Feng Jinyuan was furious - "Bitch!" The thing he hated most in his life was that someone mentioned the help the Shen family gave to the Feng family in front of him. Although it was true, and he couldn't change the situation in three to five years. But the facts were the facts, and it was not so nice to put them on the table. The left prime minister had to rely on a woman to support him, what kind of words were these?
"You vicious woman!" Feng Jinyuan took the cloak from the servant and wrapped herself up, then turned around and walked to the table to pick up the bowl that was filled with only the base of the medicine left. "You secretly sent a little girl to deliver this kind of stuff, and now that something has happened, you dare to scold me? What use do I have for a mistress like you?"
"If you have the guts, then divorce me!" Shen was not afraid of this. "Feng Jinyuan, you ungrateful bastard, if you have the guts, then divorce me. If you don't, I will divorce you! I will break off all ties with you!"
Feng Chenyu was shocked, "Mother, don't talk nonsense!"
When Feng Yuheng heard the word "he li", she realized that it was almost the same as divorce in ancient times, but she didn't expect that divorce really existed in this era. But she didn't understand the concept of "jue yi". Seeing Chenyu's nervous look, she tilted her head and asked Wangchuan in a low voice: "What is the difference between he li and yi jue?"
Wang Chuan also explained to her in a low voice: "The so-called peaceful divorce emphasizes harmony. The husband and wife voluntarily separate without hurting each other's relationship. From then on, the man and the woman have nothing to do with each other's marriage. The Dashun system is also relatively tolerant of women who are divorced peacefully, so they will not be criticized to the point of being unable to live. There is also divorce under the peaceful divorce..."
Feng Yuheng nodded: "I understand about divorcing a wife."
Wang Chuan did not explain further and continued to talk about the righteous divorce: "The righteous divorce is enforced by the government. The reason is that if one of the spouses commits one of the seven crimes of divorce, or if one of the relatives of the other party beats, scolds, kills, injures, or commits adultery against the relatives of the other party, the couple will be deemed to have severed their righteous relationship. Regardless of whether both parties agree or not, the government will judge and force them to divorce."
Feng Yuheng nodded. It turned out that the righteous separation was so serious. No wonder Chenyu was so nervous when she heard Shen Shi shout those two words. If Shen Shi really broke off the righteous separation with Feng Jinyuan, I'm afraid she would have almost no way to survive in such an era. It's hard to hear what Feng Jinyuan did, but she didn't violate the Dashun system. It's normal for a master to take in a maid.
But Shen didn't think so - "I'm not talking nonsense!" She climbed down from Jin Zhen, grabbed the corner of Feng Jinyuan's clothes, and slapped him. Although Feng Jinyuan dodged the slap, he was still scratched by Shen's long nails, and a blood mark instantly appeared on his face.
"Master!" Han, who was always the most perceptive and considerate, rushed forward first, regardless of whether Shen was still angry or not. In her opinion, Feng Jinyuan was her only supporter, especially in this situation, the more considerate and generous she was, the more she could win the man's heart. "Master, are you okay?" Han's eyes were filled with tears, and she took out a handkerchief to cover Feng Jinyuan's wound.
When the old lady saw her son being beaten by his wife, she was so shocked that she didn't know what to say. She had lived for half her life, and this was the first time she had seen such a scene. Which woman dared to hit a man? Was this Shen a beast?
Yes, it must be a beast!
The old lady spoke whatever came to her mind and shouted, "Beast!" She cursed so much that Shen trembled all over.
"Who are you scolding?" Shen's eyes turned red. She really wanted to beat this whole family to death with sticks, leaving no one alive except her Chenyu.
"I'm scolding you!" The old lady swung her cane and hit Shen, "You beast! This is the first time I've seen a beast like you in my life!"
Shen grabbed the scepter and said, "This is all your son's fault!"
Aunt Zhao was afraid that if Shen got excited, she would wield the scepter, and the old lady would not be able to bear it, so she hurried forward to hold it with her hand, and kindly advised: "Madam, please stop talking!"
"Get out of my way!" Shen was about to kick Madam Zhao, but suddenly her eyes blurred and she felt a breeze blowing past her. Then her foot was hit by something. She lost her balance and fell to the ground. Because she was so round, she bounced twice.
Chenyu hurried over to help, and Zhao Ma Ma was so frightened that she could see clearly that it was the second young lady Feng Yuheng who had approached them at some point. She stretched out her two thin little arms and held the two old ladies steadily.
"Grandma, be careful."
Old Madam Feng cast a grateful look at Feng Yuheng, "Good boy." Then she pointed at Shen: "What good thing did my son do?" Then she pointed at Jin Zhen: "This is the maid in your room! Open your dog eyes and look carefully, this is the maid in your own room!"
This was the truth. Shen was so blocked that she didn't know what to say. She was angry but had no place to vent, so she turned around and went to beat Jin Zhen again.
Jin Zhen was already frightened. She thought Shen would go crazy, but she didn't expect her to be so crazy. She couldn't help but look to Feng Jinyuan for help.
Feng Jinyuan was being supported by Han at this moment. Because the effect of the drug had just worn off, beads of sweat kept dripping from his forehead. Han wiped his sweat one by one. Seeing Feng Jinyuan's eyes full of pity for Jin Zhen, her heart twitched again. But she was a concubine, and she knew that she absolutely could not be like Shen in this situation, so she quickly ordered the maid beside her: "Quick, help Miss Jin Zhen away."
The maid was very nimble and she grabbed Jin Zhen and moved to the side. Shen missed her and jumped around the room in anger.
