☆ 141. Chapter 141 Things about Ji Dacai's Family

Chapter 141 Things in Ji Dacai's Family

"Ah He, what's wrong with you?" Zhang Xiaoyu asked Ji He, handing him a bowl of lukewarm scented tea. After watching Ji He drink it, he fanned Ji He.

"Something happened, but it's not a good thing." Ji He paused, and seeing Zhang Xiaoyu still looking at him, he knew he was asking him to continue, "Ji Ruishan is gone."

Ji Ruishan, that is, Dashan, the only grandson of Ji Dacai's family.

"How could he be gone?!" Zhang Xiaoyu was shocked. He naturally remembered Ji Ruishan, that was Ji He's nephew, and he was still a child. How could he be gone? This was too sudden. When

Ji He thought of Ji Ruishan, he didn't know what to feel in his heart. When he first came to this world, he still lived in Ji Dacai's house. Whether in his memory or in his personal experience, this Dashan was not liked by people. Although this child was educated, he seemed to be born vicious. He was a child who dared to throw stones and clods of soil at his uncle, daring to express his contempt. How could such a child be liked? But it was a young life after all. Hearing that he was dead, Ji He felt very sad.

Ji He said: "He fell into a small ditch and drowned."

Zhang Xiaoyu couldn't believe it and asked: "A small ditch? Drowned? Wasn't there anyone around at the time? His luck was too bad!"

"Isn't that right? It's really not good to get angry. But it's not surprising. People have drowned in small ditches before, just very rarely."

"The only grandson in the family died. That family must be very sad, right? Did you see it?" Zhang Xiaoyu asked. He always felt that the death of Ji Dashan alone would not make Ji He look like this. Ji He was not the kind of person who could not let go of things. He felt that there must be other things. He was a little worried that Ji Dacai's family would embarrass Ji He because of this matter again. Even if they were not easy to bully now, it was annoying to be annoyed by them.

Ji He sneered and said, "It's more than just sad. That family is going to be in chaos! Now they are like mad dogs, biting people everywhere! I came back just now to settle this matter with them. That family is really hopeless. Originally, someone in their family died, and everyone should have sympathized with them. Now that there is such a commotion, I guess no one dares to get close to their family, otherwise they will be held hostage by their family."

Ji He told Zhang Xiaoyu what happened. It turned out that Ji Dashan died, and Ji Dacai's family was all very sad. In the end, Feng suddenly went crazy and said that someone from Ji Dafa's family killed Ji Dashan. She had no evidence. The so-called reason was that Ji Qing was almost killed by someone in that way. Now that Ji Dashan died like this, it must be Ji Dafa's family who came to take revenge. How could others believe her? They just thought that she was crazy because her grandson died. As a result, she said that Ji Qing should have died like that, but Ji Qing didn't die. Now Ji Ruishan died instead of Ji Qing, saying that Ji Qing was responsible for Ji Ruishan's death. This was even more unreasonable. She went to Ji Dafa's house and was thrown out by Ji Dafa.

Feng was still lingering in front of Ji Dafa's house and making a lot of noise. In the end, she was tricked by Ji Qing and admitted that Ji Shun had harmed Ji Qing.

"The reputation of their family is over now!"

Zhang Xiaoyu was very angry at first, but later he felt very happy when he heard the result and clapped his hands to celebrate.

Ji He smiled and said, "It's not just the reputation that's over. Feng had a stroke."

Feng was tricked by Ji Qing and admitted what her second son Ji Shun had done. She was pointed at and slapped by Ji Dacai, and she had a stroke all of a sudden. Ji He had already been hit hard by becoming the son-in-law of the Duke, and this time it was even worse. After several stimulations, Feng finally couldn't bear it anymore and had a stroke.

Zhang Xiaoyu thought that this was really a case of evil being rewarded with evil. Feng had done a lot of bad things in her life, but she always found excuses for herself, and she kept making excuses for Ji He's affairs. Now she was finally driven half to death by herself. At this time, a stroke is a very serious madness. Some people are paralyzed in bed for the rest of their lives, unable to take care of themselves and in great pain. Even if some are lucky enough to be able to walk again, they will eventually live cautiously and will never be able to live happily again.

Feng's stroke is said to be very serious.

Zhou Guihua also fell ill because of the loss of her most beloved son. Both women in the family fell down. Ji Xiaoyu and Ji Xiaoxiang were still young, so they could only call back Jin Cui Niang, who lived with Ji Shun in the town, and Ji Xiaoshi of course came back with them.

Ji Shun was very angry when he heard that it was his mother who told his story. He returned to the town soon after being pointed at by the villagers.

Ji Xiao was also very sad when he lost his only son. He was able to stand up straight in this family because he had a son. Even his smart second brother was not as good as him in this respect. Even if his parents loved his second brother more, he didn't care at all, because he had a son. Now this son who made him stand up straight died like this. He felt that his waist collapsed all of a sudden, and he felt that he had lost his spirit.

Ji Xiuer was really troubled to see her mother's family become like this. Why did her family's life become like this? Everything was obviously fine! Ji Xiuer persuaded her father and mother, and then persuaded her sister-in-law and brother. Her mouth was dry. Finally, she quarreled with Jiang Kang in anger after returning home.

Jiang Kang was scolded by Ji Xiuer and was very angry, but he still held back and didn't scold back. In the end, he went to coax Ji Xiuer. There was no way, who made Ji Xiuer the adopted daughter of Wang Zhubo? Now Jiang Wanguan was cold to him, and he could only rely on this father-in-law! Recently, this godfather-in-law has been very close to him. He can't lose such a big backer just because of a quarrel with Ji Xiuer, so he should be patient with her first and wait for his relationship with Wang Zhubo to get better, so good that he can directly recognize Wang Zhubo as his godfather. Will he still care about Ji Xiuer at that time? Ji Xiuer is not Wang Zhubo's biological daughter, she is just a godfather!

When Ji Xiuer was anxious about her mother's family, her eldest brother suddenly came to her in high spirits and said that he had another son.

Ji Xiuer thought that her eldest sister-in-law Zhou Guihua was pregnant again, but when she heard what Ji Xiao said, she almost went crazy!

"You said that Taohong's thing was done by you?!"

Ji Xiuer finally had some reason and lowered her voice, but her eyes were wide open and her eyes were extremely scary. She was really mad at her eldest brother. How could her eldest brother do such a thing? Thinking about what happened in Qingshan Village, she scolded Tian Jinduo and said that he was worse than pigs and dogs. What was the result? The person who did this was actually her eldest brother! Then who is she? Isn't this scolding herself?

Ji Xiao nodded and said, "I was also confused at the time. Sister, you must help me now! I have already made it clear that Tao Hong gave birth to your eldest brother's son! I saw the child, he is very cute and looks like me! I only have this one son now, I must snatch him away! You don't want our Ji family to be cut off, do you?"

Ji Xiuer scolded, "How do you know that our Ji family will be cut off? You are not in your seventies and eighties and can't give birth to a son! Our family is not without money. Even if the eldest sister-in-law and the second sister-in-law can't give birth, we can still buy a concubine! What are you afraid of? That woman's son cannot be kept! The second brother's reputation has been ruined, do you want to be like him?"

Ji Xiuer thought that her reputation had actually been bad for a long time. The reason why she was able to marry Jiang Kang in the first place was somehow leaked, and now many people think that she shamelessly framed Jiang Kang. She didn't show it on the surface, but she was so angry that she wanted to vomit blood.

Ji Xiao said, "How can it be so easy to give birth?! It's not like your eldest and second sister-in-law can't give birth. It's just that they are destined to have few sons. It's useless to find more women. I'm afraid this is the only root of our Ji family! Now he lives with those people, he will starve to death sooner or later! No, we must get him out! Sister, you must help! Brother begs you!"

Ji Xiao is very obsessed with his son now. When Ji Dashan died, he fell into a fear of not having a son. He wanted to have another son. If he didn't have a son, his status in the family would definitely plummet, and he wouldn't be able to stand up straight even outside. It was this fear that made him very eager for the son born by Tao Hong.

