Chapter 547: Shen Zhu is in trouble
Shen Zhang was exposed by Shen Zi'an in front of Shen Ziju that she knew the consequences of taking Qingkecao and Ximingsha together, which proved that what she said at the time was untrue and indirectly proved that she was related to the death of Shen Zi'an's mother. Although she still refused to admit it, everyone else thought so, even Shen Ziju believed it.
"Mom, take care of yourself. I'll come see you again when I have time."
After Shen Zian and Su Zhi left, Shen Ziju looked at Shen Zhang, who was sitting on the ground in a daze, and spoke in a low voice.
Shen Ziju knew that he could not save Shen Zhang. Now he and Shen Zi'an were on the same side. The emperor already knew about the crimes of Shen Zhang and Shen Zhu. He knew that in the emperor's heart, his importance was not as important as Shen Zi'an and Su Zhi. Now that his mother was identified by Shen Zi'an as the murderer of his aunt, he would definitely not let his mother go. If he went against Shen Zi'an, he would be going against the emperor. What's more, his mother was guilty herself, and now she has offended the Liu family!
Shen Zhang looked at Shen Ziju, moved her lips, but finally said nothing. She knew that no one could save her now.
Shen Ziju looked at Shen Zhang, thinking how his mother used to be such a glorious woman in his eyes, but now she was such a vicious person. He felt uncomfortable and didn't want to see her misery anymore, so he turned around and left quickly.
Shen Zhang watched Shen Ziju leave until he could no longer see her. She lowered her head, her shoulders shaking, and she didn't know whether she was crying or laughing. She thought her life was so ridiculous!
When Shen Ziju returned home, Shen Youfu and Shen Zhu came over.
Shen Zhu was released from prison, but she could not return to the Wang family. The Wang family knew that she had stolen things from Shen Zhangshi. Although Shen Zhangshi was her mother, it was still stealing. Moreover, Shen Zhangshi's things were actually stolen from others. Shen Zhangshi was actually a runaway slave. The Wang family had long been dissatisfied with Shen Zhu. Now they found a reason to divorce Shen Zhu. The reason was sufficient: stealing, no children, and being the daughter of a runaway slave.
After Shen Zhu was released from prison, she was never able to enter the Wang family again and only received a letter of divorce.
Shen Zhu resented her family for this. If her mother had not been a runaway slave, and if Shen Ziju had not refused to side with the Wang family, she would not have ended up like this. But now the Wang family did not accept her, and she, an abandoned wife, could only blame her family. No matter how much resentment she had, she could only keep it to herself.
Now Shen Zhu resented Shen Zhangshi in her heart, but she hoped Shen Zhangshi could get out of the prison the most, because she resented Shen Zhangshi. Others also resented her!
Shen Youfu believed that if Shen Zhu had not stolen Shen Zhang's box, the subsequent incident would not have happened and everything would have been fine at home. All the suffering was caused by Shen Zhu, so he was very angry with Shen Zhu and even beat her up when she came home.
Shen Zhu thought that if her mother was really hopeless, she would not be able to survive in this family!
"Brother, how is mom? Is she still angry with me? Is she doing well? Can you rescue her?"
Shen Zhu asked. Now, not everyone can see Shen Zhu. Besides, Shen Zhangshi doesn't want to see her either. Shen Zhangshi is blaming her now! Of course. Shen Zhu doesn't want to see Shen Zhangshi either. She doesn't want to go to the prison. She finally got out of there. But she doesn't want to go back in. It's dirty and smelly. She doesn't want to go.
Shen Youfu also asked anxiously. It would be a lie to say that he didn't blame Shen Zhang in his heart, but even if he blamed her now, he still hoped that Shen Zhang could be saved. It was not for Shen Zhang, but for his son. His son was an official, but he had a mother who was a runaway slave and a prisoner. This was not good for his future.
Shen Ziju hesitated whether to say it or not. He didn't know if his father would be angry if he knew that it was really his mother who killed his aunt.
"Why don't you say something?!"
Shen Youfu asked anxiously, but his heart skipped a beat. He thought that if his son didn't make a sound, he couldn't be saved. His son must be worried. What should he do?
Shen Zian sighed, thinking that when Mrs. Li said that his mother might be the murderer of Auntie, his father didn't do anything to her. Maybe his father knew it a long time ago. Shen Youfu didn't like Shen Zian, and he heard that he didn't like Auntie either. Shen Ziju thought that his father might not be angry even if he knew that it was his mother who killed Auntie. So if he told him now, he wouldn't be too shocked.
Shen Ziju told this story to prevent Shen Youfu from going through more trouble. He had no other choice. He was afraid that his father would go to his fourth brother and his friends again. Shen Youfu's words were not pleasant to hear, especially to his fourth brother and his friends. Shen Ziju was worried that Shen Youfu would cause more trouble, so he told the truth. He wanted him to know that his fourth brother and his friends could not possibly save Shen Zhangshi, and it was good enough that he did not take the opportunity to add insult to injury. Shen Zhangshi's crime was unforgivable.
Shen Youfu and Shen Zhu were stunned after hearing this.
