He finally chose Wen Ruoqing. Only in this way could the matter be over.
So he stopped trying to smooth things over and instead sent his wife directly to the nunnery.
In the end, Xiao Liu chose to stay with the old lady, preferring to practice in the family temple rather than return to the Wang family. Old Lady Wen's mood fluctuated greatly, she was very sad and angry, and she had a stroke, but it was not serious: her eyes were slanted, her mouth was crooked, and she drank water in a lewd way. Fortunately, she had her "daughter" to accompany her attentively, so she didn't end up too badly.
Although the Wang family did not get their "wife" back, the "kind-hearted man" gave them a lot of money, so they stopped the plot.
The housekeeper of the Wen family, under the order of his master, took the list to Wen Xianggui to ask for the birth certificate, and even though she cried bitterly, if she didn't give it, he threatened to ask her husband's family for it.
Her dim sum shop was taken back by the Wen family just like that...
But the Wen family, for some unknown reason, gave her a lot of money. But what she wanted was the shop!
He wanted to ask Old Master Wen to plead for him, and even offered to buy it with money, but the Wen family ignored him.
Moreover, the Yuan family disliked her because of her "scandal". If it weren't for the fact that the eldest son of the Yuan family was really ugly, it would be difficult to remarry. When she gave birth to another son, she was really kicked out. Without the support of Mrs. Wen, her mother-in-law set a rule for her, that she should only give birth at home and not go anywhere else! The Wen family immediately began to clean up the yard and prepare to welcome the eldest daughter: Wen Shizhu... This was the name that Wen Ruoqing changed, and she returned home to live.
Wen Shizhu went to pay a visit to Old Master Wen. Such a beautiful granddaughter called softly: Grandfather! All the worries of the old master were swept away, and he gave a valuable gift. On weekdays, he also invited a few friends to the store to eat and drink, enjoying the care of his granddaughter! Wen Ruoqing was very appreciative of Wen Yu's quick, precise and effective actions. Everything is beautiful! Except Hu Fei... That guy is very annoying, surrounding him like a fly, it is simply impossible to guard against him.
As calm and open-minded as he is, he also started to get anxious.
Hu Fei, however, was even more anxious. He could only see Zhuzhu in the store when Wen Ruoqing was attending the morning court. As a result, Zhuzhu kept talking about "Dad" and "Father"... which made him suffer bitterly. He wanted to express his feelings to Master Wen, but he ignored him.
When Marquis Qi returned home, he told Tan about this strange incident and sighed, "I didn't expect that Xiaowu's wife's best friend is actually Lord Wen's biological daughter. To be honest, Xiaowu's wife is a good choice... I have to be more tolerant of her in the future."
Tan did not respond, nor did she express her attitude, but smiled and said, "If the Marquis can say this, then this marriage is really a blessing in disguise!"
"At least, we can make some plans when we review the military pay at the end of the year!" He nodded. "I heard that the clothes made in her shop are pretty good. You can go there one day or ask the shop to come over and make two sets of clothes for the women in your family! I'll pay you in advance!"
Tan was filled with hatred in her heart, but she smiled sweetly: "The Marquis is very wealthy, so we have to pick the most expensive ones!"
"Okay!" The Marquis agreed, and after a while asked again: "... How much silver can the most expensive one cost?"
"I heard that there are sets that cost more than a thousand taels!"
"..." The Marquis was surprised. "Is it gold? Even if it is gold, it is so heavy that it will crush a person to death. Come on! You can fool those vain people, but don't even think about fooling me! I won't make it so expensive. Once you have chosen, ask her to give me a quote!"
After the Marquis left, Tan's face was gloomy. She guessed that the Marquis must have had a specific meaning when he said this to her... It was probably that bitch Wen Yu who was spreading rumors in front of him.
She is really good at it...
For so many years, I have never suffered such a loss. A stinky bitch... a little whore! She deserves to be taken to the military camp and ridden by thousands of people! She turned the agarwood string in her hand, cursing like a street shrew in her heart, and imagined the scene of her abuse a hundred times.
…
This wave of recognition of relatives has pushed the store’s business to a climax.
Wen Yu took advantage of the situation and often ran to the store. "Wen Shizhu!" When she saw Zhuzhu, Wen Yu would shout loudly! Then the two of them laughed together.
Wei, who was taking care of her baby at home, finally waited for Yang Xiangdong.
He returned to the capital, presented the memorial, and gave a few instructions. Without even going home, he brought a cart full of things and went straight to the Wei family.