Ji Xiu'er was really forced by Ji Xiao and promised him that she would find a way.

While Ji Xiao was trying to get another son, Ji Shun was not idle either.

Ji Shun returned to the town alone. He was getting more and more angry and felt that his life was really dark. Then he met his sunshine in this darkness. This sunshine

was none other than Zhang Lan.

Zhang Lan had not lived a particularly good life since she got married, because that was not the one he was willing to marry. In addition, Zhang Liang's lukewarm attitude towards him made him feel even more painful. When Ji Jun passed the examination and became the son-in-law of the county magistrate, Zhang Lan's life became better and better. Later, Taohong came back. The Zhang family was ashamed in the village because of Taohong's burden. Fortunately, there were relatives on Zhang Lan's side, so Zhang Lan's life became better. Maybe it was because his life in her husband's family was too comfortable, which made him feel even more dissatisfied. He always felt that he was too wronged to marry such a family. So he often ran out, except to Qingshan Village, he often ran to the town.

Because of Ji Jun, a relative, Zhang Lan often ran to the Four Seasons Restaurant, sat in the Four Seasons Restaurant and looked at the Deshui Restaurant opposite, secretly hating Ji He and Zhang Xiaoyu in her heart.

Over time, Zhang Lan became familiar with Ji Shun. One felt that life was boring, and the other felt that life was hopeless. The two had a lot in common, so they fell in love with each other.

☆ 142. Chapter 142 Zhang Li Niang was divorced

Chapter 142 Zhang Li Niang was divorced

When Zhang Xiaoyu heard Zhang Shan say that Zhang Li Niang was asking for an audience in front of the manor gate, he couldn't help but glance at Ji He who was beside him, and Ji He also looked at him.

Zhang Xiaoyu felt that Zhang Li Niang had caused Ji He to be pushed into the river by Ji Jun and injured so badly, what was she doing here?

Ji He thought that Zhang Li Niang had been bullying Zhang Xiaoyu for so many years, and now Zhang Daniu's family was in such a situation, what was she doing here? She wasn't coming to bother Zhang Xiaoyu again, was she? But when he thought that Duke Zheng and the others hadn't left yet, and there was a precedent with Zheng Yu, Zhang Li Niang shouldn't have such courage. Because of this thought, he was even more curious about what Zhang Li Niang was doing here.

"Master Ji, she said she had something important to say, something that would make Master Ji vent his anger." Zhang Shan said.

"Ah He, let her in." Zhang Xiaoyu said, when he heard that Zhang Li Niang knew something that would make Ji He vent his anger, he became a little interested, thinking that it wouldn't matter if they met, and he heard that Zhang Li Niang's legs were broken, so how could she have any offensive power?

Ji He nodded and wanted Zhang Shan to bring someone over. But after thinking about it, he decided to go by himself. He thought it was better to meet such an annoying person at the door.

Zhang Li Niang came with a man who was less than 20 years old and looked a little ugly. He stared at Ji He and Zhang Xiaoyu with his eyes. It was obvious that he had some mental problems. He pulled Zhang Li Niang here in a donkey cart. Now the donkey cart was parked in front of the gate of Deshui Manor. The donkey was eating grass on the roadside. Zhang Li Niang sat on the donkey cart, her face pale and haggard, staring at the gate of Deshui Manor and the plaque on the gate. She felt sour and bitter in her heart. She thought that all this could have been hers. How much Ji He liked her at the beginning, but she looked down on him. She used a little trick to make him fall into the water and get injured. At that time, she hoped that he would die. As a result, he not only did not die, but also worked hard. Now, in just two short years, he has already built such a big family business.

Zhang Li Niang thought that this was God playing a trick on her? Obviously, I tried so hard to live a life of wealth and glory, but I could not succeed, and this kind of life was let go by myself. The most ridiculous thing is that in the end, this kind of life fell on Zhang Xiaoyu, who grew up with me, the Zhang Xiaoyu who I always thought was humble and would live a miserable life like soaking in Coptis water in the future!

The door opened, and several people came out, among them were Ji He and Zhang Xiaoyu. Zhang Li

Niang looked at them and found that they seemed to have changed again, and seemed to be more handsome than the last time I saw them. Yes, the two country mud legs are getting more and more handsome, and they are dressed better than before. Standing there side by side, they are like a pair of golden boys, making people unable to look away.

"Zhang Li Niang, just say what you have to say."

Ji He saw Zhang Li Niang staring at them, frowned slightly, and said coldly. Seeing her embarrassed and miserable appearance, Ji He didn't want to bother with her.

Zhang Li Niang smiled and said, "You won't even let me in..."

Zhang Xiaoyu said, "If you have something to say, please say it quickly. If you don't want to, we won't force you."

Zhang Xiaoyu thought that Zhang Li Niang was like this, and she still came here with great energy. She must have something to say. Even if she was not allowed to go in to talk, she would still say it. This person is very ruthless and will never leave because of a little anger. And looking at her like this, she may be desperate.

Zhang Li Niang is indeed desperate. She has been divorced by the Yu family.

Speaking of this, it can be said that Zhang Li Niang has a bad fate, or that she has been badly harmed.

Zhang Li Niang's legs were broken because of her bad reputation. Not only did her parents-in-law dislike her, but even her husband was annoyed with her and almost listened to his parents and divorced her back home. However, Zhang Li Niang still has some skills. I don't know what words she used to coax her husband back to his heart. Zhang Li Niang knew that if she was divorced and sent home, she would definitely live a worse life. How could her family afford to treat her injuries? If she was divorced and sent home, her legs would not only be lame, but would definitely be lame. It might even be more serious. She might not even be able to walk!

Zhang Li Niang didn't want to make herself worse. She knew that if she was divorced and sent home, she might not even have food and clothing. She would have to listen to the noises of her half-crazy mother and her brother Shuang'er, who had just been sent home and whose mental state was even more unstable than her mother. She was afraid that she would go crazy.

Just when Zhang Li Niang wanted to take good care of her injuries and plan for the future, God dealt her another heavy blow.

Zhang Li Niang was pregnant, but she had a miscarriage.

It stands to reason that the doctor should have known that Zhang Li Niang was pregnant when she was treating her injuries, but the doctor did not find out. The doctor invited was none other than Doctor Hua.

Doctor Hua was a relative. Inviting him was to save money and to save face.

But Doctor Hua was a half-baked doctor. He had treated patients for many years without any serious problems because he had never treated any serious diseases. He pushed most of the serious diseases to the doctors in the town. Those who could not be pushed away must be poor people who looked down on the doctors in the town. Even if they died in the end, it was not his fault. He had no problem taking pulses and treating injuries, but this time he was not attentive when treating Zhang Li Niang's injuries because it was a job that did not make money. Naturally, he was not attentive, and as a result, he did not diagnose the child in Zhang Li Niang's belly.

The child was tenacious and fragile, and he was beaten up but could not be knocked out. But because Doctor Hua did not notice his existence, he left because of Yu Dalang's entanglement.

Yu Dalang was angry that Zhang Li Niang had embarrassed him, so although he kept Zhang Li Niang, he was cold and angry. Zhang Li Niang could only coax him, and coaxed him to the kang. As a result, when Zhang Li Niang cried out in pain, he thought she had touched her wound, but she was actually a miscarriage. Yu Dalang was so scared that he softened at the time.

Yu Dalang was frightened and angry to begin with. Later, his parents said that the child might not be his, which further provoked his anger. Doctor Hua made Zhang Li Niang lose her child because of his own fault. He was worried that if Zhang Li Niang stayed in the Yu family, it would become a problem for him, so he simply said that Zhang Li Niang was injured and might not be able to get pregnant again. With

these heavy crimes piled up, Yu Dalang's only affection for Zhang Li Niang was worn out, and Zhang Li Niang was divorced by the Yu family.

