Chapter 114 Selling the House



Huang Wanzhen concealed her sadness where he couldn't see her. She was making a fuss not for the money or property, but to completely cut off ties with the Zheng family.

She knew that in this era, women who divorced almost never had a good ending.

After a woman returns home, there are only two outcomes: one is to be sent far away, and the other is to be married again. In order to prevent trouble from her previous husband's family, she has to bring gifts and visit the family in advance to say hello. If she wants to calm the situation, she has to make concessions.

Huang Wanzhen still wants to make a living in Beijing, so it is inevitable that she will let the Zheng family know that she can make money. What if someone is jealous and instigates the Zheng family to seize her property? Regardless of the consequences, this matter is quite disgusting. Huang Wanzhen does not want to leave herself with so many worries.

She'll break up with them in advance and make a big scene, letting the Zheng family know that she's a desperate person. No matter how tough you are, you'll be afraid of her when you meet her.

"Dang--" Huang Wanzhen threw the dagger on the ground and took two steps back.

"Just as you said, my heart is dead, and this body doesn't cost much money. You are a person I respect. If you can really do what you said, there is no need to drag you to hell." Huang Wanzhen pretended to be sincere and kept nagging.

Zheng Ruqing had no time to deal with her. "I'll be here soon. Hurry up and get the medicine. Apply it to me quickly. Ask Li San to get the doctor."

Zheng Ruqing was frightened all night and didn't sleep well. He was especially afraid that the crazy Huang would rush in and die with him.

He thought about refusing to pay those things, but he didn't want to kill anyone for it. Although there were many people who flattered him, if they really caught him, these people would be the first to turn against him, because only by pulling him down could they get ahead.

He is rich and powerful now, and there is no way he would take risks for a crazy woman.

Early in the morning, Zheng Ruqing wrapped a white cloth around his neck and took a rickshaw to the Ministry of Internal Affairs. In half a day, he completed the divorce of Zheng Yusang.

"I'll be here. Hand this bag to the Huang family girl." Zheng Ruqing still couldn't remember Huang Wanzhen's name. These things were not important to him before, and they would have nothing to do with him in the future. What he wanted to do most now was to draw a clear line between himself and this lunatic.

The attendant took the bag and tremblingly walked to Huang Wanzhen, who was five meters away, and said, "Madam, please take a look at the things the master gave you."

Huang Wanzhen had just taken the bag when she heard Zheng Ruqing scolding the attendant from a distance, "Brainless thing! What young mistress? She has nothing to do with the Zheng family anymore."

After cursing, he still felt a tightness in his chest. "Huang family girl, stop it now. Don't make trouble anymore. I've already arranged everything for you. According to customs, a divorced woman who wants to remarry must obtain the consent of her previous husband's family. I have already written the divorce agreement for you. You don't have to pay a penny. The Zheng family agrees to let you marry someone else, and you are not allowed to visit the Zheng family again!"

Huang Wanzhen lowered her head to check the contents of the bag. There were property deeds, checks, divorce papers, and a dowry list. "Got it."

After Huang Wanzhen ordered the food, she turned around and wanted to leave without saying anything else.

"Stop!" Zheng Ruqing jumped up in shock as if a cat had stepped on its tail. "Well, you just take the carriage away today. Today we have settled the matter. Don't come here again. Do you hear me?" Zheng Ruqing was so scared that he couldn't sleep all night last night. Coupled with excessive blood loss, he felt unwell. He urgently wanted to get rid of this plague god and go back to the house to have a good sleep.

Huang Wanzhen, who hadn't taken the carriage seriously, thought to herself, "Where's the carriage? I'll take it away right now."

Liuzi helped pull the carriage out onto the street and asked, head bowed, "Do you want me to take it back?"

Huang Wanzhen held the bag, crossed her arms, and pondered what to do.

Xiulan stepped forward and slapped Liuzi in the face. "Put away your evil thoughts. I will never like you. From now on, we will never see each other again, no matter how far apart we are."

After saying that, he pulled the horse's reins and moved closer to Huang Wanzhen. "Miss, let's go. This old horse will follow you if you pull the rope. It's just a little slower. If you get tired, just find a place to sit for a while."

Huang Wanzhen saw that Xiulan had an idea and nodded immediately.

In the backyard of Jixiangtang, Little Stone looked at the carriage and laughed foolishly, "Boss, this carriage is really beautiful. Can I drive it when I go to buy goods in the future?"

Huang Wanzhen frowned, and Xiao Shitou immediately admitted his mistake, "Boss, I was wrong, don't be angry."

"Don't call me boss anymore. We are a formal company now. I am the general manager. From now on, just call me manager! Call Miss Song the head of Dong's family!" Huang Wanzhen had been a boss for a while. Although it was satisfying, it also attracted the covetousness of others. Now she urgently wanted to hide behind Song Wenyin and live a peaceful life for a few days.

Little Stone was smart. Upon hearing that, he immediately changed his tone and said, "Okay, Manager."

Huang Wanzhen pressed her temple tiredly, "Well, tell them that we will start our annual leave from now on, which will last for seven days."

Little Stone said quickly, "Miss, the government doesn't allow us to celebrate the Spring Festival anymore, and officials don't have any holidays."

Huang Wanzhen wondered, "Don't you want to go home for the New Year?"

"My father died early, and my mother is gone. I grew up eating at many people's homes, and I always go back to my uncle's house for the New Year." Little Stone smiled, and a trace of pain appeared on his face. "My uncle has nothing to say about me, but my aunt doesn't want to see me. I thought it's better not to cause trouble for them."

Huang Wanzhen felt a little uncomfortable after hearing this. She was thinking about how to comfort him, and suddenly she thought of the year-end bonus in her previous life, "Little Stone..."

"Hey! It's not just because of this. The business in the shop has been good recently. Although the business has dropped these two days due to the New Year, it is still there. If we close the shop, those who want to find us to make clothes will be disappointed. Manager, just let me look after the shop, and I can make more money." The sadness just now seemed like an illusion, and Xiao Shitou asked to go to work with a smile.
