Chapter 557 Want to start your own business?
"Ah Xiao, how long are we going to have to live like this?"
After several years of torture, Yu Ziyuan became thin, with a miserable face, and was wearing a patched coarse linen shirt.
A pair of hands covered with whip marks were wiping Cheng Xiao's body with a wet cloth.
Cheng Xiao hated Jiang Yunshu so much after seeing how his beloved woman had been tortured over the past few years.
She took advantage of the fact that he was paralyzed in bed and unable to take care of himself, so she dared to bully A Yuan in front of him.
Damn, he can't do anything!
"Ayuan, find another chance to escape and go find our eldest son and ask him to invite the Cheng family over. I'm going to divorce her in front of everyone in the family to put an end to this life of being neither human nor ghost."
Yu Ziyuan: "I've tried several times, but there's no chance at all. Now the entire Cheng family is Jiang Yunshu's people, and there are three shifts of night watchmen. I don't know where your people have been taken away by the Jiang family. The eldest son must have been discovered by the Jiang family, otherwise he would have teamed up with the Cheng family to come to our house. And Yao'er and our youngest son are missing. Yao'er is eighteen this year. I'm worried that Jiang Yunshu sold her out, or she is already gone... Woo woo..."
Yu Ziyuan felt filled with regret when she mentioned her two children.
Why had she been so bewildered that she listened to her mother-in-law and retired to the concubine's room, allowing Axiao to marry Jiang Yunshu?
Otherwise her children would not have suffered such a disaster.
She is also the upright wife of the Earl of Yongping.
The Jiang family is so stupid that they didn't do any thorough checking before marrying their daughter.
Is it impossible to find out whether Axiao has ever been married?
That’s right, there’s no way to find out!
They got married in Qinzhou where my father-in-law worked, and the official registration should have been completed.
Half a year before the emperor ascended the throne and issued a general amnesty, my father-in-law was transferred back to the capital to take up a post.
At that time, she was pregnant with her eldest son and did not come to Beijing. When she gave birth to the child and rushed to the capital, he was sent to the Yu Mansion.
If her father-in-law had been transferred back to Beijing half a year or a year later, she wouldn't have had to become a concubine.
"Ah Xiao, if time goes back to the past, will you still let me retreat and become a concubine?"
Cheng Xiao looked at Yu Ziyuan, who was no longer beautiful, and thought of their happy times in Qinzhou.
To be honest, he really regretted his decision back then.
He was reluctant at the time, but his father and mother forced him to do so.
The Cheng family was gradually declining, and the noble families in Beijing had long forgotten the glory of the Cheng ancestors.
Marrying into the Jiang family means gaining the favor of the new emperor, Xiao Yanli. If he makes a few more achievements and is promoted to a higher title, he will be able to restore the glory of his ancestors.
If he fails to gain the emperor's favor, not only will he not be able to inherit the title of earl, he will simply become an ordinary official.
"If time goes back to those days, I naturally wouldn't want to."
If he really goes back to the past, he seems to have no choice.
Yu Ziyuan glanced at the sky and said, "Wait a minute, I'll go heat up the lunch."
Just as Yu Ziyuan reached the door, Meidai pushed it open with a whip.
Yu Ziyuan's body shook uncontrollably twice and she fell to the ground.
"What do you want to do? Get out of here!" Cheng Xiao quickly reached under the quilt and found a pair of scissors. "Don't be afraid, Yuan. Come here quickly."
Yu Ziyuan quickly got up, climbed onto the bed and hid inside.
Meidai sneered inwardly, thinking that he was paralyzed but still wanted to protect Yu.
"My Lord, Madam told me to come over and serve you well. Come, take Yu away."
As soon as he finished speaking, two servants came forward.
"If you don't want to die, get out of here!"
When the two rough servants saw Cheng Xiao take out a pair of scissors from under the quilt, they stopped immediately and dared not move forward.
Mei Dai frowned. Even though the Marquis was paralyzed, he could still conjure up a pair of scissors. It seemed that there was a traitor among his subordinates. "What are you still standing there for? How can the Marquis be your opponent? Hurry and hold the Marquis down and take away his scissors!"
The two servants finally reacted and rushed forward to snatch the scissors from Cheng Xiao's hands.
Cheng Xiao was furious. He couldn't even handle a servant. "Call Jiang Yunshu over to me. I'm going to divorce her!"
"Shut?" Mei Dai laughed angrily, "You think you deserve it?! What are you still standing there for? Take Yu away from me!"
"No, no! Ah Xiao, Ah Xiao, save me, save me..."
