Chapter 90 Fang Jia starts to fight back
Song Ziyu shouted from inside the house, "Jia'er, Jia'er, you are still in confinement after childbirth, you can't run out now."
To be honest, this season has really heated up.
Fang Jia was not afraid and rushed out directly. Seeing that Song's mother was holding a small package in her arms, Fang Jia stepped forward and snatched it away.
Mother Song saw it and wanted to snatch it away.
Fang Jia directly threw out a pair of scissors.
"You want to come and try to take it?"
"I was good to you before, filial, and even washed clothes and cooked for you when I was pregnant. That was all for Song Ziyu's sake. Now I don't care about anyone else. I will treat you the way you treat me."
"And do you know who gave me this package?"
"Mrs. Qiao is the most beloved concubine of the Marquis of Zhenbei. She and I are sisters. If I ask her for help, your whole family will be exiled. Song Ziyu's future career will be over."
When Song's mother heard Fang Jia's words, she was frightened, but she still said firmly: "I didn't do anything. Besides, what can a concubine do?"
"The third brother is your husband. You can ruin your husband's life."
Fang Jia said coldly, "Didn't you ask us to separate? Soon we won't be husband and wife anymore. Since we're not husband and wife anymore, why would I care about her?"
Old Lady Song didn't dare touch the things in Fang Jia's hand again.
Fang Jia then carried the things back to the house, and without caring about what Song Ziyu said, she opened the package first and saw that it was full of children's clothes, in blue and pink, and a small gold lock.
Fang Jia started crying while laughing.
She felt bored and uninteresting in the Marquis' Mansion at the beginning. After all, she had to sleep with an unfamiliar man. She felt disgusted and wanted to escape.
After escaping, she turned around and married the so-called love.
She was indeed sweet for a while, but after the sweet period passed and she returned to real life, she realized how unrealistic her previous thoughts were.
Looking at her current life, she wants to go back to the Marquis' Mansion.
Even if there is no love and ruthlessness in the Marquis' Mansion, you don't have to worry about life.
Fang Jia also thought that if she was really locked up in the backyard of the Marquis' Mansion for the rest of her life, she would feel unwilling to do so.
Fang Jia thought to herself that it was time for her to grow up.
Since she has married Song Ziyu and now has a child, the Song family is indeed not in good shape, but she wants to fix this family.
It just so happens that Yun Qiao is now at the farm, so she can use her power to put pressure on the Song family.
The second sister-in-law of the Song family is timid and cowardly. She is afraid of Song's mother, but she hates her in her heart.
It is easy to incite rebellion.
The eldest sister-in-law of the Song family is somewhat related to Song's mother, but this sister-in-law is greedy for money. If she wants to win them over, she can do so by giving them some benefits.
As for Song's mother, Fang Jia is now thinking about what will happen to her when she is disliked by the whole family.
"Song Ziyu, these things are for the children. If you dare to ask me to give them to your mother, you're forcing me to die. Even if I die, I'll drag a few others down with me. I, Fang Jia, always keep my word."
As Fang Jia spoke, she quietly put a bag of silver coins inside the quilt.
When she first left the Marquis' Mansion, she had a lot of money with her.
Although she gave some to her mother, she still had a lot left, enough for her to live on. Later, she met Song Ziyu, and feeling sorry for him, she gave her money to Song Ziyu.
Of course he didn't need it at first, but at that time his father had just gotten into trouble and the family needed money, and his eldest brother had beaten someone to death outside.
The family of the deceased must pay two hundred taels of silver as compensation.
In the end, Fang Jia's money was used. Fang Jia was stupid at that time. She only wanted to help her lover solve the problem, so she gave all her money to Song Ziyu.
Now she has no money.
Seeing the things and money that Yun Qiao had people send, Fang Jia felt reassured and safe.
Naturally, he is no longer afraid of the Song family.

After Xiaotao returned, she explained everything to Yunqiao.
"I originally wanted to escort them in personally and say a few words of concern, but as soon as I got to the door, I saw them arguing. I also heard Miss Fang Jia crying. I was afraid she would know that I had seen what happened at the Song family, so I didn't go in."
Yes, when Fang Jia was in the inner courtyard of the Marquis' Mansion, she was passionate and unrestrained, and she was obsessed with love.