"Xiangyu! I miss you so much!" A short separation is better than a new marriage. Yang Xiangdong thought about it for three months, and when he looked at Wei Xiangyu again, she seemed to be more beautiful and plump than before. He was so excited that he went up to hug her tightly.
Wei Xiangyu buried her head in his chest, listening to his thumping heartbeat, and was also very excited. When he started to make some moves, she smiled bitterly and held his hand: "Please sit down, I have something to tell you."
Yang Xiangdong said in a naughty way: "Let's talk about it later, just for a while..." His breath sprayed on Wei Xiangyu's neck, making her feel distracted...
"No, no... Wait a minute, just a few words..."
Yang Xiangdong held her for a while before letting her go: "Okay, okay... tell me, faster!"
There are two people hiding somewhere, one of them is very disappointed and is about to see a good show...
These two were the spies sent by Song Shang and Mu Bo. They met and got to know each other...
Wei took Yang Xiangdong's hand and gently stroked her belly. She smiled and said, "I'm pregnant."
"What?" Yang Xiangdong was stunned, then he was surprised and happy, "Is this true?"
"Um."
"This... this is great. Xiangyu, this is great!"
"Listen to me first!" Wei Xiangyu was satisfied with his reaction, but if she wanted him to do something, she still had to plan: "I found out a month after you left. I wanted to abort him..."
Seeing that Yang Xiangdong was about to speak again, she stopped him and said, "But I couldn't bear to do it in the end. Later I thought it through... I want to give birth to this child. Now, I have to tell you solemnly: being with you is my own choice. Since I have chosen it, I have no regrets. I, Wei Xiangyu, can bear the consequences!"
"Xiangyu, what nonsense are you talking about?" Yang Xiangdong said excitedly.
"Listen to me first..." Wei Xiangyu burst into tears: "I know how important the Li family is to you, and you can't leave them at the moment. So it's not a good time to have this child. I didn't expect it, but here he comes..."
"I know, I know! There is always a way to solve it...you don't have to worry!" After being excited, Yang Xiangdong calmed down and began to think about this problem.
"Xiangyu...really. I'm not kidding you...I..." Yang Xiangdong stopped. What should he do? It was too late anyway!
"Xiangdong, I have already made up my mind. I will give birth to him in this courtyard, and then arrange for someone to find a place to properly house him. In the future, if we can be together, I will go to the charity hall and adopt him."
"Wait for me first..."
Wei Xiangxiang poured tea and water for him, and then went to the kitchen to prepare some side dishes. After a while, Yang Xiangdong finally said, "Xiangyu, come here. I have an idea, listen to it..."
…
At Grand Tutor Zhao’s residence, eighty-year-old Madam Zhao is celebrating her birthday.
The old master had long passed away, and Madam Zhao was sometimes lucid and sometimes confused. But despite this, the emperor would call her "Master's wife" when he saw her.
Although it is no longer as prominent as when the Grand Tutor was alive, its glory has not diminished.
Yang Xiangdong's wife, in a corner, pulled her sister, Madam Li, and acted like a spoiled child, "Ask your uncle to find a new job for your husband. He's too busy. He's been away for several months, and when he comes back he's not home all day. Sometimes he even sleeps in the front room... He never slept with me... I still want to have another baby!"
Madam Li said with disdain, "The last time you gave birth to Brother Xun, you had a difficult labor and almost scared me to death. You already have a son and a daughter, why are you still giving birth?! Don't give birth anymore!"
"Sister...I like little furry guys."
"But don't you think about it, if something unexpected happens, what will happen to the two siblings? Listen to my sister, if Yang Xiangdong feels that there are not enough children, we will not stop him from taking a concubine!"
"...I don't like my husband taking concubines!"
"Whether he likes it or not is fine! If he really wants to do this, and you stop him, we might even become enemies after a long time. Why bother? I don't even care about your brother-in-law. I've asked him several times, and it's because he doesn't want it. You should just raise the two children well, that's better than anything else!"
"oh……"
Although Madam Li said so, she didn't think Yang Xiangdong would take a concubine. She knew this girl too well. She was innocent and kind, and had no ability.
She chose her brother-in-law for her sister. He was smart and capable, but he had no family background or money. He was able to get to where he is today thanks to the support of the Li family.
If he was a man of knowledge and conscience, he would have spoiled my sister all his life and not had any evil ideas.
"Okay! I see a few people and I want to go talk to them. Go find some friends to hang out with, and I'll call you when we leave later!"
"Hey!" My sister left happily.
Madam Li shook her head. This girl's life would be like this. It was not bad to have a son and a daughter to take care of.