Zhang Li Niang begged in vain, so she asked Yu Kaoshan's family to call her uncle Yu Huaishu's son Yu Mutou, and asked Yu Mutou to take her home in their donkey cart. Yu

Kaoshan's family didn't want to go to Qingshan Village in the first place. They knew what Zhang Li Niang's family was like now. If they went there, they might be laughed at by the people in Qingshan Village, and they might even be beaten by Yu Huaihua. Why bother going? So they threw a divorce letter to Zhang Li'niang, and then went to find Yu Mutou, of course in private, and they couldn't tell Yu Huaishu and his wife, for fear that they would stop them from coming.

Zhang Li'niang asked Yu Mutou to drive her to Deshuizhuang. Zhang Li'niang

thought that she had fallen to this point, she was unwilling, she wanted revenge, and the people who hurt her like this were Ji Junjia and Hua Xingjia!

"I want to tell you some people's secrets, and you have to agree to one condition of mine!"

Zhang Li'niang said to Ji He and Zhang Xiaoyu, she used to look down on them, now she is jealous and envious of them, but she doesn't hate them, and now only they can help her take revenge on the people she wants to take revenge on, and make her hopeless life have a glimmer of hope. Zhang Li'niang decided to seize this glimmer of hope!

☆ 143. Chapter 143 Exposed

Chapter 143 Revealing

"What conditions?"

Ji He wondered who Zhang Li Niang could know the secret of. She was just a country woman. She was a country girl before marriage and a country woman after marriage. Could the secret that made her think she could exchange conditions with him be really important? He had some doubts, but he still asked. If the conditions Zhang Li Niang asked were not excessive, he might agree.

Zhang Li Niang said, "I want you to give me one thousand taels of silver! Help me leave here!"

Zhang Li Niang wanted to leave this ghost place. In this place, her reputation was already ruined. If she had money in her hands, she could still marry again, but the people who were willing to marry her must all be attracted by her money. Would the man who was attracted by her money be a good man? No! Zhang Li Niang would not be stupid enough to marry such a man. After experiencing too many things, she wanted to marry a man who was good to her, so she could only leave here and go to a place where her reputation was unknown, and then start her life again.

Ji He sneered and said, "One thousand taels? How dare you ask that?"

One thousand taels is a large sum of money. Many people can't save so much money in their lifetime even if they put all their efforts into it, including people in the city and town. If it's a country where people rely on farming and helping others to do small business, it's even more impossible. Zhang Li Niang asked for one thousand taels of silver. She was really greedy.

Zhang Li Niang said, "Don't you want to know the secret I told you? I think my secret is worth this money!"

Ji He said, "You think it's worth it, but maybe it's just a few words that I think are worthless. You should leave."

Zhang Li Niang bit her lip and looked at Ji He. Seeing Ji He's cold attitude, she looked at Zhang Xiaoyu again.

Zhang Xiaoyu asked, "You want to leave here, what about your mother? And your brother."

Zhang Li Niang bit her lips even harder. She didn't think about taking them away. She didn't have time to think about it. She only thought about herself. Now she was afraid that she would annoy Zhang Xiaoyu if she brought it up. After all, her mother had been so bad to Zhang Xiaoyu, and Zheng Yu had enjoyed Zhang Xiaoyu's good life and wanted to kill Zhang Xiaoyu. If she offered to take them away, she might not be able to leave!

Zhang Xiaoyu knew Zhang Li'niang's answer and sighed in his heart. He thought that there was really no good person in the family he used to live in. He thought that Yu Huaihua had fulfilled her responsibilities as a mother to her children. No matter how bad Zhang Li'niang was, she should be filial to Yu Huaihua. In the end, for her own sake, she even abandoned this little filial piety.

"One thousand taels is not enough, then five hundred taels? The lowest is one hundred taels! It can't be less!"

Zhang Li'niang kept lowering the price herself in a self-destructive way. She really wanted to leave this hellhole.

At this time, Yu Mutou, who had been silent on the side, suddenly yelled and shouted while grabbing Zhang Li'niang's arm and began to shake it.

"You can't leave! You have to stay and be my wife! If you leave, I will catch up with you and kill you and throw you into the mountains to feed the wild wolves! You can't leave!"

"Let me go! Let me go! It hurts! It hurts!"

Zhang Li'niang was very painful to be grabbed. After being shaken like this, her legs began to hurt again, and she kept screaming.

Zhang Xiaoyu frowned and said, "Yu Mutou, let go. If

you want to make trouble, take her away, don't make trouble here!" Ji He said to Mutou, "Yu Mutou, if you shake her to death, she can't be your wife."

Yu Mutou stopped and said to Zhang Li Niang, "Don't leave. You are divorced by your husband now, so you can be my wife. If you dare to leave, I will break your other leg too!"

Ji He's mouth twitched. He thought that he thought this man was stupid just now because his eyes were straight. Now it seems that he is not completely stupid, but he is fierce enough when he is smart. It's better to be completely stupid! Zhang Li Niang was targeted by this man. If she can't escape, I really don't know if she will jump from one fire pit to another.

Zhang Li Niang's pale and haggard face was stained with two blushes because of anger and anxiety. She really wanted to strangle Yu Mutou to death. Why did she think this idiot was easy to control? Now, this idiot suddenly went crazy and wanted to be his wife. It was just a big dream! But now she hasn't negotiated the terms with Ji He yet, and she can't offend this fool, so she can only hold back.

Zhang Li Niang gritted her teeth and said, "Ji He, do you agree or not?"

Ji He said, "Tell me whose secret it is about, I want to see if I'm interested. If you tell me the secret of the man in front of you, even if he has a secret in your heart that can behead you, I won't be interested! If you don't tell me, just leave."

"It's about Ji Jun!"

"Ji Jun?" Ji He raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, "You want to say that Ji Jun passed the exam and he used other means, right?"

Zhang Li Niang's eyes widened, wondering how Ji He knew? !

Ji He knew that he guessed right when he saw Zhang Li Niang's expression and eyes. It turned out that Ji Jun's passing the exam really had a hidden story. In fact, he just used his suspicion to deceive Zhang Li Niang. The reason for such suspicion was that Ji Jun's ranking in the exam was higher than Ji Qing. He said he was lucky. Ji He would rather believe that he used other means, but he didn't expect to be deceived by him. Did Zhang Li Niang really know about this, or did she just suspect Ji Jun like herself? If she knew, how could Ji Jun let her go? I think even if she knew, there would be no evidence.

Zhang Xiaoyu said, "Your secret is no longer valuable, you can go."

"No! I also know about Hua Xing! Hua Xing ruined Ji and your reputation, don't you hate him? I can help you ruin his reputation! I know some things about him, I can definitely do it! You just need to help me heal my leg and give me some money!" Zhang Li Niang said hurriedly.

At this time, Zheng Ze and Zheng Yuan came out, and there were several guards coming out with them. Zheng Yuan waved his hand, and these people went up to surround the donkey cart.

Zhang Li Niang was shocked. As soon as she saw the demeanor of these two people, she knew that these two were the two sons of the Duke of Guo that everyone was talking about. They were Zhang Xiaoyu's brothers. What were they going to do? Did they want to avenge Zhang Xiaoyu? !

Zheng Ze asked Zhang Li Niang if there was any evidence about Ji Jun? Let her tell the truth, otherwise she will bear the consequences.

How could Zhang Li Niang not tell the truth? She was just guessing, but she said that it must be Ji Jun's brother Ji Qiao who got him the test questions. She also said that now Ji Jun has become the son-in-law of the county magistrate, and he will definitely get the test questions in this autumn exam! Zhang Li Niang thought that Ji Jun was ruthless to her, so don't blame her for being ungrateful!

Zheng Ze stopped talking.

Zheng Yuan smiled and said, "Do you know the secret of that Hua Langzhong? Tell me too?"

In the end, Zhang Li Niang said everything. She couldn't not say it. She could clearly see the disgust for her in the eyes of the Zheng brothers, as if they wanted to beat her to the eighteenth level of hell! She was afraid that if she didn't tell the truth, they would immediately find a reason to send her to jail, or even kill her secretly! So she could only be honest, but because of this, she lost even the last glimmer of hope!

"If you have resentment in your heart, go and take revenge yourself. Can you watch them live freely while you are so miserable? Go quickly, just think of this as paying off the debt you have done to Xiao Yu." Zheng Yuan said to Zhang Li Niang.