Chenyu was almost crying, and kept persuading: "Mother, please calm down, mother, you must calm down!"
Feng Yuheng came here with the attitude of watching a show, so he didn't notice anything, but he just scared Fen Dai and Xiang Rong.
How could two little kids stand such a thing? An thought for a moment and quickly said to the old lady, "I will take the third and fourth young ladies away first."
The old lady nodded approvingly. This scene really shouldn't be seen by two inexperienced little girls, so she said, "Take them back quickly and ask the kitchen to make some calming soup."
An bowed and left with Xiangrong and Fendai. Before leaving, she glanced at Feng Yuheng with worry in her eyes.
Feng Yuheng shook her head slightly at her, watched An and the other two leave, then walked a few steps into the house, came to Shen, and said with a worried look on her face: "Did mother forget about this after she finished boiling the medicine? Otherwise, why did she sit in grandmother's room all the time and not come to father?" As she spoke, she lowered her head slightly and blushed.
Shen gritted her teeth, looking at Feng Yuheng with a look that seemed to spit fire.
"Oh, right!" Feng Yuheng seemed to remember something and said, "It's all the fault of the girl who delivered the medicine. She mistakenly sent such a tonic soup to us for Zirui to drink."
The old lady shuddered, and felt her back soaked with sweat. "What kind of medicine is that?"
Feng Yuheng replied: "My granddaughter saw it when she was in Liuyuan. It is a tonic soup."
The old lady was worried: "Ah Heng, you are familiar with medical knowledge, take a closer look."
Feng Yuheng responded and walked forward to take the bowl from Feng Jinyuan's hand, but Shen suddenly exploded again and rushed forward to knock the bowl to the ground. The only remaining medicine soup was also spilled, and nothing could be seen.
"A tonic is just a tonic! What's there to see? Who among them hasn't sent such medicine to the master?" Shen stared at Han, making her feel frightened.
Feng Yuheng ignored her, took two steps forward, bowed to Feng Jinyuan, and said, "Please lend me your wrist."
After saying that, without waiting for Feng Jinyuan's consent, he stretched out his hand to grab his wrist. After a moment, he let go and said thankfully: "Fortunately, it's only one bowl. If he drank a little more, my father's life would be in danger!"
Everyone was stunned. The old lady asked, "What kind of medicine is this?"
She turned around and said to the old lady, "It's a yang-boosting medicine specially for men, and it's strong and the dosage is very high." After that, she said worriedly, "If Zirui drank it, his life would have been gone long ago."
Bang!
Feng Jinyuan slapped Shen fiercely, but he was still not satisfied, so he slapped her back and forth a few times until Shen Yu knelt down and begged him to stop, and then he stopped.
"Poisonous woman!" Feng Jinyuan once again defined Shen as such.
Chenyu didn't have time to care about Shen anymore. She felt that if she stood on Shen's side again, her father would probably dislike her.
Chenyu, who has always been well-versed in this field, was very good at dealing with emergencies. She just shrank to the ground, hugged her knees with her arms, buried her head in her knees, and her shoulders twitched. She looked so pitiful.
Feng Jinyuan couldn't bear to see Chenyu like this, so he pointed at Chenyu and said to Shen: "Why don't you think about Chenyu before you do anything or say anything?"
One sentence woke Shen up.
Shen was also afraid. She thought about how she had been clamoring for a divorce and a righteous separation. If Feng Jinyuan really agreed, what would happen to her Chenyu? She was still counting on her wealth and glory in the future! She couldn't let her grievances ruin the life of Chenyu, the mother of a country.
Seeing that Shen stopped shouting, Feng Yuheng took the initiative to go forward to help Chenyu. When Chenyu looked up and saw that it was Feng Yuheng, a dark look appeared in her eyes, but then she thought of something and said to the old lady: "Grandma, this is strange. There must be something wrong with the doctor who boiled the medicine."
She put the blame on Doctor Xu, because when she heard Feng Yuheng talking about Doctor Xu in Shuya Garden before, she knew that something must have happened, and she privately sent a maid to inform Doctor Xu to leave the house quickly. Now that person must have run away, it was just the right time to divert the blame.
Feng Yuheng nodded after hearing her say this: "Big sister is right, this amount of medicine is almost considered poison. Father is the victim, I hope mother will understand."
Chenyu stood up, walked closer to Shen, and advised: "Yes, there must be something wrong with the doctor, mother, please don't blame father."
"Hmph!" Feng Jinyuan groaned.
Then Feng Yuheng said to himself again, "But it's strange, how did Miss Jin Zhen know that the medicine was delivered to the wrong person?"
When Jin Zhen heard Feng Chenyu pushing the blame onto Doctor Xu, she knew that Doctor Xu must no longer be in the mansion, otherwise the always strict eldest lady would not have said such a thing.
Since the person had already run away, Jin Zhen no longer had any concerns and quickly replied, "It was the maid from the guest house who came to Jinyu Courtyard to find me and told me that the medicine was delivered to the wrong person." Then she said to Feng Yuheng, "Madame Sun from Liuyuan can testify to this!"
Feng Yuheng smiled and nodded without saying anything.
She had no intention of making things too difficult for Jin Zhen. Keeping this girl around would make things difficult for Shen Shi at any time. It was a pleasant thing to think about. Moreover, she had the leverage in her hands, so she was not afraid of Jin Zhen's rebellion.
"Then let's go to the guest house and call Doctor Xu!" Feng Yuheng looked at Feng Jinyuan, "Father has really suffered."
Feng Jinyuan nodded and glanced at Shen, his eyes full of annoyance.
The old lady said, "Go and bring Doctor Xu to Songyuan!"
