Chapter 829: My cousin is reborn and wants to snatch my marriage (38)
Gu Shiyao's pupils shrank, and she was so frightened that she hurriedly explained: "I don't doubt your majesty's judgment! I just doubt you. How could you have discovered new grains?"
"Why can't I?" Ming Xun was almost mad with anger. "What right do you have to question me? You don't know me. I bought the seeds from a foreign merchant and planted them thinking they were rare and precious herbs. There are traces to follow. What's the problem?"
Gu Shiyao suddenly took a step back, a light bulb suddenly lit up her head, and she remembered Mingxun's little garden, which was like a treasure and planted with many strange plants. When she wanted to plot against Gu Shichu and Mingxun before, didn't she take Gu Shichu there for a visit?
In his previous life, Mingxun loved to buy all kinds of plant seeds to plant. He said that it was very fulfilling and exciting to see all kinds of unknown plants being grown.
She once got furious because Mingxun spent too much money on seeds whose authenticity she didn't know. In an impulse, she ordered people to pull out all the plants in his small garden. Mingxun completely lost interest in her after that.
Could it be that because I pulled out those plants, Mingxun didn't find new crops in his previous life? When Gu Shiyao thought of this possibility, she trembled all over. She shook her head frantically and muttered, "Impossible, impossible... It's impossible that I pulled them out..."
Ming Xun was frightened by her shaking her head and talking to herself like a madman, and he quickly shouted, "Send her back to the Tang family! Is she crazy? If she wants to go crazy, she should go crazy at home, not in my house! Tell Tang Buqing to take good care of her and don't let her go out casually, so as not to hurt others!"
So Gu Shiyao was driven out of the Duke of Qiyang's Mansion and escorted back to the Tang family. Tang Buqing happened to return home, and was angry and shocked to see his wife being escorted back rudely. However, when he heard the servants of the Duke of Qiyang's Mansion say how Gu Shiyao broke into the Duke of Qiyang's Mansion today and how she questioned and suspected Ming Xun, he was almost dumbfounded.
"What on earth are you doing? You went crazy and went to someone else's house. You are so disgraceful! Is the Duke of Qiyang's Mansion a place where you can mess around? Have you forgotten the ugly things you did there? Don't you feel embarrassed to be kicked out and sent back? You don't feel embarrassed, but I do! Gu! Do you want to kill me? The Duke of Qiyang is not someone I can afford to offend. Why do you want to bring trouble to me? Who gave you the courage?!"
Gu Shiyao was already in a state of anxiety and excitement because she was shocked to learn that Mingxun had discovered a new grain variety. When she heard Tang Buqing's question, she immediately exploded and shouted, "My father gave me the courage! Duke Qiyang is so great? My father is also a duke, who is more noble than who?"
Tang Buqing looked at Gu Shiyao sternly and said, "Your father gave you the courage to offend the Duke of Qiyang's Mansion, but I don't have the confidence or the courage. You love to rely on your father's power so much, why do you still stay in my Tang family? The Tang family really wronged you, the eldest daughter of the Duke's Mansion! My Tang family can't afford to support a big Buddha like you, so why don't I give you a letter of divorce and you can go back to the Duke's Mansion!"
Tang Buqing was also infuriated by Gu Shiyao's righteous words. If he still had his reason, he would never have said that he would divorce Gu Shiyao. After all, he couldn't offend Duke Anguo. But now, wasn't he so angry that he said it impulsively?
When Gu Shiyao heard what he said, she was stunned and shocked. She had never expected that Tang Buqing would actually want to divorce her! If it was normal, she might still endure it, but today, she was stimulated by Ming Xun's matter. Once her emotions came up, she couldn't endure it anymore, and she didn't want to endure it, so she said to Tang Buqing fiercely: "Okay! I'll go back to the Anguo Mansion now! If you have the ability, send the divorce letter to the Anguo Mansion..."
After saying this, she got back into the carriage and left without waiting for Tang Buqing's response.
Tang Buqing waited until she left before realizing what he had said. After calming down, he felt very upset. Even if he had a problem with Gu Shiyao, now was not the time to divorce her. As long as the Anguo Mansion did not fall, he would not divorce her.
This time when she went to the Anguo Mansion, she didn't know how she would complain to Duke Anguo. When she thought about how the difficult Duke Anguo would question her, Tang Buqing felt a headache.
Zhou looked at her crying daughter and couldn't help but sigh and asked, "What's wrong with you? You came back crying. Did you have a quarrel with your son-in-law? Or are you angry with your mother-in-law again?"
Gu Shiyao said angrily with red eyes: "It's Tang Buqing! He said he wants to divorce me!"
"What? He really said that?" Zhou was shocked. "He is not an impulsive person. How could he say such a thing? Did you do something to anger him again?"
Gu Shiyao paused, feeling a little guilty. She broke into the Duke of Qiyang's mansion to question Ming Xun, and was escorted back by Ming Xun. It was indeed her fault first, but wasn't she just impulsive? Tang Buqing was scolding her at this time, and she came back in a fit of anger.
Although Gu Shiyao was impulsive and willful, she was at fault in this matter anyway. But even if she was at fault, how could Tang Buqing say so easily that he would divorce her? Did he have been thinking about divorcing her for a long time?
Thinking of this, she suddenly became anxious, and the guilty conscience was forgotten. She turned to Zhou and cried, "Even if I did something wrong, how can he divorce me? Since I married him, I have endured the daily torture from his mother, and I have spared no effort to help him socialize with the wives and families of his colleagues. I have tried very hard, but he actually wants to divorce me. Has he had this idea for a long time? How can he be so heartless... Mother... you have to help me..."
Listening to her crying, Zhou felt a headache. She really didn't want to get too involved in the conflict between her daughter and son-in-law, but she couldn't not get involved either. She couldn't be so cruel as to ignore her daughter.
"Tell me clearly, why did he say he wanted to divorce you? Tell me the truth, don't hide it from me." Zhou frowned and said to Gu Shiyao, "Don't avoid the trivial matter."
Gu Shiyao's eyes flickered, and finally she lowered her head and whispered, "I heard today that the Marquis of Qiyang's Mansion was promoted to a higher rank and received many rewards because of the discovery of new grain varieties. I didn't believe it for a moment, so I went to the Marquis of Qiyang... the Duke of Qiyang's Mansion to inquire. Later, I don't know why, Mingxun got angry and drove me away. When I returned home, my husband knew that I went to the Duke of Qiyang's Mansion, and he was very angry. He also said that I was crazy and wanted to divorce me..."
"Why did you go to the Duke of Qiyang's Mansion? Have they discovered what the new grain seeds have to do with you? Don't forget the ugly thing you once did that brought shame to the Duke of Qiyang's Mansion! Don't you know how much they hate you? Why did you still go?" Zhou was almost mad at her.