How could Zhang Li Niang not understand what this meant? This was to let her use what she knew to turn Hua Xing's family and Ji Jun's family upside down. She was also happy about it. She was already in this situation, so when would she wait? !

Because there was no hope of leaving, and Zheng Yuan's words were still there, Zhang Li Niang went to Qingshan Village.

Zhang Li'niang went to the village chief's house first and asked Lin Yongxin to gather all the villagers. In front of everyone in the village, she said that she felt that she had fallen to the current situation because of her deep sins. She wanted to repent and tell everything she knew. Then she said that it was Ji Jun who deliberately pushed Ji He into the river. This was a lie, but she hated Ji Jun and had to say it. Then she said that Ji Jun was not close to her on the surface, but the two of them had sworn to each other, but Ji Jun just played her and finally married the county magistrate's daughter. She said that in order to prevent her from marrying into the family, Ji Jun's mother Zhang Cui'e and Hua Langzhong's wife Yu teamed up to harm her and pushed her to Yu Dalang.

Zhang Cui'e and Hua Langzhong's wife were so angry that they scolded Zhang Li'niang for talking nonsense and wanted to beat her, but they were stopped by the people arranged by the village chief.

When Zhang Li'niang saw this situation, she was even more happy to say it. Anyway, she had offended people, so she just said it all at once! It would be better to knock them down, so that they will not dare to harm her in the future, otherwise it will be revenge!

"The medicine that harmed me was given by Doctor Hua! Doctor Hua is a fool doctor. He caused the baby in my belly to die, and he also wanted to make my legs unable to walk! He also has some cheap medicine in his hand. I don't know how many people in our village and other villages he has harmed!"

Zhang Li'niang said crying, but she also knew that it would be better to stop talking about this topic. After all, it was not glorious. No one would be happy if the villagers were implicated, so she talked about several people in the village in succession, such as the baby in Zhang's sister-in-law's belly should not have been aborted, and it was all because of the problem with the medicine for preserving the pregnancy prescribed by Doctor Hua. The arm of the eldest brother of the Li family was originally just a minor injury, but it was all because Doctor Hua treated it more and more seriously in order to make money, and finally he could not do heavy work. The old man of the Wang family did not have any serious illness, but he died of Chinese medicine by Doctor Hua.

The more the villagers listened, the more they felt that what Zhang Li'niang said was true, and they all glared at Doctor Hua.

Doctor Hua's legs felt a little weak, and everything Zhang Li'niang said was all right.

Suddenly someone shouted, "My mother is taking the medicine prescribed by Doctor Hua! Could there be a problem?! No, I have to find a doctor in town to take a look! If there is a problem, I will never let you go!"

The man yelled at Doctor Hua, and then hurried away.

Zhang Li'niang talked a lot. She was still very good at talking. What she said was very believable. Most people began to half-believe it, and the other half believed it 90%.

Ji Dasheng took Zhang Cui'e back home. He felt that something big had happened. Would it affect his son's future? If it really did, what should he do? He slapped Zhang Cui'e so hard that all the gold hairpins on her head flew off, and his hands were covered with powder. He looked at the powder on his hands and was so angry that he threw his hands out. He had to go and tell his son and Shuang'er!

Zhang Cui'e cried loudly at home.

Zhang Lan's mother heard it and felt happy in her heart. She thought, you can cry too, you deserve it. After such a fuss, how can you say that I don't know how to discipline my children? You are even worse!

☆ 144. Chapter 144: Destruction

Chapter 144: Destruction

After Zhang Li Niang finished what she wanted to say, she was so excited that she seemed to have all the energy in her body, and then she became limp as if all the bones in her body had been pulled out. She wondered what she would do with the rest of her life. Her family was in a mess, she had a broken leg, and she was divorced. With her family that had offended the Duke's Mansion, who would dare to marry her? Except for the ugly man in front of her who made her want to vomit!

Zhang Li Niang looked at Yu Mu and struggled in her heart. She didn't want to go home and live with her mother who was already like crazy and her brother Shuang'er who was either in a daze or quarreling with her mother, nor did she want to marry this man, but it seemed that she had only these two options!

"Why? What is this for?! I am obviously the most beautiful girl in this village, and I should be the best girl to marry in this village. Why am I in a desperate situation now!"

Zhang Li Niang was in great pain. In the end, she chose Yu Mu, because if her leg was not cured, let alone limping, she might not even be able to walk. At least her uncle's family was doing well. If the idiot doctor Hua was wrong, her legs might be cured. Then she would still have hope. Even if she was lame, it was better than not being able to walk. And at least her uncle's family was better than her mother's family. She could have enough food there.

Zhang Li Niang asked Yu Mu to take her back to her mother's family. She told Yu Huaihua what happened and asked her to make the decision for her and marry into her uncle's family.

Yu Huaihua agreed. She should grab a hope at this time. At least if her daughter married into her uncle's family, she could bring some benefits to the family in the future.

Zheng Yu looked at Yu Mu with contempt in his heart, but when he thought that he couldn't even marry such a man, he could only live with Yu Huaihua, the crazy woman, until he died, he started to yell again.

Zhang Li Niang just relied on Yu Huaishu's family, which made Yu Huaishu and his wife very angry. Their son was ugly and stupid, but they were not willing to let him marry Zhang Li Niang. But their son was willing and would make a fuss if he was not allowed to marry. In the end, they agreed. Then, Zhang Li Niang started her life in Yu Huaishu's house. She thought she could control Yu Mu and let him protect her, but she was wrong. Although Yu Huaishu was very determined to marry her, he was also very dependent on his parents and insisted that his parents did nothing wrong, so she was very angry with her in-laws. What was worse was that Yu Mu would sometimes beat her when he was sick and watch her closely, which made her miserable.

Yu Kaoshan's family was also laughed at because the former daughter-in-law married to the same village, and they were also despised because Zhang Li Niang exposed that their family and Yu Shihe had colluded to plan for Zhang Li Niang to marry into their family. It was difficult for Yu Dalang to marry a wife again. The wife he married later was not satisfactory, and the family was noisy.

Of course, this is all in the future.

Doctor Hua and his wife were trembling with fear because they were exposed by Zhang Li Niang. The villagers saw them and hid away, waiting for the man whose mother was taking the medicine given by Doctor Hua to take her to the town for treatment. After showing the medicine prescribed by Doctor Hua to the doctor, Doctor Hua's family began to be smashed, scolded, and asked for debts, because the doctor in the town said that the man's mother would not get better after taking Doctor Hua's medicine. If she was lucky, she could survive, but if she was unlucky, she would die. Now many families in the village who had been treated by Doctor Hua came to make trouble, especially those who had died in the family. No one

went to the government to sue Doctor Hua. In these days, ordinary people were not willing to sue officials. They were naturally afraid of officials and afraid of spending money, but they would threaten, threatening that if Doctor Hua did not compensate them, they would sue the government. Doctor Hua

was afraid, so he naturally agreed, and then Doctor Hua's family was burdened with a lot of debts. All the money in the family was used to pay off the debts, and there was still a lot of debts that were not paid off.

Hua Xing's family was like a dog in the water, and everyone could hit them with a stick.

Zhang Cui'e was beaten by Ji Dasheng. It was useless to cry. She placed all her hopes on Ji Jun and Ji Qiao, hoping that they would take her out to live. She had long been tired of living in this village and wanted to live in the county town. But Ji Dasheng disagreed, saying that if she went there, it would only bring more trouble to the child.

Ji Dasheng first told Ji Qiao about this, but not Ji Jun, because Ji Jun had already left the county town and went to the autumn examination.

Ji Qiao hated Zhang Li'niang when he heard it, and thought that he must deal with Zhang Li'niang again. He asked Ji Dasheng to take care of his mother first, let her stay at home and wait for Ji Jun to pass the imperial examination. At that time, everything would be calm. Who in the village would dare to gossip about the juren master? And when that time comes, they will all be taken to live in the county town and let them be old masters and old ladies.

"Will your brother pass the exam this time? How can you be so sure?"