Every time she saw Yun Qiao reading a storybook, she would smile and joke, and then say with a smile that what she envied most was the love in the storybook.
Now she is probably afraid that Yun Qiao will see her living such a miserable life.
Yun Qiao nodded slightly. "I understand. You did the right thing. But I'm worried that those things will be snatched away by that evil mother-in-law from the Song family."
Xiao Tao was surprised: "I don't know about this. It's my fault. I should have delivered the things to Miss Fang Jia before leaving."
Yun Qiao immediately stood up and said softly, "It's not your fault. I'll go check on her in a few days. By the way, what does her husband look like?"
Xiao Tao then said, "I did see him. He was handsome and dignified, and looked like a gentleman, thin and tall. However, he was arguing with Mother Song at the time, so I didn't dare to stare at him."
Yun Qiao then started to laugh.
"This Fang Jia, she said she wanted to find a handsome man, and she really found a handsome man."
Xiao Tao muttered softly, "In terms of handsomeness, he can't compare to the Marquis. Our Marquis is the handsome man."
"Xiao Tao, Xiao Tao, love isn't just about looks. Likes and dislikes are also important. Of course, family background and character also matter."
Family background is based on money, but character is more important.
Speaking of which, Chen Jingyan is a pretty good person.
He is handsome, rich, powerful, and his character is pretty good.
He is indeed a good candidate for marriage, but being good does not necessarily mean he is suitable for marriage. One's own conditions also matter.
For someone like her, marrying a marquis would be a blessing, let alone marrying a steward under the marquis.
So now she can only be a concubine of the Marquis.
Yun Qiao joked again that she wanted to find a husband for Xiao Tao.
Frightened Xiaotao immediately turned around and ran out.
Yun Qiao has been staying at the Marquis' Mansion these days and hasn't gone anywhere.
Little Zhaoyuan was having a lot of fun playing here. Yun Qiao felt relieved to see that he liked it. The Marquis designated Zhaoyuan to be raised by Mother Zhu.
Yun Qiao also met Zhu's mother several times. Zhu's mother was honest and reliable, and was very patient with children.
Seeing that her brother was very happy here, Chen Yuan was also happy. Her brother had found a good home. When her brother grew up, the two siblings would be together.
Yun Qiao was thinking that once Zhao Yuan had adapted to the place and Fang Jia's affairs were dealt with, they would go back to the Marquis' Mansion.
The novelty of the village only lasts for the first few days. After living here for such a long time, I feel bored.
Yun Qiao walked around the fields and towns around the village, thinking it was all a trip. She would never see such scenes of men farming and women weaving in modern times.
It was just unfortunate that I happened to see an accident.
Yun Qiao was just about to choose a place for a picnic when she saw a scene happening in the fields in the distance. She saw several young and strong men surrounding a few old farmers and whipping them.
If he hadn't seen it, it would have been fine, but since he saw it today, Yun Qiao naturally sent someone to ask about it.
If she was not mistaken, this piece of land belonged to the Marquis's mansion.
The people in this village actually whipped the tenant farmers in broad daylight.
Xiao Tao understood and walked over with two servants.
"What's going on? My aunt is resting nearby. What are you fighting for? I can hear so much crying."
The leading steward immediately stepped forward and said, "We are in charge of the people below us. Since we have disturbed the aunt, let's change the time."
"Remember this, everyone. Pay me the rent you owe me, not a cent less. Anyone who dares to pay less will be beaten today and handed over to the government tomorrow. Don't you think about whose land you are farming? This is the property of the Marquis of Zhenbei in Jingdu."
After the man finished shouting, he gave a few instructions and left.
A group of beaten old farmers were left behind, squatting with their heads down, crying and saying that it was difficult to farm the land.
Xiao Tao wanted to ask a few more questions, but no one dared to. Seeing that Xiao Tao was from the Marquis' Mansion, they all dispersed and left.
"What happened over there?" Yun Qiao asked, not in the mood to eat.
"It's about the rent collection. I heard an old woman crying and saying that this year's rent is even higher than last year's. They are very afraid of the people on the farm. I wanted to ask them for details, but they wouldn't tell me."
"This matter must be related to Aunt Xu's family on the farm. The Marquis hasn't been back for a while."
"Miss, are you thinking about the Marquis?" Xiao Tao asked, then suddenly said, "No, are you thinking about helping the common people?"
