"I really don't know how to thank you. If you hadn't persuaded me, I would still be stubborn and still want to die. Then my relatives would hate me and my enemies would be happy. This is the only way I can live my life."
Ming Rulan was grateful, but there was a hint of helplessness in her voice. If He Dongming hadn't been so cruel and betrayed their friendship for that woman, she wouldn't have fallen into such a state.
Jiang Xueying gently patted her shoulder and whispered, "Sister Ming, don't think too much. It's better to wait until Madam Ming comes before making plans. You still have a lot of things to do next. Eat something later and we will come again tomorrow. Also, don't make this public in advance. We have plenty of opportunities and we must make them pay the price."
Moreover, she was now afraid that if the prefect knew their plan, he would cause trouble.
There is nothing such heartless people can't do, so they have to make arrangements first, step by step, and catch them off guard.
Ming Rulan nodded repeatedly, indicating that she would listen to her. Now they were the only ones she could rely on. As long as there was a solution, she was willing to try it.
Early the next morning, Madam Ming came with her people.
After reading the letter, she was almost angry to death. He Dongming was simply not a human being. He actually did such a heartless thing as favoring a concubine and ignoring his wife. He didn't even care about his own reputation. It was obvious that he had no sense of shame. Is such a person worthy of being the governor of Kyoto?
When she arrived at the yard and looked at the devastated scene inside, and then saw her daughter Ming Rulan's face which was so pale that it was completely bloodless, she couldn't help but take a deep breath, and her heart tightened.
Madam Ming stepped forward quickly, hugged Ming Rulan, and said with red eyes: "My son, you...you have suffered."
"Mom, I really can't live like this anymore."
When Ming Rulan looked at her mother, all the grievances she had suffered during this period suddenly came to her mind. She couldn't help but cry. Then she slowly told her about the suffering she had endured.
After listening to her daughter's words, Mrs. Ming was so angry that her body was shaking. She slammed the table hard, her brows showing uncontrollable anger. She was angry at her daughter for disregarding her parents' orders for a small soldier. Now that her daughter was not living a good life, she felt very heartbroken.
"This bastard actually dared to do this to you. Now that it has come to this, you might as well pack up your things and come back with me. Don't ever go to the He Mansion again. We will support you for the rest of your life."
"no!"
Ming Rulan slowly shook her head and said in embarrassment, "Mom, if I go back like this, Dad won't be happy."
In order to marry He Dongming, she had an argument with Mr. Ming and even said some bad things. If she went back now, especially after such an incident, she would definitely make him angry.
"Hey, Lan'er, why are you happy or unhappy? You are his daughter. You have suffered so much injustice and hardship this time. Does he, as a father, still want to beat you? Don't worry, I am here, your father will never be angry."
Mrs. Ming disagreed. In her opinion, the most important thing now was to take her daughter back home. Her master would be angry for a few days and then it would be over. He would not let his daughter be bullied outside, right?
But Ming Rulan knew her father's temper very well, and it was she who insisted on getting married despite her father's dissuasion. She still wanted to wait until her father calmed down before going back, otherwise she would be too ashamed to see him.
Moreover, the most important thing now is to deal with her own family affairs. Anyway, she has made up her mind to divorce He Dongming. Otherwise, with that woman around, she will never be able to live in peace even if she goes back.
Instead of this, it’s better to end it as soon as possible.
Jiang Xueying also advised: "If we go back now, Master Ming will be even angrier. Why don't you go back and talk to him properly, let Master Ming understand what's going on first, and then come back to pick him up after you've dealt with Sister Ming's affairs."
"Yes, Miss Jiang is right. I took it for granted. There are still many things that have not been resolved. It is not appropriate to go back now. Then wait until I go back and persuade her."
Mrs. Ming said this as she gently patted the back of her daughter's hand and sighed.
"In the end, this is not your fault. At the beginning, you only knew his appearance but not his heart. Who knew he would be such a person? It's just that you will suffer even more."
After comforting Ming Rulan with a few words, Mrs. Ming decided to go back home to help.
With the help of Madam Ming, the matter was finally settled. Jiang Xueying and the others breathed a sigh of relief and discussed what to do next.
"Sister Ming, then you wait for news from Madam Ming, we will go first."
Jiang Xueying is also a busy person. Now that they have just arrived in Beijing, they have to prepare for the decoration of the restaurant, and recruit people, etc. Fortunately, she has opened a restaurant once before, so she has some experience and can follow the previous way.
Afraid that she couldn't handle it alone, Chen Simin naturally came to assist her.
Jiang Xueying took a break from her busy schedule and joked with a smile, "Simin, you and Suining Xin are newlyweds after all, why should I bother you to accompany me to do these things?"
"Sister Jiang, do we still need to say this? Besides, this restaurant is the result of our hard work. How can I let you toil alone? Besides, he just got a job recently and is busy with work all day long. He rarely stays at home. If you hadn't been with me, I would have been bored to death."
Chen Simin was somewhat thankful that she had successfully persuaded Jiang Xueying to come to Beijing, otherwise she would have been bored here alone. After all, she was unfamiliar with the place and was afraid of getting lost if she went out. More importantly, she and these Beijing socialites were simply not from the same world. She felt suffocated when talking at gatherings on weekdays. How could she be as free and easy as when she was with Jiang Xueying?
In fact, Suining Xin also knew that she was busy with the restaurant business, and not only did he not stop her, he even encouraged her.
"You can learn more from Miss Jiang when you have time. She knows a lot. In my opinion, she knows more than those teachers."
That's true.
Chen Simin had long felt that Jiang Xueying had always been different from the others. Her mind was filled with many novel ideas, most of which she had never heard of before. They were both fresh and interesting.
Now that she is following behind her to help, she can learn a little.
It’s not that she also intends to open a restaurant, but she wants to learn her way of doing things, her ability to be quick-witted and to respond to changes, and the many fresh and unprecedented ideas.
The two of them worked hard for a while and finally got everything ready. After all, they had the experience of opening a store before, so this time things went very smoothly, and the opening date was quickly set on August 15th.
It is a full moon day and an auspicious day, which is truly the best choice.