Ji Dasheng asked. He was very happy that his son could pass the exam, but he still had no confidence that his son would pass the exam. How could it be so easy to pass the exam? If it was so easy, how could there be so few candidates?

Ji Qiao said, "My brother will definitely pass! Don't worry, Dad!"

Ji Qiao almost told Ji Dasheng that Ji Jun was the son-in-law of the county magistrate, and Ji Jun had already told him everything. He would also be able to get the exam questions this time, and it was a sure thing for him to pass the exam! Thinking that his brother was now the son-in-law of the county magistrate, he already had a very high status in the Wang family. If his brother passed the exam again, he might be able to move up a level! Then let's see how he dealt with that bitch Wang Jiao'er! And Jian Hu, he would make him regret it!

At Deshui Manor, Xiaowu and Xiaoliu stood in front of Ji He.

"You said Jian Hu asked you to pass on a message that he wanted to see my brother-in-law?"

"Yes, he said he would come tomorrow, and at that time he would enter the West Mountain and then go to the bridge behind the manor." Xiaowu said respectfully.

"Master Ji, he said there was something very important." Xiao Liu said, "He is so cautious, is it something related to his father-in-law? Apart from his father-in-law and the county magistrate, who else does he have to fear?"

Ji He's heart moved, thinking that Jian Hu might have sensed the danger. Jian Hu is a good hunter, and good hunters have a good ability to predict danger, and Jian Hu is the best among them.

Ji He told Zheng Ze about this and let Zheng Ze decide.

Zheng Ze decided to meet Jian Hu. He had also seen that young man. He was an ambitious but tactful young man. He seemed to know something about Wang Zhubo and the county magistrate. If he was willing to provide some evidence, then he could make his plans faster.

Jian Hu came the next day, met Zheng Ze, bowed, and then apologized to Zheng Ze, told him about his situation, and told him all the crimes he knew about the county magistrate and Wang Zhubo. He just wanted to get out of this. He was willing to be a farmer hunter in the countryside in the future.

Ji He was also beside him. He sighed in his heart after hearing these words. He thought Jian Hu was really an extraordinary person. He was so practical. When it was time to move in, he did not hesitate to fight for the power and wealth he wanted. When it was time to withdraw, he married so neatly that he and his family were safe. Although he returned to the starting point in the end, he still had no loss. It was a pity for such a person. If he had not gone astray, he would really appreciate him. But now, he really hated him for being too smart and decisive. Why didn't he stick to his ambition? In this way, he would be more miserable and dared to hurt his Xiao Yu! Thinking of how he hurt Zhang Xiao Yu in order to withdraw from the marriage with the Zhang family, Ji He had no good feelings for Jian Hu.

"You once hurt my brother like that. Do you think I will let you go?"

Zheng Ze said coldly. He also knew that this person almost became his brother's husband, but this person dared to despise his brother and used such means to withdraw from the marriage.

Jian Hu lowered his head and said, "I also know that I was a bit mean at the beginning, but if I hadn't broken off the engagement, how could all this happen later? Ji He could never marry Xiao Yu, and you, the prince, couldn't find your brother. I will be punished for what I did at the beginning. Marrying Wang Zhubo's daughter is my retribution. If Wang Zhubo's daughter is not convicted because of her father, then I will never divorce her. We will torture each other for the rest of our lives."

This was Jian Hu's promise, in order to make Zheng Ze calm down and forgive him for the harm he had done to Zhang Xiaoyu.

Jian Hu sighed in his heart. It's not that he didn't regret giving up Zhang Xiaoyu. He also thought that if he married Zhang Xiaoyu, he would be able to get the power and wealth he had been striving for without any effort, but he knew that if he missed it, he missed it. This was the retribution from God. So with this realization, he quickly made a decision about his current situation and fought for his last chance to survive.

Zheng Ze looked at Jian Hu for a moment and asked him to continue to return to Wang Zhubo and the others.

Ji He knew that Zheng Ze had agreed to Jian Hu. In fact, after hearing what Jian Hu said, he also felt that this was okay. Without a rich life, without a bright future, and with a tigress-like down-and-out daughter who would make noises all her life by her side, this kind of life was already torture for Jian Hu.

A month later, the county magistrate, Zhubo and others were arrested and their homes confiscated.

Wang Jiao'er was innocent because she was a married woman. She was taken back to Qingshan Village by Jian Hu and began her life as a village woman. She still loved to wear bright red clothes, still loved to wear gold hairpins, still loved to put on makeup, and still cursed, but she was no longer the former Miss Wang.

Jian Hu's family was still good, and the worst was Ji Dasheng's family.

Ji Qiao was also arrested because she was Wang Zhubo's servant, and Ji Jun was also imprisoned because he was involved in the test question leak incident. The son and Shuang'er in the family were all in prison. Ji Dasheng and Zhang Cui'e were so anxious that they almost used all the valuable things in the family to save the two children, but the silver and money were like falling into a river, and disappeared without a sound.

Zhang Cui'e went to ask Lin Yongxin and Zhang Yu'e to ask them to ask Ji He and them, but was rejected by Zhang Yu'e. Because of the jade bracelet, Zhang Yu'e had long been disappointed with this sister, and this matter was of great importance, so she would not wade into the muddy water!

Everyone in the village avoided Ji Dasheng and his friends. Ji Dasheng was quite popular and was not ridiculed by others. But it was different for Zhang Cui'e and Ji Shi. They used to look down on others just because their families had successful people like Ji Jun and Ji Qiao. Now both of them felt like they had fallen from the clouds.

☆ 145. Chapter 145 The misfortune of Ji Dacai's family

Chapter 145 The Unlucky Events of Ji Dacai's Family

The Ji Dacai family has been experiencing bad luck one after another recently. Ji He, who was driven out of the family by them as a jinx, not only has his life improved, but also became the son-in-law of the Duke. The attitude and evaluation of the Duke's family towards them that day made the villagers gradually alienate themselves from them. Then the only grandson in the family died in an accident, which led to the incident of Ji Shun harming Ji Qing, which caused the reputation of their family to decline again. Feng also suffered a stroke because of this. These things have made Ji Dacai's family very busy. The only thing that makes people feel fortunate is that the family still has money, otherwise an ordinary family would be really anxious to death when encountering these things. However, Ji Xiu'er and Jiang Kang got into trouble, and their good days fell into greater chaos.

Jiang Kang and Ji Xiu'er were all arrested by the officials, and the crime was accomplices of rebellion, and the traitors were naturally people like Jingwang Mansion and County Magistrate Wang Zhubo.

Originally, Wang Zhubo was only Ji Xiuer's adoptive father, and she had nothing to do with Wang Zhubo's accident. However, the disaster was caused by Jiang Kang. Jiang Kang became Wang Zhubo's adopted son-in-law. With this relationship, he was even closer to Wang Zhubo, and even got in touch with Jing Wangfu. This time, Zheng Ze was ordered to investigate this matter, and he naturally couldn't escape the connection, and Ji Xiuer, as his daughter-in-law, couldn't escape either. A daughter married to someone else's family, but a daughter-in-law is one's own family.

As a result, Ji Dacai's family was really anxious.

They were not anxious when Jiang Kang was arrested, but they were anxious when Ji Xiuer got into trouble. After all, they were flesh and blood relatives. Feng's mouth was even more crooked in anxiety. Although she didn't speak clearly, her meaning was very clear, that is, she asked them to rescue Ji Xiuer no matter what.

But before they could think of any way, Ji Xiao and Ji Shun were also arrested by the officials who were eager to make meritorious deeds. Who asked them to manage some of Jiang Kang's industries?

The person was taken away from Ji Dacai's house. There was a lot of noise and many people in the village saw it.

Feng fainted in panic, but her family almost didn't care about her.