Shen Youfu turned around and sat on the chair, lit up the dry cigarette in his hand, and smoked it fiercely. In fact, he had thought so in his heart for a long time, but now that he really got the confirmation, he was still a little overwhelmed. His mind was full of the face of his ex-wife. He thought he had forgotten her appearance a long time ago, but now it was so clear. He was a little scared in his heart, thinking that this would not be a retribution for him?
Shen Zhu was silent for a while, then whispered, "Brother, are we really not going to save our mother?"
Shen Ziju said, "There is no way to save her. There are too many people watching this matter now. The Liu family can't let Mother go, and Zi'an won't let her go either. The Emperor is also watching. Even the Wang family, now that we are in this situation, they probably want to find fault with me and get me out of office!"
When Shen Youfu heard this, he immediately said, "Don't go to that prison again."
The implicit meaning of this statement is to let Shen Zhang fend for himself.
Shen Ziju said nothing, and Shen Zhu didn't dare to say anything either.
"Go down, I'll talk to your brother." Shen Youfu said to Shen Zhu with a gloomy face, "Don't stay at home all day. When you have time, go find your fourth brother and ask them to forgive you. If they can't do it, think about what you will do in the future! If it really doesn't work, go back to Hebian Village and marry a villager! This way you won't get into trouble in the future! It's just a matter of a few dowries!"
Shen Youfu loved Shen Zhu because she was born with Shen Ziju as a dragon and phoenix twin, which was considered auspicious. Shen Zhu was also good-looking and smart. Shen Zhang always said that daughters were useful and could marry into a good family to help her son build connections. He thought it made sense, so he didn't treat Shen Zhu unfairly. Later, Shen Zhu broke off two marriage proposals in order to marry into a good family, which embarrassed the Shen family. When she arrived in the capital, she married into the Wang family because of a scandal. Fortunately, she married into a wealthy family, so Shen Youfu thought it was good even when he was angry. What was the result?
Shen Youfu was not only disappointed with his daughter, but also disgusted with her. He thought that if she hadn't been making trouble, Shen Zhangshi would not have been discovered to be a runaway slave. He thought that this daughter was here to harm this family. And she was divorced by the Wang family and became an abandoned woman. She was already a useless abandoned woman, so he thought about marrying her off again. However, he was also afraid that this daughter would cause trouble for his son again. He was afraid that the Wang family would not allow her to marry someone else after divorcing her. He also thought that no good family would want her as an abandoned woman. So he thought about sending her back to Hebian Village, where she would farm and feed pigs every day, and she would not make trouble anymore!
"Dad! You can't do this! Your daughter doesn't want to live that kind of life!"
Shen Zhu was anxious when she heard this. She didn't want to live the life of a country woman. She was used to a life of luxury and wealth. She couldn't bear the hard life again. Especially if she went back to Hebian Village, where would she face it?
"Brother, please beg my father for me! I don't want to go back there. I will never cause trouble again. I will be good and I will go to ask my fourth brother for mercy. Please don't send me back to Hebian Village. I don't want to marry a villager, brother. That would be shameful for you!"
Shen Zhu hurried to ask Shen Ziju for help.
Shen Ziju was now very helpless with this sister. Shen Youfu blamed her, so why not him? Almost all the embarrassing things in his life were caused by this sister. Even if she had a bad marriage because of him, he promised to let her live a good life, and he had already paid it back, and he himself was dragged down by her.
"Okay, Zhu'er, go back to your room and rest."
Shen Ziju told Shen Zhu that just when she was about to leave, Shen Youfu spoke again, asking her to go to the Marquis of Loyalty's Mansion to meet Shen Zian and others, asking her to reconcile with them, and not to come back if she didn't reconcile. Shen Zhu felt wronged and didn't want to go, but Shen Youfu glared at him fiercely, and Shen Ziju was stopped just as he was about to speak. Shen Zhu retreated under Shen Youfu's scolding, and walked out of the door with gritted teeth.
Shen Youfu ordered the servants at home not to prepare a car for Shen Zhu, and let her walk. Shen Zhu felt depressed and could only cover her face and go out alone.
When she walked to an alley, Shen Zhu heard a gust of wind coming from behind. Before she could turn around, she felt something like a rope around her neck, and someone pulled it tightly from behind. She couldn't breathe. She grabbed the rope with both hands, but it was too tight and she couldn't pull it. She grabbed from behind, but she couldn't catch anyone.
"Shen Zhu, you can die now! Die! All of you members of the Shen family should die!"
A sharp female voice whispered, like a voice from hell, with a strong hatred.
When Shen Zhu heard this voice, her eyes, which were already wide open due to shortness of breath, became even wider. That was Mu Weizhi's voice!
Shen Zhu was so frightened that she forgot to struggle. By the time she came to her senses, she had no strength left. Her hands slowly dropped down, her body went limp, and her hands became crooked.
Seeing that Shen Zhu had stopped moving, Mu Weizhi did not let go and continued to strangle her fiercely, with a vicious look on her pretty face.
"Go to hell! All the people in the Shen family go to hell! If it weren't for you, how could I become like this?! It's all your fault!"
Mu Weizhi pulled the rope in her hand back hard again, and only let go when she found that Shen Zhu was really not moving.
