Chapter 131 Ask for [VIP] for her
Chen Yao closed the study door and walked towards him in disbelief.
When she got closer, she found that Yang Jizong had already written the divorce agreement and was not joking with her.
"My cousin said you had something to tell me. Is this the case?"
Chen Yao could probably guess why he wanted to divorce her at this critical moment. She reached out and picked up the divorce papers, read them carefully, and then picked up the brush placed beside her.
Just as she was about to write her name on the divorce document, Yang Jizong suddenly grabbed her wrist.
Yang Jizong cornered the man at the desk and explained, "Ayao, Wang Xiang and his followers won't let me off easily. Wenying and I will implicate everyone on this day. This divorce letter is just for show, don't take it seriously. Do you understand me?"
Of course Chen Yao understood. Not only did she understand, she tilted her head and asked, "Will a divorce letter alone be enough?"
Yang Jizong suddenly laughed and pulled her back to sit down on the chair. "After we get to Beijing, you have to perform another play with me."
"What play?"
Yang Jizong whispered in her ear.
Chen Yao was surprised when she heard this, her mouth half open. "Are you sure you want to do this?"
"Yeah, I'm sure."
"Can I tell my family about this?"
"No, only when they believe it will outsiders believe it even more."
Chen Yao leaned in front of him, rubbing circles on his chest with her fingers while muttering, "Alright, you're the one who's at a disadvantage. It only takes one mouth to spread rumors, but you'll have to work yourself to death to dispel them later."
Yang Jizong grabbed her hand, lowered his head, and kissed her on the lips: "Why bother running around? Some things can be dispelled if you just do it yourself."
Chen Yao realized what he was talking about, struggled to stand up, and raised the corner of her mouth: "Please keep the divorce papers safe and don't let anyone at home find out. I'll go pack my bags and leave with you and your cousin tomorrow."
Yang Jizong put the dried letter paper into an envelope and hid it in the books, then left the study with Chen Yao.
Tian Baolai comforted his mother and sister in the house, and sighed deeply when he walked out.
My sister's personality has changed after this trip. Even though such a big thing happened, she is not afraid at all and even wants to go to Jiangnan to do business.
Neither he nor his mother could change his sister's decision.
It would take some time for his sister to recover from her injuries, and he believed that during this time, his parents would be able to persuade his sister to stay.
"Ayao, Zi'an, how long will it take us to get to the capital? Can we come back in time to harvest the winter wheat?" Tian Baolai stood at the door of Shen Yao's room and asked inside.
Chen Yao asked her cousin to come in and talk. Yang Jizong told them that it would be faster to get to the capital from Fang County than to Jiangnan, and it would only take half a month to arrive by carriage.
Hearing this, Tian Baolai clapped his hands and said, "That's great! Now that we're back, we can arrange for the villagers to convert the wasteland into paddy fields. A'yao, we're all leaving the village tomorrow, so let your father help take care of the village affairs."
"Not only do I need to ask my father for help, but I also need to ask several older grandparents in the village and the teachers in the school for help."
Tian Baolai nodded repeatedly, waved to Yang Jizong and Shen Yao, and went to handle the matter. On the way, he told Dongsheng that the two mule carts at home had been brought back, and none of the goods they brought back from Jiangnan were missing.
During dinner in the evening, Huang Xing and Huang Mei were shocked to learn that the three children would accompany the prefect, Lord Li, to Beijing to meet the emperor the next day.
"A, A'yao, you mean you are going to meet the emperor of our Daduo Dynasty, right?" Huang Mei bent down to pick up the chopsticks that fell on the ground, and when she looked up, they bumped against the edge of the table.
Chen Yao helped her aunt change a new pair of chopsticks: "Yes, it's our Majesty."
"Oh, here, here, sister, after dinner, let's take the children to sweep the ancestral graves of our family." Huang Mei swallowed nervously, with a very happy look on her face.
Huang Xing immediately agreed: "Yes, big sister, it's time to sweep. Tell my third brother and his wife too."
After the Chinese New Year, Huang Songbai and his son clamored to go home to recuperate, unwilling to stay in the Shen family and cause trouble for everyone.
After asking Dr. Zeng if it was possible to move the father and son, Miao began to arrange for them to live back home.
Now it seems that all these things happened because the ancestors were blessing the children from the netherworld.
This tomb must be swept.
Shen Qingshan, who was sitting on the side, was not as happy as the other two. Instead, he looked at Yang Jizong and said, "You and Baolai can go, why do you have to bring Ayao with you?"
"Ayao's father, this is such a great thing. It would be great to let Ayao go with you to see the world." Huang Mei touched Chen Yao's head and exclaimed in admiration.
"Big sister is right. A Yao wants to see our emperor. How many people can't see him once in a lifetime, no, several lifetimes. How wonderful!"
"Bullshit, what do you know? How far is it to get to the city? What if we meet those criminals on the way again?" Shen Qingshan slammed the chopsticks in his hand heavily on the table with a gloomy face.
Everyone was shocked, especially Huang Xing. She had never seen her husband so angry before. After she recovered from the shock, she retorted, "If you have something to say, please talk to him nicely."
What did he mean? He also wanted to ask what Yang Jizong meant. Did he want to bring disaster to the whole family?
Shen Qingshan's eyes were a little fierce, and Yang Wenying was so scared that she didn't even dare to pick up the bowl. This look made her feel at ease all of a sudden.
My brother's sleeve.
"Ayao is not allowed to follow Ding," Ding said with a flash of anger in his eyes. "Ayao is still young. She only thinks about farming and doesn't understand. If she goes, she will only cause trouble."