Ji Dacai went to the county government several times but returned empty-handed, so he went to ask Jiang Wanguan for help. Although he already knew that Jiang Kang was not Jiang Wanguan's son, but his nephew, and a nephew who was not particularly close to him after the family split up, Jiang Wanguan couldn't just ignore his nephew now that he had encountered such a big thing, right? In his heart, he actually had another idea, which was to let Jiang Wanguan ask Ji He for help. The imperial envoy who was handling this case was Zheng Ze, Zhang Xiaoyu's brother, and Ji He's elder brother-in-law. Asking them for help would definitely work. Even if he didn't go, he could ask Ji Lan and Ji Dafa to go, which would definitely work better than him talking. It

's not that Ji Dacai didn't want to ask in person, he was just afraid that it would be counterproductive if he went, and he didn't have such a thick skin, so he could only ask in a roundabout way.

Jiang Wanguan didn't even want to see Ji Dacai. He knew about Jiang Kang and Ji Xiu'er. Even a fool could know the purpose of Ji Dacai's visit at this time. But he couldn't stay out. Ji Dacai stopped him outside and begged him. He was very angry. He thought that Ji Dacai didn't look that hateful. It seemed that all the troubles in their family were caused by Feng. But if Ji Dacai hadn't been indulging in silence, how could it be possible?

Jiang Wanguan said everything he thought in his heart, asking Ji Dacai not to ask people to save Jiang Kang and Ji Xiu'er. If they were not guilty, they would be released naturally. If they really participated in the rebellion, then no one could save them, let alone them.

"Ji Dacai, it's already this time, and you still want to implicate Ji He, do you feel guilty? Even if Jiang Kang is not my biological son, I have treated him well. Even if I don't save him today, I can say that I have a clear conscience! But what about you? You are Ji He's biological father, what did you do? If you still have a little conscience, don't disturb his life anymore!"

Jiang Wanguan said, looking at Ji Dacai's flushed face, shook his head, and wondered how there could be such a father? As a good father who loves his son, he really couldn't understand. He is not Jiang Kang's biological father yet, but Jiang Kang is going to harm his biological son. Now seeing him fall to this point, he actually feels a little sorry for Jiang Kang in his heart. How could Ji Dacai not know how to cherish such a good son like Ji He?

Ji Dacai blushed when Jiang Wanguan said that. He felt ashamed that his roundabout thoughts were said so directly, but now his two sons and daughter and son-in-law are locked up. If they can't be rescued, what hope do they have for this family? !

Jiang Wanguan said to Ji Dacai, "I advise you not to go to Ji He. Even if it's not for Ji He's sake, for the sake of your children who are still in prison, don't go, unless you want to anger the Duke's family. At that time, the crime you can live with might become a capital crime!"

Ji Dacai was frightened and gave up the idea of ​​going to Ji He in person. He shamelessly went to ask Ji Dafa, but was scolded by Zhang at the gate.

"Bah! Shameless! Your son killed my son and you still want us to help plead for them? No, you still want us to ask your disciple Ah and Xiao Yu to save them? Do you still have that face? Go away, if you say these things again, I will report to the police and then I will put you in jail too!"

Zhang's scolding made the neighbors come out, and after hearing what she said, they also helped to speak for Ji Dacai.

Ji Dacai wanted to see Ji Dafa, and finally saw him, but Ji Dafa refused to help.

Ji Dafa said with a cold face: "Those who break the law should be punished! Don't you know this? You ask us to plead for mercy. Do you want the imperial envoy to bend the law for personal gain? What do you think about this?"

Jin Cuiniang suddenly popped up from the side and said, "Uncle, haven't we offended Ji He and Xiao Yu? I am a little worried that some people want to please them. Several people in our family will be framed even though they have done nothing wrong..."

"Are you saying that the prince will deliberately frame your family?!" Ji Dafa frowned.

"I didn't say that! I dare not say that!" Jin Cui Niang hurriedly apologized with a smile, "I just want to say that if the people below want to flatter the people above, they can make anything fake become real, so don't let the prince be fooled!"

"Nonsense!" Zhang looked at Jin Cui Niang and said angrily, "What kind of person is the prince? He can handle such a big case, and he can be fooled by a few subordinates? If you don't know anything, don't talk nonsense, otherwise I will have someone arrest you and see if you have any real evidence!"

Jin Cui Niang was frightened and shut up.

Ji Dacai scolded his daughter-in-law a few words, and then he could only leave with Jin Cui Niang in shame.

In less than half a day, the news of Ji Dacai's plea spread everywhere. Some sympathized with him, and some ridiculed him. They all moved further away from their home.

Ji He also knew about this, but he didn't care. If Ji Dacai really dared to come to the door, he would have a way to deal with it, but he was destined not to wait for Ji Dacai and the others. The Zheng family could not allow this to happen, and directly sent someone to pass the message to Ji Dacai's house. If they dared to disturb Ji and Xiao Yu's life, they would not have a good end.

"You jinx! Since you came in, there has been no good at home!"

Zhou Guihua scolded Taohong. After hearing the words from Zheng Guogong, Zhou Guihua found an excuse to scold Taohong. Looking at the child in her arms, her eyes were red. When the family was not doing well, she never thought that her man would bring a woman home for her. When the life was good, although she was a little worried, she was always on guard. Unexpectedly, he had done such shameless things outside and even had a son! She had seen Tian Jinduo's jokes at the beginning, but she didn't expect that she would become a joke in the end.

Taohong lowered her head in grievance and coaxed her son.

Not long ago, Tao Hong couldn't stand the hard life with Cheng Qian, so she found an opportunity to say in front of some people that her child was Tian Jinduo's, and asked Tian Jinduo to take them in. The result was naturally not what she wanted, but she was scared and retreated with some tricks, and she dared not to get involved again. For Tian Jinduo's sake, Ji He wanted to find out the truth about this matter. This time there was another child, so he would trace the source based on the child's appearance.

The reason why Ji He followed the child's appearance to find the person who bullied Tao Hong in the past was because the child's appearance gave him a familiar feeling, and the child looked like Ji Xiao. In the end, he asked Tao Hong to deceive Ji Xiao, but Tao Hong had no choice. She just wanted to find someone to rely on to live a life without worries, even if that person was the biological father of her most hated child, so she went and really deceived him. In

this way, everyone finally knew that Ji Xiao was the one who took advantage of Tao Hong in the past. After Ji Shun, Ji Xiao once again made his family be cursed and despised. Tao Hong also entered Ji Dacai's house, and her son also entered the house.

Tao Hong felt aggrieved. She hadn't had a few days of good life, but Ji Dacai's family encountered such a thing. Does God really dislike her so much? Why is she always so unlucky?

"Sister, you can't say that to me. If I were a jinx, could I have given birth to a son for the Ji family? This family was unlucky enough before I even got married. What does it have to do with me?"

"Why is it none of your business? You went to live with that Cheng guy, and Cheng guy became like this now? You are a husband-killer, whoever you come into contact with will be killed!" Zhou Guihua scolded.

Jin Cuiniang said, "Okay, stop arguing, sister-in-law, didn't you say you were feeling unwell? I see you are in good spirits, why don't you go and take care of your mother-in-law? You haven't been filial to your mother-in-law for a while."

Zhou Guihua said, "Who said I'm not feeling well? I'm having a headache because of this bitch!"

Jin Cuiniang was so angry when she saw Zhou Guihua covering her forehead and pretending to be dizzy and letting Ji Xiaoyu help her in.

Taohong said, "Second sister-in-law, don't be angry. I'll go accompany mother, you go and cook."

"Little bitch! Didn't you just give birth to a son? What's the big deal!"

Jin Cui Niang cursed in a low voice when she saw Taohong carrying the child to Feng's house. Although she felt relieved to see her eldest sister-in-law being so angry with Taohong, it didn't mean that she liked Taohong. The way Taohong entered this family was not glorious, which made the family embarrassed. She was already criticized when she went out, and now she didn't dare to go out because of Taohong's affairs. What annoyed her the most was that Taohong brought her son home. Ji Dashan had just died, and the mountain that was pressing on her head had just been removed, and another one came. Thinking of the dissatisfied look that Ji Shun gave her when he saw Ji Xiaoyou holding his son, how could Jin Cui Niang not hate Taohong?