Cheng Xiao watched Yu Ziyuan being taken away, but he was powerless to do anything.
He wished he could kill Jiang Yunshu right now!
He wants to live well and wait for Jiang Yunshu to show up.
Even if he was paralyzed in bed, he could still take Jiang Yunshu's life!
Mei Dai saw his bloodshot eyes and kindly said, "Don't worry, my Lord. She will be fine. Doctor Bai, please come in and take a good look at my Lord."
Cheng Xiao saw Bai Luoheng coming in with a look of alarm on his face, "What does Jiang Yunshu want to do to me? I'm her husband!"
Mei Dai said, "That's why Madam wants to ask a doctor to see the Marquis."
After taking his pulse, Bai Luoheng took out the ointment and applied it evenly on the bruises.
Half an incense stick later, several maids brought in dinner and served him.
Cheng Xiao understood that Jiang Yunshu, this vicious woman, wanted to take care of him and then continue to torture him, torturing him repeatedly!
hateful!
After being brought out, Yu Ziyuan was sent directly to the most dilapidated courtyard to the west of the Cheng Mansion to reunite with her two children.
Yu Qingyao, dressed as a rough maid, was washing clothes.
Hearing the noise at the gate, he hurriedly got up and went into the room, "Brother, lie down quickly and hold your stomach."
The pale and skinny child not only lay down holding his stomach, but also frowned, looking as if he was in unbearable pain.
Seeing this, Yu Qingyao couldn't tell whether A-di was really in pain or just pretending?
"Brother, are you feeling unwell?"
The child opened his eyes and shook his head, then quickly closed his eyes and pretended to be in pain.
If he wasn't in pain, he was just hungry. He knew that as long as he was hungry enough to feel pain, he could eat soft and delicious rice, and his sister would also be full.
He didn't know why the maids in the mansion could eat well and wear nice clothes.
He and his sister could only eat one meal a day, and the clothes they wore were all patched up by his sister.
Sometimes he would dream at night of a beautiful aunt calling him her son, making him lots of delicious food, and teaching him how to read and write.
The beautiful aunt should be his mother, right?
Why didn’t mother come to find him and sister?
Will I no longer have to go hungry if my mother comes?
The door was pushed open and Yu Ziyuan was pushed in.
"Mother." Yu Ziyuan suddenly looked over. Yu Qingyao rushed over and hugged Yu Ziyuan tightly in her arms. "Is it really you? Mother, I miss you so much. Woo... You've lost weight..."
"Yao'er." Yu Ziyuan hurriedly pushed Yu Qingyao aside and took a closer look. Fortunately, there were no injuries on her face, but her daughter's delicate hands had become rough and frostbitten. She was heartbroken, "Yao'er, you've suffered."
The little person on the bed sat up and looked at Yu Ziyuan curiously, "Sister, who is she?"
"Brother, she is our mother."
"Son, mother is here." Yu Ziyuan's eyes instantly became moist as she looked at her thin and frail son, and her heart ached.
The four-year-old child looked as if he was two years old. He couldn't wait to hold him in his arms and said, "I'm sorry, Mommy is late. It's all because of Mommy that you suffered so much..."
Only at this moment did she finally realize how stupid she was back then! She retired to a concubine's room for Ah Xiao and the future of the Cheng family, and made her own child suffer!
Meidai asked someone to deliver food and clean clothes to the mother and her two children, and then returned to Fangfei Garden.
"Madam, the three of them, mother and son, have met, and the Marquis has arranged for someone to serve them."
Jiang Yunshu said, "For the next two weeks, make sure they have good food, drink, and good care. Especially Madam Cheng, they must be well taken care of. Starting tomorrow, my dowry will be moved into the Marquis of Xiaoyong's mansion. All the things I bought when I got married must be taken away."
In half a month, Jiang Yunshu moved almost all of his belongings to the Mansion of Marquis Xiaoyong.
When the elders of the Cheng family learned about this, they sent people to help.
The Mansion of Marquis Xiaoyong is twice as large as the Cheng Mansion, and is located in a place where powerful and wealthy people gather.
They thought that since Cheng Xiao was paralyzed, the Cheng family would gradually decline and they, the clansmen, would no longer be able to benefit from the Cheng family.
Unexpectedly, the Marquis' eldest son who came back from the dead was so capable.
He must perform well and gain more benefits for his people.
But unexpectedly, all the people sent were sent back.
The elder of the Cheng family suddenly felt something was wrong. Could it be that this resurrected child wanted to set up his own family?