Huang Xing's expression froze. "Shen Qingshan, how dare you belittle your daughter like that? How could our A-Yao be going there to cause trouble? A-Yao is traveling with Lord Li and has the protection of yamen runners, so how could she be in danger? Zi'an, tell me, is A-Yao going there because she's capable?"
Huang Xing stood up for her daughter. In the past, they were incompetent parents and could not give birth to a son, so A Yao was often laughed at by the villagers.
Huang Xing knew very well why the villagers respected A Yao now, and she would never allow anyone to belittle her daughter again.
Yang Jizong stood up and bowed deeply to everyone present, apology, "I should have discussed this matter with my father-in-law and mother-in-law first. I shouldn't have made a rash decision. It's my fault."
Huang Xing immediately walked over and pulled him up: "You kid, you're being so distant with us again. Ayao and you are husband and wife. What you two are willing to do, how can we, as elders, stop you?"
It is obvious to whom this is addressed.
Shen Qingshan suppressed his anger, stood up, and said in a slightly slower tone: "Then tell me, what are you going to do with A Yao?"
Yang Jizong told everyone that he wanted to ask for a reward for A Yao. With the reward from His Majesty, even if someone wanted to harm everyone in the future, they would have to think twice.
"But why did His Majesty reward our A Yao?"
"Sister, are you stupid? Our A-Yao has done so many good things for the people. Zi'an and the others are promoting winter wheat planting thanks to our A-Yao, right, Zi'an?"
Yang Jizong nodded and concealed the other matter.
Shen Qingshan snorted coldly, turned around and left the table, leaving everyone looking at each other in bewilderment. The atmosphere at the table froze for a moment.
Huang Xing signaled everyone to continue eating. She told them not to worry about her husband, but she stood up, put some dishes into Shen Qingshan's bowl, and brought it to him into the house.
The night before leaving, Huang Mei and Huang Xing took their two children to visit the graves.
Yang Jizong called his sister to the study and told her some things.
Yang Wenying ran out of the study with swollen eyes and went straight into Chen Yao's room. That night, the two little girls slept in the same bed again.
The next day, it was still dark.
Shen Qingshan drove the family's mule cart carrying the three children to the government office. He watched them get on the carriage and then watched the yamen runners escort the prison carriage out of the city before he turned the mule cart around and went home.
He did not go to the silkworm room today, but went to the tofu workshop.
The tofu workshop in the village hired five capable women. These five women took charge of everything in the tofu workshop. Every time they wanted a certain amount of beans or a certain amount of goods, they had to first inform Huang Xing and ask her to sign and put her fingerprints on it.
When Shen Qingshan came over, he saw his wife stamping the shipping order for one of the women.
It is marked on it which restaurant ordered which batch of goods, who is responsible for producing the goods, and the date, quantity and name are all clearly marked. If there is a problem, just find the corresponding delivery order.
And this method was naturally thought up by her daughter.
Shen Qingshan was so engrossed in watching his wife working that he forgot to come over and talk to her.
It was only after Huang Xing finished her work, closed the account book and locked the drawer that she realized her husband had come.
"Have my daughter and the others left?" Huang Xing reached out to smooth out the wrinkles on her husband's cotton-padded jacket.
Shen Qingshan nodded.
"Okay, don't be so sad. The children are not at home, and there are a lot of things waiting for us to do at home. Let's go to the rabbit house and call Yue Ashui home in a couple of days."
"What do you want him to do?"
Huang Xing glared at her husband and said, "Of course we need him to help continue delivering goods to Jiangnan. You scared Wenying last night at dinner. Wenying woke up with swollen eyes this morning. She told me that she has finished another batch of velvet flowers and leather goods and needs to send them over."
Shen Qingshan touched his nose awkwardly and turned to go to the rabbit house.
Yang Wenying cried all night last night, not because of Shen Qingshan, but because her brother told her that when Chen Yao returned from the capital, it would be time for them and her siblings to leave the Shen family.
How could she not be sad when she thought about leaving here and leaving everyone?
"Hey, A Yao's father, why are you here? Didn't you come to see A Yao off?" Last night, after Tian Baolai told the elders in the village about going to Beijing to meet the emperor, everyone felt that the three children brought honor to their village.
Xu was the first to notice Shen Qingshan's arrival. She immediately put down the embroidery in her hands and walked towards him.
Seeing that none of the embroiderers had gone in, Shen Qingshan stood outside the door and waved at Yang Wenying, signaling the girl to come out.
Yang Wenying lowered her head and didn't dare to look at him.
Shen Qingshan coughed lightly and said, "I heard from your aunt that another batch of velvet flowers and leather goods have been made. I will ask Yue Ashui to pick up the goods the day after tomorrow. You should prepare the delivery orders."
Yang Wenying nodded in a muffled voice.
Shen Qingshan saw that she was in a bad mood, so he spoke to her as if to coax his daughter: "Didn't I lose my temper with you during dinner yesterday? I want to say sorry to you."
Yang Wenying suddenly raised her head, and two more lines of tears flowed from her already red eyes.
"Hey, kid, why are you crying again? Didn't your uncle apologize to you?"
"No, no, it's not uncle's fault. It's us brothers and sisters who are sorry for you and have brought trouble to everyone. Wuuuuu!" Yang Wenying stood at the door and cried loudly.
Xu, who was sitting in the house, could hear the two talking. Seeing Shen Qingshan's bewildered look, she hurried forward to help him out: "Ayao's father, go and do your work. I'll come and comfort Wenying."
"Okay, Manager Xu, then I'll leave it to you." Shen Qingshan hurriedly walked towards the house at the back.
After Shen Qingshan left, no matter how Xu tried to comfort her or ask questions, Yang Wenying refused to say a word. After she had cried enough, she continued to make velvet flowers.