☆ 146. Chapter 146 The Finale

Chapter 146 The Ending

Ji Xiao and Ji Shun were finally cleared of suspicion and released. Both of them lost a lot of weight and were covered with wounds. Ji Shun was weaker and fell seriously ill as soon as he returned home. He almost died. The family had spent all their money on them. They also spent all their money on their treatment and sold some land. In the end, the family had less land than before they bought the land. Ji Xiu'er was not released

. She and Jiang Kang were taken to the capital together, along with Ji Jun and Ji Qiao.

When Feng heard that Ji Xiu'er was going to be taken to the capital, she cried and made a fuss with her mouth twisted, but Ji Dacai roared and frightened her so much that she dared not cry. However, a mouthful of phlegm got stuck in her throat. She opened her eyes wide and looked at the wives in front of her, wanting them to save her. However, Jin Cui Niang only said some nice things and advised her not to make a fuss, but did not move forward. Tao Hong directly said that the child was crying too loudly and went out with the child in her arms.

Feng died just like that, and she didn't close her eyes until she died.

Jin Cui Niang thought that the old woman was finally dead, and she didn't have to serve her anymore. The most important thing was that she didn't have to worry about someone saying that not having a son meant the end of the family line. Don't think she didn't know that the old woman wanted Ji Shun to find a woman to give birth to a son. She could let Tao Hong, that bitch, into the family, but who knows if she would find another woman for Ji Shun in the future? After all, she could even let a woman like Tao Hong into the family. For the sake of her grandson, God knows what kind of trouble this old woman would make! It would be peaceful if she died. With her own ability, was she afraid that Ji Shun couldn't control Ji Shun?

Zhou Guihua was also very relieved, wondering why the old woman didn't die earlier. If she had died earlier, maybe their family wouldn't have fallen to this point!

Ji Xiao and Ji Shun also felt relieved about Feng's death, because Feng's death would save them a lot of money. Feng was sick now, and she had to spend money, and someone had to serve her, which was a waste of labor. Moreover, they did not blame Feng in their hearts. If Feng had not been so unwilling to tolerate Ji He, perhaps their family would be in a different situation now. They would not think that they also did not tolerate Ji He. They would only think that they listened to Feng. If Feng treated Ji He well, they would not treat Ji He badly. Therefore, everything was Feng's fault.

Even Ji Dacai felt relieved after being sad about Feng's death, but he seemed to have aged all of a sudden. In

the current situation of Ji Dacai's family, Feng's funeral was very simple. Almost no one came to their house. In the end, the funeral was done quietly.

In Deshui Village, Zhang was talking to Madam Zheng about Feng.

"This person, really can't be too ruthless." Zhang sighed, thinking that Feng had been strong all her life and did things very ruthlessly, but in the end she ended up like this. If she had not been so ruthless, even if she had retained a little affection for Ji He, with the kindness and righteousness of Ji He, how could she let her biological mother end up so miserably?

Madam Zheng nodded again and again. After observing her son-in-law for the past few days, she was really satisfied with him. She felt that he was better than the young talents she had seen in the capital. He was capable and gentle, and he was good at both literature and martial arts. Although his family background was not good, it was rare that he could rely on himself to have such a family business because of his poor family background. The most important thing was that he was good to her Xiaoyu!

Love the house and love the dog. Madam Zheng was already very satisfied with Ji He. Because he was Zhang Xiaoyu's husband, she loved him even more. She didn't like Ji Dacai's family very much. Now that she knew that Feng was dead, she felt that her death was a bargain for her.

"These evil people will not have a good end. It's not that they won't be punished, but the time has not come yet!"

Madam Zheng said with a smile, thinking that Feng was dead, and the rest of Ji Dacai's family would not be able to live a good life. The woman named Taohong brought her child to their house, making the family more lively. If Cha had one more person, it would definitely be more lively, right? I heard that the Shuang'er named Zhang Lan had an affair with Ji Dacai's second son, so let him go to Ji Dacai's house! Humph, the Shuang'er named Zhang Lan is not a good person either. After she heard about Zhang Lan falling down the stairs in Ji He's restaurant, she guessed the Shuang'er's intention. It was really a death wish for her to dare to have the idea of ​​​​taking advantage of her son-in-law!

Zhang Lan had already begun to retreat after seeing so many things happen in Ji Dacai's family. He thought about just making do with his life in Zhang's family, but he didn't know that his future had been arranged by someone because of his previous sinister intention.

Ji He didn't feel anything about Feng's death. If he had to say what he felt, it was that Feng deserved it.

Zhang Xiaoyu knew that Ji He had let go of everyone in Ji Dacai's family, and now he was even more certain.

The husband and wife didn't talk about this matter anymore, but talked about another matter, which was going to the capital.

After Zheng Ze finished his official business, he was going back to Beijing. Duke Zheng's family had been away from Beijing for a while. The emperor's birthday was next month, so they also needed to go back, so they discussed with Ji He and the others to let them go to Beijing together. Madam Zheng said that even if they did not plan to settle down in Beijing, they would go back to get to know their family and wait until they had lived there enough before returning.

Ji He and Zhang Xiaoyu were considering it. Of course, they both wanted to go to Beijing to take a look. Although they were reluctant to leave, they could come back at any time, so they would not want to go to Beijing because they were homesick. The reason why Zhang Xiaoyu hesitated was because of Xiao Pu Tao. The child was still young. What if he got sick on the way? Even if he was not used to the local climate, it would be difficult to deal with it. Ji He was not worried. With Lingquan, what was there to be afraid of? But he couldn't tell Zhang Xiaoyu.

Ji He decided that he would never tell Zhang Xiaoyu about Lingquan in his life. It was not because he did not trust him, but because the secret of Lingquan was too important. It was a treasure and very precious, but at the same time it was also a secret that had to be kept strictly confidential, otherwise it might bring disaster. He was nervous enough alone, and there was no need for another person. Ji He hoped that Zhang Xiaoyu would live a relaxed and happy life in this life without having to bear any heavy burden.

Ji He told Zhang Xiaoyu that there would be solutions to his concerns, and with him, everything could be assured. When

Zhang Xiaoyu heard Ji He's assurance, his worries disappeared. He thought, yes, with Ji He, there was nothing to worry about.

Ji He and Zhang Xiaoyu decided to go to the capital.

The Zheng family was very happy, but they had not been happy for a few days, and a piece of news destroyed Ji He and Zhang Xiaoyu's decision to go to the capital.

Zhang Xiaoyu was going to have another baby, and this time it was two!

It was not easy for Shuang'er to give birth to a baby, and two at a time. Immediately, everyone around Zhang Xiaoyu was nervous. How could they dare to let him take a long car to the capital again? Just stay at home honestly!

Zhang Xiaoyu was also surprised and happy, he was going to give birth to another baby for his Ah He! Thinking of having two more babies like Little Grape, he was excited, not worried or afraid of being pregnant with twins, and vowed to give birth to both children safely.

"Little Grape, Little Grape, this name is so good! It really means having many children!"

Madam Zheng hugged Little Grape, kissed his little face, and teased him that he was going to have a younger brother.

Little Grape didn't understand anything yet, and kept laughing. There were two dimples on his chubby white face, not to mention how cute it was, which made Madam Zheng kiss him several times. Madam

Zheng wanted to stay and take care of Zhang Xiaoyu, and she didn't even want to go to the emperor's birthday banquet, but was persuaded by Zhang Xiaoyu to go back to the capital.

"Mother, if you are worried about me, just come back. I am really fine."

"My dear Xiaoyu, I really don't want to leave you."

Madam Zheng held Zhang Xiaoyu in her arms, thinking that she gave birth to such a sensible child, but she did not raise him. She felt very uncomfortable just thinking about it, and wanted to give him everything she had. She had already told Duke Zheng and his two sons that all her property would belong to Zhang Xiaoyu, and they agreed, and also said that they would give Xiaoyu many things in the Duke's Mansion. But even so, she still felt it was not enough.

Duke Zheng knew that Madam Zheng was reluctant to leave, and told her that he would be back soon. This time, they must watch Xiao Yu give birth to a child safely.

Madam Zheng was happy.

