illegitimate sons and daughters in the backyard. I heard that a concubine gave birth to a child a few days ago.
"As for what my father asked, I agreed to it all."
Shen Zhilan sneered. Only by agreeing could her mother live a better life and avoid being harassed by her father.
As for whether to do it or not, it depends on her mood. She plans to take the money and not do the work.
The Shen family is foolish and servile. The Shen family has long lost its former glory and is on a downward slope.
Aunt Shen didn't help, and Shen Zhilan, as a junior, was even more helpless.
"I like it when I take money but don't do anything."
Jiang Yuzhu was very pleased that Shen Zhilan could think clearly, and said encouragingly, "People only live once, why do you have such a strong sense of shame? Who said that as a daughter of the Shen family, you have to help the clan?"
Even if you help, there will always be a bunch of people behind you who are looking for faults and keep complaining.
If you give up this shackle, your life will be much easier. After all, there are only a few sincere people.
"Look at me, I don't have many close sisters."
Upon learning of Wei Jing's death, Jiang Yuzhu was deeply moved. "Isn't Wei Jing a good person? She was also very good to her sisters, but people can't just focus on immediate interests. They should make friends with good people."
Good people are always kind and tolerant.
"Evil people like Wei Jing, who are ruthless and cruel, think they are superior to others. She lowers herself to others simply because she thinks you are useful. She actively befriends you, and then kicks you off when you are no longer useful to her."
"That's all. She'll stand on the moral high ground and accuse you, suppress you, and make you think it's all your fault."
Jiang Yuzhu said a few words, and Shen Zhilan felt more comfortable listening to them.
Only Jiang Yuzhu can untie the knot left over from the previous life.
Every time Shen Zhilan listened to her cousin Xie Zhao preaching, she felt sleepy, but when it came to Jiang Yuzhu, she felt as if she had been enlightened.
"Yuzhu, listening to your words is worth ten years of reading."
When Jiang Yuzhu was preaching, Zhao Fendie was very supportive and wanted to take out her little notebook to write it down.
Inside the room, the three sisters were chatting animatedly. At the door, Hongli opened the curtain and said, "Madam, the Shen family is here to pick someone up. It seems very urgent."
Since arriving in Sucheng, Shen Zhilan has lived in the farm most of the time, and only occasionally returned to the Shen family in the past two days to accompany her mother Gao.
"What happened to my mother?"
Shen Zhilan's face turned pale, and she grabbed the old woman who came to pick her up and asked.
I don’t know if it was because the mother and daughter spoke freely that many of their problems were resolved, and Gao was not as weak as before. When it came to Shen Zhilan’s affairs, Gao was a bit tougher and uncompromising.
"Miss, Madam is fine."
The old woman smiled ingratiatingly.
Shen Zhilan was lucky enough to marry into the home of the General Protector of the Nation. Now Mo Qianyu was one of the great contributors to the pacification of the north and was deeply trusted by the emperor. Who in the Shen family would dare to offend the Gao family?
In the past few days, all the relatives who used to ask for money from me have come and given me gifts.
"What is that?"
It was already this late, and Shen Zhilan came to Jiang Yuzhu, and the Shen family didn't dare to disturb her.
The old woman was a little embarrassed to speak, and after hesitating for a long time, she said vaguely: "You will know when you return home."
Family disgrace should not be made public. This is what the master ordered before I left.
"Okay."
Shen Zhilan got on the carriage and rushed to the Shen Mansion. On the way, she met Shen who was returning to her parents' home.
"Aunt, what happened?"
It must be a big deal if the Shen family is alarmed.
When Xie Zhao returned to Sucheng, the people in the Xie family became extremely active.
There were people who wanted to flatter her, build relationships, and ask for advice. Shen had just finished her work and had not yet had dinner.
"Zhilan, something happened to Tinglan."
The governor of Sucheng is from the Xie family, and Shen learned more details. "Today, the Guo family went to court and sued Shen Tinglan for murdering her husband."
Guo Rui was poisoned and almost died.
The relationship between the two families was average. Shen Tinglan had a miscarriage, and the Guo family couldn't take advantage of it, so they just tore their faces apart and started a quarrel.
"The Guo family wanted to take Shen Tinglan to the government and hand her over to the yamen. Shen Tinglan was frightened and took her maid to hide in her mother's house."
As soon as the man entered the Shen family's gate, the Guo family caught up with him and refused to give in.
This is a matter of life and death, and the two families are arguing.
Mr. Shen couldn't handle the situation alone, so he had to send someone to invite Shen, and at the same time find out what the prefect was thinking.
"Guo Rui was poisoned?"
Shen Zhilan was stunned and remembered something.
In his previous life, Guo Rui had been poisoned and his face turned pale, as if he was about to be buried.
Guo Rui reported the incident to the authorities, claiming that the owner of a competing shop had attacked him.
The boss couldn't explain himself clearly and was suspected, so he had no choice but to kneel down and beg Guo Rui for forgiveness.
Guo Rui opened his mouth wide and wanted to take over his boss's shop.
Once, when he was drunk, Guo Rui said proudly: "The poisoning is real, and I poisoned him myself. If I hadn't framed him, how would I have gotten the shop?"
The shop is secondary. Guo Rui's business is not as good as that of the owner. If this continues, the shop will definitely be squeezed out of business.