Duke Zheng and his family left, and Ji Qing also went with them. He was going to study at the academy in the capital. Because the test questions were leaked, the autumn test was repeated. Ji Qing passed the test, but his ranking was not very high. But he was indeed smart. The Zheng family admired him very much and promised to write a recommendation letter for him to study at the academy in the capital, so that he could directly take the spring test in the capital next year, and he would be more confident of passing it in one try.

Ji Dafa's family naturally wanted it, and of course they couldn't let go of such a good opportunity. They immediately packed Ji Qing's luggage and asked him to go with them.

Knowing that Ji Qing was going to the capital with the Zheng family, I don't know how many people were envious and jealous, and then there were more people who tried to get along with Ji Dafa's family, thinking that even if they couldn't curry favor with Ji and them, it would be fine if they could get along with Ji Dafa's family. Maybe they would have a chance to enter the capital in the future!

After sending his parents and brothers away, Zhang Xiaoyu was a little depressed. Although they had only been together for a while, they were so good to him. Zhang Xiaoyu, who grew up in a family like Zhang Daniu, fully experienced the love and care of his parents and brothers. Fortunately, Ji and Xiao Pu Tao were with him, but his eyes were still red. He held back his tears for the sake of the child in his belly.

Deshui Manor became a little quieter than before, but because Duke Zheng and his men left a lot of guards and servants, the manor was not as empty as before. If someone came here and saw the people here, they would definitely not believe that the owner here was just an ordinary family. They would think that the owner of a wealthy family lived here. The pomp of Deshui Manor finally matched the plaque bestowed by the emperor.

Autumn passed quickly and the weather became cold again.

News came from the capital that the people from the Jingwang Mansion who were taken away from them had their results. The county magistrate and Wang Zhubo were all dead. Ji Jun was involved in the case of leaking the test questions. He was also the son-in-law of the county magistrate. No one believed him when he said he didn't know about the county magistrate. He was exiled and could never be returned. He would not be pardoned. The same was true for Jiang Kang and Ji Qiao. The county magistrate's daughter died of illness. The rest of the people also had a bad ending.

Zhang Cui'e almost cried blind. Both children were killed and sent to such a desolate place. They would never come back in their lifetime. What hope could they have? But she was so heartbroken! She wanted to ask Ji He and them for help, but she couldn't even enter Deshuizhuang. The people there told her that if she went again, she would be polite. She didn't dare to go again. She could only keep asking Zhang Yu'e and Zhang, but because she had offended them so badly before, she couldn't ask for help at all.

Ji Dasheng took Zhang Cui'e back and locked her up.

Ji told Ji Dasheng that she would have to rely on Zhang Lan in the future and asked him to help Zhang Lan.

Zhang Lan is no longer the husband of the Zhang family. His affair with Ji Shun broke out. The thing is that he is pregnant, but the news that Zhang Liang cannot conceive due to injury has somehow spread. The news that Zhang Lan had an affair with Ji Shun has also spread. Naturally, people say that the child in his belly is Ji Shun's. Seeing that the matter was exposed, the Zhang family was unwilling to raise other people's children, so they divorced Zhang Lan and sent her back home.

Ji Shun wanted Zhang Lan to marry him. He wanted a son so much. His eldest brother had lost a son, and now he has another son. He can even have a woman like Tao Hong, so why can't he have Zhang Lan? As long as he has a son, he will be happy! He didn't even care about Jin Cui Niang crying, making a fuss, and hanging herself. Later, it was Jin Cui Niang who said that it might not be a son. If it wasn't a son, what was the use? It was good for a Shuang'er to have a child once. If Zhang Lan was allowed to marry him, and the child was not a son, wouldn't it be a waste to feed two mouths? Ji Shun thought about delaying it.

Zhang Lan was not happy about it. She thought that her reputation was ruined and she had to live with Ji Shun, so she did everything she could to get into Ji's house.

Ji told Ji Dasheng that now they could only rely on Zhang Lan. Whether Zhang Lan stayed at home or entered Ji Dacai's house, they had to help Zhang Lan.

Ji Dasheng still went to find Ji Dacai. First, as Ji said, their family really had to rely on Zhang Lan in the future. Second, he didn't want to let this matter drag on. The longer it dragged on, the more embarrassing it would be!

In the end, Zhang Lan still entered Ji Dacai's house, but Zhang Lan was afraid that Jin Cui Niang would harm him, so he ran back to her parents' home every day. But even so, he still couldn't keep the baby in his belly. He didn't know whether it was because it was not easy for Shuang'er to give birth to a child, or whether it was really Jin Cui Niang who harmed him as he said. Anyway, Ji Shun beat Jin Cui Niang for this, and Jin Cui Niang fought with Ji Shun, and finally injured Ji Xiaoshi, who was disfigured.

"Alas, Ji Xiaoshi's disfigurement is still a light matter, but it's a pity for Xiaoyu." Zhang sighed.

"What happened to Ji Xiaoyu?" Zhang Xiaoyu asked. He was now resting in peace and taking care of the baby. He liked to listen to what was happening outside. He kept asking Zhang. If she didn't tell him, he would say that the baby in his belly wanted to hear it. He also asked Xiaoren to continue telling him.

After Zhang finished talking about Ji Shun's side, she started talking about Ji Xiao's side. It was even more messy and thrilling!

Ji Xiaoyu actually felt resentful because her father was increasingly partial to Taohong and her son, and was not as good to the three of them as before. She found an opportunity to suffocate Taohong's son to death. Zhou Guihua wanted to take the blame for her daughter, but failed. Ji Xiaoyu was arrested, but she was young and would not be sentenced to death. Instead, she was sold to be the most miserable and tiring official slave. Zhou Guihua was mentally ill because of this incident. Fortunately, there was Ji Xiaoxiang to take care of her.

"Xiaoxiang seemed to have grown up and become sensible all of a sudden. She knelt down and begged Ji Dacai, so that Ji Xiao did not drive Zhou Guihua out of the house, but the life of the mother and daughter was difficult." Zhang said. "I don't know what will happen to Xiaoxiang's child in the future. Her father is so unreasonable now. He just wants Taohong to give him another son. He wants to sell his daughter! But if that happens, Zhou Guihua will probably kill their whole family!"

Zhang Xiaoyu touched her belly and thought that it was really possible. Zhou Guihua had already lost two children. She definitely couldn't afford to lose a third child.

After Zhang Xiaoyu's belly grew bigger, it was also the New Year. There was laughter and joy in the warm house. Everyone was discussing the New Year at home.

Mumu had already given birth to a son, and Ji Lan was about to give birth. Looking at the fat son born by Xiao Pu Tao and Mumu, Ji Lan was also looking forward to the little thing in her belly. Whether it was a son or not, he liked it. Jiang Ping and Jiang Wanguan also said that whether it was a son or not, they all liked it.

When the first snow fell, Ji Lan went into labor and gave birth to a son, which made everyone very happy.

Zhang Xiaoyu was also very happy after hearing the good news. He thought it was great. Everyone was living well and would be very happy in the future.

"Ah He, Xiao Yu, Duke Zheng and the others are here! They said they want to celebrate the New Year together!"

Aunt Tian's voice rang out outside, full of joy. Zhang

Xiaoyu stood up immediately upon hearing this, and Ji He hurriedly held Xiao Pu Tao in one hand and supported him with the other hand, asking him to go slower.

Ji He and Zhang Xiaoyu lifted the curtain and went out, and saw Duke Zheng and his group coming over, all with smiles on their faces. Zheng Yuan even stretched out two fingers to Ji He, made a victory gesture, and made a drinking gesture, and his lips silently said two words, "Imperial Wine!"

Ji He knew that Zheng Yuan meant that the wine he brewed was loved by the emperor and had been named Imperial Wine, which meant that the golden age of his career had arrived.

Zhang Xiaoyu also understood what this meant, and the bright smile on his face became even more dazzling, and he was really happy for Ji He.

Ji He looked at Zhang Xiaoyu's smile, then at his chubby, fair and tender son in his arms, thinking that Zhang Xiaoyu's life was complete, and his own life was complete as well. In this life, the luckiest thing for him was not having Lingquan, but having Zhang Xiaoyu, their children, and this family.
